Belau°, and deservedly so, was a great favourite among
the Weenies, as a well known good man and a first rate Pu-
gilist. He was backed to the end of the chapter at 0

Such a tern out of the Shemin has not taken place foral years ; and the Amateurs also from Birrninghani did not
value the expense, or the distance of upwards of 100 miles,
to have another peep at their hero who had proved so sac-
cessfel on his native ground, and woe them so much blunt.
—Yesterday, at one o'clock, Arthur, attended by. Ma se-
conds, Randall and Josh. Hudson, threw his hat into the '

by his brother Aby. and Richmond, 'end gave his castor

which Arthur skilfully Mopped. Mattbewiton, at length, made
play, rushed upon the Jew, drove him into a corner, ate, in
closing, Arthur fibbed Belaseo down upon his knees.—A
grand shout from the Brummagem.

between the seconds as to the first claret, but it was a very
doubtful case : • slight tinge appearing on both their months.
7-After a fine display of science and courage, Belasoo was
again hit down.
3. This round commenced with severe counterhitting and
reciprocal punishtnent, till Beiaseo went down. Loud die-
vying from the Bruins.
4. Short and sweet, to he backers of on ; the

5. A fine round, till both down.
0 to 15. The whole of their rounds were cif ilte most man-
ful description, but particularly the last One ; it continued
for eight or nine minutes. It was a complete portraiture of
prise-fighting; greater skill could not be exhibited: stop-

Belasco went down quite exhausted—ittothe does not come

victory was declared in,finour of Arthur.
