on his opponents proboScis; stinoer by
Clark, nearly closing his left "peeper;" lit
tie sparring; Thompson much excited Clark
cautious and confident; Thompson down.
Second round-Thompson nearly frantic
with excitement, Clark smiling and cool ;
Thompson clinched, and was thrown heavily
upon scat, with a few we'll directed settlers
upon his countenance; Clark having it nearly
his own way.
Third round-Thompso foaming like q
mug of "laser beer" Clark a tile " start
ed" clinched, Thompson thrown, Clark fall
ing upon him; Thompson endeavored to
gouge and kick he here inserted his finger
into Clark's mouth; probably to hold him
easier) and commenced bawling for help.

Our friends in that Territory have now

put proper estimate on the principles and
political character of their opponents and

permit us to tell them that, the result of
their contest is looked for with intense anx-

if they do not enter into the canvass with
the vigor and zeal which are demanded by
their cause, if they do not see tc it that all
