moned for absenting themselves from their work without

John Read, and were under a yearly agreement, com-
mencing at Michaelmas last. On Tuesday the de-
fendants left his employ without notice, and did not
return—Light and Newman until Thursday, and Beau-
mont until Friday. The complainant's horses were left
unattended to, and their absence put him to great in-
convenience. The defendants were under-carters, and
were in receipt of fair wages.—Beaumont pleaded guilty
to the charge. Light said he did not like the service
very well, and he left—The complainant, in answer to I
Lord Folkestone, said he had no fault to find with the
defendants, but he wished to teach them that
they must not repeat the offenee.--Beaumont acid
they had all agreed to enlist in the army, and
they left for that purpose. Light and Newman,
however, could not peas, and he consequently paid the
smart. They then returned to their work.—The
complainant dated, in answer to a question, that there
were two or three days' wages due to the defendants, 1
which the Bench directed should be forfeited. Under
the circumstances, and on the defendants promising to
return to their work, the Bench dismissed the cad on the
payment of senors-es.

having unlawfully set two wires for the purpose of
taking hares, on property belonging to Ile Briatowe, at

gamekeepers, on the Bth of January, noticed a hare
caught in a wire in • field at Netherhampton, and he
watched. Between 7 and 8 o'clock the defendant came
up with his horses, and took the hare out of the wire.
After he had carried it some distance thpamekeeper
spoke to him, when the defendant drop the hare,
and denied having had it in his possession.—The de-
fendant said he told the keeper that he did not catch
the hare.—Mr. Woodcock gave the defendant a good
character. He had been in his employ for upwards of
three yeses, and he had borne an irreproachable
character. He did not believe Out the 41. fendant set
the wire, but seeing the hare caught in the manner
described, the temptation was too greet for him, and he
unfortunately took it op.—Viscount Folkestone sald
he had no doubt if the defendant had asked Mr. Robeon,
or his master, for • hare, one would have been given
him. He had acted very foolishly, and bad for the time
essihoed his oliereceer. The &wok however, tied re.

oeived an excellent account el him from Mr. Woodoock,
and as there was nothing known ag•inst him by the
gamekeeper, they would only fine him in the mitigated
penalty of 10s, and expenses, or 21 days' hard labour.—
The money was immediately paid.

in custody charged with night poaching, at Downtorr,
on land belonging to Lord Folkesetone.—David Peck, one

boy in the prosecutor's employ, cleaned the boots on
Saturday morning, and placed them on a shelf in the
kitchen. On Mr. Griffin going for them in the after-
noon, they were missing. Information was given on
Sunday morning to Sergeant McGough, of the City
Police, who immediately instituted an inquiry, and I
found that the prisoner had sold a pair of hoots to Mrs.
Kim Dennis. • lodging-house keeper in Salisbury, for
4s. The hoots were identified by the prormeutor, who
valued them at 4s. 6.1. It is supposed that the
prisoner went to the back of the house to obtain relief,
and finding no one present he entered the kitchen,
and carried off the boots.—Superintendent Matthews
said the prisoner was a stranger' but he had no doubt he
was the same man who entered Mr. Farrant's kitchen at
Bemerton on the Saturday, and who would undoubtedly
have helped himself to anything within reach had not
Mr. Farrant been present. —Sergeant Mo'Gongh said be
had never seen the prisoner before in Salisbury until
Sunday last—The Bench sentenced him to three
months' imprisonment with bard labour in the county
gaol.

troteser's pocket on the evening of the 3rd inst., but on I

chief in the stone-yard, to which only the two prisoners
and a third pauper, named Allen, had woes& Thomas
and Batchelor were taken before the magistrates on
the Tuesday morning, but in consequence of the
discussion that took pleas between the prisoners— each
implicating the other—and as there was some difficulty
in bringing the ease home to Batchelor, they were
remanded until Friday. On that day ttiey were taken
before W. Pinckney, Esq., at the county magistrates'
clerk', office, and Thomas have given an explanation
why he went to the spot where the money was found.

the hearing of Allen, "If you split I will give you
a thrashing." Prisoner said it was old Dick's money,
by which sobrivset the pro-tauter is known in the work-
house. On the Friday following he went into the
stone-yard, and be then observed Batchelor secreting
something near the wall. When the prisoner left
witness went up to see what it was, and that was the
occasion when he was observed by the pauper Barnes.
He did not tell the mister, because he was afraid the
prisoner would carry his threats into execution.—The
prisoner stoutly denied the witness's evidence. He
said Thomas had stolen the money, and that two
witnesses were present who would prove such fact.—
Elias Allen, the pauper referred to, was then called. I
Ile said he hail never seen any money. He knew
nothing about the robbery, nor had Thomas said
anything to hum in reference to it—Jcereph Trotham
a pauper, was called, but he denied all knowledge of
the robbery.—The prisoner was then oommitted to

bet notwithstanding this drawback the reserved seet•
were almost entirely occupied, and there wee • goodly
number in thues unreserved. The programme we..
admirably arranged, the AM part being entirely of •
claasical character. The opening piece, a quartetto, by
Mor•rt, was performed by Mears. Read, H. 0.
Bisgrove, R. Blagrove, and W. H. Aylward, wit],
faultless precision—the piano paragon being very ably
executed by Mr. Read. Las Fanny Armitage. who
made her first appearance in Salisbury, had a difficult
task to perform, bat she made • very favourabl..
impression. The recitative and aria, " Dove Soso," 11)

