BONING.

The anticiparlon of a good tit was realized at the clese.of
Chelmsford !laces. The seconds to the two brave men who
fought, were Crawley and Bob ihvis, for Hawley; a Spital-
fields Weaver, and Burn, of Woolwich, for the Charppion of Es-
sex (called the Essex Sweep). The turn-to was as follows:
In the first roum! the Champion of the Sweeps 'hewed muck
dexterity in the mil4tig art. He was well parried, but he
scented to know his work, and cleansed his man by tapping first
claret.-5 and 6t04 on the Sweep.
2. Sweep went to work, and knowing. he was contending
with a reputed good one, he slit his nose by a well regulated hit;
a good rallying round in favour of the Sweep, who hitherto had
lost no blood.

3 Souse smashing work took place, and the Sweep bad none
the worst of it. His adversary began to think about calling time,
and in two other rounds convincing proofs seemed to be the go.
6. The. butcher focght at points, and clatified the !lead inane
11 style. There was no giurificat ion about it, but the Sweep seetreil
to be going off. Ile did do so, and never after recovered ;in doiag
this he was hit down in a rally and in two other rounds gave up
the fight, with a head well punished. He was ukcu off the
ground in a stupificd state.
Bnth received heaiy hits, and were q•pite content to go to dub.
A Jew-boy, named Israel, lacked a native in six rounds. It
was a good fight and a merry one. The winner received one
guinea, as a reward of valour. .

A Jury was summoned, and an Inquest held by
Mr. MAGEE, Coroner for Armagh, on the 13th inst.
on the body of Michael Campbell, of Crossdawl, who
had been shot on the evening of the 12th inst. in
Cran, by (as was alleged) a party of Orangemen.—
Verdict—Murder, against six persons, with others
unknown. The Jury consisted of most respectable
men, partly Protestants and partly Roman Catholics.
Four of the six persons charged with the murder, ue
understand, are in jail.—Belfast News Letter.
Yesterday evening an Inquest was held at Sr. Bar-
tholomew's Hospital, before THOMAS SHELTON, Esq.
on the body of a girl named Sharp, who was knocked
down on the previous day in Bridge-street, by the
fore-horse of a waggon, the wheel of which went over
her body. Verdict—" Accidental Death."

The following melancholy occurrence took place
at Lincoln, on Wednesday evening, the 16th instant :
Three young men, a brother of Mr. Draycott's, dra-
per; John Marshall, son of Mr. Marshall, printer;
and Robert. the only son of Mr. Bristow, plumber
and glazier, intending to fish with a cast-net in a
part of the Witham, called Brayford, took a boat-
' builder's float or flat, such as are used for painting
and repairing vessels, for the purpose of crossing to
the opposite side of the river, but using their net when
near the middle, they injudiciously pressed to one
side, which occasioned the fiat gradually to submerge
in the water. The young men perceived it sinking
under them, but being' swimmers it excited no un-
easiness : in endeavouring to swim to the shore, how-
ever, Mr. Bristow's son, a very respectable youth,
WAS drowned, and the others did not reach the shore
without difficulty, one of them (Mr. Draycott) being
taken out almost exhausted. Immediate search was
tootle for the body, but upwards of an hour elapsed
before it was found. The usual remedie.4 were j er-
severed in for a considerable time, but in vain. Tl,
deceased was nineteen years of age. - A general feel-
ing of regret and sympathy has been excited in Lin-
coln by are fatal event.
