Rev. DR.. Baird, of the First Cumber
land Presbyterian Church, of Nashville,
takes an unpuritanical and liberal view
OF popular amusements, such as dancing.
card playing and theatergoing. In a
sermon, preached last Sunday, he held
that whatever wrong there might be, lay
not IN the act per Sc, bat in the attend
ing circumstances; that, indeed, some
habits of church members were far more
reprehenSible than the means of enjoy.
ment above named. It was the abuse.
not the mere participation in the latter
that should be condemned from the
pulpit.

Some fifteen miles from the city a fox
chase was gotten up last Saturday after
noon by a lot of sporting men from this
city. With a first.class pack of hounds
the fox was started about shutdown, aud
the chase continued up to one
o'clock at night, when the
hunters and their steeds be.
came tagged out and they returned to
the residence of Mr.. Alley to sleep, but
the blooded dogs never gave up the
chase but followed on the hot trail.
Next morning at eight o'clock, when the
hunters were enjoying an elegant break
fast, MIR. Alley heard his hounds
returning in full cry, and saddling up
their horses the hunters galloped out in
time to see the gallant dogs driving the
fox back to his cover, from which be had
been. absent since shutdown the evening
previous. Another exciting chase took
place, and after a run of Ten miles, the
fox was picked up by the dogs after a
run of fourteen hours, during which they
must have travelled a distance of at least
sixty miles through woods and fields
and across branches aud streams. The
hunters regretted that the fox did not
escape.
