It was clear that Tisdale hail not now a chance, although still
ready to renew the battle ; his (ace was dreadfully disfigured, and
several &ping wounds 'hewed the severity of his punishment. At

acquiesced, and Diek was proclaimed the conqueror. He was ins.

REMARKS.
Curtis by this fight has increased his fame, and proved
that he is the most finished boxer of his weight ia, the
present age. It is impossible, in fact, to imagine greater
perfection in the pugilistic art. His cool judgment—
his readiness at defence, and quickness of attack wheret
an opening offers, admit of no parallel; and when we
add to this, his admirable generalship in mehteuvring
his man into situations of difficulty, of which he takes
advantage, and the tremendous punishment. which he
then inflicts, be must be pronounced one of " the match-
less.'. Tisdale throughout had not a chance of winning,
bet' till his unshrinking courage and self-possession to
the last entitle him to every praise, and, in fact, place
him in the second place among men of his weight. It
was truly said that he is the best man Dick bad ever to
contend with ; and from the time it took to finish him
(o: e hour and two miuntes),•it is pretty clear that Dick
had quite enough to do to satisfy his milling appetite.
Dick's hands are greatly injured, but his putlisbinent,
with• the exception of.the taps on his proboscis, is but
trifling, when compared with that of his antagonist.
ANOTHeit Accou ST. —Tisdale has thus been defeated
for the first time, and the result has bees one more tro-
phy added to the catalogue of the achievements of the
Pet of the Fancy. Of Curtis it would almost be none-
testify to say anything; his execution so easily effected
sad so severe. his thorough yeneralship, and varied
tactics, or rather, in fact, his fighting as a whole, no
man now in the ring can equal. It is scarcely possible
to suppose a more elegant and accomplished pugilist
(as a pugilist) titan Dick Curtis ; and it is saying no
-.trifle to the praise of 71'i$dale, that Dick was niece than
an hour in beating him. The battle was wally all one

Tisdale is meth slower, and although so-good a fighter
and so staunch a man, that he might meet most men of
his weight, he was fairly out fought. The agitation that
was upon him on his entrance never entirely lett him.—
D ck's nose was stetted, and he bled a little at the ear at
oue time, but lie was otherwise little the worse of the
wears and was horse off in triumph, riding on the
'boulders oft the Commodore Hudson (no small con-
trast in bulk) amidst the shooting of his friends. Tis-
