The CHAIRMAN awn root and said the next
toast upon the list was "The Army, Navy, and
Volunteers." It was a very pleasant and agreeable
thing to be now able to add ties Volunteers to this
tout, beceues they were essentially aeocerty to
our strength as a nation. He lid not know in what
estimation they might be held by mama& people—
he supposed sometimes there we• • little *Mug
slid rivalry felt newsiest the soldiers of the line and
Volunteers—but hie opinion wed, that it nes one of
the anew forme that was Over raised in the world,
and he thought that, if most unfortunately, and
most unhappily our coasts were to be invaded by any
foreign enemy, they week' find more difficulty in
taking the first promontory or strand that girdle
our land, than the Primaiaas did in taking that
horrified place Duppel, ir. Denmark. (Cheers) It
was sometimes difficult to find in a company of
civilises • gentleman who belonged to the Army
or Nary, bait they; as femora could always had
amongst their body • rod volunteer, ind a good
soldier. (Cheers.) In coonexion with the tout he
coupled with it the name of their excellent friend
Mr. (lenge. (Loud Omen.)
Mr. Genoa thanked the company for the compli-
ment they Mid paid the Yeomanry. Perbape they
had been somewhat under • cloud of late, but now
that was removed, and he hoped their prospects were
brighter than ever they had been. (Hsu, bear.) It
might be from want of information on his pert, hut
he oonld not sew why the Volunteers, being as the
chairman had mid, the greatest movement in the
world, and having existed for many years in this
country, policy or Jamie* to discountenance them, as
persons high in adios had dove the oldest breach of
the service. (fit was necessary to hare an army of
infantry, it was equally so to have • cavalry, and
if they could put any trust in general officers, they
stated that the cavalry force would be most efficient
in case of an invasion (Hear, bear.) Their cheess.
paring friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer
would, be dire say, be glad to finger the 46,000
which his Government would have saved to the
nation, and would have taken off ltd. on snuff, or
ROOM other useful article, (laughter), but he was not
allowed to in that respect. Ile did not wish to be
political, (laughter,) but be hoped brf. ore long they
might have a man in his place equally able, and a
hatter friend to the agriculturist, as well as to the
Yeomanry. (load cheers.) He had no doubt some
friend connected with the volunteers was aneimus Ist
have • shift in behalf of his corps, therefore be +rota
nut denim him longer.
Mr. G. ROM RN responded on behalf of the Volunteers.
Ater • few preliminary remark., he said they might
often have wondered at the reason why the volunteer
forces did not diminish in the peaceful times now
before them, but the reason, be thought, they would
ear when they considered the reception in
this cr,untry of that great soldier, General
Garibaldi, whom they might @ill the chief
of volunteers of the world. He had been
received sr. ry whore with the greatest en-
' Shosimein. And so bad the Volunteers. Every clam
wee ready to come forward rind support them,
erbetlxr by chewing them at reviews or subscribing
to Moe funds. That was the moon, he believed,
why the forso was kept up with such efficiency as
it was now in.. (Cheers.)
The nest tang emanating from the chair was
" The Member. of the County." In companies of
this kind, the Miamian said, thee all knew they
were careful to 'geoid. is far ma possible —in short, to
avoid altogether __patty politics, althodgh they might
take their range family in the field of general politics.
But thiry knew Meru was one question to which they

straggly and, on which they believed them

(Chum.) However, such • subject of that kind to
which be would wish to allude most delicately, was
.ale enough is tbe bands of their friend, Mr. Gouge,
though he had a strong temptation, as was perceived,
to say something more than be did. (Laughter.)
In conclusion he called upon Mr. Andrews to read
the replies from the cOutity weathers in answer to
invitations which had been sent them to attend this

