He might however, have added to hla UpreU'bya little forbearance towards th^ end of the battle. Had he gone np to Us opponent and. Instead of planting on Mm vrith all his strength, pushed him down'wltb hU open hands, wUch we are convinced he might have done, he would have gained a ohuscter for humanity, and won the admiration of all present Probably, however, he had Ah eye to the splendid stake Just within his grasp, and was determined not to give away a chance of losing It Ko one seemed more astonUned than himself at his easy vlctoiy, for that he thought the taskwoold h^ve been more difficult may be gathered from ah observation Itaad'e by him on the morning of the mill,; "That Us friends would have to carry blm away bn a hurdle when It was over." Thocawho sawfinmvan fight Spades said they never'saw, so great a difference; he looked like a little boy on tUs occasion, and much too light He had not given himself time enough to train, and was evidently too fine, u the first two rounds he ep- >peared to think he had only to find out the style of hU opponent —who, we nisy observe,'he had never seen JioU np a hand be- fore—and then the vlotory wonU be easy; 'When ^e inidll- Sence was conunumlcated to White that Us opponent was in oif- cultles, he took care that he Should have no .time to recover. Beeelvlilb little or no punUhment he required no careonfhe part of Us seoonds, while Bnlllvan, on the contraiy, required and 'received the moat careful nonlng. Indeed, It was owug to this that he was enabled to protract the fight for so long,- By the time he hsd recovered nom the dizziness following returning consclonsness, hei was flrlghtftilly punished, and feu ofl'wosk. Nothing, however, could tneaibly exceed the game manner in wUoh he oame np every ronnd, and the efforts he made againtt , nature to turn the scale in Us fkvor.' Before closing our remarks, we may take the opportunity of etrdngly reprobating the system of hitting and getting ip^m. To guard against tUs unfair prootlce, arlglnaled by Btndlao, and wUoh was getting Into vogue in the Loridon F. B,, the fol- lowing rule waa introduced by tho Fuglliatio AssocUtloQ:— "That it shall be'a fkirstsnd-npflghV and'If either man shall wilfully throw-himself down without receiving a blow, whether blows shall have previously been exchanged or not, he shall be deemed to have lo«t thel>attle; bnt that this role ehaU not apply to a man who in a doea slips down firdm the grasp of Us oppo- nent to avoid puniahmeni, or bom obvious accident or weak- ness," According to this mle, 'WUto lost the fight in the 18th, 10th, and again in the 90th round, and had the referee, when sp- liealed .to^y:Bob U'Laren, given the battle to BnlUvsn, Us fle- olalon oould not have been impeached- We do not thlnki'how- 'ever, that, the'referee had any knowledge of the-Uwijiipted abovd.' A ooUeotlon was'made in the ring for linlllvani'Bmbnnt- Ing to ta IBs, wUoh we hope will be ongmented on the giving up of the stakes. It U stated, and we beUove with truth, that he found a large portion of the etakea' himself, afad hla expenses of training, l:o., have lieen very heavy. At the condnalon of the fight, Bulllvan remained some time In the arms of Us seconds, weeping bitterly. Dave 'White .walked over to his comer, and having shaken hands with him, promised to got up a benefit and head a subscription for him. Bulllvan was soon after poiiTf yed to the nearest nonse, a qnarle^ of a mile off, where he received every attention tnm his seconds and firiends. . By easy stages he reached Us hostelrlecp Baturday,Buffering more fromde- Siesslon of qtlrlta than-from hU bodily hurts. On the day of 10 fight, the excitement was intense-inl Sydney; tho crowds near Taiie^sall's and the Bportsman|e Arms rendered Fltt street nearly impassable;. Ur. O'Brien, of Tatteisall'e, had arranged that a irell-monhted .messenger should galUpfrom the ring to the nearest telegraph station, about twenty miles, and send the result to him the same evening. -When he announced that Bnl; llvan Jiad loat he was not believed; a subaeqlient telegrsm, how- ever, set all doubts at rest and- then all sorts' of rnmois were afloat that Sullivan could kot Uve, was djead, &o. It was a roUef, thefefon, vfhen Us friends who saw tfie flght returned on Thurs- day to Bydhey. That hU .punishment was frlghtf^illy. severe fiay be gathered qrom.tbe fact that ' he hsd not been able to leave bis house when the W^onga Wongs left Sydney ^ Tnesday last We cannot record: the.glvlng up of the stokes, though we eaW a letter from Dave WUte to the stake-holder, reqnestlng that he would forward the thouaand corlanders to. Baumrst—a request wUoh that fniiollonarydeoIlned .taBcoedeto, for two reasons. The flrst was that he was not familiar with WUte's hand-vnltlng, uid . the Utter might have been a hoai; and, seoondly, tiiat'he was in possession of an agreement in wUch It was aUpuUted that the stakes were to be glvon up at the 6portsman's;Aimsj in ' Sydney. We imagine, therefore, that 'WUte will have to go to Sydney to receive the frnlta ofiUsvlctery. ' •BIK& OK Dm.

