BOTHENFIAMPTON.

A.CODENT.—Ou Sunday evening a woman named Tuff
was going up the path towards the Rev. W. B. Ben-
net's residence, when a pony made towards her. She,
fearing the animal, turned hastily round, doing which
she fell on a heap of stones, breaking her arm and
bruising her face. She returned to Bridport, and Dr.
Hay and Son set the fractured limb, and she is, we
believe, progressing favourably.

and his other stages of verbenas and other cut
flowers were remarkably good. The second place
as a nursery exhibitor was well occupied by Mr.
Samways, who showed many fine things.
Amongst
the amateurs, • Mr. Guodry's balsams, which
obtained the second prize, were very noblyflowered,
and his first prise standard fuchsia " ltdiernau" was
magnificent as a single specimen. Mr. Hounsell
showed many excellent productione, not for c•impe-

We must not omit to state that the laud of the

excellent music" during the exhihition.
A smart shower fell during the early part of the
afternoon, but, with this exception, the weather
was most agreeable, and the show merited a better
attendance.

WAREFIAM.

ACCIDENT.- -On Tuesday a sad accident occurred
to a young man named Edwards, a porter at the
Wareham station of the London and South-Western
Railway. It appears that be was endeavouring to
take one of the tracks off the train when he
requested the engine to put back a few panes
to slacken the coupling irons. In the mean-
time, however, he had released the truck,
and was endeavouring to pass out between
the buffers, when the engine put back, and he was
crushed in the lower part of the body. It is feared
that he will not recover.

Laavirm Sitevlce.—On Monday, Henry Donford,
of Charminster, labourer, was brought up in the
custody of the police, upon a warrant obtained on
the information of Mr. Samuel Tucker, of St.
Andrews, East Lulworth, charging him with
illegally absenting himself from his service. The
defendant bad been summoned to attend the
Wareham petty sessions on the 6th June, but
failing to do so, the warrant was issued, and he had
been in custody since Wednesday. During his stay
in the lock-up he was taken very ill, and medical
attendance had to he obtained. The contract for a
twelvemonth's servitude having been proved, Mr.
Rodgett, who heard the case, asked Mr. Tucker
if he were willing to take the defendant back,
should he be sent to gaol? Mr. Tucker replied in
the negative, and the magistrate said that such
being the case, the only thing he could do was to
dissolve the contract. He could not punish the
man by incarceration and discharge him too. The
defendant, however, would have to pay costa.

.....
You recollect, perhaps, that in 10.59, when I last had
the pleasure of addreas•ng -you on a similar Ottani ,11 to
the proaent. I spoke as though it would be but a very
short time indeed before I saw yen again for a like pur•
pone. At that time it was generally considered that the
question of Iteform, in regard to which Lord Derby sub-
mitted a bill to the House that was rejected on a pro-
position made be Earl Russell, would be the first sub-
ject settled in 1859. But that Parliament, for from
having died out within one year an was anticipated,
has attained an age which Jew parliaments have dune
for • long period.
THE HEATH OF THE REFORM HILL

Let us now oonsider whether the life of the Parlia-
ment about to be terminate I, heal). en such as to render
it worthy of the thanks of the public, whether it has
done what it promised, and whether, in fact, it has
behaved properly and rightly towards the pe +pie. Let
us take first the points that miy be urged against it.
It may be said that the Parliament of 1859 was called
together to settle the question of Reform, which it has
not done. A Parlmment that dos not fulfil its promises
is prima facie, liable to great disapprobation from throe
who elected it. But there are many circumstances to
be considered before arriving at such a conclusion.
Almost every member, whether Liberal or Conservative,
that went to Parliament in 1859 was pledged to a
Reform Bill which I. houl,l result in an extension of the
franchise in some way or other. The present ministry
brought in a Reform Bill, which wee, after a considerable
time, talked to death, and expired only from lack of
strength, which I believe was in a great measure owing
—I must speak fairly—not to any desire of the members
to depart from their pledgee, but from the spathy of the
people in regard to the Bill proposed. Under these
circumstances, Parliament, I think, is not so guilty as
might at first sight appear in not carrying out the
Reform pledge given in 1859.

