A REAL WEYMOUTH HOAX.
To the Editor of the Dorset County Expesse aatd
Agricultural Gazette.

Sui,—There is at teeth this thing to be said in
favour of Weymouth, "that when anything for evil
is done in Weymouth it i 4 done thoroughly." Ws '
see this in all matters political, municipal, elle
social. Take for -misosple the Mot Par=
election, the last municipal election, and I 1
"amusements for the people." At the last Partif.
mentary election Mr. *oaks, orre:of the
galled the people into the belief that if timer 4=l
him as one of their members ke Vrouldr=eihipplin
here and make thirroire of the Mort A ' '
in the kingdom. Well, he was returned, an wish ,
has he done for the borough? Literally nothinag,
and as for the shipping interest, the trade of Os.
port was never at so low an ebb as at the pram* -
time and without
lastth e slightest PctoWeet of =6".•
magi. At themunioipai election 'sr
people were bribed to vole fir the kola Of the *Who
nant party. Those who mbeeribed the money erell.:
undoubtedly supposed by Some to be very pthritilii,
to expend so much money for the good of the Wirt,
while others regarded it as eo much loos mosey for
the purpose of retaining the power of domination.
Never were rite* more completely hoaxed. Why,
Sir, if the inhabitants would only loth about awsk.
they would me that the parties etheoribins

But even s wan not enough. The following day
the crier was sent round ts *snow, that a

penny. If those from whom we might to awe*

amusements of any kind are announced,they thine%
accomplish the end more effectually than give a •re-
