other songs, and in always encored. On Monday the after- ,
piece was the burlesque " Aladdin, or the Wonderful '
Lamp," and we are bound to say that the scenes were
very striking and extremely attractive to theatregoers.
The dream were remarkably beautiful so much so that
we could wish there had been more of them. Mr.
Bannister's get-up the most ludicrous, the fun was admir-
ably suitable. especially the local alluaions, which created
tremendous outbursts of laughter and applause. Aladdin,
smoking Pickwick', was advised to consume his own
smoke, or Mr. Wails would be down on him; at another
they rot a little obstreperous, and the widow Twankey
(Mr. Bannister) exclaimed we can't have any disorderly
conduct here; this is not the Weymouth "Town Council."
We were also pricked up about the New Aquarium
and Winter Garden, which we were not going to have, the
the Gas Company were inddentall y charged with" "ticking
It on enough, and one of the actors confided to the
audience the florae of the Mayor for next year MY
friend Johnny Wood is the man." Of course the laughter
and • lause burst out at each local hit, which was
especially relished by our Yeomanry visitors, whe were
above all tickled by the description of the Weymouth Rifle
Corps—" Here they come, not two of them the mem
height, from four feet nine and a half upwards." But the
Yeomanry caught it too, for on some fireworks being let
off behind Mrs. Twanksy's, chair, she protested arainst
Yeomanry firing practice, and then town bad the laugh of
country. The great sensation was probably the ballet, and
we may say it me a reel one, and, for a ballet, exceedingly
, well got up, considering the place—a small sauntry theatre.
' The young ladies, were very liberal in the display of their
charms : but they danced in first-ciao" ballet style.

