Kinsky's Laternbub, by Frantic, yllb Little 0 North Countryman jumped off with the lead, and carried on the running at a good pace, lollowedby Laternbub, Lancette, and Princess Louisa. After running about a mile and a quarter Laternbub drew up, and on rounding the bend Princess Louisa, who had been lying off, and Lancette began to draw for- ward. On entering the straight North Countryman was still left in command, waited on by Laternbub, Princess Louisa also in close attendance. A few strides within the distance all hands were hard at work; Laternbub showed symptoms of distress, and twenty yards before the chair he crossed with his hind legs, which caused him to fall and break his thigh. The issue was left to the trio; the Cotswold colt having always the best of it won cleverly by a length and a half; Lancette about two lengths from Princess Louisa. Net value of stakes £ 750.

Esterhazy's br m Maid of Kars, by General Williams, 4 yrs, 1051b White 4 Prince Esterhazy's brm Lady of the Lake, by Ted- dington, 5 yrs, 1161b Longstaff 0 Ladv of the Lake cut out the work at a moderate pace, followed by Bivotiac, Maid of Kars, Brahmin, and Comesta in the rear on the extreme left. No great change in positions was noticeable until after having gone about a mile and three quarters, when Maid of Kars pressed on to socond place, the pace still very in- different. Between the half mile post and the last turn the leader's advantage somewhat diminished, and in a few strides further she retired. Comesta here began to draw forward, and joining the others in the straight, a pretty race ensued. Opposite the Stand Brahmin had a trifle the best of it, but stopped the instant Parkins put the mare to his head, and the latter won cleverly by a length and a half ; Bivouac as far off' from second, Maid of Kars well up. The Lady of the Lake was pulled up before reaching the distance.

The latter retired after going half a mile, and soon after Confidante, giving way on the near fore leg, followed suit. Alfold then carried on the running, soon obtained a commanding lead, and, in spite of the gallant effort of Prince Eohan on Snapshot half way up the distance, won very easily by a couple of lengths; Demi Castor a moderate third. Confidante and Almos did not pass the post. Net value of stakes 260 sovs. A PBIZE of 200 ducats ( 100 sovs), given by the Counts Hunyady and Batthyany, added to a Sweepstakes of 10 sovs each, p. p. ; one mile; 5 subs.

