Earl Bruce's Stag Hounds met at Beeches-barn, near
Eveleigh, on Saturday week, when a fine hind was uncarted,
which afforded a splendid day's sport to a field of about 70 ;
amongst whom were (besides the owner) the Marchioness of
Ailesbury, Lord and Lady Ernest Bruce, Count and Countess
of Danneskiold, Lord W. Paulett, Sirs J. Pollen, E. Antro-
bus, and F. H. Bathurst; the Hons. F. Craven, H. Pierre-
point, Wm. Tollemache, &c. The gallant animal first started
in the direction of Ablington village, which she left to the
right, then leaving Mr. Rendle's barn and firs to the left, made
direct for Nine Mile Water, which she crossed, passing over
Beacon-hill, by Parkhouse ; from thence up the hill, through
a plantation ; then by Mr. Compton's, of Cholderton Latins,
through Querley, and bending her course as if for Stockbridge
Race Course, was run into at a barn near Wallop. The dis-
tance was considerably more than 20 miles, and was run in an
hour and 35 minutes, without a single check. A faster or
more brilliant run is seldem witnessed, and must have proved
highly gratifying to the favoured few who were at the finish.
On Monday Mr. Assheton Smith's Hounds met at Charlton
Clumps, when, after having drawn a blank at Marden, a prize
awaited them in the small patch of Gorse intersecting the cir-
cular belt of fir trees on Marden Down, for immediately upon
the pack being thrown in, a fox was viewed away, making for
the strong gorse cover of Conock Bushes, belonging to Mr.
Warriner, and running up wind with the hounds in his wake,
a melody ensued, which would beat
.even Paganini to fiddle-
strings 1 Having attained the bushes, he still kept his head
straight, crossed the Salisbury turnpike-road,, and pointed, as
if for Tilshead Plantations, but soon discovered that running
down wind was playing a losing game, and being too good a
calculator to throw a chance away, he soon headed short back,
and regaining the bushes, shaped his course over Wilsford and
Rushall Downs, through Water Den ; thence traversing all the
steep hills with which those parts of the Downs are intersected,
he touched at Compton, and at length re-invigorated his limbs
by swimming the river at Chisenbury, where, crossing the
water meadows, he again mounted the high lands, and was
finally run into midway between Sidbury Hill and Tidworth
House, after a run of 12 miles ; the scent, though not brilliant,
was still a good hunting scent, the hounds on several occasions
working up to their fox in a really beautiful style, spite of the
many difficulties which intervened. The last two or three
miles (when reynard's minutes were so nearly numbered) the
pace was ne plus ultra ; as a proof of which, when the fox (so
justly earned) was awarded to the hounds, many of them were
incapable of transferring to their stomachs the savoury dainty,
for their jaws declared for " no go."
During the late storm, as Mr. Drake's hounds were return-
ing home through Shelsvvell Park, the horsemen were passing
beneath a large Elm tree, when an arm was suddenly broken
off by the wind. It struck down two of the horses, and one of
them, a valuable horse, ridden by Mr. G. Foster, of the Cross
Keys, Bicester, had its back broken, and was killed on the
spot. Mr. Foster was also much hurt, but providentially not
dangerously. The other horse was much injured, and is, not
expected to live, but the rider, G. Heritage, also happily
escaped without serious injury.

Lady Byron, like her deceased Lord, is extremely
partial to marine excursions ; her Ladyship has often put
to sea in her yacht, in a fresh breeze, or rather moderate
gale of wind, when other vessels were seeking shelter in the
nearest harbour. Her Ladyship has been sojourning for
some days past at Dover, residing in the mansion formerly
occupied by Lady Canterbury and family.

It is expected that thg Countess Brownlow will re-
sume her duties at the Court at Brighton, as one of the
Ladies of her Majesty's Bedchamber, on the Ist of next
month, in consequence of the absence of the Marchioness
of Westmeath in Italy, and the vacancy by the death of
the Countess Howe not being yet filled up in the Queen's
household.

The Frankfort Journal of the Ist inst. gives the following
account of the n:arriage of Otho, King of Greece, with the
Princess Amelia of Oldenburg, which was celebrated on
the 22d ult., in the Palace of Oldenburg :—At six in the
evening the foreign Ambassadors, Ministers, Consuls, and
other foreigners of both sexes who had previously been re-
ceived at Court, the eight classes of Government officers
and their wives, the Clergy, the officers of the garrison,
and the magistrates of the city, began to arrive in succession.
About seven the King, dressed in a magnificent Albanian
uniform, arrived at the palace in a splendid carriage, drawn
by six remarkably fine white horses, preceded by the officers
of the Court of Oldenburg:, and followed by his own suite.
He was introduced by the Grand Chamberlain into the
grand hall of the Palace, where he was received by the
Grand Duke, who conducted him to the Grand Duchess
and his august bride. Afterwards the Princess Amelia
was conducted into the saloon where the ceremony was to
be performed by her father the Grand Duke, and King
Otho followed, led by the Grand Duchess. The altar was
raised under the portrait of King Christian IV. The cere-
mony was then performed, according to the rites of the Protes-
tant Church, by Dr. Boekel, and afterwards according to
those of the Roman Catholic Church, by the Bishop of
Munster. The first ceremony of the rings was announced
by a salvo of 22 guns. The scene was most imposing, and
called to mind the solemnities of the Vatican. After the
ceremony, the august couple received the congratulations of
the Grand Ducal family and the Clergy, and then retired
into the Red Apartment, and afterwards proceeded into
the Yellow apartment, where the whole Court were admit-
ted to pay their offers of congratulation. At ten in the
evening, 400 persons, bearing flags and torches, with a band
of music, came under the windows of the palace, and played
the air of " God save the King," concluding with three
cheers. In the evening of the 23d there was to be a grand
ridotto, for which 600 tickets were distributed. On the
24th there was to be a gratuitous performance at the thea-
tre, and on the 2.5 th a grand ball at Court.

