are the leading Lights of the pngl!-
istic heavens, Since the days
when John C: Heenan made men OF
every degree of strength turn back
summersaults before him. there has
no such man risen as this modern
Sampson. Hundreds of phenomenal
ly strong men have made their ap-
pearance in the rang to be beaten
bv men of inferior size and strength
because they did not couple science
with muscle. Sullivan is one OF
the few strong men who has light
ness of foot and quick hitting pow
ers. 1t is an old rule with boxers
that to much muscle is bar to
ouickness. That Sullivan is an ex :
ception to this rule and is so much
the embodiment of athletic perfec-
.tions, that the best men who have
been pitted against him are as chat
! before the wind. He is the flame
which devoureth the stubble; the
| pestilance that s:alketh IN the noon
day; the simeon OF the desert; the
calamity of the ring and the rip
roarer from Boston, ETC., etc. He
has accepted an engagement here
with the agreement not to appear

| who desire to see the present
champion of the world.
