OBSERVATIONS.

We have to add a tew remarks upon the qualities
of-the men opposed in this match. Scroggins is, at
least, four inches shorter than Ealcs, but one of those
little great men, who have power over men of much
higher stature. He covert much ground titiltis atti.
tudes,. and fights rather round, but in pretty style.
—Before the fight he insured success, and told his
friends that they might back him to any amount, as
he was sure of beating his man. Eales was put for-
ward as the favourite, and his warmest friends were
inclined to hack hint upon the supposition that he pos-
-1 sewed more science than the sailor.

The ring was disappointed from the qualifications
of both men being much over-rated in speculation.
Each had many dinners of winning which were
missed. Instead of Eales meetin his adversary at
getting in, he was always out at judging his distance,
by which the Herculean strength o Scroggpies gave
him the advantage in throwing, and from which
alone Eales was hurt. The greater pint of the com-
bat consisted in wrestling. Eales bad the best of the
in fighting, at which Scroggins had shelved himself
so good before, but missed most of his hits at a dis•
tance. The weights of the men were.,.,Eales, ) Ist. Vb.
and Scroggins lOst. Itills. Sales stood much over
his adversary, and Scroggins played some artful
schemes at getting iii. Both are unequal to men of
their weight in former times. Scroggins, however,
is a very troublesome customer to get rid of, and he
would have had an opportunity of doing more with
a man equal to him in stature. By some it was sup-
posed? Eales lost the battle by the hurt he received
against the stakes but had not that event occurred,
his physical powers were not adequate to beat his ad-.
versary in that stage of the battle.
After the first round, those who had made bets on
Eales endeavoured to edge-off, giving any odds;
The gentlenien amateurs had but little hopes of
betting, as the odds never varied during the fight.—
The contest, speaking of it in general terms, was,
perhaps, one of the smartest ever known. Twenty-
, three rounds were fought us twenty-two minutes. . 1
It is now a question whether Tom Belcher will
fight him, as he is considered a match. On this,
however, the amateurs have as yet made no proposi-
tion. The sailor fought under a true blue handker-
chief, which lie Ward tied to the ropes. Tom Bel-
cher tied his Belcher to it as the colours of Eales.---
Blue was triumpliant, and at least 5000 sailms
among the spectators hailed the victory with shouts
of triumph.
Two tights of minor importance succeeded between
students. One was remarkable for hard blows, but
neither were of sufficient interest to admit of detail.
The proceeding of Saturday -will form, on the
whole, a strong feature in the records of pugilism.

-Cmcitarmo.--The Grand Cricket Match, in
Lord's Ground, between the Epsom Club with MANN,
against the County of. Middlesex with ROMNSON, was
decided on Friday in (augur of Epsuat.—Epsom wen
by 346 runs in one innings. Bets at starting 12 to 10
in favour of Epsom.
DRINKINO.—Friday, a man of the name of Cassell,
undertook for a wager of 42, to swallow three late
and a quarters of gin! This disgusting feat be per-
formed, and soon tell into a state of ininensibility. He
was carried home upon a shutter, and though medi.
cal aid was called in, ate was.dead in a few hours af.l
?awards.