meeting.
Mr. Miriam said the meaty members a:premed
themselves exceedingly indebted for the kindness
which had been shown in inviting them to dine with
the club that day, but they were prevented from
attending by Parlaineutary duties.
The CD•INISAN suggested that although the pro-
-
sent meeting • social one. it should not he so
precise and as not to introduce any subject
which might be interesting to the company. He
said he Understood that since the last meeting of the
club their secretary bed halved an answer from the
Board of Trade, to whom • memorial *as presented
on the subject tithe care average', and asked him
to reed it.
Mr. ANDREWS then read the letter, the gist of
which was that the memorialists might summon any
person who made improper returns, and that the
Board of Trade were not aware of any better method
than the one now adopted.
Mr. DAMEN said that be had taken some part in
thi witethent, and he begged to my in answer to
ita letter, that he believed it was similar to the one
which was met to the Winfrith Yomere' Club—
that the gentleman who signed that requisition were
in a position to summon those persons for not making
proper returns. He contended that the gentlemen
who signed the reqnstion were not in a position to
do so. Was anybody in • position exoept the in.
specter himself to know anything about the matter?
He (Mr. Darnell) who knew as much about it as any-
body did, returning large quantities of earn. wild
not tell whether the rennin of ether people were
right or wrong. intiniries were made as to their
cormaness, au that it was perfectly idle to pretend
to my fir one moment that they might summon
persons for not Dishiest proper returns, bec.use thee
were made in the dark. The return was sent to
the corn inspector, and it might be right or wrong.
He had no interest in the matter. Hs made his
returns from those emit. How thee were they to
know who tlis we who mule ineorreet
returns, so that trZlre
might summon these? (Hear,
bear.)
The Citarustan mid the reply was most vague and
indefinite, but they meet swept it. He cooteaded
that the present law was totally inoperative to pro
duos anythieg like a faithful return of the prices of
earn sold in the enentry, and they asked for an
alteratkes in that law, so that the whole of the care
should be produced: and from it be made those
important averages upon which were bawl those
, important results in which the country in so many
, ways acted.
The Castings propowl "The Mayor and
Communes of Darcheeter, and in doing so said,
although they had not the proems of the Mayor,
yet they bad varines member, of the Corporatism,
who *eh capable of representing the feelings of the
Corperation of Dorchester. They were • bo.ly
ehth they held in the highest esteem —• body who
bad always on-operated with them as agriculturists
1M the neighbourhood of Dorchereer, in pro-
moting those meesume which tended to the public
good, as well as to the mann interests of agnoul-
turista. Although sometimes there might be dim
comities amongst them as to the beat wane for
carrying out beneficial meager's, yet they could not
help Meshing to underlie all their councils • hearty
feeling and endeavour to promote the comfort and
prosperity of agriculturists around them. Therefore
it was with the greatest pleasure and satisfaction that
he proposed "Th. Mayor and Corporation of
Dorchester."
Mr. Game in remanding, said it fell to his lot to
return thanks for the oempliment they had paid the
Mayor and Corporatioc. He weld not hut teal that
the words which had fallen from their chairman had
been peculiarly acceptable to himself and every
member of the council at the Foment time. and M
was sure that whatever representatioas or misre-
presentations might be made regarding the conduct
of the council, that the sentiments which had been
expressed by their chairman whaled every mem-
ber of the counciL That there were differenom of
opinion as to bow these objects could be socemplished
he was free to admit, but he did not admit that
there was any diagrmos between them in their ,
desire to advance the interesta of nem committed
conceit care or for theootnfort of these who honoured
this by their presence either for business or
pleasure. (Cheers.) It would be cannery to the
spirit of human name if they were to aitpt any
other course, and the worts which had fallen from
their chairman, and the manner in which the toast
had been received. bad given him the greatest satis-
faction. He intss, id • hope that the good Behr{

had laid down upon various important subject& and

The OSATIMIAIt, in responding, add, for the kind
awl 6 tltering OHM in which id* esteemed friend had
been kind enough to speak of him, sod which had hoes
so echoed by them, he felt utterly unworthy of, and at
toe muse time incapable of expressing the gratitwle
he felt for the manifestations shows towards him
on all oussions, not only in this session
but
oleo in former ones. Hs felt great pleasure
in the monexions be had formed with the Turbots
members of the club, who limn time to lime had met
him, end he trusted that the formation of the club had
mot bom without its beneficial effects upon Mrittlitil'e
gloarell, bat especially upon the country around them,
ead th..l it bad slat been productive of good social
results in the production and promotion of good
brotherly feelings amongst thous. femurs living in the

of its ematenca they had certainly had eery important
matters brought before them. They Ind endeevoured

taken • prominent place in their di,cusaloos was that of

Be found from the speech of the Chancellor of the El
