PUGILISM.
HAZELTINE AND BARNASII FOR 50/. A SIDE.— These
members of the corps pvgilistipc met yesterday on
Woking•commou, in the county of Surrey, to settle their
fistic superiority. The men have combatted previously,
when the Westminster lad, Barnash, was the victor.
On the present occasion the athletre were seconded thus
—Hazeltine by Keene and Joe Rowe; Barnash by Hayes
and Ale Donald. The battle, which lasted one hour and
fifty minutes, was of the tamest description; the only
points being made by Hazeltine, who, from the weakness
of Barnash, made his right tell repeatedly on his oppo-
nent's left ear, Barnash's slight flapping hits on the nasal
organ being poor and without influence on the result.
After 30 rounds, of frequent pauses, and tedious cha-
racter, Hazeltine was proclaimed the conqueror; some
of Barnash's warmest adherents having for some time
determined to resign the struggle on his part. In fact,
the sponge was thrown up six rounds before the conclu-
sion, and it was only upon the determined opposition of
Barnash himself that the contest was continued. The
punishment, which was not great on either side, was
pretty evenly balanced.
