Mew York vs. Wostchester—Nine Battles, $60 Each, and $600 the Odd Fight—Dogged Endurance and Determined Ferocity—- An “Up and Up’ Contest— Now York the Victor. ‘Wednesday night one of the best maina of the Season was decided at Melrose, Westch 4m a pit well Known to the sport munity. ‘Was between Westchester and NeW York, made by Joe Wade, on the part of the former, and Jim Mc- Laughiin for the latter, and the coniracting parties agreed to show fifteen birds each, ten chickens ana five cocks, and fightall that fell in, the weights being for cocks from four to five pounds, and chickens from four pounds two ounces “to five pounds four ounces, The battles were for thirty dollars each a side and $699 the odd fight. Nine coupies fell in, Wade handled fils own birds, and McLaughlin. had the services of Andy McGinley, an enthusiastic manipulator of game chickens, Jakeway, an old sportsman, was welected as judge. The crowd numbered some of the best betting men of the pertid, THE FIGHTING, First Fight.—The amusement began with tho heavy weight cocks—two five pound birds. West chester was the favorite for the first battie'and also for the main, ‘the New York bird was a yel- low “hen feather,” very handsome, but out of condition, having been in the coop ail win- ter at Union Hul. Westchester showel a black redmuf. They set to work in earnest amid the yelling of ® hundred voices clamoring for bets. The biack red got the best of tue frst ouckle, but then, in his anxiety, ran hig own gaits imto one of his lozs ana fell helpless for the instant, That was soon remedicd, aud then tn a clean, ready, determined manner he seat the deatly heels into the neck and head of the “heouery,”” unttt one hotter than the others brained him, and the favorite of New York fell dead, The want of being in proper training told severely On the “hen featti ‘Timer 2:10, Second Fight,—The light weight cocks, erch four pounds.

They took hoid of each other revengetuily, and it was for the first buckies nit ana mit, but the bigek red got bis biows in teliing spots—neck, throat and head repeatediy—unuil he fought the’ spangie down and had beaten all we powder from tim. But New Lorik was game and fuil of haired, and, bad he been in decent condiuon, may have cooked “Black ‘Tnorn,”’ but he wasn’t and didn’t, ag the bieck ot 2 blow, and the spangle died in the pit, ne, 32 vuird Fight.—Fifty to forty on the matn in favor 0° Westchester, and in many instances taken. ‘The crowd now began to be excited and with decided earnestness wWhgered their greeabacks. All the Matches of the cogks bai beea foughé, and now came the chickeds, ‘Ihe heavy weights were shown—two five pounds four ounces. West- chester sent in @ black red and New Yors a biue red with blue hackle—a big “squalker,” as @ promising youth termed him, Ten to eight and double tuat sum on the black. First they foaght vecy shy, dancing about the ring like puppets, until the biue sent a quick body biow Inv the biack which the youngster vindictvely re- turned, and then, with fpafter fly, he for a while cut the blue ip neck and throat. ‘The New YorRer soon became distressed, and, deapite his owner, an old Stager in the pit, standing on a back seat and cursing nis “soul” into the lowest rank of the gamecock’s after estate, be would have no more of it for the momest. He afterwarda rallied aud cut the biack’s throat, avd then the black got fast in tne carpet, aud had the blue been a true fighter he must have Won the battie in that manner. After such per- stency and really good butting and deserving gen- eraiship on the black’s side be deserved the victory, but 10st it by the stupidity of nis handier in icking Lin from tue pit at the wrong me, after having been impounded. New York calmed the fight on the ground of non- observance of the rules, end Judze Jakeway Unhesitaungly gave them the tight. ‘Then came the breeze—shouituz, stamping, bubbling over with Tage—the .pit was ulled with tucse on the wrong d they made the old barn ring tor a few minutes.

