by 47 Coitus children, three poor idiots, and two other
rangers, through the liberality of Miss Pigott, the Rev.
Mr. Lynes, W. Elymods, Faq., and other ladies and
gentlemen. The party from the Union made an tracer-
lien to Portland at • quarter before two, under the
care of their respected master, Mr. Bryant, and the
schoolmaster and schoolmistress. Arrived at the station
they speedily spread themselves out on the Chesil
Beach, and enjoyed themselves in merry games to their
hearts' content, wondering much at the vastness of
the mighty West Bay, and the towering height and in-
finite numbers of the beach and its peebles, When
they had enjoyed themselves mush, and were become •
little tired, tea was made. Mrs. White, of Brandy-row,
kindly providing let water, and this popular cup, with
some capital buns from Mr. Rowland Thomas, one of

RRIVAL OT GOLD MINERS FROM ATWOULIA.—The
LadyJoeetyn,Jenkins msater, 101 daysfioin Melbourne,
wee off Plymouth on Monday last, on her voyage to
London. She bad on board among Pier paseengers 15
Cornish miners, who wanted to get h 'me to Falmouth.
The ship was boarded by a pilot lugger. and on board I
of the lugger the miners transhipp-,d them-elves. The
wind was dead against running beck to Falmouth, and
the lugger came on with a smut run across the West
Bay to Weymouth. where it arrived aboat three
o'clock on Tuesday morning. One of them, a rough
looking customer, was asked if he Lad male his fortune
In the gold country? " eaid he, "that depends
on what you call • fortune. Some people are never
satisfied. I've done pretty well, and haven't much
reason to grumble ; but I have gained nothing like that
man there." The fortunate individual alluded to, it
was found, had emigrated about live years age to New
Zealand. did not like the country, and left it for
Australia. Here, after a little term of 'retying success,
he came opens very rich reef, and in two years took
out for his share enough gold to leave him with a profit
of £17.000. With this suin he wisely resolved to
return home to the "right ,ide of Tamar," and we are
sure that " one and all" wi I congratulate him on
biz good fortune in the southern land, and his safe
return. May some such prosperity attend many nf the
poor Portlandere who left their unpromisiog trade.