WIDNESDAT.

_
STATEMENT BY LORD WESTBURY. - The Lord
Chancellor gave his valedictory explination, and we
may say that "nothing in life became him like leaving
of it." It may well be said that adversity, like the
toad, has a precious jewel in its head ; for, perhaps, for
the first time in his existence, Lord Westbury made a
soft and conciliatory speech. He recounted the several
ncea..ious on which he had offered to resign, but in
deference to the judgment of the Government had not
done 80, and said, "I wish your lordships and the
public to believe that I have not clung to office for any
unworthy motives. With regard to the opinion ex-
pressed by the flcuse of Commons, 1 will not presume
to say, I bow to it, but at the same time I hope
I may be allowed to express a hope that after
an interval of time calmer thoughts will prevail, and •
feeling more favourable towards um will be entertained."
With the great legal reforms he had accomplished he
hoped his name would in future be associated. He
only regretted that he could not carry out those other
amendnienta in the law which were required, and as •
private member of the House, he would assist to the
best of his ability the work which he had conimenoed.
While he had filled the office of Chancellor it bad been
his earnest desire to do his duty faithfully and
energetically: He thanked his fellow peers for the
kindness which he bad uniformly received, .nd asked
pardon of all the world if he had uttered a harsh word
or used an offensive expression (Heaven knows he has
—a good many of them I) in the whole course of his life,
and prayed it might be erased from their memories.
Thus the judicial Cesar folds his robes around him,
and drops at the base of Pompey's pillar, with more
grace than he ever evinced in his prosperity, and be
was actually cheered at the close.

PIIDDLETOWN.
MR Congregationalist,' celebratel their first meeting
in this village on Coronation Day, when upwards of 100
sat down to tee. Addresses were afterwerds delivered
by the Rev. J. Fox, the Rev. C. Merriman, and Mr.
John King, of Dorchester; Mr. Hammett, of Toliorl•
dl., and Mr. Davis, of Cherminster, whose well-timed
remark. were lietened to with marked attention. The
party dispersed about nine o'clock after having spent a
most agreeable day.

PUDDIATOWN NATIONAL SCHOOL—The Rev. W. W.
Howard, her Majesty's Insprotor of Schools, has just
forwarded the following report of his examination of
this school on the 13th ult.: " There is great improve-
ment here in order, and especially in reading and arith-
metic The master appears to do his work with seal."
Out of 59 children presented for examination, 54 passed
in reading, 55 in writing, and 56 in arithmetic. It will
be recollected also that there was a good report received
last year. Considering the deficient accommodation
aftwded by the present soh ol house, and the still more
deficient apparatus which it contains, especially as re-
gards &slot, the above restAs are highly satisfactory ;
the per centrists of " passes" being higher then that
obtained by many well-furnished schools. The present
master, Mr. Hayoox, however, will leave before the new
schools open, as the boys and girls will then be sepa-
rated, and will require to be under the charge of a
master and mistress.

CHARMENSTER.

BIBLE SOCIETY.—The first meeting in this village
on behalf of the British and Foreign Bible Society,
was held on Tuesday, the 4th inst., in Mr. Slide's
barn, which was conveniently fitted for the occasion.
The chair was taken at 7 o'clock by G. J. Wood,
Esq., of Athelhampton. After singing and prayer,
addresses were delivered by the Chairman, and the
Revds. E. W. Pears and E. Merriman. A Ladies'
Association, in connection with the Dorchester
Auxiliary, was established, and a vote of thanks to
Mr. Slade far the use of the barn passed unani-
mously. Messrs. M. Devenish, of Dorchester, T. A.
Homer, of Tolpuddle, James Lovelace, of Piddle-
hinton, and John Spinks, of Charininster, 'ruled
part of the numerous audience, which showed much
interest in the proceedings. The collection amounted

