BOXING.

Yesterday morning a good sprinkling of the Fancy mustered
at an early hour in I larper's-fields; Nlary.la-bonne, to witness,
a batile hi tween George lUard (a pupil of Bill Kaki) and a
Knigla of the Itaintnne, fur a guinea a-side. The latter, it seems,
was always in training at his master's plentiful hoard, and being
well &Laced out, and having little work to do, was upon suck
prince terans with himself, that he took.the shine out of all the
cores in his master's neighbourhood, by threatening to serve them
in quick time, and sheaving light on alt occasions. Lots of ser-
vants out of place, and also numbers in sorritude, left their dabs
by peep-o'day to get a viand at the soil; in fact, " the Livery"
have not mustered so strongly for a long time past. The Knight
lase Rainbow is a Herefordshire man, and he selected his coon-
tryinan Skiing, and Clark, for his seconds; and Filard was
picked up by Tales and Paddington Jones. The combatants
started in rattlers from their cribs, in the vicinity of Manchester
squ.u•e, and the whole affair was an attempt at cutting a swell by
the " high life below stairs ' party. Ellard was not fit to fight
fur pins, mostly training in a tap-room, with bad tnawleys and a
sprained ancle. The betting, however, was rather brisk, at
S and 6 bobs to four ; and lota of Army fret, laid in small quanti-
ties, among the kid4ygr.ionts and sosll Jartrys, depended upon
this event. The lads of the pantry were all alive upon the sub-
ject, and the whole fraternity of sarrants felt for the honour of
their calling, and anxious for their hero to prove triumphant. In
the course of 45 minutes, however, the Kaight of the Rainbute
was most severely punishiv/ and defeated by the superior scions .
of his opponent ; his nab exhibited more colours than his coat,
and he had no chance whatever. lie was the stronger man of
the two, and had the best of the throwing ; but as to making
any good hits it was out of the question, as he was quite a no.
vice. It occupied eighteen rounds. " The Livery" left the scene
of action rather chop-fallen; observing, they h4tl been decoyed
out upon a bad Sad; and the poor Knight was taken Lome a very
pretty picture to decorate the establishment of his master !

The Court Mourning finally terminated yesterday,
the last official notice being that the Court go out of
mourning this day.
Mr. AUSTIN, who lately arrived with Lord and
Lady Hoop, and Lady ANNE HAMILTON, from the
Continent, has taken up his residence at the late
QUEEN'S house, in South Audley-street.
Thursday night last, Miss HEATH, governess in
the family of the Duke of NEWCASTLE, died suddenly
at Cluniber, his Grace's seat. After passing the even-
ing in higher spirits than usual, and retiring to her
room at eleven o'clock, she was seized with a fit of
apoplexy, and expired in a feW seconds, in the arms
ola female domestic.

Last night two corn-porters, father and son-in-law,
having some words at the house of Mr. May, the
Three Tuns, Back-street, Horsleydown, the former,
on quitting the room, was followed by his son-in-law,
who gave him so severe a blow on the head, as to
kill him on the spot. The offender was immediately
taken into custody. The Coroner's Inquest will sit •
on the body this afternoon.
Wednesday senilight, Lady BARKER, while riding
with some Ladies in her carriage, near Hove, met
with an alarming accident. The coach was over-
turned, and her Ladyship, as well as the other Ladies,
were severely bruised. Mrs. COUTTS, who had been
for a ride, and was returning to Brighton, happened
to pass by at the moment in her carriage, and under.
took to send the party a coach from an inn at
Brighton, to convey them home. With her usual
kindness, however, Mrs. COUTTS did not wait while
a vehicle could be procured, but sent her own chariot
for the purpose. No serious effects have resulted
from the accident.

A very serious accident occurred on Saturday, in
Norwich : a Gentleman driving a phaeton, in which
were Mr. CRAWCUR, a Lady, and another Gentleman,
over the Castle Meadows, the horses took fright and
ran away, when Mr. CRAWCUR and the other Gen-
tleman jumped out, and both if them had the mis-
fortune to break their legs ; Mr. CRAWCUR in so shock-
ing a manner, that he was obliged to undergo im-
mediate amputation. The driver and the Lady kept
their seats, and received no injury. The horses were
stopped near St. Augustine's-gate.
Sunday last, the mail from Liverpool to Manches-
ter was upset at Eccles, in turning from the old into
the new road, and the coachman, John Dixon, who
formeily kept a public-house at the same place, was
thrown with great violence from the box, which
broke his leg, and shattered his knee almost to pieces.
The guard and passengers escaped with little injury.
Sunday evening last, as a post•boy was attempting
to return over the IJlverston Sands with a chaise and
pair, he from sonic unknown cause, missed the usual
track ; the tide flowed in upon them, when the driver
and a sailor (who was inside the chaise), with both
the horses, were drowned.

Thursday se'nnight, tile hop-houses, sir in number,
belonging to J. WILLS, Esq. at Brenchley, were buciat
to the ground. The fire originated from a quantity
of leased 11 het being placed round the hearth to
dry, to which some of the si,atks communicated.

The body of Mr. MACKENZIE, Master of the Julia,
.a vessel trading between Newcastle and Perth, was
found on the shore of the river Tyne, near St. Pe-
ter's Quay, apparently having been drowned. The
circumstance, however, of the hat, coat, waist-
coat, and boots of the deceased being mi,sing, and
his head much injured, tendered the cause of his
death doubtful. A Coroner's Laittest was on Mon-
day held on the body, when the Jrry returned the
following verdict:—" Found drowned, but with
marks of suspicion of having received some violence
from a person or persons unknown."
A lad of the name of Barnet, about 16, belonging to the Bri-
tish Union, of North Shields, fen from the vessel, off Gravesend,
on the 15th in,t. and broke both his legs and thighs. Ha was
a quarter of an hour in the water before he was ',LAW up.