Bird," and the plasm( ballad, 0°,4
morrow, meet lass," by T. M.
.Walstein, were very
sweetly sung, and were duly appremated by the audience.
Thegem of theevening was,however,the magnificent solo
on the violin by Mr. H. G. Bliagrove. The piece
selected, by Meyerbeer, is an extremely difficult one
but Me. Blagrove played it with comparative ease. me:
Blagrove is a great favourite with the inhabitants of
Salisbury, and he wan cordially welcomed on making
his •ppearance. The music he produces from the
violin is indeed marvellous, and hia wonderful execu-
tion of the difficult variations astonished every one.
He is undoubtedly a viuliniat of the very find-class' and
we are sure that wherever he visite he will meet with
a worm reception. Mr. W. H. Aylward and Mr. It
Blegrove plated, a bolo on their respective instrument;
the violoncello and the concertina. —Mr. Aylward la C

of eapecial mention. Mews. Read and Alva

were carried out admirably. and the audience could
not be otherwise then gratified.

Tin EX-CLOWN IN E• LISBUR Y. -Mr. William
Dunn delivered two able lectures in the Temperance
Hall on Saturday and Monday evenings, and also an
address on Sunday evening at the same place.
There wax a very large audience on each occasion,
so full was it on the Monday evening that many
could not gain admission. The lecturer haa a very
happy way of bringing his subject before his
audience, interspersed with occasional singing, which
not only gains the attention, but brings truth home
to the mind. Mr. Dunn's father was formerly an
innkeeper in this city, and he himself, until con.
Tinned of his error, followed the profession of clown
and comic singer in many provincial theatres. He
is now engaged as a Bible colportenr, being desirous
of employing his talents in promoting the social and
moral condition of his fellow-men. We hope the
time is not far distant when he will again visit
Salisbury.

circular for the celebration of special serrioes at Bt.
Thomas's Church during the approaching season of

"Palace, Salisbury, January, 1864.
" Dearly Beloved in the Lord,— Sermons will be
preached (if God pernrit) at St. Thomas's Church every
Wednewley and Friday at seven o'clock during the
coming Lent.
"The portion of Scripture which will be exponnded
to yen in three sermons is a Psalm which the Church
has selected for the use of her members on Ash
Wednesday ; and I believe that nothing would more
assist you to gain from Lent some of its many blessing.,
than your daily giving this Psalm during that Holy
Season a place in your private Prayers. The sermon.
will I trust help you to fulfil this desire of mine for
you with an understanding heart.
"That such may be the fruit of this Lenten teaching
will be the constant prayer of
"Your affectionate Bishop and Servant in the Lord,
" W. K. BAium."

eOnnt White stated that several complaints were
o him of the nuisance occasioned by the 'mon,
from the defendant's pipe manufactory. A report was
made to the Local Board of Health, and on the 3rd of
October last defendant was served with a notice to abets
the nuisance within a month. He then promised to burn
ooke instead of ossl. A fortnight since witness ob-
serving that smoke was issuing from the chimney ia
large volumes, went into the defendant's premises
and complained of the nuiunoe. Defendant said, in

his fire—which he told the inspector—end that was the
cause of the smoke. —Mr. Gilbert: You are charged
with having a chimney so constructed as not to consume
its oen smoke. It appears that you have not altered it at
all, and have thus set the Board of Health at defianoe.—
Defendant : I can't alter the chimney. All I OBD do is to
burn ooke.—ln answer to Mr. Style, the defendant
said be could not light the fire with coke. He wag
mating all the alterations he could in the fuel—Mr.
Gilbert: You must alter the furnace as welL We
have nothing to do with the fuel.-Mr. Bothains, surveyor
to the Local Board, said he had that morning inspected
the defendant's chimney. It was not constructed to
consume its own smoke, but he thought the evil would
I be remedied by the use of Welsh coal, whilst it would
also be • saving to Mr. Bkaines bimself.—Mr.Skaines
I have ordered the same kind of coal that Mr. Trubridge
lima—Mr. Gilbert: You must alter the furnace. The
public must not be inconvenienced by your neglecting
to do so.—Mr. Lee said the defendant was liable to •
penalty of 40s. for each day after the expiration of the
month's notice daring which the nuisance remained
unabated,—Mr. Skein's asked for an adjournment of

altered to the satisfaction of the Surveyor to the local
Board the full penalties would be indicted.
