GRAND VOLUNTEER FETE IN SHERBORNE
PARK.

Few public events in this neighbourhood have
attracted such interest as the Volunteer fete in Sher-
burne Park and grounds on Wednesday, August 15.
Other volunteer fetes there have been, and many
doubtless there will be again. Indeed, one of the
recognized adjuncts of the new inztitution of the
country appears to be a fete or holiday making—a
rifle meeting--call it what you will, at least a
gathering at which different corps may fraternise,
shake each other by the hand, impart hints and in-
struction in the great work of defence to each other,
and—it's no use disguising it—indulge in the hearty,
social, hospitable feeling which Englishmen express
by the tonal of "enjoying themselves." We believe
that not only among the teeming visitors who saw
the Castle grounds on Wednesday for the first time,
but among the old inhabitants of Sherborue there
was a simultaneous recognition of the singular appro.
priateness of the site for such a fete. The beauty
of the park and gardens has been the theme of many
a port's song.
The town presented at an early hour a scene of
the liveliest animation. Everything in the shape
of a cart or wagon and any animal that possessed
three good legs were busily engaged in the com-
missariat department, conveying forms and seats,
and baskets of provisions, and the thownnebantbone
adjuncts to the victualling necessities. °dicers rode
about rapidly, and various uniforms were soon seen
in the streets. Many of the Yeomanry drove in in
four-wheels with their wives, or perhaps "cousins,"
and about ten o'clock there was a general draw
toward the railway station, where two or three
special trains were expected about that hour.
About a quarter-past 10, the Blandford corps
marched to parade, preceded by their splendid hand,
under Mr. Eyers, playing a martial air. They were
shortly followed by the Sherborne corps, headed by
its tife and drum band, udder Mr. T. Johnstone,
in his celebrated Highland costume. The two corps
were drawn up in front of the station, and in a few
minutes the excursion train from Exeter, consisting
of some Is or 20 carriages, arrived, with the band of
the 9th Lancers, the Yeovil and Crewkerue corps,
and about 30 men of the Moulton Volunteers, the
drum and life band of the I 'hardstock School, and a
large number of excursionists. A few minutes
more brought another excursion train from Salisbury,
with the Shaftesbury and part of the Illackmoor
Vale Corps, some officers and men in uniform of the
Salisbury and Wilton Corps. The Shaftesbury Corps
brought, besides drums and fifes, a very good baud,
which played before them to the Slopes.
The last excursion train conveying the Weymouth,
Dorchester and Bridport Volunteers, the Brielport
and Portland Artillery, and excursionists from both
ends of the Wilts and Somerset line did not arrive
until past twelve. The scene in the interval
presented by the Slopes was lively and beautiful in
the extreme. The diferent corps were drawn up in
the rued below, and the walks and turf of the Slopes
were covered with thousands of spectators. At
intervals salutes of cannon were tired from the
Terraoe, and peals poured forth from the old
church tower, which is a prominent object in the
panorama. The clouds rolled away and the weather
seemed in as pleasant a mood as the holiday seeker
themselves.

Park.
The ground was kept by the Sherborne and Vale
troops of Yeomanry Cavalry, under Captain Sir William
3feill.csitt, Lieutenanta W. Hooks and Dawson Bawer,
and Lieutenant flower, and Adjutant Crittiths.
The companies then fired • fen .le jnie, and after
file firing, whi.rli made the opposite hills ring, the corps
again formed and proceeded to the 01.1 Castle gr• muds to
dinner. By this time a drizzling rain had descended,
and a large part of the company had left the ground.
A variety of amusements hiel been jii °voted, but the
rain coining down in pitiless showers, the visitors weir
compelled to take shelter in every avililable spot. A
general rush was made to the inanmee appropriated to
dancing ; and the refreahment booths were crowded by
parties, who not relishing getting %ea without, comforted
themselves with such stimulants as were provided for
their accounuodation within.

The dinner tent was speedily filled to overflowing, and
the very hanolsime collation which the spiritioil contra.,
tor, Mr. Joseph Whittle, lied provided, speedily fell
like corn before a reaper. We are glad to be albe to
report the complete success of this pinion of the ,h,y's
proceedings. It was a venture of great has Ara condoler-

which had afforded blacker to • large ituutber of pemens.
As some difficulty was likely to be cxeeritnewl in clear-
ing the marquee, the price originally intended to be
charged for admission was rettottel. out everybody
present was permitted to join in the "festive dance.'"
Eyer's Quadrille Band played KOMI excellent music atol
the votaries of Terpsichore appeared, under time tOrtuoi-
stances, to enjoy thetiwelvvi amazingly.
A large party also repaired to the Town-hall where
Ilancing wvt kept tap till nine o'clock to the ycotil

unteerland, cLiolu'eted by Mr. Lo;rit-ig, at which hour
they were °Viz dto give up toe Itch the to t train.
The immense ninnoer or passengers returning in the
eve g completely upset the railway arrangement.,
and volunteers and excursionists both for up and down
the line were delayed several hours at the staCon, there
not being sufficient carriages to convey them all on.
Whilst they were waiting at the station home fire-barrels
were ignited on the terrace and some gunpowder W
burnt, but on account of the wet weather the tires% orks
were not let off.

It is due to the Committee and their inlefatigable
hon. sec., Mr. Pocklingtou, to 'date that nothing could
have gone smoother than all their arrangements. It
only wanted a fine day to have made this firtc as satis-
factory in every sense as it will be memorable.

The number of tickets sold M the bslgo gates was
3,000; and at rastleton gate, 1,500 ; making a total of
4,500 shilling tickets sold.

BLANDFORD. --Mr. Rarey.--This great horse tamer is
ainounced to appear before a filluelford audience on
the 30th of this month, in connection with Howe's
and Cushing's equestrian troupe. l'ersoni having
vicious horses in the neighbourhood are invited to
send them on the occasion ; but as extraordinary
viciousness is necessary to draw forth Mr. Ilarey's
wonderful powers, we question very much whether
the right sort of animal or animals will be forth-
coming from this neighbourhood to show us any of
the great things Mr. Rarey can do. No horse can
be taken round to exhibit on, as to be once tamed is
to be tamed for ever; still provincial curiosity will
no doubt be greatly excited to see one who is such a
wonder in this wonderful age' and to see and heir
described the mode in which his useful as well as
surpassing powers are exerted.

two shows this year, but the backward season pre-
vented the first from being held ; thereforei.ps the

Longthonis on Monday week between these tiso
clubs, and drew together an immense
of spectators. The match was a very close and
exciting one, the batting being good throughout,
especially that of Mr. Roberta and Mr. Burroughs
on the side of Milton Abbas, and Mr. Saunders and
Mr. Guy on the side of the Whitchurch party.
Mr. Smith, on the side of the latter party, played a
splendid innings for 23, and was much applaudial for
his tine display at batting. The repast. comprising
every delicacy of the season, was provided by Mr.
Brown, of the King's Arms Inn; after mining full
justice to which the party separated. The following
