FATAL BOXlNG.—Sunday se'nnight, a battle was
fought at Worston, Hams, between John Ventham
and William Brown, when the latter received a blow
on the left side, of which he languished till the fol-
lowing morning, and then died.—Coroner's Verdict—
Chance Medley.
The following method of deterring the bull, or
any of his species, from running at persons, is trans-
mitted to us by a correspondent, with a desire ca
preventing a recurrence of the dreadful accidents
which we have so frequently related :—« On enter-
ing a pasture or field, where a bull is feeding, take
off your hat and carry it between your teeth, at the
same time holding up both hands and arms as high
as possible." Walking through the field in this man-
ner, says our Correspondent, causes much alarm and
fright amongst all sorts of cattle.

ELOPYWNT.—Tuesday, a beautiful young Lady, seventeen
years of age, eloped with the son of her father's head clerk,
twenty years of age, who had just returned home from sea.—
Her father, Mr. A. a respectable and opulent brewer, residing
in Norwich, traced the fugitives to London. He gave informa-
tion at the Police Office, Hatton-garden, and William Read,
jun. was deputed to assist Mr. A. in the inquiry. They pro-
ceeded to Doctors' Commons, where they learned that the young
man had just taken out a license, on affidavit that the young
Lady was above twenty-one years of age, and that they were to
be married neat morning (Friday last), at the parish church of
St. Andrew, Holborn. Mr. A. on representing that his daugh-
ter was a child under age, procured an order to forbid the cler-
gyman from marrying them. He lost no time in presenting the
order, and on Friday morning he took his station facing •the
church, on Holborn-hill, watching the arrival of the fugitives..,
Mr. A. did not wait long before he observed the youth, in corn- I
pany with another Gentleman, and gave him in charge to the
street-keeper, who took him in custody. The young Lady, who
was disguised in a black bonnet and boriowed clothes, walked
on the opposite side of the street, In company with the gentles
woman in whose house she lodged, steins her father and what
followed, she fled, unperceived. Mr. A. promised Read afarge
reward if he could recover his lost child in the coarse of the
• day, and Reed fortunately discovered her about four o'cloCk the
same afternoon, disguised in the dress of a maid-servant, in a
respectable house in the neighbourhood of the Coburg Theatre.
By the persuasion of the Lady of the house and the officer, she
dressed herself In her own clothes and returned to her father,
who received her with all paternal affection, and took her under
his own care. The disappointed youth was then liberated.
