DEBBY, April 6.—On Monday last Heenan
arrived at the Trent Inn, Trent Lock, near Sawley,
in Derbyshire, for the purpose of continuing his
training exercises, under the 'superintendence of
M'Donald, of London, and Cusick, of New York.
He had been previously disturbed by the police
authorities at Salisbury,.Bath, Bedford, and Not-
tingham, and Trent Lock was selected owing to its
secluded position; but. on Thursday night, at ten
o'clock, several of the Derbyshire police arrived
there and guarded Trent Inn all night. The house
was
,tafinythoe'clock on
police
went in and arrested
a Mr. Hughes, a friend of Heenan's, from New
(Goodopened Friday
York, thinking he was the champion. Heenan
heard of this, and left the house by means of a side
door, and ran along the canal bank for two miles
without his shoes. His feet were much cut and
bruised, and on his arriving at the next Lock
House he knocked up the inmates, who let him in,
and he went into a bedroom upstairs. He there
wrote a note to M'Donald, requesting him to bring
his shoes, as he could not proceed further without ,
them. This note was intercepted by the police,
who, up to that time, believed that Mr. Hughes
was the man they were in search of. They imme-
diately proceeded to the Lock House, and demanded
to go upstairs to search the bedroom ; but the lady
of the house declined to allow this unless a
search warrant was produced, and Superintendent
Shaw started off to Sawley, to procure one from a
magistrate living there, and left four policemen
watching the house. Heenan determined to leave,
and once more endeavoured to escape, but was
chased from the back door of the house across the
fields, where, owing to his lameness, he was over-
taken by the police. He immediately surrendered
himself, and stated that it was net his intention to
offer further resistance, that he had been fairly
hunted down, and he did not wish to break the
laws of the country by resisting the police. He
was placed in a vehicle and drivEn to the Town-
hall at Derby, where he arrived at 11 o'clock on
kllood Friday. His friends at Nottingham were
immediately telegraphed for to bail him out. In
the n., eanwhile several gentlemen •living in Derby
expressed their desire to provide for Heenan's com-
fort, and availed himself of their hospitality.
.great annoyance at being run down
He expresced
in the manner had, but he hoped his intended
opponent would "fit. more fortunate, as he (Heenan)
did not at all relish his confinement. He stated
that he had never beets .arrested, fined, or suffered
an hour's imprisonment in his life. Heenan ex-
pressed his gratitude at' the hoainitality shown him
by many gentlemen in Derby, ana spoke in high
terms of the kindness he had receiv.ed from Mr.
Hilton, the head constable of the Derby Police.
Heenan will be brought up for bail tomorrow
morning.

(From Bell's Life.)
The ink was scarcely dry with which we w."Ote
the long article below on the match for the Cham-
pionship, when we received a telegraphic despatch
from a sportsman at Derby to the follogtving effect :
—" Friday, April 6. They have just apprehended
John Heenan at Trent Lock, and got him in Derby
lock-up 20 minutes ago." This announcement na-
turally excited our surprise and vexation, espe-
cially when we came to consider the spot where the
arrest took place. We instantlycommun:cated the
fact to Mr. Wilkes, as the proper representative of
Heenan in London. The indignation of that gen-
tleman was not less than our own, and he and his
friends all agreed with us that if any persons were
to blame in the matter they were Heenan himself
and his companions, Mr. Falkland and Jack Mac• I
don ald, Rumours had been spread that Tom Sayers
intended to obtain the arrest 41 his opponent, in
in order that he might retain the belt without
another contest, but such an accusation as this was
as warmly scouted by all the American gentlemen
as by ourselves.
Why Falkland or Macdonald should have so-
leplaces in England, for the
training Derby,
quartersoofe
their
man
we know not, nor
can we possibly conceive. Had it been their deli-
berate intention to have their man arrested they
could not have gone to a better place to select their
object. It is only a few weeks since three men were
tried at the assizes in that very town for being con-
cernedin a prize-fight. In Derby gaol were Tom
Harry Poulson, Callaghan, and others
ePoandfide confined
dfor many months, for a riot in connection
with prize-fight, and the whole county has long
been a
known as the most dangerous place for OW
members of the P. R. to select for their sports.
It is not impossible that the matter may yet be
amicably settled, and that
the fight may yet come
off—although, of course, it is impossible to bring it
off on the day originally fixed. We would advise
both men to still adhere to their exercise as strictly
as possible, and not make this affair the excuse for
a break cut. Both seem anxious for a mill, and no
stone will be left unturned by the London friends
of Heenan to bring about a satisfactory settlement.
We

f
Lock. In the neighbourhood of Bedford, at Stilton,
escapes
and other places he only escaped by a miracle. • It
is a pity his friends did not take the advice offered
them by Langlaain and others, as to the selection of
training qtiarters. A subsequent message says
Heenan is not in gaol, but in custody of the superin-
tendent of police, awaiting bail. This, we hope,
will be quickly forthcoming, to enable him to leave
the county.
