street, under the presidency of the Hay. .1. Henderson,
I and Mr. S. Hobbs, Rev. T. Walmeslay, Rev. H.
Walker, he., were present. The proceedings eons-
wanted by singing the 47th Temperance Hymn.
The Rev, J. Henderson then offered prayer, after
which he said he had tried what water could do in hot
I countries, and ae bones, birds, and fishes could do
with water, as true, and rosy gorgeous ones, flowers,
and beautiful ones, could do with it, so could he. lie
I had seen many of those who had taunted him with
I his teetotalism sink into the grave, he, the teetotaller,
was still alivn.-The Rev. G. Hinds. of Swamps, like
! the chairmen, commented by fortifying himself with a
11111 Al of water. He was glad, on visiting this room,
to find the appearance of things so mach improved-
(hear, hear). They were not tired of the old subjeot,
, teetotalism, and if they were, he believed God would
raise op others to carry on the work. Reny years ago

honour, and some ;Ample who compered the system of
slavery with the Divine book considered it was wrong.
They had the impudence to my so, and bad • great
many opponents against Miami One thing against
them was that slavery paid, and it is herd to convince
People that that which pays is wrong. Others thought
the Bible taught that this sydera was right, It is many
to misquote texts of Scripture to prove that; but the
drab-coated, broad-brimmed gentlemen who attacked
'basely, made the people, the church. and at lest the
members of Parliament, who have the thickest heads

law that slavery should not be permitted, and now
there is no "lave in the British dominions. But there
is another slavery, in England, that of habit, and
custom, and appetite, and teetotaller. were proclaiming
that it was wroeg. They used strong language, some-
times unparliamestary language, against it, and they
were obliged to. People said that drinking pays, and
there Is the greatest monied inhered against theta, and
besides that, people pick out such texts as "Let your
moderation be known unto all men," "Take a fifths
wine for thy atomaeh's sake," and then said "the
Bible is against you teetotallers." But drunkenness is

nature • Painter, but who is certain to sell every work
of his for drink, and then to insult every one till he is
arrested, and sent to Dombeeter gaol. There he had
lived for many years, with only an ocoadonal holiday.
That man would warn everyone against touching the
drink, lest they should become slaves as he was, for he
said he weld not resist the habit, he was a slave to it
now it was formed. The lecturer believed there was
not • family oink in Ragland whit* was not affected
by this 'Lavery, none of widish there was not one under
its hoed'. His own untie brought up his children to
see him Indulging in drink at table • his own cousin
took to drinking habits, and sacrificed the business his
father had given him. Tbe old man, effected by his
troubles, took to hard drinking, and hanged bitnesit.
His own son cut him down, and yet it did not sober
him • but he went on to drink, until he merilleed his
children's lives • his wife died of • broken heart, and

to some examples given by Dr. Forbes Winslow In
which the victims were utterly incapable of resisting
the drinking habits, woven around him by the
Gestates of soeietyr Slavery can be resisted in two

