WEYMOUTH.

Ma. H. EDWARD., M.P., was prompt at the annual
dinner of the Cohdee Club, teat iiaturday.
Deowitio or A VALOABLS House. On Monday
afternoon last, Mr. John Parsley, hitcher, fa.,
' of King-street, had • narrow serape of being
drowned. He wan going out of hie stable near the
Backwater in his cart, drawn by • rather spirited horse.
As the animal errs restless Mr. Yeareley told the groom
to lead it our. Just as they permed the stable door, the
. hone med. a spring, jumped entirely away from the
groom and tarried the cart and M. Yeareley in it, to
the very edge of the ()nay. Here it saw the water, and
swerved to prevent failing in, but stumbled. Mr.
Yearaley, seeing there was no chance of pulling up,
sprang over the aide of the vehicle on to the road. The
terrified hone fell head forenaoet into the Beefeater,
and the cart turned a somersault over his head. The
groom and hutches man jumped into the water, to try
and save the bore.; but it /risked and plunged so mud%
that it would have required ten more people to extricate
him from tne shafts, and although 200 or 300 were near,
none seemed to like the job. and in a few minutes the
horse was drowned under the ghetto'. Little or no
domage was done to Chemin and harness. Had not Mr.
yeereley escaped as promptly ea be did, he must have
loan his life, as the tart was turned bottom up.
Clticert.—Atbletie Association v. the Portland C.C.
—A match was played on Monday lain, on the grounds
of the Association near the Cemetery, between elevens
of the above clubs. The Portlandera had among them
three of the Mat. K.0.L1., who were crack atiefeters.
The Athletics won the toss, and elected first to defend
the wiekets, sending in Messrs. B. Price and H. Dominy
to the howling of Moors. Moore and l'oeoek ; but the
defence wei no good that the bowling was changed. Mr.
IL Donley was caught after cautiously playing an hoer
for two rum. Mr. C. Doiurily went in and after making
10, played the ball to his wicket. Mr. Meager then
faced Mr. Price, and • long stand was made before the
next wicket fell, Mr. nice being caught after making
20 rent. Mr. Hoait followed and mule anotLer, ten.
One or two were bowled out for single figurcs ; hut Mr.
Hanger suo,rt.led in running up a 140. of I:. the
" leget" of his side. Mr. Aylesbury, although • young
player, played in • very premising form for 26, and
.uaseeded in carrying out his bat. The Portlanders
then went to the wickets to the bowling of Krum.

Hanger and Dooley, anattluvie rhymes were rapidly
dispoea of, after ghleh Kr. Pekoe& skied a ball to
the " on" (Mr. Fucks), end the ',Ater gentleman and
Mr. Doculty, the bowler, both ran to secure it. Mr.
Doeniny came &longed a tremendous pace, and made •
lunge to rekh the ball; but instead of doing so his
heed same into contact with Mr. Fooks's fade, dashing
his lip against his teeth, and eattaing it to be
cut right through. The talai of Mr. DominVi hand
(the left One) *al deeply *elated, and blood spirted
protokoll from the wand, • vein being apparently out.
It is mid !bid a gentleman on the ironed fainted at
the sight. Mr. Doininy very pluckily wished to con.
tinue play ; but his friends persuaded bine to retire,
as Mr. Fooks dii. Both have been attended, and we
bear they are progressing favourably, though they,
vtliecialll Mr. Folks, received • severe aback. The
game proceeded in epite of dna contretemps, and
although Mr. Peacock managed to 'knee 41 by very
dashing play, h did od• gain the victory for his side,
as note of the rtst could stand against the bowling of
the Athletes. The total score of the Portlandord only
reached 79. Subjoioed is the score. from which it will
be ken that the Portland gentlemen gave their op-
ponents no left than fiff alkui—

was most aatisfactor:, to the War Office. Upwards of

daily average number we. 407. If the strength could
only be kept up, he thought no inspecting offioer ctould
say but that the Dors t battalion bad done their dutv,
and with credit to tdenorlves and their county. He
wished particularly to urge upon the volante•ws not to

they threw him out rotirely. He felt the greatest
pride on inspectioo day iu seeing the battalion turn out

great thing was to have ti, ,w or four drills. He wished
