Althongb the night waa itry etormy the hall vaa orowded, and arery tblng passed off remarkably veil' The following la the order in whiob the aet-tos (took pUoe: f Iffj/.—Tilton and Bait. Thia was TCry fair, both / being ereoly matohed, and were well reeelTcd. Steond. —Toting Haley end Sparks—an exoellent dliplay—both were loudly applaud^; bntFonag Haley ihowed the moat eoience. TIrUd —OarelcsB Boy and Jobn Wood. Ihia Taa an esoiting affiir, aod at the third ronnd the former waa knocked aenaeleee, and did not "come to" for nearly three minntee, after wbloh be got the beat of Wood. Fnulh—Siaitb and MoDermott, Thia waa a Tery fhort trial, aa Smith <• loet his temper" In the third roDBd, when Price took bim oat. Jf!/2A.—Define and Maekle—a ehorl set-to, whioh didn't aaonnt to anything worth mentioslng. SixfA.—Qrey and the Wild Irishman." Thia boat oieated more merriment, among the audience, than any other dorlng the eTaniog, both showing snob " eolenoe In atopping each other's blows, and the attitndea thoy atmok, when defending tbemseWee. Old nroreisora of the naaly art might bave learnt new doagei, pasaaa, Ao., If the/had watched them closely. Seeenth. —Green and Kenny, (amatenra). Nctmnoh of any aocount, althongb they will, in tine, make good Utters. ' figUft—Oobnm and Tonng Oolbert This waa a very good thing, and bothreoeived ahonta of applanse; bat Oobora had the beat of it by all odds. ATnM.—Hobba and Seotty—a clever thing, althongh Sootty bad It nearly all his own way. Tenth, and /as(.—Barney Vord and Tonng Xd, Prloa qipeared for the wind-np. Before oommeoolngi B. re- turned hla thaoka to tbe andlence for the klndneea they had shown him in coming out fn such large nombera on svoh a bad night, and he likewise atated that Price wcnld take a benefit on Monday evening, 2Stb. They then commenced the wlnd-np, which waa trnly a master nleoe of seir-defenee> both doing their utmost. Barney is in bad condition, having beea slok the past three montba; Price, on theoontrary. ia In good oonaition, which may, possibly, acconnt for his getting a little the beat of Barney. Oebun took the first prlte and Tonng Haley the seeond. Somincx Bradlxt's BxHiBmoiv.—The Sparring Exhibition, previously announoed, for the benefit of Domiolck Bradley, took plaee inPhlladelpbla, at Fraok- Un Hall, on tbe 22d nit., and waa (A; exhibition of the atBson, not in regard to nnmbera, but in reference to the even manner in whioh the spairers were matohed. ne entire management of the exhibition waa of a dif- ferent eharaoter Irom that naually manifested In eparring exUbltlona, and everybody waa well pleased. The sparring commenced by a set-to betweea Can Dongherty and Tonng Barney Aaron The latterwas nnexpeoted. and his appearance took those present by surprise—he sparred well, and Dan remarked that It was rather " tight fiapera," for him. Davis, of Liverpool, and Johnny [asson next put on tho gloves—this set-to was warm vcrk, and " brcnght down tbe hoaee" by its excellence. Davla at one time fell headforemoat off the stage, and would have beeneerionely injured, had not Mr. Bradley caught him before he reached the floor. Hatson proved himself the better man in thia conteat. MoCnen and Tbompaon next played n <• hand out," when Pete Bradley and Jno. Trainer appeared—this was on " even thing." it being dlfflonlt to say wbo had tbe beet ol it. Martin and Jonnaon were next Introduced—this was more of a wreatling than eparring match—tbe former giving his opponent an ngly fall, whioh ahook the house again. .Aaron and Tonng Bendlgo then bad a lively time of it After this, oame Mike Bradley and Caywooo, the latter bavlngratber the beet of tbehlttlog. Two light weights, Pels Sradley and Morris, then took a tarn, and gave a olever aet-to. Tom O'Coanell nnd Mike Bradley had some aliup work—It was give and take, and no " let np." Tbe wind-up of the evening's eports was than annonhcedi between Phil Glare, of New Tork, and SoibiDick Bradley. Thia set-to waa anxlonsly looked . forward to, Phil Olare being known to be agood 'on, es well as bis opponent At It they went, and after a pretty severe tusele, in which eome blows were ad- nialstered soffleient to fell an ox, and In whioh neither eae gained an advantage, the men retired, and the ..audience dispersed. Jemmy Smith, the Belfast Barber, . noted Rs maater of serempnies. OaviLLii OARnitBR's EUHismoN.—Notwithstanding the prloe of admittance to Orvllle Gardner's iparrlngex* hibitlon, on Monday evening last, waa SO cents. Shake.' speare'Hall, a fine large room by tbe way, was eomfort- aely filled by a reapeccable audlenoe.

