TRAIN GOING OVER A GUARD.

A guard named Samuel Smith met with a very I
serious accident on Wednesday night, and the wonder
is how he escaped with life. Smith is ;..-uard of the
7 15 p.m. mixed train, and was about half -past six
standing on the line near the north-end of the arrival
platform, looking towards the Great Western 615
train, which was being shunted on the opposite line.
His attention being thus engaged, he did not observe
that the 6 25 South-Western train was approaching
him. Several persons shouted to him, and the driver I
of the approaching train blew his whistle, and reversed,
but. although the speed of the train was reduced, it
cause on, and the engine knocked Smith down between
the metals, where be lay till all the train had passed
over him. The company's servants then immediately
picked him np, and it was, strangely enough, found
that he had fallen with his head towards the train, a
position which would be deemed impossible but that
he was seen to fall when struck by the engine. The
poor fellow's body was fortunately clear between the
metals, but his collar bone was broken, and he
received other injuries, while his cap was cut to pieces,
Ids basket of food, provided for the night also cut up,
and his clothing much torn. He was put on a trolly
at the platform, brandy, ke.., were administered to
him, and Mr. Colrett immediately sent for the com-
pany's medical officer, Dr. Rhodes, who arrived very
shortly, and, after partial examination, advised his
being sent to the Royal Hospital, and Mr. Collett
immediately sent him down in a chair. At that
invaluable institution, he was attended by the medical
staff, the fracture of the collar bone was found to be on
the right side, the patient also could not raise properly
his left arm, which was much swollen; his face and
hands were found gaahed, and, in fact, he had several
contusions and cuts. However, he in well placed,
under the kind care of the medical gentlemen, and ex-
perienced Mrs. Mortimer, and we hope be may soon
improve before the news too much alarms his poor
wife at Trowbridge.

celebrated on Wednesday evening, when several friends
from Weymouth and Dorchester went to the pretty

near. They afterwards went to the chapel, and had a
meeting, when a former minister, Rev. Gower, prayed,
the pastor, Rev. J. S. Butcher, told how nicely Upway
chapel is getting on as to funds, and the Revs. Pell, of
Portland, Bolton, W. Lewis (Weymouth) and Ebbe. of
Lulworth, made pleasant speeches, the unity end ludo.
pendence of the churches being one special subject. The
friends were enabled to return by a later train than usual.

THE CLAIMANT AND HIS YEIENDS.
A correspondent of the 1:14.5, referring to a TO,lllt
letter, says, " A. I know this prison well, and lane

Dorchester, Dorset, England, 1877-07-24

Conjugal quarrels must now come to an early end; the
Chief IWistntte of Weymouth has declared from the
Bench that the woman ought to have the last word.

People who don't like to pay lam I rates because they
don't get much benefit as they fancy they ought, had
better take pattern from Mr. Rickard Cot, and, in order to
escape costs, agree to pay the rate. They may save their
time and breath if Mr. Steggall is not troubled to come
down to Court, and enforce the Board's claim.

Two checks ivi.ecuting the Outer Pier Extension have
been received. One is for .CI,OOO from Mr. Edwards,
M.P., who is satisfied to that amount, and sends it to the
Mayor. The other is for three "figure noughts.' without
the value.giving 'one," and is for division among the
grumblers.

I learnt "something not generally known" on
Tuesday afternoon. Gun-cotton is violent enough for the
whitehead torpedo ; they don't know what to make of
dynamite on board ship, fancy it's too "ticklish,' and that
sort of thing. Mr. Read does not care about a hundred-
weight more or less at Portland, and he used to he calm
with a couple of tons, and no lightning conductor. Happy
faith ! But it is all better understood and better regulated
now.

Mr. Edwards, MP., proposes • Horticultural Society
and a larger flower show. It the gentlemen who can con-
tribute will be liberal and patient, it will he • triumph,
for we used to have splendid shows in Weymouth. But
division will cause ruin if allowed to gain a footing, and,
truism as it seems, everybody must be reminded that
exhibitors cannot all gain the first prize.

Mr. Edwards has again shown his liberality of heart in
the most handsome manner, as will be seen from the
following:—" I am glad to hear that on reading the sug-
gestion I made last week as to the advisability of re-
placing the wooden drinking-trough at Knightsbridge by
one of granite, Mr. Henry Edwards, M.P., at °nee sent to
the Drinking Fountains Association a cheque for •
hundred guineas to be applied to that purpose, and that
no less than three others have followed his spirited
example—Vanity Fair."

