THE CHAMPIONSHIP—JEIi MACE‘AND JOE GOSH.
Ere three weeks shall have passed away, the great battle
for the Championship of England will have been lost and
won. The combatants yesterday placed £lO a-side in the
hands of the stakeholder, making £l5O a-side down ;
another deposit, of £lO a-side, and the final, of £4O aside,
on May 18, will make up the £2OO a-side. The reports
from the training quarters of the gladiators are very satis-
factory. Mace is at the Strawberry Grounds, Liver-
pool, and is in capital health and spirits. He weighs
withilst now over Montagueorerfiveyears,warintdes i—l" I have

discontinued smoking and extra glasses, and he gradually
crept into the hard work of active training without feeling
any great change. His muscles are as fully developed
as
when he was at the hotel in Ireland,
when ho playfully
'landed' on me. So you may judge, now that he is
drying up, how he will look in the ring. All I can say is,
should he be unfortunate enough to lose, it will not be
through want of condition, as I firmly believe when
they start fighting Mace will have the caste in his
favour in respect to health and condition. He is up
at five o'clock rolling our bowling green, digging
gardens, carpentering, or at some handicraft until
eight; then breakfast; same performance continued
until eleven, when we have a turn round the ground
some five or six miles. You may guess he is pretty fit.
When Jack Brighton, Thomas (the Northern Deer), and I
start with him, we leave off first." Mace opens the Straw-
berry Grounds on Monday with a miscellaneous entertain-
ment, followed by a farewell dinner. In the exposition of
the "noble art," sets-to will take place between Bill Ryall
and Jack Hooke, Peter Morris and Young Holden, and the
wind-up will be with Join Mace and Andrew Marsden.
We hope he will meet with the success he deserves in his
new enterprise. From Joe Goss's training quarters—Old
Boat Inn, Great Brickkiln-street —we hear that Joe is very
well, and doing about twenty-six miles per day. Ho
weighs about list 61b, and will not be much lighter on the
day of fighting. He will be glad to see his friends at Mrs.
Savage's, the Old Boat Inn, before he takes his final leave
of that place.

UNPRECEDENTED EMIGRATION.—The emigration
from Europe to the United States daring the current year
will exceed that of all former years. In the first week in
March there left Ireland, in twenty-one ships, 4,595
steerage, and 256 cabin passengers. Some 15,000 more
were assembled at, Queenstown: awaiting transportation.
Havre, in France, is crowded with several thousands of
Garment emigrants, all provided with money,agnadedagtherelfry,
awaiting their departure for their new homes.

the emigration from Europe will _

50,000.
