W.ORR- CO, 
AUTUMN SHOOTING. 
Wirz the latter days of October or the beginning of No- 
vember, quail-shooting, as it is termed every where to the 
eastward, and partridge-shooting every where to the west- 
ward, of the Delaware, commences. 
Woodcock are still abundant on the proper grounds, 
particularly among hanging woods of second growth, of 
chestnut interspersed with evergreens, on the hill-sides, 
adjacent to water, and in low level maple swamps and 
alder thickets. 
On different ground, but still on the same ranges, on 
the higher slopes, where there is a mixture of crags and 
cedar brakes, with deciduous trees and cultivated buck- 
wheat fields and corn stubbles, the ruffed grouse is fre- 
quently to be found.
