Tel LTIVRATION" SOCIETY. —I quite agree with
the remarks of your correspondent in ref irenee
to the pre.ideney of ha Worship the Ili ,yor,
'the late meeting of the so-called Liberation Society.
, however, consolatory to find now few his presenoe
i,,ttracited to the meeting beyond the body of political
Dissenters, although an attempt had been made to per.
suede the simple-minded here, that it was nothing
more than a religious !meting ;and I know of one
person especially, who would never have attended it but
with ibis itr_ipswidon. ' He soon, however, found out his
mistake. The lecturer informed the meeting that he
._atiould remain In Biidport until noon next day, ;to
receive the names of to the society, but I
am told that the was very feebly res.

ST. Pirristi's, tti4x. —The need there wets for
the erection of this church is powerfully indicated
by the large congregations that are gathered there
at the services. On Sunday evening the house was
tilled to overflowing. Prayers were read by the
Rev. J. Drew; the Rev. J. L. Folford, the recently
ordained and licensed curate of Symotilsbury, read
thelestoa4; end the Rev. R. Rawlinson, the reciter
of the pariah, preached the sermon. The musical
portion of the service, as usual here, was most ably
Those attending the service were mainly
persons lising in the parish, though a number were
present from Bridport, to hvhona the soothiag calm
of the stilly moonlit night:as they homeward walked
was oatefully welcome, and rendered doubly im•
promise the exhortations of the preacher.
PIVD6R,'S Ciacois, announeed by the high-aounding
title of 'The great international einnio and hippoi-
drarueie arena,' gave two performances here oh Sritur,
day. It was announced that " Wallett. the Queen's
jester," would appear, but, though he figured in the
procession around the town, he did not enter the
arena, but left the town in the afternoon en /ants, we
have reason to believe, for Nottingham. The per-
formances were very indifferent, and the audiences
were appropriately sinalL

Tax interm-nt of the mortal remains of the late
Captain May, brother of tfie ebitemed curate of Ailing-
ton, who died recently at Weymouth (as noticed in our
last week's journal), took place at Allington Church on
Friday morning. The deceased gentleman was brought
from Weymouth by the first traWto Bridport. A con-
iderahle number of the inhabitants of Biiiport and
Allington were awaiting the nail arrival, and, on the
coffin being placed in tue hearse, they preceded it on
the route to Allington Church. The hearse w..e fol-
lowed by two mourning coaches, eorrtaining relativee
and friends of the deceived. After the deeply-impres-
sive Burial Service in the church, the body of the late
lamented captain was oarried out to the churchyard and
committed to the dust, lie was a genblernan who,
during his residence here, made many friends; and he
will long be remembered by the poor parish,oners of
Allington for his kindly demeanour towards them, and
his earneat efforts to render as pleasant as might be
their lot.

Ws perceive by a letter from the Morning Bera/d's
"Own! (Jortespor.dent",at Sheffield, that the Rev. J.
'lnertia Short is see of the local semmtaries in connection
with the annual congress in that town of the National
Ai.s,ciat ion for the Promotion of Social science. From
the opening remarks of the aforesaid oorrespondent, it
would appear that the rev. gentleman, whose anxieties
respecting the tlapit al state ,if aritiport, not long ago,
are well known, has taken up his abode in a City where
there is yet greater need for the effOrts of SOcial re-
formers. He says:—" It is St that the Association
should hold a meeting at Sheffield at this time, seeing
that her Majesty's cominilaioners have only recently
reported on one of the most important of social questions,
and that somewhat adversely to the mannfacturi sof
and near Sheffield. If circumstances exist which reduce
human life to an average of something between thirty
and forty years in any particular district, surely that is
a place where social science will find silmethitig to do;
hilt thie is not all. Somehody has said sothilthing about
somebody else consuming his own smoke. That some-
body number one has apparently lost sight of Sheffield.
Even poor Elliot', the corn-law poet (not in the flesh.
but in monumental glory), seems to sit uneasily on the
most uncomfortable of piles of stones, surmounting the
squarest of pedestals, with the plainest of inscriptions,
black, grimy, and dirty, looking down a gateway at
nothing ; seeming to say, Why not get rid of the
smoke, or provide me with the ordinary means of clean-
linens I But he is not without sympathisers, for as
• Elliot' appears out in the front uf the pedestal and
inpsinted red, so on its side has some commiserating
individual written ' Black' in red chalk, and black
Indeed is Elliott,"
