SPORTING MISCELLANEOUS. 
We beg to remind our readers that the Eglinton Stake 
(£100 added) and a now £100 Plato for all ages, at the en- 
suing Doncaster Autumn Meeting, close next Tuesday. 
They are both 10 sovs h f, and the former is for twos and 
threes, and the latter for threes and upwards. Bird on the 
Wing has gone to the Cure. A great trotting meeting is to 
come off at York, on Juno 27th. There is a Sweepstakes 
of 10 sovs each, h ft with 40 added, open to all but American 
bred horses ; and a Sweepstakes of 3 sovs each, with 20 
added for Yorkshire-bred horses that have never started in 
any race. Wells now lives at Sutton Coldfield Warwick- 
shire. The sale of winners at Bath brought £210 to the 
fund. The Chipping Sodbury Races are postponed to Friday 
June 16th. 
Ramsgate Races are fixed for the 10th and lltli of 
July. There are eight races to which £205 are added. 
Lord Hill, King David, and Blame are for sale. 
Curious Fact. — Last year Mr. Graham of Cupellie 
reclaimed a field of 65 acres, bearing a most luxuriant crop 
of heather, and which afforded shelter to a large number of 
grouse. The land was thorough-drained and deep-ploughed, 
and this spring sown with oats, now showing a splendid 
braird. Singular to say, however, the grouse have built 
their nests this season, as usual, in the ploughed field where 
hitherto the heather had afforded them shelter, and they 
may be seen in numbers hatching their eggs in the furrows 
among the young corn ! So curious a departure from the 
ordinary habits of these birds can only bo attributed to the 
organ of adhesiveness being largely developed . — Dumfries 
Courier. 
The Grouse.— The Duke of Rutland’s gamekeeper has 
gathered 300 grouse eggs in Lord Panmure’s forest at Glonselc, 
and taken them to London to he hatched along with ban- 
tams. How the brood will turn out time only can show ; 
hut the experiment is rather a bold one, and deserves success. 
The tape- worm is said to he making great havoc with the 
broods in Glensek and Forfarshire . — Scotch Paper . 
Rodosto, near Constantinople. — Both foxes and 
hares are plentiful, so next winter may see good sport. On 
the lake are numbers of wild swans, and in the season both 
suipe and woodcock are to be found in the neighbourhood, 
60 a fowling piece should form part of the equipment of 
every officer coming here. Lord Raglan has made known 
quietly, and without any offensive order, that lie wishes the 
army to shave; so that point is settled, and that without 
publicly calling what is the almost universal wish of both 
officers and men “ a filthy habit,” as another general did 
not long ago. 
Iiupetueuse, the mare who lost “the 51 miles in three 
hours and a quarter” match at Chantilly on Monday fortnight 
is of English blood, her sire being Invincible , and her dam 
Melanie. She is seven years old, and bears a high name in 
the annals of the turf. 
A remarkable instance of the daring of a game cock oc- 
curred at Melton Mowbray on Tuesday week to a young 
man named Hill. He was endeavouring to catch a hen, 
when the cock flew at him from a wall, striking one of his 
spurs Into his neck just behind tho right ear, while with 
the other spur ho cut his left eyebrow nearly off. FI ill was 
knocked down, and from the great quantity ofblood which 
flowed, it was at first apprehended that the jugular vein had 
been cut. 
An adjourned meeting of the members and supporters of 
the Tipperary Hunt will be held at Acarn’s hotel, Clonmel, 
on Wednesday the 7th of Juno, for the purpose of making 
arrangements for hunting the country next season. 
We learn, from the local papers, that the Galway races, 
which are to come off the week after next assizes, will bo on 
a scale of elegance hitherto unknown at Kiltolla. The people 
of Galway intend subscribing liberally, aud every necessary 
arrangement is being made to render Kiltolla course worthy 
of the celebrity it formerly sustained during nine successive 
seasons. 
Mr. Colgan’s (Mr. Meara’s) ch. m. Kate, winner of the 
Mullingar Handicap, on the 10th inst., and of the Warblers, 
at the Howth and Baldoyle meeting last week, was killed 
whilst running for tho Tipperary Stakes on Monday last. 
Her owner lately refused a handsome figure for her. 
We are gratified to be enabled to state that the Tuam 
races will take place during tho present season, on the 
splendid course of Gurranes, in a style unsurpassed by 
thoso of any previous year. We understand that a meeting 
of the inhabitants will be held on an early day to enter into 
the usual preliminary arrangements ; and it is intended 
that the races will come off during the month of J uly, or at 
farthest, in the first week of August, as hitherto they have 
been deferred to too lute u period of the year. 
A meeting of tho subscribers to tho fund of tho Bellews- 
town races was held in Drogheda, on Thursday last, to in- 
spect tho treasurer’s accounts, and devise means for carrying 
them on for tho ensuing season. 
Knockbarron Races, Loughrea, come off the first week in 
September, under the patronage of Burton Pcrsse and John 
Blakeney, Esqrs. 
