the beagle, or any other hunting hound. It 
is of the colour of other hounds, being red 
and brown. It has long ears, and seldom 
barks, except in hunting, and then will fol- 
low its game through woods, thickets, &«., 
anti never leuvo what it is in pursuit of, for 
any other, till it kills ; which it seldom foils 
to do. It is employed in hunting the hare, 
fox, hart, badger, &c.
