PEDESTRIAN MATCH AGAINST TIME.
Mauna., the celebrated Yorkshire Pedestrian, who started
on Wednesday from the Crdwn and Barley-Mow, Gray's-Inn-
lane, to perform a match to Baldock and back, being a distance
of 75 miles, for three successive days, had yesterday performed
his undertaking precisely as follows :
First Day.—He started at twelve o'clock, and arrived at the
White Hart, Stevenage, being a distance of 31?, miles, at half.
past seven o'clock, and proceeded on to the White Lion. Bal-
dock (the extent of his journey), being 6 miles more, where he
made by half-past nine, and immediately returned to Steven-
age, where he got a little before eleven. He soon afterwards
went to bed, and slept until three o'clock ;at half-past three he
started towards town, where he arrived on Thursday at forty
minutes after ten o'clock.
Second Day.—He started at a quarter past 12 o'clock, and
arrived at Stevenage exactly at a quarter past eight o'clock in
the evening completely drenched with rain. He then im-
mediately stripped off his wet clothes, took refreshment and
went to bed, and slept until one. yesterday morning—he
then proceeded to Baldock, and arrived there at half-past,two
o'clock. The landlord having gone to bed, Wright called
him up, refreshed himself, and instantly commenced his
return to Town. He arrived at Stevenage at four o'clock ;
he here stopped ten minutes, and got to Barnet five
minutes before nine ; he took breakfast, and intended
!to stop there three quarters of an hour; but on some
friends arriving from town, he found himself half an hour out
of his calculation of time; and after stopping 20 minutes, he
proceeded on his journey ; he was greeted by a numerous as-
semblage of spectators at the Barley-Mow yesterday, 25 mi-
nutes before twelve o'clock. He started off, after taking a com-
fortable dinner of beef-steaks, exactly .at thirty-five minutes
past twelve o'clock, amidst the same acclamations which greeted
his arrival.
When Wright found by his friends, yesterday morning,
that he had missed his time, he began to hurry himself be-
tween Barnet and town, and thereby strained his right thigh,
which made him come limping in. But notwithstanding his
backers and friends seem certain of his success, as well as per-
sons in general, as the betting which was five to two
against him at starting, is now become, leaving out his lame-
ness and the badness of the weather, from such great odds to
evens ; indeed, amongst the numerous assemblage of betting
men yesterday at the Barley-Mow, there was not one who
would take a shilling, even betting, against him ; nor were there
but a few trifling bets made at all, and these in his favour. He
is a strong bony man, 58 years of age, lOst. 101 b. weight, and
5 feet 6 inches high.

BISHOP, the Composer, is sufficiently recovered
from his late indisposition to complete the new
Opera, called " Maid Marian," and which is to
be performed for the first time on Tuesday next.
