ANNUAL SALE OF STOCK AT MIL
DUNNING'S, FRIAR WADDON.

The thirtieth annual sale of outgoing stook of
horned sheep, fat beasts, and store pip at Friar
Waddon farm, was held on Friday last The stook
for sale comprised 560 fall-mouthed and 6-tooth
horned ewes, which will drop their lambs early in
November, 20 fat wethers, 60 fat horned lambs, 40
wether down lambs, 12 rams, 40 fat heifers and oxen,
and 35 store pigs. Although the morning was any-
thing but promising, and Captain Fitaroy's storm
signals were hoisted to warn mariners against
venturing out to sea, the clouds began to break about
10 o'clock, and soon afterwards indications began to
manifest themselves of a fine autumnal day.
Whether or not Captain Fitzroy's cones had the
effect of frightening sailors, we are, of courso.unable
to say, but they evidently served the purpose of
frightening the laud sharks from Friar Waddon—
those who go purposely to eat end drink, but not to
buy. Of men of business, however—of farmers,
graziers, butchers, and dealers—there was a goodly
number, and right welcome were they to the con-
tents of Mr. Dunning's oellisr and larder. The barn,
as usual, was fitted up for the dining room, and the
tables groaned with the choicest dainties in fish,
flesh, and foal, whilst ale and gin-punoh Rowed in
abundance. Every attention was paid to the
comfort and convenience of the assembled pests, so
that none could fail but to be well satisfied. The
chair was taken by James Harding, Esq., and the
vice-chair by Mr. Dunning, the founder of the
feast. On the removal of the cloth,
The CHAIRMAN rose to propose a toast which he
well knew would be most acceptable to the Yeomen
of Dorset, and to all, in short, who were assembled
at that board. The toast was, as they would all 1
readilyanticipate, "The Health of Her Majesty the
Queen." (Drunk with three times three.)
The Cassassais next gave "The Health of
11.R.H. the Prince of Wales and the rest of the
Royal Family." The Prince of Wales had lately
been a good deal from England, but not for the
purpose. of buying stock, but for the purpose of
familiarising himself with the customs and institu-
tions of other countries. The papers also informed
us that His Royal Highness had recently fixed his
affections upon a lady who was handsome amiable,
and in every way calculated for the exalted sphere
in which she was shortly to be placed in this country,
and who was likely to make him a good wife. He ,
trusted the alliance would prove a happy one, and
tend to the prosperity of Old England. He sincerely
wished for His Royal Highness long life, pittos,
and every happiness he was capable of enjoying.
(Drunk with three times three.)
The CHAIRMAN said that he had the honour that
day of being supported on his right and left by
clergymen of the Church of England, and he thought
he should notK be out of place if he proposed the
health of the clergy. He therefore begged to give
them "The BrOths of the Rev. Mr. Gorton and
the Rev. Mr: 9insitey." (Drunk with three times
three.) •
The Rev: Mr.' GORTON, in acknowledging the
toast, alluded to the sympathy which gentlemen of
the clerical profession must always necessarily feelin
the agricultural intermit, and expressed a hope that
the clergy would ever show themselves worthy of
the compliment that had just been paid them.
(Applause.)
The Rev. Mr. Cauvrix said that, as a stranger
they would allow him to offer one or two remarks.
Ho only arrived in Weymouth the previous night,
when he met with his very excellent friend, -Mr.
Yearsley, of the Burdon Hotel, who asked him to
come over that day to see bow business was con-
ducted in this county, and he, with great pleasure,
availed himself of the opportunity. He was a hearty
agriculturist himself, there being not less than
seventy-five farms in his own parish. They appeared
to have some good soil, well cultivated, and from
what he had seen the farina were well stocked. He
did not inquire if the steam plough had yet been
introduced here,but perhaps the hilly nature of their
land MRS a preventative from bringing that useful
machine into work in this district. As he pasted
through Berkshire he had an opportunity of seeing
steam ploughing, and it answered remarkably well.
They had curious looking sheep here. In his county
they had what were termed the improved Leicester-
shire sheep. Be did not know how they would
answer in this county, but in his they answered
remarkably well. But notwithstanding this he had
always given his preference to the old Dorset mut-
ton. Formerly they used to get 0.--Doteetehire rain
and put to their Lancashire ewes, for the purpose of
getting a Lancashire fat lamb. Butthe Dorset Tama
they used to obtain were a different class of sheep
altogether from what he maw there that day. He
saw that they now tried to grow as much wool as
possible, whereas the rams they always sought for
bad as little wool about the head, neck, and flank.
as possible,and a good crease across their back.. He
hoped that the farmers of Dorsetshire were prosper-
ing, for he wee very well sure that when the farmers
did not prosper nothing could prosper. (Applause.)
The CHAIRMAN next gave "The Army, Navy,
Yeomanry, and our gallant Volunteers, coupling
with the toast the name of Mr. J. Homer." (Drunk
with three times three.)
Mr. HOUR returned thanks. He trusted the
volunteers would never have to be called upon to do
active duty, but if they should be called on to de-
fend our shores, they would endeavour to do their
duty as Englishmen. (Applause.)
The CHAIRMAN now called on the company to
fill their glasses to drink what might be termed the
toast of the day. It was the health of a most hos-
pitable man, a good farmer, and one who had,
and who would continue he hoped for many years
to come, be the cause of producing an excellent
show of sheep, cattle, pigs, and the numerous
et ceteraa of farm stock. They had long known
their worthy host as one of the yoemen of Dorset
who always gave a hearty, welcome to whoever
visited him, and he was pleased to see a clergyman
coming all the way from Yorkshire and joining at
their festive board. He hoped the company that
day were in good humour, and exceedingly liberal,
so that their excellent host might receive that fair
share of patronage his exertions in producing so
excelleitt a show as would be presented that day to
their notice, so richly deserved. They must now
very soon proceed to business, and he would there-
fore, without further preface, give "The health of
Mr. Dunning." (Drunk with three times three).
Mr. DUNNING said he was exceedingly obliged to
them for the very kind way in Width they had
received the toast. He was aware that his excellent
friend Mr. Harding had spoken of him ins way be
did not deserve. ("No, no.") As for the animals
that would that day be offered to their notice, that
was a subject for their consideration. This was his
30th annual sale, and he always endeavoured to pro-
vide for their entertainment to the best of hi,
ability. He did like to see the benches round the
tables well filled by his friends and neighbotrie, and
even strangers. Whether they came to buy or not,
all were heartily welcome. As their object was
business, long speeches were out of the question,
and he would therefore bristly thank them again by
adding that he hoped to have the pleasure of seeing
them all again that day twelvemonths' to partake of
similar bounties they had partaken of that day.
(Applause.)
Mr. DUNNRIG then proposed "The Health of the
Rev. Mr. Caultey." (Drunk with three times
- --

