The following is from " one told off, a mile from the take :"
On Monday last Sir James Flower's Stag Hounds met at Stow,
when the famous Deepham deer was uncarted at half-past eleven
to a numerous and well-mounted field. He bounded from the cart
in gallant style. The run was most severe, crossing four brooks
much swollen by the late rains, and passing through thirteen
parishes, the distance from point to point eleven miles, the deer
hating run upwards of forty. The huntsman and first whip were
the only persons in at the take. Three minutes more would have
put horses, hounds, and deer hors de combat."

NEW POOR. LAW.—In the year 1833, during har-
vest, there was an average of '25 men employed on the
roads by the parish. It is now with difficulty the Sur-
veyor can obtain hands to break the stones !—Lincoln

HoRAcE WALPOLE.—The purchasers of the in-
teresting correspondence of Walpole with Horace Mann
will do well to order, without delay, the companion Letters
to George Montagu, Esq., and other distinguished persons,
a new edition of which is announced to appear in a few days.
They form a consecutive series for no less than sixty two
years, and by the use of a close and beautiful type are com-
prised in only three octavo volumes. Being arranged ac-
cording to dates, the interest, and connexion of events, is
uninterrupted, and the prefatory Index, in which the most
striking subjects of each letter arc noticed will facilitate the
reader's reference, and render this series doubly valuable in
a historical point of view,

indefatigable exertions, in completing an efficient company.

likewise Signori Catone, Bellini, Torri Ruggiero, and Ron-
coni, established favourites at Turin, Milan, and Naples. An
