Uonfeon, SATURDAY JULY 16. WE are not sorry to find that Mr. O Coil- neil begins to show some symptoms of a disposition to retreat from the prominent situation which, unfortunately for his coun- trymen. he has assumed in the management of the Catholic Cause. Certain we are, that that cause iiever can succeed unless taken out of his hands, and those of the whole brief-hunting fraternity. It is a question, however, even whether this step will not now come too late, and whether the indiscretion and apparent insincerity of the Catholic Leaders have not thrown back the attainment of their object to an im- measurable distance. If the cause itself has not lost ground the last six months, it is quite, clear that a much warmer and more general tone of opposition to it has arisen in this country than existed previous to the embassy of the Dublin Lawyers.— That the object is one not worthy of the trouble or fuss that has been made about it, and that the opposition to it is equally erroneous, we have been all along convinc- ed. At the same time we feel persuaded, that instead of retrograding, the cause must have ad vanced with the liberal and enlighten- ed feelings of the age, had it not been for the worse than indiscretion of Mr. O'Connell and his immediate ,tssociates.- We should be slow to impute personal mo- tives to any man; but Mr. O'Connell's memorable reference to his Fee-Book, and his continual harpings about his personal sacrifices, show pretty clearly, we think, that his patriotism, like that of many greater men, is grounded in self. But we would ask, are such paltry objects as finding half a dozen silk gowns and as many seats in Parliament, for Mr. O'Connell and his Learned Frcinds, such as ought to harass and divide a whole coin rii,,iiii (;v'! At any rate, Lord Mansfield's memorable charac- teristics of the person who pleads his own cause in a Court of Justice is strongly ex- emplified in the case before us for we will venture confidently to predict, that as long as Mr. O'Connell is his own advocate, so long at least will his silk gown continue in abeyance. a.

Extract of a letter from Bogot,,t: Ilre have received news that General Bolivar has just escaped assassination at Lima.- M. Monteagudo was assassinated in that city, and, upon examination, of the body, it was found that he had been stabbed with a sharp poniard. All the cutlers of Lima were, of course, examined one of whom said that, at the request of a negro, he had sharpened two poniards that he knew not the name of the negro, but shoiud know him if he saw him again. A proclamation was immediately issued ordering a general 0 enlistment for the army, but excepting all slaves and Mackmcn. M was a trap laid for them as necessary for the service of the city, to which effect they were, ordered to call for a bill of exception at the office of Adjutant-General; they presented them- selves accordingly, and the cutler, who was concealed, easily knew the owner of the two poniards, who, being suddenly grasp- ed, as the murderer of M. Monteagudo, and asked where the two poniards were ?, answered by confessing his guilt, and pro- ducing one of the poniards; and added, that as he could not have been discovered hut by the decree of Providence, he would declare that he had been seduced to that crime by the Governor of the Castle of Cal- lao (see the model of that infamous Fer- dinand), and that the other poniard was to be found within the sleeve of the left arm of General Bolivar's head servant, who was to murder him the night of that very (lay. The poniard was found as it was said. This is the seventh or eight time that that friend of mankind has escaped assassin- ation; and yet the diabolical rulers of the Spaniards are not yet treated like tigers, as they are. Under the head of news from Greece, the Etoile gives extracts of letters from Smyrna, of the 10th, 14th. 15tb, and 17ti of JIlne. The French frigate, the Diana, Captain Began de la Rosiere, had released at Tino aneipolitait hark unjustly detained, and taken the Greek schooner, Polixena, which had plundered French property on board a Russian ship at Beirout. Captain R-, in a letter from Syra, June 8, mentions the disasters of the Turkish fleet, the burning of a frigate and two cor- vettes at Syra, and the consternation of the Turkish Captains, One of the ves- fcej.-i burnt had on board the treasures of the army. t.

