that madness was a mineral, and perhaps • Dorchester

you know what animal I take a Dorchester magistrate

DORSETSHIRE MAGISTRATES.

2'o the Editor.

Dorchester, 4th February, 1865.
MY DXAR SIR, —Our old friend Punch having
fallen into a alight error in ridiculing a decision of
one of the " great unpaid," the public are led to
believe that the absurdity emanated from one of our
Borough Magistrates. I must therefore beg of you
to reprint the letter, and state that the decision
was given by a County Magistrate, Rho does not
even reside within the borough of Dorchester.
I don't think such a bridge as the Pam Aseinorum
can possibly be found in Dorchester, unless it alludes
to the bridge of a County Magistrate's nose, which
may possibly account for his not being able to see
beyond it.—l remain, yours truly,

ONE WHO KNOWS NOTHING.
[We are not surprised at anything that happens
relative to our county business, for if two or three of
a firm are allowed to take the reins—some of them,
perhaps unknown in the county, and possibly
without the necessary qualifications for the office,
such as being landed proprietors in the county, and
in every way fitted for the responsible position—we
cannot expect but that our county will be laughed
at ; and although Mr. Punch may have selected a
qualified magistrate this time, and erred between
DOorsot and Dorchester, we can excuse him, knowing
well that there is plenty of room for Mr. Punch,
who could easily fill the whole of his pages if he
would but watch the decisions and look into our
county expenditure.—Enrroit.]

THE ACCLIMATIZATION SOCIETY AND THE
FIELD.

To eke Editor.

Sirt—lt will be in the recollection of your readers,
that not very long ago I published the fact of feeling
myself constrained to cease from belonging to "The
Acclimatization Society as its vice•president," and also
to discontinue the aid of my pen to the Field news-
paper.
The grounds on which I did both were fairly and
publicly stated, and I protested against Mr. Francis
Francis's nomination to the place of Fishbatcher, instead
of Mr. Buckland, whom I deemed most fitted to carry
out those experiments to success. _

_
It may alike: be remembered that on my thus finding
fault, Mr. Buckland, though in private to me, protesting
against the appointment of Mr. Francis Francis, wrote
a letter in the Field—his public act totally at variance
with his private one—which constrained me to prove
that behind the curtain and before it, Mr. Buckland
most certainly appeared in two characters.
It needs no further remark from me to show that
"The Acclimatization Society" has fallen beyond
redemption, and that Mr. Francis Francia was not the
person to be thrown into a position, of which he
really knew los than the man in the moon.
should be very curious to see, since the withdrawal
of my name, the account of how the funds of the
society had been dealt with; what attempts had been
made to import useful things ; what had been
expended on the private premises; and on the pleasure-
able travel of persomi desirous only of amusing them-
selves.

0 LOVE THE LITTLE CHILDREN.

0 love the little children I they are eot like to you,
Bat simple, trustful spirits, that the angels whisper to:
They have not learnt the world at all, they have not felt
its cares,
And not a doubt that God can hear, lui mingled with
their prayers.

I think it so bewitching the little face to see,
Bent on some sportive purpose that it will not tell to

ma;
And then the sudden changes, the gathering-in of
thought,
When the little heart repeats to God the prayer it has
been taught
0 love the little children, for them our Saviour bled;
"Suffer the little children to come to me," He said,
" Of such is God's own kingdom," we can fancy how he
smiled,
When He put His hands upon them, and bleated each
little child.

We can see those Eastern children beneath their own
bright skies,
Look up to the kind Saviour with their full, dark-
curtained eyes ;
And while Ile speaks those pleasant words, we think we
hear the prayer,
" Oh may we go to heaven with Thee, and see the
children there I"
In the Bible, blessed Saviour,:we read,Thon lov'st them
well ;
But more than human heart can feel, or human tongue

, .
can tell.
Teach all the world to love them too, for Thou haat said

,
that we
Must be like the little children if we would come to
Thee 1

LOOKING UPWARDS. -He who seldom thinks of
heaven is not likely to get there ; as the way to hit a
mark is to keep your eye fined upon it.—Bp. Herat.
MARDIAGY. A casket into which the husband
casts the real gems of manly protection and proud love,
whilst the precious jewels of trust and tenderness are
added by the wife.—rAnow.