The 'Rev. Mr. CAULTEY, in acknowledging the
toast, said they wanted to get to business, therefore
his remarks would be very brief. He thanked them
most cordially for the kind reception they had that
day given Mm. He had been introduced to them
Ua Yorkshire man. True he was a native of York-
shire, but he was now residing in Cambridgesliire,
on the property of the Duke of Bedford. This was
the county where the Bedford family originated. He
did not know what kind of a name the Duke of
Bedford had in this county as a landlord, but in his
part of the country it stood exceedingly high. He
meant, of course, the late Duke, and the present
Duke, he knew—would carry out all that his prede-
cessor desired: There had been a reduction
in some few things, whqb was, perhaps', necessarY•
He did not behirreAerp, was a landford in England
who had don. 149#1 to improve his estates
than the late -Aare of Bedford—not abso-
lutely for his ewn interests, for no man acted
more than he did upon the principle that property
has its duties as well as its rights. But notwith-
standing this,the outlay had paid well in everything
except in cottage property, where, as might be ex-
pected, there would necessarily be a loss. In other
respects the outlay had resulted most satisfactorily.
His own pariah contained 18,000 acres of land,
most of which was excellently farmed. They had •
capital body of farmers, and during the last 20 years
the morals of the labourers had greatly improved,
a circumstanoe which he attributed, in a very great
degree, to the improved dwellings which had been
erected for their accommodation. And here,
perhaps, lay one secret of the Buenas which attended
the late Duke's exertions to improve his property,
for he held there could be no real, permanent im-
provement to an estate, or prosperity to the farmer
without there be at the same time good,steady, well
conducted labourerson whom one could depend.
(Applause.) It was exciting conriderable discussion
in some planes as to what they should do for
labourers, In the county whence he came they

