The presence Of Hon, john Mnrrissey at

with President johnson, promises to assume
great importance. There was prize fight at
Alexandria, on Tuesday, between Mike Carr,
Esq, Of Washington, and W. II. White, Esq,
OF Baltimore Fifty-four rounds were fought
In thirt y-six minutes, winch was pretty lively
work, nnd Mr. Carr Is reported to have
won the fight fairly; but the referee
decided in favor Of Mr.. White, on the gronpd
that Mr.. Carr had dealt a foulfshlow. The
hackers Of Mr. Carr have refused to pay their
bets, until the matter is decided by high
pugilistic authority ]; and there is no one,
probably, better qualified TO give IN opinioA
than the distinguished Democratic statesman
from the Fifth District of New York. In a
siu,ilar encounter with Yankee Sullisan, In
1853, the Hon. Mr.. Morrisscs was fairly
whipped; but the referee awarded him
i.e victory nevertheless. He is there
