Mr. John Diston Powles was called in, and examined.

What is your line of business ? A ship and insurance broker.
How long have you been engaged in that business ? From ten to twelve years.
Is your business largely in freighting ships to bring timber from the Baltic and
from the British provinces in North America? Very much so.
Have you had occasion to observe what has been the effect of increasing the
duties on foreign timber, and exempting the timber from the American provinces
from duty on the employment of British shipping ? It has had the effect of pro-
viding a resource for the employment of British shipping, for which otherwise no
employment could have been found.
Upon what ground do you 'state, that no other employment could have been
found for that proportion of British shipping ? I say so because all other means
have been tried : and there still remains a quantity of shipping for which it is very
difficult to find employment.
To what circumstances do you attribute that difficulty ? I attribute it, in the
first place, to the demand for transports having ceased ; and secondly, to the trade.
of the country being exposed to greater competition than formerly.
If the timber trade with the British provinces in North America had not afforded
this resource for the employment of shipping, would the same quantity of shipping
have been engaged in bringing the wood from the northern powers of Europe?
I apprehend not one-eighth part of the quantity of tonnage.
What are your grounds for that opinion ? I say so, because from Russia ships
make upon an average about two voyages a season, from Prussia three or four, from
Norway six ; from which I reckon, that if the whole had been brought in British
tonnage, it would not have employed above a quarter of the tonnage to have brought
it: but looking to the fact, that from Prussia and from Sweden one-half of the
tonnage employed is foreign, and from Norway five-sixths of it foreign, I come
to the conclusion, that upon the whole not above one-eighth part of the tonnage
would have been employed to bring the same quantity of wood from the north of
Europe that has been employed in bringing it from America.
If such regulations in the duties on timber were made as to throw a greater pro-
portion of the supply from the Baltic, and less from the British provinces in North
America, do you apprehend that the increased trade with the northern powers of
Europe would be carried on in a greater proportion in British ships than it hitherto
has been ? Certainly not.
What means have you of forming an opinion upon that subject ? Because I
find, looking to the three years ending in 1819, which is the latest date to which I
have found any returns made, that although the Norway ships, in coming here,
lose one-fifth of their whole freight by the difference in duty,, and although the
Prussians lose to the extent of one-seventh in the difference of duty; notwithstand.

In the years 1819 and 1820, the importation of pine timber had so exceeded die
demand for it, that it had fallen considerably below what I consider its relative vat°!
to other timber, and we were selling Memel timber at 61. and pine timber at 31. 11''',
to 31. 155.; at the present time Memel timber is worth 61. and pine timber is
o°-
e
worth above three guineas, owing as I believe to the excessive importation of th
one article, and the moderate importation of the other : that I believe will be borne
out by the estimates which I have seen of the importation from the colonies in tb'e
years 1817, 1818, and 1819, as being particularly heavy. bore
In which of those years do you conceive the Baltic and the American fir
their comparatively fair prices in the market? I think at the beginning ,of thn. i
year 1819, when the price of Menzel timber was 61. 15s. and the price of ycll°l'
pine 41. 10s. •
On what grounds do you consider the comparison to be made, as to the quail
of the timber, or how. otherwise ? As to the quality of the timber certainly. ‘,.,

GERMAN PAPERS.

HAMBURDII, DEC. 28.—The following is the
Declaration addressed to the Governments by
the Sovereigns at Troppau, relating to the affairs
at Naples and the events connected with them,
which piece was delivered to the Senate of This
city by the Austrian resident Minister, Baron.
Nadel :• v."
" The overthrow of the order of things in Spain, Portugal,
and Naples, has necessarily caused the cares and the uneasi-
ness of the Powers who combated the revolution, and con-
vinced them of the necessity of putting a check on the new
calamities with which Europe is threatened.. The principles
which united the great' Powers of the Continent to deliver
the world from the military despotism of an indiiidual issu-
ing from the Revolution, ought to act against the Revolu-
tionary Power which has just developed itself. •
" The Sovereigns assembled at Troppau with this inten-
tion, ventures to hope that they shall attain this object.—
They will take for their guides, in this peat enterprise, the
Treaties which restored peace to Europe, and have.unite.d its
nations together.
44 Without doubt the Powers have the right, to take in
common general measures of precaution against those States,"
whose reforms engenderedby rebellion, are openly- opposed'
to legitimate Governments, as example has already deMon-
strated, especially when the spirit of rebellion is propagated
in the neighbouring States by secret agents. In consequence
the Monarchs assembled at Troppau have concerted together
the measures required by circumstances, and have communi-"
cated to the Courts of London and Paris their intention of
attaining the end desired, either by mediation or by force.—
With this view,they bare invited the King of the TwO Sicilies
It; repair to Laybach, to appear there as conciliator between
his misguided people and the States -WilOV tranquillity is en-
datigered by this state of things ; and as they 'have resolved
not to recognise any authority established by the seditious, it
is only with the. King they can confer.. •
" As the system to' be followed has no other foundotion.
than Treaties already existing, they have no doubt of the as-.
sent of the Courts of-Paris and London. The only Object. o f
this system is to consolidate the alliance between the Sove-
reigns; it has no view to conquests, or to violation of the
independence of other Powers. Voluntary ameliorations in
:the Government will not be impeded. They desire only to
maintain trantitillAty, and protect Europe from the scourge
4.t new Rrvointiosis, and to prevent them as far. as possible."

