HyrR AND SuLn,N,-- lbe following account
Of these two prze lighter, D., taken rom the .Ncw
York HTGid, ofFeb. Z:
Yankee Sullivan is an lrshman, known
in this city as the keeper Of a small porter.
house in Chatham street. lie has been
long famous as a pugilst and was the Sec
ond to Lilly, in the famous prize fight be-
tween lilly and McCoy, which terminated
in the death Of the latter. In England he
fought with The celebrated Champion Of
the Ring, as it is called, Hammer Lane,
and obtained the victory since which
time his name has been "up" as the cham-
pion prize.fghter Of all Christendom.-
Hyer is a stouer and stronger man than
his antagonist, but is said not to possess
his science and skill. He is m American
IA native Of New york. Hver weighs
over 2l0 lbs, stands feet high in his
stockings, and is a fine, strong, well-pro,
portloned man. This gives him decided
advantage over Sullivan, who is man of
ordinary size, and not 50 remarkable for
strength and stamina
1t seems that Tom Hyer had got it into
his head that Sullivan was not quite so
great man as his friends behaved him to
be, and felt confident that he, himself, des-
eryed the title of champion, more than Sui
livan. A little jealousy between the two
was thus created, and in this state Of feel,
ing they accidentally met one day at a
porter house in Broadway. Taunts and
jcers between the two naturally arose, till
Hyer, cXasperated, and burning to try his
powers, threw of his coat, aud dared Sui
Ivan, tacn and there, to the battle. SulIi-
van instantly "pecIed," and they had a
regular "set to- llycr caught Sullivan
by the head, held him BY the neck irml,
under his arm, and there kept him, thrash
ing him at his leisure, till Sullivan was
obliged to cry, "hold, enough" From this
time, 1t was open war and hostility be.
tween the two, and SuIliyanand his friends
burned with desire for revenge, and to VIM
dlcate the honor Of their fallen cnampion
In this lrtated state of feeling, they met
again by accident in one Of the flash houses
with which our city abounds, and another
"set to- instantly loIIowed-an immense
row was kicked up, and Tom IIyer again
gave Sullivan a licking, precisely in the
same way as before, getting his head under
his arm, and then barering the poor cham
pion at his leisure. After this, several
belligercnt cards were published by the
parties, bitter warfare of words was car.
ried on in the public papers, until the pres,
cnt fight, for stake Of ten thousand dol
lars, was arranged between them by their
several friends
