MOSS AND THOMPSONI.

The match between Harry Moss, the Gypsey, attd
Thompson, the Berkshire man, both acknowledged
good men, under twelve stone, which was to have
taken place at Iledgley, within a few miles of Dork-
ing, in Surrey, took place in a paddock belonging to
a Air. Mills, at Farndon, ten miles from the ap-
pointed spot, the boxers having been drawn thither
by an extra subscription purse of £2O, in addition to
the £4O. they fought for. Moss was seconded by
another Gypsey, and Thompson by Nares, a-naviga-,
tor.—Betting 5 to 4 upon the Gypsey.
In the first round Thompson had his cork drawn, in a brisk
rally, in return for which Moss was floored by a chance body hit.
In their eageniess for assauk each missed intended hits,
and closed, wheu Thompson had ?doss's head safely under the
left arm, In a manner in which Randall would have given him a
suficient dose ; hut the Gypsey slipped out of his adversary's
clutches without harm, and they broke from e;_rli other. Ef
this time exertion had tamed them, and they worked with more
deliberation. A severe round was knelt, and it was difficult
to say which had the h:st. Moth fell weak. The round lasted
seventeen minutes.
S. At it they went again in bull-dog fashion ; hitting was the
order of the round, and Thompson cast out a front tooth. A
severe rally ended the round, by the Gypiey bring knocked
down with asi -nay blow on the left side; this blow settled the
battle, which 11:d now lastuil twenty-two minutes.
The Gypsey came to the scratch doubled-up seven
other roundF. In the 11th round Nature had turned
him up, and he was dead to time, and lost the fight
in thirty-seven minutes.
It was a ruffianing fight, and if fought over again
. the Gypsey would have a right to win it.

A male otter was killed on Tuesday se'nniPght in the
Stour, near Grove Ferry, by Mr. E..EPS, of the
Ferry-house, whi di measured four feet three inches in
length, and two feet four inches in girt, round the
body. It weighed %/Vbs. and tbegirt of the taikwas
13 inches.

REJOICINDS IN THE COUNTRY.

