C |e C |rjip d e . LANSmGBuiili 1864. ■ 0 1 I » P A P E R . : . No small degree of cnfiosity was exci-! ted a m o n g -^ by the distribuT tion'dfooviiV issue m Thursday last. - The paper went to press Wednesday evening, ,hut p^r^ edition was' off too late to be circulated until the following morning. ,(i, It had been currently runiored in the Street that a hew journal was to be .start ed in the .village, but when, or how, PV by whom, or of what character, no body] could tell. Hence the curiosity, . ' We are prone to.flatter ourselves with the idea.thai the. thing will take. Nu merous ■ subscribers have , already come forward^ and although we have not y e t conime^nCed canvassing, quite a number ■ of advertisers have vdluntarily favored us with their patronage^ while we have received promises of more than we are at present enabled to insert, aiid owing to , th e diffioulty of getting fairly started in business, we have been behind in our is sue but our esta1 ningjoflder. ,, ■ Aniong the advantages o f subscribing for, ^nd adyertising.in pur paper, are the fallowing: 1 . It is published semi-weekly and they will receive 104 numbers per year, 2. Advertisenaents will receive doub le the. number of insertions which they would if we published weekly. • 3. The price is no more than we wouid charge for a weekly. 4. As to the news of two days in the week atleast, it will have all the novelty df 'a daily paper. '• ■' Fdr these and other reasons that we could mention, we think all will b e bene- ■fitted ‘ by giving us their influence and sup- •'pbftUnd*wehave no hesitancy in stating that by the eW of the year they will be ■ im p ly repaid for the small investment re- Dutwe.are assuredthat b y next week sstablishment shall be in perfect run- quired. Cdpies of this paper can b e procured Foxes itnd FoX Hiutiiig. Fox hunting is the naost impassioned,the inost maddening of all the di versions' of the field-' it is a rapturous gratification to which effort o f the pen becomes inade- qutein its attempts at description. It must be seen to be uuderstood ; it must felt to be enjoyed. A fox-hunter is a jumble o f paradoxes. He sets forth clean, though he comes out of a kemlell, and returns home dirty. He cares not for cards, yet he strives to be always with the pack, and delights in a steeple chase though he does not follow! the church. H e is no great dancer.,, though he is fond of casting off twenty couples; and no great Painter, though he draws covers; and seeks for a brush. He is no musician,(and yet is fond, o f five bars. H e despises doctors, yet follows a course of bark. He professes to love his country, hut is perpetually crossing it. He is good temperedjyet so far a Tartar as to prefer a saddle of horse to a saddle of mutton. He is somewhat rough and peevish himself, but insists on' a good breeding in horses and dogs. He cares not for roses, yet doats on good scent.— He follows but one bqginess and yet has many pursuits. He protects poultry and preserves Foxes. He pretends to be knowing, yet a dog leads him by the nose. He is as honest a fellow as need be, yet his neck is oftener in danger than a thief’s. He esteems himself prosper ous, and is always going to the dogs. He delights in the hunters’ stakes, but takes care not to stake his hunter. H e praises discretion, b nt would rather let the cat o ut of the bag than the fox. He does not shine at a human con versazione, but is great among dogs giv ing tongue. To conclude, he rutis as long as he can, and then goes to earth, and his heir is in a t his death. But his heir does not stand in his shoes, for he never wore any thing b ut boots. -A soldier named Allen was shot dead in Beach street Boston, ^Tuesday night' while resisting the guard and attempting to desert ALL SORTS OF ITEMS. —Oataba brandy is mostly made of pemance, whiskey a^d fusil oil. --Ship fever is one-of the attractions o f New York at the present time.
