BOXING AT COLNBROOK.

Of all 'the days play in the fighting line of
businesi our informant does not recollect so good a one as that
which occurred yesterday. The immediate match was.between
the brave Ned Turner and P. Inglir, for 100 sovereigns aside.
The ring was formed in a large meadow, and was but thinly
attended. It is needless to descant upon the merits of Turner
as a boxer. He who placed the in'vulnerability. of Scroggins
upon the shelfL.the man who fought so gallantly with Randall
and with Martin, was a prize tit himself.. Inglis, 'a bold ad-
venturer, of about hiy toirop4ry's weight; was only once a win-
ner, Upon, first trial. 'sBcmidg were Mattrice belay and
~11Igenzie for Inglis, and Josh'. 'Hudson and.Padaington Jones
for Turner. Betting 6t04 on Inglis, from youth, at twenty-
one, and no disparagement in weight..
Round I. Turner
.1 1"
placed the grit, hit upon his adversary's
breast, (heavy) through his
guard, away, and floored his
adversary, as if shot, with the left hand, fighting as usual, with
the right foot in advance.-(49udci-wering, and even betting:)
2. Turner placed a right-handed hit upon his adversary's
pimple, broke ground;
and succeeded in the same stratagem.
Inglis returned, &warfront distance: Turner placed another
.
hit upon. his adversary's throat. A rally, with much determi-
nation, followed, in which the science of Turner strongly pre.
railed. Turner broke grOund, and had it all his own way; as
-Inglis could not reach him. It was a long round, and the fore-
head of Inglis, from a severe laceration, dr'Opped claret in
abundance. Turner did as he liked, and threw his adversary
3. Turner out fought his adversary, and hit him heaVy by
a swinger up with the left hand. Inglis was too good to be de-
nied, and he placed a good body hit. Turner fell in a twist.

4.- Turner had this round as all his own, and with both hands

in his adversary's frontispiece kept the claret upon a regular
flow. It spirted over those nearest the ropes, and the only
.
question was will Ned's stamina last A doubtful case, thought
some of his admirers: Turner went down worse for toil weakly.
5. Inglis made a turn in the fight by making.sorte exchanges.
Turner went down weak and became a piper. Betters silent.
6. Inglis hit his adversary, but not home, and Turner went
down weak.

7 and 8. Turner was distressed, but his opponent could not
reach him.

9. A short round ; Turner uncorked the claret in another
part of the olfactory organ, and fell from weakness.
10. Inglis got exhausted, and, a gay. round took place; in a
manly rally, Turner's science gave him the best, but he fell
from exhaustion.
11. A sine qua non. Both done.up for the minute.
12. Turner drew fresh claret in torrents from every organ,
and fell weak,

13, 14, ancils. The bravery of Turner in distress was alike
admiration at the Manner in which the gallant Inglis took his
punishment. Turner kept the claret flowing, but there were
no symptoms of denial to it, but he was lighting line against
superior stamina. His hands were.one mass of claret from the
hardness of Inglis.
16.-' Turner made two of the finest scientific hits with one
hand, delivered with the second motion, over seen, but he fell.
Until the 20th round the question *as, whether Inglis would
stay to get punishment. In this round be was a blinker on the
left side, but there was nothing like a negative about him.
The 4fith round ended a most gallant-fight, when Inglis was
declared the winner. Up to the last .round Turner bad the
best of fighting, but went down weak at the end of each ; and
it was not until the last touch of manhood had left him, that his
seconds gave in for him. The head. of Inglis was a disfigure.
ment rarelyseen, but his bravery was too undeniable. Among
those whose admiration was excited by the manhood of the de-
cayed Ned Turner, had a feeling of. Sympathy for the goodness
of his rival. The battle lasted one hour and eighteen minutes,
and it was all fighting.

REID THE CHELSEA ASPIRER AND COOPER THE 0 YPSXY.
—We have no room for a detail of this manly battle, which was
one of those stopped in Passion Week. It was for a purse of
20 sovereigns, and a trial worth 100. Cooper led at going off
in fine gay fighting for six rounds.. lie floored Reid in the first
round, but in the- latter part of the battle he was pinked in
every round with his adversary's right hand, and at the expira..
tion of 28 minutes, he was obliged to yield the palm of vic-
tory to a better man. Cooper has a fault in not looking after
the delivery of his blows.

