from his man; Jack followed, and letting ID hs
left on the mouth. was wen eonnteied by Tom Oh
lodging Tom, got again heavily on the sneezer,
and Tom fell. vel
d. TOMS countenance, though not swelled, still
was much flushed, while the Boy was almost
scatheless He was somewhat wild, and tried both
hands, but missed. Counter-hits ensned, in which
Tom received the full weight Of Heenans ponder
GUS fist on his right arm, which was driven back
against his face. Tom reached Heenans left
cheek leaving bis mark. Heenan retalated on
the right brow, and Tom fell
7. Toms right pepper displayed marks OF pepper,
and il was perceptibe that he had sustained severe
injury to his right arm, which was beginning to
SWELL and which he now kept close to his body, as
if to support it. Still he went to Heenan IN ms
corner, and that hero delivered his left, but not
effectively, on the chest. Tom danced away,
the right RI It on his back. liz was quickly out
of harm's way, and coming again, lodged ms
man until he let fly, when Tom countered MN
heavily the right cheek, drawing the claret ana
raising considerable bump. The blow staggered
Heenan, who stood all of q heap for a moment.
Soon did he collect himself and as Tom came again
lodged little one on the nose, but was once more
countered very heavily on the right cheek, the cut
being increased and the bump improved. Slight
exchanges followed, in which Tom received on the
right eye and Heenan on the right cheek, where
upon Heenan went to his corner for wipe. he
seemed In no hurry to come away, and Tom stood
in the middle Of the ring until the Boy went slowly
to him and tried his lett, but it was no go. He
tried again, but only just reached Toms brow.
Tom now tented and got home on the right pepper,
Heenan missing an upper-cut. Tom danced away,
came again on another tack, and bang went his
left on the sore spot, heavy spank, and he was
instantly out of danger, laughing. Heenan rushed
after him. but was well stopped thrice in succession
Again and again Tom went to him, and banked his
efforts to effect Judgment and then Heenan mapped
another slashing crack on the right cheek, which
had the effect of at closing his dexter google.
He retreated for wipe, and was followed by Tom,
and some mutual cautions lodging and feinting
took place. At last .Heenan got on the top of
Toms smeller, but not heavily, and Tom then
avoided another attempt. Once more did Heenan
retire to Jack Macdonald for consolation and ad.
vice; Tom walking round and cycling him in an in
quisitive manner, as il admiring his handiwork.
Tom, after satisfying his curiosity, went close and
slight exchanges followed, without mischief. Hee.
nan tried his left and was stopped. Both very
cautious and neither disposed to go within gunshot.
Heenan now led off and got slightly on the mouth
with his left, Tom retaliatng on the closed pepper
Mutual taps and stops and then Tom got his left
heavily on the old spot another cracker, where
upon Jack once more retired into the privacy of
his corner amidst cries of to on Sayers. Tom,
after few turns and touch of the sponge, went
to him, but Heenan shook his mob and seemed dis
inclined for work. Tom finding he could not draw
him, retreated, whereupon the Boy came out, and
let 50 his left vicousy which was beautifully stop
ped. He then tented and got well on the bridge
of Toms snorer as he was retreating and again
knocked him off his pins. Tom rolled over, laugh
lasted thirteen minutes, and fine specimen of
stratagem and SKILL especially on the part of Tom.
His right arm now was much swollen, and SO pain
| full, that he could make little or no use of il.
s. Tom slowest to the call Of time, but directly
he at the scratch the Boy retired to his corner
whittier Tom had to follow him. Heenan at once
let go his left, but Tom laughed and jumped back.
slight exchange followed, and Tom mapped a
| straight one on the sniffer. Heenan now missed a
couple of well-meant shots, and Tom jumped away
from third, and as he turned his back upon Hee-
nan got Highlander on the back of the neck.