¡THE FIGHT WEDl-¡;-;----;:-Sl'U\;';X'-STRATFORO-SHELTOM…
THE FIGHT WEDl-¡;Sl'U\X'- STRATFORO-SHELTOM AND BROWNM, FOR TWO HUNDRED POUNDS. Tins match was made as Irish fruit is shipped from Kerry, sight unseen. Browne wanted to tight somebody, and Shelton was ready to fight any body, so the challenge was given and accept- ed without either party seeing his antagonist.— Browne continued to remain in the back ground, and Shelton and the flash side, wlvi look upon cracking a countryman's head as a-cooiing recre- aiion on a summer's day, and as easily done as squeezing an orange, made quite certain of add- ing the great unknown to the long list of ambi- tious clodsmen who have. (lunar un their hats in a London ring, and been sent home waddling to the plough again. But as the day of fighting, ap- proached, strange hints were given that the Fan- cy were all at j'ault, and that Browne was under proached. strange hints were given that the Fan- cy were all at j'ault, and that Browne was under 'I' the hands of Tom Spring—petted and cherished and induced into all the mysteries of milling, to blaze forth as a great star, and the future Cham- pion. He was said to be young, full-grown, weighty, and, in short, with all the cardinal vir- tues and qualities of a hero. This was enough to daunt Shelton's friends a little; but when the story, strengthening as it came, showed Spring prostrate in sparring by this Goliah's hand, a panic, awful in the extreme, struck on every heart, and when, to make the climax of their confusion, George Cooper was beaten by Baldwin, giving a practical illustration that age cannot win against youth, the whole field of the flash ones was thrown into dismay, and like the flight at Waierloo, sauvc qui pent became the word. Shelton, instead of being regarded as the most slashing tighter of the day, was talked of as one that had been—but now too stale and slow for work. Those who were laying- odels of five and six to four upon him, closed their books and turned round upon Browne. But it is curious to remark how soon awake the Fancy are in London. The early bird picks up the Nvoi,rii btit, s(,iiie will not go out to be picked up, and though the knowing ones started at the first dawn, there was no one to be had. Betting was altogether suspended and those who had a lurking fancy for an old tried man. determined at least to wait and see the new one before they got into mischief. All that was distinctly known about Browne was, that he was matched against Sampson about two years since; but that, in consequence of family misfortunes, he was thrown into Warwick gaol for debt, and his engagement with Sampson was forfeited. The greater interest excited by the approaching battle between Cannon and Ward, 011 Tuesday next, and the long distance of the ground from town diminished the attraction of this flght.— Stoney Stratford was left in its usual state of pro- found repose, and the [food people of the town, who had shaKen off their hitbitual lethargy, and stirred up in hope of a little excitement, were abandoned to thoine«lv«s and their uiii'irv'ing so- litude, and to their daily occupation of counting passengers in every Birmingham and Liverpool coach, from the Umpire to the Mail. There was not more than fifty persons altogether from town, and of those-wilh all respect for their worships there was nothirigof ihe patrician order discer- nible. Shelton came down early on Monday to the Cock alone, and without one person to patronize or take care of him. It is said he has a very high patron in his own neighbourhood, but the fashion of the thing has gone, and men of for- tune are not disposed, as they were, to be in the same house, with the great unknown, and the Hn- xiety to get a peep at the latter was only to be equalled I by the eagerness with which a crowd at acountry fair await the opening of the caravan in which the Bonassus or some other mighty non- descript is conveyed by some wandering Polito. Many would have given a guinea to see him eat, and the hlcky few who had a sight were question- ed on all sides what kind he was. and who he was like. But-we mast all wait till he comes into the ring. The ring was formed at a place called Paul's Perry, about eight miles from Stratford, but the attendance was so scanty that the usual muster of waggons was dispensed with, and the outer circle was formed of gigs or farmers tax- carts only. At one o'clock on Tuesday both men í arrived 01 the ground; Shelton in his chaise ail ready for work, and Browne attended by Spring and Cribb. Browne was the first to throw his hat within the ropes, and his first step on the ground was flailed by his friends wilii cheers and three rounds of applause. Every eye was tLr;)ed upon him, and the immediate impression made by his ap- pearance was, that rumour had not done him more than justice. We never saw a finer man with his clotlies oil. He appeared to stand over six feet high, and to weigh fifteen stMW, finely propor- tioned, with a frame turned for activity as well as strength. He was well-dressed in a blue coat and riiiing boots, as a gentleman farmer, and the expression of his countenance,his manner, anll carriage, showed that he had been accustomed to V'afiSfeble station in life. V/e understood that he had been an extensive farmer at Bridg:enorth, in Shropshire, and from his youth accustomed to active and severe exercise, and much given to whacking the country bumkins. Family misfor- tunes having crossed him from his business, and the natural Jove of fighting impelling him at the same time, he turned his attention to the prize- ring, and