Andy Kelly and J. Gallagher ; Oharlay Lynch and Charley Eolmee; John MoUshon, and Pat FarroU: Hagh HcClaln and Con Kagan; Tonng Dwyer anl Tonng OalRry; W. Tovee and Jaok Adams. Where all waa good. It would be ont of placeto.partlcnlarlae. The eparring, aa a general thing, waa realy excellent, and mneh pieaaed thoae who witneastdlt. Old Tpvee and Adana appeared in fighting costune. The wind-np was given by Phil. Glare and Orvllle Qardner, and. al- thongb the latter seemed to be aonewha^ontof prtotice, he ocbvisotd the apectators that he itlUnnderateodthe delineation of the adenoe; he la a good atopper, and ao 'proved hlmseir on Monday evenBig, notwlthitanding Qlara la a dlfflonlt man to atop, his blows being sent in like a eledge hammer. The entire exhibition waa a com- plete ancoeas, and ehowa that a proper management of '■ eihlbitloDS in appreclaUd by lovers of the sport, no matter what (be price may be. There aeena to be a dls- poeiUon maalfeeted la aparrlng elreles to have exUbl- tlona condneted In a more atralghtlorwud and honest manner than they have heretofore been.

PEDESTBIANISH. Foot Back in Buffalo —Tbe following report of a fbot race wbloh oame off In Bnffalo, should have reached us before, bntprobablv waa miscarried. A fireman'a foot raoe took plaee at Miller's Riding Qallery, on tbe 16tb April, the conditions of which were as follows i eaoh engine or hose company of the department to selcet a runner from their oompany, and each one to run sepa- rate—distance nine time around the gallery, (which tbe jndges enoneottaly put down la making one mile) the company winning to receive a set of fiaoed picturea, and the runner hinuelf to receive $S. There waa much excitement created among tbe firemen, and the home was crowded. Tbefollowinglaasummary oftheentrles, and the time made: Sanntr. Tint. OtouU 9:33 Vndirlapr.

We would respeetfully snggcat to these gentlemen, or throngh them to the proprietor of the Oallery, the propriety ofeorrcctly measdring the aforeaaid ring, for la our opinion, nine dronlta, will make aoaroely two tbirda of a mUe,lnatead of a mile, as stated.

FRTOB, UOOMTB AND lONNOW—FBTOB TBI WDQinL Thb announoement that three saoh horaea as Lecomte, Prior and Minnow were to contend for the purse, three mile beata, over the Union Oourae, yeaterday, created a Seat deal ol exoltemebt, as may well be snpposed. Tbe y waa beautlfal—neither too hot nor too cold. The excitement which waa eauaed by tbe announoement ol the race wsa general; It pervaded " all aorta of people," and manlfeated Iteelf In many ways. The rain, which fell In torrents the evening prevlondy, bad made tbe coarse heavy, slow and nnelaatla Inapolsit waaaticky, aomnoh ao, that it showed plainly upon the boofis of ths contending nage, as one or two of them passed tbe ataod In a trot. This, however, waa mainly confined to the space between tbe drawgates; the remaining portlona ot tbe course, to the casual observer, looking remarka- bly weU. Tbe betting was aa varied aa betting' men oonld have wlthed. Pryor oloaelas the Ihvorite vs. the field, at 9600 to $400. Upon stripping the nags, Pryor looked the perleollon of elegance, "the glasa of faablon and ^be mould of form," and moat bave delighted hla backera bv hla ez- traptdtnaty apparent power and mascniar development, each mnaole and " each partlonlar bair" being exactly In the right place-bla coat betokened tbe fineat healthy and bis eagemets for the conteat was plainly manifest. Minnow looked vigorous and In good spirits, bat In one abert week abe had shrunk too mncb. To the eye ot a close observer abe aeemed to have lost In flesh at least ona hundred ponnda. Leconte waa not Lecomte, althongb hla many frlenda stood by him manfully in tbe betting circle, md loat tbeir money, dollar for dollar. He was greatly reduced In flesh—more ao than we have ever aeen bIm. Hla coat had not a healthy, gloasy look, and the new baIr peeping ont showed tooplainly that he had shed hla old coat prematurely. Hla eye beto- kened vigor, bnt bis step bad lost Its elasticity, and he looked like a brave old hero in the act of leading a " for- lorn hope," not for himself, bat bis posterity ; and al- thongb he had a remarkable turn of speed, when be wsa called upon, he could not, for want of strength, respond to it. The race requires no lengthened description, for al' though Pryor loat tbe first heat, it was very palpable that he did not rnn for It, Minnow bebg second and Le- comte .winning it, witbont a straggle, amidat deafening shouts. The aeoond heat Pryor took tbe lead, bnt re- algned it to Lecomte before they bad fiilriy got into Btralght work upon the backstretoh, and at tbe half mile post Lecomte was at least thirty feet In advance. Tbe pace aeemed regular and steady, and they ran half ol tbe second mile pretty mnob In the same position. Pry- or neared bin atonnd the torn of'the homestretob,'and a pretty sharp aonOe ensned down tbe home mn. Pryor led' bIm at the aland, and inet after puaUig It, Gil, on Lecomte, waa again In tbe lead; at tblrmoment the Joy of tbe Lecomte party was unbounded, and wasmanlleat- ed in tbe moat unearthly aounda that ever rent the air; tbeir Joy was, however, short-lived—Piyoi's rider had made a mistake, not, however, fatal, In thinking that the heat Was at an end; recovering himself, be lat sail, and catching Lecomte on tbe backetretob, he paseed hin like a dart, and from that moment all the intereet bl the raoe waa at an end. The third heat Minnow tried it on with Pryor, but. tone porpose, Leoomte content with taking bla place aa aecond, having won tbe flrit heat, and making no effort beyond getting in his dlatanoe.