tity of coot which each house or c ditage is likely to
produce, I don't forbid it. But they must expect
much dust and dirt arising from it, and ma house the
smell of soot, even if it should deodorise other matter,
is not very agreeable, As to the frequent use of the
same earth, that is necessary only where, as in the
ease of towns, there may be a difficulty in providing
A sufficient quantity for the single use, anti where it
is an object with a view to fiedity of carriage to
condense the power and value of the manure. One
remark further as to what "W. 0. K." says as to
making our cesa pools out of our above ground.
There Is now no need of this, nor any need of a shed
(excepting in some etch oases as those above men-
tioned) for drying and mixing the earth and eater°.
ment. Your earth or ashes most be keut under
cover, neither is there any need, with very few ex-
ceptions, of a mixer. Iu a steady following up of
practical experiment and observation, I have fouled
that the best plan is to till up the old ceas-pool to
the depth of 3 or 4 feet, and to make in it a bottom
of coal, ashes, and tar, or, if you please, of cement,
and in making • new one to observe the same rule.
Have an opening to this either behind, or, as in two
cases I have, make a trap-door in the floor of the
privy. Let the deposit of earth and excrement fall
into this vault or chamber. Let the earth be applied
in detail and occasionally ; let a scraper, if you
-ohocee, level the deposit, and there never will be the
slightest offensive smell ; while you may leave it
there if you please for a twelvemonth, and within
two months from the falling of the deposit even the
paper disappears. You say, sir, that the earth closet
is a horticultural rather than an agricultural subject.
If you could see, indeed, the produce of some gar-
dens in Dorset in which the system has been in use
for two, three, and four years, you would say still
more decidedly that it is well worthy the attention
of every one who has a garden. But if you were to
Lear the observations of the many agriculturists who
have seen the recent improvements made in the
machinery of White and Co's closete —improvements
both in simplicity and efficieney—and who have seen
also my arrangements of the vaults on my own pre-
mises, and in my parochial soboul-room, you would
say it is equally worthy the attention of farmers.
One farmer, on seeing • model of the machinery
said the arrangement of the vault, said to me, "I
had no conception of anything so simple. So soon
as this is manufactured I shall have two for my
farmyard:" and another add—" Let these models
be sent about the country, and every farmer must
adopt the plan." Henry Moult, Fordingion

EGYPT.

THE Nile has been rising sensibly for the lost few
chy&

CROLICRA.—The prevalence of cholera in Alexandria
has excited a peanut panic in that city. The disease
has becime of a most virulent nature, aided and
fostered as it lias been by the dirty habits of the popula-
tion, as well as by the want of drainage, and carries off
thosa attacked by it in a few hours. According to a
letter from Alexandria, the panic is 80 extreme that the
steam-boat offices are besieged by terrified crowds
anxious to flee for their lives ; and some families have
taken passages in sailing vessels, quite careleas of
whither they are bound. The Viceroy sot the example;
for he no sooner ascertained that a death from cholera
bad actually occurred than be took to flight preci-
pitately, and has left Egypt. The cholera appe,rs to be
of a most violent kind, and the countries bordering on
the Mediterranean are beginning to be alarmed. The
following were the deaths recorded within six days :
On the 20th June 193; on the 25th, 183 ; on the 21'11,
95 ; on the 23rd, 125; on the 22nd, 145; on the 21st,

THE PROPAGATION' OF SALMON.

To at Bditors.

As the Salmon question is now again occupy-
ing some attention, I wish to say a few words
on the subject. Several Salmon Acts have been
passed within the past four years for promoting the
breeding of Salmon, but this, and all the contri-
vances patronized by Salmon Committees, have failed
to produce an increased quantity. 1 have spent
some time in examining the cause of this, and I find
it is chiefly owing to a want of proper attention to
the spawning beds, and in oases which frequently
occur, when the fry have been hatched, a proper care
of the same. A large number of the spawning beds
are destroyed by the sudden flush of water caused
by the floods in December. In cases, however, as I
mentioned above, where the bed. escape this and the
fry are hatched, their chances of a safe passage to the
sea are very remote, beseiged as they are in our
rivers by the perch and jack. I refer you to the
outline map of Dorset annexed, by which you will
see there are 16 or 18 rivuleta running into the sea
between Lyme Regis and Bournemouth. Now if
there is a difficulty as to the rivers running far
inland, why not form breeding ponds It the months of
these rivulets where they might be reared without
difficulty or danger, and could have easy access to
the sea without being infested by jack, he. This
plan is, I think, possible enough and might be easily
carried out with little expense and a fair chance of
emcees, and if this plan was also adopted in the
counties bordering on the coast of England, the sea
would soon be stocked with this delicacy which could
, then be obtained at • far cheaper rate than at present,
'So long as the matter is trifled with as it is at
present, so long will Salmon be scarce, and at a high
price. It stands to reason that owners of Salmon
fisheries will keep the fish to a certain quantity to
remunerate their own purses. Decisive action is
required, and the return will be in oheap Salmon and
in plenty.
I am, yours truly,
W. KENDALL.

