A HUNTING ITEM.

The following racy account OF tox
hunt, in Ireland, taken from the Irish
Times. will be read with interest by
those of cur readers who remember the
time when the sweet, harmonious med
ley of pack of hounds in full cry,
was indeed, music to their ears.
We have some friends in Meeker coun-
ty, fox hunters "to the manner born" to
whom it will be peculiarly interesting
awaking memories of ''long ago"
THE MEATH HOUNDS.
Although during the last wet fortnight
the Meath hounds have. not been idle,
and have enjoyed hunting and swim
ming combined, yet Tuesday being the
first fine day, and the sport exceptional
ly GOOD, deserves to be chroniclcd. Our
first draw was Clonabraney, there were
four or five foxes on foot, while hunting
a cub in the domain, five couple of
hounps slipped away with an old foe,
and though the master did his best to
stop them, they stuck to their game, and
made the best of the way to Longhcrew,
taking the best part of the field with
them. The field had a fine gallop with
out check TO that place, and were then
brought back to meet the remainder OF
the pack, which in the meantime had
run another fox to ground near Thorn
astown. The pack were then taken to
Kilgar, where two or three foxes were
at once on the move, and one at last
broke towards Longhbawn. and at
ter going for about mile, came back
again to the covert Reynard then came
out on the othel side, went through
Lakcfeld, and on at Il clipping pace to
the covert at Crosskeys, where the first
check occurred His line was then
through Galmoy stown, leaving Knock
loft on his left, he went straight tor long
Loughcrew. and was pulled down just as
he reached the Laurel Covert. This
game fox had given forty three minutes
at very superior pace, which account
ed for very levi seeing the kill. The
Master and :M'Bride being among the
select the hounds carried capital head
and it was the general remark that the
Waterford draft fully bore up their high
character.

CLOSE OF H MISSION. AT IL a. m. yes
terday, Solemn Mass was celebrated at St.
Mary's Church, by Rev. Charles K. jenkins,
Of Washington, assisted by Rev. Peter 7. Fitz-
patrick, of the same city, as Deacon, and Rev.
Dennis O'Kane, pastor of the church, as sub
deacon. An eloquent sermon on the privileges
and example of st. Joseph, was preached by
Father Fitzpatrick.
At $50 Vespcrs were sung, a DIVIDED con-
g~regatiou attending, and the pastor officiating,
after which Rev. WIN. L. Clarke, Of Baltimore,
preached the concluding sermon of the Mission,
aud it was a most eloquent discourse, being
chiefly an exhortatiou to perseverance, ID we'll
doing. keeping the inexpreSsible, unlmaginable
joys Of Heaven always before our eyes. Once,
being annoyed by the unbecomlng levlty OF a
young gentleman aud lady, who occupied one
of the front pews, he stopped short, and re-
proved them.
After the sermon, Father Clarke, holding
alott a large cruci6x, gave the Papal Benedic-
ton to the congregation, reading, in Latin, the
authority given him to do so, and explaining
that it was the blessing of the Holy Father
as if given by himself in person and conveyed
as pleDary indulgence to all who we're 10 the
state of grace aud otherwise disposed to receive
1t. The exercises concluded with the Bene.
dlctiou of the Blessed Sacrament.
There has been q large attendance during
the Mission, and many persons have approach.
I'd the Sacramcuts who have not been IN the
habit Of doing so.
Father Clarke goes from here, We learn, to