She had not proceeded far before she was passed by Comesta and Bivouac, and the pair ran an in- teresting race home, which terminated in a dead heat; the others well up. Second heat: Comesta walked over, and divided the stakes. The NAKO PBIZE of 100 ducats was won by Count S. Batthyany's br h Clandius II., by Smaragd out of Claudine, 1301b ( Owner), ANGLING. SUMMER FISHING. Welcome ye shades! ye bowery thickets hail! Ye lofty pines! ye venerable oaks! Ye ashes wild, resounding o'er the steep ! Delicious is your shelter to the soul As to the hunted deer the sallying spring. Or stream full flowing, that his swelling sides Laves as he floats along the herbaged brink. Thrico happy he who on the sunless side Of a romantic mountain, forest crowned, Beneath the sweet refreshing shade reclines, Or in the gelid caverns, woodbine wrought. And fresh bedewed with ever- spouting streams, Sits coolly calm, while all the world without, Unsatisfied and sick, tosses in noon." Midsummer heat will shortly drive the panting dwellers of our great cities, the fashionist, the professisnal man, and even the plodding hard- working business man, to the welcome shades of the bowery thickets, the cool saline breezes of the coast, or the murmurs of our purling rivers. Already are the pleasure seekers becoming restless ; satiated by the much- loved gaiety of the Lon- don season they long for the green fields and the rippling waters; all- conquering Nature asserts her rights " . . By secret, strong, attractive force, As with a chain indissoiubly bound Her system rolls entire." Boon will our river banks and broad lakes be crowded with tourist anglers, all anxious and expecting to kill fish, which if they do not succeed in accomplishing without much trouble, the majority ofthemcontentthemselvesby killing timemost agreeably. Perhaps there is no season of the year that there are so many anglers, or would- be anglers, whipping, dapping, spinning, " pop- joying," bottom fishing, our tormented waters, as during the midsummer heats ; and there is hardly any season so unpro- ductive or which tries the angler's skill so much. The rivers are in general low and clear, and the " perpendicular rays of the sun" pierce even the deepest, pools, rendering the fish lazy, and, if inclined to feed, most difficult to take. Fortunately for the angling community there has been much rain lately, and the brothers of the rod have been most successful. I do hot remem- ber any season that the reports from the salmon fishers have been so satisfactory; everywhere the same abundance of fish is re- ported. I also hear of salmon of greater size than usual being taken, some over fifty pounds. This great success must be owing to the protection given the fish by the Pishing Act. I do not hear quite so good an account from the trout fishers; in fact, trout are becoming very scarce, save on the preserved waters; and ne wonder that they are, for the host of fair anglers who work the waters is quite sufficient to very considerably diminish the stock, unassisted by the poachers; and the latter class reap an abun- dant harvest when the rivers become low, and the fish collect in the pools. A short time ago I saw a most artful dodge for the de- struction of fish. My readers are aware that it is not legal to use a net in a salmon river the mesh of which is smaller than eight inches. Two men were caught netting the pools of a river, and had killed many bushels of trout of all sizes. As the water was not preserved the men could not be punished, so long as they used the legal net; and when their net was examined, it proved to be the regulation eight- inch mesh; but how could they take trout of not more than a few ounces in weight with an eight- inch mesh? The cunning rogues had fastened a large sheet to the net, and by that means swept every fish, large and small, out of the pools ! It is for- tunate that the art of artificial breeding of fish has been discovered; for such is the demand for fish, both for sport and for the table, that many waters would very soon be barren, and lost as angling rivers, if this means was not at hand to re- stock them. The greatest friend the poacher has is the wandering tourist; the greater part of these Zingari gentry are quite indifferent how the trout or salmon are procured, so that they are well supplied. When passing through any district known to abound with trout they expect trout for every meal; the poor landlord is often " between the horns of a dilemma.'' He musteither buy trout from the poacher, or he must put up with the complaints ef his gormandising guests, who will very soon change their quarters if they are not abundantly supplied with trout. I was once staying at an hotel on the bank of a salmon river, the fishing of which was free to those living at the hotel. The surrounding scenery being very beautiful, many tourists were attracted to the house. I re- collect a scene in the coffee room occurring. Three cockney tou- rists were just sitting down to dinner as I returned from fishing. " What no trout, waiter, " said one. " No, Sir, we could not get any trout to- day, Sir." " Not got any trout, why I have had half a dozen men bothering me all day to buy their trout. Send your master in." In came the poor landlord. " Why can't we have • trout; what's the use of our staying in this beggarly dull hole ! if we can't have trout?" " My keeper failed to get sufficient trout, ' gentlemen, for the house, and there was not any in the market. I am very sorry, but hope to be able to supply you with some to- inorrow." " No trout, why there's a man passing the window this moment wit h lots of trout for sale,'' " Yes sir, but he's a poacher." " What's that to me? I must have trout or salmon, ; So call the man in, and buy his trout directly, or we will leave the house." " And if I do buy that poacher's trout, all my angling guests, who are permanent ledgers and excellent customers, will no doubt leave. I hope, gentlemen, you will not insist on my encouraging the poachers." " Poacher or no poacher, what's that to us, trout we must have." I called the poor landlord out of the room, and having been fortunate enough to kill a fine basket of fish, begged him to accept of them that he might satisfy the selfish fellows, as I thought he deserved support, though it did rather ryle me to see the gluttons feeding on my day's sport. I am sorry to say I have often seen angling tourists buy poached trout to " fill their baskets, so as to make a good show on their return to the house, and thereby avoid the " cliaif" of their brother anglers, and greatly exalt their own " horn." The angler's bill of fare is increasing, and several sorts of fish are coming into season. Grayling are getting into fair condition, though they are nothing like so good as they will be in a month or more. Grayling are often taken much earlier than this, and appear in tolerable order, but when cooked they are tasteless, and in fact not fit for the table. Grayling do not lose their good looks, as do salmon trout and other fish, when breeding; they seldom appear what is termed out ef condition, and they recover their health and plumpness much sooner than many other fish. Pike, perch, and roach had better be spared for a month, or more, when they will be in very superior order. Still many of these fish are taken by anglers at this time. Bottom fishing commences in the Thames on the 1st of June, and this custom is followed on many rivers; but I think it full early, as several of the fish taken when bottom fishing, are, as I have stated, hardly in season. This is a capital month for lake fishing, and it is most fortunate that anglers have the lochs to fall back on, when the summer heat makes river fishing anything but a profitable undertaking, save with the most patient and skilful. Lake fishing with the artificial fly I think does not require so much skill as river fishing. Your tackle also is different. Lake flies ere generally larger and more gaudy than river flies; and as lake trout often run to a very great weight, your rod, line, and gut must be stronger. A boat is almost