THE CHASE.

The Macclesfield Hounds had one of the best runs on
Monday se‘unight, that has been experienced for many years.
They threw off (attended by a numerous field of sportsmen)
at Park Brook, within less than a mile of that town, and
instantly came upon the drag of a foe, which they took off
in gallant style to the borders of Gawsworth. where Hornind
was ialliioed. Ile wet off with astonishing swiftness, is
the detection of Ilmsleary, passed through the large woods
there, to Birtles, from thence to the High Lee Woods, and
into Alderley. Herr, being hard pressed by the hounds, he
turned a little to the right, and went through the covers at
Broad Heath and Hare Hill, for Millirem Park, skirting
Ketley Ditch mid High Lee Hill. In Mottram Park he
contrived to mix with a flock of sheep, and ran amongst
them for a considerable distance; this had the effect of
foiling the scent a little, and a momentary check was the
consequence, but the hounds soon recovered.
continued his course over Newton Bride,' Pasted Newton
Hall, sad went along the banks of the Rollin fur a consi-
I derahle distance, in the direction of N ilmslow ; he then
turned to the right, and went close by the back of the public-
' house and cottages at Dean Row. Here it seems he at-
tempted to take refuge in a pig-stye. bet the appearance of
an old woman put him again to flight. He crossed the
1 road, and took down the valley near to Dane Water, as far
as tlandford, then turning to the right, he went through a
part of Woodford, to Gill Bent, and from thence to near
Siddell Houses in &stollen. !tete again he tried to find a
hiding-place about the farm houses, but the hounds were ton
near his brush. He inclined again to the left, and passing
1 through Cheadle Huhn', he went etas, in the house of
Fowden, Esq. and crowed Mickle Brook, out of that
gentleman's grounds, and proceeded up to the village of
1 Cheadle. At the back of the George and Dragon Inn be was
Iheaded by the sporting villagers (who were aroused by the
minim' cry of the hounds), autl he termed directly to the
right. At this time be was nut more than one field before
the hounds, but his excellent game enabled him to run at
. ! least two miles further. He was killed in very fine style, in
Adswood, within one mile of Stockport.
The chsae lasted three hours sod four minutes, and the
distance (buy ran is calculated to be upwards of thirty
miles.
