THE FANCY-NEAL AND SAM.

The umpires appointed to decide the disputed question
respecting this match—namely, whether the fight was
prevented by " Magisterial interference" or not, and whe-
ther Neal's backers ought to forfeit the battle•money to
Sam—met yesterday and agreed to the nomination of a
referee high in the sporting world, upon whose impartial
judgment every reliance may be placed.
In this discussion two points are involved ; first, whe-
ther the arrest of Neal by the Union Hall officers, by or-
der of Mr. Chambers, the Magistrate, is, according to
the terms of the articles under which the fight was to have
taken place, to be considered " magisterial interference,"
or not? and next, if it is, whether it was in any way
influenced by either Neal or Sam's friends? Should either
party appear to' have induced the obtrusion of the officers,
a forfeit will be declared on the part of the offender. If
it should be decided that the Magistrates did not interfere
at all, of course Neal must forfeit.

Neal will preside at a convivial meeting, at the Castle
Tavern, Holborn,. on Friday eichhig, when harmony and
good humour will be the order of the night.

ACCIDENT.-A MAN AND

W II•E KILLED.

Yesterday inquisition was taken a,
Bf. Thomas'. Ilosilitnl, lielore WM. PA YNE,
the City Crlro:l,r, 10!1!!111:112; the death of Mai
Cornell, aged Co; rogei her with her husbaini,
was run over whil:it crossirg theroad. Wm. John-
son, Pitt•street, Kr,nt-rwril, about five o'clock
in the evening of that Icy k was standing at the
door of the Anchor and Hope, Broad-wall, when
he saw the deceased and her husfiand staggerinir:
across the road intoxicated. There was a cart corn-
ing up immediately behind then-, the road was very
slippery, and they both fell under the wheel of the
cart, which passed over them before the driver, who
was proceeding at a slow rate, could stop his horse.
Witness instantly ran and picked up the deceased,
she groaned dreadfully, and cried our, " Oh Inv
leg;" he looked at her right leg and saw the bloc)]
running from it in a stream, and she was taken to
that Hospital. The deceased's husband was picked
up about the same time by another person, when
his arm was found to be badly broken, and he was
taken on the following day to St. Bartholomew's
Hospital, where he died on Thursday last of a mor-
tification. Mr. H. W. Sutton, one of the Surgeons
of the Hospital, stated that the deceased was brought
there on the evening of that day week. He ex-
amined her right leg, and found a severe:compound
fracture near the aucle ; the bone was so dreadfully
shattered that, as the only chance of saving life, it
became necessary to amputate the limb, which was
accordingly pet formed. She went on well for a
few days, but an unfavourable change subsequently
took place, she declined rapidly, and expired on
Sunday morning.--Verdict " Accidental Death."—•

SHIPWRECK ON THE COAST OF ESSEX,

LOSS OF LIFE.