would be doing quite right in paying the money to
plaintiff, when he proceeded to dispute two items in the
bill, amounting to 28. The coat, it appeared, was had
in March, 1861. His Honor ordered payment of 12s. 9d.

which resulted in the defendant not patronising the

TO THE ELECTOR OF THE BOROUGH AND
TOWN OF WEYMOUTH AND MELCOMBE
REGIS.

IGEICTLEMEN
N accepting the invitation with which I have
been honoured to become a Candidate far the
Representation of your Borough in Parliament, I am
sensible that my chief claim to your support is in my
earnest and independent advocacy of those Liberal
principles to which the Nation owes its Civil and
Religions Liberties, and the pear* and prosperity it
now enjoys. On the supremacy of those principles, I
sin oonvinoed, depends the maintenance and expansion
of those blessings in the future.
I regard the extension of the Franchise as no less re-
quired on account of the great envenom in the social and
intellectual condition, and the increase of the population
since the passing of the last Reform Bill, than it is
politic in order to embrace within the Constitutional
Government an equal representation of all classes.
The anomalous and irritating position of Church
Rates ought no longer to be permitted, and as a com-
promise has failed, the only alternative is complete
abolition. Although I am a sincere member of the
Church of England, I feel that to compel by law those
who are not of its communion to contribute to the
support of it, is not only unjust, but is derogatory to
its own dignity and impedes its usefulness.
The Policy of Lord Palineraton's Government in non-
intervention with the affairs of other Countries' and its
jtdicjous,enapcia, and commercial Policy, has my
heart •pprogiff ; air I am prepared to give his
admin stration a general support, believing that by it
peace will he preserved—the Revenue further increased
—taxation reduoed—and the wellbeing of the Country
advanced.
While I would in no degree curtail those Notional
works so important to the country's defence, nor impair
the efficiency of the army and navy, I would advocate a
closer supervision, and, where practicable, a reduction in
the public expenditure.
Independent in position, free from any professional or
business pursuit, and not altogether without experience,
I should devote myself to my political duties as one of
your representatives, and to the furtherance of your
local and individual interests.
I shall shortly solicit in person the favor of your
Votes, when it will give me pleasure to explain more
fully my political sentiments.
I have the honor lobe,

Gentlemen,
Your very obedient servant,
H. G. GRIDLEY.

Tai COTSWOLD HOUNDS.—At t recent meeting it
was decided to give a guarantee to the extent of £1,300
for the next year, irrespective of the £.sooexpected from
the town of Cheltenham.

THIL 4th ef July. and annivensry of American indn
pendence, was celebrated by the Americans resident in
London with more than usual rejoicing.

AItEMPTED MURDER AND SOICIDII.—On Tuesday
morning, at Plaistow, a man named Lovelace, who had
been drinking for some time before, beat his wife nearly
to death, and afterwards made an attempt on his own
life. Both remain in a critical state.

TEM Great Western Railway have been adjudged to
pay £2O damages to Mr. Eloldway„ in conaequence of
five young pigs, which were sent from Bath to be
exhibited at a show in Birmingham, in November last,
not having been sent by the tiain which they aught to
have gone by.
DieTEUCTION OF A POWDIER MILL—The Safety
Powder Company's Works, Southdown, Hamosze,
Plymouth, took fire on Wednesday morning. No one
was working on the premises at the time. From the
nature of the patent powder, the explosion was harmless
to the neighbourhood.

