prime day's sport to a numerous assemblage of Gentlemen. A
real yellow bag fox was turned out, at twelve o'clock, near
Broadfield House —Reptard directed his course across the river
Petterial, and over Little Berrock, through Newbiggin Woods,
past Carlton Hill, towards the river Eden, and through the in-
closures near SVetl eral : he then took the river a little above
Curby Castle, and cast off most of the horsemen, for a choice
few only followed by going over Warwick-bridge, which was
nearly five miles round. He then directed his course through
Curby Woods to the mountains, which he was making as Cast as
he could, and would most probably have succeeded, had he not
been stopped, in the village of Castle Carrick, by a iew cur
dogs, and by them most ignominiously killed, just preceding the
hounds in full chase, with increased numbers, as the Carlisle
harriers had just previously joined them. Of all the sportsmen
that started, only Mr. Liaisons, of Dalston, and a Gentleman
from Wetheral, were iu at the death, out of nearly 40 horsemen.
