TURN-UP BETWEEN WARD AND SAMPSON.
Theeefistic heroes, who have twice met in the prize ring, recently
set out on a sparring tour.
Ward and Sampson rank most decidedly first, and had they gone
one hundred miles to fight a match, as in two former cases, thou •
sands from London would have followed them to see a busing match
not equal to the ooe they fought at Norwich, on Friday last fur re
vents and love. They bad gone out together on a sparring tour,
and there having been a difference between Them respecting the
spoil, they agreed in their next set-to to fight it out with the gloves
on. The fact get known, sad the door-money was plentiful indeed.
They were seconded by amateurs, and nine severe hammering
rounds were fought.
Round 1. Sampson made first play in a manly rush, but he was
parried, and got away without mischief. He renewed the attack,
and a smart rally followed. Sampson was thrown, with slight marks
of crimson hue within his lips.
2. Another severe round, and many bits were exchanged. &nip-
soi showed much determination, but he was coolly parried untilthe
end or the round, when he got dose in, and had nose the worse of it.
3. Sampsod was met on the as frentis at commencing his work,
and the claret flew most barbarously, and he fell forward.
4. A very same round, and Sampson showed himself a real
fighting man. They mixed their claret, as Bacchanalians would
drink out of one glass. A rally of two minutes followed with
equal advantages, but Sampson was thrown.
5. Ward displayed his superiority in this round in a wonderful
manner, by hitting and getting away, and disposed of his adversary
by weaving, with much loss of crimson hue on Sampson's past.
6. The last good round, and Sampson made desperate fighting,
but it was useless, as he was dropped cleanly.
7. Sampson lost the strength of his rush, and he was hit down
again.
$ and 9. Sampson had no chance, and Ward had no occasion to
exert himself, further ,than to keep away and prevent mischief.
Ward still had to use much caution to win, and the spectators
who saw the two former battles, declared this to be the must severe
had the gloves been of.
We have not heard that this difference has produced a disoo-
ludon of partnership, and we have only to hope that in future their
tour may be conducted upon more friendly terms.
Three customers are waiting for Ward's return to town, among
whom, we believe, White Headed Bob ranks foremost. There is
also a claimant for his favours coming from Brighton, named Hud-
son (a relation to Josh), who stands high among the provincials.

Amnng the creditors of the bankers Fries, of Vienna,
is the Frank house, Aleoys and Co. of Constantinople,
to the extent of 240,C00 imperial guilders. These
Franks made remittances to the house of Fries, to pay
for the ships c f war which %vete built at Marseilles on
account of the Putt?, not of the Pacha of Egypt, as has
bee:: repo: tcd.

POLIO INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION HOUSE:

The LOAM Masoa addressee the Police in the Justice Rum,
and said, that ou Sunday afternoon, whibt Mr. Prier, she
smith of Gracechurch-street, bad gone with his family to the
Meetinghouse, his premises had been entered by false keys, sr.,(
goods were stolen to the amount of 'about 300 f. This oceun,4
near to the station of the officer in the open day, and within tt,t,,,
of a number of passeogers, as well as the persons beionaing vutt
coaches. Ilia Lord,hip Complained that such a robbery could o• Ay
occur from the extreme remissness of the Police =car ,Jr
district.

_
Nlr. ilnows. the Mantua, mkt, air if persons left property is
exposed, it was more than the pollee could do to protretlt. lioush
keepers had been over and over again wanted that if they did lane
their houses at suck times, them could be ODD, but themselves :4
blame if any depredations were committed.
The LORD %von differed entirely In opinion from it. 11aNt2i.
If the officers did their duty, housekeepers might leave their funk.,
for such short times In perfect security. Mr. Prior had, for re
years, been in the habit of going to the Meeting/4nm* with his
family, and of taking his• servant with him. N. ',ugh re,t,,riti
were heard of in Paris ; and If the officers who were apptr;nted
watch the streets did their duty, noise would be heard of bett.4
The robbery was evidently effs=ed by known thieves, and their,
or any other known characters, ought to end it impossible to mete
in such a street as that.

An officer said it was of little tile watching them, for they knee,
the officers too well to do any thing whilst they were near. itree,
took care scot to commit depredations whilst officers were near.
The Loess Alarea...-Theo you should watch so if to present
Limn) committing soy. You might, if it were necessary, get reran,
to watch who are unknown to thieves. I pointed out three 0,,,r1„
cious characters to you is the streets yesterday. Now verp•ti
see such as them together, eostmou souse *add telt you it i, roe
some ill purpose, and you should watch them. So with the/deers
of the night, a thief, or a suspected person, should be wackier
through the street by the watchman or patrol. and the arati,i:l
should be given from best to, best, that web a character i• va.ll
the prowl. You are not to let him yam on,and give ?ourselves r„
concern about him, midi you hear that a depredation he, h,
committed. This is the mood robbery which has bee* commute
in this street within a short time, and I expect that the thieves w,u
by foetid, or the property recoVered.
The °Mars said, there was no probability of fading out tie
thieves • and the recovery of the property was next to impossible.
The Loss blavoa—Lltsn't talk to use. Sir, of impossibilities in
such cases; I will Not hear of than. What are you employed for
but to watch the indolent amid depraved ? A man who does not
walk idly about the streets, Sot makes it his bovines+ to watch them,
may know them and their cemserisin. and be able to pursue thqn
in all their haunts. When such semi OCCdr, blame is justly aura-
-1 butabie to the office.

The Oilim bowed to this opledos. sat thee the ease terminated.
