Friday sennight, Lord AN lON'S Fox-hounds met
at Elford, and after drawing the gorse they found in
the osier-bed, the fox went away in fine style, and led
them at score over Broadfields, passing Oakley to
Croxall Hills, Catton Wood, Donkhill Home-
stall Wood, over the Raddle Farm—it was'here where
the dashers got a daub, and scrambling became the
order of the day—still Reynard regardless of
" Such sighing, such selAting, such trotting, such walking,
Such reeling, such halting, of fences such baulking,
Such a smoke in the gar:, such comparing of notes,
Such quizzing each other's daub'd breeches and coats,
Here men walk'd a font, with their horses half kill'd,
There you met with a steed which his rider had spill'd!"
pursued his course over Edingale-field, leaving the
town on the right to Harlastone Mill; turning to the
right he crossed the river to Haselow, and got back
in full view to the osier-bed at Elford, which he again
left, closely pursued over the same track he had be-
fore taken to Croxall Hills, where he went to ground
—after a run of one hour and two minutes at a slap-
ping pace, which refreshed the memories of most
with the old saying of a celebrated Meltonian, " Sir,
what kills is the pace." Two horses were killed in
this run.

Lord Mitres celebrated pack, with a field of,
forty-eight sportsmen, met on Friday morning, when i
they had the finest run of the season, of at least forty
miles three or four horses were left in a dying state,
long before its conclusion, and only eighteen persons
were up at the taking of the stag: amongst whom,
with Lord STANLEY, were Prince ESTERIIAZY, Prince
LICIITENSTFIN, Lord CLANWILLIAM, &C. &C.
Saturday forenoon, the Earl of Hamm:wax left
town to join a distinguished hunting party, at the
Duke of BEAUFORT'S hunting seat, Eythorp Park, in
Oxfordshire.
PIGEON MATCH EXTRAORDINARY!
A Pigeon Match, for a considerable wager, took place, at
Kilpeck, Herefordshire, last week, wherein the parties arrest,
equal, that the umpire found it impossible to decide the stakes !,
The wager was, which should bag the most out of six pigeons
each. The first competitor contrived to miss the half dozen !
and the other, who thought the day his own, shot with equal
skill, the pigeons following their companions ; and the whole 12
escaped without the Ibis of a feather !

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE...-4 new Melo-drame,
called 7he Warlock ofthe Glen, was performed at this
Theatre on Saturday night, with great success. The
following is a brief sketch of the plot :—Clanronald
(CoNnoß), a Scottish Noble, has usurped the do-
mains of his brother, the Laird of Glencairn, and
gives out that he has been killed in battle; but the
suspicion was freely circulated among his tenants,
that he had assassinated him on his return from the
wars. His nephew, Aldelbert (Master BODEN), and
the rightful heir, he keeps closely confined, together
with Adela (Mrs. Pamir), his mother, on the latter
of whom he imposes still closer restraint, under the
plea of insanity. An assemblage of the peasantry
takes place, to celebrate the wedding of Sandie
(Bi.axcuaan), and Marian (Miss BEAUMONT). At
this moment the Countess escapes from confinement,
and rushing into the midst of them, with her son in
her arms, demands protection for their rightful Laird.
She is pursued by Clonronald and his followers, but
after escaping from them by the desperate expedient
of throwing herself from a rock into the sea, the
Countess and her child again fall into his hands, and
the boy is conveyed to a solitary spot near the Abbey
of Glencairn, with orders from Claßronald to murder
him. This place had been previously appointed the
rendezvous between Indrew (FARLEY), a fisherman,
and a mysterious being called The iVarlock of the
Glen (ABBOTT), with the view of communicating a
secret of deep interest to the House of Glencairn.—
The child is -rescued from his murderer, and The
Warlock reveals that he is himself the brother of Clan-
ronald, supposed to have been murdered, and An-
drew recognizes his lawful master. By his knowledge
of a subterraneous passege to the Castle of Glencairn,
The Warlock obtains entrance at the moment Clan.
ronald, supposing the infant murdered, is about to
complete his villainy, by forcing the Countess to a
precipitate marriage. His first impulse is to attempt
to stab his brother, thus unexpectedly discovered, but
is overpowered, and The Warlock regains his rights.
As a Melo-drame, where extravagance is permitted,
this is one of the best of the class. The interest rarely
Rags, and frequently becomes intense. It was sup-
ported with much spitit and animation by all the
performers. The scenery is rich, and the music,
which is chiefly applied to fill up the pauses. of the
dialogue, appropriate to the situations. The Piece
was given out for repetition with great applause.