Entivaunott.-Saturday evening, 'a few houses in
various parts of this city vrere again illuminated.,
Parties of the Ist Regiment of Volunteers, of the
Mid Lothian Cavalry, and the 7th Dragoon Guardi,
patrolled the streets from an early-to a late hoar, but
their presence seemed quite unnecessary.
PLYMOUTH DOCK, Nov. 19.—0 n the Mail arriv-
ing here on Sunday morning with the news of the
decision of the House of Lords, great rejoicing was,
manifested by the lovers of their country and the
friends of the Queen ; white ribbons were in great
request, and displayed immediately on the occasion.
Monday morning, long before day-break, the mercy
bells were heard from several neighbouring towers.
At one o'clock twenty-one guns were fired from the
pier, at the Richmond sea-baths, and the proprietor's
house, in Fore-street, was dressed with laurels ; in the
evening his house .(with several others) was illumi-
nated.- Tuesday and Wednesday were ushered in by
the same joyous demonstrations; I have, however,
to notice, with great regret, that the general har-
mony was partially interrupted on Wednesday after-
noon, by the display of an image fixed in a cart,
and dressed in the uniform of an Admiral, with
a star on his breast, &c. &c. This appeared to
cause great alarm, and the Magistrates immediately
assembled; many respectable inhabitants were sworn,
in extra constables ; the image was taken to the Town
Hall, and the person with the cart interrogated, who.
being a porter, and hired to take the load to Ply-'
mouth, was discharged, after having a severe lecture
on the occasion. However this appeared at the.
moment to interrupt the joy that prevailed, it is im-
possible to deicribe the enthusiaitic eagerness that,
was shewn to prepare for the general illumination
and rejoicing that was to take place ou the following
day. The annexed are the particulars :—Mr. Chap-
man, painter, had a well-executed transparency of
Britannia (on the left her shield and spear, on the
ground, kneeling, in admiration for the eriusppli of
her Queen, who as seen in the centre of the transpa-
rency, encircled by a wreath of roses, surmounted
with the British crown ; by the side of Britannia
the lion is couched on the tattered remains of the
Bill of Pains and Penalties; on the right, a personi-
fication of the Milan Commission is shewn, driven
by the rays of Truth into darkness ; the names of,
Brougham, Denman, yffskine, and Grey, support
the medallion of her Majesty ; and at the head of
the whole is this motto, " Regina, in spite of them."
In front of Mr. R. O. Backwell, ironmonger's, house,
a transparency, with four verses taken from the 35th
Psalm, and beginning with " False witnesses did rise
up," kc. &c. and also a fine display of variegated
and other lamps. Mr. Mall, leather tatter, Britan-
nia (trampling on a figure representing caltimny)
receiving the Queen, with one hand extended to-
wards her, the other resting on a shield, behind which
came a scroll, with the words " Thus shall Britannia
protect Innocence and subdue calumny in the
centre was a full roused lion trampling on the Green
BagrMilan Commission, and Secret Committee ; at
the other end a figure escaping, by which was repre-
sented Rastelli, and a fallen figure at the feet of the
runaway ; Fame, in the centre of the clouds, blowing
a trumpet, from the mouth of which issued several
mottoes, as " Like the leaves shall her enemies fall,"
