A fight came off this morning on the banks of the Potomac, on the Virginia side, about five miles below Alexandris, between Robert White, of Boston, and \Mtehaet Carr, alias English, of New York, for $300 a side. Forty-four rqunds were fought in thirty-six minutes, ‘when White was declared fthe victor by receiving a foul blow from Carr. White broke his collar bone in the frst round, which lost him the use of bis right arm through- eut the fight. ‘THE MEN. Robert White is a native of Boston, Massachusetts, and vespectably conneoted. He is twenty-three years of age, five feet six and a half inches high, and weighs one hun- dred and twenty-six pounds, since the niaking of the match he has taken great pains to get bimself in fighting condition, being determined, on this, his first appearance fm the prize ring, to give bis backers no cause to com- plainef him. Of White’s antecedents’ iittie is known, further than that he was a good soldier during the war, ‘and since the return of peace has been a barkeeper for Sam Collier, in Baltimore, and bag been backed by that @eod fighter for the present match. Collier says that White is a very quict, peaceable young fellow, and acts Wke a gentleman on al! occasions, ‘Michael Carr alias English, isa New Yorker, having @een brought up in the Eighth ward, where he remained until the breaking out of the late rebellion, when he ‘went to the front and became a newsboy in the army of ‘the Potomac. He continued in that occupation until ‘Geuera) Grant gave Lee his coup de grace, when. Carr's ‘@eoupation being gone, he turned his attention to things ‘atic, and was soon matched to fight Sam Collier, the present champion of the light weights, Collier whipped err in thirteen rounds, in twenty-seven minutes, afiér a fiercely contested battle. Altbough defeated in kis first encounter in the ‘magic circle,” Carr was not isoouraged, and longed for another chance to try his muscle and ecience. Horace Bolster was in the same ‘Condition as Carr. He also had been beaten by Collier, end was waiting for an opportunity to redeem himself fm the estimation of his previous backers. A match “was therefore made between these defeated buffers, nd they met in Virginia about a year ago and fought twenty-one rounds, in twenty-three minutes, apd Carr (or English, as he was then called) @ame off victorious Carr is quite a young @an, not much above twenty years of age. He ‘Rad been but a short time in harness; but, being very sedustrious.and anxious to distinguieh himself in the Ting, bed taken great pains to get himself in good @ondition; and he certainly looked in very fine form Aeday, his ekin being clear and bs muscles appearing en bard as brass. His fighting weight is one hundred and thirty pounds, and he stands five feet six inches in Die stock ings.

My suggestions are to nbow how they may be made to lay the foundation fora fundamental reform of the present wretched system of housing the poorer classes, It would have but s very limited effect if these great sums were invested in buildings of a superior Kind, as is usually done with hospitals, schools aod other bevevolent institutions, which to the greater part exact Little or no payment from those who enjoy their benefits. The buildings for this purpose onght to be of such a description that the reat which the poorer clasxos could afiord to pay for convenient lodgings therein would be sufficient to pay a reasonable interest—say nix or seven per cent--on the capital invested, If these lodgings were of a mock euperior kind they would have to be lot ‘at « lower rent than they are worth, to place them within the reach of those who most need ther. Now those who wish to confer a real beuefit on soote- | ty ought to bear in mind that, as a rule, gratutions gifts to people, who ought to be able to help thewsctves, have a demoralizing effect, and that jn reality the mom- bers of (he working classes ask no euch giita But they have a night to demand @ reasonable share of comforts an far as they can pay for, combined with such domestic | arrangements as decency and morality exsot | The great object would therefore be, first, te necertain | what amount of rent could be ou the average exacted from each family among (he working clases, and then to make an effort to farnieh the greatest puanible amount of wpace and genuine comfort which (bat rewt will pay | for at the rate of six or per cent on the capital in vested.