(Prom the Essex Mercury.)
A wreck of the most distressing nature happened
on the Gunfleet Sand off this coast during the late
heavy gales. A brig called the Craig Elarhie, of
Leith, with a crew of seven men, left Belfast on or
about the 24th day of November last, laden with a
cargo of provisions, bound to the port of London,
the wind at S.S.W., fine weather. Soon after it
changed, when the brig was brought up in the Long
Hope, and continued there for several days. At
length the weather moderated, which induced the
master to proceed on his passage; and when off
the Steeples, ou the coast of Northumberlard, he
encountered a heavy gale at N.E., and lout part of
his sails, bulwark, &c. On the night of the 22d of
December the vessel was aback of Yarmouth Sands,
under double-reefed topsails, wind blowing strong
E.N.E., and thick with snow. At day-light next
morning shock out reefs, and proceeded, and
made the Stink Light about four p.m. of the
same day, wind blowing heavy : elese-reefed the
fore-topsail, and trysail, and double-reefed the main-
topsail, and hove the vessel to; at six
,p.m. the
tide making, the main-top was filled wiCt her head to
the northward, and shortly after she came to the
ground ; the sails were hove back in hopes of getting
her off again; finding it of no use, filled on her in the
hope of forcing her over, but all attempts were use-
less. Lights were hoisted in the main-rigging for
assistance, and the pumps set to work, but the water
gained on them considerably. The crew fearing the
vessel might fall on her broadside, determined on •
launching the boats, but in a few minutes after they
had made them fast alongside, they were dashed to
pieces; soon after the sea began to ►nt.ke a breach
over her in every direction, and it became necessary
for the crew to take to the rigging. Six of
them took the larboard side, whilst the other took
the starboard ; shortly after she fell on that side,
with her sails in the water, which added greatly to
the weight of them, and occasioned both masts and
the bowsprit to break, and washing away the men
on that side. The others were compelled for safety
to hold by the channels, and remained in- that posi-
tion till eight o'clock on the following morning. It
being nearly low water, they were enabled to stand
on part of the deck. At ten o'clock they took to
the channels again, but finding the water likely to
reach them there, they got on the tale-rail, being
the highest part of the wreck from the sea. At one
o'clock the master breathed his last, and was soon
washed overboard; shortly after oae of the crew fol-
lowed, and after him another, leaving only three re-
maining. The mate lashed himself to the rail, but
died soon after from cold, hunger, and fatigue.
The surviving two, who had witnessed the fate of
their late shipmates, were greatly exhausted also,
and soon expected to have shared the same fate, as
night was approaching fast, and the gale still conti-
nuing: luckily, however, the wreck was discovered
by Robert ,Cleave, master of the smack New Union,
of this port, at about three o'clock p.m., and he de-
termined to approach as near as he could, in order
to ascertain whether there were any lives on board;
not being able with his vessel to get sufficiently
near, he proceeded with two of his hands in his
boat, at great risk, through the breakers, and
fancied, as he approached nearer, he could discern
some person on board, and when at the distance of
five hundred yards off, he could proceed no further
with his boat : he then got on the sand up to his
waist in water, giving directions to his compa-
nions to remain in the boat till he should return;
as he approached he could plainly perceive the head
of some persons on board, which made him still
more anxious to get to the wreck. At length he
succeded in reaching within 50 yards of the spot, and
calling loudly, the man on board looked towards him,
when he told him, to use his own words," that he had
come to save his blessed life," but that he could ap-
proach no nearer, and begged the man to throw a
broken spar, or any thing he could get, into the sea,
and cast himself in after, and he would endeavour
to pick him up; the man on board made him no
answer, neither did he attempt to move from where
he was standing. Cleave again reported, that if he
did not do as he?old him, he must leave him, and
accordingly walked away, in hopes that he might in-
duce him to do it; finding he still stood there and
motionless, he again went hack, and urged him, but
with no better success; he then attempted to get to
the ►wreck, but found it impossible On account of the
water; after waiting a short time he determined on
making the attempt though it should cost hint his
life; fortunately he succeeded: the first object he
beheld on getting on board was one of the crew
lying dead; further on another lifeless; and beside
him the man whom he had seen in an exhausted
state. No time was to be lost, as night was draw-
ing near, and taking the man in his arms, he suc-
ceeded in carrying him from the wreck, and placed
him on the sand while he went hack for the other,
whom he was so fortunate as to rescue from a
watery grave. They were both unable to walk; he
therefore was compelled to carry and drag them
along through the water, and by great exertion and
perseverance he reached his boat, and conveyed
them on board his vessel, ar►d proceeded to Wiven-
hoe, where he arrived next morning. For the
courage and intrepidity displayed by the crew, and
more particularly by Robert Cleave, the master of
the New Union, on this, as on former occasions, it
is hoped they may meet with a suitable reward.
The wreck went to pieces shortly after the men
were rescued, and no part of the cargo has been
saved.

Mr. VESEY FITZGERALD was considered to
be a little better yesterday. Mr. PEEL visited the Right

OLDCOURT.—TiIe author of this Work has
evidently derived his materials from the occurrences of
real life, and has shewn an intim ite acquaintance with the
unseen and mysterious workings of the human heart. The
hero, Sir W. n'Aucv, is an admirable portrait of a young
man of fashion of the present day. His education at Ox-
ford—his entrance into the Dragoons—his subsequent ad-
ventures in England and Ireland, and the many dangerous
situations to which- lie was exposed in the American
campaign, are replete with interest.
