Heenan and Tom Etog, are reported to be to ruddy health, and aa the merry days of Xmutlde sp- preach, the totereat taken to the pugUlaUc battle, to come off between them on Deo. eih, tocreaae* rapidly. The Benlda Boy waa atlll at Brighton at laat accounts, from whence he was to make a trip to "Lunnun Town" on the STth ult, to be present at the ataktog of another Inatalment of tSO, at Owen Swift's, to Piccadl lly, where he would meet his to-be opponent face to face, aa Tom Etog also promlacd to be on hand, anre. The event to qneatlon wu cspccted to be very "eolatti," aa it was the first time n about twenty yean itoce any puglUallo encounter baa been bon. ored by Ite monetary totercate havtog been attended to InOwes'a famona hoatalrie, tbe Uat ataktog dona there having been the first matoh between Teas Parker and the Tipton Slasher. Specu' latlon on the great event to not, as yet, very briek, nor need we expect agrcatdealofbeltisgtobedoDeforaeveral weeks, aa all thoae who wlah to "get on" will no doubt have ample oppottnnl. ty within tbe thirty dayn Immediately preceding tbe battle. In this country the quotatlcna are altogether to fSvor of Heenan, whloh la not to be wondered at, becauae of hla betog one of ua, and BO few Americana having aeen Elng, either to or out of the ring. It Is somewhstaaloalibtog, however, tbat tbe Britlabeia should have so little confidence to the man of their choice, Klog, as to sak the odds of 3,8,4, and even np to 6 to 1. Thla slate of thinga la very flatlarlag to Eeenan, bnt we fear hla party will have to aoare up "a very large fortln' to sUvler snd gold" to tovosi, U they wlah to wto a very extensive pile. From the evidence that cornea to hand through newapapers, letters, and thoae who have recently been to England, we ahould judge that It la nnlTersilly conceded that Heenan has a surathtog. We shall be delighted to have It proven so; bnt we mnat conteas to betog a Utile tloor' one about sure thinga, before the time, However, we ahall see what we aball see. Tbe Bevioia Bot Aim Ton Satebs.— Alderman Beaaley, of Utlcs, was one of the pasaengers to tUaport on the Qreat Eaat- em'a laat voyage. Ee made the trip partly to aee the Boy and hla Famborpugh opponent on the memorable 17th of April, 1860, taking a letter of introduction to John from hla friend, AL Con- rey, of the "Expreaa." In Ihla the alender UHcaa offldalwas not disappointed, havtog dtoed both vrllh "the Benteh"and the Sayeni," and otherwlaa enjoyed himself to toelr company. It ia quite correct tbat Eeenan has an Intereat to a hotel at Brighton, It he doean't own It altogether, Bayers' opinion of tbe forthcomtog battle, tho Alderman aaya,tethat the Boy's style of hltttog will ao toteifere with the Klog'a dignity that he won't want to atey over half a day there. "We cam't tall whether tbe feller'a got bottom enough to atend up with Heenan tbe way he did with Uace or Bioome;" waa the hero of Plmllco'a wise re- mark, bnt be very naturally wishes to see Hoenan wto, aa for him to lose would detract from Sayera' own reputetlou to a great extent. One thtog Is pretty certato, and tbat la, Tom Bayers will be to Haenan'acoroer when he fkces ^om Ktog. ToK Batbbs Backs Eeenab.— A gentleman lately netnmed' from England, and an totlmate /Mend of tbe brare little ex- Ohamplon of England, toforms ns that Tom has ttO in Heeian's matoh with Ikim ^Ing, and wanted to go another £80, but aa yet it haant bean required.

T., baa been the Important event to anUolpallon In aquatic circlea. Cornwall te a vary pleuant rural retreat dnrtog the dog daya, and la anngly eltnated under the ahadow of that huge mountein familiarly anows as "The Storm Etog," Jnat where the noble Budaon widena firom tbe narrowa into what te known aa New- burgh bay. It te about 60 mllea from New Tork, and five miles aoutb of Newburgh, and la reached by tbe Budaon river railroad and ferry, or by toe many ateamboate paaalngnp and down. Including tbat teat craft the MaryPoweU. It la allbntauper- fluoua to aay that tbe Journey thither, whether by cara or boat, la a moat deUghtful one in fine wralber, and that waa onr ex- perience on tbe momlng of the eventful day, September 3d, as we traveled behind the Iron horse In the 7:30 A. U. ttsto, srrlv- log at onr deatlnatlon at 10:30. As we crossed the bay to a ferry boat propelled by two atelwart admlrera of rowing, we took ncica of the weather. Tbe flftog clouda aonddlng along from the aouto weat, todlcated wtod, and we feared a postponement woold be ordered, as smooth water was guaranteed; bot Old Boreas, the father of blowers, patronised tbe aport, and when the time for tbe conleate to begin arrived, tho bay waa as placid as a lake, and the eun abone out brlllltntly, giving it snd the eurrouDdlng scenery, wltbtne towns of Newburgh and Flaliklll In the dtetencc, the appearance of onevaat and blghlr colored picture. The regatte waa gotten op by a number of gontlemen vlaltora to the bealthfol and aport yleldtog region of Cornwall, by whom the fnnda for prlz*s, etc, were auDacrttwd, and the aoolalarrangementecontrolled; tbe management of the racea being left In the banda of Joahua Waid, tbe champion, than whom no better aekcUon could have been made. Alter rofreab- log the toner man wltb a aubetantlal repiat atSmlth and Ward's Hotel, we took a atroU "around town,'' and made the acqnatot- tence of a nnmber of gentlemen tbere preaent to aee tbe aport, and were appointed ona of the committee by Ur.

