I.A WITH—STREET.
Mr. Mayon. of the Mackworth Amu, Commercial.road, was
summoned fur refusing to pay a hackney-coacbman one shilling
for back carriage. The complainant said he was engaged by the
defendant, at the corner of King•street, Borough, to convey
himself and family borne, and on his arrival he demanded three
shillings as his fare, which was refused. The defendant said he
bad been conveyed the same distance for the last thirteen years,
and was never charged back carriage, always contending that his
house was not off the stones, only a continuation of the paved street.
Complainant, In answer, said, that the defendant might u well say,
if he was taken as far as Blackwell that he ought not to pay back
carriage, the road being partially paved iu the middle; and if the
Magistrates decided against him, he hoped they would hear his
complaint against several Blackwell stage coachmen, for taking np
passengers between that place and London. The Magistrates, after
reading the Act of Parliament, were of opinion, that although the
Commercial-road was paved in the middle, it was not a continuation
of the pavement, and the defendant was ordered to pay the amount
and expenses.

FIGHT BETWEEN JENNINGS AND ROBINSON, FOR
.Ces A•SIDE

•» Paid

These two candidates for milling hcrnours, the former from " fit,
Land of Erin," and the latter from the Land o' Cakes," met
yesterday on Colney Heath, to decide two important points; first,
which was the better man, and next, which was best entitled to the
stakes of 150 for which they fought. The attendance of the Lou.
don amateurs was anything bat numerous, bring principally on.
fined to the immediate friends of the awn. The surrounding villaog,
however, furnished their quotas of recruits, and a tolerable waiter
of spectators gave animation to the circle.
Jenstinp first entered the ropes, and wee immediately followei
by Rubinson. 'Both looked in excellent condition, and appeared
equally confident. The former was attended by Peter Crawley ati4
Dick Curtis; and the latter by Tom Oliver and Charley Gyhletts.
Betting-6 to 4on Jennings.
THE FIGHT.

In commencing, both men were cautious, and each waited tit
attack of his opponent; at last Robinson caught Jennings on the
ribs with his left—but Jennings was awake, and delivered with his
right on the nob—a short rally followed, when Jennings rushed in,
closed and bit up, and then threw Ibobbwoon $ heavy fall. In the
second round, Jennings planted his left on Robinson's snuffler, draw-
ing first blood, and again closed, and threw hint cleverly. The battle
was by no means creditable to either petty, in a scientific point of
view. - No less than one hundred and twelve rounds were fought,
and the time occupied was two hours and a quarter • in the
112th round, when Jennings, with common judgment anti amiss,
might have made all safe, as Rubinson was retreating, be rushed in
for the throw, and catching him in a scrambling manner by tho
thighs, contrary to Broughton's rules, got bins down. An linat•
diate cry of foul arms, and the long looked-for oppostunity was
seized by Robinson's seconds, who immediately claimed Ake battle.
At last, after considerable delay and vehement contention, as to
whether Jennies'', conduct was strictly foul .r nut, the refies's ro
commended tbat it should be a drawn battle; being unwilling.,
the one band that Jennings should escape the conaeqnence of his
own indiscretion, and on the other that Robinson, who had lost at
hope of winning, should take advantage of a circumstance orbit%
was rather the effect of accident than design, and was even thee
still strongly disputed en all sides. The men then left the Ring—
with an understanding that they should have a meeting, to tee
whether they could not have another fight for the stakes before
they were drawn.
A second fight took place, between a young fellow named Clegg,
brother to Hob Clegg, who formerly fought Jennings, and Turner.
It was a love affair ; but " love's labour was sweetened by a stake
of Al a.side. The fight was infinitely superior to that by which it
bad been preceded, both is manliness and science. Turner took the
lead in beautiful style, and the hitting right and left on both sides
was excellent. The betting in the fifth round was 2tol in hisses
of Turner. fie received so heavily .afterwards from Clegg, bow.,
ever, that he fell gradually off, and in the 36:11 round was floored
in a state of perfect insensibility. Clegg was, of conne,pronousese
the winner. The fight la.ted 3a gninutes.

Saturday afternoon, one of the Inverkeithiag pinnaces,
with a crew of f..ur persons and two passengers oa
board, was upset in a 60411 not far from the cuter buoy,
between Leieh and Newhaven, and, with the exceptioe
of the skipper of the boat, all on board oetished. The
moment the accident was observed the Newhaven boat.
men with the greatest promptitude dispatched two
boats well manned, and the liar, ier sloop of war in the
!toads also dies a ched two, with the first and second
Lieutenant on b and .nd all the tour reached the spa
neatly at the same iostant ; but unfortunately only s. c.
ceeded in saving the skipper, the fullers having sunk 10
rise no more. One of the p.eserri.ers who I..st his lie
upon this occasion was a young man of the name oi
White, who had come from Glasgow by the canal, sad
was on his way to his father's at St. David's.

age. The pumps, when employed, always ke; tit two
feet within the hour, under head. It may now be con.
sidered as quite rectified, for on the gradual wt.rking
of the steam. engine, at 25 strokes. within the minute,
the pumps reduced the water within the shaft to the
depth abovementioned. Saturday, so far had the water
been exhausted, that its level sunk three feet below the
crown of the passages, and so unimportant has the
accident appeared, that it was only thought necessary
to occasionally bring the pumps info play.
The Malta letters received yesterday were dated the
2d instant, and announced the arrival there of his Ma•
jesty's frigate Dartmouth, from Marseilles. sad no., as
erroneously stated, from Portsmouth. The last advice'
from Tur key stated, that the confidence of the British
merchants was so far restored, as to have induced the
consignees to order the vessels and cargoes lately seat
from England to proceed direct to Constantinople.
The improvements in the Strand, from Ewer
'Change to Suuthampton.street, will commence in June
next ; but it is understood that the other improvements
in contemplation will not take place for two or thire
years for want of funds.
