KINSON.

FRIENDLY SOCIETY ANNIVERB CRY. The annual
gathering of the Kinson Friendly Society took place on
Thursday, Bth inst. The village was thronged with
lads and lasses, dressed in holiday attire, to witness the
procession to the village church, where a most excellent
and appropriate discourse was delivered by the ktev.
Daniel, who feelingly adverted to the loss which the
club had recently sustained by the decease of its medical
attendant, J. W. West, Esq. At the conclusion of the
service the club re•formed, headed by the Kinaon
celebrated brass band,under Mr. Charles Saunders, to a
Sold near the Dolphin Inn, where, under the shade of
one of Stone's gigantic marquees, they partook of a
aumptuous repast provided by Mr. Charles Spencer.
On the removal of the cloth the chairman, Mr. Elliott,
proposed the loyal toasts which were enthusiastically
responded to. The musical performances of the band
tended greatly to enhance the pleasures of the day, and
we heartily congratulate Mr. Saunders on their
efficiency. In the course of the day the mentbers
electtd a medical att.twiant ; there were three candi-
dates for the vacancy occasioned by the death of Dr.
West, via., Drs. Crsbb and 'Penny, of Poole, and
Dr. Coats, of Bournemouth, when the latter gentleman
was elected by an overwhelming majority. About 200
members compose the Kinson club. and since its
formation, thirty years ago, the funds have gradually
increased, insomuch that they have, at the present
tune, £1,500 in hand. We were glad to observe so
many honorary members and other influential persons
seated at the festive boar t, all of whom r;ght merrily
enjoyed themsaves ; in fact, the utmost cordiality and
good fellowship characterised the proceedings of the day.

THE YEOMAHRT.—Captdo Menders, the adjutant of
the Prince of Wales Own Regiment of Wiltshire Yeo-
manry Cay.ilry, writs*, by c ininiand of Colonel the
Marquis of Salisbury, to the Salisbury Journal to say:
"Application have been Made to 911 the officera com-
manding the different troop' of the regiment, arid not
one of them has any knowledge of the occurrence of
any such atrocities as you describe. And the remit of
careful inquiries made by myself and others, under his
lordship's directions, has led to no confirmation whatever
of the truth of the charges made, but, on the contrary,
to the conviction that no such sots took place. This
conviction," adds the gallant captain, "has b.-en
strengthened by the testimony of the clergy and princi-
pal inhabitants of Warminster, who have joined in a
memorial to iris lordship expressing their belief that
nothing in the conduct of the regiment, during their
stay at Warminster, could in any way justify the state-
ments put forth."—The business begins altogether to
look rather serious for onr contemporary. We trust
that for the honour of the Press he will he able to show
how be arrived at his information, and to expose any
hoax that may have been perpetrated."
