Tl4l NELSON INN.

Mr. Superloten:Zt—f; -lieri--;sairl that oboe the
last meeting the brewers had changed the tenant, and
lan application would be made for the transfer of the
license from John Daniell* to Mr. Roberta. He had
made enquiries as to character, and the replies were
very satisfactory.
Certificate, of character had been rec)ived from
00 less than three Supwintendents of Police.—The
characters were hao•led to the Bench, and were from
Superintendent Waters, Hingeolere ; Deputy-Chief
Constable Stephenson. Aldershot; Superintendent
Paine, Alton • Mr. H. C. Harrill, 000301iAlioner of
the Metropollien Police ; the Mini.ters an I Church-

The Mayor mid his characters were 6r4-rate, and the
Synch hoped he would so conduct the boom as to
keep up the good character be bad brought with him.
The how. hat not hitherto borne a god name, and
the license bad been kept back in order that the
tenancy might be changed. They therefore hoped
that the change would effect good, and that the
business would be conducted with credit to himself
and to their satisfaction.
THS 71SHISHIN.8 AMIS.
Mr Howard Bowen, appearing on behalf of Mr.
Talbot, applied for the renewal of this license. His
client hal occupied the house 23 years, and there had
never been any previous complaint. He might explain
the house wan in a very humble neighbourhood, and
Mr. Talbot was in the habit of taking in lodger., and
wee not aware of the character of the persons of whom
Mr. Vickery complained. He had since explained the
matter to the superintendent, and, under the circum-
stance., Mr. Vickery bad withdrawn his opposition.
Mr. Supt. Vickery said that the object he had in
view was to separate the two cis,ees of hawkers and
professional vagrants, asi if Mr. Talbot took in the
I latter the police woul I have no c ,ntrol over them.
I They had power to go into common I°,lol g houses,
but in publi how, they ha I n 4.
The Bench then granted the application, having first

great • favourite with all olswees--eepecially with the

cessor. In Mr. Guest, however, members of the Bout
have undoubtedly bit upon the right man.

Tbe Corporation of Berwick have just Met tEree of

Chairman, the Rev. It. Sweeten, and other friends

AOCIDIN? IN MIL Qoasaiwt—A. sad accident betel
an olde.ly man, named Samuel Pearce, in the quarries
at Button on Monday evening. It appears that he
was standing on the top, and, overbalancing himself,
tumbled over into the based's,' bole, between 20 and
30 feet. lie got up and walked home, and even took
his boot off, when he fainted. He was carried up-
etairs, and a doctor sent for. Dr. McLean was soon
there, and found that he had broken two ribe and
injured his left arm and shoulder; in addition to this
It waa found that the broken ribs penetrated his lungs.
There is no hope of his recovery, as his age is 68.

were to cause fatal or other injuries to several of the
crew. As the Sultan took a very prominent part in
the action, and many of her crew belong to Ports-
mouth. there is • dead led appropriateness in so interest-
ing • memento being publicly exhibited at this port,
and the gift hat been accepted with thanks. Some
I diversity of opinion exists as to where the relic, for
which C memander Curzon-Howe has generously offered to provide • granito base, shall be erected.
Roth &titian& Beach and the space fronting the
Public Library at Lan !port have been suggested, and
virtually negatived; and the metier is now and*, con-

WIKBORNS.

