LORD DC/NDREARY VgIMUS THE DOR-
CHESTER RATEPAYERS ACTION FOR
DAMAGES TO MRS. GRUNDY.

DZAW Mmt•w Etirraw.—When I thaw in the
maw that my mothaw-in-law,deawMithith Gwundy,
wath in bed from a cold aw chill bwought on by the
obthinacy of the Dawchetlitaw Cawpowatioa, I
left the Empewaw of the Ewan*, and went to
Weymouth, and found posh dear Mithith Owundy
with one leg quite oontweoted, and all the
phythicienth of the day they that it ith owing to
dancing on the wong fioaw of yoaw Townliall. I
Intend to bwing an action againth the bowough faw
go* and if draw Mithith ()weedy girth
a verdict for only a few thouthandth it will
be IlwatifYing to dithwethed pothtewity. Now
dear Mathew Editaw, I know you will help me to
pt up the evidence aw the oath, tho I will pot
what I want to know in the farm of widdlea faw
you and yoaw weedare to anthwaw.
Widdle Noinhaw One—lf the fioaw of the hall
wath lit faw the County Ball why wath the lath.
niongsw (awe the *thaw man who thelth bwadth)
weluthed the hall faw the ball in honaw of the
military?
The next widdle ith—lf the eounty people paid
law the ball, what became of the money? And
inthide of thith widdle I thee anothaw
widdle. When the Militia had the ball in
May lab for a hall aftaw the bweakbth,
twee gwatith for nothing, how wath it the wate-
payarth knew nothing of the cswpowation giving
away the fee which belonged to the watepayawth ?
And if the public did not like the Council to give the
Militia the fee, how long will it be—now Lewd
Duedweawy bare eke the out onto( the bag—bekaw
the public will make the Council pay the fee out of
theaw own pocketh
Now faw Widdle Numbaw Five.—lf the wets-
payawth know nothing of the money weeeived, aw
what ought to be weceived, why don t they demand
an account and why don't they uthe the theme
thence few the geethe ath the gandawth ?
Widdl• Seven ith—lf the clockmakew ith going to
bwing an action few the money few the clock,
will that put an end to Johnny going upon tick?
And in with of • delicitincy,wliich will take pwiowity,
Mithith Owundylb claim, aw bow othawithe ?
Widdle Eight —lf the ciewpowation pay all the
watepayath money away for • MOT On, how will
they be able to pay the earth of the action —Owundy
a. Daurch•thtaw and again Dawcisethtew v.
Hattori, and another, Holland v. The Bobby? And
what will the public they when they have to pay
Law all the tomfoolawy ?
Widdle Nine I think we have come to, which ith,
if the Commanding Officaw of the A Battawy of
Awtillawy wanted to know of the Meyaw if
be would have the big guns got weedy to
bag at the little hoyth who play with imageth,
why didn't the Cowpowation have a gun aw
two put on the top of the clock towaw (The
peach°. they have had with the long bow would
have helped tin m mark well.) I have gone fwom
the point, but I awn% help it. What would
Mithitti G woody they if well enough to wite to you?
Penner thaw, yoth he thaw the image on flaw
banging in chain, and thinking tvrath ith mawthtaw,
he cut him down, and Dootaw Rwown declaiawed life
to be ecthtinct ; and Penney thought he thaw hith
ma•tawth's ghotht claw thieve. The widdle I
would aihk ith—lf Doctaw Bwown and Doctaw
Carrillo voluacewed to help Dootaw Mayaw, how
wath it that only one Maar with pwethent at the
hanging and beaming on Monday night? Now, deavr
Ilithiaw Ileditaw, I find that the moaw addle. I
atbk the maw I • ant. I know I twouble you, and
in twying to impwove the dreadful meth Dew-
chethtaw ith now in, ith not much leth difficult than
to wath Ductaw Brown any °thaw ooloaw than
black.

One moaw waddle, and adieu till next week. If
Mithtaw Boon thaw anybody killing the Town
Clawk, and would not Fiwevent it if he could, what
powaw-- what imowaw I tbay—woold keep Mitbaw
Boon fwom killing anybody who would hurt Mithith
I. wundy 1. .

(We are almost weeklyer:fled— upon to give up a
a portion of our valuable space for the purpose of
*hewing what the public think of the " powers that
be" in Dorchester, and we feel that we ourselves must
take the matter in hand if things do not promise
better. We shall be very sorry to have to apply the
lash, by wielding our pen on the part of the ratepayers,
but we will Dever flinch from our duty. Our past
silence on the subject must not be taken as consent,
and we trust that this gentle warning may have the
doeired effect. The wasteful expenditure of the
Borough funda, and oonsequent enormous increase in
the rates, shows that " the force of folly" can no
further go.--11nrro R.

W YMOUT FI .—A somewhat lengthy poem,
entitled " Heaven," Au been forwarded to us for
revision. It is written by a young lad, named W.
Kellaway, aged 16 yearn. an apprentice at Messrs.
Jeffreys' printing estabh.bment of thi. town and for
one so young in years, the production is very creditable,
owl reflects great credit on the author, who evinces
promise of
.„much .talent.