SIR HARCOURT LEES.

We stated on Thursday, that Mr. BRIDGMAN,
a Confectioner, in London, had sent a Twelfth
Cake, of no ordinary dimensions, to Sir HARCOURT
LEES, as an humble testimony of his admiration of
the Rev. Baronet's patriotic Letters. The follow-
ing is the Correspondence that passed on the oc-
casion, and we have only to wish that many of the
higher ranks of life possessed as much good sense
as the honest Confectioner, aild were as clear-
sighted and intrepid in the cause of TRUTH, as

[THE TIMES.]

The mail of yesterday brought us Tuesday's
Dublin papers, whence there appears no symp-
tom of abatement in the general distemper of the
time. Ou the contrary, a fresh outrage is record-
ed to have taken place in the county of Tipperary,
which, though not at all unprecedented, even in
the ordinary course of Irish manners, is described
to have been on a larger scale, and somewhat more
of a military character, than any previous act of
violence by which the present crisis has been dis-
tinguished. Two men, living at Four-mile-water,
county of We terford,were taken in execution,some
days ago, for debt; but the constables were too
weak to prevent a rescue. On the morning of the 2d

inst. one constable with 14 of the military, a ser-
geant's guard, succeeded iutaking 2 of the leading
parties in the rescue ; but, as usual in such cases,
the insurrectionary posse assembled in large mul-
titudes, and attacked the soldieri, who retired

for shelter to a neighbouring castle. In the mean
time, from the increasing numbers of the as-
sailants, the military saw destruction at hand,
and threatened to shoot the prisoners if any fur-
ther attempt were made to rescue them. After
remaining in this unpleasant posture from long
before day-break until four in the afternoon,
the little band of soldiers were relieved by a
reinforcement under the command of an officer.
Undoubtedly we have seldom known a time
when, in the interior of the South of Ire-
land, a prisoner, whether for debt or breach
of the peace, did not stand a fair chance of be.

ing rescued. The fact, we are sorry to be
obliged to say, is, that the law of the country has
been all along beheld by the lower Irish as a
penal and hostile, rather than a protectin4,
power. The sympath'es of this misguided race
take, in many points, a pernicious, though not an
unnatural, direction. Almost uniformly they
feel with debtor against creditor, tenant apinst
landlord, criminal against magistrate, the rebel
against the State. Power cannot have been fairly
exercised, where, whatever be the shape it as..
sullies, it has contrived to render itself so odious.
Measures are taking, the Dublin prints inform
us, to restrain the _private sale of gunpowder,---a
salutary regulation at a time like this.

IRISH GLOVE MANUFACTORY.

Mu. Eorrott-1 shall feel obliged to any of
your Irish Correspondents to state, through the
medium of your excellent Paper, the reason why
it is so difficult to purchase in England and Scot-
land the Limerick and Cork Gloves, which are so
universally admired,. Does it arise from the
duties imposed on their importation into Great
Britain, or some other cause' Whatever creates
this discouragement of their consumption here
should be removed, as the manufacture is much
approved, and there is a very prevailing wish
amongst our females to encourage it.

