ELLIOTT AND WINKLE FIGHT SEVENTY.
FOUR ROUNDS IN TWO HOURS AND
TWELVE MINUTES

The PRIZE hight between young Elliott and Wrinkle,
which was broken up by the police on Thursday of
last week, came off yesterday morning in New
Jersey, the spot originally selected. Toe psrtier
have both appeared in the prize-ring before, and
have both been defeated. Wrinkle once fought Dan
Kerigsn, and was by that worthy Knocked out Of
time by single blow, which, catching him Gu tho
point of the chsin confused bis ideas, that be wsz
not able or DESTROYS to respond when the hafninnts
was up--in short, be took NO note Of" sime.'
Elliott, on a certain disastrous morning, met Lit
tie Billy CLARK" and was by shat hard-fsted young
gentleman defeated, after sharp contest. SO the
two whipped men resolved TO Sight each other, that
from one Of them might be removed the stain Of
being Arrays conquered; but fortune was against
them even in this mild and modes. request for their
fight was merely draw, that neither of them il
any more a cOnaueror than before.
The interference Of the police last week had mere
ly the usual efiecs Of posponins rot preventing the
match.
About $50 person, were present yesterday uorniDg
at the appointed spot, near Weehswken, and there
were many delays before the could sgrss on
referee umpires, etc. A good ring was made, and
at last at 9:l5 a. m, the combs.aD;s entered the
ring. Both were in very good condition, having
been in active training for some time past. Elliott
was seconded by John Woods and William Clarke,
while Johnny Roach end Kit Buris osicisted 'or
W.nkle. Johnny Monaghan was ump.rs.or Winls.
Con Foley was umpire for Elliott, ard The referee
was man named Waters
The mon fought two hours and ten minutes, ard
light was the hitting that neither nan had bad
black eye, and in fact the affair was mere like Q
sparring match than fight. For "a rounds they
stood up, but neither their own love Of the manly
sport, nor the eers of their friends, could persuade
them to much eevere fighting. Elliott wac declared
