20 Hark Away. 



three days a-week, -ander the mauagement of Mr. 

 Fred. Sedgwick, who, I believe, worked it during 

 last season. 



The Orleans Club coach works between the Town 

 House in King Street and Twickenham every day, 

 and is driven by Captain Wombwell, who is in part- 

 nership with Sir John Astley and Mr. Boulter. It is 

 naturally the most pleasurable mode of communica- 

 tion between the London and country establishments 

 of this fashionable Club. 



On June 1, Captain Carleton Blyth will start the 

 Blenheim, travelling three days a-week to Oxford, 

 retm-ning on alternate days, the route being via 

 Brentford, Hounslow, Longford, Colnbrook, Slough, 

 and Salt Hill, halting at Skindle's well-known hotel, 

 at Maidenhead, for luncheon, and then proceeding by 

 way of Henley-on-Thames, Nettlebed, Gangsdown- 

 hill, Benson, Stilhngford, and Iffley, arriving at the 

 Clarendon Hotel, Oxford, at 6.30, thus performing 

 the journey in six hours and a-half, including stop- 

 pages, through a magnificent line of country, going 

 along the valley of the Thames, and passing en route 

 through the counties of Middlesex, Bucks, Berks, and 

 Oxon. Captain Blyth has secured an excellent lot of 

 horses, and this caoch will be worked in first-rate 

 style^ and will doubtless be one of the most popular 

 on the road, during the boating season more especi- 

 ally. 



Thus far I have told of the prospects of the stage 

 coaches starting from the Metropolis ; but the move- 

 ment is not confined to London, as Colonel A. P. 

 Somerset will again run the "Hirondelle" from 

 Enfield to Hitchin and back three days every week.
