After some of the usual sparring for an opening, &c, they stood looking at each other, Holden baring hla handkerchief ad- justed, and advlco given him, On getting within shot, Peter's left visited George's corpus sharply. Holden rushed in, and avoided a straight left-hander by ducking. Morris stopped him as he went In.

This exchange led to a close and half-armed hitting at the body and head, until they broke away.

Holden followed him headlong, and alter setting bne or, two as he went to, the rounds were all oonoladed by their fight-' tog to the ropes, where th,ey were either down together, or, Mor- ris was down to avoid being thrown. There were several ap- peals made by the seoonds that Morris fell foul, but to all tho, oases up to the' present, .the mandate waa'for them to fight on. Time. S3 mto, .-.'••: , ' ■- ; . >v .- BO to tOi Holden, who was strong on bis legs, but nearly blind, continued his rnshlng system, to endeavour to snatoh the battle out of the flre, And his determined endeavors to prove the winner forced PetenBrrts to fight so fast to keep him at bay, that he was getting vwy slow, tired, and weak; ln not, so nearly was the balance even that the Holdenltes asserted their belief to the victory of the Walsall lad. Bound, after round did Hoi', deh'persevere, and Morris, finding he could. not -stall him off with his left, waa obliged to use bis right, and fpr.some two or .three rounds they stood-face to face, and .fought with the right' hand Until they got to the ropes, and went down together-, ot- Morria slipped down to avoid being hugged and thrown, llor ris, ln one of the rounds, went down suspiciously, whence was cautioned by the referee, although* Ills friends averretT that ■ he had trlbpe'd. ' '• : >< 61. Morris was not much punished aboutrlhe face or head,' but was rather bruised about the ribsahpulders; .he was very weak, and no wonder, conalderiagthe great pace at whloh they had been fighting, and tho intense beat of the.day. Holden' was nearly blind of both eyeavand was also getting very groggy. Peter landed the left on taVfaco, which brought on tremendous exchanges on both sides, until Uiey closed, when they, both fell together at the rapes, evidently very weak. . .. 62. They came up tery gamely, but quite exhausted from their exertionsyand their, hitting had; as a matter of oourse, become' of avery light description. Peter got his left on three times,' bat ^ould not succeed ln getting on Holden's half-open eve. - George rattled to, and they exchanged right and left with hearty good will, until Morris was fought down; falling apparently very weak., Time, SO mto. '63. This was a very short round, neither standing on any cere-: mony, but went to work to make a finish, and they stood foot toi foot until both were down together. . . . . 64. In this round Morris obtained a decided advantage, as he led off with his left, and knocked Holden back; but who came; again like a lion, and tried to force the pace, but Morris pushed 1 bin baok to tho ropes, where he had much the best of the round] by fibbing Holden until both were down together. . • .. AS. The gameness displayed by both was much admired, and: so fast did they fight that they were forced to have a look at one, another, until Holden, trying hla last chance, sent oirt Us right, whloh, from his approaching blindness, missed Its mark, and Morris went to work with both hands, and fought the game Hol- don down at the rones. and last, Holdenwas up as resolute as.a lion, but. going blind as fast as he could; ho. tried all that nature would allow him to turn the tables on his opponent, who met .hia-raih with hearty good will, and took a decided lead to the in-flghttag, by getting on to the right eye several times, and finally closing It. Poor Holden could not see his opponent, who fought him down to the middle of the ring. On being carried to his corner,-It was found that Holden was completely blinded, and that his further chance of victory waa destroyed, therefore bis father. threw up the sponge for his dofeat, and Morris scored the dexnth vittory, after fighting exactly 2 Aour* 0Wn«(a. Holden was much out.np at his defeat; and It was not for some time, that he would listen to the consolations, arc, of his friends. * -■ * BEMABXS. It must have been the wish of all who witnessed this really splended fight that the chronicler .of the P. B,, had more fre- quent opportunities Sot placing similar details of science, skUL and courage before the public After many of the recent exhibi- tions perpetrated to the name of "the noble art," it was refrrah- tog to watch the progress of this battle; and It positively helped redeem the tarnished reputation of pugilism. The contest wiH be long marked with a white stone to the memories of those who were fortunate enough to be present The winner, whorls a well-conducted and civil lad, Is one of the most talanted bantams that has appeared since the days of the late wonder, (Toe, Holies. He Is a remarkably olever.loft banded boxer, and r besides, la not defficlent to the use of nls right) but-hls-partidular puglllstio genius Is a coolness and preolalou to discovering bis adversary's weak points, and Immediately taking advantage thereof by keep- tog continually picking at the earns spot' He is a shrewd Judge and knows when to force the. pace and when to rest 'and avoM danger by getting down without infringing a rule. Young Hol- den is a tine and manly boxer, and fully realises the promise we held out to our readers ln our remarks upon his fight with Char- ley Lynoh. Although defeated he Is by no means disgraced, but has raised hlmsolra whole host of friends, who,;we hear, are willing to give him a chance of retrieving his laurels..' Morris fell weak soon after the commencement of the battle, but that no.doubt arose from the Illness he'bad been suffering from dur- ing nil training. The shifty tactics he displayed,are by no means put Into force from cowardice, although at times trespass- tog very closely upon the limits of the referee's authority, who considered It his duty to give a caution onoo.. Holden waa much out np at his defeat, and ft was not for some time that he recov- ered anything like equanimity of mind. ' .Peter Morris-went round to the company on behalf of his gallant opponent, and a handsome subscription was collected as a reward for hla bravery and good cohduot during the encounter. He is the stamp of a pugilist-who deserves every possible encouragement, and we shall be glad to ascertain that hla friends and the publlo get him up a bumping bene^t, Jack Macdonald was In Morris's corner, and by bis advtoe and attention did muoh towards the oucoeea of Master.

