hope that Forestry would prosper, and wished it every

Mr. Molnar then proposed the "Medical Officer of
the Society, Dr. Dowling, and in doing so expressed

rented him from being resent with them.
Mr. Diollinger. the representative of Dv. fowling,
responded, and paid • high tribute of respect to the
Memory of Dr. Dortlisi'm wife, who had lately died.
After expatiating upon liet many private and dome.tie
videos, be expremed some* at the increase of 'Wi-
lted smooad the member* of the Court, and then dwelt
on the adrantates of being Foresters. He was glad,
however, that they had not had to mourn over a sines
daeth.
Mr. Momarhisen gave the "Honorary Member.,"
and in connexion with the tosst, coupled the name of
Dr. Glover, and called on the Court to drink to his long
life and 64.piness.
Dr. Otsman espremsd the interest he felt, in con.
awns with other hon. goesobers, in the prosperity of
Forestry. but wesoially of that of Court Bt. Austin.
He believed the grand motto and principal of the Order
wee, " Be trite to each other, be true to yourselves, be
true to your wives," and be might add "Be tree to your
sweethearts." (Laughter.)
The Csailg as next proposed the "Demonstration
Committee," coupling with it the names of Mr. North'
over, Chief Holger, and Mr. Marley, Secretary. In
doing so, the Chairman mid he had never seen the place
look so well before; there was • great deal of green
shout, but that corresponded with the Order. The pro-
cession elm the best he had over seen, and great credit
wan due to the Demonstration Committee. A better
man they could not have than Mr. Morley, and he was
always ready for their serrios, sad as long sa be was
with them tm would do his duty. (Cheers)
it,. Normals, as Chid Ranger of Court St. Austin,
said he had dope his best to carry out the principles of
Forestry since he had been in office. and would continue
to do ao until bia time expired. Sines the formation of
the Court. about two years and nine months ago, they
bed had 90 members on the roll call, but since their last
demonstration their number wee nearly doubled, and
they had been enabled to pot L'7o in the bank, wolusive
of £56 15.. for sick nay. (Cheers).
Mr if after thanking the Chairman and the
company for the manner in which his health had been
proposed and received, said from the eloquent speech
made by Mr. Howard his task would be light Mr.
Howard had set before them the advantages of Forestry,
and Mr. Nortkover had told them of the successful and
satisfactory condition in which Court Saint Austin
was placed in at the present time. He (Mr. Morley)
wished to add • few words to those remarks, which
would be on the constitution of the Ancient Order or
Foresters, and they would be not only for the benefit
of themselves, but also for that of the public at large,
knowing that gentlemen were present who would give
elect to what he might utter on this occasion. (Hear,
War.) The constitution of Forestiy was this First,
they had the high character of the Order, which is the
executive government—protecting all, satisfying all
liseind, they had a district, with a amm= funeral
feed for the benefit of every Court in connection with
that district. If, unfortunately. • dozen of the
members of Court St. Austin should die to morrow '
there would be no drain upon their Court funds . the
funeral claims of those dozen members would be met by
the district fund, which at the present time amounted
to nearly £l,OOO, invested, he was happy to say, on
excellent security- on security which was • protection
to those Cosnis who belonged to it. In the third plaoe
they had the local courts. These provided for sickness
and also for management expenoes. Thus there was
one harmonious whole; every part Ina perfect, snit
united to each other, and there was • unison and
harmony in all (Hear, hear.) But, perhaps, there
might be some persons who say all this is very well,
but what about your demonetrations What about
all this tined and paraphanalia I what about these
feathers and stars? what have you got to say about
this? There's the rub; he knew that was the case.
We I, in the first place, every member paid for his
regain and in no Court were fonds appropriated
for this purpose. It was a principle in this
free and happy land that any man could
do as be plemed, provided he did nol infringe upon
his neighbour's right. and liberties. Forestry did not do
this ; awl Foresters paid for their own regalia. There
wee one thing which he would tell them, and in doing
so La did not think he shod,' be divuLeing the secret.

