benefit the resignation of so many Members would do
to the party, but we can readily believe that Tnnas
would head any crusade against the Knic and his
Ministers.

SCOTCH LAW REFORM.—(From a Correspondent.)—
Mr. Wallace's motion on Scotch Law Courts Reform
fell to the ground for want of a seconder, and it is no
wonder, for there did not appear to be more than four
or five Members on the same side of the House with the
Member for Greenock. Dinner hour is ' a very dan-
gerous one for any but very popular or party questions,
and as so few in the House of Commons take any inte-
rest in Law Reform, and especially in Scotch Law
Reform, it would be no surprise that Mr. Wallace had
to address himself nearly to empty walls. The Hon.
Member's statement referred almost entirely to returns
and other documents which he used at the table, and as
these evidently contained a mass of figures and statistics,
it was impossible without being possessed of them to
give a full report. This may be best judged of by
stating that, the speech of the Hon. Member occupied
more than an hour, and was listened to without any
symptom whatever of impatience—ad unusual occur-
rence during the discussion of so dry a subject.

PRIZE FIGHT FOR 1001. . SlDE.—Yesterday •
prize fight took place about 30 miles down the Dover Railway
line for 1001. a side, between two of the heavy weights, Tess
Parker and the Tipton Slasher (Wm. Perry). The same
men fought about nine weeks since, but the battle wasinter-
rupted by the police. The combat yesterday lasted two hours
and thirty-two minutes, during which 132 rounds were
fought. Parker is considered a man of great fistic science,
but he yesterday proved that he has not a single atom of
" pluck" in his composition. He fought fairly for a tim
rounds, and then had recourse to the unmanly mode of
striking his adversary, and then falling the moment he was
struck at to avoid a blow. Whilst he lay on the ground he
several times kicked the Slasher, and at last his own umpire
declared that he had lost the fight through foul play. Par-
ker's conduct created such universal disgust, that it is not
expected he will ever find a backer again. In consequence
of the determination of the superior members of the prize
ring the arena was admirably kept, and no disturbance or
disreputable act took place amongst the spectators.
CONDUCT OF THE MINISTRY.—We understand
that a meeting of many influential gentlemen in the Tower
Hamlets was held last week, at the Court-house, Osborne-
street, to take into consideration the propriety of calling a
public meeting of the electors on the subject of the late con-
duct of the Government towards Ireland, and also the decla-
ration of Sir R. Peel, that he does not contemplate any
alteration in the corn-laws ; when it was unanimously re-
solved to call a public meeting as early as possible to discuss
the above important topics.
