The yeomanry of the Cotswold Hunt invited Mr. Fretwell
to a dinner, on Tuesday last, at the Naunton Inn. A highly
respectable,corneany assembled on the occasion, and the even-
ing was spent with all the conviviality so characteristic of true

sportsmen.
Sir J. FLOWER'S HOUNDS.—Sir J. Flower's hounds met w
the Round on Wednesday last to hunt a deer, upon which oc-
casion a handsome breakfast wes provided. The field were
met at the Hall by the hospitable Baronet, who was particu-
larly attentive ; but the peculiar elegance of Lady Flower's
attention and kindness was the general remark. A large party
of Ladies had assembled at the Hall to see the deer, which was
turned off in front of the house about twelve. The hounds
went off after twenty minutes in brilliant style, but from the
numerous field were constantly checked, by the deer being
headed. Strange, though true, the deer was taken, after two
hours' run, close to the Hall, when Sir James in the most libe-
ral manner again invited the field to refresh themselves there.
THE BRIGHTON HARRIERS.---Our harriers met on Tuesday,
for the first time since the frost, at Patcham, and found thoir
first hare near Pangdean Holt, whence she went off nearly to
Clayton mill at good speed. A boxed hare was then turned out
near Brappoole Barn, and, delighted at regaining her liberty,
she went Oh to North-heath, leaving Saddlescombe to the left,
thence nearly to the London-road, where, being headed, she
went off towards Newtimber Holt, and turned back over
North-heath once more, and reached nearly to Patcham,
where she crossed the London-road, and took away to Pang-
dean Holt, through which she passed, and turning to the east-
ward, made her way nearly to Patcham, whence she turned
once more to the north, and had nearly reached Standean,
when the dogs, after having chased her above two hours, ran
in upon her and killed her in good style. Although the
diameter of the circle run in that time was but limited, yet the
space she so often went over by various doublings must have
measured very many miles iu extent. The ground was much
better than could have been expected after so severe a frost
and heavy fall of snow, and no accident for one moment marred
the pleasures of the chase.
.The Kilkenny Hounds had a rasping chase last week after a
" raial fox," who " puts up his horses,"' and " knocks" them up
sometimes, in the neighbourhood of Mullinavat. He gave
them a run unchecked of one hundred minutes by Joh'n Power's
gold repeater, and then kissed hands to them as he brushed
over the demesne wall of Besborough. The ground Was
rather splashy for such work, and many a tall fellow cooled his
ardour in a boghole during the hunting of that day. An eye-
witness of the exploits (quorarn pars magna fuit) thus cele-
brates the downfall of Mr. Tom White, who broke down a
bridge to his own share in this remarkable chase :—" One of
the most perilous accidents of the day was that which befel
Mr. T. White ; and more was the pity, for he was going it in
thundering style, on a big bay brute, long before many of his
fellow sportsmen. Mr. White was crossing a small stone
bridge, beneath which ran a stream from three to four feet
deep. He was scarcely on the top of -the bridge when the
centre gave way, and down went Tom' ' horse and all—as if he
had descended through a trap-door. 'Accordinc, to sonic, he
scrambled back througn :the hole which he had made ; but
others affirm that nothing more was seen or heard of him ex-
cept the words ' Oh, my God l' mingling with the water;
underneath, and rising in mournful accents through the wide
gap. in the bridge. I have since understood that an action for
damages is about to be commenced against this worthy gentle-
man, who was making a rapid character for his Bucephalus,
until he met with the unlucky accident above described."
