THE PRINCE OF WALES'S HARRIERS. —This pack
met at Mr. Nashe's farm, Upton Lee, near Windsor, on
Friday, when there were upwards of 200 horsemen, who
previous to the throw off partook of Mr. Nashe's old Eng_
lish hospitality. The hounds were led to a stubble field at
the back of the farm ; not finding, crossed the road into a
ploughed field, where puss was soon started, and lost, after
a smart spin, close by Upton. The hounds were taken again
to the same field, found the hare running by the side of the
line towards Langley, crossed and recrossed the line, and
doubled back into the field where she was started, and got
away, after a burst of 15 minutes. The hounds were after-
wards taken into a field in front of Mr. Nashe's residence,
and worked a piece of swedes without finding ; from thence
to a clover field, where they found, but soon lost ; after-
ward found in a piece of turnips, near the Orphan Asylum,
Slough, and lost near Stoke ; found again on Mr. Cantrell's
farm, which gave a smart run -to Mr. Coleman's at Stoke
Park, where they again lost. The day being cold the
scent was bad, which was the cause of so many hares getting
away. In the field we noticed General A. N. Hood, master
of the pack, Colonel Hewart, Captains Garratt, E wart, and
Grovel!, E. B. Foster, G. W. Nuxey, E. &eke, and J. Nash,
