WAREHAM V. DORCHESTER.

The gallant volunteers of the plucky little town of
Warebian recently sent a challenge to the 3rd for a
friendly match at the Butts-10 men each side- It la
needless to say it was promptly accepted, and the
firing took place on Tuesday last at the rang.. at
Maiden Cantle. The contests between there two
coqw have taken place at irregular intervals since 1862,
and in the matches shot since then Wareham has won
6, and Dorchester, including the present, 4. The
victory 1,1 Tuesday for the I iorchester, aa will be seen,
was very decisive, and although Wareham was said
not to be quite so strong silt might have been, yet the
same may be said of the Dorehesiter—Quartermaster-
Sergeant Crces, one of the crack shots, being away on
his holidays. Seven round. were fired at 200, 500,
and GOO yards. Sergeant ()emend made the higt eat
score of the day, for the Dorchester, 83. followed by
Sergeant Rogers with 78, while Quartermaster
Churchill put together 67 for Wareham. The officers
of the 3ril afterwards entertained the competitors at
luncheon, iltwly served by Mrs. Dunn. of the Junction
Hotel, and the greatest cordiality edited. The follow-
ing are the scores :
