SPORTING.—At the Monthly Meeting of the
Achruteometarian Ride Society yesterday, at
Chalk Farm, there was an admirable display of
skill, and the contention for the medal was truly
spirited. Towards the close it was for some time
meek and neck between Messrs. SENIOR and Foe-
mart ; the latter however was the winner ; he put
in thirteen shots out of -eighteen, and three hull's
eyes, at the several distances of lA, 200 and 250
yards, As half the shots were. fired from the
shoulder, the target small, and the bull's eye only
a nine-inch one, this perfortuance may fairly rank
'with the best specimens of hall firing.
