Rafting ssyIill'' in the Midland District Of
EngIand-ts. Brandrick and j.. Golinxhcr,
for Fifty Pounds.

From Bells Life in London, Sept 121
This match has been before the public for some
considerable time, and as Brandrick has been vic
tor0us In thirteen consecutive battles, his friends, AS
a matter OF course were very sangune, while his
opponent is comparatively novice as regards fights
for money. George Brandrick, who trained under
George Golding Of Walsall Is twentyseven years OF
age. stands five feet six inches and has hitherto had
a victory over "Suiphur,' of Dudley in the Leeds
district. Gallagher is twenty-five years Of age but
stands some inch and half over him. both weighing
over nine stone.
They met near Norton Common, In the Hednesford
district soon after seven O'Clock A. NJ, and ring
was quickly formed, the men standing up for bus-
at i've minutes past eight O'Clock, Six to four
and two to one being laid on Brandrick, who was
esquired by the Walsall pair father and SOM.
ROUND l.-Brandrck landed his opponents
nose, but was sharply countered. The ball being
fairly opened they got together. and science being
put aside they commenced sloggng IN earnest,
Gallagher having slight pull in the hitting from his
extra length Of reach On coming up i was evident
that both had been Through the mill;'' Brandrck's
left eye pulled, his opponents nose and month
swollen swollen, Good exchanges on the phz, Bran,
mouth, opening vein, and first blood was accorded
him; they got to close quarters and nbbed away,
Brandrck on the face then Gallagher on the body,
Gallagher got home on the left eve and month,
Brandrick responding on the beak, when they got
together and pegged away merrily, neither ninchnK
from his work; Brandrck, the stronger. bored his
man down. Brandrck rushed in, but was met with
resolution, and both got punished on the dial They
rallied SO fast the pair came to standstill when
they fell harmlessly. They fought with extraor-
binary gameness, anything like science being
spicuous by its absence.
In the twentieth round Gallagher repeated his per-
formances On the left eye with telling severity, and
raised lump on the left temple and pinked the
other organ likewise and Brandrick locked any
thing but himself He paid his man in his own coin,
however, and after most determined rally bored
him down at the ropes
From this point though both fought with equa,
determination. Brandrck's better stamina began
TO show and after contendng forty-three rounds in
one hour and twenty-One minutes Gallagher sue

For auld Ian z syne."

PERsoNAL1TIEs.-CoI Col. Naso,a.-We had the pleasure
of hearing from our colleague, Col Mason, who left
here about month ago, on an excursion Of health
northward He had reached Memphis, and UP to the
26h ult, was still there quietly enjoying the hospital
ity and kindness of his relatives-and intended pro-
ceeding further north in few days We glad to
announce a very considerable Improvement in his
health The Col intends seeking the beautiful blue
lakes of Minnesota but should not be at all sur
prised to hear that the prevailing infection to be in
New York on the fourth, had not taken him in that
direction. Wherever he goes, we hope he will find
health in the breese-and return to Us this fall with
bis constitution thoroughly invigorated.
Col. VIM. II. Levy.-Our old friend, Col L., paid
our city a visit last week. He had just escaped the
dust and cobwebs of his Office and was enjoying little
leisure. We we're glad to meet with him, and to see
him in fine health. We missed the Colonel from the
canvass in April last but, he assures he will take
part this fall. With him and Col Sam Hyams in the
field actively, November will bring different tale
from Apr's ugly report
Col. Catts.-The many friends Of Col. G., were glad
to extend him cordial welcome, his return to
city, after an absence of several months
We understand the Colonel has resigned his commits
sion in the United States Army, and will resume, in
this city, the practice Of his old profession the law
We not at all surprised at his return to his first
love- If the Colonel is successful in pleasing his
clients as he in the administration of the military
law, he may well hope TO add to the number of his
friends, he increases the sphere of his usefulness

The LEAvENyoRTH LAWRENCE AND GALVESTON RAIL
RoAD.-We learn from the Galveston News that the
Leayenworth Lawrence and Galveston Railroad is fin
ished and in operation thirty miles south of Law
renee to Ottawa AT least fifty miles is expected
to be completed this year For its completion to the
southern line of Kansas it receives 64O0 acres of
eminent lands per mile. The company has also ll5-
900 acres of Kansas State lands. 1t is to receive one
million of dollars from of the counties through
which it passes. The News believes the Kansas road
will meet the Texas Central in three years from this
time. The News it has recently gone ahead of its
present terminus about hundred miles to secure g.
o90, 900 of rich lands in the fine valley of the
Neosho. AS the construction of the Union Pacific
Railroad proceeds this anxiety increases the great
central feels that without the connection with the
gulf it will be at the mercy of the Pacific road In
fact the relation of the Yves to the gulf is chief ele
ment in the combination which is to make the West
the of empire and that chief element is now rep
resented by the Leayenworth Lawrence and Galveston
railroad. New Orleans Crescent.
The activity exhibited by the people in other por
tons of Texas suggests the enquiry, why has no ap
peal Eeen made to the people along the Pacific Road
west of Marshall?
We presume the fact may be accounted for in the
unsettled condition of the affairs of the Road to the
SUITS the judgments, and the sale PERHAPS too the
company should be allowed reasonable time tn
prepare for the future extension 1t is all imnortant
for the interests Of the Road that the work sbouId he

Road as soon the latter reaches or crosses the line
of the Southern Pacific. We must make the counec

ST.. LOUIS LIFE INsURANcE.-We beg to refer our
readers to the advertisement of the st. Louis Life In
surance Company. The assets of this company, it is
stated, were on the LIST of January, 1868, s26O9,-
TAI 20, and, we presume, these figures represent
paid up capital If this is the case, this is of the
richest insurance companies in the United States For
further particulars with regard to its solvency and
management, reference is made to its agent, Mr..
THOMAS w. Scott. The subject Of life insurance is
beginning TO attracts proper share of the proper at
tention 1t deserves in this section In other and in
most sections of the Union, the advantages of insur
ance have been SO well recognised that it is the rule
to insure, and the exception not to insure-iust re-
versing the order here The principal object of every
man with family is, to secure beyond an accident
suhclent provision for his family, after he is taken
away. ibis he effects the moment policy is taken
out and this policy only be taken out in health
1t is dangerous to delay SO necessary and SO wise
course 10 secure competency for family, all you
have to do is, to pay small premium that you will
hardly miss from your income, annually. No invest
ment OF little goes far to insure that peace Of
mind, which results from freedom of all anxiety as
to the future condition Of widowed wife and orphan
children. 10 purchase this freedom and to secure
competency for those we love, what an inducement
to deny ones self Of trivial expenditures in or
DER 70 De able to pay up an annual premium! Nearly
all OF the prudent family of this city have learned
the value of life Insurance. and have taken ont nol;
cles 1t IS especially to call the attention of farmers
that we have ventured beyond the limits of an ordi
nary newspaper article to the subject the adyan. |
