LANGTON MATRAVEIRS.

IMPORTANT TURNPIKE C.lB.—Mx. Henry Spicer, a
farmer of Langton Matravers, was on Tuesday sum.
mooed before the Wareham petty sessions for having,
on the 12th September, at Moreton, in the parish of
Swanage, allowed his waggon to travel on the turnpike
road, and to be there driven by one Thomas Barge, who
was then under 13 years of age, contrary to the statute
of 3 Geo. IV. sap. 126, See 131, whereby be had
rendeted himself liable to a penalty of not exceeding
10s.—Mr. Lacey appeared for the defendant, and said
that he would acknowledge that the fact of the case es
stated in the summons, namely, that the boy who was
driving the waggon was under 13 years of age. He,
however, submitted that the waggon could not be said
to have been in the boy's custody, there being a
waggoner, riding on the front of the waggon, who had
the management of the team. It was usual with
farmers, sending their teams on roads, to send with them
the carter and a boy, who acted as mate, who usually
drove portion of the way when the waggon was not
laden. But surely it could not be said, because the boy
occsaionally took the whip that the team was entrusted
to his care, the carter being himself all the time present.
It would be a great hardship to farmers if they were
precluded employing boys, under 13 years of age, to go
with their teams. The Bench said that farmers should
be very careful with whom they entrusted their teams on
the road. As in this, case, however, the carter was
present, they hardly considered that there was • clear
infringement of the law, and the summons would,
accordingly, be dismissed.

TAVISTOOK BACZEI AND STILEPLE CRAlllB.—Tliese
sports, alter eight years' cessation were revived on
Tues3ay on Whitoi.urch Down, with snooess sufficient
to justify the belief that they will be re-established.
There was first a pony race, then a hack race, but the
event of the day was the West Devon Steeple Chase.
Mr. Daily's Yeller Gal (aged) won, although her owner
mistook a fence and had to jump again, when Lady in
Red was within an ace of winning. Indeed, Yeller
Gal Mlle in only by hat a length. The Hunters'

Mr. Flex's Little Fairy.

ART Ent.teetto•.—Mr. Tp,m Taylor prodded at
the annual meeting of the York &boa of Art, on
Wednesday night, and in the course of his speech,
remarked that no young man or woman amid be
said to have completed his or her education, until
they bad availed themselves of the teaching of •
school of art. Perini* we should never make an
artistic nation, but we should certainly never have
a chance of becoming one, until the work of schools
like that had been going on for more than one gene.
ration. To some, the hope that Eugland was ever
to be an artistic nation might seem to be utopian.
He could not himself think so. The powers that
made the England of Alfred and Edward, of Henry
and Elitabeth, of Cromwell and William what it
waft, were still living in tie. Some of them might be
latent, some were in full swing. Some of our
national faculties and tendencies might he adverie
to art, our political and business faculties perhaps
Were hot favourable to it, our Puritanical tendencies
were diferitly Opporied to it, but among our national
powers most certalely lay the artistic.

James Williams proposed and Mr. C. Newberry
seconded, that the retiring auditors, Messrs. James

was carried unanimously. The election of members
of the Board was then proceeded with. The chair-
man having stated that the retiring members were
Messrs. J. Bartlett, T. Beach, and John Dunham, and
that they wefe eligible for re-election, Mr. Bartlett
was reelected without opposition. Mr: Beach was
then proposed And seconded, when Mr. H. N. Dos
said that altiittogli he had no objection to Mr. Beach
personally, still, as be was no longer a parishioner.
and this was* purely paroobial appointment, heal:1001A
move as an amendment that Mr. Henry Howell tea
member of the Board. Some discussion having
taken place, in which Mr. James Williams and
other parishioners urged the reappointment of Mr.
Beach on the ground that, although no longer a
parishioner, he was eligible vs a ratepayer, and was
a gentleman whose services at the Board had been
valuable, Mr. Cox withdrew his amendment, and
Mr. Beacti was reelected: Two eandidatee were
proposed for the remaining vadancy—Mr. Dunhath
and Mr. Bridle. The show of hands was in favour
of Mr. Dunham.

