COURSING.

TO THE EDITOK. Sib,—l read with surprise a letter by Henry Aden, " whoever he jb," charging the judge at our late coursing meeting with showing favoritism to a friend. Now, I consider the charge utterly false, and Mr Aden no coursing man, and, in fact, no true sport, to publish such a slander against a gentleman who 'has given such general satisfaction: lam also sure Mr Henderson would not care about receiving such honors unless his dog won fairly. I wonder what Mr Aden would have done had he been placed in the same position as Mr Yates, owner of the winning dog, when the dogs wero placed in the slippers hands for the last course, "one dog. you may say, being owned by the slipper." Why, Mr Yates placed his dog in the slipper's bands with every confidence, and, as he afterwards said, the dogs were slipped beautifully. Ido not know Mr Aden, and Ido not want to know so mean-spirited a courser, if he is a coursing man, but somehow I fancy he is one of that class who would like to see counting knocked on the head.—l am, etc., John S, CUrenc*:
