POOLE.
RECHABITES' DEMONSTRATION.
But for • demonstration on Whit-Monday in connec-
tion with the local tents of the Salford Unity of the
Independent Order of Rechabites, this town would have
been in keeping with the weather—exceedingly dull.
The proceedings commenced at' ten o'clock in the morn-
ing, when Hie members of the "Bud of Hope' tent and
" Pride of Poole" juvenile tent, together with the visiting
brethren of the order assembled, attired in white satin
sashes, in • field near Beech-hurst House, lent by Mr. T.
P. Soul. A procession was formed, consisting of about
:10 juveniles and 60 adults, and the streets paraded, to the
strains of the Poole Town Brass Band and the Rifle
Corps Fife and Drum Band. The dispensation of the
tent, and tarious emblems, were carried by lads, and
there were also two capital banners and several flags.
The banner of the adult tent wee • new one, and wee •
very fair specimen of local talent, having been painted
for the occasion by Mr. Straden, of Longfieet On one
aide appeared a well-executed scene of a ship in distress,
with a lighthouse near, and the lifeboat putting off from
the shore to the rescue. Over this' was the motto, "To
guide, to rescue, and to save," and ender the words,
"'Truth, fortitude, justice." On the reverse side of the
banner were.painted the emblems of the order and the
inscription, ' Independent Order of Rechabitea Bud of
Hope Tent, No. 160, Poole." At 11 o'clock there wee
Divine service at St. Paul's Church, which was comfort-
ably filled by the members and their friends. The Vicar,
the Rev. F. Pocock, selected for his teat Psalm ckxxiii,
1, "Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren
to dwell together in unity." The discourse was an
, especially appropriate one, having distinct references to
the ancient order of Rechabitee, and the rev, gentleman
urged upon his congregation the evils of drunkenness,
and advised them not only to connect themselves with
the Salford Unity, which was a very good thing, but to
see that they belonged to a higher unity, that of heaven'
and of Christ. After service there were more perambu-
lations of the streets, and the field was then again resorted
to, whore refreshinenta had been provided in • large
marquee, at a moderate charge, to all-comers. During the
afternoon addresses were delivered by members of the
order, under the presidency of Mr. C. Curtis. A public
tea was provided in the marquee. In the evening the
weather cleared, and the number of persons present was
Ipretty favourable. The bands played selections frequently,
various amusement., wore exteniporisod, and the time
passed pleasantly away till half-past nine, when the
I ground was cleared.

Hall at ten o'clock, and went thence in procession,
(headed by the band of the 16th Somerset Rifle corps, and
the Shaf teabut7 Town Band), to St James's Church, where
Divine service was celebrated,. The prayers were read by
Use Rev. J. Veysey; the first lesson by the Rev.H. B. Miles
and second by the Rev. P. H. Dyke. An admirable ser-
mon was preached by the Rev. (I. 1.. Harkneu, rector of the
parish, from Proverbs 10th chap., and part of the sth
verse, " He that gathereth in summer is a wise son,"
which by the way, is the motto the Society.
After Divine service, the honorary and benefit members
of the Branch, to the number of inure than 200, repaired
to the Market Reuse, where they found an excellent
dinner awaiting them. It was supplied by Mr. Bolt, of
the Grosvenor Arnie Hotel. The walla were very prettily
decorated, and the meeting was altogether a great success.
Sir Edward Baker occupied the chair, and among those
present were Mr. V. Fans Benett.Stanford, Ml'., Mr.
D. Seymour, Mr. Kersley (Mayor of the Borough). In
the course of the post prandial proceedings, Mr. H. 1).
Seymour proposed the health of their worthy Chairman.
the President of the Society. (Applauee).—'rheCluittuan
thanked them most heartily for the manner in which
they had welcomed him on his return to Dorsetahire.
Mr. T. B. Chitty asked them, therefore, to drink with all
cordiality as a neighbour and a friend, and not as a
politician, the health of Mr. Ilienett-Stanford, their
representative in the House of Commons. —Mr. Benett.
Stanford, M.P., in replying said, as to the Dorset County
Friendly Society, he heartily congratulated them
upon its success. There was in a Society of that
nature something more than sitting around the social
board. The principal of self-reliance, self-respect, and
personal independence was involved. (Hear). It showed
that the members of it were endeavouring to provide for
themselves. He believed that Societies of that kind had
done more for the amelioration of the condition of the
working classes, than anythiag else that had been
attempted iii England. (Hear, hear). By joining such a
Society they were carrying out the great Christian
principle of " Help one another." (Hear). He was in
favour of the suggestion of Mr. Harkness that the
Wiltshire and Donietshire Societies should be turned into
one. (Hear, hear). That, he believed, was the feeling of
the late Mr. Setheron Estcourt, and also of his father, the
late Arthur Fane, who were two of the originators and
supporters of the Wilts Friendly Society. (Hear, hear).
He didn't mean to say that either Society was likely to
fall, but upon the principle that union WAS strength, he
should like to see the two united. (Hear, Hear). It would
make the whole body stronger, and the better able to bear
any burdens that might be put upon it. (hear, hear). In
conclusion, he begged to contragulate them upon the
return of their old friend Sir Edward Baker, whose
presence had for some years been greatly missed from the
county. (Applause). There was one other thing he wished
to say. Ile thought they would do well to adopt one of the
rules of the Wiltshire Society, which admitted of the
presence at dinner of the wives, daughters, and sweet-
hearts of the members. (Hear, hear). Ile thought that
was an example that might well be followed. (Applause).
The company afterwards adjourned to " C.s.krate
Field," kindly lent by Mr. Bolt, where a variety of sports
were engaged in, including the following;
Posy RACE in heats, for ponies not exceeding 1:1 hands.