having by good fortune met Spring at Hereford, he placed himself under his care, and thus, was induced to try his luck will. Shelton to begin with having a good look-out for the fu- ture—an eye to the championship, with friends ready to back him for .FMO, in case he made a win at starting, lie seemed quite at his ease, and expressed himself confident of success. Shel- ton, on coming to his post, was aiso cheered and wished success by those who had witnessed his former battles. He went up and shook hands with Browne in the most friendly manner, and seemed no way daunted by the disparity between them. It was said that he had been observed in the morning to be more anxious and nervous than he usually was before fighting. He had heard, no doubt, that he had to tight up hill, and a young man of 30, weighing fifteen stone, is- rather an awkward customer in the mind's eye of a veteren of 40. weighing but twelve stone and a half. Be of 40. weighing but twelve stone and a half. Be that as it may, in the ring he looked as game as a flint, and with his mind made up for mischief.— The odds were nominally guineas to pounds, or perhaps five to four 011 Browne; but t liei-e was a scarcity of money and bidders, and no business was done. The sun's power was excessive, and what between his broilillg rays anJ. tlw (lisposi- tion of the men, a warm day's work was booked as certain. Spring- and grandpapa Cribb waited on the eleee, and Hudson and Peter Crawley oil S helton, THE FIGHT. On stripping the difference between the men was still morn obvious. Shelton, though well trained, was thin and wort]. His loins and Irgs showed the want of stamina. Browne peeled al- most a Hercules his shoulders heavy and full of good hard stvff; his arms muscnlar and lengthy his loins strong and his legs perhaps rather fine for the size ofhis upper works, hut well shaped, He had every point of a good man his game and capability of giving and taldug were soou to be put to the proof. Round 1. Shelton threw himself into attitude. resting Oil uie rigm, itfg-nis leu nana prepared for mischief. Browne planted himself right wel! for a novice, but without the finish of the school both hands were up to his head, and his object seemed to be to cover his face from the slashing counters which Shelton was certain to make.— With his eye firmly fixed on Shelton's, he waited with gallanf composure for the attack. Sparring N' seti,iiii- out I)is for a moment. Shelton began by sending out his left* but Browne's head was too securely en- trenched behind his hands to be got at Shelton paused for an -instant, and then started left and right, made the latter fell slightly, but, Browne, as quick as thought, returned upon him and caught him on tile side of the head with the right hand, so hard that Shelton reeled away and staggered down.—(Immense, cheering for the young one.)— Shelton, on his second's knee, showed first blood, and a cut, as if picked by a chisel, on the upper part of the head. 2. Browne, pleased with himself, smiled, and put his head again behind the bulwark ol' lii hands, and waited for his man. Shelton let into a secret, saw he had no chance unless he could hit the countryman out of time, and made himself out of tiln(" -1,e I se up for a good one. Again he made piay, but Browne stopt. his rush, and croke away actively. Shelton would go in to a rally. Browne was with him, and told him out twice on the head.— Shell on planted a smart facer, but as he delivered his right hand, was COLilitei-ed -,it with a desperate hit Oil the chest near the throat, and floored like an ox at Smithfield. Shouts for Browne, and ten to five begging upon him. 3. Browne held the same guard, looking out and laughing. Shelton impetuous, made strong play left and right, but Browne got his legs back, kept his hands still up and saved himself. Well stopped indeed. Shelton sparred for an opening, let fly and caught his man on the nose. (Bravo, old one.) He was about, to rush in boldly, but was brought to order by Hudson, who prayed him to be steady. Hudson, with his broad frontis- piece streaming under the influence of the heat. pointing to Browne, declared he was as fat as himself, and begged Shelton to let him run fo-oil in the sun. Browne made a show of fighting, j Working his right arOll ill a crescent round his head. Shelton was ready for him, tried to plant bis left hand, and then went in to rally left and i right. Browne gave a free exchange, but both were so eager that they closed without mischief. when Browne throwing his arm round Shelton's body whipped him up like a sack, and threw him terribly on the ground. The shock was heard in every part of the ring, and the sound which issued from Shelton's chest was only to be compared to the last groan ol an expiring beliows in the Cyclops to I on Browne. "it. Browne's streaming nose showed that he hid got his share, but he smiled, as gaily as at start- ing. Shelton,, ever game, went to work at once and brought His man to a rally. Browne, all alive, with Ifim, bored him to the ropes where they closed, and tried the best of in-firrht- ing'. Browne raised the Devil's tattoo on his head, while Shelton played amongst tbe body. Browne's weight was too milch, and Shelton en- deavoured to get away, but Browne caught him between the ropes punished him severely." Shel- ton, nearly 011 the ground, was quite defenceless; Browne lifted his arm, refused to strike, and Jet him drop between them.—Immense applause J 5. "Browne saw he had reduced his man so much that he miht leall a little, <:a reI y went in for work. Shelton was called on to be ready.
