THE FIGHT.

Round 1. Some time was occupied in manoeuvring be-
fore either broke ground. Caution was the order of the
day. At last Barney let fly with his left at Jem's body;
but was neatlystopped.—(The sound of this stop electrified
the Jews, and many of them exclaimed, " Go it, Parny,
data de vay to vin—so help me Cot its yours to-day ;"
while Tom Reidie liberally promised him he should have
Aby Allen's organ and piebald mice, to set him up in the
It►lian line, if he would hut whop his antagonist. )—Barney
smiled; and, after a short pause, both fought to a rally, in
which hit follotved hit in quick succession—both had it in
the nob, and Raines planted a severe muzzier, which drew
Barney's cork from his domino case. In retreating Raines
fell ; and after some discussion, first blood was admitted
from Barney.
2. Barney ready ; lost little time in going to work.
Raines was ready, and fought with him. Counter hitting
was followed by in-fighting, in which Raines caught
Barney round the neck with his right, while he fibbed him
quickly -with his left. Barney chopped as rapidly, but
not so effectively, and in the close Raines gave him a
heavy fall.

3. The mugs of both shewed the effects of the pepper-
box in the last round, and were considerably flushed.
Barney popped in a pretty jobbing hit with his left.—
(" Peautiful," cried the sheenies, " there's a smasher !")
Raines was not long in arrear, for he jobbed heavily three
times with his left. Barney took it kindly, but would not
be under a compliment, and rushed to a rally; good court•
ter hits were exchange!, and the ogles of both twinkled
with surprise. Barney had it under the lug, and Raines
on the smeller. A close at the corner of the ring, and
Raines thrown amidst the joyous acclamations of the twelve
tribes.

4. Barney again tried at the carcase, but was stopped.
Counter hits followed, neither flinched ; and hit succeeded
hit with rapidity scarcely conceivable. It was a regular
stand-up work till both were tired, aad in the close both
went down—Barney piping, and Raines puffing. This
was too serious to be pleasant, and the Aaronites looked
blue.

5. Barney came up as game as a pebble, and jobbed
well with his left; Raines was ready, and fought with him
in good style. it was hard work on both sides, and the
deliveries were heavy. Raines in a right-handed job lost
a portion of the bark of his nose. At the close at the
ropes Raines fell.
6. Excellent counter-hitting with the left, and no mis-
take; Raines delivered heavily right and left, and in
closing threw Barney a burster, falling upon him.
7. Barney showed additional marks of violence on his
frontispiece; but still he was as lively as a grig ; he jobbed
with his left, but received heavily in return; Raines then
drew back, and jumping in butted Barney like a ram with
his head, after the new fashion. Barney shook his pro-
boscis, and bored in, when Raines again threw hits
heavily (six to four on Raines--the Jews looking dubious.)
S. Barney planted his right, when both got to the job-
bing system, and hit followed hit with a determination
which shewed that the fight could not last long. Raines
again came the " ram system," and Barney was once more
floored, amidst the smothered grunts of his backers.
9. Barney came up rather fresher, and jobbed heavily
with his left. Raines again tried the butting system, but
napped it in return with the upper cut, which Barney gave
him cleverly. A good straight-forward rally followed,
and neither spared the mop of his opponent; at last Bar-
ney got the fall, and tumbled heavily on Raines.—(The
Petticoat lane boys were again in ecatacies, and the suc-
cess of the poy was once more sanguinely anticipated.)
10. Heavy jobbing on both sides, and pepper without
end. Barney rushed in, and Raines was about to fib, but
Barney fell on his knees rather groggy.
11. Barney, on the bustling system, lost no time in
going to work ; he planted his left on Raines's conck, but
had it heavily in return on the ear from Raines's right;
Raines then butted and drew back ; Barney rushed to a
close, and Raines gave him his lee and threw him heavily.
12. A fine manly rally on both sides, and punishment
pretty much upon an equality—job followed job, till both
were weak, and in the.end.l3arney went down.

phia of the other, till Barney grappled for the fill, and at
last threw his man heavily across the lower ropes, where
he lay upon him for a few seconds; Barney was then
taken off, but it was soon seen there was " a screw
loose'--Raines dropped his head, and had evidently got
enough. The ropes were lifted to get him into the ring,
but he could not be induced to stand up ; and although
dragged to the scratch, he could unt come to the perpen-
dicular. " Time" was immediately called, but the spirit
of Raines had fled, and could not be recalled. It was in
vain to persuade him to prolong the contest, and the shout
of victory threw the Israelites into extacies. Thepoy
was declared the winner in twenty-eight minutes, and was
forthwith conducted to the Green Alan, where he was put
to bed amidst the congratulations of his friends, and where.
he admitted he had not won without getting a belly-full.