It was found that the largest farmers wigs employed
the greatest amount of machinery, employed also
the greatest amount of labour. They gave the
hest wages too, and the labourers were better @edi-
fied with snob employment. With regard to himself.
in whatever part of the imuntry he went, he always
felt happy in the presence of farmers. Perhaps
his brother clergyman, sitting on the right of the
chair, would say he ought to feel most happy in the
presence of
parsons (laughter), but somehow or other
when a number of parsons
of
together, they got to
wrangling about points o doctrine, or expressing
dissatisfaction with the Dissenters, or finding fault
with something or other. Now, he was a downright
liberal churchman, and he could not bear denouncing
other persons who differed from him in religions
opinions. The Dissenter bed As great a right to
hold his conscientious opinion, as be, • clergyman
of the Church of England, had. (Applause.) Dia.
seaters had done a vast amount of good,and although
be preferred his own church he would bid them
"God speed." (Cheers.) It was no doubt best that
men should differ. Opposition in polities did good;
opposition in religion did good • and he had no
doubt also that opposition in farming did a great
deal of good. (Great applause.)_ The rev, gentle.
man concluded by proposing "The Health of their
Chairman." (Drunk with three times three.)
Mr. HARDDIG said he felt extremely obliged for
the compliment they had paid him in drinking his
health as chairman of that respectable meeting.
He trusted they would all enjoy health to be able to
meet there again on very many occasions of a like
nature. With regard to their excellent host that
day, he hoped he would have an excellent wale, and
that the dealers present would so open their
pockets that he would native a fair remuneration
for his labours. He agailithanked them kindly for
the compliment they had paid him.
'The company then pessescied to the business of

WEYMOUTH.—At the County Petty Sessions
held at Dorchester, on Saturday, the magistrates
oomplained that the overseers of Weymouth,
Melcombe Regis, and Radipols, had omitted several
names from the jury list which ought to be put on.
It appears that several parties rent houses, the land-
lords of which pay the rates and taxer, and that,
therefore, the tenants are not on the rates. By the
Act of Parliament, persons inhabiting houses oon-
taining 15 windows, whether they pay rates or not,
are liable to serve on juries, and these were not
inserted in the overseers' list. Some names were
consequently added, to be appealed against next
Saturday, if the parties think proper. The magis-
trates complained that great injustice was done by
parties liable to aerie being left off the list, as those
who were on were ooneequendy summoned oftener
than necessary. It is but justice to state that Mr.
Fooks,assistant overseer for Meloombe Regis, stated
that the names of the parties added by the magis-
trates, not being ratepayers, were unknown to him.
The Bench told him that in future he must look to
the windows.
COUNTY Parry Smanora.—The, mopthly Petty
Sessions were held on Saturday before Captain
Manning, R. IL jilsraffielci, and R. P. Eliot, &qrs.
The most prominent part of the business was to
play out the national farotaaf excusing old decrepid
paupers —parties who bad been id receipt of paro-
chial relief from 6to 99 years, and 11110, some of
them, were unable to walk to the hall—from pay-
ment' of rate& Why the legitlature should evor
' have thought Unlaces:guy to pass such a stupid and
. ridiculous enactment, entailing time, trouble, and
expense, without benefit to any party, except to
j
' magistrates' clerks where they are paid by the ob,
it is impomible to state. As smatter of foot, the
poor creatures who were tumble to pay rates were
' excused, and the parishes bad to pay the cods.—.
Harry Charles Knight, a wheel.ebairman, and
William Bolt, were charged with being drunk and
fighting on the race-comae on the 12th September
, last.-11r. Hill appeared for Knight. Superin-
tendent Understood and Sergeant Pitfield pro**