" The independence of the British Bar," " Liberty of
the Press," &c. R. and J. Burnet, mercers, C. R.
and a star, in variegated lamps ; and in front of the
dwelling-house, "The voice of the People," " May
the light which this represents be unextinguishable."
Mr. Rod, attorney, -t very elegant and tasty display
of candles, wreaths of laurel, flowers, &c. and in the
centre of the room, a bust of the Princess Charlotte,
beautifully illuminated and decorated. Mr. John
Hoar, tobacco-manufacturer, " Star of Brunswick,"
suspended across Pembroke-street, which had a beau-
tiful effect in passing down George-street. Mr.
Prowse, James-street, " May the virtues of her Ma-
jesty be as durable as our native Wood, and her ene-
mies fall like the leaves of Autumn." Mr. Abel,
Queen-street, De Mont and Majocchi, as large as life,
suspended across the creet. The word " Caroline"
appeared very brilliant at Mr. Rowe's, George's-
street. Indeed it is impossible to describe the whole
of the appropriate mottoes, devices, &c. which ema-
nated from the spontaneous .feelings of the inhabit-
ants of this town. There was a very brilliant dis-
' play of fire-works on the open space before George's-
square. A Royal salute, fired at nine o'clock from'
the Richmond sea-baths, had a pleasing effect,
which, with bonfires, balloons, and other demon-
strations of joy, closed the festivities of the evening.
&EMBED, Nov. 20.—This being the day ap-
pointed for the general illumination and public re-
joicing for the triumph of the Queen, as early as
six o'clock in the morning the firing of cannon and;
other arms commenced, and has been kept up with
great spirit throughout the day—and till the re-
joicings terminated, at twelve at night, the discharges
were constantly reverberating. The Printer of the
Ministerial Paper (who is also Postmaster of the town)
joined by two Clergymen and a few other individuals,
'lad busied themselves for some days in going from
Ilhouse to house, endeavouring to induce persons to
set down their names to a series of Resolutions,
pledging themselves not to illuminate; but, in spite
of this trick, the illumination is both brilliant and
general. It would be in vain to attempt giving even
a brief outline of the many elegant transparencies
and devices exhibited on this cheering occasion. The
Bank of Messrs. Shore exhibited a brilliant display
of variegated lamps—in front was the Star of Bruns-
wick, the Crown, and some elegant festoons. The
windows of the patriotic Proprietor of The Sheffeld
Independent (a Paper which has throughout advki-
cated the cause of her Majesty with the most manly
consistency), had an elegant display of variegated
lamps, with the Star of Brunswick and C. R. Mr.
Elijah Forster, engraver, Mr. Roberts, of the Bri-
tannia, in Foregate, and several others, exhibited ex-
cellent transparencies, and the night has terminated
without even the breaking of a single window,
though the Clergy of the Establishment, and several
others of the known worshippers of " the Powers
that be," kept their houses in the most complete state
of darkness.
NEWBURY, Nov. 20.—0 n the arrival of the glori-
ous news of the Bill of Pains and Penalties being
thrown out of the House of Lords on Friday evening,
the 10th inst. about eleven e'clock, by the Mail, thp
bells immediately commenced a merry peal, and con-
tinned without intermission the whole of the

