BRILLINOIITONL

A TEA Muerte° was held on Wednesday evening
In the St John's parish schoolroom, in aid of the
British and Foreign Bible Society • after which a
lecture was delivered by the Rev. 'R. Perkins, on
"Striking Facts on Bible Work," illustrated by
dissolving views relative to the society's work in
France, Snag, Switzerland, Italv,_•nd India.
Fooll YOUNG FELLOWS.— On Wednesday last. 23
prisoners arrived from Pentonville convict establish-
ment for Portland. They were young, some mere
lois, in fact we did not see an elderly man amongst
them, and instead of appearing hardened they had a
pleasant look, one of them holding out his hand and
helping the warder into the van like a gentleman. On
the same day five invalids were removed to Woking
In charge of Captain Rum*, and the infirmary nurses.
There are now about 1.680 prisoners within these sad
walla.

INSOLENT ROBBIET lIT SOLDIEZN—Between 11
and 12 on Thursday night last, two soldiers smashed
the plate glass window of Mrs. Ruth Combee's toy
shop in Fortune's Well. The fellows carried away a
number of knives; but on Mr. Attwooll complaining
at the Barracks, those who came in were searched, *orl-
on two who were bad characters were found no less
than twenty-one pocket knives.. The damage to the
window is to the amount f about ES 104 ; hut grs.
Comben had insured. They were brought up on
Monday evening before Mr. E. Pearce, and remanded
till Saturday next.
TEN LARILIZIN NUISANCE. The night-bowlers who
continually disturb the pesos of Fortune's Well. in
spite of gas lamps and the County Police, are still at
their pranks, and in fact, almost run riot now.

out of gardens, even th• mold I kicked out of them.
panes of glees broken (for instance at Mr. Morris's
grocer's chop) and generally the place is made un-
comfortable at night These fellows most be
restrained, or there will not be much encouragements
for the extension of the County Police to boroughs
where we have poem and quiet.
Fooraid.L.—On Wednesday the first team of the
Melcombe Regis School played a team of Mr.
Dieterle's school, on the Portland ground. The
Weymouth boys were heavier and altogether too
strong for Mr. Dieterle's lads, and the result was four
g oils for Melcomhe Regis against none for Young
Portland—On Saturday the Pottland Club played
the Royal Artillery; it was a very well contested
affair, and moulted in two goals for the Club against
one for the Artillery, who were the heavier men of
the two teams, therefore greater credit was reflected
on the science of the civilian., who will find the
Artillery formidable when they have had more prac-
tice—Next Saturday the Artillery play the 20th
Regiment, under Rugby rules, so probably there will
be a rough contest, end one well worth seeing for those
who like a genuine struggle, hot and strong. Let us
hope both skis. will keep their tempers, in spite of
hacking, scrimmages, and harked limbs—On the
same day the Portland Club pl.y the Dorset County
School at Dorchester.
