Cannon VS.. Lewis.

The catch -catch-can wrestling
match between Evan Lewis, and
Tom Cannon of San Francisco, drew
good house at the Turner hall last
evening. 1t was nearly an hour af-
ter the Advertised time when the men
appeared upon the stage. Cannon
then objected to wrestling under the
Police Gazette rules claiming they
were not the standard of rules gov
erning this style of wrestling, but
after some discussion he consented
to do 30, and time was called. AT
the end of five minutes Lewis threw
Cannon heavily, and the referee de-
cided it fair fall Cannon objected
claiming that only one had touched
the. carpet. The audience mainly
agreed with him, and cried mo fall. D
Lewis then good naturally agreed to
have the decision set aside and wres-
tie it over.
The next bout was short enc,
Lewis throwing his man SO squarely
on his back that there was no chance
for dispute-time four minutes.
The final bout was fine exhibition
of catch-as-catch-can wrestling, both
Contestants exhibiting science and
skill, but the massive strel 9Th of
Lewis was too much for his adversary
and at the end Of six minutes he
threw up his hands, saying, | am
satisfied, and the retire. gave the
match to Lewis. Lewis, who is be,
licved by his friends to be invinciblc,

The New York Evening Post SAYS:
The death of Robert Toombs is a
severe blow to the sectional wing OF
the republican party His bitter
rawlings about the inferiority of The
negro to the white men, based
upon his well-know declaration that
II God had not intended the negro
te be inferior, he would not have
created him black, have been of
great service for many years. He
was alwas ready to give these views
a fresh airing, and whenever a cam
paign showed signs of dizziness q
reporter was sent to interview him.
with the inevitable result of secur-
ing the same old talk about the
negro and and the sacred cause of
secession. The talk was at once
cited as evidence that the whole
South was simply waiting its oppor-
tunity to put the negro back into
slavery, and try the war over again.
Whenever Toombs was not sufficient
to arouse the North. the coopera-
ton of Jeff Davis was sought, ana
seldom failed to be obtained. In
the course of nature, Davis must fol-
low Toombs within n few years, aud
it will then be necessary for the Sec
tional argitators to go out of bust
ness, or else continue it entirely
without capital.
