SPARRING AT rifEi

• .
The first benefit this season took plate yesterday, for.
Purcell, one of the (naves; men, that ever peeled for ac-
tion, and decidedly the beat meg between the heavy
and the light weights., ,Taleg was never better appre-
ciated lbws In this instance, the Court bring so eruirded
that many could nut get a sight,of.thp performances.—
The sparring kept parr with the Patronage; and it was
the best our informant has seen for years.
Lennox, and Latham, one of his pupils, commenced
operating nip, each other's heeds with much dexterity,
and gave sitisfection.
David Hudson, the brother of the gallant Aosb, and
Holt.—This bout was a perfect representation of an
science, and every morminevit.erpa made with a precisiou
sad dexterity that drew Ames thunders of applause. The
parrying of blows was never excelled.
Larkin anti Cummins.—The former is a great favour-
ite with the fancy, and, like his gallant conirmile Shaw,
promises much ; if young in acience, his quickness and
codrage rank him a first-rater. Ctunenins was an ath-
letic novice, determined pi a, trial, and Larkin con-
'Laced him that the fighting profession would not suit:
In the first round Cummins was.,lloored i in the second
they parted in a close, and in the third Larkin punched
his heed about so much; that he took off the gloves,
ieerningly to feel if it wee on.
Turner and Eales.--,-It would be difficult to state
which was the best set-to, this or thr second. It was
master-piece of science, .although there was
more hitting in this. Pales, with his acknowledged fine
science, fdand oat, as .every one else had done, bar the
;midst tenet, that Turner, with the left foot its advance,
*es nit to be got it line others, and he felt it, too, se-
verely about the head, but the counters and returns were
admirable.
. Belcher ;ad Harmer also nude a scientific set-to, and
pc much applause.
Martin next cracked ,ao imateur's jaw, whn set 'o
with him to wiu two wassail; aid after one round" Let's
pall thew of. Jack." said. be.
Randall and Purcell clpped the sports of-the day j and
the latter carried ofd; the nag of merit.
Reynolds.cballenged awl man tf his, weight.
Robert Born was present, aed he trains on. Shelton
Was also there, much the worse for the light.