TL7A3I, Nov. 21.—The gallant General Sir
Jous ELLLY, h. C. 8., after inspecting all the
cavalry in the Munster District, has just finished
his half-yearly inspection of the troops in his own
(the Connaught) district, and appears well satis-
fied with the state of efficiency in which he found
the several regiments under his orders. On
Tuesday last, he inspected, at 'Castlebar, the 63:1
regiment, commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel
C. 8., and expressed his high approba-
tion of their appearance, manceuvres, and disci-
pline in every respect, which compliment this
very effective corps well deserves.
Monday morning last, the first division of the
55th Regiment
.embarked at Gravesend for the
Cape of Good Hope, on board the Balcarrasln-
diaman. The second division embarked on Tues-
,day, on board the David Scott, for the same
place. The first division of the 49th Foot also
embarked on Monday, at Gravesend, for the
Cape, and will be followed by the remainder of
the regiment as speedily as possible.
On Wednesday the horse artillery moved from
the temporary barracks at Glasgow to the newly-
erected horse barracks, near Port Eglinton. The
head quarters of the cavalry in this district are,
in future, to be at Glasgow, and not at Hamilton,
where only one troop will be quartered.—(Edin-

for the public welfare in his-attempt to reduce
the price of what is called the staff of lye, and if
his data were right, his deductions would natu-
rally follow ; but from all I can hear from those
conversant with the subject, he is under a mistake
in supposing that a sack of hour will yield eighty
three loaves. lam assured that after the neces-
sary processes are gone through, with great care,
the common average product is eighty loaves, and

[BRITISH PRESS 3

Our extracts from the Irish Papers received
yesterday present a long and melancholy list of
crimes. Fear may be expected to misrepresent
many facts, and create imaginary dangers ; but
with every allowance for exaggeration thus pro-
duced, sufficient of truth is unfortunately esta-
blished to shew. that the lawless and ferocious
spirit which has already done so much mischief,
has not been checked by the extraordinary means
resorted to for that purpose. It would indeed
seem, on the contrary, that its malignant influence
is rather spreading. In one case it is stated a
body of some thousands of deluded men, some
of them in arms, presented themselves in open
resistance to the laws ; the exertions to ob-
tain arms become more general, and the timid
policy of those owners who voluntarily dis-
armed themselves has proved unavailing, for
where arms have been sent away the insurgents
threaten their owners with death and the destruc-
tion of their property, in the event of the arms
not being brought back and delivered up to them.
Every possible means of vigour and precaution
are used. by Government to suppress this de-
plorahle state of disorder. One of those of most
recent adoption is an order to prevent the sale of
gunpowder, and thus render the arms in the hands
of the insurgents useless, by depriving them of
ammunition. The Special Commission for the
trial of offenders will sit in Limerick on the 15th
instant, and is expected to have a salutary effect.
The local gentry are also exerting themselves
with increased energy. Meetings of the Nobility
and Gentlemen of the counties of Limerick and
Tipperary have been held, at which the re-enact.
inent of the Insurrection Act was recommended,
as an essential measure of safety.

THE THEATRES.

1) RURY-LANE.—The Road to Ruin, which al-
together is a well constructed Comedy, and par-
ticularly calculated to draw forth the talents of
the performers, was represented last night at this
Theatre. The excellence of MUNPEN in Old
Dornford is too well known to need any com-
ment. COOPER, whose nightly labours skew his
zeal in the service, gave a very spirited support
to Young Dornfdrd. ILtULEY'S Goldfinch was
all life, bustle, and humour.; and Miss KELLY'S
Sophia an animated portrait of simple tenderness
and spirit.

Covm-GAnnEs.—We are sorry to state, that
during the performance of Two Gentlemen of Ve-
rona, last night, in fighting with banditti, Mr.
ABBOTT, who represented Proteus, received a
wound near the eye, which drew from him a
strong expression of pain. The audience were
in a state of alarming suspence till Mr. EGERTON
came forward, and assured them that the danger
was not so great as was at first apprehended, and
that the eye was not touched. The audience
aestitied much pleasure in hearing this account,
tnd Mr. Anaorr went immediately home.

peachy, news has been received k this city as
late as 25th ult. from the Mexican capital, and
to the 4th inst. from Vera Cruz. These accounts
mention the approaching entry of kyr:pint into
the metropolis of New Spain, and the nomination
of the individuals who were to compose the Su-
preme Junta of Government until the convocation
of the Cortes.