Westchester sent in a diack “en feather” and New York 2 browa rea. ‘The brown got itin every part opliis body, and Magid one biow from the black more teiling than the others in his brain work, sent him crazy aud dead before'he was taken up. ‘Time, 16:30, Fifih Fight.—Westchester had now won three out of four figots, and bad the odds of twenty to five on the main. Two four pound twelve ounces. New York produced one of McCape’s Conner sirain, and the betiing became very clamorous, Westches ter seut in a brown red—a June chicken. It was one of the vest battles ever witnessed. Tweuty to sixteen a qe Conner, and ett exciement as they Were scratched, Each met high in the air, and wita fappings like a shaxing vopsall in a sul breeze, caule together, His for mit in neck, throat, body and head, they fougnt duwa and up. Thrice did Conner get his bead pierced, and thrice did tae browa get his peck opened, but Laey were game. Down went the Conner boy, and it looked serious for bim, but only tor a second, as he renewed his desperate fzht- ing, and at Jasi killed the Westchester representa: tive in great siyle; but the dead bird was as game a chicken as ever flapped a wing, Time, 9:15. Sixt Fight.—Two four pound three ounce birds, Both biack reds, and ‘the Westchester a “Kuashan- er.” Ten to eight oa the latter. They were both elective hitiers, aad weat to work todo execution, Kiiashander got @ brain breaker and he went crazy, which advantage ius opponent followed up, and gradually won, kuiing him inch by inch, Time, 16:20. Seventh Fight.—Two four pound eigit ounce birds, Westchester presented a black red and.New York a First avenue wuite pyle. The iormer had tae call in betting. This was another game, determined. fero- cious fight. When the birds came togetuer it was like Lhe suap of a whip, aud vetord “‘breaving time” each was cut in all parts of the body. ‘The pyle was oue Of the Lest ever in @ pit, and tought wita such eiiect that be sickened tue Westchesier aud won a terrific up-hill battle, which only @ game chicken could do, kigith Fignht.—New York now had the call on the fight and on the main.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, WALL STReer, } BaTURDAY, March 12-6 P.M. ‘The course of the markets to-day Lingea upon the effeote of and the popular impresstons concerning the Funding bi!! as passed by the senate, GOLD FIRM. At the ontset, upon the simpié fact of the adoption of such @ measure as a funding bill, the Impulse was to regard gold as dear. Ience a temporary heave Ness characterized eariter dealings, with @ decline to 111%. This feeling gave way to the impression, however, that the bill aa acd and adopted by the Senate will encounter the terrific opposition of the national banks in the lower House and there be defeated, or at least so emasculated as to rail of con- currence when returned to the Senate. Washington’ telegrams report the arrival in the capital of @ numerous delegation of representauves of the national banks, and that one party of them had already “interviewed” the Presi- dent. Again, the last clause in sauctioning tree banking on the basis of @ steady contraction of the currency, while operating against higher gold, was arded by the Gold Room as wholly intolerabic With the Western representatives in Congress, and, therefore, another imfucuce likely to defeat the whole scheme. Under reaction tn the sentiment of dealers in gold the price ran up to 112?;—an ex- treme fuctuation of one per cent.

The weekly statement of the assoctated banks presents unfavorapie features, not so much in the actual loss of resources thts week as in the suggcs- tion that fo the decrease of three-quarters of a mil- lion of legal tenders ts begun the spring outflow of currency to the rural districts, for the April settie- ments and engagements conifected with the forming interest in the approaching summer, the pro- babdility being strongly indicated by this {act that the banks will be heavy losers of their deposits until the middie of May or until tho causes which occasion this demand cease to exist. The total loss in deposits is about three and a quar- ter millions, made ap of the legal tenders referred to, and two and a half miilions of specie. regard to the latter there are problemaucal if not suspicious circumStances. Inasmuch as the gov- ernment disbursed about six mulitons of coin and received only two and a@ half millions for customs during the week the item of specie should show a different result than the one presented.

Even the loss of resources by the banks did not counterbalance the buoyancy produced by the great loss in specie, which was interpreted ag a further source of strength to the gold market.
