breed of Homing Antwerp pigeons, a society hae
lately been formed in Dorchester, and a flying match
cane off on Monday morning last, for a silver cup,
given by the president, Mr. F. R. Sutton, of Came.
01 nly young birds hatched in 1880 were to compete, and
the one reaching home first was to gain the cup. Nine
entries were received, and there would doubtless have
been more but for the Ices of several young birds in a
heavy thunderstorm last week. The birds were started
altogether from one basket about balf-past, seven, and
I, about 42 minutes, Mr. Charles Parsons 's "Plato,"
• bird under four months old, reached Dorchester, and
won the cup, having flown about 950 yards a minute.
The hon. secretary, Homing Pigeon Society, Dorches-
ter, will give all particulars respecting the society.
THE JULY FAIR.
A groat many buyers and sellers attended the fair
Tuesday, the numbers in town being as largess on pre-
vious July fain, and • fair amount of business was
done. About 7,000 sheep were penned, a few beasts
were also offered, and in the afternoon there were the
further attractions of a wool sale by Mr. T. linsor,
and a sale of horses by Mr. G. Ensor, so that, although
the Corn Exchange was open, the attendance there
was very small, and the business quite nominal.
Mews. Duke's was the first sale concluded, and in
this prices had been found looking upwards, and with
a good attendance business was better than had been
expected, best things especially meeting a good
demand. Horn ewes made 42.. &I. t 524., horn

The Researe Ft.scr.—The ships of the Reserve
Squadron left Portland on Tuesday, and during the
night anchored in Torbay. On the following day
they left for Bantry Bay to join the Channel Squadron.
On arriving at Berehaven H.R.H. the Duke of Edin-
burgh will place his .qua Iron under the orders of
Re sr-Admiral Hood. 'The two squadrons, with their
flagships, will then proved to Vito, but will arrive
again in the Channel three weeks after leaving Bantry
Bey. The Channel Squadron will then ff.) to Port-
land. Prior to their &spend m there will be a review
of the united squadrons at Spithead.
Tlin TORPID() BOAT.—On Thursday a steam trial
txok place at Portsmouth with No. 142 pinnace, a new
Invention connected with torpedo warfare, which
entirely abolishes the use of a rudder, the vessel being
steered by a screw propeller. The invention is that of
Colonel Menem, and the boat has been built by Mr.
T. Samuel White, of Cowes, isle of Wight. The speed
obtained at the recent trisls has averaged eight to nine
knote per hour, whi h is is similar rate of speed
attained by a 45-feet steam lifeboat. At the trial there
were present—Admiral Foley (admiral superintendent
of the dockyard), Almiral Sir Houston Stewart,
K.C. B. (controller of the Navy), Mr. Oliver, Mr.
Iceley, and Mr. Newmaa of the engineering depart-
ment 1 the dockyard, together with the surveyor and
the builder. The trial was considered very satisfactory.
Not only can the boat be turned on her own axis—
so to speak—by reason of the propeller being so con-
structed as to be shifted at any angle, but the whole
of the machinery can be works)! by one man only, if
required.
ig s cox riON or rim iteargette.—The coastguardsman
from the notion, ships of the Reserve Squadron were
inspected by Rear-Admiral the Duke of Edinburgh,
on Saturday afternoon. They assembled to the num-
ber of more than 1,000, and marched to the Naval
Recreation mod, headed by the band of the
Boric owe.. It having become known that the review
was to take olsce, there was a large number of persons
present. L'ofortunately weather was most an-
favourable, torrents of rain filing at intervals during
the inspection. As the gymnasium was thrown open
those present were enabled to watch the proceedings
under cover. About hell-p,st two the Duke arrived
on the ground, and was received with a general salute,
the bind II .ying •he National Anthem. While this
was bring played His Royal Highness and the officers
present etorxl with bared heads, which mast have been
anything hao a pleasant p osition, as rain wa, failing
heavily at the time. The brigade, which was divided
into two battalions then marched past the saluting
Seq. after which they wee put through • series of
mats ivres and exercises, including bayonet and
sword exorcise. Considering that the men have only
• short p• nod of training annually, during which they
can drill together in large numbers, the various
exercises were carried out in a most efficient manner,
the sword exercise being particularly well done. A
duge on bber of Berme/en boys were alko present,
under InAnicting-Boatswain South, and as they
m orchel past the Duke he remarked on their smart
appearance. Al the close of the inspection the brigade
again marched back to the Uovernment Pier, and were
sin af.erwarle conveyed to their several ships. The
Duke of Edinburgh WAN loudly cheered by the
parownger, on Oa Premier as he or:Andre.] on his
launch, and His 11 .yal Highness froquently acknow,
ledged the compliment.

