ROYAL. STAG HUNT.

The King's Hounds met on Friday at Langley Broom. The
line of country was as fullows.rrTo Langley Patk, thraugh Black
Park. over Tarr Heath to Hyphen% then to liarefield and Railip,
through the copse to l cr.t, leasing Pinner to the left, and crossing
the grass country to Ilarrow ; then turning to the kit, the de.r
I was roused and a pretty lini-h t"ok place, going at she best pace a
I short time and taking this pliant deer at Harrow-weald Common,
where he would inevitably have been drowned had it not been far
the gallant spirit of Mr. Harcourt and *nether Gentleman. who
dashed into the pond and saveJ him. Some idea may be formed of
the severity of the Chace, when It is stated that the huntsmen say
that five "ticket horses were at the meeting, neither of which
made their appearance at Harrow-Weald, consequently no ticket was
allowed ; great tact and judgment were necessary to do the thing
well. Many riders and horses particularly distinguished them-
selves ; the falls wete numerous. It was a very severe day for the
horses, enteral of which Wee either &edger been killed since.

ANOTHER STAG HUNT. •
SatuidaY, a' stag was lowered from a cart, at that interesting
pleat In British history—Donnington Castle, noted in the civil
wars as a post of consequence, and tamed as having been the rail-
dented the father a English poetry, Gram Chaucer, in 1400.
A vast number of people had assembled, as well to witness the
noble sport as to enjoy the romantic scenery. The presence of such
a coneborse of spectators frightened the noble animal more than the
'A' cry"-of his natural pursuers, and be stretched away " tip wind"
thrtrugh the grove to the village of Speen. when be skirted its
rfries co the groundi of the Rec. G. AVylil, towards Dean-
where, in, a hedge-row, he waited the coming of the pack.
.j
'After 20 minutes law, the bounds were laid on, accompanied
&sir spirited proprietor, Philip Bacon, Esq. and a large field of
sportsmen; the music of the joyous pack put all in motion. except-
ing that which it was most desirable should be Set moving—the
riser,' which continued in ambush tin he was almost within the
jawil of death. Exertion now became absolutely necessary. and
away he flew through the midst of the pack, while the spirited
buntsman and bis whippers in endeavoured to check the impetuo-
sity or the dogs, which was partly accomplished, one bound only
keeping near the heel, of the chase. The stag thus assaulted, went
away at his utmost speed, and soon gained considerably on the
pack, taking the cross-road horn vantage to Newbury. On reach-
ing the top of Grove-road he turned for Riley through the turn-
pike. " Ilacadamizing" the way to di; Fox and Hounds public.
house, full three miles of road work, and them turned directly down
the yard. The hounds were here stopped in' order to give him
time. From the Fox and Houctla he took the direction of High.
wood, from thence t tang the grounds of farmer Klaiber. back
to the lane leading to Cbievely, hem thence doubting to Courage-
common,. and leading the field over many an awkward leap at a
racing pace—no time for "craning"—from Courage he retraced
his steps to Klaiber's farm and to Bailey's farm, running a ring to
Highweod, where it was necessary to give feeds law, as the bunt
had been any thing but slow. On laying the hounds on again,
however, it was found that the deer bad " had enough," and after
about 15 minutes run he wait come up with in Long-Line, and safely
secured; thut ending a delightful day's sport.
TROTTING MATCH. •

A Trotting Match against time took place between Newbury
end Thatchatn, a few days ago. and the reopectabillty of the party
created great interest. J. Satchell, Esq. undertook' for a wager of
£lO, to ride his brown barge two miles in nine minutes, fair fretting,
which he accomplished easily. He was then to drive the fame
horse in his tilbury, the same distance, in.the same'time ; but after
driving one mile in Ste minutes,lie milletup. Mr. Satchel rides
'nearly 16. t. It is considered that if, after winning the Mat half
of the match, be bad immediately started for the second; Invited
of allowing his bone to get chilled, be must have accomplished the
undertaking.
'PEDESTRIANISM.

-- --
A strong,Pedestrian feat was performed on Saturday at Cobham,
Surrey, by a young men named Barclay, in walking nearly forty
miles backwafds. .Ili 'began his performance at ten o'clock, and
finished at half past six, taking about three quarters of an hour for
refreshments. A few days previous he took up one hundred stones,
at a yard distinct, in his mouth, and deposited them at the end of
the line, within fifty minutes. The whole was done without soy
remuneration, except the voluntary contributions of the spectators.
Coates, the pedestrian, undertook on Wednesday and Thursday
last, in the grounds of the Hourglass Tavern, Walworth 1 ommon,
the following tasks : on the first day he walked two milei forward,
one mile backward, ran one mile, and picked up fitly stones, placed
one yard apart, In the short space of fifty-five minutes. On Thurs-
day he performed the novel feat of picking up, with his mouth,
and depositing in p • ba-ket, one hundred rip. placed one yard
apart, In Arty-Ave minutes, thirty-eight seconds, without breaking
one; a task, we believe, never before attempted. The wire& was
Andertalen add completed in the presence of a very numerous and
respectable assemblage.
PUGILISM.
A grand light took place on Wednesday afternoon, in a field at
Southgate, Chichestt r, between a soldier of the loth flusters, and
a fighting cove of the name of Barber, which was acceded lie favour
of the former,
.after twenty-five minutes' hard Asking. in which
Barber stood au, chance, to the no small gratification of the niajo.

Last week a most despetate-battle was ?might in the nefehhosr-'
