sequently frequent accidents happen upon this
particular spot. Had it been blowing strati, from the

total wreck, with the extreme probability of a portion
of the crew losing their lives. We think something
should be done by the town authorities at once to
prevent a recurrence of such aocidenta—Tmta.

In onos more °Henng e welcome to this regiment,

only say that tne pltaeure of greeting them rests not
only with as, bat with the town nod neighbourhood at
large. No ooe can deny that • hearty weleome hi due to
• body of men In whom the spirit of patriotism is so
predominant. That tbe "diners in command, and, we
may sap, the majority of the men should select Wey-
mouth for the annual training. cannot, we Better our.
selves, be wondered at, seeing the moon nt of accommoda-
tion available for men end horses ; and as a small return
for their continued patronage, the toemeeeople, we are
sure, aim at offvring such amusements ind recreations
as ran be deemed compatible with the feelingn and
inclinations of the Queen'. own. The bill of fare for
this year's sport we are sanguine, will meet with their
medial approbation, and should the weather be fine,

tary to the oompatry, appeared on their behalf and pro-

Mr. Ticarci also referred to the section by wbret in.

defendant on the subject, and he ensued se • reason
for not paying up hie shun. that the company
hal entered into negotiations for purehuing V •
old works. • step at first not oontemplated.-
-Defendant at this point said he did not enter into the
auceistion to bay old es works. -The demand for pay-
nt woo proved by Mr. H. Georg..—Defendant all
not attempt to deny being a member of the company ;
but he had no idea of buying op ad pie works. If the
capful went away to London OA Kelight old, it was
no fault of bit and he did not see why he. should be
celled on to pay for them. He disputed Me liability,
haring entered the couttpany, net fur the purpose if or-
choking old works, but fo ofotoin better gree.—His
Honour rid ender Um Limited Llebtlily Art defendant
was certainly liable ; but be said the purchase of tbe old
pa works was not within the mope of the objects when
he entered—Mr. Tiard reworked that nothing bad
been signed except the memorandsm of aosociation....
The Judge said Gal by clause 3 the directors were em-
powered to do all things "mammy for enoplying better
p.a.—Mr. Tigard then gave • sketch of the dram
stoners which had celled the gaiety into 'listener.—
Defendant repeated his objection, namely. tkat be never
intended to auction the pareboae of the old gs works.
He said it was like Mr. ?marl offering to sell him a
colt, and then blinding upon old worn-out mate, aging,
"You mot have is whether you like it or not." Be
(defendant) would say, "Give up the old ps works, and
put up new ones, theo I will pay the shares."—H is Honour
then gave judgment, and referred to the different acts
necessary to be done before • call could be enforced.
Defendant had eet up DO plea as to any informality in
the cosaitutlon at the cowpony, nor in the demand
for calls, but with reareet to the conduct of the
directors in purch•sing the old works. If defendant
woo • member of association he woo liable to pay the
call, u well as the interest. The Court had nothing to
do with the object for which the money ens to be
applied; bet if it was misapplied Mr. leaning would
hews the right to tae such steps ash* might be advised,
but he could not at present presume that the money
was to be misapplied. The company had been proved
to be constituted according to law, sod the usual for.
militia% had been observed in waling • call. The order
of the Court would therefore be that Mr. loaning pay
the amount of the call and interest, together with
costs.
T 33 ZUNI v. Lwow Coass.—Claim El fe. 41., an-
nelid cells on in Owns, and interest—Defendant.
observing the remelt of the last use, consented to pay
the demand at once.
W. Coutnts V. Mona Minx.— Both parties reside at
Portland.-11r. Weledord appeared for defendant.—
Plaintiff claimed F 4 10s., balance of rent of heed let
from Michaelmas, 1866. Plaintiff handed in an eine-
m/int on " stamped paper" as he palled it—but as the
value of the stamps amounted to twopence (receipt
elareps) the document could not be reeeived as evidence
and therefore the plaintiff was non-gaited so he declined
paying the penalty of £5 to have the agreement
properly etamoed.
Passel v. WHITZ.—Both parties reside in Portland,
and this was an action to recover 13. for a propor-
tionate amount of rent dos to olaintiff in respect of a

by cherub gift and on eighth part by 10. (ether's will.—