, She was not intermitted herself.--john Woods-
L ford said he saw defendant about a tuarter past
'. eight, and he was'epot drunk. If a policeman had
sworn he was drunk' ho- had sworn ap untruth.—
The magistrates unanimously considering the charges
fully proved, defendants were fined 511. each and
costs, and allowed * ireek in which to pay the
' money.—Abraham Winter Otter, publican, of
Portland, was summoned for keeping his house open
at an illegal hour, but owing to an irregularity in
the summons the MR WA dismissed.--Saninel

rt.r

Portland, pleaded guilty, and was fined Os., • W-

was summoned for being drank on the day of the
reees. —He pleaded guilty, and was fined fra ,
including costa.—Mr. Howard appeared in the
case.
GRAND WESTERN ARCHERY DIECTING.—There is
a proposition on foot to bold the next annual Grand
Western Archery Meeting at Weymouth, and if the
inhabitanta are prepared to guarantee the Mini of
0250, which they will not be -required to pity unless
the receipts fall short of the expenditure, there is .
every probability of** meeting taking place under
circumstances highly favourably to the interests of
the town and neighbonilmod. These anneal reunions
of toropholites bring together& large number of ladies
and gentlemen from earioos parts of England, and a
large expenditure is necessarily made in places
where the meetings ocionr. At the Salisbury Meeting
in July last, the expenses were &boat 4.400,but these
were completely covered by the receipts, earl the
guarantors were not called on to contribute a penny.
Such, in all probability, would be the ease is event
of a meeting taking place at Weymouth, and if the
inhabitants are desirous of adding to the attractions
of the season of 1863, they will act advisedly if they
take time by As fordockond at once take Malin

PORTLD.—Postiicane . Lrintosa.—.6.o the
adjourned licensing meeting on Saturday last,
at Dorchester, Mr.. Weston, on behalf of the
Messrs. Devenish, of Weymouth, renewed his
application for a spirit license for the Victoria
Lodge Inn. It will be remembered that the case
was argued at the annual licensing day* short time
sines, and that the magistrates adjourned the case
for the production of further evidence whether or
net the house remesed the capabilities for convert-
ing it into terminne" hotel. Major Frampton
asked if the house wait Within the line of deviation?
Mr. Weston read a *tor :from the surveyor to the
effect that it was4,lo:_that ft who net intended to
deviate the line Op;# ,th interfere with the house.
—Mr. Tisard, wki ilopeilifd to oppose', said that It
was not more than 190 .yardis to the New Motet,
Which already possessed &Hoenig, and also every
accommodation. Ile _argued that no additional
licenses were required for that district at present,
and that as the Jovtlsad railway might be five rare
in completion, it would be quite time to apply for
a license for the Victoria Lodge Inn in a twelve-
month or two years` time. —Major Frampton said
that although the Surveyor to the railway now said
he should not deviate, he might do so, and if his
brother magistrates were of his opinion he should
say an additional license for Portland was not now
necessary. Tha Beech concurred, and the applica-
tion was refused.

PROM PORTLAND TO WooLwicu.—Forknotve
Smith, aged 18, who had been sentenced to four
years' penal servitude for a felony committed at
Woolwich in 1859, and Who left the convict prison
at Portland about a fortnight since on • ticket-of-
leave, was on Friday placed at the bar, before Mr.
Mande, on a charge of committing a burglary at
the residence of Corporal Bale, Royal Artillery, 7,
Bright-terrace, Sandy.hill, and stealing therefrom a
quantityof gold laces cloak,pair of boote,and mime.
row; other articles. The evidence proved that on the
day following the burglary the prisoner offered to
sell a quantity of the stolen lace at the shops of two
marine storedealers in Woohrrich, and it was now
stated that the prisoner was suspected of being ern-
cerned in another burglary which had taken place
in the locality since his release from prison.
