When the corps returned to town, headed by tkeit
captain, the steadiness of their march, four deep
through the town, 'celled much admiration.

Btamuroao.—ki ea (.I.4eapel. On Sunday the
lay teachersand held their aeniversary meet-
ing at the Kingston Chapel. We do not use the
term "anniversary" as it is frequently wood, to denote
festive proceedings, but to convey the idea that the
meeting was characterised by sacred engagements,
having special and thankful reference to the path.
Fifteen years since, the inhabitants of this village
may be truly said to have literally revelled in iniquity.
Vice did not lurk in its secret places, but
assumed an open and unabashed appearance fright-
ful to contemplate. The Sunday was regardnl by
the demoralised villagers as a day when vice was to
assume its ugliest aspects, when swearing, pitch-and•
toes, and fighting amused the juveniles and the men,
unwashed and unshaven, slept, drank, and wage-
bondized away their precious hours. It was when
vice seemed to kave culminated in this village that
two or three religious men visited it in a missionary
spirit. The influence they at brat exerted on inch
antagonistic elements was but small, though hopeful.
Time, however, awl unrelexed efforts produced more
of hope, till the visiting from house to house was
succeeded by public worship in the cottage, and the
few becoming many, the cottage was left for the
chapel. Voluntary pecuniary aid kept pace with
the voluntary labour, and from £3OO to £4OO was
liberally supplied by the dissenters of this place to
defray the expenses incurred in purchasing ground
and building the chapel. Fourteen years have elapsed
since these promising beginnings, and at this time
the Sunday School is attended by 120 to 150 boys
and girls, ranging from the age of 5 to 16 years old;
and each service on the Sunday is attended by an
average congregation of 150 serious and respectably
dreamed villagers. There is a flourishing church
gradually and healthily increasing its number, and
not only are most of its members engaged in a sphere
of religious activity, but a few of the females pray
at the prayer meetings, and otherwise conduct de-
To tional services. In fact, the church formed is a
really working one; and thus by external agency,
there has not only been developed a general, sound
religious character among the villagers, but many of
thew have shown that aptitude for teaching and
for engaging in other active spheres of labour as to
induce the hope that, should external aid be with-
driwn, native effort would efficiently take its place.
Five or six of the members of the dissenting congre-
gation in this place regularly visit the village and
remain there during the whole of the Sunday, con-
ducting the different services in connection with
native agency, and occasionally visit it on interven-
ing days. The expense of being conveyed to and
fro, and all other expenses incidental to the support
of a poor congregation have ever been defrayed by
the workers-up of this interesting religious enter-
prise; and though twelve miles of exposed country
have to be gone over Sunday after Sunday in storm
or sunshine yet the pioneers in this work base
cheerfully faced the bleak hills through fifteen
winters, and have now the rich reward of seeing
the Sunday not only decently, hut even religiously
kept; the social aspects of village life changed from
seuii•barbarinn to theetlfvfflized chatacteriston of our
time,; and of knowing that the timers gratefully
acknowledge the changed character of the labourers
the> employ. The villagers licked to the anuiver-
sary on Sunday last, and imany•who had received in-
struction in the Sunday school oame from distant
places of service to be present at this annual religious
gathering. A devout thankfulness was expressed lq
the countenances of all, and when the Blandford and
village teachers—numbering twenty in the whole—
assembled round the tea table at their one •cial
gathering in the year, the gratifying past and the
hopeful future must have given a joy to that social
meal with which, indeed, the stranger intermeddleth
not. Lay agency could not have been tested in a
better field, and we are bound to lay that as a mode
of effecting religious good, no better proof could be
given than is afforded by the history of this village
during the last fifteen years. We had all but
omitted to refer to the interesting fact of a bible class
having been fanned of labouring men, ranging from
twenty to forty, years of age, who may be seen Sun-
day after Sunday eagerly receiving the instruction
sought to be impart. Any person doubtful of the
efficient practicability of lay agency, under the bless-
ing of God, in reference to religious work, would
cease to entertain any doubt on the subject were he
to pay a visit ot investigation to the village of
Kingston.

