1.0. GT.—" Hope of Wevm .nth "Lodge, No. 1,507.
The officers and members of the above Lodge held
their annual New Yeses gather;ng on Friday bast, Bro.
R. Russell. P.W.O T., in the chair. A coffee supper
was provided, to which ab .ut 120 sat down. A very
nice programme of wog., due's, chnensee, readings,
recitations. and addreesas wee well rendered by
members of the Order and a very pleseantevening was
spent, every one seeming to enjoy themselves.
tts Dure.—Lant Sunrise Mrs. Sarah WI ittle,
aged 49, residiar in Bunion-building., died enddenlv.
For some days previously she had been ill, and Mr.
Calmer has given a certificate that death arose from
conreetion of the brain. No inquest, therefore, was
bald
RAILWAY APPOINTNITTS.—Mr. Elliott, for many
yona otation-maater at TTpwey, has been appointed
Inspector at Weymouth station; and Mr. Glll,
form policeman, hue been appointed stationmaster at
Unwary. Both theme officers have won most favourable
opinions on account of their courtesy, and we can
sneak in the highest terms, from almost daily expe-
rience, of Mr. Gill.
ALAIN OF YRS COAIIKIIIAID.—On Monday night •
madmen er arrived at Weymouth commenard station,
giving the intelligence of some extraordinary signal,
and 'tic in the western district. It appeared, re
enquiry, that the inapectirg commander, Captain
Evans. considered it will to test the readiness of thnes
who work the rocket annerstoe at Fleet. Here there
are oufficien, cutrd•man t.,r the manarement of
apparatus. and they are supplemented by volunt.er,.
Two rockets were flown, and two guns fired, and the
volonteen assembled as if there were a shipwreck °,t.
side, and the readiness with which they gathered was
teksa as an indication as to how quickly they would
come together to • real wreck.

Ann Randall was .uounoned f ir neglecting to pay her
contributions tower Is the support of her child in the
Reformat iry School.—Supt. Vickery was wining for
the ease to be adjourned for • month ; defendaut owed
El lls., but she had paid him ss. that morning, pro.
tamed another 54. on Saturday, and stated that .he had
an uncle who would probably pay the remainder fur
her.—The Bench cousented to the case being • ljourned
for a month.—Juns Miller was also summoned for
similar non.psyment—Mr. Supt. Vickery said this
we. • worse case than the other, MI defendant owed
£5 7s, and set them at defiance, for she had not paid
anything, though the order was only 61. • week.—
Defendant asked that the case might be adjourns)] for
• month, but the Chairman said no, it had been
already adjouroixl too many months. —ln answer to
the Beach Mr. Vickery said defendant was • single
woman, • dressmaker, and the matter had been
leniently dealt with in consequence of a magistrate fur
whom she writ ked knowing abut the case. Now
defendant's child, a boy, had come out of the school
and gone to sea, and he was ab.e to help his mother,
while she herself could pay 61. a week. The Govern-
ment w. re not hart in these ca-es, tom they would not
be trillei with, and Major Intrlii ha I offered to receive
61. • week now, prod i led she kept it up and paid the
costs—Mr. Lundie said defendant ha I not &boon a
proper spirit in this snattag; the had had her child ,
Witted, Bardel, and taught, and the only charge was
61. a week. What would she have Juno lithe expense
of the child hat been thrown upon her ?—Doleniact
promised to pay the 6d. • week, and ths Bench made
an order, wanting her not to forfeit her promise.—lt
bring thought better 1, make a definite committal if
she would not pay, the Bench ordered her to be
imprisoned for • month with hard labour unless she ,
keeps up the payment of 6.1. a week.
Local. 1./trotter CABll.—lti the Probate and Divorce !
Division on Wednes lay, Sir James Hannan had before I
him the local suit of Martin v. Martin, Riggs, and 1
Reynolds, which was the petition of Samuel Martin,
stationmaster at Westbury, Wilt., for a dissolution °I I
his marriage with the requadeat, by reason of bur:
adultery with the co-respondents. It appeared (run
the evidence that the parties were married as the 21st I
January, 1674, at the parish church of Wyke Regis in '
Dorsetshire, afterwards living at Westbury together. I
The respon lent, previous to her marriage was • I
barmaid in the rsfroshment-rooms of the Westbury
Railway station. So in after the marriage the ',upondont gave way to habits of intemperance, and the .
petitioner remonstrated with her about it. She subs.- '
quently became very violent, and on two ssecasions she
attempted to cut her throat. The police on sech
iicoazi in were called in, and her conduct became a
se wdal to the town. She afterwards took to lea ling
• 1 same life, committing adultery with • Mr. Atkins,
proprietor of the Lopes Arms at Westbury, since dead,
and subsequently with the two co-respondents. Rh
lordship pronounced • decree nisi, but male no order
as to costa, there baler no evidence forthcoming ti
.how that the 00-reepondenta were aware that the
respondent was • married woman.
ALTULATIONS AT Sr. MART'S CHUSCH. —The new
rector, Rev. J. li. Scott, hoe not been long at the
perish church of St. Mary's without proposing altera-
tion., submitting them dirt t i the male occupiers of
pews. The meeting, wl.lch was soni.private, was held 1
on Thursday last, at the Nations' !•"ch i .Iroom, and
was very largely attended. The rector fr inkly stated 1
the discomfort he felt in the 11th todpit, . with the
reading-desk imrnellately below him end, having
reacted a temporary pulpit on the .olth iii le, smaider-
at'y I ,wer then the old one, he MAI Nhi.ll"ex,,hin the
new plan. This is to separate the pulpit from the
reading-desk, putting them on either side .1 the chore,..
and so opening up a view of the chancel to the whole
length of the middle aisle, it having been befo-e
obstructed by the old pulpit. In order that people
may hear better than on the first ocesiion when the
temporary pulpit was tried, It will be removed abort
two feet nearer to the middle of the aisle, and oven
Coin will stand as as to give a cl-ar view of the table.
ii. Commandments. Although there were s .me ready
to criticise any alterations, we believe the proposition
has met general acceptance as, besides opening the
view of the chancel, it will allio clear the spore used at
the Lord's Supper, the approaches to which were
formerly far too sintracted. and make the space more
con veniint for welding.. Sir James Thorn'. ill's picture
of the Lord's Supper occupies a space which it has
been suggests 1 would be far better fillet by • paint. I
window, which would enlighten that part of the
church ; but the picture cannot be removed even If it
were so decided, and that matter must probably be
left for years to come. There has been • rumour that
the organ is to be lowered, and the choir brought down
towards the chancel; but n 'thing has been done in
this matte- except that at Christ Church, the chapel
of esse to fit. Mary's, the harmonium has been brourbt
' down from • somewhat oat- if-the-way place and,
with the singers,located nearer the body of worshippers,
and this also is considered to be • decided improve-
ment. Mr. Bartlett, late ornanist at Hope Chapel,
has, we hear, been appointed harmonist at Christ
Church.
