REMARKS.

The result of this battle places O'Neal gill higher in the opi-
nion of the sporting world.

His heroic intripdity and off-hand attack has secured him the
well-merited honours of the day. He has now only ano•
thee man to beat to be at the top of the list, and were
envied belt of the Championship of England, but Ward is
dangerous customer, having all the quicknees of O'Neal, and
for superior science. O'Neal's stamina is decidedly good and
helped him out of this recontra with triumph.

whole the immense amount of five hundred and ten thousand
pounds, under a commission at Liverpool. The matter was yes-
terday before his Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, who di-
rected an inquiry before the Master. if such inquiry were to be
proaecuted, it would occupy at least twelve months, and the gen-
tleman in question, in the interim, would have to return to Ame-
rica, and then come to this country again. In the Learned
Counsel's opinion, the report upon the inquiry could not alter the
situation of the parties, and therefore he had merely now to ask,
that his Lordship would have the, goodness to hear the petition
forthwith.

His LORDSHIP said, if Mr. Montagu believed there was Just
ground for appeal, hi could not refute to hear it.
Mr. Tann felt extremely obliged
to t 6 Court, and retired.