pedigree of the everlasting death, which man brings upon

follow that he can ovienate good? The apostle says "Do
not err, my beloved brother, every good gift and every
puled gift is from above, and coneath down from the
Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither
shadow of turning. Of His own will begat He us." In
the next place, we bus the native of the work of God
upon the soul "Of Hie own will begat He us." That is
the figure used, and you will 'grin with me that it is a
very strong firure. It shows that in the soul when it is
renewed the change is as greet as the Physical ehantrilf
the child between the period before and after it.
The element in which it lives is new, the method whereby
it derives nourishment is new, the mode of its life is new.
71ds change, wrought by the Spirit of God epos man, is
vastly deeper than any disuse wrought by education; it
is worked the direct influence of the Spirit of God. It
is quite d tinct from ecclesiastical privileges, from
belonging to, or dissenting from, any church, or from
receiving or not receiving, any particular doctrine. Of
course I throw no despite upon sound doctrine, but the
reception of it is not the change; this change is by the
immediate power of the Spirit of God. We are so
occupied with the creature to the practical forgetfulness
of the Creator, that except we be bona again, we can
never think worthily of Dad, or he happy if admitted into
His presence. My brethren, how empty this agree. with
what we see in the world 1 The unconverted men of the
world, as touching the things of God, are like men who
have fallen into a deep sleep. Imagine a man so fallen
into • deep sloop, dreaming of other things, and perhaps
even speaking in his sleep, but quite unsconcious of all
that takes place around him_ His house tithes fire, but
he knows it not ; the lire advances rapidly in the distant
parts of the house, and his children are burnt to death,
but he does not go to save them. The fire roaches his
chamber, and his wife, overcome with terror, expires of
suffocation by his side. At last the fire touches himself,
and the master of the house awakes with • start, but it is
too late, the rooms, the house, are all gene, and he expires
in the flames. This is the state of the pleat mass of
mankind u touching the things of God. They are fully
occupied with merchandise, with the making of money,
these are things that occupy their minds, but they are
as unoccupied with the things of God as the sleeping man
was with the concerns of his house. Then God stretches
out His hand: Peebles the wife of his bosom dies, but he
does not awake until the hand of Gad touches himself'
he himself dire; and then he wakes, but iii. too late, and
he sinks into ruin eternal. It is a very striking, but •
very common thing in the course of this world; I repeat
it, that with regard to eternity most men are asleep
Would to God I could not say iii. the history of the vas
majority of yourselves. But there must be many among
us who are in this condition, many to whom the Lord
Jesus is saying "Awake, thou that deepest, and arise
from the deed, and Christ shall jive thee light" I know
that it is by the sovereignty of God that the new birth is
brought about, but He uses mesas, and constantly the
instrument of this work in tbe soul is the word of truth—
"Of His will begat He us by the word of truth." The word
of truth is the instrument by which God produces the
change in man, and this instrument is suited to work
upon the immortal constitution of man. I have said that
God manages mind in its activity, just as He does matter
in all its inertness—of course in • different degree, and
by a different mode. This mode is suited to mind, as the
other mode is suited to matter. The "word of truth "is
suited to mind. "Hear," says he, "and your soul shall
live;" "Faith coming by hearing, and hearing by the
Word of God." Now, the work of justification in the
Lord Jesus Christ is done and finished; there are no more
justifying righteousnesses to be wrought out, in addition
to what has been wrought out ; all that is necessary is
done by Christ, and the word of God proclaims that it is.
It addresses man in the condition it finds him in,
as • fallen creature; it comes to him with light for
his understanding, and love for his heart These are
just what he requires—light in his understanding, to
rescue him from false estimates, love in his heart, to
rescue him from idolatry. The understanding of the men
Is so darkened that he is constantly making false
estimates, he leaves out the grand item of the account,
for the grand item left oue of the calculations of man is
eternity. He is always making calculations for political
improvements, material improvements, social improve-
ments, the amelioration of the condition of different
classes of society—these are the things he seeks sometimes;
but he leaves out the item of eternity, and so his calcula-
tions are very fallible. I do not say he takes into his
reckoning only the brief time he himself lives on the
earth; the unconverted man has often • grand ambition
to do good to the future; but when the children and the
grand-children are reaping the benefits of his plans, the
fathers and the grandfathers —where are they? Society
hae reaped the bandit of their plans; but they have
Warmed nothing for themselves. Take • contested
election for example, there is more spent in the United
Kingdom over one contained election, than by all the
societies for spreading the truth of Jesus. Men exhibit
very plainly what is occupying their thoughts; they are
more anxious to hear an elegy, for instanoe, upon the
application of steam to husbandry than upon jusaetion
by faith. Men are like the children, amused with the
tinsel open the covering of a book, and attaching more
value to it than to the contents of the book. The
experience of the MIA corrects the mistakes of the child'
but the light of God's truth alone corrects the mistake, of
the man. Suppose an artist accomplished in all that has
to do with the external—in form, colour, and elevation:
but he is deaf. Suppose his friends engage him to select
for them an organ; go far as form and colour go, he is
competent to choose, and if his friends wanted only a
beautiful piece of furniture, he would be quits capable of
executing their commission. But the chief thing in an
organ Is setwed, and this accomplished organist is deaf.
What would be the result of submitting to his judgment?
The organ is the spirit of man, the decoration are all that
has to do with the concerns of men in this world, and the
sound Is enmity. The ded °epeeist I. the Tema weo
knows nothing of the Holy Spirit, and his estimates are
vitiated by the fact that the chid item, eternity, is left
out The word of God conies to his aid, and it shows him
that God has allowed man endue/le to improve and
discover as regards the occupations of this world, by the
exercise of his own reason by his own light, but that God
has thought religion of sufficient importance tube revealed
perfect from heaven : he has thought the mere convenience
of man of so little importance that he has left him to
discover it for himself. When through the channel of the
Holy Spirit the truth of God enters his heart, it shows
him the high, the paramount importance of the salvation
of man, and thus the word of God is the means of
rectifying man's estimate. The heart of gran and the
mind of man are so coastantly estraaged from God that
he is constantly setting up idols in the world,—domestic
enjoyments, scientific fame, wealth, and power; heart
after heart has met disappointment, and tiç helpless
votaries of the things of time sigh for sorrow, and cry
"Who will show us any good r But the treacherous
heart says "There is yet other good to be found worth
having; the affections of the heart must have something
to lean upon, they are like the parasitic plants, the honey-
suckle and the ivy, that cannot stand upright. Some men
are too low and sordid even for these thing.; ambition,
wealth, end power, the gratification of the lower appetites,
sensual enjoyments, are what they seek. Some men love
their horses better than anything else ; our misanthropic-al
poet, after hurling scorn against all human affection, con-
fessed that he dill loved and fondled his pet animals.
The world is full of idols; but the Word of God presents
to the heart ado. aud proper abject of ; it subor-
dinates all other affections in the meter feeling it presents
to it Jesus made under the law for righteousness, Jesus
as the conqueror of death and hell, Jesus at the right hand
of God, yet touched with the feeling of every infirmity of
man, ready to hearken and save, Jesus the friend upon
whose bosom the aching heart can find rest, Jesus the
altogether lovely. It claims the affections of man for their
true and proper object; there is no danger of idolatry here
in worshipping with all the heart, and now all ether affec-
tions become lawful, because subordinated to the affection
towards God, towards whom the love and the desire of the
renewed heart is turned_ The Word of God is • suitable
Instrument because it presents a suitable object of attrac-
tion, it appeals to man's heart and mind ; by the work of
the Eternal Spirit it becomes efficacious, and the man is
made a new creature, having anew mind and anew heart.
Man is born again. ere my ; lie is born of God, end whet-
soever is born of God overt...meth the world. How is it
that the Christian cruroometh the world? Why, he over-
comes the calculations of the world by the muter calcu-
lation of Jams Christ ; he overcomes the affection of the
world by the master affection of Jesus Christ. He can-
not see as he used to do, and though he may forget at
times his new &deny, and overlook what he is called to
see, the Word of God Ina rescued him from the slavery of
the world—" How shall we who are dead to sin, live any
longer therein " Lastly, observe the objects of this
gust change—" that we should be • kind of firsefruita of
His creatures." You know that before the Hebrew could
enjoy the harvest, he must wave the first sheaf before the
Lord, eel this offering of the first sheaf made way for the
whole harvest Christ is the firstfruits, and we are made
like Christ, we are far behind Hine we can Dever approach
His perfection; but we are to be a" Mod of firstfruits."
The world is waiting for and lIXPOCting WM. innire,Slls•llt;
it does not known what it is waiting for; but we know
what we are waiting for "The inmost expectation of the