In batttog, both parllea were eqoally atroig; to fleldtog, about equal; bnt to bowltog the Willows are oomparstlvely weak, and lack change. On the oontrsry, toe BL Ocorge have excellent bowlers in toe petaoDS of Qlbbea, U. Wright, O. Wright, and Lang, wito bte alowa. Waller, too, to a third or fonrto eleven, te Immenae. Thla difference glvea tbe St. Oeorge "two by hon- cTi" almoat every time, and te the chief reason of their bavlUR gained a victory In this aa In toe first match between tbe two clnba.

The original entrlea for thte event were Auguatoa Uoaher, of Newburgh; Elite Ward, brotoer of Joeh.: and Uoyd Ooodaell, of Cornwall; but the latter aubre- qnently vrttodrew, leaving toe choice of prizea for toe remalntog two to contend for. In caae of accident or fouling, an umpire. In toe person of Dudley B. Oregory, Jr., of Jeisey City, waa cboaen to decide all dteputea. At about 3:10, toe two lithe and mneoular youtoa havtog fallen In line,Ward to tbe Elale and Uoaber In toe J. Bancon, the gun was fired for toe start, and off they went Uke a flaab, Moaber leadtog a little, but was soon overhauled by Ward, boto men laying down to their work vigoroualy. Ward, wIto a long and graoefal eweep, evidently patterned after hla brother Joab'a method, Hoeher'e being aomewbat faster, but pretty, and calculated for a high rate of apeed. From toe atart to tbe alake boat, anchored a mile dtetent up tbe bay, toe race waa beautiful' ly contaalad, bow and bow being toe word almoat toe whole dls tence. Ward, havtog drawn toe let or Inelde poalllon, bad a 111. tie advantage on toe tarn "from left to right," and boto having gone too far to toe weatward, incraaaed It, and Ward came round aome two lengtos ahead. Betting up to this time bad been llmlled, bnt on aaetog Ward homeward bound with a good lead, tbe de.lrc for apeoutetlon waa increaaed among hla f/lends, and from even, 10 to 30 on him ware toe quototlona, with aome few tekers st tbo latter figurea. At toe diatance of a mile tooy looked like mere apacka on too water, but ae tooy drew nearer, toelr strenuous «f. forte to reach toe goal ahead wore better seen and more appreci- ated, and when toey hove to full view toe moat voclfercua cneera rent toe air, and a thunder atorm of aboutnig waa given for Ward aa he daabed paat toe line on an extra apurt, wluning gallantly byabontflveboatl^ngtha^n 13:07, An IntermlBajon for nuialc and "Ihe vtotage of champigue" here occuired, ^fi the optolon waa all but nnanlmoua that toe "draught" waa a good thtog, toere betog but a few oxempte among either ladiea or gentlemen to tbat Ward—town. After quaffing, Uugbtog. and Joking for aome mtootea, too merry makora were atarllcd by the report of the gun to prepare for the Eeoond Back.— The original entries for this contest were John Bancon, Sotemcn Relyea, Gilbert Ward, ^another brother of tbe Champion) and William Bupbena, all well known phrenologlala; bnt Solomon, like a wise man, took a back aeat, and made room for John BIglto of New York. The dietence waa toree mllea for first and aecond prizea of $70 and $30 respectively, Ihe qnar. toUe one after another soon made toelr appearance and todnlgrd In aeveral preliminary apurtr, Juat to exhibit their muscle to toe ladiea and gentlemen on board. Belting at thla time was bttek, at even principally belweec Ward and Btephena, toe latter for choice on account of Ward havtog a troubleaome feluo on hie right thumb. Odda of 30 to 16 ware to teolatod cuea bet on tbe fieet agaloat Stephens. After toe men wore ranged bow and bow In the following order-Bancon In Ibe W. It. Bill No. 1, StepboD> In tbe WUlle D. Ward No. 3, Ward to the Dick Blsdon No. 3. and BIglln to the Ogden No. t, tbe gun waa fired at 3:46 to be off, and each man'a aouUa dropped almulteneouely Into toe water, and away they went, Hancon helping hlmacU to a little the teat ot toe atart. Btephtna and BIglln not making a atralgbt course, fouled aoon alter tbe etert, but cleared toemaelvea immediately. Ward waa rather alow in getting off, and being between toete two, he waa aomewbat impeded. Tbla lltt]e amlrriempi appeared to Im) In no way totentlonal, and all banda were aoon bard at work to accompUah their joumev. They were not long In getting out of eight, so tbat wltoout glaaaea it waa all but Impossible to see toelr reapecUve poalUona. Aa they came In belter view alter tumtog, however.