Langan arrived in Dublin on Monday last; to the joy of his
friends and the Fancy. lie was surrounded by crowds as he
passed through the streets, who cheered their hero ; he was at
ldngth obliged to. use a carriage, in order to escape the pres-
sure of friendship.- Ile is expected to hold his at the na-
tional tavern in Fownes's-street, The Erin, for the few nights
he remains in town. lle shortly proceeds to his training exer-
cise.—(Dradin Journal.)

OF CHURCHTOWN p4l;:ylAc7rts.

- .
Coif, APR:IL 13.—At nine o'clock Mr.Serjeant
LEFROY took the place of Mr. Justic,e MARV:Ns, who went
into City Records, in the County Criminal Court. The chal-.
lenge by the,Court and prisoners were very numerous.
Timothy Nrosnehan, Patrick .11f4Au1iffe, and' 7?ios._Lillisr
were indicted for the murder of Hugh Coligan of Churchton,
on the 31st January 1822, and for setting fire. to the Church-
town Barracks ort. the same day.---Guilty Death. •

THE EXECUTION.
These men were executed on Thursday, at Gallows Green.
On their arrival at.the gallows, they knelt down, each attended
by a Clergyman, and after reading their prayer books for .a
abort time, the Rev. Mr, O'Connor called on the Sub-Sheriff,
(Henry Bennett, Esq.) •and said that one of the unfortunate
men had a few words to say to him. • The Sheriff came forward,
and Al'Auliffe said--" I am guilty, Sir, of the crime for which
I am about to suffer. I was at the attack, but having been
wounded early in the affray, I returned home, and it was after-
werds the barrack was burned, and the policemen killed—but,
I acknowledge my guilt the same as if I was there the whole
time. I am sorry for it now, and the only reparation I
Can make in this world is, to acknowledge it freely, which
I now do, with all my
,heart, and would wish that I could
persuade others to do th same, and take warning by our un-
happy fate—l also irgive all the world, and beg the'prayers of
all persons present." He delivered hiingelf in a clear manner,
and repeated several of the sentences over again, and seemed
desirous thatit should be known to every one. Brosnelian, who
was next' to him, and heard this declaration,. then said, "
acknowlcge freely my guilt,- I was there, and hope God will
forgive me." The njee,unforttinate man, Lillis, in cOnSequence
of the strong Olibi made out for him, said in general terms that
" as the other two made declarations; there was no occasion for
him to do the same." The three then spoke to the Sheriff on
some family matters, which he promised to have arranged for
thenr, and on this assurance they seemed perfectly satisfied.—
The • fatal preparations having been completed, the execu-
tioner was in the act of adjusting the rope een Brosnehan,
previous to his reaching the drop, when one 'of the Clergy-
men desired him to 'desist fora moment, to which the culprit
replied; quite resigned, " Let him, Sir, it does not matter."—
lie .
then ascended the ladder to the platfortn, semi looking
around. at the dense mass of people, in a haul and audible
manner implored their prayers. 1114Auliffe- next ascended
with a firm' step, and the executioner drew the cap over Bros-
nellan's face, and the same with 1114 A uliffe, when the latter eaid,
Wait tilleve. take a farewell, and kiss each ether, .which we
will do when he comes up," 'alluding to Lillis, who still re-
trained on his knees in prayer. Both pushed the caps off their
faces, and remained praying fervently with the Clergyman,
until Lillis joined them. - The three then shook hands and
kissed each ether, and the caps were drawn over their facei.
31'Anliffe, who was in the centre, held both their hands, on
which Brosnehan took away. his hand and said, " his better not
to hold hanas, as it might give us more pain ;" while uttering
the:le words the drop gave way, and this world was closed on
them for over. APAuliffe died without a struggle, but Lillis
and. Brosnehan suffered much,- particularly the latter. They
were three strong men, and in the awful trial of nature SUF•
tamed themselves with great nerve. It is a remarkable feature
in this case, that Brosnehan and ill'Auliffe, three weeks be-
fore their execution, were working in obscurity as labourers in
London.