CONTIENTURNT.—Nature is content with little, grace
with less, sin with nothing.—Brooks.
CARES. Ills that never happened have chiefly
made men wretched.—Tupper.
DIFFICULTIES.—Men may judge us by the success
of our efforts. God looks at the efforts themselves.—
Charlotte Elizabeth.

TRUE PRAYER. - Prayer is not eloquence, but
earnestness ; not the definition of helplessness, but the
feeling of it; not figures of speech, but compunction of
soul.—Hannah More.
_

WHAT I AM.—We are really what we are rela-
tively.—P. Henry.
PROVIDENCE. My life hangs by a single thread,
but that thread is in a Father's hand.—J. H. Evans

Tiarmte.—Trilles lighter than straws are levers in
the building up of character. —Tupper.
Little things should not be despised; many threads
united will bind an elephant.—Anon.
THE AGE OF IMPRESSIONS. Observe, how very
quick the child's eye is, in the passive age of infancy,
to catch impressions and receive the meaning of looks,
voices, and motions. It peruses all faces, colours, and
sounds. Every sentiment that looks into its eyee, looks
back out of its eyes, and plays in miniature on its
countenance. The tear that sisals down the cheek of a
mother's suppre•aed grief gathers the little infantile
face into a responsive sob. With a kind of wondering
silence, it studies the mother in her prayer; and looks
up piously with her in that exploring watch that signifies
nnspoken prayer. If the child is handled fretfully,
scolded, jerked, or simply laid aside, not affectionately,
in no warmth of motherly gentleness, it feels the sting
of just that which is felt towards it; and so it is angered
by anger, irritated by irritation, fretted by fretfulness;
having thus impressed upon it just that kind of im-
patience or ill-nature which is felt towards it, and grow-
ing faithfully into the bad mould as by a fixed law.
There is great importance in manner, even in handling
infancy. If it is unchristian, it will beget unchristian
states or impressions. If it is gentle, even, patient,
and loving, it prepares a mood and temper like its own.
There is scarcely room to doubt that all most crabbed.
hateful, resentful, passionate, ill-natured characters—
all most even, lovely, firm, and true ones—are prepared
in a great degree by the handling of the nursery. To
these, and all such modes of treatment and feeling
as make up the element of the infant's life, it is passive
as wax to the seal. How important, then, the first
chapter in a child's life—the age of impressions.—Mrs.
Sewell.

BIND FRIENDS AND WELL-WISHERS—I thank you
for the candid and straightforward manner in which you
have addressed me.
Al I know of nothing to prevent my appearance in
public, or transaction of business in person, I hasten to
assure you that the disparaging rumours to which you
refer —the origin of which it is not difficult to trace—
are invented and circulated for a purpose which will
ahortly be confuted.
Lady-day having all alrng been mentioned as the date
of my embarking on a new undertaking, I confess I
hove not, like some, been eager to precipitate events;
yet, should you kindly grant me the opportunity, I am
quite prepared, at Dorchester and Weymouth both, to
meet and convinee you that I am ready for action.
Meantime it may suffice if I remind you that I have
recently made many public appearances, having,
amongst other things,
Lectured for three weeks running at Ciren-
cester College;
Opened the lecture session at the Weymouth Insti-
tute;
Lectured before the Literary and Musical Institu-
tion at Shroton ;
Opened two agricultural discussions in succes-
sive weeks at Bridport ;
And attended several public dinners.
I have, in fact, responded to every oall that has-been
made upon me, and am to appear on the 14th inst.
before the Institute at Frome, besides having engaged
to give my leoture on " Carols" at an early date at
Sherborne.