At the recent Howth and Baldoyle Races, tho condi- 
tions of one of the stakes provided that all jocks should 
ride smoking cigars, and tho winner of each heat return to 
the enclosure with his cigar alight, or be disqualified. Fif- 
teen started, and all but one contrived to keep their “weeds” 
in full glow during the contest. 
Lord Eglinton has given the following names to his foals 
of 1854 : — Zmjier Zee, by Orlando, out of Burbelle. Festival, 
by Surplice, out of Gala, 
Father Thames is for sale along with Strood (half-brother 
to King Tom), and nine other two-year olds of Lord 
Exeter’s. Defiance is also for sale, and priced at 1000 g 8 . 
Harlock warns trainers against employing his runaway boy 
George Hammond. 
Limerick Races and Steeplechases are announced to come 
oft' on Newcastle Course, on the 24th and 25th of October 
under the stewardship of Lord Guillamore, S. A. Dickson’ 
Edward Greene, H. Jackson, and W. H. Barrington, Esqrs! 
Three flat races on tho first day, and two steeplechases and 
a flat race on tho second day. form tho bill of faro. 
Tho Goodwood Cup, the Goodwood Stakes, the Burghley 
Stakes, and tho Ascot Vaso all close next Tuesday. 
We beg to direct to tho attention of owners and trainers 
to the programme of the Harrogate Meeting iu our adver- 
tising columns.

THE I1EYTHROP HUNT. 
The Crafty Earth Stoppers held their feast at Mr. Shep- 
pard’s, Sporting and Commercial Establishment, the Bell 
Hotel, Charlbury, on Friday, the 26th day of May, at 2 
o’clock. 
Hills, the venerable Huntsman President (for a brief 
duration), supported by two veteran keepers, his nephew, 
George Hills, vice-president. The dining room for the oc- 
casion was tastefully aud handsomely decorated with ever- 
greens and various trophies of the chase. Amongst the 
numerous company, we noticed the head keepers and 
assistants from the following preserves: — Blenheim, Eusham- 
hall, Wilcott, Stanton, Harcourt, Coggswood, Bradwell- 
grove, Wychwood- forest, Cornbury-park, Ditchloy, Deane, 
Sarsgrove, Great Tew, Heytlirop, Upper- Norton, Sandford, 
Glympton, Barton-on-tlie-Heath,Pudlicott, Stralfield Brake, 
Rousham, Kidding ton, Tarr-wood, Eushatn, Salfourd, 
Sliipton-under-VYychwood, Tackley-park, See. See. 
the dinner 
Consisted of the most substantial fare, which is usual, upon 
'inch occasions ; and after the cloth hud been removed, and 
sundry bowls of punch introduced, the chairman rose and 
claimed attention to the following toasts Her Gracious 
Majesty the Queen, His Royal Highness Prince Albert, and 
the Royal family, the Army and Navy, and may they ever 
be able to put down aggression. The Right Honourable 
Lord Reddesdalc. The nobility and clergy of the county. 
Mr. Hall, and the other subscribers to the Heythrop hunt. 
The keepers of Wychwood Forest and all others in the 
district. The yeomen of England. Success to fox hunting, 
and may it long continue. Continued health to the hunts- 
man Hills, and a long and happy life to him (proposed by 
the head keeper Morris, of High-lodge, Wychwood Forest). 
The whips and all others connected with the establishment, 
not forgetting “ Old Cross ” of Lidstone. Mr. and Mrs 
Sheppard, the former as a staunch preserver of Foxes tor 
above 20 years, and the latter, for the excellent ^ dinner. 
See., provided. Tho company was very “jolly ” under 
the presidency of Mr. Alderton, tho senior keeper, the 
huntsman having very properly retired at an early hour for 
reasons which need no comment. The report all aroun us 
for the ensuing season, is flattering iu the extreme, as cud 
aro plentiful in th e various coverts. 
Melancholy Accident at Lymington, Hants- 
On Sunday a smart little cutter called the 
Lymington quay for Yarmouth, with the owner (WHHB"» 
Murray, a licensed pilot) and a boatman, and 15 passengers, 
some of whom had beeu drinking rather freely, though no 
quarrelsome. It appears that after they had gone a suo 
way down the liver one of the pasbengers stumbled, 
several attempting to make way for him, careened tho uo » 
which made some of the others fall to leeward, and thus 
boat capsized. Of the 15 passengers, 8 only were taken I 
alive, 3 were taken up dead, aud the rest (4) are missi g 
One man saved himself by clinging to the post at the J 
(near which the accident happened), another by 8W,m “? Jj! 
with an oar, 2 or 3 by holding on to the boat, and 0 ' 
kept themselves afloat by swimming till assistance * 
Both tho watermen escaped. On the Tuesday an m i 
was held on the bodies of 3 of tlie unfortunate inm v,u,l “ 
whose names were, Elizabeth Smith, George Ohvei, 
Thomas Frazer, aud, after a long investigation, lliel Aj 
pearing lo be no one to blame lor the occurrence, a ' 
was returned of “accidental death” in each CttS ®’ p fltt 
names of the missing peisons are Jane Potior, James 
Henry Goston, and Alfred Holmes.
