BOXING..

HUDSON AND MARTIN.
This battle betacen two men, quite inferior to
Randall and Turner, sturs in the pugilistic hemi-
sphere, took place yesterday on Molesey Hurst.
It is sufficiently important to stole, that they had
,t.•featcd Scroggins, a good man in his day.—
rodeher sod Owen sec led Hudson. and Spring
and Randall officiated for Martin. Our limits will
not allow much observation, and our comments
must nec•es•aarily be short.
'l•he fist round won the fight for Martin, but •
gallant display of courage took place. Martin kept
bitn,c'f cool and collected, and from extraordinary
length Algerined his adversary with • straight left-
hand•d hit. Hudson went up as gallantly to his
adversary's head as • thief would to • stock-
broker's in his own concern ; but there was no non-
sense here. Both tried their best, awl Martini
left hand kept his ■dverary's head in the right
'place. and when he was tired of jobbing at it,
floored him. It is strange to tell, that although
I luch.on was hacked at 6 to 4 to win at setting-to,
tile odds became 2 to 1 on Aladin after the first
round.
The second, third, and fourth, were the only
moods worth teeuraling Martin's talent.
Motion had a turn use the Sth round, hut he had
cone the best of it, although his returns were quick
and good. It ended ill Hudson being beat in
thirty-nine minutes.
Seeeml minor tights took place.

In the last annual report it is dated by Dr. Ash.
!learner. "That the benefit of Vaccination boo been
extended within the year to 3,197 persona; that
one only of the 46,664 eases mantiowed in farmer
idpidla, bee bees since affected with the variolaid
odopliato occurring after Vaccination."
At the Foundling Hospital, Vaccination was in.
traduced nineteen years ago; and we are informed
by Dr. Stanger, that only two ewes of disease.
bearing any tesemblance to Swell Pox, have hithero
occurred in the vaceinsted of that Inatitation.

Mr. Mac Gregor assures us, thus in the great

no case. even of the mildest Small Pox. has ever
occurred after Vaccina►ion. _ . .

Under the immediate direction of the National

oily, and of this large number only five are re-
ported to have been subst-quently affected with
Small Pox ; althou-Ah positive orders are given at
every station to report all such cases as are even
suspected.
This success in London, where the vaccinated
are continually exposed to the contagion of Smart
Pox, is strong evidence in favour of the practice
adopted and inculcated by this Board, and induces
us to believe that a departure from that practice is
one source of the evil which has prevailed in differ-
ent parts of the kmgdoin. -
The great principle of that practice is to affect
the constitution of each individual very cnuytletrly
with the Vaccine Ditease ; and the Bond have
thought it right to direct that Lymph should never
be employed from any vesicle in which the slightest
irregularity or imperfection' coolie observed ; nor
eves, from a reflect vesicle after the erode is
formed; that two punctures he made m each arm,
in order to secure at least three perfect new Iles
that one ire4ielt• on each urn, 0)00(1 be left un-
opened, mitt the Lymph be suffered to be absorb-II
or desiccate. That if the vesicles be accidentally
• broken, or much injured, or if they present any
irregularity, she patient should be carefully ft.
racemoted as at first.

_Yron► extensi►e expe►ience and numerous re-
ports. the Board hare become most earnestly de-
sirous that more, tallier than fewer vesicles should
be produced. W e think it especially wroug to
confide in one vesicle, at:d highly imprudent to
open ; but nu treatment will be 'Metier in cer-
tain constitutions; for twenty-one cases of Small
Pox occouring alter Small Pox, hive been reported
to as within the last twelve mouths, three of winch
were fatal.