Cuchi and Barbara Kress, was erected, surmounted
by another green bag, which shared the same fate.
White favours and laurel were the order of the day
and night, with both male and female. On Friday,
'the Benefit Societies of the town,. preceded by a.
band, and a dog bearing a green bag in his mouth:
With the following labels attached :—" Italian Lies;
" Subornation of Perjury;" " Filth-and Scandal, and
more Lies;' accompanied by twenty flags, with de-
vices, of which the following form a part :—ln
centre of one was Queen Caroline, surrounded by the
names Brougham, Denman, Lushington, Williams;
another, the Portrait of her most gracious Majesty,
the words " Queen Caroline for ever," "Virtue Tri-
umphant," and many others--proceeded to the Earl
of Carnarvon's with a Vole of Thanks, resolved on
at a Meeting of delegates from each Friendly Society.
ABINGDON, Nov. 21.—0 n the joyful news of her
-most gracious Majesty's triumph arriving hereon Sa-
turday se nnight, the bells of each of our churches rang
a merry peal throughout the day, and an expression of
joy pervaded the whole of our population, every heart
participating in the glorious triumph her Majesty
has achieved over this foul conspiracy. On the Mon-
day following, our Mayor, Thomas Baker, Esq. gave
public notice', that a general illumination should take
place on the ensuing Weduesday, " in honour of the
Queen," which was cheerfully and universally obeyed
I not a building, from our magnificent structure the
Market-house, to the cottage of the humblest indi-.
vidual, but displayed the usual testimonies of joy,
each trying to outvie the other in the blaze of light.,
The house of William Strange, Esq. displayed a most
brilliant star of variegated lamps, together with a
profusion of artificial flowers interspersed with laurel,
which commanded universal attention. The residence
of Thos. West Esq. was beautifully illuminated by a
splendid Crown, iii lamps, &c. Among the numerous
transparencies, was one at the New Inn,. of a whole
length portrait of her Majesty, with appropriate mot-
toes. Mr. Job Collier's, " Q. C. and Magna Charta—
Bill of Rights—Trial by Jury, and the.right of Peti-
tion, are the glory of Britons, and the bases of civil
and religious Liberty." Tornkins and Harris had a
very handsome transparency ; in the centre, a Crown,
supported by the Rose, Thistle, and Shamrock ; with
a device, " The Queen Triumphant, and the Consti-
tution preserved;" with a variety of others. The town
'was filled from the neighbouring villages, and an ex-
cellent band paraded the streets, preceded by a per-,
son carrying " The filthy Green Bag," which was
afterwards burnt in the public square, amidst the
execrations of the populace. After the .usual display of.
fire-works, bonfires, &c. the evening passed off with-
out the slightest breach of the peace, or any disturb-
ance whatever.
DEAL.—No sooner had the news of the Quem's
acquittal arrived than the town was evidently moved,
and the demonstrations of joy became general.—
Flags were hoisted, guns fired, music played, and
every other Symptom of public rejoicing was exhi-
bited. A Meeting of the inhabitants, fixed by the
Mayor, was held at the Court Hall on Thursday, at
which it was resolved to present a congratulatory
Address to her Majesty, and Thanks were also voted
to the ninety-nine Peers who opposed the Bill of
Pains and Penalties, and to Messrs. Brougham, Den-
man, Lushington, and Wood, for their zealous ser-
vices and spirited conduct. A love of justice and a
warm attachment to her Majesty seemed to pervade
the assemblage, and its political feelings were ex-
pressed in a Resolution hailing "the virtual rejec-
tion of the Bill of Pains and Penalties by the House'
of Peers, and the subsequent abandonment of it by
its authors, as oblations to sound principles and pub-
lic opinion on the part of the Lords and the King's
Ministers." Nearly 1200 signatures were affixed to
the Address on Saturday, and it is intended to for-
ward it to Mr. Honywond, the Member for the
County, to be presented to the Queen.—The town
was very generally and very handsomely illuminated
in the evening.
Rya, Soso; Nov. 18.—Saturday morning, the
11th instant, when the Mail brought us the glorious
intelligence that the odious Bill was thrown out, it
excited a lively sensation throughout the town ; the
bells began to ring immediately, and every vessel
almost in the harbour was decorated with colours
the whole day : in the evening a green bag, filled
with different combustibles, crackers, &c. was sus•
pended on the balcony at the George" Inn, and a fire
set to it amidst the hooting and hallooing of a street-
full of people, and the band playing. ; amthediately
after the explosion of the bag, a discharge of twenty-
one small brass cannon followed, which are kept for
such occasions. Afterwards the Courier newspaper
was expelled from the Union Reading-room, as being
unfit to lie upon their table, ancrThe Times brought
by the coach every evening in its room. A Meeting
was held at the George Inn, to fix 'upon a day for
illumination, when Friday, the 17th, was the day
fixed upon; and our town was Lighted up with un-
common beauty and splendour, there not being half
a score houses in the public streets but what let
loose their expressions of joy by decorating their
window's and houses with lights, transparencies, &c.
applicable to the occasion. The effigy_ of Majocchi,
holding a transparent lantern in his hands, with .the
words " Infamous Majocclii," was carried round the
town, followed by a band of music and thousands of
people ; after which he was hung by the neck, with
his feet in a lighted tar-barrel, and there burnt
amidst the huzzas and hooting of the greatest con-
course of people ever seen in Rye, To mention
every device and motto would be almost impossible.
The whole was conducted in a very becoming man-
ner through the whole of the evening, with the ex-
ception of a few squares broken at five houses, which
did not illuMinate.
ASERGAVESNYI Nov. 17.—Last Wednesday night,
presented a scene of great joy and mirth in this town,
on account of the glorious victory which her Majesty
the Queen has gained over o.
the foulest and most atr
cious Conspiracy ever attempted. The streets wers
most brilliantly illuminated, and all the inhabitants,
with the eiception of an imignifiC;rt,--faw, partici-

