In New York Patrick Honeyman, a man afflicted with a pugilistic disposition, had a fight, on scientific principles, with Patrick Fanning, an Irishman, a few nights ago. Fanning seemed to have the best of it, and knocked his opponent down several times. During the last round, and while Fanning was upon Honeyman, he remarked "Let me lie on him a little while," but as he was pulled off, a report was raised that the police were coming, and the spectators, as well as the principals in the fight, fled in all directions. Honeyman did not, at the time, complain of serious injury, but in a day or two he began to feel the effects of his encounter, and on Friday last he died from internal injuries. Coroner's jury returned a verdict in accordance with the above facts. Fanning has surrendered himself.
