HOUND FOR WELLINGTON.
TO THE EDITOR OV THE NEW ZEALAND TIMES. Sir, —lf any of your readers take an interest in getting up a “pack of bounds” for this city, and wiito me, I will answer them immediately, and arrange to bring all together at a preliminary meeting. I am in too weak health to undertake it all myself, but will give all the support I can to the undertaking. What a glorious day such as this would have been for such a hunt here. It reminds me of the Easter one, with the Royal Staghounds, at home, where could be seen her Gracious Majesty, accompanied by some of her family and the pick of our English aristocracy, mingling with more than ten thousand of her subjects, down to the costermonger with his family in the market cart, as a pleasure trip, all the way from London,—-yet all in the very best of fellowship. ■ Surely we can get as much up here, where every person of every denomination could assist us, as we inflict no pain on any animalonly riding for exercise and health, I am, &a, : Wm. Stuart Monro, M.D. Eedclyffe, Majoribanks-street, Wellington, May 16, 1379.