We have also received a file of the Yucatcco,
h paper published. at Merida, and from it we col-
lect, that that Province declared itself inde-
pendent on the 15th Sept. last, and was deter-
mined to follow the fortunes of the Imperial
leader of the Army of tile Three Guarantees.—
.There is no longer a doubt that the Imperial
'cause, which has already reached the Banks of
The Sabine, would extend through vast and rich
Provinces to the Isthmus of Darien, the boun-
dary of the Spanish dominions in North America,
*which, in the cause or race of independence,
has, through the cunning of ITURBIDE and in-
quisitorial Priests, far outstripped the Southern
dominions of the same power in the New World.
" Captain COUTIIONY, late of the brig Aris-
tides, states, it was reported that the pirates had
Captured a French ship off St. Antonio, and mur-
.dered all on board, including a Lady passenger ;
and the fact of a Lady's clothes being found on
board one of these vessels, stained with blood,
is a strong confirmation of the report."

SOLI M OUIS DICERS FALSUM AUDEAT?

LONDON,
MOND4Y, SEPTEMBER 10, 1821.

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Thursday and Friday. The question of peace or
war is still undecided; and it is scarcely possible

to come to any positive opinion on this subject,
for the accounts in the Foreign Journals are of
the most contradictory nature. It would appear
as if the interest taken in the cause of Greece was
widely spreading among all the continental na.

tions. The feelings of the Russian people on this
subject have been strongly manifested; 'and in

the minor German States so warm is the sympathy
excited in favour of the Greeks, that the subscrip-
tions for the support of their cause are increasing to
an enormous amount, in the collection of which

iadies of the highest"distinction have taken an
active part, and the volunteers are numerous
beyond the means of transport to the theatre of
war. This feeling is participated by the inhabit.
ants of Vienna, by the Austrians in general, and
by the Hungarians ; and if the Government did
not restrain it, there is no doubt that an equal
degree of zeal and energy would be displayed
In Poland a still greater degree
of enthusiasm, if possible, prevails than in Ger-
many ; and what has most tended to produce

on their- part.

this generous ardour is a translation into the
Polish language of the animated appeal of Profes-
sor KRUGG in favour of the Greeks. Baron de
STROGONOFF arrived at. Odessa on the night of

the 13th of last month, and multitudes assembled
round his house the next morning, to congratu,
late him on his happy arrival after so many dan-
gers. Dispatches were immediately sent off to
Count ORLOFF, Commander of-the Russian fleet
at Sebastpool, Count de WITTGENSTEIN, Com-
mander-hi-Chief in Bessarabia, and also to Peters-

WOOL TA X.

Lord MILTON said, he saw no prospect of Lis being able
to bring lOrward the Repeal of the Wool Tax, as a substantive
motion, that night, but if the Iron. Member for Cumberland
carried his motion for the Repeal of the Husbandry Horse Tax,
he should move an instruction to the Committee for the Repeal
of the "W9ollTax-L(A laugh !).

Air. S.' RICE said, it had been his intention to .have brou,ght
on that rioht a subject of the very highest importance, affecting
the administration of justice in Ireland. He had been requested
by the Honourable Member for the county of Limerick, to
postpone it for a few days, and he had no hesitation in doing so.
Ile new gave notin,,, that when he breught the.subject forward,
he should go fully into it, and take.the sense of the Eons?. upon
it. He should now move only that the ninth Report of the
Commissioners of Inquiry into the Courts of justice in Ireland
be entered as.read, dtd that it be made an Order of the Pqy to

LAW. OF ppMERA R A-TOR T URE.

Mr. GOULBURN, in answer to a question put by the Tien.
.General (Sir R. Wilson) a few nights, ago, was now enabled to
state, that according to the interpretation of the Dutch law in
Dernerava, it was not considered that torture was laWful, and it
had consequently never been 'practised there. In consequence
of this, no instruction on the subject had been sent thither as to
the rest of the conquered Colonies, but to prevent the possibi-
lity of any -ads-conception, an instruction would now be sent
out.—(licar !). . -

IRELAND.

