TILL MOORS.

I The sportsmen, after the first blush of the campaign,
usually relax a little in their efforts, and our notes from
the moors are less lull than last week. The sports have
also in the west been a good deal interfered with by the
rain. Nevertheless, the sportsmen who have been out,
have made fair bags.
At the Glenfeddich shootings his Grace the Duke of
Richmond and the distinguished party who form his
guests have been extremely successful. On Monday, the
14th, Lord Alexander Gordon Lennox and Lord Hill
bagged 911 brace grouse, and 7 hares. On Tuesday the
same two noble lords bad 100 brace grouse and 2 hares ;
and on Wednesday 73 brace and 1 hare. His grace was
out with Mr. Goring on the 16th, when they brought
down 43 brace and 4 hares. On Thursday last the
Prince Guillaume Radziwill of Prussia and his son-were
out with Mr. Goring, and bagged 46 brace grouse and 3
hares. On Friday the two princes were out, and bagged
15 brace ; and the same day Lord Hill and Mr. Goring
bad 54 brace and 6 hares.

The party at Blackwater (who have had an accession
this week in Mr. C. Newdegate, M.P.) have also had
good success. On Monday, the 14th, General Sir E.
Bowater had 304 brace and 4 hares ; and Colonel Jebb
and Mr. Cox, 634 brace and 2 hares. On Tuesday last
the Earl of March and Mr. Cox had 83 brace grouse
and 8 hares ; and Sir E. Bowater and Colonel Jebb,
48 brace and 1 bare. On Wednesday the Earl of March
and Mr. Cox had 31i brace and 1 hare. Sir E.
Bowater, 20 brace ; and Colonel Jebb 26 brace and 1
hare. The Earl of March and Mr. Cox had on Thursday
80 brace grouse and 7 hares, and the same day Col. Jebb
had 26i brace ; Sir E. Bowater and Mr. Newdegate 314
brace and 4 hares. On the 18th the success was—the
Earl of March and Mr. Cox, 61& brace grouse and 2
hares ; and Mr. Newdegate, 27 brace. On SAturday
last the party were only out for a short time, when Sir
E. Bowater and Mr. Newdegate had 9 brace grouse and
1 hare.

We may add that all our reports concur in reporting
the game as plentiful, more so in many instances than
for the last ten or twelve years. The comp'amt is,
however, heneral as to the large packs in which the
birds have already congregated—it being quite common
to see flocks of 50 or 60 in one covey. This circum-
stance is understood to be caused by the frequent rains
—scarcely a day having pa-sed in the hills since the
season opened in which more or less rain has not fallen.

The Greenock Advertiser says :—" The grouse are
plentiful and in good condition on the Greenock Moor,
but on the other moors of the Ardgowan estate they
have suffered so much from diiease that there has been
no shooting over them this season. Mr. Stewart
Nicholson, of Carnock, shot on Greenock Moor on the
12th, 12. brace of grouse; on the 14th, 33 brace ; on the
15th, 23 brace ; and on the 19th, 16i brace. Hares are
pretty numerous, but partridges will be scares."
