• BOXING.
The battle between Dockarty, of pugilistic notes and a Scots
Baker, of the name of Peatiken, the former haviOg been barked
40 guineas to xO ayainst his adversary, wits decided yesterday,
nt I;m4der's Green, on the lfendon-road, in the pretence of a
mi•rellaneous r outpany of several hundreds, from the Duke,
marquis, and Cord, down to the Costermoneers and Kids of the
3%letropolis. Dockarty is. known to the public as a professional
fi!;hter, who was beaten by young Belcher a few weeks since on
Epsom Downs. The Scots Baker, who has recently beaten a
couple of novices, entered the lists with no very favourable omen,
as the result of the contest verified—he had to contend with a
good fighter, in speaking generally of Dockarty, because he
posl/4e,ses, in a certithedegree, a little of every reqiiisite,.and add-
ed to this he was a tried bottom man. The combatants set to
at one o'clock, and bettings were seven to four on Dockarty.
it would not gratify.even the amattur to diail the rounds of
she battle, foraithough Dockarty evidently was not to fighting
condition, his adversary never gave a torts to the bettiog.—
Dockartv had somethhig the best of the first round after the
Baker had made play, and the second round also ended very
materially in DoekartV's favour.—The combatants rallied in
this round and exchanged hits, and whilst thus contending Dock-
arty took most of the fight out of his advers;:ry, by a well-
planted hit at length on the baker's head, which dropped him
dexterously. Bets were offered three to vine, and this odds was
never lessened derieg the combat. Peatiketioften hit. his ad-
verarv, but his blow:, even in vigoar, were inoffensive. He ap-
peared before Dockarty (who never fought ao bad) a greater
novice than even three novices he bad beaten appeared before
him, and in the latter rounds of the battle Ise e:hewed some currish
maveuvres. The Baker had received a hideous black eye in
the second round, and he had some hods, hits. ne gave in after
fighting three quarters of an hour, with Out talking any material
harm, and if not entirely to the sati-faction of hi, friends, he dis-
played more judgment than he had done in any part of the com-
bat. At the day was fixed on for ekgatil pastime SO it finished
with the baiting of the bull.
