A BRIGHT LOGGICIL—At the County Police Court,
Wednesday, before Colonel Bingham— Willies; 13e my,
at present working for Mews Bull, at the new farm
at Sincombe, was brought up in custody
charged with damaging a door, the property of Leonard
Kellam/ay. From the evidence of Mr. Kellaway, a
labourer in the employ of Mr. Cake, of Binoombe, it
appeared that on the let of September, the prisoner
came to his house and begged his wife to let him lodge
there as he was bricklaying at the new farm buildings,
and after some persuadon they consented to take him
in. He went to work on the first day of commencing
his lodgings, but came home drunk, and abused Kens-
way's wife, and this continued nearly every night for
a week until Sunday last. Mr. Kellaway uttered a
mild remonstrance, saying he did not swear at his
wife and children himself, and would not allow any.
one else to do so, and that Mr. Berry must leave nest
day, and that gentlanan not Ww satisfied with
MU summary took up his knife and
threatened to do for the speaker. On the Monday
morning the prisoner went out, the Kellaways went
to bed at night, and locked their premises up; but

REGATTA.
The first and what we trust may now prove the
Annual Regatta took place in the pictw,, sal
secluded Cove of Lulworth on Thuraday lag; m the
presence of a large and fashionable gathering 4
visitors, anlat whom we noticed the ex-.9ecretary
to the Admiralty, Lord Clarence Paget, and ratty . A
mumber of yacht" were observed in the eg
ng
striving to work up from Weymouth and Porthad
Roads' but unfortunately the strength of the ebb tide
precluded several of the larger craft from arriving in
time to take part in the races for which the, were
enter ed. Had it been otherwise, the number iilveswil
contending for the sailing prizes would have ben
largely increased.
The weather was unusually propitious, &Meech
there was scarcely a sufficient force of wind. However,
taken as a whole the racing was far above the
avfe to the exertions of the mute, sad
indefatigable Ron. Secretary, Captain Gilino:7ll.N,
aided by his übiquitous tient, lir. Yen, R.N., and
committee, a lengthy pmgramme was successfully
carried out, ',fronting a day of public pleasure *ad
amusement, such as has never before been experienced
in this romantic hamlet. The pmceedings teamastet
at a late hour, amidst general and loudly reproved
satisfaction, by an illumination of the Give, which
displayed in variegated colours the beauties and straoce
geological formations of this, one of the most lovely
spots on the South Comet of England.
The pyrotechnical display from the flagstaf battery
of Fort Nelson and the Eastern Point was carried out
under the direction of the well known firm of Main
BrOCk&CO.,of...Rrytital P. alace renown.

THE LATE (X)NBERVATIVI NESTING.
To the Ifetitor f the" Pooh reierssi."

Sir,—! have been considerably entertaused by reading
an account of a meeting of the "Pools Conservative
Areocintion" on Tuesday last, held to welcome Mr. Charles
I richriaber as the coining Conservative candidate at the
: next emend election. I hays looked through the reported
speeches of the various apeakere to me if I could find any
reason why electors should record their votes for Mr.
Mchrieber in preference to Mr. Waring, the Liberal aura,
data. I expected to find an exposiMon of Conservative
principles, as they are called. I had, therefore, cacao ly
prepared myself to consider what might have been said
respecting the allobsorbing foreign policy of the present
Government. and what might have been adduced in favour
of their domestic legislation ; but in respect of these
importruit matters I have been sadly disappointed. There
was not even one solitary reference to that glorious leader
of the party, the Sari of Besconsfield ; not an allusion to
all Uwe!, coppers subscribed by the workingdnen of
England to crown the " man whom the reople delight to
honour ; "not even the faintest odour of the results of
" unites sanit•tum"—the nearest approach to • political
expression baying been a travesty of • phrase long laDe•
laid by as inapplicable to the situation— " Poole with
honour." Haynie discovered in the last paragraph of the
report this electioneering warcry, I proceeded to begin
my study of the speeches once more, to discover, if haply
I might, the MOS= liy which " honour " was to be con-
joined to" Poole" The speech of the highly respectable
chairman, at any rate, did not enlighten me by one
scintillation of this effulgent ray. The pooderosity of the
Parkstone magistrate gave me no inkling of how the happy
conjunction was to be effected. The worthy magnate
seems to have raised himself on the stilts of virtuous
indignation, and given vent to an explosion of righteous
wrath over the devoted heeded these misguided wretches,
the Poole Liberals. A few words having reference to
" Our glorious constitution in Church and State," and Mr.
Pearce collapsed. Neither the geniality of Mr. C 11111,
nor the "legal acumen" of Mr. Lionel Budge shed any
lustre on the method by which we Poor Imo& 'Wight
aspire to the regions of " sweetness and light." I was fain
drive, to the speech of Mr. &Wisher alone for the info!,
'nation I required; and after devoting much attention to
his fluent harangue. I found something about Kissingen, ,
more about himself, but mart of all about Sir Ivor Guest.
It then appears that "Poole with honour" means Mr.
tichrieber, " or—mat the fates forefend—the " ADA
and irrevocable separation of Canford's lord from the
poor deluded people of Poole What can this meant At
first I thought that perhaps it might be Sir Isor's Inten-
tion not to take • farthing of rent in future from the I
wicked tenantry who won't vote blue; not to soil his hands
with dirty pelf proceeding from such a polluted source;
but I am afraid that will net be the interpretation at the
"final," etc- What then can it be I Does it mean no
more game in the proper season; no more coals to the
Indigent; no more cheques for the relief of the distressed
fishermen ! if so, how oan we expect to exist much longer
In this unhappy stats I Perhaps you, Mr. Editor, can give
us some crumbs of comfort for our consolation, as, should
the direful catastrophe befall us which appears to be
Impending, we shall be driven to our political wit.' end,
our very municipal and parliamentary existence will be a
burden to us, and we shall have to go on our benighted
way as I:4lai we can, and—es oft here done be/m.
Yours, etc.
GiErr.
