AT a full-dre.. parade of the PitITAIIOB Rifle

Invitation of Captain Boast, nearly all those present
signed a ospec agreeing to go on foreign service for
twelvemonth. in case of emergency.
'Jognarr. —On the evening of March bib there wee
held an entertainment in the Dorset County School
dining-bell, at which there might have been a larger
attendance. The programm- for the evening wee in-
troduced by an overture by Messrs. Boyton Smith,
Baxter, and Denson. The choir then sang the first
glee, of which there were live or six during the even-
ing. On the whole they were sung with great taste.
A slight alteration being made in the programme,
Master Evans played very sneceedully on the violin,
accompanied on the piano by Mr. Dawson with very
great taste, and it war a great pleasure to hear them. A
dnett was next sung by Nichol and Plowman IL, with
very great taste, showing that they had not been
trained In vain. The curtain was Gaon drawn, and
after the stage was prepared, a comic drama entitled,
"Look before you Leap" was acted by some of the
boys. Of this, it may fairly be saki, that • better encases
could not be wished for. The actors wholly entered
Into the spirit of their parts, and when the curtain was
lowered, wee loudly applauded After • short
interval the " school" sang "The British Grenadiers,"
which was followed bye song, sung with greet taste
by Mr. J. Persona. The Mead-Master, then with
rigtastioceee, recited "Th. Charge of the Light
Brigade." and was encored. Meows. Boyton Smith,
Bonsai-Wright, and Parsons. created much mirth and
interest among the audience with their Tersetto—
" Why sure then never met." After another gnomes
Jul song from Mr. Parsons, Mr. A Leigh-Lye read a

then closed the evening's performance, which may
