BOX ING.

Tuesday afternoon, the inhabitants of Ragshot, Frimley,Win-
dlesham, and the neighbouring villages, were highly entertained
by the regular exhibition of a most desperate pugilistic contest,
which took place in a field between the Golden Farmer ahtl the
village of New Blackwatts, near the great road leading to Ba-
singstoke. The combatants were Sled and Sylvester, who, though
unknown in the lists of nulling celebrity, were, nevertheless,
staunch Baghsbot moor-game, and fought with determined va-
lour. The Ant was a son of Vulcan, and the other a farmer.—
In point of age and science the advantage was on the side of the
man of iron, whose hard blows were admirably calculated to
prove the temper of his opponent's knob. The Agriculturin, on
the contrary, was a raw young man, ssithnut any pretensions to
skill, and inferior to his antagonist in everything but height and
courage. Notwithstanding this disparity in physical and scien-
tific qualities, the fight lasted two hours, during which 47 excel-
lent rounds were fought, and it was at length decided in favour
of the Cyclops, by his antagonist having the misfortune to sprain
his wrist. A handsome purse was made up by the amateurs, for
the benefit of the champions, in return for the excellent sport they
afforded to thefushionnbie
A young man, named Codrington, was killed in a field in
Newington parish, on Saturday afternoon, in a pitched battle
with a man of the name of Cullington. They had been fiLbt-
ing two hours without doing each other much mischief, but it
ended by the deceased getting an unlucky fall upon the side of
the head, which stunned him ; and although medical aid was
promptly administered, he died soon afterwards, from the rip
ture of a vessel In the bead.

WORKSOP, APRIL 12, 1821.—A third claimant of
the property of the late GEORGE DONSTON, Esq..(dle
property being claimed before by STOKEHAM Hum-
WAITE, and a French Gentleman, named CHEVALIER,
who married a liuntwAirE) came here on Wednes-
day last, with a Lawyer's Clerk, and Sheriff's Officer,
and broke oped the door of the house of the
late G. DONsToN, Esq. The Attorney for the Hunt-
WAITE interest authorised the turning out by force
of the new corners, and they were put out by a party
in the interest of STOKEHANI HUTHWAITE. The third
claimant, who is a poor man, out of the neighbour-
hood of Doncaster, then brought up a great number
of persons, who broke the windows and doers, and
again made forcible entry into the house, having pre-
viously lead over their written demand of possession,
in the name (as they say) of the right heir. Srott. I HAIL
HUTGWAITR'S party, who were in the hort_e, being
armed with iron bars, and blacksmiths' tools of various
kinds, laid so furiously on the assailants, that one man
received so violent a blow on the bead as to die in a
few minutes. Several others received contusions of
various kinds, and a dreadful scene it was. Thus a
poor, industrious, am' peaceable man has met a vio-
lent death ; a wife is beieft of a kind husband, and
sir children of a father and protector. The deceased
was a ma4ter blacksmith, named Godfrey.
