out for a vacation.
It is a time
when wo are not expected to study,
and though we hope to learn mauy
things not found in hooks, before
wo return, we are ill prepared to
discuss a question which our en
thusiasm has sprung upon the club,
and whicli has been as promptly
mot by our able apponeuts, of the
negative, but as is usual in such
eases, ttie weight o f argument must
prevail, and the affirmative is very
hopeful of gethering in the “porsiom-
mons.” (faint applause am m g the
hunters,)
"N ow as hunting” he
continued, “ was among the first
employments of man, (Caleb now
began to tube notes,) it follows that
it was a very necessary and import
ant business.
Man had to hunt in
order that he might oat; and 1 sur
mise most people, even now, one
way and another are engaged in the
same business, though they may
not be wood-rangers.
The oldest
legends are of hunters
Before
there was a pen, or ability to re
cord their deeds, there were hunt
ers,
The world has been full of
hunters from the first creation to
the present time, and from the late
exploits of some members of this
distinguished Club,
I think you
must all agree with me, that the
great race of hunters is not yet ex
tinct,.
(loud and generous ap
plause)
The hunter sir,
goes
forth at dawn!
He is a tireless
man. He worfot at it.
He roams
the woods.
H e has traps set in
sly places. He has a gun, and 1
fear sometimes an empty stomach,
(laughter) but he hunt*.
His traps
may not do their duty, and his gun
may miss fire, but he hunt*.
He
mny be belated and camp in the
woods with
nothing better to
soothe his appetite, than the rec-
collection of a good dinner he has
had some other day, but he hunt*,
and when at last snccess has crown
ed his efforts, what a proud man is
lie! How he revels in tho square
meal he is about to have.
How
loviugly he thinks of the dear ones,
in his cabin, whom he now can
feed and who of us hunters did not
feel an exultant thrill when we
plugged that buck,
whose juicy
steak now fills a long
felt want
(applause by the hunters.)
And
there is another thing Mr. Chair
man.
To the hunter the great
book of nature is an open book.
He is filled with great things ( “and
goes hungry,” put in Caleb, who
was promptly called to order,) and
the grandeur of nature expands—

his calling fits him like a summer

of us began to wonder where he

(laughter)
Now before' we go any
further at sea, I will read the
question, that'¡we may see where
we are at. ‘‘ Resolved that hunting in
a better i port than fishing."
Tlmt
the question we have up to talk
about, Mr. Chairman. It all hiuges
on the word ‘sport,’ and if tho able
leader of tho affirmative said n word
about 'spot-',’ I din’nt hear it, and
what is more sir, nobody else heard
it, because he never got near enough
to the earth to tell us what ‘sport’
is. Now I looked into a dictionary
not two hours ago, and found this
definition put down for tho word:
S poht : diversion; to play; to mak e
merry; uud if there is any of that
sort, of thiug about hunting, I wish
be would tell us where it comes in.
On their first trip out with Uapt
Sol they ‘played’ aud ‘made merry,’
but did'nt get any venisou.
The
next trip, after Captaiu S o l’s scold
ing and orders, they worked at it,
and brought home a deer!
Now I
think that does up Cousin Harry’s
high fallutin, and that thus far, as
he has not got in a single argument
the question is ours.”
(applause
by all the fishing party, aud many
others.)
“ Now Mr. Chairman, what about
the ‘Sport’ of fishing?
D id ’nt

And the next
trip in order to show Billy how sil

wav, did not Caleb Careful from

and do likewise?
(loud laughter
and prolonged applause aud assum

‘sport’ for everybody but poor Billy
and me?
( more laughter aud ap

“Yes,
