The Brutal Prize Fight.

The papers are full of the particulars of the
human dog fight between HEENAN and SAVERS,
on the 18th of April. The fighting was done
near London, aad thousands of spectators are
reported to have been on the ground to witness
it. They fought two hours and eight minutes,
81 rounds being fought. The Referee then or
dered the men to desist, and the battle was
therefore draw. Sayers fell at almost every
round, and Heenan was blind at the last round
Heenan got the first knock down and Sayers
the first blood. It was a desperately contested
fight. both men showing splendid pluck. 1t
looks, however as though Heenan was the bet
ter man of the two. Heenan's friends claim
that he was, in fact, victor, and that the ropes
were cut by the adherents of Sayers in order to
G break up the fight, and save their money. The
friends of Ssyers claim that the ring was bro
ken in upon by the police, who rallied to break
up the contest. A third party claim that the
referees advised the fight to stop, because in ac-
cordance with the rules of the prize ring, it was
their duty to do so when the life of either fight
er was in danger, and claim Heenan was fast
choking Sayers to death over the ropes.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION MoBBED.-The Mary
land Republican State Convention met in Bal
timore. April 26, for the purpose of appointing
Delegates to the Republican National Conven-
ton. Shortly after effecting an organization a
mob entered the hall and dispersed the Conven-
tion. But for the exertions of the police to pre-
vent it, some Of the members of the Convention
would have been hung. The Slave Democracy
may think this very successful and speedy
way of getting rid Of Republicanism in Mary
land, but they are only planting seed there
that will take root and grow. The Convention
afterwards met secretly and transacted theil
business

Southern exchanges complain of drought =
Rain. rain. is the cry everywhere. The cotton.
the sugar, the corn needs rain. The South has
been blessed with abundant crops for number
of years past, while the Northwest has not
had a full crop for five years. Business South,
has been consequently Aourishing- merchants
pay promptly and are in good credit. The con-
trary is the case with the orth.West, and
many Eastern merchants-many who are in
debted to the North West for their wealth, do
not hesitate to cast your poverty into your face.
To. be so and suffer the consequences is bad
enough-but to be upbraided for Providential
dispensation, is little too much for "human
flesh and blood" to bear. While the North
West is slow pay, under the circumstances-if
the South were deprived Of full crop for five
years, would her merchants pay at all?

DErRo1r LIQUOR INSPECTORS REPORT

DETROIT Liquor INSPECTORS REPORT.
DIR. L. G. Miller. Inspector of Liquors
for Wayne county, Michigan, has published
a report, in which he states in substance
that he has recently examined the liquors
and wines of 3s3 establishments in De-
troit. That of 3s2 lots of whiskey be
found only two pure. The main portion of
the whisky was mixed with extract of
plums, dried apples, peaches, sugar, honey
and caramel. Not single drop of pure
French brandy was found in Detroit. The
brandies were made of alcohol, sugar and
French coloring, with slight infusion of
brandy, or the "oil of brandy" Of l64
samples of gin, 80 were genuine; the rest
were mixtures of oil of juniper, alcohol,
water and sugar. OF 80 samples Of ia
maica rum, 8 were pure. The fictitious
rum was favored with the coil Of rum,n
which is injurious to health in the smallest
quantities. Some pure Catawba wines
were found, but the Port was generally
vile mixture. .-1-,

sisys, in order to give the reader an insight IN
10 its character, and the temper Of the men

On the seventh day the proceedings were OF
very noisy character, half the delegates ire
oueatly on their feet at the same time, and vo-
Grating at the top Of their voices. Several days
had been spent in trying to adopt a Platform.
The one reported by a majority of the Commit
tee, was voted down by large majority, and
after considerable wrangling the minority re-
port was substituted by vote of l65 to 13s-
Its principal points are:
l. Affirming the Cincinnati platform.
2. That all rights Of property are judicial in
character. and the Democracy pledge themselves
to the decisions of the Supreme Court on the
subject.
3. Ample protection to the citizens, native