which woe that qut of the profit of the media sold by
the High Court, they were enabled to make splendid
grants for the alleviation of distress rand misery,
snob as were witnessed in Moonshine and
Cheshire when the High Court voted £5OO in
Addition to £2500 giving by the members nicking a total
of £3.000. Lord Palmerston was the man who had said
that he was bothered by one party and another d much
that he believed he was the best abused roan in Enron/.
He (Mr. arley), thought the Ancient Order of Foresters
was the best abused society In England. He then
alluded to some remarks made in • contemporary con.
zeroing the Order, saying that he was much obliged
fur them, as it did the warty good. He then referred
to the decorathe, and said the mountain would not

hoped all the visiting friend' wore satiated in the way
in which the Dem...coition Committee had acted, and
on the behalf of Ur. Northover and himself he returned
them his thanks for their kindness, and waeluded by
expressing • wish that Court St Austin might live and
shine, and that it might become, as be had Predicted it
would he, one of the beet CoarM in the district.
(Applause.)
H.,wkitp, in eulogistic terms, proposed "Th.
Teeters" to which Mr. Hillyar brietly responded.
The Costanza then mowed "The Visitors,"
winding with the toast the names of Hr. Slope. from

Mr. Iktarxxin the course of an able speech. impressed

and 100 widows, with 300 children in the district. He

B°CIiTY.-On Monday about SO members of this
society, chiefly cartooned of throe forming the brass
band. paid a visit to the fashionable and beautifully-
situated village of Bourne, to enjoy the de-
light of • sea breeze, which teetotalers, as well as
others, find very conducive to health. The pleasures
of the day were considerably enhanced by the very
sweet rounds which ever and anon were listened to
with delight, as the happy party proceeded on their
journey. They met about 60'clock at Mr. Hamroond's
Temperance Hotel, and proceeded, with banners
flying and music playing, through Charlton, Spettis-
bury, Storminstor Marshall, and on to Pools, where,
staying for a abort time for refreshment at the Teen-
=2cCoffee-room, they roused the sleepy ones
tcheir slumber, called the working men from
their labours, the dame from ber culinary occupations,
and the yon-..; women out to use who ever those nice

mony. A . r splessantdrivethepartyarrivedattheir

lid to enjoy the beauties of the plans, and certainly
Bourne if it is not so much thought of as Weymouth,
yet is rising rapidly in the animation of tourists,
pleasure and beelthaeekers, and others.-Plomantly
situated, and with a full view of the wide sod ex-
pansive deep, a room admirably adapted for the
occasion, was made see of for dining, and about 12
o'clock the party sat down to an excellent dinner,
which did groat credit to the Cuisine of Mr.
Flemniond's establishment Don't say that teeto-
talers can't enjoy tbemeelves, for no sooner was
dinner over than the party proceeded to the pier,
where they very greatly enjoyed themselves ; the

their good wishes by making the band • donation.
At hall'-past three the party returned to Poole, and
were most cordially remised by their abstaining
friends, who had prepared for their reception a
public tea in the Temperance Hall, to which up-
wards of 80 sat down. After tea the meeting was
addressed by Mr. -Curtis, who, in the kindest
manner, welcomed the Temperance Harmonic
Society on their first visit to Poole, and stated that
the committee trusted in • short time again to have
the pleasure of seeing them. Mr. Mate, of the
Poole Herald, also joined in the welcome, expressing
his very groat satisfaction to see them on that
occasion. Al 7 o'clock the company formed in
procession, and proceeded to a field (kindly lent for
the occasion) near the West Wharf, where, with
swinging, kise.in.the-rine, and listening to the
music, they passed the time till 9 o'clock, and the
Blandford friends prepared for their homeward
journey, all highly delighted with their day's jaunt.
In consequence of the lateness of the hour when
they arrived in 13Landford, the band did not play
through the town, and refrained from doing so is
the morning in respect to the memory of the late
rector. We understand, however, that on Thursday
evening, both before and during the lecture at the
Townhall, the inhabitants will have an opportunity
of hearing it, and we believe they will %rye with us
that it is making excellent program We cannot
conclude this report without alluding to the great
praise which is due to the able instructor of the
hand-Mr. T. Hunt; and when it is remembered that
only • few months ago many of those he has
instructed did not even know a single note of
music, and that he has devoted his time and talents,
and given the most persevering attention to
accomplish the end desired-the formation of an
efficient temperance band in Bland ford -we feel
sure all will agree in awarding him that cooed of
praise which is his due, and we trust soon to hear
that • movement will be started to present him
with some fitting token of the approbation of
temperance friends, and the community at large.