sated in the general feeling. But . what %fronded In
ordinary degree of amusement to the peaceable
crowds and the real friends of the Constiteron, were
't')e striking figures of Non nti Ricardo, Be Mont, and
_Barhararress, together with a green bag, loade.l
with a quantity of the Courier paper. These tree
carried about the streets from six till ten o'clock ; atut
what highly diverted.the multitude was the peseta-
, .
ing these images of Ministerial fully and iniquity 14
a certain Gentleman, who at first refused, but after
wards was, at some expense, compelled to light us
his windows, and saying to him, while with fire artrs
he was standing sentinel before his door, 4‘ Acre i~
yourfriend Make hi come to see you, Sis.; pray look
at him," &c. About ten o'clock, a lofty gallows vas
erected, on which the traitorous set were hung, and
exposed to every possible contempt.; and, lavir;
been suspended a considerable time, All sere, in &
midst of loud acclamations and music, tousizned to

the tames.
FA LKlRK.—Tuesday seriniot, this town was bril-
liantly illuminated, and a band paraded the stye=
till one o'clock the following morning, flirying

tional airs.
ay.—As soon as it was known at Ely, on Satur-
day se'nnight, that the Bill of Pains and Penalties
was withdrawn, al► was immediately joy and bustle.
The merry bells rang their cheerful and enliveniv
peals the greater part of the day. Tuesday evening
was fixed for a general illumination. At a quart=
before sir, not a person was to be gen in the streeN,
nor a light in ,the windows—all was still as the s().
lain hour of midnig'ht ; b.;t the moment the tows
clock struck s►r, every house, without a single ex-
ception, from the Bishop's Palace to the snud-walled
cottage, was illuminated as though by enchantment:
and in a little time the streets were filled With vari-

ous grouper, who, by a simultaneous movement,
hastened to the market-place, where they gazed in
astonishment at the splendour which surround:3
them. Oue act of justice was yet to be performed
before a general perambulation took place:--Several
Gentlemen advanced to the centre of the Market-
hill, and, amidst the groans and hisses of the assem-
blage, that vile and wicked tool of corruption, "The
Courier Newspaper, was burnt, and the ashes sc,c-
tered to the wind. After which, every one went as
curiosity prompted. The Bishop's Palace was ligluad
up. but we cannot say it made a very brilliant ap-
pearance, though we were glad to see it as it was,
being a mark of respect to our most gracious Queer..
The Prebends and Minor Canons all illuminated, and
some of them made an imposing appearance.
CANLBRIDGE.—The glad tidings of the Queen's
triumph over her persecutors, reached this town on
Saturday se'nnight, and spread throughout the place
with the suddenness of electricity, diffusing a gene-
ral joy. This was manifested by a partial illumina-
tion the same evening, and by au universal and
splendid one on the following Monday. Nineteen otm
of every twenty houses throughout the town bore
brilliant testimony of the good and loyal disposition
of the inhabitants. The least pleasing part of our
task now ensues; it is a detail of the outrages com-
mitted on the peaceable inhabitants of the town by
the Members of the University, and by the base sur-
render of the privileges of the town by those indivi-
duals who have sworn to protect them. As soon as
it became dusk the illuminations commenced, and
many inhabitants left their houses to witness them,
wearing white favours, and expressing their satisfac-
tion by repeated cheering and calling nut the Queen's
name ; in this there.was nothing improper; and we
feel confident (were we to except the firing of a few
squibs) that not even the slightest disturbance would
have taken place, had it not been for the riotous and
turbulent conduct of a certain privileged class of
gownsmen, who, assembling in a body of several
hundreds, took possession of the market place, with
loud cries of the King's name in their mouths, but
breaking his peace with all convenient expedition
whenever an object presented itself not strictly
conformable with their precise motions of loyalty.
For instance, no sooner did the Safety coach ap-
pear, than the horses were seized, stopped, and plun-
dered of the white tropes which they bore ; a party
of them afterwards suspended an effigy of the Queer
to a lamp-iron, in the passage of All Saints Church,
the Honourable Mr. L— performing the office of
executioner. One was detected throwing a stone
through a window, and was pointed out to an Al-
derman, who refused to take any cognizance of the
offence, because it was committed by a gownsman;
it may not be improper to observe, that it was the
same Alderman who, on a former occasion, applied
such gross and indecent epithets to her Majesty. Mr.
, of Caius College, also did us the favour of
demolishing part of our windows. Many other win-
dows were broken in the same manner. A labouring
man from Girton, received three stabs from a gowns-
man, inflicted by a sharp instrument affixed to the
end of a stick : some of the gownstnen carried large
sticks, while some of them had bullets, or pieces of
lead, fixed to the bottom of their gowns, which they
slung with violence against the people; during all
which depredations they marched, as the Editor of
the Courier says, in close columns, six abreast, per-
forming their wbeelings and evolutions with a mili-
tary precision. "What more than this, we ask, did
those people do, who were so cruelly slaughtered at
Manchester?—Cambridge Press.
