THIRD FIGHT.

The Birmingham Youth and Dolly Smith.—After the amateurs
had dined at the Bed Lion, at I lampton, a purse of ten guineas
was subscabed for a match bctwcen the Birmingham Youth and
Dolly Smith. The Hurst was again resorted to, and about six
o'clock thc combatants set-to ; and, after a sharp fight of about
three quarters of an hour, Smith was defeated. This was the
best fight of the three.

Among the Perfarr.s.ers engaged by Mr. Ewa-
TON, for Drury-lane Theatre, are MTS. 11. JOHNSTON,
late of Covent-Garden Theatre, Mr. DOWTON, and
Mr. MUNUEN.

Mr. KEAN has entered into a treaty with Mr. HAR-
ars to perfc cm twenty nights at Covent-Garden, after
which he embarks for America.

Mr. A T.:cm') and Miss KELLY, it is said, have pur-
chased the Olympic Theatre.
lianoxu. ECILE.—It is reported that the ad-
ventures of the Countess of o—, in this extraordi-
nary production, are related with stricter fidelity and
more minuteness of detail, than those of the hero
himself.

BamtNo.—The Essay on this important subject,
lately publiz.hed by Sir ARTHUR CLARK; seems en-
titled to marked consideration, particularly at the
present season of the year. The Gazette of Health,
in reviewing it, observes, " Water of different degrees
of temperature, and particularly in a state of vapour,
May unquestionably be employed as a powerful auxi-
liary to medicine in the treatment of nearly all the
diseases that assail human nature, and as a preven-
tive of many of the most formidable, more power-
ful than medicine itself. The author, a proprietor of
one of the largest establishments of Baths in the Uni-
ted Kingdom, relates, in his Essay, the result of pei-
sonal experience and observation, and has pointed out,
with the canddbr of a man of science, the diseases
and the circumstances in which they may prove inju-
rious: his Work will be found to convey more useful
instruction, and more valuable practical remarks,
than any that has appeared on the subject."
.ACCILIZNT.- A poor man, named Puddy, of William
street, Poplar-row, met iiis death yesterday while in
the act of unloading a timber waggon, at Mr. George
Glasier's, timber merchant, of Drury-lane. %lae
renders the fate of this man more heart-rending is,
that he has been for some time out of employ, and
has left a wife and four helpless young children whblly
destitute of every comfort of life.

LAW ISTELLIGEXCE.

COURT OF CUANCtRY, 4UGUS7 94.
GORDON V. GORDON.

The LORD CHANCELLOR again mentioned this case.
Taking it for granted that the agreements must be
set aside, he wished to know if the parties had con-
sidered what was to be done with regard to the rents '
and profits for the time past.
Mr. Ross, on the part of defendant, Mr. Jas.
Gordon, said they had prepared minutes on the sub-
ject, but he did not know if these had yet been
handed to the other side. There was one point, he
said, to which his client wished to direct the atten-
tion of his Lordship. His Lordship, in delivering
judgment, had commented on a letter written by Mrs.
Gordon, the mother of the partles, to Mr. Harry
Gordon, the plaintiff; and had given it as his opi-
nion that she could not have made use of these words,
1 have not erred from the rules of honour, nor de-
viated from the paths of virtue," unle.s here had
been a private marriage. Now, the object of Mr.
James Gordon was to connect the letter with a pas-
sage iri the petition presented in 1818, with the view
of shewing that the plaintiff himself understood the
letter in question, to be evidence of a private mar-
riage, and that consequently they dealt on equal
terms, even supposing the defendant to have known
at the time the agreement' was entered into, that a
private marriage had taken place. He trusted bis
Lordship would pardon the liberty he took in offer-
ing this suggestion, and would consider him as only
discharging his duty by complying with the wish of
his client.

The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the Learned Gentle-
man had acted very properly in communicating the
wish of Mr. Gordon to the Court. He added that
be was anxious to get rid of the matter altogether,
before the termination of the present sittings.