LORD DE ROS.

CORRESPONDENCE RELATIVE TO THE RE.
CENT TRANSACTION AT GRAHAM'S CLUB.
(copy.)

White's, Dec. 2, 1836.

My Lord—The charges of unfair play which have been
long circulated against you did not originate with ourselves,
who were late and reluctant believers in them ; neither,
when convinced of the truth, did we propagate the report,
which we were anxious to suppress—our personal feelings,
and the conviction of the injury that would be inflicted on
society by the exposure of a person of your Lordship's rank
and station prompting us to forbearance.
All that we required, in justice to others, was, that you
should abstain from play, and, at a meeting attended by
Lord Henry Bentinck, Mr. Payne, and Colonel Anson,
who was also reluctantly convinced of the truth of the ac-
cusations, it was agreed that no further measures should
be adopted by us, unless you recommenced play, which you
had discontinued since the occurrence misrepresented in the
Satirist newspaper.
It was only upon learning that you intended returning to
England to meet the charge, and to call to severe account
all who might accuse you, that we considered it our duty
towards ourselves, and those whom we knew to have spoken
the truth, undisguisedly to declare our own sentiments.
Having done this, and knowinc, that you were aware of our
having done so, we considered' ourselves exonerated from
taking further steps. Our motives, however, having been
misinterpreted, our moderation treated as timidity, and our
openly avowed conviction as malevolent whisperings, it be-
comes imperative on us to take immediate measures for the
elucidation of the whole truth. We, therefore, utterly dis-
claiming any identity with the Satirist newspaper, in which
a statement appeared that was totally incorrect, and over
whose defence, under any circumstances, we could have no
controul, now distinctly charge your Lordship with cheating
at cards at Graham's Club and elsewhere, and undertake
to prove our assertions by evidence before a committee of
gentlemen of unblemished honour and reputation.
'To this investigation we now invite your Lordship, and,
in proposing this tribunal as the most fit to pass judgment
on such an affair, we are sanctioned by the opinion of
society at large, and of at least a large portion of your
Lordship's own friends.

GEORGE PAYNE.
B. GREVILLE.

J. CUMMING.
H. BENTINCK.

(Com)
Park-place, Dec. 3, 1836.
Gentlemen,—l received this morning the letter you ad-
dressed to me, announcing the association you have formed
to accuse me of cheating at cards. Your charges lam
ready to meet ; but it is rather too much to expect that I
should submit to your dictation as to the tribunal that is to
adjudicate between us. Your industry in defamation has
given such extreme publicity to the affair, that it is impos-
sible for me now to resort to any investigation of a private
nature, such as you appear disposed to prefer. An appeal
to a court of justice, where evidence is taken upon oath,
and published to the world, is the only proceeding that
could be either satisfactory or effectual as matters now
stand. I shall neither be deterred by your reasonings, nor
intimidated by your numbers, from the course I have been
advised to pursue. That course is, to prosecute the Sati-
rist in such a form as to give all those who have any
charges to make, an opportunity of bringing them forward,
and I hereby invite you all four, formally, whether in
your joint or individual capacity, to avail yourselves of
that occasion. It may not accord with your wishes to
appear before the public in support of the Satirist, but I beg
to remind you that the libel in that paper originated solely
and entirely in the stories which you circulated yourselves
immediately after my departure for the Continent. Till
that period, the 14th of August, not a syllable of accusa-
tion was breathed, and then the storm burst forth, so that
your boasted forbearance seems to have consisted in main-
taining silence till my back was turned. I have nothing
further at present to state than that your charges are
false, and flat I repel them with scorn, indignation, and
defiance.—l am, your obedient servant,

DE ROS.

Messrs. Payne, B. Greville, Cumming, and
Lord H. Bentinek.

Mr. Cumming has, we understand, written another letter
to Lord De Ros, the purport of which is to hint that the
gentlemen whose names are appended to the first cannot elu-
cidate the truth on the Satirist trial, and calling on his Lord-
ship to prosecute one or all of them for defamation. The
answer to this letter we have not yet seen ; and the matter
rests there.—John Bull.

The Trustees of Archbishop Tenison's Library and
Free Grammar School, St. Martin-in-the-Fields, met on
Wednesday to elect a librarian and master, in place of Arch-
deacon Hamilton, resigned, when the Rev. William Eyre,
8.A., of Magdalene-hall, Oxford, was unanimously chosen
out the four candidates, whose testimonials were all of a very
high order. The Trustees anticipate that the institution
will ere long become a very useful and valuable foundation.
The Trustees lately appointed by the Master of the Rolls
(the whole of the late Trustees being dead) are—The Rev.
H. B. Dukinfield, vicar ; Messrs. Hudson and Smith, church-
wardens ; Hon. P. Bouverie, Hon. Sir Edward Cust ; Mr.
Henry Simpson, Mr. Henry Pouncey, Mr. James Haward,
Mr. Robert Taylor, and Mr. Michael Staunton.
Private letters from the capital of Bavaria state that
the reports in the French Papers of the intensity and spread
of the cholera there had been much exaggerated. There
were still many English in the city who did not feel
alarmed enough to leave. The death of one of King Otho's
attendants was immediately occasioned by cholera, but
proximately by some excesses and a previous disease.
It is rumoured that a new street is to be formed,
running eastward from Coventry-street, parallel with the
two National Theatres : also one southward, from Oxford-
street to Charinb--cross ; thereby removing the old buildings
in Whitcomb-street, which are in a falling condition, and a
great nuisance.
