LATE PRIZE FIGHT---UrrTANIsM.
The Albany Reqisfer of TUESDAY.

"We are gratfed to learn that Governor s..v-
mour with promptness becoming his character
and position, has taken energetic measures 10 bring
all the parties and accessories in the late brutal
prize fight al Boston Corners TO justice, and TO
cause such punishment 10 be administered TO them
as the violated laws and outraged decencies OF life
require. As II IS a matter of some doubt as TO
which State has jurisdiction over the place where
the outrage was committed Governor Seymour,
we understand, has corresponded with and secur-
ed the cooperation of the authorities of Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut in enforcing the law
against the offenders
There is no better evidence of the disgust
with which ruffianism and brutality are re-
garded, than the universal condemnation by
the press of the shameless bruisers and bull
lies who participated in the late disgraceful
prize-Gght. In large cities there are many men
without regular employment, who live by hang
ing around places Of infamous resort--who par
ticipate in all the games and sports that take
place. Such are the people who encourage
such scenes of brutal violence as that which
recently took place. They value mere animal
power above all other qualities. The man who,
with one blow of his fatal arm, can crush the
face and break the bones of an antagonist, is in
their eyes far greater man than the most emf
nent statesman, or councillor, or warrior.
Such an animal of thews and sinews is the
fit hero Of such mob. He is regarded with
feeling akin to reverence, and receives homage
almost idolatrous. The unredeemed brutality
the unblushing effrontery, and the unquailing
hardihood and audacity Of these men were sig
nally displayed in the protection they are said
to have given to Yankee Sullivan after his
recent fight. Determined that the laws which
he had violated should not be enforced against
him, they are said to have mustered an armed
force, by which their idol should be protected
from the officers Of the law. One of our ex-
changes says:
Yankee Sullivan marched down Chatham