It is the resurrection of the church that we are waiting
for. The world is eighths for the failure of all its ichemes

cannot regenerate society by any a&eme of man; it is not
the man who is the most intellectual that has the tenderest

is what is to snake every home • home of peace and joy,

dis to pass the hest of the evening out of doors,
an distributed themselves over the Esplanade, in
ever-moving groups, making up a very animated
scene.

The

Wednesday afternoon, when Private Cave, of Bland-

The regiment mustered on Thursday in full dress
with plumes, and rode off about half-past ten. The
Review took place at the usual mound at Loilmoor,
where the Q.O.R.Y.C. arrived about a quarter to 11.
The D Battery E Brigade of the Royal Horse
Artillery, from Dorchester, were already on the
ground, having ridden across from Dorchester and
come on the ground about half-past ten, at which time
also arrived a detachment of the Dorset County Con.
stabulary. The Royal Horse Artillery were com-
manded by Lieut. the Hon. W. C Rowley, and
numbered XL They immediately formed a semi-cordon
on the north and east of the ground, and themeless
were a considerable part of the display, their fine horses
being in remarkable good fettle. 'The carriages were
arranged by Supt, Batty and Sergt.-Major Pnrdie,
of the County Constabukry, with 13 men, but their
labours were not very arduous, for, the hour being
early, and the wind still freoh, the assembly was innalL
The Inspecting officer, CoL Museenden, Bth Hussars,
accompanied by Lieut. R. W. Bankes, of the
Q.0.Y.C., rode on the ground at 11 o'clock, and warn
received with a general salute, the blades of the
Q.O.Y.C. flashing brightly in the sun, while the band
played "See the Conquering Hero comes " ; Lieut -
Col. Hankey also accompanied the inspecting officer.
The Yeomanry had been drawn up in three equalimid
squadrona, with the grey horses of the band, under
Bandmaster Byers, on the right, facing the public.
The review immediately commenced with a march
past by squadrons, their solid appearance creating
admiration. They formed troops on the move, formed
quarter distance column, and then ranked past in
single file, when each man's and horse's appearance
was scrutinised, formed quarter distance column, and
advanced in column of troops from the right, re-formed
squadrons and trotted past, formed troops again, and
wheeled into line, when they advanced at a trot and at a
walk, changed position by fours, left thrown back. Ad-
vanced in column of troops from the left at a trot;

