'PUGILISM.
CONTEST BETWEEN WILLIAM GILL, OF COVENTRY,
AND T. GRIFFITHS, OF WOOLWICH, FAI 2001.—This
match, which excited considerable interest among the
patrons of the puyilate, was duly decided yesterday at
Frienley Green, on the confines of Hampshire and Sur-
rey, in presence of many hundreds of spectators,
" gentle," " simple," and neither, or both, who had
steamed it down per special train from London. As
it is now about five years since the renowned
"Paddy " (as the Coventry man is familiarly termed)
last sported his figure against an antagonist, and four-
teen years since he first made his salam in the ring, he
was looked upon as rather " stale ; " still the recollec-
tion of his many well-fought triumphs, and his reputa-
tion for generalship, placed him high among the older
fanciers, while not a few of the younger ones pre-
ferred Griffiths—a hardy young fellow, 'as yet un-
conquered, and whose lasting qualities, strength, and
freshness were considered fully to counterbalance " the
ould 'un's " tactics and experience. At opening, the
friends of Gill, determined to " get on" at any price,
finding that 5,6, and 7 to 4 met with a slow response,
actually wagered 2 to 1, nay, 101. to 41., on their man.
We shall not detail the rounds, suffice it to say from the
let to the 15th they were almost unexampled for their
quickness, little or no sparring taking place. Griffiths
pushed ou the game, and Paddy, nothing loath, was
with him as fast as he chose, and sometimes, doubtless,
faster. The first 15 rounds did not occupy much more
than 20 minutes, and each was full of hit, stop, parry,
and finally a struggle for the fall. Having somewhat
slackened Mr. Gritliths's pace by repeated apperants,
and half-arm rallies, Gill began his old tactique, dodging
about before his man, and pupping in his left with great
precision and considerable severity. This game told
gradually upon Griffiths, who manfully battled with his
difficulties till the 50th round, when it was clear 0
every dispassionate spectator that Griffiths had not the
ability to get effectively at Gill; indeed, Griffiths might,
with perfect safety to his reputation for courage, have
resigned the contest before this. However, his spirit
retused to utter the word "enough," and he fought
against superior length and science, till a heavy throw,
in the 53d round, put the conclusion to the battle and
his hopes for the hundred sovs. The winner did not es-
cape unscathed, confessing that the Woolwich " plant"
had given him more trouble than he anticipated. Time,
1 hour 45 minutes.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] ----BOTANIC WATER AND
BEARS' GREASE. —When the hair is becoming thin, and fall-
ing nff, the only effectual remedy, besides shaving the head,
is the use of the two above-named articles, applied alter•
nately, the botanic water to cleanse the roots from scurf, and
as a stimulant, and the bears' grease as a nourisher. If any
further evidence was required of the virtues of bears' grease
for renovating and preserving the hair, Mr. Catlin's account
of the quantity used, and the length of hair obtained by
some of the North American Indians, would be a sufficient
answer.--Ross & Sows. 119 and 120, Bishopsgate-street,
London, who first introduced the use of bears' grease in this
country, and who fat and kill the animals, recommend the
public to purchase none other but with their names and
address printed on the pot, or the chances are their obtain-
ing a spurious article.
