A Hunt. Aycock, with joyous Hart, crew to the dawn, which, with Silvery Green streaks was silhouetting the Furse in the east, heightening the Black som berness around. With the crowing of other Cox the village of De Treville awoke. The chief Officer of the baron's household, the Marshall, was the first one astir. Dressing quickly, lie proceeded Wright away to pull vigorously the Bell Cordes, to wake the whole household, for this was the day for the great hunt. Every Mann arose with the ut most Speed, and soon the Eaves rattled with the clang of the -weapons to be used in the hunt. The Cook, with Moorehead work than usual, did not delay things. All had, with misgivings, left the warm Harth, and now every Hunter was mounted and ready to ride to the place of the shooting. The tall, White horse, as being the best Sad ler, was allotted to the Barron. They took the Weston road, or that leading in the direction of Veinberg. The Coats they were Waring were of many Hlughes; one wore oveRawls, one Legg of which garment was torn, and, on the whole, they were rather a Motley crev. And though they could Reed signs of rain in the sky, they were not disheartenied, for they had hunted in all Weathers. After passing through a great For rest, they came upon an open piece of land, bordered by two rippling Brooks, which ground in the Sum mer before must hav-e been a beau tiful Grecnfield. They kept on till they reached their destination, a lonely Moore, where only a few bushes, almost Barron of leaves, were to b)e seen. But they sawv nothing of their game, and only (dis coveredl sonme animal's burrow. One 01(1 gentleman of the p)arty wvas confident that there wvas a H-erin it, and, with Sligh mov'e mients, lie wenit to the'opening and b)egan to Perrin Koon-Wise. HIe was Nott Able to Seay anything, when, suddenly, the rabbit was out, andl was followed by a short and un * successful Chase. "Great Scott," one of the Fellers exclaimed, "that rab bit Ransoni, elh?" Condemning the escaped cause of the hase to Purr1tionn. they turned their attention to the clear Poole, not very far off. But since it was not the season for fishing, what were they to do? However, for excitement, the Porter proposed a het that he would Wad-e across this fairly deep pond, if a sufficient inducement was raised. This was arranged and he started off, exclaiming, "Here's where I pay the Miller and his Kneece the rent I've Odom a year!" He carried a stout Cain, andl had been careful to start wlhere the Banks were the least distance across, for the wateer was almost freezing. In fact, i.t had been growing colder Daly, and for the past FortKnight .traces of ice had been seen on sev eral ponds. At last lie was across, and began to Stork stiffly ip the farther side, and though lie was greeted by his misgiving betters with the pleasant words: "A fool Robbs nobody of their pleasures, and Gaines none for himself," he had won the bCt. They now start-ed home. On the way, they began to blame their lack of sport on the diRector of the hunt -a Small man with a Parrot-shaped nose. He protested his innocence, and asserted th-eir guilt in his Bass voice, damaging the King's English the while. "I seem to be getting all the blame," lie said, "but Owen to the fact that wlien those Martins fl-ev over, you wouldn't see them, Norwood fire. I'm not responsible for the size of the ganiebag, 1 Sawyer! 'Twasn't me Lide about the game ve'd kill." The accusers were sil-ent. Despite thcir almost empty game bags, and the fact that they were now climbing a Hill that was Steep and Stoney, the party was in good spirits -the majority being determined, on arriviig at the Barron's to get Fuller for the past abstention, or at least enjoy Moise. D. C. H., Jr. "The Unfulfilled Prophesy." Low! the Clemson Tiger growls, Moving to and fro, Brandishing his striped tail, He now scents the foe. CrOuching lov upon the ground, Gleams his glassy eye; From his nose the hot breath swells In his angry cry. Right before his face there rings, Shays, a thrilling note, And now straight the Gamecock comes, With his ruffled throat; Pluming his dark, shining breast, Brandishing his spurs, H-urling back the loosened dlirt, Battle lhe incurs. Tiger, growl you (heel) and long, IHav.e your last threat out, For e'er noon your crest must bowv To dlefeat andl rout; Purple andl Gold stripes must fall, Trailing in the dust, 'Fore the Garnet and the Black, And the Ganmecock's thrust. "Chicken." Cook and his fiddle; Monash bays at the moon. Aycock laughed wvhen he sawv fresh Lidle, And booze got awvay with soph B rohun.