It is with regret that we notice the disturbed
state of• several populous districts of the Sister
Kingdom. We, however, hope, that the energyof
the Government, and the good sense of the ra-
tional part of the community, will soon remove
the cliseatisfaCtion whit:l prevails in these dis-
tricts, and
.that there will be no occasion to en-
force the power invested by the Legislature in
the Government of Ireland.—The.following pro-
clamation
and remarks are taken from a respecta-
Me Irish Paper :
By the Lords .;ustices, and Council of Ireland, a Proclamation.
IV. ARMAOR, .k:ANNERS, C. D. BAIRD.
Whereas, by an Act of Parliament passed in the 54th year of
his late Majesty's reign, entituled " An Act to provide for the
better execution of the Laws in Ireland, by appointing
Super-
intending Magistrates an&additional Constables in Counties in
certain cases," it is amongst other things enacted, that it shall
be lawful for the Lord Lieutenant, or other Chief Governor or
Governors of Ireland for the time being, by the advice of the
Privy Council of Ireland, to declare by Proclamation, that any
County, County of a City, or County of a Town in 'lreland, or-
any Barony or Baronics, or Half Barony, or Half Baronies in
any County at large to be therein specithdi is or are in a state •
of disturbance, and requires or require an extraordinary esta-
blishment of Police.
And whereas, it hath sufficiently appeared to us, that the Ba-
ronies of Eastcrn Narra.y,h, Faieban, Kilkea, Moon, North
Naas, and South Salt, in the County of Kildare ; also, that
part of the Barony of Upper Cross, in the COunty of Dublin,'
comprising the parishes of Ballymore Eustace, Milltown, Dun-
lawn, Ballybought, and Tipperkevin ; and' the Barony of
Talbotstown, in the County of Wicklow, arc in a state of ,
disturbance, and require an extraordinary establishment of
Police.

Now we, the Lords Justicei, by and with the advice of the
Privy Council of Ireland, by virtue of the said Act, and of the
powers thereby vested in us, do by this our Proclamation de-
clare, that the Baronies of Eastern Narrate], Rlieban, Kilkea,
Moon North Naas, and South Salt, in the County of Kildare; _
also that part of the Barony of Upper Cross, in the County of
Dublin, comprising the parishes of Mali}} more Eustace, Mill-
town, Dunlavin, Ballybought, and Tipperkevin, and the Barony
of Talbotstown, in the County. of Wieklow,-; are in a state of
disturbance., and require an extraordinary"establishment of
Police.
Given at the Council Chamber in Dublin, the 30th day of
May, 1821.

CATHOLIC. QUESTION.

The following is.a copy of the .Petition from
the Corporation:of Winchester on this subject :
The Petition of the Mayor, Alderinen, and Freemen of the
City of Winchester to the Honourable the Commons of the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parlia.

ment assembled,

SirtwETH, That your Petitioners have observpd with deep
rey:et arid increasing alarm the progreii of the Hill lately in-
troduced into your Honourable House for thepurpose of grant-
Wig further concessions and privileges to the Roman Catholics,
a' ad of admitting them to, the exercise of judicial and legisla-
tive function&

That your Petitioners, while they are desirous that to every
class of their felloW-Subjects shpuld be extended the.fullest to-
leration of their :religious opinions and'worship, and that all
should be partakers of
.the benefits of our invaluable Constitu-
tion, so far as is consistent with the general security, . and
the maintenance of the Protestant Chureh,, established by Law
in, these realms, do humbly beg leave to state, that they con-
scientiously believe the proposed admission of Roman Catholics
to political power to be irreconcileable.to the principles of sound
policy, which are derived from the experience and history of
past ages, the surest and best guides to legislative wisdom.
That your Petitioners being deeply impressed with the truth ,
and importance of the great constitutional maxim, that "the
Throne, the Parliament, and the Government of this Country,
are. essentially and fundamentally Protestant," and that the
Protestant Religion is the chief security of our public happi-
nes; and welfare, are most firmly convinced that the introduc-
tion of Roman Catholics into the offices of the State, and the
great Councils of the Nation, would be subversive not only of
the leading principle of the British Constitution, but also, ul-
timately, of the Government itself as established, under Provi-
dence, at the Revolution.

.That your Petitioners, further beg leave humbly to express
their firm conviction that to 116-man Catholics• as Priv y Coun-
sellors,. as Judges, or as. Legislators, could not with safety .be
confided either the interests of the Established Church, or the
Rights and Liberties, Civil and Religious, of all the inestimable
Institutions of this .Prptestant Country.
Your Petitioners, therefore, in the just exercise of their un-
doubted.right.of petition, consider themselves bound on the pre-
sent occasion to make this .firm but respectful representation of
their sentiments ; and humbly pray that • your Honourable
House will even yet pause before, you consent to the repeal of
the Statutes complained of, by. the. Roman Catholics, and before
you give your final sanction to aj.3ill fraught, in the. estimation
of your Petitioners, with. so. many and so great danger to our
national Constitution, as well in State.as in Church.

FOR THE SUN.