indispensable when fishing a large loch, and a boat with an unskilful oarsman, or one not accustomed to handle a boat used for angling purposes, is the bane of many a good day's sport. One reason I prefer river fishing to lake is that in a boat on a lake you are very greatly dependent on your boatman fer your sport. This, in a very great degree, cur- tails my pleasure. On a river bank I feel perfectly independent, and know that it successful my success is all my own; not so when lake fishing from a boat, there I feel that I am in the power of my boatman, and all my skill may be frustrated by one muf- fish stroke of the oar. Another vexation is that the skilled boat- men are in general so bigoted and dogmatical that, when once they get you in their boats, they take command ; and, in fact, for the day, you are under orders which, if you do not obey, itis a very great chance if your creel isnot light at eventide. Infact, there isnot that joyous liberty of thought and action, boating in a loch, that one feels on the grassy bank of a merry trout stream, or the rocky borders of a foaming salmon river. For the indolent angler, there is something very luxurious in this lake fishing; you have a comfortable lounge, your rods are baited for you, and fixed on each side— perchance one out at the stern. We will, of course, suppose your " commissariat,'' is of the usual " fixings," and as you are rowed about the rippling lake, the cool breeze is just sufficient to temper the heat of a June sun. Of course you smoke, and now and then tne clay is moistened by the amber malt, or the fragrant claret- cup. Of a sudden, your delicious repose is roughly disturbed by the " music of the reel;" you rush to the rod, and I will suppose you have hooked a ten pounder; if you are a cool hand, and your efforts are backed by your boatman, all goes well; but if your boatman is a muff, and you get excited, t he odds are that the fish runs under the boat, and I have seen a big trout twist the line round an oar; in fact, without your boatman and yourself pull together, your ten pounder will " return to the place from whence he came," but not " from thence to the place of execution.'' I will now give a short list of a few lochs which I have fished— and, there- fore, can recommend— as likely to afford sport. In Scotland, Loch Ness. In this lake there is good salmon and trout fishing; there are also several capital inns on the banks of tfie lake, which is upwards of twenty miles in length, and about a mile and a half in breadth. There are several rivers running into Loch Ness, amongst which are the Oich, the Moriston and Enneric. These rivers abound in salmon and sea trout, also the common trout. There are places on the banks of the lake from which you may take both salmon and trout, but you must be well acquainted with these haunts, or you will never make a very heavy basket. The lake is chiefly fished from boats. I found that a gaudy fly ( for salmon) killed well on Loch Ness; for trout, brown mallard wing, and red brown body, with red hackle for legs; also, mallard wing, as before, with orange body; same wing, with black body and black hackle for legs. These are what are termed ground flies, but there are various others which kill at their proper season, and can be procured at the lake side. I killed good trout on the shallows with the common hares' ear, so well known to all English anglers. By the by, I think the hares' ear, varied in shade and size, will kill trout wherever trout swim. LochAssynt— Thereare very large " Ferox" in this lake, also sea trout. Loch Ericht— There are very fine and heavy trout in this lake: very good and cheap Inns near to the lake. The cele- brated Loch Lomond is a vast sheet of water, and holds as fine fish as any lake in Great Britain; but in so extensive a water it is not very easy to pitch on the spots where sport may be secured. There are plenty of fish; the only difficulty is to catch them. At Loch Fyne you may get very good sea- trout fishing. I have not space to go through the long list of fine lochs which are open to anglers; I may do so in some future letter. Irelaud abounds with lakes, and many of them are " too vi ell known to mention.'" One thing I must beg you to remember in lake fishing— the larger the lake, the more difficult to fish, or, at least, fish successfully. The far- famed Lakes of Killarney are not now remarkable for their angling superiority— they are visited by hosts of tourists- attracted by the magnificent scenery ( and the capital living at the lake- side hotels). These tourists must have fish, and the fair angler stands but a poor chance against the fishers for the market. Cross- lining is the correct style of salmon fishing on these lakes, and the single fair rod fisher will very soon be disgusted, as he will seldom kill a fish, and will have the pleasure of seeing sundry goodly fish taken by the cross- liners. But still there is not a more delightful " put- up" for the tourist angler than the Lakes of Killarney. Piscators beware! There are sy- rens on those shores far more dangerous than those we read cf in ancient times. Loch Corrib is a very fine piece of water: salmon trout, salmon ferox, and enormous pike are taken in this lake; it is one of the best in Ireland for general fishing, and is open water, a great desideratum to a man not par- ticularly fond of being refused leave to fish. Lough Erne ! Oh well do I remember thee!! It was my good fortune to pick out a " big basket day" on Erne. The trout in this lake run rery large. The pike fisher would be in his glory on these waters; there are also fine perch and other fish which bring joy to the heart of the bottom fisher. I often think if some of the poor fellows who tramp miles out of London for the chance of getting a few very diminutive perch or pike could get but one day's sport at the fish in the Irish lakes! Well, I'm not sure if it is not better they did not, for they would never enjoy their popjoying with the same relish as they now do. In North Wales we have Lyn Ogwen. The trout are small, but numerous, a good basket will sometimes average half a pound. There is very capital accommodation near the lake, and boats can be procured. As I have said, I have not space to enumerate the various lakes. I must now come to South Wales. The Tiney pools are the finest lakes for the angler in this district. The trout are quite above the average size of Welsh trout, and they are very numerous. The lakes are difficult to get at if you are not a good walker, but they are quite worth a visit. Langor's pool is full of fine pike and perch. There are boats on the lake, and accommodation may be had within easy reach. There are numbers of small lakes well stocked with trout in many parts of both South and North Wales, which the angling tourist will easily discover when he arrives at any of the numerous fish- ing stations; but a list of these would fill a good- sized volume. The following fiies will be found useful on most lakes, but, as I have often told my readers, it is not possible to describe the correct flies to be used unless I know the water to be fished and the time; the brown mallard wing seems a general favourite for lake trout. I have killed with it " at home and abroad," and the lake angler will do well to procure a good stock of that valuable feather. The mottled feather from the mallard's breast is also a capital wing feather for lake flies. Grouse feathers are excellent; also woodcock, landrail, and starling. A very good lake fly, which has been a faith- ful ally of mine, is made:— Wing, brown mallard's feather; body, dark red brown ; legs, ginger hackle. Another :— Wings, woodcock's feather; body, red brown ; legs, red cock's hackle. Anotker :— Wings, brown mallard ; body, yellow silk ; dark red brown hackle over body. A iiy made with brown mallard for wing, hare's ear body, and blue hackle at shoulder, is also a good killer. At evening a small black gnat, thrown dry on the smoothest part of the margin of the lake, will often bring up some of the elders of the deeps.— Yours, & c, PIN. PEDESTRIANISM.