Mr. Friend's Digby Fowler won easily in the first heat,
but in second he was run very close by Mr. Limes'
Hermit. After the race Mr. iAWIS objected to Mr.
Friend's horse on the ground that is was more than 1-11
hands high, and when measured this was found to be the
case. It was accordingly disqualified. The dispute took
so much time that some of the other sports did not take
place.

BRIDPORT.
ALLINGTON FRIENDLY SOCIETY.

The annual meeting of this society took place on Whit-
Monday. The members met at the King's Anus Inn at
I.E. and then proceeded, headed by the land of the lot
DRY., under the leadership of Bandmaster Foster, to a
field in Allington called Broad Mead, kindly lent for the
occasion by Mr. It K Iliddlecombe. There a spacion4
tent was erected, the property of Mr. W. Bridle, Masons'
Arnie Inn, Bridport. The dinner was provided by Mr.
Belson, King's Anus Inn, the secretary of the society, of
which about 150 members and friends partook. The chair
was taken by the Mayor of Bridnort (Mr. '. Tucker) and
the vice-chair by Mr. 11. Hounsell. There were also pre-
sent the Treasurer of the Society (ar. 11. Stembridge),
and the following gentlemen :—Mr. C. Ralson, Mr. If.
Bamford, Mr. C. Northover, Mr. Spitler, Mr. I). Z.
Biddleeotnhe, Mr. .1. Bucknole, kc., kr .
After the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN proposed
the "Health of the Queen," as being the first lady in the
land, and the noble way in which she had treated
Cameron, and other explorers proved her to be the lest
Queen in the world. He need not speak anything more
about her virtue', as they all knew them.