Dear Madam,- -Pray accept my heartfelt thanks for the moat
extraordinary cure you lave pertomied on me. If I did not
return you such I should consider myself ungrateful.
I, Ellen Dailey, was alnicted with deceased knee-joint for
some oonsiderable time, during which my health madly auffered,
en numb en, that I became an inmate of the Salisbury Infir-
mary for 11 months, where they performed an operation on
my her, removing the hone which forms the knee-imp
(Patella), after which I was turned out incurable. I was then
prevailed on to become an inmate of the Charmouth
valoscent Home for three months, from where I INA also
turned incurable. At lam I wee recomturcdaa so apply

LIILWORTH.

THE \Vitus or The SARAH.—Vinient gales from the
S.W., S., and S.F. have been raging in this district,
with a roughness quite unusual for the month of June,
and we are very sorry to report the loss of the brigan-
tine Sarah, Captain Norris, of Union-place. The
Sarah, which is from 200 to 300 tons, a well-known
Weymouth vessel, had iii) tons of coal for Mr. Charles,
foilwarth, and got &WTI there about Wednesday
week. On Sunday week there was a tremendous sea
on at the Cove. and the gales being repeated with
occasional intermissions, much anxiety was felt for
the brigantine. 4hi Friday last the wind WM violent
from the S.F., and blew right into the Cove, and about
six or seven the vessel began to drive, an.l prism she parted
her port cable, and drove ashore at Black Racks, on
the wa..t side of the Cove. The coastguard watchman
reported the accident to Mr. Morrison, chief boatman,
who assembled his crew, launched the whale gig, and
proceeded to the vessel; but they could be of no
assistance, as the Sarah was already amongst the
breakers. The Coastguard returned to the shore, and
went alotri the beach with lifebelts and lifelines, and
succeeded in rescuing Capt. Norris and two men ; two
.'there having left in the ship's boat before the vessel
came ashore. The Sarah was loft labouring heavily on
the beach, and it WM expected that if the gale con-
tinued, ohs would become a total wreck. Mr. R. A.
Ayles proceeded with a man to lodworth; but MI
Friday night the report came that she had beaten two
holes in her bottom, and could not be saved. Capt.
Norris was part owner, Mr. R. A. Ayles was ship's
husband and part owner. It Is said the vessel is not
insured.

to Homer's pretty melody "Oh wilt Thou be my bride,
Kathleen." Smart's exquisite duet "When the Wind
Blows in from the Sea" was also most admirably rendered.
Two readings lent a most agreeable variety to the pro-
gramme Miss Samson's "Double Dorset" was inimit-
able, and elicted a long and well deserved applause,
nor was the pathos of "The May Queen" by any
means lost upon the audience. A " brand new "
Kirkman's pianoforte, which Mr. Rooks, of Wey-
mouth, kindly supplied, added considerably to the success
of the entertainment. In reply to a vote of thanks given
by Miss Samson. the Rev. D. B. It. Benham expressed hie
great pleasure in having such practical, musical talent, at
his command, and hoped that next winter several similar
perforreencee might be given for the amusement and
pleasure of the parishioners and their friends. The Rum of
.C 4 was realized, the surplus of which will be devoted
towards a new stop in the church organ.

.
ON Thursday, May Slot, the Temperance Society of
this place held their annual tea. Although the
weather was wet about 200 sat down to the good
things provided, under the direction and management
of Mrs. Vine, her teetotal family, and friends. At
seven o'clock the annual meeting was held, the chair
being occupied by Mr. Vine. who called upon the Rev.
Mr. Hawkey, Messrs. E. }forth, late master of the
village school, and D. Ballarn to address the meeting.
Lastly, the Rev. G. H. Penny, vicar of Abbotebury,
finished the successful gathering by taking the
temperance question in a general, as well as in a
medical point of view. In the room we noticed

bury, Mr. and Mrs. Adams and friends from Litton,
and visitors from all parts of tha county. Miss Vine
ably accompanied the singing on the harmoniuin. By
appearance of the meeting, we should think the
abstainers of Longbredy and the surrounding villages
must he in earnest, if we take the will night and the
dark roads they had to travel into consideration.