In parade order, general salute.
After a few more movements the command "Officers
to the Front" was given, and the Inspecting Officer
addressed them as follows :--" Major Yeatman officers
and men of the Dorsetehire Yeomanry, I have been
ery much pleased with all I have seen to-day. Your
turn out is remarkably good. and your accoutrements
and appointments are well put on. The pars le
movements were steadily and well performed, and the
trotting past by squadrons specially good. I was
very glad to tee yesterday that dismounting
skirmishing and acting on foot has been practised
in this regiment It is the most useful thing that
Yeomanry could possibly practise in an enclosed coun-
try like England—and if the Yeomanry are ever
called onto do anything, I suppose it will be in England
so that nothing could be more useful than dismounted
skirmishing. Of course, in the very short time that
Yeomanry are out—only about eight days—we cannot
expect to see a uniform seat among the men ; but I am
glad to see that all of you appear to be good horsemen.
I have no doubt that if I were to go in the Blackmoor
Vale, and see my friend Sir Richard Glyn's hounda,
you would be able to give me a good lesson how to get
acmes it. I shall be most happy, Major Yeatman. to
make • most favourable report of your Regiment."
The Inspecting Officer afterwards added to his
remarks as reported above : Your horses are useful,
active-looking animals, no doubt accustomed to noes
country. lam glad to find that the strength of the
regiMent has been increased by the addition of no
many good recruits since the last permanent duty.
After the Review the Q.O.Y.C. returned to town.
The officers' luncheon was afterwards held at the
Royal Hotel, when there were present :—Colonel and
Mrs. Bingham, Mr. and Mrs. Buchanan, Mr. C.

The band played outside the Hotel during the
luncheon, and a large number of listeners gathered
around. Later in the afternoon there was donkey.
racing on the Sands, greatly to the amusement of the
public, but the races in which they changed riders and
the last in won were rather tame affairs. A quantity
of money was scrambled among the boys, who were
&leo sent to sea after oranges, itc. and altogether a good
deal of fun was the result. In the evening there
were rival attractions, the Theatres, where Mr. Neebs
offered some sensational amusements, a display of
fireworks came off in the Rings. and the gentry were
gathered at the "Yeomanry Ball." The latter was
an exceedingly fashionable affair. There were among

But the judge decided that Arab was disqualified for
not going the course, and they were placed am above.
Second heat : Alexandra led on the way up, followed
by Fidget; Arab bolted, but quickly got back into

the hurdle, althot the rider kept him well at it,

WHEELCHAINHEN'a RACK
This was the first attraction of the afternoon, prises
beiag offered by &gentleman wbo takes a great interest
in the town. The race was spoilt by the conditions
not being properly laid down, and the course not being
kept. It was stipulated that each chairman should
carry a "lady;" but what could be said about the
passenger's weight! So the strongest-looking com-
petitor took advantage of the indefiniteness of the
conditions by carrying a little girl; the other two
carried their wives. Arthur Knight, &Award Knight,
and Charles Kaight, were the competitors, and Mr.
John Farwell was starter. A large crowd assembled
opposite the Royal Hotel, but nothing could be seen
of the "race," as the crowd closed in immediately
behind the chairs. When they returned from opposite
Brunewicizbuildings, Arthur was of course leading,
but followed closely by Edwin, Charles Rome consider-
able distance behind. The prizes were 10s, 7s. fa,
and fie., and the ladies had respectively in addition 44.,
35., and 2s. 611.

or Office some time since decided on the adop-
tion of the Arniattalieation Scheme in the whole of
the military d and it was decided that the
reviler and aniuliary forces should be under arms at
one and the same time, and to carry out that principle
ordered the Q. O.Y.C. should assemble on the 17th of
July for one day's drill. It was eventually arranged
that instead of meeting as a regiment it should meet
by squadron.; therefore it is that when the regiment
aminnbled for permanent duty at Weymouth it could
