CORRESPONDENCE.

To tho Kditor.

Sir,—la the lest week's issue of the Advertiser was
a notice that Mrs Randall had written to the Board
of Trade, aimplaining of injury done to the sea walls
of lier stone banker by removing shingle from the
adjoining beach. The parties who dared to do such
• thing without the consent of Mire. Randall should
certainly be made a public esample of; therefore we
are pleased to see the Local Board makini; such •
manly stand in this case, fur there are some in
Swanage who would have the audacity to take awe,
a bucket of seawater in front of Mrs. Randall •
bankers and we think that this would have an equally
damaging effect on Mrs Randall's sea wall as the
taking away of the shingle from the adjoining beach.
Our suggi-ition for the remedy of the above would be
that the Board of Trade should be requested to send
a commissioner down to investigate the case, and
have the bankers put hack to high water mark, which
are now so far below it It would thus save Mrs.
Randall • good deal of anxiety, and oblige her shore-
liming friends, and also your humble servants

INTERESTING DISCOVERIES.

The following Information, being of • local character,
might interest some of your readers. Many objects
bsionging t an &admit settlement, situated near the
Passage Bridge, between Weymouth and Portland,
have recently been brought to light by the action of
the waves washing and washing away the deposit in
which they hare go long been bnrivd. The most
interesting of these tend to throw more light upon
the mse Jere and customs, and also enable us to trace

these people, compared to an earlier race of people who
pre-000upied this locality. To them the metallurgic
art was quite unknown. I will there' ore desigoat•

SIARR-BOwtarr SOCIETY FOR PORTLAND.

To Mc Vigor.

Dear Sir,—lt is rumoured that a branch of the
Startr-Ilkswkett Building Society is about to be formed
in this island. .%Ithoitgh wishing such a society
every success, it would appear to be desirable in a
place like Portland that it should ho started on a
broad and popular basis. Ido not think that such is
the Ca•U in the present instance Unless then. is
every prospect of basing a large number of members
to start with, it is practically certain to fail. Mem
hers are not likely to come forward hero unless they
have every confidence in this management, and to
gain that object it is obvious that the directors and
officers should be chosen with • view to isspularity.
This would 'notably bet best accomplished by convening
• isublic meeting of the influential inhabitants, and
chuosing the requisite number therefrom If there is
no likelihood of the drawings taking place at frequent
interval*, it will be more to the interest of the
individual member to inve4 his money in the
flourishing second Weymouth Society, where he will
have a much greater chance of accomplishing the

For making the visit Ad pleasant and agreeable AN
jeeeible, the committee seemingly evidently imbued
with the impreseion that the thing should he
well done, and in a way that the reputation
of porcheeter, as the county town, should be
properly maintained. The chief point, of course,
WWI mi to the funds that would be required to
meet the expense., the general opinion being that
.1.200 would enable the committee to carry out the
arrangements on a liberal scale. It was suggested,
among other matters, that the battalion should be
entertained in II suitable manner I y the townspeople
on their arrival on the 27th ; but whether this will
take ;glace out of dotes. in the Fair-field, or some
other suitable place, or in the rfurn Exchange, was
