He moved his .hounds down during the first week in September, and held his opening day on the nth of the month at Youlston Park. The weather was delightful, and no better place could have been chosen than Sir Edward Chichester's place, from which spectators on foot could see hounds for a long way. A stag had been harboured in Colt plantation ; the tufter's work was soon over, and the stag breaking covert with praiseworthy promptitude, was killed at Appledore after a good run, though it was not very fast. Mr. Sanders, the master of the Devon and Somerset, Mr. Basset, a late master, Mr. Preston White, Sir Augustus Warren, Messrs. Henry and Orlando Chichester, Miss Vera Chichester, Miss Raby, Miss Tomlyn, Lady Chichester, Dr. Harper, Miss Hurst, Col. Walker and Major Raby were among those present. Mr. Orm- rod is very keen on this new phase of sport, and announces he will spare no pains to bring the deer to hand. It was a sports- manlike act to travel so far, and it is to be hoped that by the time he returns home the game may be found to have been worth the candle. The Seventh Hussars Stag- hounds. — We regret to hear that there is some danger of this pack, which for many years has been maintained by the cavalry regi- ment stationed at Norwich, being broken up. The only hope for its continued existence rests on the possibility of local sportsmen taking it over, for with so many cavalry regiments in South Africa, there seems little prospect of there being one during the winter at 298 BAILY S MAGAZINE. [October Norwich in place of the Seventh Hussars now at Aldershot. The East Sassez Puppy Show. — The Hon. T. A. Brassey, who worked so hard towards rais- ing the Sussex Company of the Imperial Yeomanry, was in the field within a few hours of his return from South Africa, and it afforded both Lady Idina Brassey and himself the greatest satisfac- tion to reach England in time for the Puppy Show. Few kennels are more pleasantly situated than those of the East Sussex, a large area of the country hunted over being visible without going beyond Morgan's Paddock, whilst away to the left are the excellent coverts in the neighbourhood of Battle, the Eastbourne limit being to the right, where there is more down than woodland. On the occasion of the recent Puppy Show people flocked from far and near with the dual object of giving the joint master and his wife a hearty home welcome and also of seeing the young entry, which was said to be above the average. Of the former we have nothing to say beyond remarking that the wan- derers must have found their re- ception almost as trying as any of their Generic Primidone experiences in South Africa. Old and young united in the welcome, the heartiness of which was undeniable. Mr. Brassey seemed very much re- lieved when able to get to his hounds, being anxious to see how they had progressed during his absence, and that he was satisfied was proved by what he said at the subsequent luncheon. Charmer, the winning bitch, was a long way the pick, being a big roomy hound, likely to make a fine matron later on, and as the result of Buy Primidone Online a little pleasantry between Wadsley (one of the judges) and Morgan, she was put under the standard and found to be nearer 24 inches than 23^ at the shoulder. She is, indeed, the biggest hound seen in the East Sussex country since Promise's day. She had been walked by Muddle, one of the hunt smiths. The dog hounds were more even in type than the bitches ; Wizard, one of the War- wickshire Talisman's stock, walked by Mr. Foster, of Roberts- bridge, who for twenty years has brought up one of the young entry, being an easy winner, although on the small side. It was good news to learn that the prospects for the coming season are excellent, there being a good supply of foxes. Morgan, who has been ill all the summer, is about again, and with Vokins and Moore, stays on, there being no kennel changes since last sea- son. Coaohing. — Several of the coaches are now off the road, and some sales of the horses have taken place. On the whole, they have, perhaps, done rather better than might have been expected, though the present can scarcely be called a good season. Mr. Buy Primidone Chapman's " Vigilant, " which began the season between London and Ascot, was, according to custom, afterwards run from Eastbourne to Brighton and back, carrying, as a rule, a fair number of passengers. Towards the end of August, however, the guard had the misfortune to break his leg. He was getting up behind, and somehow his leg slipped between the spokes of th^ wheel, with the sad result above men- tioned. He was taken to the Brighton hospital. The"Nimrod," run by Captains Spicer and Hamilton, and Mr. Woodland's ** Comet" have run on alternate days, while Mr. Harvie Jackson's ** Frolic" ran to Worthing and Arundel ; Mr, Nye's " Regence " to Hassocks, where the gardens i9oa] "OUR VAN." 29& of the Downs Hotel are worth seeing. The " Modern Times " worked to Henfield. So Brighton has been well off for coaches, and sometimes they have loaded well. The Cheltenham coach, too, and the vehicle under Mr. Lewis Priest man and Mr. Liddell, have been in favour. There will be some winter coaches running out of London, but their number is as yet uncertain. Coursing.— Commenoement of the Season. — Although the sea- son of coursing nominally com- mences in the month of September when partridge shooting and cub- hunting are in full swing, it cannot be said that the coursing season proper is in anything like high feather until the month of October has well set in and pheasant shooting has commenced. Indeed, the only published fixtures in September were those of Antrim,