The ruh-get- ting, individually and collectively, by Elevens, hss been un- precedentedly great nins. In the match bitween.tne Bur- re^ Olub and Ground vs, Middlesex, no less than l,OiQ runs were scored. Then as to innings made by Elevens,' In the match between OhesUre and IiUdlow, the Oheablre gentlemen scored a "single innings" of'817; and, aa all the cricket world know, tho EngUnd Eleven, In thrir "no ball"nutch against Sur- rey, pUyed the fine single Innlnos of <I08 runs, Bnt great scores as these unquestionably are, theywere both'nnmericallysur- passedontliellth September on the Brighton gronnd, where, in one day's pUy, the gentiemen of the Souuidown dub "scored an Innings of107 runs, for tho loss of five Mokets only;<' this stands a long way ahead of any batting feat yet recordea,' In addition to these there have been two single innings of 4SlpUyed—ofae by the Briightoi^ Collegians, and the other by the Clifton cinb. Ttien the Beven of the Burton-by-Lincoln diib pUyed a single innings of Hi, and the gentlemen of Norfolk one of US runs. Going a trlfie lower, we ascertain that there were no less thto 31 Innings of 800 runs and upwards pUyed in 1862; one of 870 was played bylliddlesei; one.of .963byBouthgate;. cneof 3S9wa8 scored by the Bugby Scholars; and two of 860 were attained— one played by the gentlemen of South Eants, and the other by the Cambridge Long'Vacation olub. The Uarylebone—with the efildentald of Ur. E. M. Grace—pUyed a single innings of 3M; and one of 339 was pUyed by the "Present Etonians.'' To eria- merate the remainder of the.sIngU innings of'800 nms and oyer would occupy too muoh space; bnt the most Interesting of those tmnoUced Is the 806 scored by the Eleven In AtutralU. Great however, as the 1883 scoring of Elevens has been, they ore alfo- gether edlpsed .by the aggregate scoring and gmat Inplngs made y individual batiman,!nve of whom-have scored npwardsjof 1,000 runs eaoh. Thus, Ur. E U. .Grace hss. mjrie 1,333 mns during the past season'; '^ Thomas Hayward has (we believe) eiduslve of Us U In the dnglc wicket match, scored 1,809 runs; Bobert Carpenter has (we belleveO made 1,104 runs: William UorUodt has scored 1,144 qina in England, and 2(8 In AustraUa; and George Anderson has inade'1,010. Here We have five men scoring 6,979 runs between them; and yet some dever cricketers still maintain "the bowling Is equal to the bat- ting." Bnt an the batting feaU that we have yet recorded shrlhk into comparative nothings when we como t^ notuy the thraf h- Ings the bowling has tUa season had lirom that extraordinary batsman, Ur. E U.
