THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

Dorchester, unlike Bade and other places. does not
convert its Municipal Election into a question ;;f
politics. It sensibly reflect-, that to carry out the
improvements of the town a man needs brains, and not
that he should Is a either blue or yellow—although,
pee-ibly, it is rather inclined more evpectantly to look
for that commodity in the latter. On the present occasion
there was but very little en :Bement manifested in it,
the only struggle bein4 for the Tory-print-paraded
official-annihilation ; d a retiring member, who, durinz
his term of office, refused to listen to clam. ur. The
result, as we have shown elxwhere, was a siznal failure
for the Mal-contents. Two fresh members have been
returned, and we trust all parties will now rest and be
thankful.
The Mayor w:u; the returning officer, assisted by
Mr. Giles Sym mds, the town clerk, and the result
was declared about 7 in the evening: as follows :

possible interest, in consequence of the offender having
recently been committed tsr prison by the King-tor,
magistrates for two mouths, for having cruelly driven so
horses to death between Worthing and Surbitan, it was
proved that the defendant WAS walking
w'th three
ferocious dogs, and that these animals ws, set on to
worry a cat, which was fearfully mut`.%atal. Th. by.

DORSET COUNTY ASSOCIATION OF CON-
GREGATIONAL CHURCHDL

The autumnal meetings of this association were held at
Wimbome on Wednesday. The ministers and delegates
sat, with closed doors, for the transaction of business in
the lecture-room of the Congregational Chapel at ten
o'clock. A public dinner was provided at the Crown
Hotel at two o'clock, at which the following gentlemen
were present—The Revs. Bolton (Weymouth, chairman),
J. Keynes (Wrmbonie), Tell, W. Lewis (Weymouth), W.
Denshatu (IVareharn), Chambers (Swanage), F. Beckley
(Sherborne). Thomas. Hillier (Sturminster Marshall).
Vernal (secretary of the Pastor's Retiring Fund), &o.—ln
lieu of the usual loyal toasts the firstverse of the National
Anthem was sung, the CHAIRMAN remarking that he did
not propose that they should drink the mast of the ()leen,
as that was falling into disuse—(laughter)—but no one
doubted the loyalty of Nonconformists. After expressing
the plemure felt, as deputy of the Rev. J. Keynes, at
meeting those present, he added that they were always
glad to welcome any of those Christian brethren
who were outside their own denomination,—The Rev. Mr.
GILIS responded. In his younger days he had been
accustomed to spesk of the venerable establish-
ment, but all that had been knocked out of him by the
ungracious treatment they had met with. He refused to
be tolerated, and claimed equality as a Christian right,
and would fling back the insult of t Aeration, but so long
as any Church was support.] by the State there could
be could be no equality. The venerable establishment was
once the great bulwark of Protestantism, but now it had
become the abettor of the Papacy—(lond cheers.)—The
CH•raies.v -aid it appe.red to him that perfection was to
be found somewhere between Wesleyanism and Congregas
tionalism.—The Rev. T. NEAVE, of Dorchester, had
endeavoured of late to cultivate the talent of silence, but
he should break silence more readily on behalf of the
Church Missionary S eiety than for anything else. He
thought the best part of the speech they had just heard,
was the anti-state Church part, and the Wesleyan' were
In the good way, if they had not reached it. As he under-
stood it, it was note repudiation of. feeling of sympathy
with the Establishment They hail got away, not heasuse
of any dislike to rt„ but because Portestantiam was not to
be found therein They were going in for free Churchism.
Tney would not have made much progress as a sect, hut
now they had the Weeleyans to help them also, and •
great part of the Establishment was with them also. Their
aim was an intellectual cictoq, not political sucandiae-.
ment, but no spiritual good. Dr. Parlor with

ITISDAY. NONUSER 6. 1877.

THE DORCHESTER MUNICIPAL
ELECTION.

The result of the Election must be in a
manner gratifying to all parties except, perhaps,
to the defeated candidate, who gets "the cold
shoulder" after several years of service; and
those who mud-bespatterd and attempted to ,
oust a retiring member whom the Burgesses
have once again sent to represent theta in the
Council Chamber.
That Messrs. Newman and Frost would be
returned in the order in which they stand was
very generally looked upon as an almost accom-
plished fact, and those gentlemen must be con-
gratulated that fortunately the promises made to
them have not resolved themselves into imitative-
confectionary, as in the case of the typical
aspirant for Municipal honours whom we sketched
last week. No doubt their popularity had a great
deal to do with it, but they must feel they are
in no small measure indebted for the flattering
result to the fact that their canvassers were the
most "knowing ones" in the Borough, and that,
whilst working 0i aii. in their interests, they
also let no opportunity slip to endeavour to turn
out one of their opponents.
Mr. Emson may therefore take it as no mean
compliment that whilst not even issuing an
address of solicitation, without agents and with
great opposition employed against him, he scored
nearly two-thirds of the number of votes
obtained by the gentleman at the head of the
poll.
The same may be said of Mr. Burnett, as to
whose re-appearance as a candidate there was a
considerable difference of opinion. The members
of the Council generally may also look upon it as
a sign of approval of the business got through
(luring the municipal year.
We quite believe the "new-arrivals" will
endeavour, as they promise, zealously and con-
cientionaly to discharge the duties of their office.
Mr. Burnett we are glad to see back, if only to
hear—when discussions descend into squabbles
—his admonition, "Now, Mr. Mayor, let us
get on with the Agenda paper." And we are
sure the electors did well in face of the questions
which will have to engage the attention of the
Council to return a man of Mr. Emson's pro-
fessional knowledge.
Mr. Slade has our condolences; but, we
would recommend to him, remembering an
ancient fable, to take the unction to his soul,
that he has retired into the serener atmosphere
of private life.

