LIMERICK CLUB.— DERRY CASTLE COURSING 
MEETING. 
The first meeting of this rising club came off on Tuesday 
and Wednesday last, when a good number of southern 
coursers showed how popular this sport has become since 
the establishment of the club. We had ten entries for the 
Cup, with 'Sweepstakes of £2 10s. each ; eight for the Derby, 
£2 5s. each ; and five for the Oaks, £2 5s. each ; which 
were run off as follows : —

Hares were abundant and stout, particularly on the second 
day, when every course was a trial. A rapid sketch of the 
courses may be interesting to your readers on this side of 
the water, so, with your kind permission, I will indulgo 
them. 
The Cup. — Bedlamite had the heels of Australian, who was 
just beginning to make a struggle for victory, when puss 
got to cover ; Herman outpaced and outworked Orthodox, 
although a short course ; Pound walked away from Iris, and 
killed without a turn ; African outpaced Gold Dust, but she 
finished a severe course so game that her colour would have 
gone up if puss had uot found shelter in a shore. — Second 
Ties : Bedlamite led Herman from the slips, and killed with- 
out letting him in ; Pounce was unsighted ; and African 
showed the effects of his gruelling with Gold Dust so plainly 
that his owner wisely drew him. — Third Ties : Fleda never 
gave Bedlamite a chance, in a short sharp course, and Purr’s 
son and daughter divided the stake. 
The Derby.— King Cob broke from the slips, aud got such 
a dressing handed that every one thought his chance out, 
but a bad full put Peel hors de combat, aud luck brought him 
through his first course. Alma ran away from Pacha, who 
never tried to win ; Woodcock had the heels of Hurry 
Hotspur, who put out his chance by killing when lie got iu ; 
Humphrey May beat Galtymore, in a fair trial, with very 
little to spare. — Second Ties : Alma beat King Cob, in an 
unsatisfactory course, but the Judge saw enough to satisfy 
himself; Woodcock beat Humphrey. — After a sharp and 
desperate contest iu the deciding course, which was about 
tlie 'most brilliant of the meeting, Woodcock beat Alma by 
a game finish and a kill of merit. 
The Oaks. — Hair-pin aud Pretty (the winner of a twelve 
dog puppy stake, in Cork, this season) were considered the 
cracks of the respective clubs, and the trial created much 
interest and speculation. Pretty Polly showed most fire and 
speed in the early part of the course, but a straight-backed 
Jack gave her game aud stout opponents sufficient oppor- 
tunity to count her out at the finish of a long course ; Grace 
beat Mountain Sprite very much in the same stylo- — Second 
Ties : Water-hen beat Hair-pin, who was taken up lame with 
a broken toe, aud won the stake, after beating Grace, in 
rather an unsatisfactory course. 
The Leger. — Water-hen beat her brother, Woodcock, very 
easily. 
The decisions of Mr. Owens were promptly given, end 
were entirely satisfactory in every instance. The Slipp er » 
Tom Saunders, showed his usual patience and judgment ; 
his activity enabling him to got his dogs straight under the
