The behavior of the petty American
force at Alexandria during the crisis in
that unfortunate city has not been such as
to bring discredit upon Us. The admiral

The result of the glove-fght between
the Hon. Tug" Wilson, of England, and
Mr.. John L. Sullivan, of Boston, which took
place Monday night at Madison Square
Garden, will probably be airing battle with
