TROTTING MATCH.
A match for £OO son. was attempted yesterday morning, on the
Staines road, by a Gentleman named Bullock, who undertook to
produce a mare to do fifteen miles in an hour and three minutes, in
a lofty vehicle driven by a youth, weighing seven stone. The mare
did the first five miles in 20 minutes, after once backing the whesis
for galloping. She kept steady at her work, doing each mile within
a few seconds of four minutes, under or over, and the tenth mile
was completed in 40 minutes and five seconds. when she began to
fret, and made two breaks from the trot in the twelfth mile. The
hour and three minutes bad expired when the mare was within 200
yards of home, and the match was consequently lost. Mr. Bullock
then offered to match his mare for 100 sows. to trot the match spin
in the course of a month.

CURIOUS ROWING MATCH.
Tbelliver, between Westminster Bridge and Vauxhall, presented
an animated scene yesterday, in consequence of a rowing match be-
tween sixteen fishermen, in their peter boats. Nelson, the Water.
bailiff, had contrived to make up a purse, for which the rowers con-
tended with great spirit. The' firat bort was entitled to £5, the
second £4, the third se3, the fourth £2, and the remaining boats to
£1 each. The contending parties, in their clumsy boats, afforded
considerable mirth to the lovers of aquatic novelty.
DEVONSHIRE AND CORNWALL WRESTLERS.
The wrestling among the Devonshire and Cornwall mechanics
,efident in London, for prizes given by Mr. Reuse, landlord of the
Eagle Tavern, City-road, commenced yesterday morning, and eon.
tinned till dusk, in the presence of a respectable muster of the
amateurs of this athletic sport. On this occasion the natives of
each county contended among themselves for the sums given, and
not as before, county against county. The prises were—for the best
of each county £5. for the second best £3, and for the third best
£l. First double player for each county 10s. every other double
player 5,.
The men played according to the respective systems of their
counties. The Cornish men without shoes or kicking, and the
Devonshire men with shoes, and to kick as muck as they
liked, their legs being covered with pads, to prevent the mis-
chief which would otherwise accrue. Tim Cornish men to be
entitled to enter as double players, and to throw one man, and stand
against another man for ten minutes without being thrown; and the
Devonshire men had either to throw two men, or stand against two
and throw one, which rules were mutually agreed upon, and each
county bad its own umpires and referee. Among the players were
most of those men who exhibited at the last meeting; but there
were many new faces, and the sport upon the whole was kept up
with great spirit.
It is in contemplation to match a second rate Cornishman aphist
Gaffney, the Irish Wrestler, so that his merits may be put to the
test before be enters the lists with Abraham Cann, the Devonshire
Champion.