Bass AND. FRUIT. —With reference to the para.
graph from Mr. Bennett, of Osberton, Notts, which
we lately re:pttblished, Mr; D. Uphill, of Moreton
gardens, writing to the Oat,deettra' Chronicle say
Like Mr. Bennett, t have this &wasn't hben much
angoyed by bees, which have been almost ti
destructive to fruit as wasps were last year. With
us they began with gooaebeiries, of which they
entirely destroyed several large bushes, and they
have attacked all other fruits as fast as they have
ripened. I have never been similarly annoyed,
though there have always been many bees kept in
the neikhbourhood ; and I have lived in places where
they have been kept in the garden, but I have no
recollection of fruit being h..rt to any extent by
them. We have had no wasps here until within the
last few days, when a few weakly ones have
appeared. Flies have been very numerous, and they
have also been very destructive to the fruits"

but they are not generally of long duration • and we
are addressing invalids when we say, seriously, 'try

is now no actual close of the Weymouth season.

mouth: This is, howeger, more in appear-
ance thin in reality. Trees don't grow on our
csplahade, bat we have always advocated the intro-
cliidtion of the minutia, as seen waving green in the
ripacioua aquifer: of Brighton opening on the sea.
Thar, too, is an appearafiee ratchet than • teality:
The indefatigalile Mr. Hawkins, of the Royal Glou-
cester Nurseries, comes forward, howeger, with •
proposition which meets the entire difficulty, and
if judiciously encouraged may be the means of ex-
tending the Weymouth season over all the four—
Spring, Sifunmer, Autumn, and Winter. For leas we
believe, than £2,00Y. Mr, Hawkins can provide
We; mouth with a grand range of Floral Halls,
Winter Gardens, Sheltered Promenadee, or what-
ever else we may choose to call them, superadding at
the earns time as glue will do a splendid ornamental
feature to the only unfinished point of that magnifi-
cent sweep of the eye which our Crescent hey afford,.
His plan, which is beautifully executed in order to
be submitted to the Town Council, pr./sent& two
ranges of handsome glass structures—one running
along the carve facing the esplanade, the other at
right angles to it, enraging the Rings in the direction ,
of Crescent-place; whilst the vacant out-door spaces
of the present unseearly *este within the Rings,
will be embellished with all the graces of landscape
gardening. We trust that all interested in the pros. I
perity of Weymouth will jump at this new notion,
and come down at once with their dust in its support.
The immense extent of the accommodation thus sup-
plied, the numerous purposes useful and ornamental I
to which it can at all times and in all weathers be
directed, and the great and absolute drawback to
wintering in Weymouth, which it removes, are
benefits which bear no proportion to the cost, and
Mr. Hawkins says the improvement can be carried
out before Spring. May it be so!

The anglishman'e everlasting topic, the weather!
Well, as the exigencies of my occupation have prevented
me from refreshing myself much with the 000 l breezes
of the sea-shore, you must permit me to
exprees the gratification that I. and a lot of poor
scribble's like me, experience at the change to some-
thing like a seasonable temperature. It may be • herald
of corning winter, but we don't mind that; for London
is really more endurable for moat people in a winter like
the last (of which one can seerorly anticipate a speedy
repetition) than in the broilieg heat of the few first
weeks of this eccentric September weather. Although
we have now something like autumn weather though,
we still derive one advantage from the last severe
and late winter. Vegetation is lasting further
into the year, and our parks, divested of
fashionable gaiety, are yet gay io green leaves and
flowers for the delectation of myriads who never see the
country. The recent rain has washed off the London
dust, and given mach of the freehneei of early summer
fur the time, though a brown lei? hero and therein ones
path proelaims this time must be short. But In regard
to cool (I will not say cold) weather, there is one decided
advantage for us Londoners, we can now go to •
theatrical or other performance without subjecting our.
selves to an impromptu Turkish bath.

It is somewhat remarkable that, while people are
talking of the Premier suffering from the gout, a
former Premier, Lord Derby, is also laid up with it.
Gout seems specially inimical to our leading politicians,
and sometimes three or four of them have succumbed
together. But Lord Brougham seems to be free alike
from gout and all the other ills that mortal flesh is heir
to. He has just eomplet.d his 87th year, and is in
excellent hsslth. What a wonderful history has his
been for fifty or sixty years!
