PU . fI.ISM.

It has been few frame time known that a battle was
to h. fought between Pittoon. the Jew. ani Weald,
the C .ac 'van, for a fithfcription purre of so guineas.
The vtgilaoce of the Maeißrates around the meter-'
polls ha. lately been fo great to prevent (cents of this
kind from taking place. that much caution was ufed
to keep teeter the time and place of conteft. It was
not till Sunday night that Wilfden Green was nam-
ed as the fcene of adion on the following day. This
was the memorable fporon which fo much prnwefs
was dorplayed between Towt Tough and the Knight-
bridge coachman, a few months ago. It will be re-
anernueted that Wind is a veteran in the pugiliftic
art. He has fought many hard battles, and feldom
led to triumph over his a:verfary. His vidory
over George the Brewer, rot ill long be remembered in
the records rat pugitifm. Pittoon is a young man,
and has be it Jones and Maddox of the old fchool.—
Wood had Cuserinr strength and length of 'arm to
oppnfe again!! Pittnon's youth and (deuce; Co that
there were no odds at Ratting.
To prevent interruption, it was agreed that the
fight Mould take place at ten o'clock. Accordingly,
at * very early hour, the amateurs were in motion.
A greater toncourfe of people we never witneffed on
any fimilar occafion. Ar the appointed hour the
field of battle was filled with fpedators.
The ring being formed exadly at three-quarters
pail ten o'clock, the combatants entered it. Wood
ft. lisped, and appeared in excellent condition;
Fittonn alfo teemed in good fpirits, and the battle
commenced without any linguine opinion being en-
tertained on either ride.
Faol Assad —Woini !truck the fir!! and fccond
bin,* over his antagonill's guard, but made little im-
prefllnn. Pittoon returned them with his right hand
--hard hitting enfued on both fides. Wood proving
ilia Itrungelt. heat Pittoon again!! the rope which fur-
rounded the ring, by which he was entangled. This I
gave Wood an opportunity of making good feveral
blows. At length Pittoon fell, and Wood had evi-
(Seedy the advantage.
&wad Rauh—Wood took the lead in the fidt
blow, and Pattonn made feveral Rraightforward hits.
In rallying, Merton gave way, andffell.
'bird Rearet, —Very Runt, but *sup fighting.—

' commencentent, which was followed by (reseal hard
blows n both fides. The blond flowed eopinufly

Ade. Wood, net the other hand, endeavnered to pre-
vent him, which produced a great deal of 'stamen.

wails to lb*, and being beat to the fide of the rng,
fells brit the odds dui ant vary, it appeared ihat
ifttoon loft no firength, whilfl his opponent began
• to walk by his extraordinary exertions.

doled nn Pitman, and threw him ; whin, Piterinn
was on Isis back. Wood patted him nn the head, by
way of triumpb ; Pitman returned the compliment
te Wand.

to have 1,1 his temper, and he ran at Wood with
fury. who. hitdag out with his left hand, brought
Fianna to the grounds such billing at Pittnon, and

blows, but confctous of loperior Rreng,h, ran in and
threw him.
Frio de Eleventh to the Fifteenth Rosestl.—A great
deal of revere hitting took place, but no blows which
were likely to decide the battle. Pitmen fought*
with great e lotion, and flopped f • 1 defperate
blows with great &111, and hit again with the fame
hand This was a manoeuvre he learnt from
Mendoza, which proved on this occafion extremely
luceel.ful.
Fifteenth, Revd.—This round was likely to have
proved fatal to Wond, who, on rallying his oppo-
nent, was hit by him a revere blow in the flomach,
which brought him to the ground, where he lay a
co.ifiderable time. A general cry of " Time !
Time !" was vociferated round the ring. Wood tried
to conform to the rules of boxing, by meeting his
antagonitl within the time allowed, but it was not in
his power. However, to prevent difputcs, the battle
was (offered to go on, as foon as Wood was able to
flat J. The multitude ilippoling at this time that the
battle was over, bro!ze in the ring, and a general
confusion took glare, which gave Wood time to re•
cover. The odds were now ten to one againik the
Coachman.

tomsol wcakiiefs. and Pittoon, who feemcd in frill
vi ti• ur, did lint exert his full flrength againil him,
finding that a gentle pule was futlicient to knock
him Jowl,. it was generally fappofed that Wood
could not (land another round ; indeed he intimated
to his fecund, that hi' Ihould nut be able to hold out
much loner.
lighttenth Round—Wand, to the furprize of his
friends, rallied again, and teemed quite invigorated,
and it was thought he had the bell of this round.
