agreeaoiy to me laws or ood and man!A fracas rook place a few nights since, in a bil-llani-roorti at the West end of the town, b-tw.-en a dashing young Nobleman and a Brandy Merchant, in consequence of the former, who betted largely on the play of the latter, accusing him-of losing whenever lte pleased. 1 his affront was resented by the Merchant, who gave the young Noble a p.of that' he was not out of spirits, by telling him that lie was a rascal for throwing out such an insinuation. The iprig of Nobility who is well vers-d in the pu^Ihtk science, immediately knocked down the Wine'Merchant. A regular boxing-mutch ensued, but the contest proved very unequal. The noble disciple of Mendoza, being possessed of more strength and skill than his opponent, who has ever placed his de-■endance *lely upon, his spirit,, soon overcame the Merchant; but the affair is not expefted to rest here the parties being determined to have a ,p*rri*£ match aa Wvtatjastcr Hall, before that sage umpire. Lord Awyoa.
