behalf of the members, presented to Mr. Boyton Smith.
the conductor, an ivory baton, elegantly mounted with
gold, ard a music stead of polished oak, the book rest
being of carved ivy leaves, having the interstices of the
design perforated. The grateful project originated, we
believe,with Mrs. Cloombe,the wife of the Preeident,and
the whole matter was oonducted by that ledy very
happily and with the utmost satisfaction to all con.
corned. At the sloes of the rehearsal the presentation
was made, to Mr. Boyton Smith's surprise.
Mr. COO/188 I—Mr. Smith, or rather I should say,
Boyton Smith, as! have known you from your child-
hood, and have been aequeinted with you dating the
whols of your career as I bare a pleasant duty reposed
i
n me to night. It s in the name of your pupils to
offer you this batoo as a mark of their esteem,' token
of their regard. and an aeknowledgement of the skill,
pains, and patients" with which you have brought the
association to the successful point at which it has
arrived—(applanse.) You will, I trust, long remain
amongst us to use this baton. In such a moiety
as this is, am you and I grow olderore may hope to have
many young friends to fill the place of those who
gradually drop off, and you may! trust for many years
be maned to conduit the eonoarts of the Dorehestar
Vooel Association. In their name! have also to pre-
sent you with this stand—(spplanse).
Yr. Worn : M. President, and ladies and gentle-
, men, I feel Wiry much obliged to you. It this oocurenoe
had not been so unexpected, I should perhaps have

the honour you have done me. I Gen assure you it
has been • great Osseo.° to me to conduct this society
for 18 months, and I think I sae the element" in you
of a good society, as we are going on very nicely. I
especially valise this present sea token of the good feel-
ing and harmony existing between us. It!. not always
the case with such smoalations ea this. But w:th us
hitherto there has been nothing but harmony, so far
em our feelings are concerned. With regeri to the
magic I will not venture to say so much—(laughter.)
Our worthy President has been kind enough to express
a hope we may go on together for many years to
come, and I bog to be allowed to re-eolio that hope.
Again I am ammodiagly obliged to you—(applause).

BATH AND WEST OF ENGLAND SOCIKTY,
DORCHESTER NESTING.

We are gratified to be able to sonoutum that the
1872 exhibition of the Bath and Weal of Ragland
Society is decided to be held on en excellent is. at
Shin ford:jail outside the boundary of the borough of
Dorcheeter: A deputation from the Council arrived at
the county town on Wednesday, consisting of Mr.
Jonathan Gray, Mr. Roollya, Mr. Bash, Hon. and Rev.
T. Baseawen, Rev, S. Best, Mr, JOllBll, Mr. Spank.
men, Mr. M. 'rookie, and Mr. J. Goodwin (secretary).
On Thursday they inspected the rites suggested—a
field of Mr. H. Mayo's, and south pasture land of Mr;
Harding's. It was deckled to aceept the latter for the
show ground. It is 37 hares in extent, and forms an
irterilm triangle, having a good road on each of its
three sides. Situated on the north side of the London
road, immediately after Nosing the turnpike gate
going out of Dorchester, it la within an easy distance
of the town; and as it is sloping ground, with a porous
subsoil, there will be no fear of imoonvenienee should
the westhu prove wet. The river runs near the field,
se that a pow.m Il engine stationed in the bottom will
be able to lift whatever is required to any pert of the
groud. At present the field is modulatory, end one of
the conditions on which it is aimepted is, that it shall
be levelled to the satisfeetion of the Oficial impelo-
!indent, Mr. Speakman. The toll-gate being in the
way, it is a stipulation that during the show week
the local committee shall undertake to make it free
to all, and that for the week before and the week after
the exhibition, it shall be fres for conveyance; to and
from the show-ground. The trial fields will be
contiguous to the plass of the exhibition, width is a
great advantage ; and altogether, the arrangements for
the Dorchester meeting promise to be most satis•
factory. The deputation subsequently met the local
oommittee at the Council chamber, when the usual
documents were intercimeged, being signed on behalf
of the heel oommithee by the Mayor (T. Bennett,
Rev), Mr. Damon, and others, and for the Cousin of
the Society by the Secretary (Kr. Josiah Goodwin.)
After the meeting the deputation were limited to
diaper at his worehip's residence, and were splendidly
entertainei.
