PUGILISM.

)3ETWEEN 13RETTLE AND MACE FOR

£2OO A-BIDE.
According to the arrangement •,.:lade by the
referee, these belligerents met yesterdAY
.for the
purpose of renewing hostilities, when the co-
test was brought to a final termination. On t. "
combatants being ordered to meet on Thurs.-
day, the backers of Mace being desirous that
no obstacle should be thrown in the way of bring-
ing the event to an issue, undertook to provide
a conveyance for the men and their friends, and
they deserve credit for their promptitude, by which
interruption was prevented, and the much-impor-
tant event has been concluded. The manner in which
Mace fought on the first day, combined with the
strong lead he took, prepared all for the wanner in
which the contest would ultimately terminate ; in-
deed, there was a pretty general opinion that
Vrettle
would not again enter the ring. In this conjecture
the " knowing ones" proved to be entirely out,
for
Brettle, punctual to time, was at the place of stactr,
in;; indicated by the-referee, and as cheerful as a*
man could be under the circumstances. Mace, on
the other hand, did not appear to be in the least
hurt. In due time the scene of action was reached,
when a debarkation was at once effected. When the
ring was ready, Mace, attended by his seconds, en-
tered, but 20 minutes elapsed before Brettle threw'
his castor into the arena.. In getting ready Bob's
seconds certainly took a little more time than was
requisite, but when the circumstances come to be,
taken into consideration, the " why and wherefore,,
of this needs no comment from us. By five minutes.
past one o'clock Bob's elaborate toilet had been.
completed, the men were conducted to the scratch,,
and left to begin the contest. The same superiority'
that had been displayed by Mace on their first meet-
ing in science, judgment, and general milling ex-
cellence, was again manifested by the Norwichi
champion. The Brum, from the onset, never had a.
chance. Instead of rushing to force the fighting, as:
he had done on Wednesday, Brettle tried to keep
out from his man ; but this alteration of tactics was.
not of any benefit to him, nor did it even enable,
Brettle, as many had imagined it might, to prolong
the contest. Mace, knowing that he had the win-•
ring card in hand, was determined not to lose a.
point by the fresh deal." No sooner had he
steadied himself to business, than he went to his
man in fearless style, got home with both hands,
on the head with stinging severity, confident
that he had his man at all points. Five rounds,.
only occupying seven minutes, were fought ; in.
the last of these again and again getting on.
to his man in a manner that electrified the spec-
tators, until the Brum went down, when Bob's seconds
humanely threw up the sponge. Mace left the ring almost
without a mark, while Brettle was much punished. It will_
thus be seen that in the two rings 11 rounds were fought,
the combatants in the two days only fighting 16 minutes.
Brettle seemed much crestfallen at his defeat. A liberal
subscription was made for him by the referee. Mace
throughout fought in the most fair and manly manner.

YOUNG BODGER CRUTCHLEY AND RICHARD

LONGMORE.

These provincials contested in the same ring for 1,20
a side, there being 39 rounds in one hour and eight minutes
fought, all in favour of Crutchley, when the police made
their appearance on the ground. The belligerents were at
once ordered by the referee to desist, but this was not suffi-
cient for the " blues," who evinced a determination to cap-
ture the men; and owing to the temper and harshness
displayed, using their staves indiscriminately, the anger of
the spectators was aroused, and the result was a general
skirmish, in which one or two of the police were roughly
handled. Every one was, as is the custom, preparing to
leave the ground before the police were within 100 yards
of the ropes, and had it not been for the violence used in
attempting to arrest the men we should not have had the
unpleasant necessity of recording any disturbance. Brottle
and the two Crutchleys are, we are told, in custody.
