that day, and therefore he was quite positive as to the
defendant's innocence—Jane Goodridge mid she em-
ployed the defendant to winnow some corn foe her. He

to his house about eve o'clock, and then accompanied
the defendant to the barn, where they winnowed his

during the whole of the time, and they renamed to his
mother's house about seven o'clock. —Hennas Goodridge

about seven o'clock. He weld not have gone to the
place stated by the complainant's witnesses, and have
returned by seven &doe'. The magistrates dismissed
the cue; but Lord Folkestone recommended the de-
fendant not to allow him friends to menses the winesom
on the other side with threats, as it in no way assisted
him, but rather proved his guilt.
Hermit OF • LICRICSA —Mr. Jacob flutter Wells,
landlord of the Boot Inn. Plaitford, applied to the
Bench for • renewal of his lioenae for that publichouss.
The case was adjourned from the last licensing day in
order that additional witnesses might be procured.
Mr. Harvey, of Southampton, now apocec.l. for the
applioant. —Lord Folkestone said the spinet
the house were that the landlord wee in the habit of
getting drunk, during which time he was almost mad,
and that he caused a great annoyance. In addition his
house warn generally disorderly. He read • letter from
Captain Berner', addressed to the superintendent of
police, Mr Matthews, requesting that the matter
should be Nought before the magistrates at the annual
licensing day. He stated that drunkennen and fighting
frequently occurred in the house, and that it was very
by kept The landlord bed deserted his wife and family
and was now living with another woman. The house he
said was • einem' to the county of Wilts. In a second
letter Captain Berners stated that the police were fully
aware of the disturbances, and that the superintendent
had been present and witnessed the disorderly conduct
carried on.—Sergeant .They stated that in March last
be found the landlord drunk, and asleep in the bar.
012 the 28th July he found the woman, with whom be
cohabited, lighting with a man named Morel, in front
of the house. He could not see whether she was drunk
or sober, as directly they saw him they ran into the
house. On the Rind of August he again visited the
inn,Wella was then very drunk in the tap-roommaking
a great disturbence, and behaving more like • maniac
than a sane man. Re made some observations as to the
magistrate*, and said be should not again amnions any
more of those present for drunkenness. He yelled kik*
a m.ri man. He (the ogler) had received repeated
complaints from the neighbours in to the manner in
which the house was .—P C. Davies, constable
for Plaitford,said he bad frequently seen Mr. Wells the
worse for liquor but was never present when he made a
disturbance. He spoke as to disorderly conduct
in the house, and the complaints that were con-
tinually being made to him. Superintendent
Matthews observed that the last time he visited
Plaitford, half a-dozen complaint* were made to
him as to the conduct of the house.—Mr: Harvey
said he most confess there were no very great charges
made against the landlord. In Month last he was drunk
and asleep, when he was not annoying any one. and on
the Rind August he was again drunk, and those were
the only two charges against him. Be had endeavoured
to find out who had complained, but had been unable,
for the policemen had both mentiooed Genie lierner's
name, and he appeared to bane been the prime mover
in this mutter. That gentleman, however, did not live
now in the neighbourhood, and therefore could not suffer
from any of the disturbances. No one had come forward
to complain, but amply the evidence of the two police-
men'. He trashed the magistrates, under the rheum-
stances, would not refuse the Boma He we, instructed
on the part of Kr. Wells Wenner his regret for having
acted at thole times, when be had taken a little too
much, indiscreetly ; but for four months out of the 1111•011
he had occupied the house he had been • teetotaller. He
had also kept • holism at Southampton, and no com-
plaints had been made against it. He was of opinion it
was the fault of the inbabitants—who were very rough
in that neighbourhood —rather than that of the land-
lord. —The magistrates were unanimous in the oplaioe
that the boom had bus very improperly condemned, and
they accordingly refused to grant the Beene*.
BAL ISIORT LOCAL BOARD OF HRALTR.—The monthly
meeting of this Board was held as Thursday, at the
Corneal House when the Mayor (J. Style, Esq.) pro-
sided; and this* present were Aldermen Homey and

—Mr. Aylward's concert on Thursday evening, the
3rd instant, was, as anticipated, very successful.
The great pianiste, M. Tbalberg, was in full force,
and we cannot imagine the possibility of his ever
having played more magnificently. In addition to
his celebrated recitals, M. 'Melberg took part in
the trio in 0 of Beethoven, and although pro-
fessedly a solo player, his hearers disoovered, man
to their grab&Won, that this distinguished per-
former is equally great in chamber music. As may
be supposQ, with such able coadjutors as Mr. H.
Blagrove (violin), and Mr. W. H. Aylward
(violoncello), the trio was played admirably. The
dont of Ideridelmohn and Moschella is • charming
,Troition. and was capita/1y played by N.
hal and Miss Aylward, upon two splendid
Kurd grand pisinfortet a novelty in our pound
room. Vies Aylward sang Mendeheohn's beautiful
soma, "Infetice," with much sereeuese and expres-
sion ; also two English songs very tastefully, and
with correct intonation. Mr. H. Barnes's solo
wu given with that Idyls and finish which is so
characteristic of this celebrated violinist. The pro-
gramme, altogether, seems to have been judiciously
selected, sad the numerous and highly fashionable
audience evinced the pleasure and satisfaction which
a reedy good concert always affords. The usual bane
looking orchestra was on thisoocasion tastefully °rue.
muted with flowers—from the nursery of Mr.
Hinman—and the effect from the room was very
rod._
yr ILTenilln 1{171.1 AnIOCIATION. We have
already stated that it has been suggested that a match
should take plus at the prise meeting at Roundwal,
which commensal es the 22ad instant, between •
given number of members of the Ist and 2nd
Wainer', and we are glad to hear that the idea is
likely to swami a practical form, the hon. secretary
(Mr. Kelsey) haying, we are informed, already been
furnished with the names of a number of capital
shots who are willing to enter. The following
gentlemen will probaMy represent the let battalion :
—Ensign Janes Brown, Colour-Serjeant W. J.
Wilton, Sergeant Fervent, Sergeant Butler, Private
Watson, Private W. Young, Colour-Sergeant
Graham, Corporal Thomas, Private Heppenstall,
Sergeant Jeffrey., Sergeant A dey, Corporal
Davis Sergeant White, Sergeant Bese, Corporal
Monday, Sat Barnes, Sergeant Titt,

the 2nd battalion who are likely to shoot we find
the following: Captain Cochrane, bent Hitchcock,
Lieut. Hayward, Ensign Aristie, Sergeant Neste,
It:X:t Randall, Sergeant Brown, Surgeon
1 Private Applegate, Private Bergen,
Prorate Raker, Private H. Hitchcock, Private
Chive's, Private C. Chinn, and Private F. Hitch-
cock. An entrance fee of 10e. ed. has been pro-
posed, the winners to divide the stakes .as may be
agreed between them. The velar of the prises
announced to be contended for, is, we perceive,
nearly £3OO. We may, therefore, anticipate that the
entries for the serials prises will be very numerous,
and nothing but favourable weather is now required
to ensure a splendid meeting.
Forint COAL. —We understand that Mr. Wyndham
Pain has presented to the Salisbury and South
Wilts Museum the piece of fossil noel exhibited by
him at the show of the Wilts Horticultural Society,
