JOURNEYING TO AND PRON TN! RNYIEW AT Wry.
OUTH.—Tilers was • greet rush of managers to the
9 a.m. train on Tuesday mercies, aad the volunteer,
about 70 strong assembled also to proseed by that train ;
but the satbovitice--blese their innocent hearts f—had
not made any special arrangements for their sionverance.
There were the usual two carriages, and that Is all,
The eager public seeing the position of affairs pushed
and struggled for tickets till the station-master refused
to issue any more, and then they fought for entrance
to the carriages without them. Many did travel with-
out ticket', and the carriages were crowded—the
compartment of the dna-class earriage we were in had
twelve inmates instead of sight, and everywhere else
the same or worse overcrowding was apparent. As for
the volunteers they Gould not be taken at all! but had
the plume (?) of pealing the time as they best mirht
till the &rival of the down train, when they were forward( d
specialty. We noticed on arriving at Mailers
Newton that four or five empty carriages were standing
there; probably these were those which ought to have
been at the other end of the lino for the volturteers.
The return journey wee equally gratifying. The
ordi train left about 8.15 p.m., but did not twelve
at for pearly two hours- The heavy lead
was despittehed with ate engine, though it moat have
been known by the authorities that it wee hardly
possible for it to drag it op the malms, while several
other engines, were steadies mews are told, with 'beam up,
in the shed, and just before anteing at the tunnel the train
came to a stop, was divided in two, and one haU taken
to Dorchester and the other left behind till the angina
returned. On arriving at Dorchester the passenger,
were jerked about in the most extraordinary meaner
for a length of time, during the operation teolnikelly
known as 'making up" a goods train. This oonthisied
till the special volunteer train, which left Weymouth
at 9.30 arrived, when the Bridport enstingent was inlaid
to the special and taken as far as Maiden Newton,
arriving about 10.45 p.m. Aftertsome little delay there
the train for Bridport left that station, and people ooe-
gratulated themselves (there now be* a proper supply
of carriages) on at last being nearly home, when to
their astonishment after going some little distance,
the train again stopped, and was Übe's back in the
station for no earthly reason that we could dimmer but
to take passengers' tickets. We should have thought
that might have been done Were IMMO( the elation,
without wasting people's time red patience in going
forward and bask . The parmengeni arrived home
at length at quarter to 12 o'clock, tired end weary, awl
grumbling at the railway nriamenagement. The vans.
tears marched Into the tows heeded by the heats Wed
of the Bridport Artillery, and were dientimedi.

TR, DIOCILSAX VIIVOILIAL.—CommentiI on the
Archbishop', reply to the memorial from c erry and
churchwardens of this diocese, published in our
advertising columns, the Daily release'sA says,
in mentioning the word "legal," his Orate has
hit the real difficulty. The Bishop of Salisbury
declares that the law is on his side, the me-
morialist' contend that it is on their.; while • third
party protest that both ere wrong. When professional
thvoimians are thus at variance, it is not for laymen
to s with any certainty; but laymen are profoundly
anxious to know what the Chureh does teach, what the
Articles really mean. Now, it is useless to put that
question, as the memorialists do, to the Archbishop of
Canterbury. Dr. Longley is universally respected;
but his declaration would only be the belief of an in.
dividual theologian, and the party in the Church
spinet whom it might be directed would cite in oppoiii.
Bon the deliverance of theologians not lees eminent
What, then, is to be done? Obviously, we must resort
to the means which the Constitution has provided for
the settlement of such disputes. The question, in the
first instance, is not doctrinal, but legal: what do the
articles and the formularies of the Church imply? And
the only way to obtain an authoritative answer is to
raise the question in • court of law. Such was the
plan adopted in the Sarum ow, in that of "Essay.
and Reviews," and in that of Dr. Colenso If, then,
the memorialists think that the Bishop of Salisbury is
teaching false doctrines, let him be arraigned before the
Court of Arches; and, if necessary, let the rase be
carried up to the highest law tribunal in the realm—
the House of Lords.
