SATURDAY'S PAPER BUNT

"Start near Mr, Seaman's house, fi near Trefancha," was the announcement, by the Master; avd doubtless, between th points, the Fox intended to give a mag: ficent run, The paper lay over the creek on the Bubbling Well line, and across the one on the left, doubling back over Black Auster's finish, on to the Big Grave, and thence to Blydenburgh's turn, up to which place little fault could be found, and 2 good gallop eueuéd; but. afterwards the peper, or the country, or the gay party mho accompanied the Fox, wes too much for him, The paper at intervals appeared to have been Ivid in circles, as though thone in charge of it had lost their way finally, at Fahiwah, it got hopelessly mixed up with old scent, and in order to reach home in daylight, the Master decided that it was advisable to go direct to the Island and pick it up there. 'This was done, and tart effected from the Bridge.' The bulk of the hunt, led by the few red-coote that arrived well together at the finish, made the running over the loop. ata rat= tling pace, taking the jumps in g style. Nearing the finish the loaders were directed to a flight of hurdles, and a amall jump beyond, which formed the final obstructions, These were got over, or through, and first between the fags wat Mr. Beaten on Chartreuse, followed by Mr, Walker on Black Velvet, Mr. Wintle on Xtaadn, Mr, Hough on Regulus, and Mr. Head on Holborn, A small sample of the Hunt arrived somewhat in advance of this pasty, but if Saturday's ride i canned ne a win Lunt, Br, Easton will likely be delared the Tels highly unca factory that four Saturdays have now been used with auch poor results, Independent of th fact that the home country is full of desirable to give the villas cause for umbra, same lines. Hongkew ground hard, and would be all te better for being mors surveyed, while the outer Hungjow line is at prosont devoid of paper.
