don's Loo.—High odds against

BOXING between SCROGGINS and a NAVIGATOR.

A bustling campaign with the milling
,Iprces was
supposed to hßtie terminated at Snepperton Point
on the 7th inst. when 'burner, in seco►►d combat,
destroyed ScrOggitis's invulnerability. The forces
from that date went into winter quarters, and the
Commissary generai wired With the 'rives and
stakes to Black HOrse.yard, leaving the white bag
meo to regulate the tolls, &c. tar future opera-
tions. Scroegins made a very gallant set-to with
Randall, at Belasco's benefit on Tuesday, and he
shewed the amateur's, that although defeated, it
had not lessened the opinion be had of himself ;
and to his enemies, who vauntingly exclaimed af-
ter that defeat that he never could fight, he gave
a convincing prOof of manhood and science. In
the evening he retired to
,enjoy himself at a cele-
brated pugilist's, house, whefl a navigator made
n►any.personal observations to the little hero, call-
ing his professional abilities in question, that lie
could lick half. a room full of such impostors, &c.
The word,iiipostoT put Sci-oggin3 upon his mettle,
and although the Navigator was a fine grown fel-
low, more than 13 stone in weight, the little boxer
told bim,to be quiet, but this did not do—the Na-
vigator would thrash him, and nothing else. ''.Welt
then," said Scroggins," if it must be so,the sooner
we get at it the better." The men retired toa neigh-
bouring skittle grotind well lighted ; they peeled.
and at it they went. From the length and attitude of
the Navigator, Scroggins went to work with much
caution, marnztivring round him to place his hits.
In a close in first round both were down, after
placing a blow. 11, the second round, Scroggins
gave him his favourite right-handed smashing hit
in the lug, which floored him. In the third round,
Scroggins took all the fight out of him ; he kept his
head in jeopardy, until the poor fellow, it is
fair to presume, had forgot where he was ; and
after making a frightful picture o,f: him he floored
hint again, and emphatically told him, that for
his impudence he would so spoil hint, that his re-
lations should not know hilts. He realized what
be promised in two other rounds, until the Na-
vigator sung out, " Enough."

FRANKLIN'S CottassPotlosNcs.---The
will be pleased to hear that the Octavo Edition of
these interesting Letters is now published.—The
Monthly Reviewers do but justice to the writer
when they say, that by the publication of the
present, volume, the elevated reputation of
FaaNKtitc,for virtue, for knowledge, for probity,
and for talents, will suffer no diminution, since
it bears ample testimony to the fidelity of his
mind, to the solidity of his judgment, to the
justness of his Viekis, to the amenity of his man-
ners, and to his ardent desire of promoting the
happiness of mankind. some characters appear
great only when contemplated at a distance, and
on a nearer inspec. ion excite only derision or con-
tempt, but the character of FRANKLIN will bear
the distant and the microscopic view. We may
follow him from tke great Theatre of Politics,
where he discussed the destiny of nations, to his
domestic fire-side, where he conversed with his
friends and trifled.with his grand-children, with-
out any deduction from our reverence and our
esteem. Nothing artificial appeared in his cha..
racter, and he was never indebted for his Sanctity
I 0 a mask. ".(:-