EVERCRIZCH.—At the Salisbury County Court, on
Wednesday last, the new trial in the case of John
Strong v. Charles Phillip., came on for hearing. It
will be remembered that this, which was an action
for £33 4s. 63., for breach of warranty on a lot of
sheep that afterwards turned out " cotherl," was
heard in the Salisbury County Gairt in January last,
and that it resulted in a verdict fur defendant, to the
evident surprise of the Jude, who, on application,
granted a new trial. Mr. Whaturan, on the part of
the plaintiff, also applied for a change of venue, on
the grouiel that the cause could be more fairly heard
in another ...out, and proposed to try the ...mse at
Dorchester. Ilia Honor refused to change the venue,
on the grimed that he should be exercising a most
arbitrary dist retiun if he were to grant the application
without a strung affidavit from the party applying
that he could not get a fair trial in this county. Ile,
however, granted the application for a new trial, on
condition that the costa of the first hearing should be
paid by the plaintiff. The case came on for re•
hearing on Wednesday last, before a jury, when the
court was crowded. Mr. Edlln, of the Western
Circuit, instructed by Mr. Bakli, of Bruton, and
Messrs. Nuarey and Whattuan, of Salisbury, was
counsel for the plaintiff; and Mr. T. W. Saunders,
of the Western Circuit, instructed by Messrs. 11011-
dings, Townsend, and Lee, were counsel for the
defendant. The following gentlemen were sworn on
tha jury:— Moots. ticerge Manning* (foreman),
Edward Udder', Charles flwyer, Deorge Mason,
and Walter Young. It is linnet:eatery to repeat the
conflicting evidence adtinixil. The plaintiff, who
called a witneersi on the first occasion, produces' 15
n this; and for the defence eight were pnalticed,
among whim were Mr. Truckle and Mr. Coleman,
vetennary ourgeons, who gave it as their opinion
that one sheep had not the disease when sold. His
Honor in summing up, observed that there wee no
denial that the tilitep were thaeased--the only toes-
tbin was when they bemune so diseased. There were
two peanut in the case. First, was there a warranty
or nut? If there was no warranty given at the time
.of the MAU SLAW LIAO aldslldalli WAS not liable, and
the plaititiff must put up with a bad bargain. But
examilly, the yuestrou was—hail these sheep the
seeds of disease in them at the time of sale at Wilton
fair? Had they those seeds %hid* Immune more
developed afterwards? The great point for the jury
to determine was whether or nut the sheep were in
an incipient state of disease when they were sold at
Wilton fair. Ilia Honor asked the jury whether
they believed that the sheep had the seeds of disease
in there before they were sold, or whether they got
the disease on the way to the plaintiff's farm? After
going through the whole case in a very clear and
elaborate manner, His Honor mincluded by again
impressing upon the jury that they must firet be
satisfied that a warranty was given, and secondly
they must consider whether or not the sheep were
diseased when they were sold. The jury inane-
diately found a verdict for .f 33 4s. 6.1., the amount
claimed. His Honor said that if it was any satin-
faction to the jury, he perfectly agreed with the
verdict.

SomenroN.—The funeral of the late Mr*. Pinney
took place on Tuesday last. The minute bell com-
menced tolling at ten a.m., and a general gloom
seemed to prevail in the town. The principal shops
were closed, and the inhabitants generally followed
in the procession, which formed at 12 o'clock in the
following order : —let mourning coach, drawn by 4
horses, containing the Rev. Mr. Horner, Mr. John

The corpse was met at the churchyard by the Rev. R.
Atthill, the vicar, sod the Rev. Reginald Smith,
who enlisted the vicar in the Burial service, which
was performed in a most solemn and impressive
manner. The undertakers were Mears. James and
Oliver Nigh, Clifton, Bristol ; the oak coffin and
shell were made by Mr. James Watts, of this town,
and the lead coffin by Mr. John Beer, of Somerton.
Writs. Tkomas Tatter Adams, farmer, of
Wookey, was brought before Dr. Muss last week,
charged with stealiog • flap of hay from tile rick berton
of Mr. John Mill, fernier, 4 Wookey. John Hill

I said to bun, "a thief lias robbed me to night of sow,

replied, "I hope you will." I then mid "You hove

"this is my hay." He said, "nolt is not." I said
" where did you get it from r He replied, " I bought
it of Sbingleton, of Panborough ; it grew on the bottom
of the Moor" (meaning Nuostle Moor.) I said thit no
such hay was grown there. I further said I would
wager a sovereign that if lie took up the flap of bay and
earned it book to my rick, it should correapood exactly,
and I pointed out that it was a second cut going round
the rick. Prisoner replied, " tio is Shingletou'a ; there

door, when he said to me, "I own I took it from your

to-morrow morning, but you had better keep out of the
way of the pulisettuut or be will take you to night, and
if he does I shall never let you go." The prisoner was
sent for trial at the amnions, but admitted to

pier and tram road progress but slowly.

RIOSTOIR•TION Or THE CHURCH--The re-opening
of this sacred edifice will be delayed a short period
on account of the liberal gift of Mrs. Coventry of a
large three-light chancel window. Great praise is
due to Mr. Edward Mondey, builder and contractor,
for the forward state of the ancient fabric, and also
for the supply of so excellent workmanship and

valuable fur fue/, were destroyed, but which the
owner has forbidden any one to cut, being a good
harbour fur rabbita. No one could approach the
fire to snake any attempt to put it out, and bad it

consequences can only be imagined. There is every