Band : "God bless the Prince of Wales."
The Citogns,s, in proposing the next toast, "The
Bishop and Clergy and Ministers of all Denominations,"
alluded to the sheens* of the vicar of the parish, who was
just recovering from a severe illness, and it would not be
proper for him to be preaent. A letter was here read from
the Rev. L. Thomas, who is officiating for the Iter. E.
May, through his illness, apologising for his absence.
Hand: "Doxology."
In proposing "The Army, Navy, and Volunteers," the
C0L1R.14.01 said that England had never shown greater
strength than at the present moment Our 05%y in the
Mediterranean was now very strong, and capable of
taking care of their own. Ile called on Corporal Cook to
respond for the Volunteers.
Corporal COOK said he was very pleased to respond for
the Volunteers, he having belonged to them for the last
15 years, and although not an smart as was formerly, he
still continued to feel an interest in the corps. Things
now look very threatening on the Continent, and several
times it has been mooted in Parliament about ballotting
for the Militia, so his advice to all the young men now
present was to join the Volunteers, and thus save them-
selves from being hallotted for the Militia.
The next toast was "Success to the Allington Friendly
Society, and the Treasurer (Mr. If. Stembridge) was called
on to respond.
Mr. STEXIIRTOGI said he was hapuy to say that this
year they had had a very good collection, lie should
think the club would be more benefitted if 10. per week
were paid instead of dd. As treasurer MA duties were
very Slot, as the Secretary (Mr. Liaison) and Mr. 11.
Holman did all the work.
Mr, It N. Cox, in proposing "The Trustees," remarked
that the club provided for what we must all come to—
death but sickness it did not provide for. To all 'd
them sickness was likely to conic, and then the member
was least able to pay his weekly contribution of 64. They
could very easily make a sick fund by paying Id. per
week. lie had known this to answer very well in large
workshops.
Mr. H. E. 13inntscoune responded for the Trustees,
and said he MBA very glad to see so many present that
day. The benefits' of the society, especially in medical
attendance, he had seen himself. That must he left with
themselves the remark that had been made to pay Is. per
week instead of NI.
. . _ .

The CiisiansN, in proposing "The health of the Com•
mittee," hoped that they would respond heartily to this
toast, as they had been working for them the last two
years. lie should call on Mr. 11. Holum,ll to respond.
Mr. 11. lloymssm., in responding for the Committee
said that they had worked very amicably together, and
with all respect to the opinions of Mr. Cox, he thought
the members would rather continue as they were at pre-
sent. Ile then read the balance sheet of nu. society,
and proposed "The health of their medical officer,_
. . -

nand : "flea a Hearty Good Fellow."
The Secretarir and llost," Mr. nelson, was the List
toast, to which Mr. BALSON suitably responded.
Mr. It. Svr.unnimie proposed "The health of the
Mayor and Chairman (Mr. C. Tucker)," which the Chair-
man responded to.
The division of the fun& of the society then took
place, the PM menibers who had been in two years
receiving CI 17s. 71d. each, and 15 members, one year,

Dancing to the strain of the lst DALY. hand and
other amusements were indulged in during the evening.

CHRISTOPIER DOULDING. a Bowden farmer, has been
committed to prisoner for cruelty to a mare. While
drunk he broke her leg, and left her in a field for some
days unable to rise. She gnawed the grass round her,
and was eventually shot. The prisoner inhumanely left
the foal with the dead mother.

WITCHCRAFT IN KAFFIR-LAND.—That witchcraft WAS a
deadly sin, Sir Matthew Hale and other learned persons
cotemporary with him were abundantly warred. Yet it
is questionable whether Janka-Janka, who. according to
the South African Voikalei is, is chief rd the Knobcce Knee;
would have had much mercy from the great Chief Justice
of Charles IL's time. It appears that a Kafir belonging to
his tribe went to the diamond fields to seek his fortune.
On his return to the kraal he was ordered, according to
custom. to pay a tribute of one pound sterling to Janka.
Janke, his liege lord. The sovereign was handed up and
duly pocketed by the chieftain, who was considering how
he could hest expend it, when he was suddenly taken
It was a clear case of witchcraft, and the unlucky Kafir,
with his wife and child, was at once sent for. On arrival
he was seised by Janks-Janka, who put out his eyes, cut
off his nose, tied him up tight, and then threw him into a
river. The woman was next treated in a similar fashion,
with the addition that her child, whose neck had been
previously twisted. was fastened to her back em she was
hurled into the water. After this, Janka-Janka felt sonic-
what better, and would probably have entirely recovered
in time, had not a posse of policemen called upon him and
hinted that so soon as the bodies of his victims were found
be would have tato through the form of a trial for murder.
It would, indeed, appear necessary that some such steps
should be taken, for, beside Janka-Janka's eccentricities.
the authorities of the district have to deal with the
peculiarities of a large number of other equally energetic
persona, whuall possess the same profound belief in witch-
craft and its remedy, and one of whom, since the incident
already mentioned, actually applied to an official known
as the Yield Cornet for permission to kill a couple of
women who, he said, hail bewitched two other Kafirs.