THE VOTE OF CENSURE OE THE LORD CHANCELLOR.
—The Times thinks gnat credit is due to the Hones of
Commons for its conduct in the Lord Chancellor's case.
The Daily Telegraph still regards the attack upon the
Chancellor as political rather than personal. The
Herald thinks the Chancellor's colleagues might also be
held responsible for his misconduct.
Mr. Coivritu, has lost his new balloon. He made
an ascent from Belfast on Monday, being accompanied
by eight other gentlemen. On descending an accident
took place, and six of the aeronauts, including Mr.
Colwell, were thrown out of the car. At this instant
the valve lines broke, and the balloon shot up into the
air with two gentlemen, who had not the slightest
knowledge as its management. By the latest accounts
these two gentlemen appear to have got out of the
dilemma in some way; but it is really marvellous that
they were not killed. The balloon was wrecked on the
shores of the Bay of Luggan (Islay), on Tuesday morn-
ing. No pusengers were in the car; but four coats and
two hats and the Northern Whig of July 1. The Balloon
was first seen passing over the hills north of Port Ellen,
after which it struck the sea and went ashore.

THE BEET TEA EIGHT-PENCE PER POUND CUBANS& '

with satisfaction, the announcement, that in conse-
quence of the Reduction in Duty, Horniman's Pure
Teas are sold by the Agents in all parts of the kingdom
Eight-pence per pound cheaper. The decided preference
given during the past quarter of a century to these
perfectly Pure Teas, will, now the prices are so greatly
reduced, be even more widely extended. Their
distinctive superiority has attracted a boat of imitators,
therefore this tea is supplied only in sealed Packets,
through Agents—Chemists, kc.,—and as a further
protection against spurious imitations, every genuine

My experience in Foreign Politic, since I last

me to view with increasing admiration and affection,
' the well-tempered liberty which we have the happiness

freedom have not preserved to the Amerioans even the
semblance of liberty, nor do I observe that de.potiam
in Fracas, however wisely conducted, has during the
last seven years taken any steps towards increasing the
liberty of the subject. Our wise, temperate, and
grateful enjoyment of the blessings we have, will. in
my judgment, best be evidenced by caution in under-
taking measures which cannot but be tentative in pursuit
of improvement.

POOLE.

TEM REPRESENTATION.—The Conservatives, we
are informed, have agreed to support Mr. Stephen
Lewis, of Boston, at the election. The nomination
is fixed far two p.m. on Tuesday (this day) and the
p fling for Wednesday.

BANKRUPTCY. —Charles Evans, formerly of this
town, hatter and clothier, and on 27th April (the
date of the bankruptcy) a prisoner for debt in
Dorchester gaol, whose accounts showed a deficiency
of £4OO 10a. Od., before Mr. Commissioner Goulbura,
at the Bankruptcy Court, has passed his examination
and obtained an immediate order of discharge.
THE ELECTION.—On Wednesday night the Town-
hall was crowded to hear the political opinions of
Mr. W. T. Hely, an independent Liberal candidate
who unsuccessfully contested the borough in the
elections of 18.57 and 1859. Mr. Angel Hodges pre-
sided. Mr. Haly's remarks chiefly related to the
interests which bad been brought to bear on the
electors at previous elections.
ELECTION A DDRESSES.—On Tuesday night, Mr.
Henry Danby Seymour, and Mr. Charles Waring, the
two Liberal candidates, met the electors at the Tows-
hall for the purpose of expressing their political
opinions. The hall was crowded. Alderman Wanhill
occupied the chair, and there were &leo present upon
the platform, besides Mr. Seymour and Mr. Waring,
Mr. Wheeler, (of London), Mr. F. T. Rogers, Mr.
Lankester, Mr. Sanders, Mr. G. Belben, Mr. • Guess,
Mr. M.. Kemp-Welch, and Mr. Harker. Both the
candidates were well received. Their speeches,
which were an elaboration of their published
addresses, were at intervals loudly applauded. Mr.
G. Belben, jun., moved and Mr J. Wood, seconded
that Messrs. Seymour and Waring are entitled to
the support of the electors of Poole, and that a com-
mittee be formed for promoting their return to
Parliament. On the Chairman putting the motion,
' but very few hands were held up, and he observed
that he could not say the resolution was carried by a
majority. A vote of thanks to the Chairman, for
whom three cheers were given, terminated the
proceedings.