KNUR AND SPELL.— STAULES AND PEABSON.— Mr J. Woolfoot, Leeds, has received £ 5 a side, w" hich he is to forward to Mr J. Kellett, Low Moor, who is appointed stakeholder and referee for a match at knur and spell between Kirk Stables, the champion player at this game, and Job ( alias Nelly) Pearson, the latter to receive 20 scores in 30 rises, for £ 25 a side; to be played at the Cardigan Arms, Leeds, on Monday, July 20. COWABD AND PEABSON.— The admirers of knur and spell play- ing had a treat of no ordinary kind on Saturday, June 13, in seeing one of the best contested games ever played from begin- ning to end. The match was between J. Coward of Baildon, near Bradford, and Job ( alias Nelly) Pearson of Parsley, near Leeds, for £ 50 a side. As a proof of the interest taken in this match we need only state that special trains were run between Bradford and Leeds for the occasion. There were about 1,200 persons present, who witnessed the game with the greatest intensity, the partisans of each man appearing confident of success, the men having played several times against each other previously with varied success. Their last contest was at the City Grounds, Quarry Gap, near Bradford, on the 18th and 20th of . April last, for £ 25 a side, when Nelly won the match by one score, he having to obtain the extraordinary number of thirteen scores by his last stroke to win, and although 20 to 1 was freely offered against him, without takers, he had the good and extraordinary fortune to accomplish the feat. At the commencement of the present game the betting began at even money, Coward for choice; when they had but had ten rises each, 5 te 4 was freely laid on Coward, who at that period of the game had the lead by five scores, which was the greatest difference between them during the whole of the game. In his thirteenth rise Coward only scored four, which was attributed to his having been compelled to re- move his spell in consequence of having played three knurs out of the bobs. In their third five rises Nelly scored 50, Coward 42, consequently when half the game had been played Nelly was three scores first. The betting then became even. When they had played 25 rises the game was even, each having scored 245. They played three more rises, still no alteratien in the game, the ex- citement continuing to increase. In their next rises Nelly scored a nine, Coward a ten ; Nelly as his finishing stroke scored a ten, Coward ditto, which completed the game, Coward winning by one score. The following shows the scores got by each in his res- pective rises:— PEARSON.