LUTON! ON EILIAL—Mr, T. Archer Turner delivered
on Tuesday evening last, • lecture on Bells, at the
National schoolroom, in connection with the Melcombe
Regis Working Men's Reading Boom. The Rev.
Prebendary Baker occupied the chair, and spoke of
Mr. Turner as one who was very assiduous in climbing
belfries and examining bells in the places where they
hang. This was no easy or pleasant matter, Lir he
recollected Mr. illisoombe, when he came to visit his
(Mr. Baker's) belfry putting en a coarse suit Wore he
climbed up the ladders leadog to the belle, and efter-
wards be came down seemed with the duet of agar.
11 Mr. B.ker went on to eonsidsr the associations of bells
I with our population at all stages of their life, and at ,
I different seasons of the year, and pointed out that the
, punctuality tauebt by duly attending to the bells night
be the means of gaining a workman a rise in bis
wages of halfeterown a week.—Mr. Turner then called
attention by ringing • small bell and proclaiming
"oyes, oyez," in the fashion of • town-crier. In his
&Radom to various kinds of bells, he deerlt on sheep
bells, cattle bells in the New Forest, Switzerland. he,
sod waggon bells, The later are now not often met
with, MU he could only tell of two farmers who adhere
to the ancient custom. Sledge bells used in Culla'.
and by the Ifequimaux oa their dogs, ship's belie, and
house belle were noticed. HMSO bells were not known
in England till the time of Queen Annie; but when he
furnished his house he would have a good set of
house bells. After annuli:lm why the crier, aft:r
ringing his bell, does not use the old preface
" oyes," he heti a pull at the dustman's bell, and made
fun of the shabby appearance of tbe Local Board carts.
Postmen's, newsmen's, race, railway, and various other
bells, came under notice, as well as the rifle gallery
and wheel bells. Ladies now wear bells in their ears.
so that they "shall have maser wherever they go," but
betel bells are very imperfectly attended to by waiters
and chanibermaids. Mr. Turner delighted himeed with
a set ef coral bells, and disciouneal sweetly of.. certain
old lady of Benbury Cross, and the oelebrated "hose"
OD which infants are exhorted to ride. From tee
nursery of infante he sprang to the nursery of bells,
in the foundry of Tubeloain and Co., Galled in on the
Egyptians, Assyrians, and Greeks, and found them all
well provided with bells. A bell seven feet in diameter
and all of glass, with a pure and sonorous tone, was
found with the Queen of Sweden, and Shakspeere
speaks of
."sweet bells jangled out of tune." The
Turkish Janissaries used their cooking celdrons for
tocsins, end bad them polished and carried before them
as standards. "Campania" and "Nola" are terms for
• large and a small bell, and supposed to be borrowed
from the Italian mines whence the metal for them is
obtained. "Knell," a Saxon word, is supposed to be
borrowed from the latter, and "sleek," anciently used
for ball, is continued in the Fraud% cloche. La Ceuta
many are found on the pagodos, Russia has been called
the land of bells, and Columbus Lined woe in the
New World, and from this universality of bells he
argued • common origin for the different races ,
of man (•pplause). Mr. Gabbing, who had
very agreeably chimed the quarters at the har-
monium, now played some chimes producing a very
pleasing effect, to the great delight of the audience.
Mr. Turner then gave the second pert of his lecture.
It was on "Church Bells." and be considered they
were introduced by the Bishop of Nola about A.D.
400. Mentioning the celebrated peal at Croylan.l
abbey, about 1100, he ascribed the curfew to an earlier
time than William the Conqueror, and described the
Pre-Reformation bells, showing peeler cute of the
marks on bells at Came, Monekten, and Nether Cense.
After the Reformation interestiug inscription, on bells
nearly all ceased, and the 'everlasting ceurchwarden'a '
name appeared instead of that of the clergyman.
. Preston church has a bell with she inscription
" At thy departure I shall sound,
And ring thou toilet ammo!'
But a more beautiful inscription on a modern bell is
"On earth bells do ring;
In heaven angels sing."
After giving • mass of information about founders and
their marks, baptism of bells, and their abase, Mr.
Turner went on to lament that Weymouth hat not a
good peal. He believed if a tower was built fitto
receive them, a peal might soon be obtained by presents
from persons who would give them as memorials of the
departed. Weymouth being Mil first town in the
county ought not to be behind in this respect, and he
suggested that a tower might be built on the Weymouth
side, fit to receive afire peal. Having shown a model
of Great Tom of Lincoln, and illustrated the method
of ringing church bells, he concluded • lono and ,
very elaborate lecture by thanking the chairman
and other clergyman for the assistance they had
given in obtaining information on the subject. A vote
of thanks was given to the lecturer, and acknow-
ledged, and to the Chairman, on the prof:smi-
tten of Mr: Sidney Milledge. On the audience
leaving, they were each presented with a whitey-brown
paper bag, with • picture of • church and a copy of
"Those Evening Bells" printed thereon, also an
intimation as follows;—" Mr. Thomas Archer Turner
feels mach gratified by year attendance." The young
lecturer asked the company to sing the lines, but the
attempt failed.

Aydin/ said he had been "sucked into • bole" to pay
g 1,500, and he had a lot of money to make up, and
wanted the money. At present he (Verney) owed no '
money.—An agreement was produced; but it was not
stamped, and could not be received in evidence.—
Defendant admitted owing one week—Mr Ayling
denied having ever called at defendant's house on
Sunday. The magistrates considered that Verney
should pay 104 and 16s coste—Defendant grumbled
that he must have have his solicitor to enquire into the
matter; it was never intended to charge an open boat
of nine tons.—Mr Arden said that if defendant objected
to pay, the magistrates would make a regular order,
but Varney paid.

the names of Jeancis and Thomas. When the two make were
left by Puckett, he entitlingd of his miller about it, took two

When the barley woo ground, Me meal OW sent back by
Puckett, who brought it, and lie believed paid the money: He

A Mlck of barley differs in weight, and 2301 b., would be the
extreme weight. Ile gave the sample Laken from the sacks

imagiutol UM barley wan grown on a chalky sebsoll, because
there wee a mien piece of dint 1011. It woe worth several

would be worth about 340. or 40e. per quarter, ii.. or 8.. more
than was generally ground. He could supply good barley meal

Prisoner said a miller Ind barley meal at ten soon a

Mr. Shorto said this was quite right, the barley meal at the