Heenan followed him up, but Tom grinned and
jumped nimbly away. His activity on his pins was
as remarkable as ever. Heenan pursued him, and
atlast lodged his left slightly on the nozzle, and
once more turned on the tap. Tom, however,
encountered him on the damaged cheek, which
caused the Boy to retire for the kind offices of Jack
Macdonald. On Toms going to him he let go his
left on the kisser, drawing the carmine, and this
led to pretty exchanges at long shots on the
cheek. Heenan at this time appeared weak, and
the hopes Of the Sayers party were greatly in the
ascendant. Heenan preferred his corner to the
scratch, and Tom had some difficulty in persuad-
ing him to leave. This he at last accomplished,
and some beautiful stops were made on both sides.
Another break-away ensued, after which they coun-
tered effectively but Tom was heaviest on the right
cheek, which was now swelled as big as two.
Heenan's blow alighted on Toms Grafton trap, and
drew more of the ruby. On his trying to repeat
this Judgment Tom stopped him eleverly. Capital
exchanges followed. in which Tom was again at
home on the cheek very heavily. Heenan rushed at
being banked, Keenan, retired again to his corner.
After Tom had scrutinized him carefully he rubbed
his hands and went to him, whereupon Heenan let
fly his left, but Tom got we'll away laughing; Hee-
nan shook his head, and also laughed good
humoredly. Tom now crept in, and pop went
his left on the plague spot and off went the
Champion laughing. More lodging and stopping
on both sdes until Tom was once more on the
cheek sl0gger. Heenan retaliated sharply on the
bridge of the snout, and was stopped in q second
attempt, and Tom nailed him on the right cheek
very heavily and got away. Heenan tried to take
| the lead, but Tom jumped back. The Boy perse-
yering, got well on the forehead but was unsuccess
full in second essay. The first was sufficient to
leave bump on the gallant Tom. More sparring
until severe counter exchange took place. in which
Tom got hot 'un on the whistler which shook his
worries, and turned on fresh tap 1t was stag
gerer, but Tom recovered and went to his man.
when more severe counters were interchanged
Heenan getting another rum one on the cheek, and
dropping his left with effect on Toms snufier.
Both now INDUCED in a wipe and washed their
mouths out. They came again now, like giants
refreshed, and each in turn tried lead, but each
was well stopped. Toms right ARM from the con-
| tinual stopping such a heavy cannonade as Hee
nan's was now much dscolored and swollen, and
utterly useless for the purposes of hitting, and
| he was thus deprived of his principal weapon.
| After good deal of this another heavy exchange
| followed in which Tom was at home on the old
| spot, and Heenan on the jaw heavily knocking
| Tom once more off his pins. This round lasted
| twenty minutes, and was splendid specimen of
| milling on both sides. Toms nose and mouth were
| bleeding but both his eyes were well open. His
arm was his chief draw baek. Heenan's right eye
had been long closed, his cheek was fearfully
4 swollen, and his mouth was also somewhat out of
| the perpendicular.
| 8. Heenan came up as if he intended to force the
| fighting He led off vicousy but Tom got well
away. The Boy followed him closely, and at last
| got on TOMS COB, drawing more of the juice. He
followed suit the snuffer tray with like result
| and eounter.hits ensued, in which each did mis-
| chief Heenan continued to bore in, and at last
Tom, after getting little one on the back, dropped
| laughing.
| 10. Tom was very slow to the call of time, and
appeared to want nursing 1t was evidently heavy
work struggling against such superior metal. He
stood in the middle of the ring until Heenan went
to him, when slight connter-hits were exchanged
after which they closed. Heenan lifted Tom from
the ground, and threw him heavily with the great
est ease.
II. Tom again very much behindhand in coming
to time, and the friends Of Heenan did not appear
to be in much hurry. When they did come uE
i Tom had to go into Heenans corner. After
dodge or two, Tom got his right on the good eye
rather heavily, hut it was not such Highlander
as Of yore, and evidently gave him a pain Hee
pan returned on the chest and Tom fell.
IL. thine, time y neither too ready. On Say
ers at last facing his man Heenan caught him, bu
not very heavily, on the jaw, and dropped on thu
saving suit.
49, Heenan, first to leave his seconds knee, nov
went to Tom and after dodge or two popped TIN
left very straight on poor Toms conk, once mor
knocking him clean off his legs. He turned ronnl
