SELWYN COUNTY CLUB.
Judge, Mr J. Turner; slipper, Mr G. T. Eobertson. The postponed meeting of the Selwya County Coursing Club was held on Mr Brabazon's estate, at Aylesbury, yesterday. The weather was favourable for the eport, but the attendance was very small, and hares exceedingly scarce. The stakes coitsi6ted of an All-aged and a Puppy, the former attracting five entries, and thelatter six; and owing to the scarcity of" game, it was found only just possible to decide these before darkness set in. Mr J. Turner judged, and Mr G. T. Eobertson slipped, both gentlemen acquitting themselves with credit. The running calls fox no particular comment, but Impulse, the winner of the Puppy Stakes, should be noted as one of the smartest youngsters of the season.
