In truth-Neate' 'eould'not plant a single effective hit.
In the fourth round, Neate asserts his arm received a
serious injury, 'and one of the small bones was broken.
We are sorry for this accident; but we have no hesi-
tation in asserting that Spring had won the battle
before it occurred. Spring 'has also removed the
libel Peons his character, that he could not make a
den/ in a pound of butter ! It cannot be denied that
Spring very soon made a &dein his opponent's head ! !
and from the conduct of the latter, it should seem
that " one pill was a dose." Spring called on Neate
after the battle, whom he found in bed, and his um
put to rights by a surgeon. The latter said, " I ant

Spring very generously made Neate a present Of ten
pounds. Spring arrived in town last night, and •re-
ceived the shouts and smiles attendant on -victory,
from the populace in all the towns through which he
passed. He has a slight black mat kon his left eye;
his arm was in a sling, one of the bones of his right
hand having received an injury.
• SECOND FIGDT.,•
A second and very manly battle, for a purse, took
place between Pope, a farrier, from Hampshire, anti
Parsons, a Bristol man, who stood much cutting-up
for about twelve minutes.
It was a harassing day for man and horse, and
the inns through all the towns from Andover tnEg-
ham were full, and not a post-horse could be had at
any price, excepting by those who had retained, and
most of those were beat to a stand-still. The:arrange-
ments were made, (or the Bath Road.
Nothing could exceed. the anxiety of thousands on
Tuesday night to knew the fesult and particulars df
the battle between' Spring and Neate. Intelligence
Was received by pigeons, it was said, in the evening,
and such was the manceuvring of the black legs, that
there was betting on the-result of .the battle, on the
number ofround, and the time it was fought, until
three o'clock in the morning. The houses resorted to
by the fancy were crowded-to excess, and the Hay-
market was scarcely passable from the numbers•that
assembled opposite the house of Cribb'; the .same
was the case at the Castle, kepi by Bel.cher. In. Hol-

lancing the Accounts. Consols opened at 791, and went up to

posed to have contributed to the improvement of our Consols, as
well as the immense Bear Account. The difference during the
