GREAT SHOOTING MATCH.
A renewal of the great shooting ntatch between Captain
Tnotuortu., and STRONG. the Keeper of J. A. Tome; Esq. of
Melbourne, Oxon, took place on Thursday ; and from the con-
fidence of the parties, after shooting an equal number of heads
of game on Monday, in Hertfordshire (27 each), the match be..
came very interesting in the sporting world, and the bet was
doubled between Mr. THORN, for his Keeper, and the Captain.
The spot selected to start from on this match was within fotr
miles of Maidenhead Thicket, on the road to Oxford, and each
had his poney, and his adveraary's friend-as an umpire. Captain
Tnoannitt bent his course towards Hare Hatch, on the Read-
ing road, and had good pleasant sport, and from thence on to
Hurst Manor, &c. a distance of about 26 miles. He had 32
shots, and bagged 11 pheasants, 14 partridges, and, five hares.
STRONG directed his course towards Henley Mills, by the late
General CONWAY'S Park, and from thence he crossed the'fbames
to the Oxfordshire hills, and closedphis day's labour there. Ile
bagged nine hares, 17 partridges, and three phe7.sants, in 28
shots, and lost the match by one only. There were some heavy
even bets. Captain Tin.anstsit has long beets considered as one
of the best shot in the corn ti of Items.

CHEAP TRAVELLING!—Such is the spirit of oppo-
sition between- the Proprietors of two rival coaches,
in the neighbourhood of Leeds, that one was lately
advertised to carry passengers to Liverpool at the
following fares :—lnside, what yoli please !—Outside,
ditto ! This seemed to carry the matter as far as it
would go ; but the other party were not to be dis-
couraged, and in a short time issued placards, stating
that their coach would take passengers at the foi-

flowing rates :—lnside, nothing at all, a bottle ofwine
