THE SURREY STAG HOUNDS.-EXTRAORDINTARY

RUN.

On several occasions since the establishment of the above
pack, the most splendid runs have been recorded, but that of
Thursday last was considered to be almost unprecedented in
the annals of sporting, both as regards speed and the country
rode over. The meet took place at the Swan, at Peckham,
when the celebrated hind called " The Fairy " was uncarted
in Mr. Crittle's meadow. After taking a quiet survey of the
field, and apparently chosen her line of country, her lady-
ship went away at racing speed across Haves-common away
to Hayesford, then by Bromley, Mason's-hill,. Wedmore,
Chiselhurst, and through Sir Samuel Scott's park. Up to
this time there had been a fifty minutes' run, at a tremen•
dons pace, and the hounds were whipped off, and ten minutes
was given to them to get their wind. The country was most
severe, and a great many of the field got a puzzler. In going
over a gate the horse Mr G. Tollett was riding hit the top
rail, an fell over upon his rider, who was a good deal
bruised, but fortunately escaped without any serious injury.
At the expiration of the period allowed the hounds were laid
on again, and her ladyship, who seemed as fresh as ever, and
quite to enjoy the fun, took them away by Mottingham,
Eltham, Lee, and Woolwich, travelled back to Shooter's-hill,
Welling, and East Wickham, leaving Erith to the left, went
away nearly to Dartford, where she headed back, and was
taken at Mr. Collier's farm at North End, between Dart-
ford and Erith, after a most splendid run of two hours,
the pace being first-rate throughout. " The Fairy " is the
same hind that was taken last year on board a vessel off the
Essex coast, when attempting to cross the river after an
extraorlinary run of three hours.

We understand that Mr. Feargus O'Connor and
Mr. Joshua Hobson have split upon some point of difference,
and that the connexion of the latter with the Northern Star
has, therefore, altogether ceased.—Leeds Mercury.
DEVIZES.—The Duke of Buckingham is reported

A SHORT CUT !—The cutting of a small canal
only a mile and three-quarters in length, through the neck
of the peninsula of Cantyre, in Argyleshire, will diminish the
length of the voyage from Glasgow to the entrance of the
Caledonian Canal and the western islands of Scotland, not
_
fewer than 140 miles.

of the district was held at the Talbot Hotel, Stourbridge, on
Tuesday last, to take into consideration the demands of the
men, when it was determined to accede to the demand, and

Chronicle.

DARING ATTACKS NEAR LIMERICK.—On Sunday
evening, at about half-past six o'clock, eight houses were
attacked in the neighbourhood of Ahane, by fourteen armed
men, some of whom had their faces blackened. They carried
off; we are informed, about 20 stand of arms. Amongst those
which were attacked were the following :—Bunton, in the
neighbourhood of Ahane, Carey, of Newrod, Bradshaw, of
Coolriree, Lynch, a process-server, of Drominboy, Coghlan,
of Ballyvara, near Barringtons' Bridge, Hogan, of Ahane,
and Molonv, of Ballyvara. The last-mentioned after being
placed on his knees twice to be shot, received a blow of a
pistol from one of the party on the head which caused a
fracture ; his arms were also taken. There was also a cut of
a sword made at Molony, which he luckily escaped. The in-
mates of Coghlan's house were forced to lie on their face
while the ruffians were beating him. They swore Coghlan
as to his having arms, when he replied in the negative. A
servant boy of Coghlan's when rendering some assistance
was also violently beaten. We believe the police of this
district were called into this city to do duty in consequence
of the threatened breach of the peace here last week on the
Limerick and Waterford Railway. We have been also in-
formed that the party warned those whom they visited not
to dare pay any rents.—Limerick Reporter.
HER MAJESTY'S BUCK HOUNDS.—Notwithstand-
ing the extremely dense fog which prevailed from an early
hour, the meet, which took place on Friday at Riching's
Park, was attended by a field numbering upwards of three
hundred, amongst whom were the Earl of Rosslyn, Captain
Seymour, and several of the officers of the 2d Life Guards
and the Grenadier Guards stationed at Windsor. The cele-
brated deer, Rory O'More, which. afforded several excellent
runs last season, upon being uncarted near the Crooked
Billet, at Iver, made for Black Park, where it twice crossed
the water, and thence in the direction of the Great Western
Railway, which it crossed near Two-mile Brook, between
Slough and Maidenhead. Rory then made away through '
Mr. Aldridge's farm, at Cippenham, crossing Chalvey-diteh,
to Dorney common, and was taken near Salt-hill, after a
capital run of two hours and a halt. In some places the fog
was so thick that the hounds could not be discerned at a dis-
tance beyond 80 or 100 yards. Several falls and some half-a-
dozen duckings occurred at Chalvey-ditch, a locality well-
known by the sporting gentlemen who hunt with the Queen's
hounds for mishaps of that nature. The pack was whipped
off, and the stag secured, before it had suctained the least
injury.
FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT A PRINTING OFFICE.--
On Saturday, a frightful accident occurred to a lad named
John Morris, aged twelve years, whose parents reside in the
Waterloo-road, Lambeth, which it is supposed will terminate
fatally. It appars that the unfortunate lad was engaged in
the machine• room, belonging to Messrs. Clowes and Co., the
printers of Duke street, Stamford-street, and whilst laying
on the sheets fur some new publication, he turned round to
speak to another boy, when the cog-wheels or band of the
machine caught his head, which was drawn in between some
portion of the wheels, :and before the machinery could be
stopped, he sustained a dreadful lacerated wound of the
scalp, extending from the base of the skull or back part of
the neck to the forehead, which portion of the scalp was
torn from the skull and hanging over his eyes. The poor
fellow was removed in great agony from his frightful posi-
tion and carried to a neighbouring surgeon's,- where it was
deemed advisable to remove him with all speed in a cab to
the accident ward of St, Thomas's Hospital, at which place
he was immediately put under the care of Mr. South, the
house-surgeon, who gave but very faint hopes of his recovery.