In the absence of pedestrian contests of any note, Mr Hayes, the proprietor, has been busily engaged during the past few weeks in making his excellent grounds even still more attractive to his nu- merous patrons. He has now planned and laid out a small horse- racing course, 525 yards in circumference, railed round, and the circle devoted to the sport having been mown and thoroughly levelled, it is to be opened on the 29th of the present month, when three stakes are to be run for, two of them by ponies, and one by horses of all ages. From the offers of patronage Mr Hayes has already received from many gentlemen connected with the Turf, not only in Manchester, but also from some residents in other towns, it is to be hoped he may meet with that support his exer- tions so well deserve. Since our last notice the following has been decided:— SATURDAY, JUNE 13.— CANINE HANDICAP.— The first heats of this handicap, for which no fewer than 60 dogs had been en- tered, came off this afternoon, and the day being exceedingly favourable there was a fair number of visitors present. The com- petitors had been divided into 20 lots of three each, but the second and third heats were not contested. The prizes were £ 8 10s for the winner, £ 1 for the second, and 10s for the third, the distance being 200 vards. Mr J. Taylor discharged the duties of referee, and Mr Hayes filled the office of starter. Most of the heats were very well contested, and subjoined are the names of the winners:— Bradley's Spring of Ashton, Sykee's Fan of Al- mondbury, Haslam's Dinah of Simister- lane, Wild's Pretty Boy of Oldham, Greenwood's Jane of Oldham, Hemingway's Lady of Dewsbury, Kilgour's Gip of Manchester, Morrison's Bess of Man- chester, Ledgard's Pink of Mirfleld, O'Neil's Bravo of Ashton, Miles's Switch of Hanley, Kelly's Dorah of Mossley, Robinson's Lucy of Dukinfield, Standring's Flower of Rochdale, Davies's Carlo of Hyde, Connor's Nancy of Oldham, Lomax's Fly of Open- shaw, and Butterworth's Lill of Middleton.— On Monday the 18 winners again competed in six heats, and subsequently ran off in pairs, when Gip beat Bess, Dinah beat Switch, and Flower beat Jane.— The final event resulted as follows:— Standring's Flower of Rochdale ( 191b) 28 yards start, 1 ; Haslam's Dinah of Simister- lane ( I8Jlb) 23, 2; and Kilgour's Gip of Manchester ( 19£) 29, 3.