Additional Particulars of the Accident off
KANE' Wharf.—The bodieS of two men, an in.
fant, and-two- women, were yesterday and this
morning found, and have been all owned. There
are now missing, Mr. and Mrs. Sissens, of Horn's
Court, Limehouse, and a young woman who was
or the party of Mr. S. A tturSe,Whohad an in-
fant in her arms, -with great presence of mind, en
perreiying their danger, threw it into'the barge
"against which they struck, by which means its
life was saved. Another boat was _upset off
Deptford Creek yesterday, but fortunately no
lives were lost.

Extract of a letter from the Agent of Lloyd's at .111ernel,
dated April 3 :—" For the information of the trade at large, I
can acquaint -you that our Government has given directions
to put British vessels on 'a footing of perfect equality with
those of this country, and which will commence on the sth
instant."

At the Duke of Richmond's last audit- the good
old custom was revived of the tenantry dining together ii the
grelt hall At Goodwood. His Grace (than whom a kinder-
hearted and, more liberal landlord dOes not exist) sat' at the
ltea.d,'and his brother, Lord George Lennox, at the lower end
of the table:

Kennington Common has beeb frequente'd by a
numerous assemblage of respectable visitors to witness the vari-
ous groupei "nlCricketers and trap-ball players during the Holi-
days.. The Magistrates of the Surrey District very wisely issued
placards to prevent the " blackguardism ". which formerly dis-
graced that neighbourhood on Good iriday ; and the Police
were on the alert to prevent the depredations which were for-
merly committed under the pretence of opening the season with
the usual gymnit.stic exercises. . ,

more park, discovered several immense sized bones, lying in
regular order, and traced out the spine and ribs to a length of 70
feet. Except a few, however, the bones crumbled to powder on
long exposure to the atmosphere, owing most likely to the
dry matrix in which they were incased. It is certainly very
remarkable, that, in the comparatively few situations where ex-
cavations are made on the banks of the Forth, the remains of
these huge inhabitants of the deep should occur; and it seems
highly probable that a great number of these animals have
been stranded about the same period, when the river flowed
aboVe the present level corn fields.—(Edinburgh Star.)
On Saturday last an attack was made upon
Mr. Edward Gardiner, an opulent builder, in Elm-tree-road,
. Mr. Gardiner and one of his workmen were
quarrelltng,yespecting some work the latter had neglected to
perform, sad,. words growing high, Mr. Gardiner struck
him a slight blow. At this time they- were standing in
the Grove. Jenkins instantly ran home, armed himself with
a gun, loaded :with small shot, and returned towards the
spot where lie had left his master standing, and, when he
had reached him within about fifteen feet, he levelled the
piece at Mr. G. and discharged it, the contents lodging in his
breast and face. The unfortunate man instantly fell to
the ground, and was raised' by some persons who came to
his assistance, by whom he was conveyed home. Surgical
aid was procured for him. Jenkins, as soon as he had
carried his design into execution,- repaired to the Police
Office, and procured an assault warrant against his
master for the blow lie had struck him. - The warrant was
placed in the 'hands of an officer, and made returnable on
Monday, when Jenkins was in attendance to prefer his
complaint. On the officer going to the house of Mr. Gar-
diner to execute the warrant, he found the unfortunate
man almost breathing his last, and his physician and fa-
mily around him. The particulars of the transaction were
told the officer, who returned to the police office, where Jen-
kins was waiting, anxious for the arrival of his master, and
communicated the case to the Alagiitrate; who ordered Jen-
kinii into custody, and lie was committed to the New Prison,
Clerkenwell, till the fate of Mr. Gardiner is known. On in-
quiry at his house yesterday, we found that little hopes were
entertained of his recovery, upwards of a hundred shots having
perforated his breast.
On Wednesday sennight the
.Mails for Gol-
sple, Helmsdale, Caithness, and Orkney, were stolen from the
coach between Dornock and Golspie. An investigation of the
circumstances is going on, under the direction of one of the
Solicitors of the Post-office.
