BOXIMS.—HuDSON AND W►AD.—There was a numeroosand
tip top meeting at a dinner at Randall's yesterday, on making
good the whole of the stakes between these hern'.s of the ffitic
art. Jack Randall liked his guests, and the risen liked their
match, which was 'lade by clapping down another 60 !SOTS,
aside, making the stakes 100 sous. to be fought for on the 11th
of Nov. The men toasted each other in bumpers of blac't
strap, and parted with a drain or two of the Seeger daffy, their
partizans joining in the cause. Ward was rather the favourite
in betting; but the brave Joshua has no more thought about
it than a gallant sailor would in facing a cannon's mouth.

A lad named Henry Whitehead, who had been placed
by the Master of the National School at Faversham, as
first boy of that establishment, was walking in the, street
at Faversham on Sunday evening last, when he was met
by some other boys of the school, who made some obser.
cation of acoff or reproach, which provoked him, and it
appears he went to another part of the town, borrowed
a pen-knife, and on sowing the party ■gain who had
given him the offence, he went directly to one of them
named Manoncli, and violently stabbed *him in the body ;
the wounded boy was nut immediately aware of the in-
jury he had received. and was remonstrating with the
other for pricking him, when he dropped down, and on
being stripped and examined was found to have received
a very dangerous wound, and has I een since in great
agony, hut is still living.—(Kentish Chron.)
At a meeting of the Committee for management of the
National Schools in Faversham, on the 24th ins'ant, an
investigation took place as to the above affray; when, after
examining, the boys who were present, it appeared that
Richard Whitehead was assaulted in the streets, struck at,
and otherwise abused by several boys of voted bad charac-
ter, who had previously been dismissed the school ; that in
the moment of irritation he took out and opened his pen-
knife, and either by holding it by his side or moving his
bandit entered the belly of Thomas Mannoucb. This un-
fortunate fact made the Committee consider it would be
improper to continue Richard Whitehead in' the s• hoot.
At the same time they were thoroughly convinced °lbis
previously good character and of the mildness and prc-
priety of his conduct, and that the present offence arose
from no premeditated malice or vindictive design.
A few weeks since, as one of the freemen of a certain
ancient and loyal borough was returning borne, after
having received plentiful liba'ions at the shrine of the
jovial deity, whom he had previously invoked, he suddenly
tell into the mire. A person immediately ran to his
assistance, but was prevented by a third individual, who
exclaimed, " Stop, stop, you marn't meddle with him ;
he is a freeman, and has a right to lay there !" The
freeman himself then got op, and managed to reach his
own home without sustaining any great berm,
