PARKSTONE.
New WESLEYAN CRAPEL—Four earner stones
of • new Wealeyan ebapel at Parkstone,, on a piece
of freehold land, the generous gift of Mr. Robert
Roger., were laid on 'Thursday by Mrs. John Taylor
and Mrs. T. Horn, of Parkatone, and Miss Beer and
Miss Curtis, of Poole, when the ROVi J. Cook,
superintendent of the Poole cirouit, delivered an
address, setting forth the difficulties they had bad to
contend against in advancing the undertaking, and
expatiating at length on the rise and progress of
Methodism. A tea meeting in the Wesleyan wheel
room at Poole followed, when many excellent ad..
drones were delivered by ministers and others, and
subscriptions were entered into, which amounts, in
addition to the funds collected at Parkatone, to

LONGFLEBT.
WINTER EVfNING ENTIIITATNNENTS.—The 'mum-
bent of this parish has made arrangement.' for fort.
nightly entertainments for his parishioners, to be held
in the schoolroom. The first came off on Wednesday
evening, and the attendance as well as the high *abstain
hen etpressed, prove that those little :dances are
popalsr. Several clergymen and gentlemen took part,
and two or three rsf the pieties were of a most amusing
character. The church choir gave their &anima, and
"Polly Perkins. the broken•hearted milkmaid," was
sung by one of the chorister lads in capital style.
WIMBORNB.
?ATM AND Tom ON SVNDLYS.—Font young men,
Mimed Leonard Baker, Henry Gooby, Arthur James,
' and Frederick Burden, pleaded guilty on Friday on
[ being summoned for playing at pitch and toss on
the previous Sunday afternoon. Superintendent
Itaynton said that a number of young men eve,.
Sunday congregated on the bridge on the road '
Mg from Leigh Common to Middle Hill
could see • long dist:Aloe each way from thie
and were consequently able to evade the °biters
of the police, but on Sunday last, by some me.
they kept a lees vigilant look..out than usual, an,
000 of the constables consequently caught them in
the sot. He bad no wish to press for a heavy
penalty, but he wished the defendants to understand,
and their companions also, that they could net be
allowed to continue playing pitch and toss on
Sundays. The Bench, after cautioning the de-
fendants, ordered them to pay 63. each, including
wets.
Unpin' ComnosTnthsz TIT RAIL.—Mr. Henry

Jones, of Winsivorn.,
before the magistrates for sending
rail without intimating the contents of the
the oinaide—in short, the box was marked "return..
empty." Mr. Jones pleaded guilty through
ignorance. Although the parcel was marked empty,
he paid the carriage. —Mr. Allan Jarman' who ap-
peared for the South-Western Railway Company,
that on the parcel being overhauled at Nine
_ s, it was found to contain some gun wadding and
percussion's.; which were combustible, and ought
to have bensinerked as such, so that they might be
sent no spoil sea end charged for accordingly.—
':..l44dintisuniitt belied no idea that percussion caps
Were aNglikrid by railway companies combustibles.
Misetentadieithing would make them explode on the
etilWay exalt putting them under the wheels of the
earriagen He had many parcels of percussion cape
from Mx. Fly during the year, and these all came by
'alitiogdist trains, and were not marked as contain-
la. illiabOstibles. A short time since Mr. Ely,
havinginsibunniais:sen wadding and percussion ceps,
eontraely to elder, be (defendant), after keeping what
things were correctly sent, returned those which
were useless to him.—The Bench thought that Mr.
Jones had sinned ignorantly. and hoped it would act
as a cankiod to, him ia future. He would, in the
present instance, have to pay the oats.
Mannar Tous.—On Friday 10th inst., Alexander
Campbell, a hawker of earthenware from Weymouth,
was summoned before the Wimborne Bench of
magistrates, on the information of Superintendent
Raritan, for obstructing the highway in the Square
at Wimborne, on the previous Saturday night week.
Mr. Weston appeared for defendant. —P.C. Chinn
said on Saturday evening, the 28th October, he
spoke to defendant about leaving • quantity of 'new
and broken earthenware strewed about the Square
on the previous Saturday. Defendant replied that
he should leave what he might think proper, with.
out asking sanction of the police, and that he would
come and stop there every Saturday night till 12
o'clock if he chose. He bad a waggon and a lot of
ware in it standing nearly in the middle of the
Square, so that it obstructed the road to passengers
in going from Mr. Rooke's corner to the bank. The
horse was taken out of the shafts. In cross-examine-1
tion witness said that he had not been in Wimborne
more than two months. He had not seen any other
waggon or stall standing in the Square except Clal fair
ainlPillarket days.—Mr. Weston argued that the
defendant had a perfect right to do what he had
done.—Mrs. North said that her husband while alive
was a ()mutable, letter carrier, and lessee of the
market tolls. She had been the lessee since his des*.
—kid the agents of Mr. Hanham, of Deane's
a year for the tolls, and she let standings
ion who wished to stand in the Square on
the week. The defendant rented 12
in Saturday week, and she charged him
the ground. For several weeks pest •
had a standing on Tueedaya, Fndays,
Saturdayn—Mr. Weston thought this was an
answer to the summons.—The beach said they had
no doubt that Mn. North had hitherto taken tolls
for standings in the Square, but the question was,
whether or not she had • right to do so.—Mrs.
North said that, during the whole time she had been
lessee, no one before had interfered.-1&r. Weston
said be had shown an uninterrupted possession of the
tolls for a long period of years; and he contended
that the bench could not go into the question of Mr.
Heisham's title to them. He believed the tolls were
secured to the Deane's Court Estate by charter.—
The Bench said there was great doubt existing in the
minds of the inhabitants of Wimborne about this
charter. They disputed Mr. Hanham's right to

at their aloe. The Desee's Court Estate was

hones, every day in the week, but they could