MANSION-House.—Notwithstanding that the doors.
of the Mansion-House were closed yesterday to a late
hour, and that the interested and curious were told
that neither Mr. Blaniford nor Mr.Garlisle would be
\brought up, the contrary was the case.
The Loan MAYOR, who had left the Mansion-
House early in the morning, accompanied by Mr.
Holmaa, for the Office of the Secretary of State, re-
turned shortly before three o'clock. His Lordship
immediately dispatched Hawkins and Fogg, the
Marshalmen, to bring up Carlile and Blandford
from the Compter. They arrived shortly before four
o'clock, when orders were giVen to open the gates,
but to admit none but respectable persons, and those
on business.
Wooler and several other Piethls of Carlile were
already waiting in the Office of the Marshals, and
notwithstanding the unexpectedness of the transac-
lion, a multitude quickly collected round the place.
Wooler, CarP'e, and Blandford, were each cheered,
as on Monday, upon being recognized by the crowd.
Soon after the Loan Mnyoa had taken his seat;
he directed Blandford (who had been sitting some
time) to be brought to the Bar, when he thus ad-
dressed him :

LORD Mnyon.—Mr. Blandford, it is unnecessary
for me to detain you now ; it is not in my power to
accept at present any bail which yoq might propose,
nor indeed should I be justined in holding oat the
hope to you that you can be bailed at all. At pre-
sent, however, 1 shall remand you for one week ; and
if upon a further consideration of the charge exhibit-
ed against you, hail is determined to be allowed, you
shall have the earliest intimation of the fact. I men-
tion this, as it seems to me unfit that you should be
day after day made a spectacle of at the Bar.
Blandford.--Remanded for a week did you say,
my Lord ? I trust there is nothing so serious against
ms as to preclude the admissibility of bail.
The LORD MAYOR—I feel much for you, but I
have stated that it is impossible, at once, to decide on
your case. You shall be made acquainted with the
fact the moment it is decided that you can be bailed,
or whether bail altogether will be refined.
Blandford.—l bow, as I find I must, to your Lord-
ship's determination ; but permit me 'to return you
my grateful thanks for the kindattention and com-
fort J have received since my apprehension, under
your Lordship's auspices.
The LORD MAYOR.—I should be happy to afford
you more.—Blandford then bowed and retired.
The LORD MAYOR was now acquainted by Mr.
Wontner, the Marshal, that Mr. Carlile was only
waiting for the arrival of his proposed bail, Mr. Ful-
ham. His Lordship said, that was but a double waste
He hid decided respecting the proffered
bail, and 11,1 r. Carlile might be brought up. He was
accordingly introduced from the Marshal's room,
accompanied by Mr.Wooler and several other friends,
among whom was Mr. Lindsay, one of the Society
of Friends, who entered the Justice Room and re-
mained with his hat on. One of the Officers, how-
ever, quickly uncovered him. Mr. Carlile being
placed at the Bar,
The LORD MAYOR said—Mr. Carlile, I have in-
quired into the. situation of one of your proposed bail,
Mr. Wooler, and I find that he is not. a housekeeper.
The house 58, Sun-street, Bishopsgate-street, is inha-
bited by a Mr. Steele.—Mr. Wooler—The house is
mine ; I pay the rent and taxes for it, and it is the
publisher of my Paper who resides there.
The LORD MATOR.—I cannot, Mr.Wooler,:accept
your bail.
Mr. Carlile said, that as Mr. Wooler's bail was re-
fused, he had to propose Mr. Lindsay (the gentleman
before alluded to), who was present.
The LORD MAYOR delired him to stand forward,l
and to give his Christian name and address.
Mr. Lindsay.—My name is William; I am a mer-
chant, residing at No. 9, Claremont-place, Pentonville.
The LORD MAYOR.-4 shall require eight and forty
hours to inquire into the validity of this bail, and I
beg in the mean time to ask Mr. Lindsay, whether
he is bail for Mr. Carlile in any other case?
Mr. Lindsay.—Yes, upon one other charge, namely,
an indictment at the instance of the Society for the
Suppression of Vice.
A Gentleman named Poole here stood forward,
who said that if his Lordship had the slightest doubt
of the validity of Mr. Lindsay's bail, that gentleman
would instantly pay down the fall amount of the
security required.
_ _

The Logo MATOR.—I have nothing whatever. rip
do with the receipt of money for the Exchequer, nor
am I authorised to take it in lieu of bail.
Mr. Carlile.—lf your Lordship receives the full

' amount of bail, it is all you can require. Your ob.
. •
bail, is evidently 'with a view to annoy me.