Ackroyd's dog Dark and G. Easby's dog Dart of Batley, for £ 25 a side. The partisans of each dog backed him freely, and a large amount of money was invested upon the event, betting being at even money. The dogs were properly named, for on the pistol being fired they darted off in fine style, and ran together the greatest part of the distance. In fact they were so near at the finish that those at a short distance from the goal did not know which had won. The referee decided that Ackroyd's dog had won by near a yard.

It would have been supposed that the Gorillas might have frightened the Anonymous with their " hideous physiognomies," but such was not the case. The Gorillas went in first, but the destructive bowling of Messrs R. Carnac and Trevor proved too good for them ; the " slows" of the latter " might (?)" have been taken for those of Griffith. The batting of the Anonymous was excellent, but their last wickets were very " nought- y." It is evident from the score of the Gorillas that " monkeys" have not as yet arrived at that stage of civilisation that they can call themselves " men, brothers, and cricketers;" but the match decides the long disputed nt whether they can be forstered in this climate.

This match was played at the pleasant little ground of the Cheshire Club, at Chelford, on the 10th andllth June, when the only addition required in order to make a really enjoyable match was fine weather.

This match was played on the Phoenix Ground, Dublin, on Monday, June 1. The Soldiers played with ten men, as leaden balls at the Curragh had greater attractions than a leathern one to a certain gallant captain. However, having lost the toss, the " Knicks'' set to w. « rk to find the " spots ( which even Euclid can't always find) ;'' which being found and bowled on, the University put ' 66 only on paper, Mr Traill playing well for 18. Kington loquitur—" Mind you don't run me out." Fatal presentiment! instantly realised by short slip. The perpetrator of the enormity saved his life, which would undoubtedly have been sacrificed to the just indignation of the assembled " Knicks,'' by getting a dashing 24. Mat" made 27 in his own fine style, and " Knicks'' Harris and Boycott did their duty as Ireland expected. Mr Wal- ton appeared at the wicket in time to add another " not out" to his cricketing triumphs, having been rudely dragged from his horse by ruthless so- called brothers- in- arms. One word about R. V. D.: even in losing his wicket he preserved that dignity and easy grace which always distinguishes him. Total 105, or 39 on. The " sp ots'' being again found and worked, 24 is the score made by the University in their second innings. " Floreat Nix:'— N. B. The " Knicks'' of Ireland are very cheeky, and think they can beat their greater brethren over the pond. " Knicks" of England, come over and try! but " don't say no, if you'd rather not."

Owing to the Academy having to leave early time would not permit of a solitary innings being played out. The batting of Messrs Mylne and Dunlop, on the part of the Academy, was steady and good; their equal scores of 26 were well got. On the part of the College, considering the wet day, the fielding was all that could be required. Score: EDINBURGH ACADEMY. CRICKET IN BELGIUM. ANGLO- BELGE V BRUSSELS AND CHAMPS ELYSEES UNITED.

WEDGEWOOD AND SONS, ETRURIA, POTTERIES.— This match was played on May 27, on the beautiful ground in Shugborough Park, kindly provided by the Earl of Lichfield. The morning was very fine, and the match proved a most exciting one, besides being a great treat to the representatives of this old firm. Play commenced with the Etruscans handling the willow, to the bowling of Mr Twigg and W. Derry. No stand was made until the inimitable little Tommy joined Hancock, when both displayed their hitting powers until they succumbed to Mr Derry's peculiars. Score, 75. The Shug- borough gentlemen were 19 behind their opponents, Mr W. G. Webb alone making a stand, playing a good innings of 20. The second innings of the Etruscans only reached 56, Hancock again playing well, Mr Derry again destructive, drawing out the Old Tooth without pain, and in spite of the good advice given by Paterfamilias. Shugborough in their second innings had 76 to win, which atone time looked doubtful, but Mr Webb again came to the rescue, and together with Mr Cossar rubbed off the score, the former gentleman carrying out his bat for a very fine innings of 38. Score : Etruria 75 and 56, Shugborough 56 and 76 ( with seven wickets down).
