indulged in mow now so largely in some remarks on an accident fortunately not serious which occurred near the doth ward if boys and girls bould engage fh the exercise where there we would uld be no risk of their g getting etting near passing as teams in their sliding I 1 the d danger gr won would d be comparatively little but bat where they slide down a hill and arrossa across a street where

there appears to bo be taken at the tho present time in the prize ring there is scarcely an cas eastern eastorn tern torn paper that we examine that does not I 1 contain the dieg disgusting usting asting details of at at least one I 1 prize fight and not more than ong ono one it seems as though the we spirit of war which found vent during the rebellion on the nield field of battle now seeks gratification in the narrow arena of the prize ring such exhibitions are dreadfully brutal an and d do not speak well of the condition of society where they are patronized it is not surprising pris ing that roughs boughs of every class should find employment and patronage r as 1 in frontier and newly established taw towns but for the leading papers in the east cast to chronicle the particulars of such matches and thereby countenance and encourage 0 them seems sadly inappropriate the frequency of these contests at the present time and the pat patronage go and encouragement they meet with remind one of the days of Ropes romes decadence when gladiatorial exhibitions formed one of the chief amusements of the people the increase of these things throughout our country is a sure si sign agn