The L
wanton -and unjust attack upon my own character.
I have already answered it, and my duty as well as
my-conscience tells me, that injustice towards you or
any man in such a case cannot actuate my co.adi,ct.
Mr. Carlile.—lt is impossible for me to dismiss
from my mind that your Lordship is prejudiced to-
wards me. A most respectable merchant has of-
fered himself as my bail; and when you refuse to v.:-
cept it without forty-eight .honrs consideration, lie
offers* you the entire security in money, which you
also determine not to receive. I presume your Lord-
ship is nut afraidto take the current coin of the realm?
The LORD MAYOR.—I have given my decision. I
regret I cannot set you at large.
Mr. Carlile.—There is not another Magistrate in
the City of London, or elsewhere, that would ,efuse
respectable bail under the circumstances but yourself.
The LORD MAYOA made no reply.
Mr. Carlile.—Am Ito under,.!and, then, that Mr.
Fulham (who by this time had arrived) my other pro.
posed bail, will be accepted ?
The LORD MAYOR.—Most certainly.
Mr. Wooler then requested that his Lordship would
allow him to say a word in Lxplatution as to the na-
ture of his holding in Sun-street, Ilishopsgate.
The LORD Mitvort.— I don't see, Sir, that you and
I need have any explanation or conversation toge-.
they. I have made the best inquties I could, and.am
acting upon them according to my best judgment.
Its Lordship now retired into his private parlour.
Dui Mg the time that the fresh warrant of commit-
ment for want of bail was making out by the Chief
Clerk, Mr. Carlile and his friends consulted together
in the Great Hall, as to the expediency of applying
saofdos
efintttthhaweeas

BOVi-STREET.—Yesterday William Watling, of No.
409, Strand, was brought to the OfE,:e by Bishop,
the OffiCer, charged with publisbilg Sherwin Weekly
Political Register, No. 16, (the number which was
published last Saturday), containing a wicked and
scandalous libel, imputing the crime of murder to the
Magistrates and Yeomanry Cavalry of Manches-
ter. The rest is exactly the same as Dolby, of
Wardoer-street, was charged with on Monday. The
prisoner pleaded got Guilty.
The Magistrate asked him what,business he was?
The prisoner replied, a news agent.
James Ellis, a Constable.be.longing to this Office,
stated, that on Monday afternoon he went to the pri-
soner's shop, in the Strand, and purchased the above
described pamphlet. He was served by a young wo-
man, and paid her two-pence. lie inquired if that
was the last Number of that publlcation% and was an-
swered by the prisoner that it was. On Saturday he
purchased the same Number of that Work at the pri-
soner's shop, in the Strand.
_ _

The Magistrate informed the prisoner, he should
require very good bail for the offence with which he
was charged.
The prisoner replied, he expected Mr. Ritchie, ba-
ker, of the Strand, and some other friends, to bail him.
The prisoner was then taken away, and in a shoat
time after, Mr. Ritchie and Mr. Mason, baker, of
Chapzl-street, Grosvenor-place, offered to bail him.
The prisoner was admitted to bail, himselfin 10(1.
and Ritchie and Mason, for his appearance at the
next Middlesex Sessions, ::;0/. each.
. _

John Booth, lately a clerk and letter-sorter, was
brought to the Office from the House of Correction,
where he had been committed for, a fortnight, and
underwent a second examination before H. BIRNI
•Esq. charged with feloniously ste ding bank-notes out
ofletters, while employed in his official duty. He
was fully committed for trial.

UNION HALL.—'fhe man who carried the bcard
on Kennington Common, announcing that the Meet-
ing had been " deferred" to Wednesday, continued
parading about till four o'clock, when he was appre-
hended by Hall, Goff, and Collingbourn, Union Hall
Officers. At ten o'clock at night he was examined
before Mr. CRAM/MRS, who had ordered the man to
.be taken in custody, in consequence of a letter from
the Lord Mayor.
,On the " Order, order!" side of
the board, there was one of the printed bills signed
by " the CoMmittee," and naming the Meeting for
Wednesday. The prisoner said his name was Samuel
Waddington; he was the printer of the hand-bill on
the board, and he was also one of the Middlesex
Committee. He was set at liberty on his promise to
appear yesterday morning. He accordingly ap-
peared, and at one o'clock, when Mr. Chambers had
returned to the Office, Waddington was sent off in a
coach to the Lord Mayor, accompanied by Hall and
the board, Mr. Chambers desiring it to be stated that
he had no charge against this man.
Quasi-matunar.—Yesterday a woman, of decent'
appearance, was charged by a Lieutenamin thesavyi
with assaulting him-, near Astley's Theatre, and 'next
day coming to his house, and then' assaulting his
-wife, to whom he had been recently married. He
admitted that he had known the prisoner while his
ship once lay at Spithead.—Tbe unfortunate prisoner
said, she had been deceived by the complainant, who
took her to his'father's house, in Berkshire, and gave
her out to be his wife. Soon after he quitted her,
without any intimation, and she found he.had mar-
' ried another woman. She was bailed by a person 3c-
cidentally in the'Police Office.
