injured. Pharold bolted on the wrong side of the post, and was no

On returning to scale, an objection was made against The Hero, on

An Action was brought in the Exchequer Nisi Prius 
Court, Dublin, on Tuesday last, by Robert English, a farmer 
and forage contractor, against Nicholas Balfe, Esq., of South- 
park, Co. Roscommon, a gentlemen well known on the Irish 
turf, to recover the sum of £111. 4s. 6d, being for “servants’ 
extra expenses, in journeying from Southpark to Athlone 
(plaintiff's residence), deterioration in the value of two mares, 
sent to be covered by defendant’s celebrated stallion The 
Dean, and for overcharges for service." The evidence waa 
of a most conflicting character, the witnesses for the prose- 
cution swearing that the pasture for brood mares was “ not 
fit for a goose to pick at,” while those for the defence as- 
serted that all the mares sent to Mr. Balfe’s breeding esta- 
blishment had returned in better order than when sent. 
The jury fouud for the defendant, on all the issues, with 
costs. 
Tiie Emperor, by Blackfoot ; the Kaffir Queen, own sister 
to tho Tanner ; Prince Patrick, by Brown Molton ; Tippity 
Witchet, by Vcrulam; and Princess Louisa — all the pro- 
perty of Richard W. Reynell, Esq. — are to be sold by auction 
at Dycer's on Thursday next. 
On dit, that Mr. Allan M'Donogh has backed his “ better 
half" in the match against the Knight of Glynn, on Monday 
next, for over £2,000. 
Maoroom (Co. Cork) Races, and Patriotic Fund,— At a 
meeting of the committee of the Macroom Patriotio Fund, on 
the 23rd ult.. the following resolution was adopted : — “That 
having seen the letter signed ‘ W.,’ in last Tuesday’s Cork 
Constitution, relative to tho intended Macroom Races, we 
cordially agree in the admirable suggestions pointed out by 
the writer, and strongly recommend them to the con- 
sideration of the Stewards, and other promoters of these ill- 
timed sports ; and we hope they will, os far as they have the 
power, hand over the whole, or auy part, of the money 
subscribed, to the Macroom Patriotic Fund."

lant style towards High Easter, thence on to Old Park, when 
turning short to the right, went straight to Pleshey, on 
through Waltham Bury Mill, and round to Felsted, over os 
fine a country as ever was crossed. The pack had now been 
going about forty minutes, at a capital pace, without a check. 
The deer then went on to Porter’s Hall, sailing back again 
nearly to Porter’s Hall, and on to Great Bardfield, and pass- 
ing between Finchingfield and Wethersfield on to Stam- 
bourn, whore she was taken safely after a very hard day, 
the run occupying three hours and ten minutes, and the 
distance from point to point by the Ordnance map eighteen 
miles. 
Warwickshire Hunt Clur. — The following notice has 
been issued by this club ; — “ Under the existing circum- 
stances of the war, and from the fact of so many members 
being deeply interested in the fate of our arms in the Crimea, 
it has been considered advisable by the committee that no 
Hunt Ball should take place this winter ; instead of which a 
donation in the name of the club will be presented to the 
Patriotic Fund.” The correspondent who sends us the above 
intimation says : — “ Our Hunt Ball usually costs about £250. 
If all other hunt clubs would do this, wliat a large sum might 
bo collected !" — Times.

of Garrauacole, where tho hounds ate one fox and startc 
another, which took a circuitous route over a stiff country t