NATIONAL DISTRESS.
MR. EDITOR.--Your Correspondent, in TUE
SUN of Friday, who calls upon the Fund-holders
to pay 4nnually a Tax of EIGHT MILLIONS, seems
to have committed rather a whimsical mistake,
like some of Jostpu Huivies calculations in Fi-
nance.

The
- , income is FORTY EIGHT
MILLto annually—to pay Eight Millions, or
one sixth of that, would be a Tax.of 161.135. 4d.
per cent. on that income..
If your correspondent has 100/. in the Consols,
and has to pay 1/. per cent. per annum, on what
is worth only 751., he must then pay more in
proportion than he who haslloo/., in the fours or
fives, who will only be called on for 11. on Stock
-worth 1001. and upwards.
In short, Sir. your Corespondent confounds
Capital and Income, in thus proposing an
annual tax of ONE per Cent on Eight Hun-
dred Millions.
A fair Tax of ONE PER CENT. on the Funds
Asculd only amount to Four Hundred and Eighty
Thousand Pounds; less than HALF A MILLION.

ROUNDS.

L Both weie full of gaiety, and too fast to last. Many blows
were bit away and some parried, but,Martin placed one on his
adversary's body Which sent him away a foot, or two, and in
a close both fell, and Martin was undek.

2. Turner made some • sicentific parries of • Martin's right
hand, which was bent upon mischief.. Martin's rusb wits met
by a counter hit, and he threw Turner, bUt went down with him.
3. The.men closed without doing any mischief, and, at. the
WEAV TING system, Martin's strength gave him best.
4. Martin placed a heavy right-handed body blow, Which sent
Turn er off his balance.
5. Turnerliad rather the best of this round by hitting his
adversary heavily on the'neck, which seemed • to gratify. him.
He also placed another hit on the head, but he was thrown
from. the close,
6. Martin's neck was well marked. He threw some well in-
tended blows away, and he received a smart hit oh the mouth.
He was undermost in the fall.

Turner 7. This was about the best round of the fight. Turner plac-
ed a flush hit upon his adirersary's left eye-hd, which produced
streams of claret, but he was returned upon, and thrown after a
touragf.-ous rallyy._ •
8. A-gallantly,contested round in- favour of Martin, who
placed his favourite right:handed hit upon-the body, in return
for which he knapped upon the head. A-hard rally followed,.at
the end of-which both went down. .

. .
9. Martin seemed. distressedmore than his adversary, blit
bOth had worked hard hi a hot sun, and Martin's superior
straight gaveltirn an advantage ; he placed the awkward right..
handed blow upon the body again, and threw Turner. Betting
to 4 on Turner.

10. Martin placed the heavy body hit again, and Turner went
down ' • Martin became a renter favourite.
11. Both inen distressed, they had a scrambling round, and.
Randal bet' Martin 7to 4 ; -the former offered it publicly-1 and
Martin-took it when in attitude.

12:Nothing but the Well-known gi3Odness of Turner could
ha'veijratailed upon his backers to fancy him now, as Martin
placed the heavy right-handed hit several times.; Turner could
not stop it or return, and he was thrown.
Martin's.eye'was nearly closed, but" his steadiness 'and Con.
dition gave him an advantage, and •he bored his adversary
down in _ most of the subsequent rounds,, as the fight did not
afford a clean knock down. At this 'Stage of the fight the
hitting was comparatively feeble. Turner was hit several times
upon-the body in the Llth round, after drawing more claret
from Martin's leff eye, and relieving the swelling. Although
59 round's were fought in one hour and 28 -minutes, details
wonldbetedious to the reader., In nearly every round Martin
was successful in planting, his telling body blow,; and although
Turner, in return, occasionally' pinched the head, ieWas of -no
use,. as. he went down from weakness in. everTround'at the/at-
ter pasta -the battle, but the odds were never more than two
to one against him ; at last Nature turned' him up, and he
could not come to time. Spring•and an amateur seconded the
winner,. and Belcher and Randal picked up -Turner.
Rasher beat Spencer in one hour for a purse.

BOXING.

MARTIN; AND TURNER.—III order to keep a
ring as select as possible, Crawley Common, 32
miles from London, ivasappointed for the fight,
and there was a strong muster of all sorts at 12
o'clock, when the Commander-in- Chiefmarshalled
the forces, but the heat of the day knocked up
horses, which were seen. at a stand-still every
mile on the road, and some fell to the lot of ;he
knacker. Before one, o'clock the_ battle corn-
Mencedi and average betting was 15 to 8 on
Turner.