TIIE PRINCIPLDI OF GARDENING.

At the annual linner of the Shropshire Horticul-
tural Society, held at Shrewsbury the Earl of Powis, ,
who presided, in proposing the toast of "Prosperity to
the Shiopshire Horticultural Society," said : —From
the earlis ages of the world tribes of the most varied '
character and different in race have all turned
instinctively ti the arts connected with the cultivation
of the garden and the field 11,1 those which called forth
the purest instincts in our nature. Whether these are
some fixed principles which direct insensibly the
imagination to the poetry of our nature, or whether it
was the expiring light of primitive revelation and the
primitive traditions of Eden, are matters upon which
we speculate and raise ingenious arguments on
either side; but the fact is the bucolic age is, as it has
always been, a theme for poets and the ideal of perfec-
ti.m. As time advances, 1101 the human race multiplies,
awl 28 cultivation increases, we feel naturally a great
interest in everything that relates to the cultivator of
the garden, who is more minute in his processes, for
neither can dispense with the services of the other.
, The jeweller who cuts the diamond into innumtner-
abde facets,.o aa to make it give back the innumerable
rays of the sun, cannot afford to I.s,k down upon or
despise the workers in stone; so the gardener cannot
dispense with the field worker. Who gave us the idea
of the Corinthian capital, ..r the Apollo Belvidere ?
The Corinthian capital, owes its existence to the
vegetable world —we might say to the gardener,
because it was from a plant drooping over nome
neglected stone that the first Grecian architect derived
the idea .4 that most graceful of all architectural
rdem In the cultivation .4 foliage and the cultiva-
tbm of wood the gardener and the agriculturist united.
The largeness of the trees and the extent of the forests
gave t . the gardener's cultivation a breadth and
imposing appearance.

FERN CULTURE.

"Taxis are few places where even the poorest cannot
obtain ferns. Flowers that are cultivated—and our garden
&Wan require cultivation for their proper development—
ars °ltem beyond the reach of the poor, and no one brings
the mots of wild flowers into our towns. If they were
brought hither, they would pine away, perhaps more
quickly than our garden floss ers; and they at least would
Dot thrive any better in the almence of that one vitalidrig

them. They are gathered tometimes, and brought

TRIAL BY JURY.
To the Editor.

Sir,-4rlon reading your report of our Quarter
Seasions just past, and seeing the names of the Grand
Jury, it occurred to me, as it has many times before, in
what an unsatisfactory manner the juries (grand and
petty) are placed. 'I he custom is to begin with the
alphabet, so that gentlemen whose names begin with
A. B. and awl so on. are called and made to serve
upon all occasiona, whereas those corning later are
seldom, if ever, asked to do so. I know a gentleman
who has been summoned annually for the last 20
years, but for this reason has never been sent into the
jury box. This is unfair, the cards should be some-
time, shuffled. Will you kindly give publicity to this
and oblige a dissatisfied,

' COUNCILLOR" WALKER & THE PRESS.

NVe have received from the gentleman who no ably
represents these papers in Weymouth and its neigh-
bourhood an article relative to the attacks made by
thin pennon upon the local members of the press. We
have carefully perused it, and could Mr. Walker do
the same it wont! induce him probably to think more
,daaritably of the reporters. Bideford experiences
ought t, have taught him better than to fancy that
beeanse his inane utterances are not thrust wholesale
down the throats sd. the public that therefore those
who cater for the public .lo not know what is good for
it. We should quote from our representative's letter
maid we we the force of breaking a fly upon the

antrvaonistic utterances we can well afford to regard
with mntempt when opp.sed by the flattering test

GOSSIP OF THE TIMES.

Everybody in Weymouth cries—" How shall we increase
the attractions of the town r yet they too often fail to
note the growing attractions we already hare, or to reach
a hand to the good things dangled within their reach. The
swans are continually increasing in number, beauty, and
tameness, and they are quite commonly seen as low down
as the front of the gashouses, while, either on Friday or
Saturday. I saw two fine birds who had ventured down
the Harbour an far as opposite Chapelry steps, while fre-
quently they fly across the isthmus of Melcomhe Regis
(no longer "the Narrows"), and disport themselves in the
front bay. These royal birds are yet too shy to venture
throui the ship., and sail down to the side of the
pier ; but systematic kindness and petting of them will
gain in time their perfect confidence, and we shall have

A motion was made in the Chancery Division
Wednesday, before Sir It. Mallins, on behalf of Mr.
Ward, a solicitor in the firm of Dixon, Ward, and
Co., to commit the deferelant, Mr. Erie Pros, M.P.,
for AVarehaui, for contempt of court, in sending post-
cards relating to the subject-matter f a pending case,
and iejurions to the character f Mr. Ward, the
plaintiff. The cards complained of requested Mr.
Ward to pay £l9 owing to the defendant for rent.
The Vice-Chancellor said it was most improper to send
postcards of this kind, but doubted whether it was
contempt of court. His Lordship refused the applica-
tion to commit Mr. Drax, but reserved the question
of cots for hearing of the awe.