What we saw" we will write. Mortlock and Tom Humphrey began the Surrey Innings, Wffl- eher bowling, and'John Lyllywhlte umpiring at the Pavilion-end wicket, and Mr. V.' E. Walker bowling and Old SsjJB umpiring at the other. Wlllaher. bowled a maiden over, andVdld Mr. y, E. Then Mortlockmade a cut for 3 from Wlllaher'esecond over, snd a single from Mr. Walter's second. Then Humphrey was wss well caiight by Grundy at short leg, and one was down for 4 runs. .Mr. F. Burbidge then Joined Mortlock, and Willsherforth- with commenced his third over. >"No bollt" shouted out John LUlywhlte, end she was well caught for a 4 by Mr. Burbidge. WUlsher tnen howled the second ball of the oyer. "No ball 1" roared John LUlywhlte 'again, and a murmur of surprise ran round the ground. The) .third ball was bowled, and "No ball I" again shouted by the umpire; and tho lookers-op sprang to their feet and vejjad their .feelings, pro and am. Wlllaher, evidently pained, eenrtho fourth ball to, and again was "No baUl" cried by John L.—and the 6,000 lookers-on ln s state. of great excite- ment. The fifth, the sixth, snd eveh> seventh ball was bowled by WUlsher; arid "No balled I" by Llllyfebire, and then Wlllaher threw the ball down, turned, round, and quietly and elpwly walk- ed off me. ground. Most of the other.EngUn4plajers after a brief consultation followed htm, leaving the "■two bramen; 'tbe two'nmplres, pie two England gentlemen, and Blddolph at their poets. '.The great multitude then rushed on to the grounds-sym- pathy for Wlllaher and support to John.LUIywhlte found venl jn loud anjLin some, oases; unmarily woxids, and saoh- a'scene'.^of i was witnessed at the Oval as we hope will never'be seen; again on a cricket ground: Play was stopped for that day.' ■ The two gentlemen on the England. side said they would be ready to continue the play on the'followtog morning. The playors agreed to do as the gentlemen did.' WilJsher'regretted -that he left -the ground, and John'LUlywhlte—to his great credit—refused to coottoue tofimplrtrn) the match if bis decisions were to be to any shape or way controlled. So It was understood' that oh the mo/row a substitute for LUlywhlte should be found, and the' match proceed, Wlllaher> bowling to paas unchallenged. This Is a simple and truthful account of what Ocourred on- the evening of Tuesday, August 37th. . v . Wzdnbsdat— After some difficulty, an umpire to act ln John Llllywhlte's place wss found to George Street,'avery worthy .fel- low. Play to the match was resumed at five minutes to twelve. WUlsher snd Mr. V. E. Walker bowled, and ln two hours the 'Surrey Eleven were all out for 102 runs. - Of oourse they foUowed on. -There was som6dashing; brilliant bitting shown by Oaflyh, Mr. 7. Burbldge.'Tom Humphrey,' E, H. Stephenson and Grifflth; the latter made the only 6 hit to the.match, a rasping off drive from Jackson. But as the second Innings progressed,' itibeosmo evident to Judges the match could not tie played qut WUlsher,' (who had bowled to the morning; we aotlced)'was again put on, and groaned at' by some, beery, contemptible, and cowardly fel' lows* who taew as muoh about.what they were grunting at as s/ pig, and we were delighted to see their !fhalf and half" opinions drowned by the applause of tho sensible portion of the visitors.* At half past eix~ on Wednesday evening the stumps wero ipulled up, and the game was declared, "drawn," Surrey having- four wJoketB to go down" In their second Innings snd 247 runt behind the- firtt innings of Bngland.. .There were.no less than .1,698 halls bowled,,769 runs scored, and 26 wickets down to this memorable matoh; of which the following la the full score:— ENGLAND—First Innings.