AOCMENTS.-00 Monday, about midday, as several
children were on their way home from school, when
close to East Brook Bridge, one of them, • little
fellow, named Martin, was in the act of crossing the
road to obtain an apple from one of the others, and,
in so doing, was run over and knocked down by a
horse and car, the property of Mr. F. J. Huntly, Toe
Square. Mr. Gook, outfitter, of East Brook, saw the
unfortunate occurrence, and ran t, the rescue of the
child, who had been trampled on by the horse, and
slightly bruised by one of the wheels. The little
sufferer warn shortly after conveyed to his home near
the Railway Station, where he was without delay
placed under medical treatment. We hear the little
sufferer is progressing favourably.—ln the evening of
the same day, about seven o'clock, • most serious
calamity halal six Mlle Volunteers, mounted with
the Wimborne detachment of the B Company, let
Dorset Battalion, who were returning from their rifle
range, situate on Badbary Down, after a most success-
ful day's prize competition. It appears that as
Sergeant Wallingford. with Privates Fizzle,
Batty, C. Elmes, and Bari ,w, were carefully proceed-
ing homewards in • covered waggonette, with Private
Barlow in charge of the horse, the bolt of one of the
shafts came out just as they were descending the
incline 21 miles from Wimborne. The horse feeling
something unusual behind it became frightened and
immansueable, bolting off at • terrible speed, causing
Prirati Barlow to fall from his seat. In his endeavour
to secure the reins he somewhat lacerated his
right hand, having it dragged on the roadway, 1111 i
at the some time both wheels passed over his riAt
foot and left hip, Private Batty ender., .ur d t., jo
his utmost to secure the horse, but just at this, juncture
the vehicle capsized, precipitating the whole of its
occupants into the roadway, and become nearly • total
wreck. Three out of the four glass lights were oorn•
pletely smashed, and the head part became detatched
with the fall. The horse kept up Its speed for s
distance, with the wheels and a portion of the
waggonette, until secured by • person who hap:,ened
to be passing at the time, by the New L idge at
Kingston Lacy. He then conveyed the animal, which
wan n as,rry plight, toil. owner, Mr. J. Miles, of the
Crown Hotel, who, having heard what had happened,
sent • horse and van to convey home the wreckage.
The six volunteers proaeed•dhomewsrd on foot as best
they coull. Private Batty sustained the greatest
injuries, he being elated beside the driver, and when
thrown out the head of the conveyance must have
come into callisieo with him, as he is 'severely cut
with fragments of glees, ilta Serge Wallingford had
a very narrow escape, for in his attempt to alight from
behind he was most violently pitched out, head fore.
most. Privates Elmes, Frizzle, and 0. Blum luckily
suffered less ly. We hear Privates Barlow and
Batty are progrering as favourably as can be expected
under the circumstances'.

Crititet.
FAIR IIuWI,ING.

The question of throwing verses fair bowling very
naturally vexes the souls .4 cricketers more and more.
Various means are suggested for unravelling the knot,
• very original idea being to legalise throwing. If
this became law, then every eleven would contain
eleven bowlers, and what little practice is given to
that department of the g .me would came altogether.
There being no doubt in the minds of cricketers
that throwing is very freely in 'Mimi in by men milling
themselves bowlers, and it being also evident that
professional umpires will u it take upon themselves to
suddenly stop the career of their companions in arms
by no-balling them—for that would bs the result of
their action—it behoves players themselves to take the
matter earnestly au band. This can be done effectively
in one way only, sod that is by refusing to play against
such eleven. as persist in incorporating unfair bowlers.
Let counties whose bowlers are fair tske a firm and
dignified stand against much as enlist the services of the
throwers, and the matter will soon end. Professional
micke,ers are perhaps hone.t enough for their calling ;
but expiirienced amateurs should know them better
than to put upon them the onus of blackballing one of
their number. Such a task is • most ungenerous
inS ict ion.

Of course, the chief t spin of c invereation In the
t swn during the peat week has been the stabbing
aff ay, which took plac3 on Saturdsv night. A few
days ago 50 per cent, of the Po dike would have
executed Lynch-law up in the unf lomat , boy, who
etsnd charged with killing the man Jams. A little
reflection has, however, somewhat modified the feeling
in the matter, and it is acknowle Ism', even by the
friends of the deceased, that the foreigners ware "put

necessary to ask those who are " dead' against the
; Danes t pot themselves in their plan ,—in a foreign
land, and with nine ts two against them—to have It
I admitted that, however unjustifiable the use of the
I knife my be, in this ewe there was some slight excuse
font.

. .
I believe, however, the faot is thst the affair arose
out of an old grievance, which has been felt against the
older seaman for pretty nearly the laq 12 months. I
can't go into particulars, but the woman with whom
the dead men James kept company we. no doubt the
(muse of it. Threats, lam tol J, bad been held out
against Christensen, and the younger of the two,
knowing thie, had provided himself with the knife
before cawing on sh we on the night in question.

The evidsoce, as will by seen, shows throughout
that had the Danes not been molested nothing would
have oucurred, and Outheridge who was deservedly
hissed on leaving the Coroner's Court on Monday, was
undoubtedly the cause of the row.

It should not be forgotteo that Poole Retell cannot
boast of any very great morality as to crimes of this
description. At the last glarter liesdonr, it will be
remembered,a young lad had to take his trial for using
a knife, and it then was conclusively proved that had
It not been for what WM almo.t a mere accidect, be
would have had to take his trial for murder. it is
therefore nothing more or lola than there hypochrisy
for people in Poole to declaim against the use of the
knife by other nation., and toJesnitically cast up their
eyes to heaven and thank God they are not Ili other
men are.
