FIGHT BETWEEN. WARD •
FOR TWO HUNDRED POUNDS, and the CUAVI9NOSHII;'(I
OF ENGLAND. ' •v

[The following account of this Fight, which taok place at
Royston Common, thirty-nine miles from London, appeared in a
Seonnd Edition of yesterday's Surf ; we repeat it for the satisfac-
tion of those who only received the First:_)

Ward is allowed to be the finest fighter in England. The
rapidity of his movements give amazing advantage foe the
display of his inimitably flue science. His figure is ad-
mirably calculated for exertion, his height being about live
feet nine inches, well made, stout, and singularly aetive.
He will jump backwards, if occasion require, to avoid a
blow, with as much facility, and farther than many man
can spring forward. His fights with Sampson, and his
Rata great fightwith Cannon, are well known. On taking
the Champion's belt, many competitors sprung up in bra-
vado, but none in arms sufficiently hardy to dispute his
well-earned honours. At length Peter Crawley got backed
against him, but the betting still proved the high opiaien
entertained of Ward's superior science and true game.
Crawley is a giant compared to Ward, being upwards of
six feet two inches, and he bears the reputation of being
an excellent fighter, which, in addition to his size and
strength, render him a formidable antagonist. Ward's
decided advantage lies in the dexterous use of both hands,
left and right are all one to Jun, who is celebrated for
his masterpiece of one, two, three, and knock him down.
In fact, so quick is his eye, and so rapid the movement of
his hands, that he can often hit three times while another
hits once. Betting has been all along from 6,6, and 7to
on Ward:

Owing to the hard day's russ the Fancy had oa the day of the
last fight, great precaution was taken on the present oeoutioa, to
insure a spot of ground where interruption was not likely to take
place, and in order to make things secure, and, if possible, to foil
the endeavours of any Alp.,-,istrate to put a stop to the fight, two
places were appointed, the one was Royston Common, about
thirty-nine miles from tows, and the other at Elton Graage, the
seat of Sir Peter Soames, which is situated about forty-oae mike
from town, and four from Royston, whisk is most admirably si-
tooted for a fight, being surrounded by hills. The riot was
made in the valley ; and never, perhaps, bad dm epeetators a
better opportunity of witnessing the sight.

At the different sporting houses in-town, the order was given
for the fancy, to make for Wade's Mill, and to prepare for a heavy
day's drag, numbers were on the road at an early hour yesterday,
and towards the close of the day the load presented an animated
scene, and London seemed busy in turning out from her smoky
regions, Lords, gentlemen, tag, rag, and bobtail, Le. &s. forming
when taken as a body, the life and soul of a prise-light ; the
vehicles called into requisition were ludicrous in the extreme,
but that did not seem any consideration, " What matter's the ve-
hicle, so long as the horse is a good one," appeared to be the ge-
neral cry ; however, very many of the Laney, to their sorrow,
found that their " tits" were not so desirous of seeing the fight
as the rider, and rested at the end of a few miles.

Royston was the place of rendezvous for the tip top patrons of
the ring, and Ward was there. He made the Red Lion Ina his
head-quarters, and Crawley and his friends stopped at a road-
side house, about two miles from Royston.
This morning the backers of Ward freely bet seven to four, as
Crawley's friends had no objection to take 2 to 1.
At a quarter past twelve o'clock, the order was given for mov-
ing to Royston Heath.
Towards the evening considerable doubts were entertained as to
whether or not the fight would take place, as it was Ike determi-
nation of the Fancy in case of the demise of his Royal highness die
Duke of Yolk that no fight should take place.

• Josh Hudson and Torn Oliver officiated for Ward ; Harry
Harmer and Toni Beleher for Crawley.
All preliminaries being adjusted Jew Ward entered the ring at
one o'clock ; he had a smile on his countenance, and seemed self
confident of success ; 101. to 5/. wee offered, but no taken.
Crawley shortly after entered the ring, leaning on the twin of
Toro Belcher ; he appeared to be in most excellent condition, NO
declared that he intended to do his best. Torn Beleber led Craw.
ley below a canopy to stake his colours. Ward's, blue with white
spots, was imined*tely placed over it.
• Umpires and referees being chosen, the wen came to the swatch
at twelve minutes past one o'clock.

While the arra4ernents were making at Royston Heath, sm-
other ring was formed at Eaton Grange, where nunakera were
c ollected, and thousands thus disappointed, certainly to the die,
grace of those who had imposed on the fancy.
Crawley won the toss for choice of ground.
