COURSoNG.—Stiowtall—the property of Major
Topham, of Wold Cottage, Yorkthire, and which
was fuppofed to be (taken for every thing) the heft
Greyhound that ever was, won four Clive'. Cups,
and above thirty matches. Snowball does not run
any more.
Major-the brother of Snowball (given by Ma)or
Topham to Colonel Thornton, of Thorny,lle
Royal) is imagined to be the bell running dog
new in England. He beat the famous bitch, Dent,
which was fold for thirty guineas. It has been pro-
poled to run the three Sifter-Dents againfl all Eng-
land, for five hundred guineas, the offer being
confined to three of the fame litter.

The Rev. Mr. Dudley's bitch, Mifs, of Brad-
well Hall, in the county of Ede:, is much fpoken
of. She won the Cup at the Tillingham Mar&
Meeting in March WI.
A new Courting Meeting has lately been Oa-
blithed by Captain Wel'wood, at Kinrofs, in Scot-
land. His black bitch, Splent, and his black and
white dog, Spring, won the two laR Giver Cups,
value fixteen guineas each, and a purfe in addi-
tion. Spring was the dog that was brought two
years ago from Scotland, to run Snowball,,at the
Maltonideeting, and which was beat by Snowball.
Captain Wellwood is raid to be remarkable in the
feeding and training his greyhounds, which he
does not truß to any one but himfelf.

Two new Comfing Meetings, the one in Ayr.
(hire, the other in Sterlinglhire, have been eila.
hlifhed on the plan of Captain Wellwood's at Kin.
rofs ; and fome whelps of the blood of Snowball
have been procured to flan there.
The greateß match now depending is between
a young dog, called Suwarrow, got by Snowball ;
and Mr. Darley's famous bitch, Dent, over Flix.
ton Wolds, the 24. th of November next. A great
match has likewife been made for the fame meet-
, ing, between two favourite greyhound bitches ;
the one the property of Mr. Thomas Hodgfon, of
Stamford-bridge Lodge; and the other, of Major
Topham. Indeed, fuch is the fame of the Flixton
Wolds, for courting, that Mr. Swinfen, the great
Derbythire breeder of greyhounds, has made, as
we underßand, three matches, to be alfortm there
in November next.
