BOXING.

The ,second battle between frogging and Tenter
took place at Shepperton Point yesterday, for 150
guineas aside (on the same ground where Randall
beat Belasco) in a 32 feet ring, after many false notices
had been given, which scattered people about in all
directions. Some of the Commissary department re-
ceived a note, purporting to have come frets a Ma-
gistrate (Mr. Parente), forbidding the battle to take
place there, and the cavalcade was met at eleven
o'clock by a messenger, anoculicing the unwelcome
news, and that the ring would be formed a: Monkey
Hurst, whither the cavalcade repaired on each side
the water helter-skelter. Here, and ire Hampton,
hundreds remained in suspense, until another mes-
senger reached Hampton, between twelve and one
(o'clock, stating the Magistrate's interference to have
been an hoax—and back again wept the majority of
the group, whilst others, tired as well as their horses,
remained stationary, as it was even betting that
Scroggins did not intend to fight. Sense of those
who did return to the ring had another trick played
off upon them, three quarters of a mile on this side
the seat of action, by a board tbus—" This is Me road
to thehlti." It was, however, two miles round, and
this was managed for the Walton-bridge" toll, the
owners being desirous of a pull as weil as others.—
Turner was in a coach in the ring before one o'clock,
but Scroggins did rot make his appearance fur mole
than an hour atter, when he was fetched. It was '2
19 1, current betting, that be would not appear; and
when he did, two men were stripped, and were just
in the act of setting-to when they were put on one
side, and 'the heroes tor the Jay's diversion en.Lred
and stripped. Betting to 1 on Turner, but no
takers. Seconds, Owen and Paiute: for Turner, and
Jones and Spring for Scroggins. The Commanding
Officer of all the miller:, who can lead the ring with
as great facility as a favourite hustings orator can
command attention to hit speech, not being present,
it was a long time before the ring could be brought
to any regularity. The men at length set-tn.

his head and got safe in. After exchanging counter bits, they
broke from each mbar and convened together. in renewing the
rally Smeggins received hks en the bead and body, which were
repeated. Turner was thrown.
S. Snagging bad much the worst of this round, and was thick

havoc about his face, and when tired of it, he threw Mnuelf

It would be tedious to the Reader so panic: drive every round
of so much sameness, and therefore we proceed to those which
Worded an opponunity of remark, for Turner had her. reduced
success to a certainty without a chance hit, and the strength of
hitting was gone by.
In the 18th round Turner bad as much of his own way as be
couki wish, and he began to make play. At the end of the round
the poundage was offered in vain. The 19th was a reserve tor
wind with both ; and the Sloth was of a sameness with the in.h,
with this difference, that Turner worked at Seri ggins's head un-
der Its arm until he was tired. In the gist, tenser made ex-
pert parries, amid finished the round with a decisive body blow.

very fatigued with giving.
Tim 25th round produced the only knock down blow, ii is
may be termed one, in the fight. Turner received Scroggiu,'s
left hand upon the neck, and he went down upon me Walla and
one knee, which is considered down, so as to make it foul to

This battle has set two questions at rest : the first
of which is, that Scroggius fought to win his former
battle with Turner which has often been disputed ;
and, secondly, that he has proved himself a eery game
mans which some had disputed. That lie never was a
scientific boxer has been long since known, but h;s
strength and courage vanquished all before him, until
chance threw Turner in his way. The strongest
proof that he could nut get at him as he has done at
others, has been shewn upon two occasictis; and this
demonstrates clearly what science, whet; managed
with temper and coolness, can do against so engtii and
resoitition, providing the heart be in :he right pl ice.
Turner parried the dreadful hitting right hand I f his
opponent, and returned upon hint at leisure, saving
himself.—he scarcely had his hands from his race a
minute during the whole fight ; and what with think
mg brand; (which Scroggins resorted to in the mid-
dle of the. tight), and continually receiving about the
bead, he was drank from the 20th round. We
scarcely ever recollect seeing a man worse punished.
He was taken off the ground to an inn at Halliford,
and put to bed. Turner went to bed at the Anchor, at
Shepperton, tired enough of the gymnastics of tt.t. day.
Randall challenged to fight Turner on the ground,
when it was supposed Scioggins would not :hew. A
match will no doubt be made.

One of the ships with Officers on board to assist
the Spanish Patriots in South America, sailed on
Monday from Portsmouth.

The Fair at Teignmouth, on Tuesday seinnight-
WAS very numerously attended ; the concourse of per,
sons being more numerous than was ever before
known, which evinces the increasing population of
that delightful watering-place. A number of va-
grants, who make a practice of resorting to these
revels for the purpose of begging by day and stealing
by night, were committed by the worthy and active
Magistrate of that division, and the day, instead r f
being muddled away in drinking, was passed as well
As agreater part of the night, in dancing, four ball-
rooms being appropriated for that purpose.
At Barton Fair, on Mond ry last, the strew of cattle
WAS smaller than we have been used to see at this matt,
and more particularly of fat ones, there being very
few or scarcely any brought; useful stores were sold
at better prices Oats .-of late; the sheep fair was
pretty well supplied, and prices higher. Pigs that
were fresh in order for pork and bacon sold well.
There were a great number of horses, but of very in-
ferior sorts, and the sale extremely dull. The quan-
tity of cheese was unusually small, and prices much
higher. Two meal from Us. to 481. and best mak-
iag trim 48s. to 601. per cwt. Onions sold at 3.. per
peck. Several of the fraternity of pick-pockets attend-
ed durvig the fair, and, we are sorry to Sid, must
have made a tolerable harvest. One person had his
pocket-book stolen containing about £l9O, and seve-
ral other depredations of interior value were commit-
ted; the thieves escaping without detection.
At Shrewsbury Fair, on Wednesday and Thurs-
day, the assemblage of lean cattle was great, and
the sale dull; of fat beasts there were but few, ave.
raging 51d. per lb. and these had a quick sale. The
supply of sheep was excellent, and the sale brisk at
6d. per lb. pigs also found ready purchasers. There
was a good average quantity of cheese, which sold
well—prime old qualities scarce ; best new, 50s. to
60s. per cwt.; common, 40s. to 455. Of butter the
supply was good— leis. 6d. per gawn of 121 h.;
bacon, Bd. per lb.
Ocr. 7.—Business at oar Cliffe Fair, on
Thursday, was not so brisk as at the late new Fair,
even at reduced prices, and especially at the latter
part of the day, when ewes experienced a drop of
full 2s. per head. The number penned did not ex-
ceed ten thousand, and the attendance was rather
limited. Fat stock at our market on Tuesday, and
at that of Hailsbam, on Wednesday, was dull of
sale, but the prices, nevertheless, looked upwards.
The sale of the Mock of Mr. Mounts, of Rens-
comb, near this town, en Friday last, attracted a
' very large attendance, and, among the company
present, we observed some of the most celebrated
flock-Masters. The superiority of the sheep afford-
ing a striking proof of the very great advantages
which are to be derived from a strict attention to
the improved breed ; and to demonstrate the fact, we
need only state the.prtces at which they were eagerly
bought up. They are as follow :—Two-tooth ewes
averaged at 651. one lot reached 84s•—Four-tooth..
725. 6d. the highest lot 83s.—Six-tooth, 645. 6d. one
lot 76. Full-mouthed, from 40s. to 60s. Ewe lambs,
from 30s. to 544. —A six-tooth ram fetched re 32. Ios.
