THE CHASE: ITS STATE AND PROSPECTS, AS INDICATED IN THE TOXOPHILITE SONG (FROM HANSARD'S BOOK OF Archery). TO READERS AND CORRESPONDENTS. THE Editor begs to acknowledge the receipt of the "American Turf Register" from its commencement, and a series of engravings of celebrated American horses, published with the New York "Spirit of the Times," for which he is much obliged to Mr. William T. Porter. The Article on the Red Deer of Exmoor, was too late for the present Number; it shall certainly appear in our next. We are sensible of the writer's courtesy, and trust that we may continue to be honoured by a correspondence so propitiously begun. "Sporting in the Australian Colonies" is not suited to our pages in its present shape: it is left for the Author at the office. "Toho" is very good, and very considerate: we shall, at all times, be happy to hear from him in his own style: anything from him more particularly local facts—will always be most acceptable. Þπos is a capital fellow : let not our present want of room rob us of his promised offerings. Who is "A Turfite?" an odd fish, we think: verb. sap. "Gaffer" will find a few professional liberties taken with his article. On the 15th inst. a parcel will await his order at the Publisher's. Let his future treatment of the subject mingle local anecdote with its practical information. To combine "utile dulci" is an essential in periodical literature. A mass of Correspondence lies over from want of room, as relates to a portion, and from want of time to look into it, as relates to the remainder. Proof Impressions of all the Plates that have appeared in this Work, are on sale at 2s. each; or, beautifully coloured, 2s. 6d. Vols. I. II. and III. of THE SPORTING REVIEW, bound in fancy cloth boards, lettered, may now be had at all Booksellers, price 16s. 6d. each. |