rut Ituts forming part of the scheme, will be disappointed
at the arrangement whith has been made on that point.
I corusider that it will be better to make the Literary
Institute a s- pirate, thoush kindred, Institution, and, by
retaining in my own hands the right to occupy • part of
the premiss for twenty-one Tiara I secure for the
Literary lustit whatever may be its ultimate charac-
ter, the prestige as well at the substantial advantages of
being at first at all event; under the tame roof with the
Museum, and my hope is that at the end of that period
the Uterary Institut* will be foion•I to be so valuable that
the Council will be glad to give it a further period of
occupancy. At the saute time, it is clearly expedient that
the Cellnell should have the power of occupying the whole
house it, at the end of the 21 years, they should fln I it
necessary to dose.

release her. He then caught her by the throat and
threatened to throttle her. She had not slept in the
house since, as she was afraid of what he would
do. This conduct had been going on for some

not so bad as he did now. When he was sober he was

The forty-fourth annual meeting of this institution was
held en Monday last. Cap'ein Ph dits, RN., presided,
and anionzet those present wive—Dr. Rhodes, Mr. C.
Penny, and Mr. Fool's, secretary.
The fourth annual report of to. commit's, stated that
during the pat year no less than 776 paw afflicted persons
have been admitted to the benefits of this institution, •
very large number of whom hare had the blowing of eye-
sight fully restored to Rem. It continued: The past year
has unfortunately been on. of general depression through-
out the reentry; this will, in • great measure, account
for the adverse tait ire of the balance sheet. With
brightening prospects lo,fo-e as the committee
dulge • hope that an appeal to the inhabitants of D rest
and neighbouring counties for increased support will not
be made in vain, and it is hardly neoesthry for us to
enlarge here on the nied for such additional support. The
large number of in-patients ant out-patients at once brines
before our minds the words of our Divine Master—" The
poor ye have with ji,ltl always." Here then is an altar
always at band for an aiming to Him who has so richly
showered His blessines upon us. Constant applicatmns
for admission are being male, and your committee would

couples are swell to gr. at, great to pedals, and swell to

It will thus be seen that the instrument is sufficiently
powerful for the church. It was to be reirette.l that the
organ was not nearly con pbted en Tuesday, which greatly
&barred Mr. Geonzi. Thorpe, A. Ilue. (organist
of Holy Trinity, Wey m c.th), who pre. bled at both
seivices, from making use of an the power which when
completed will be in th, hands of the player. There were no
composition pedals in, the Wald Flute, a very pretty stop,
was not In ;several of the best stops were not pedalled, the
c.iiiplers would not act. so that altogether the organ was
in a very incomplete state. Notwithidending this. how.
I ever. sufficient PTOUliee was given of the p ewer and beauty
I of the instrument. Previous to the services which were in
commemoration of the con.ocration of the church by the
Bishop there was a celebration of the Holy Communion at
elkht
The afternoon service was full choral, and the attend-
ance was very large, the church being crowded to exam,
so that many persons w ate unable to find seats. The
service commenced by the now well.known festival hymn
" Bleared City, Heavenly Salem," which was sung as •
proctssional ti a tune by Doctor Osantlett All the
prayers were intoned by the Rev. W. Barnes (Kona ion),
the first Inure was read by the Rey. J. Stephenson, Rum
9 • (Vicar of St. John's. Weymouth), and the second by
the Rev. A. Hill (Vicar of prima)) The Psalms which were
special for the occasion, vie, the :lei, e'en, and the xlviii,
were chanted with precision and taste by the choir to
chaos by Garrett in D, and IClvey in D. The oanters was
sung to a chant by %Veinal/Any in G. and Dew to one by
It) r.I in O.
A very impressive sermon was preached by the Rev.
Philip Eliot (vicar of Holy Triuity, Bournemouth). from
" Mid no man could learn that song but the hundred awl
forty and four thousand which were redeemed front the
earth." Who are those, the preacher said, that shall be
pnauitted to join ia the songs of the heavenly hosts here-
after I We sing here upon earth our songs of praise, and
clank. and consrese,ions join together in uttering the
yoke of melody. It is meet and right that so it should
be, but who are they that shall be able to leant that song,
that heavenly sone Gely the hundred and forty and four
thousand that shall be redenned from the earth. That is
to say, the whole complete number of the saved people of
the Load.
Whilst the hymn "0. Praise ye the Lord " (to the tune
Umtata Dessanwee) was being song, a collection was made
in aid of the organ fund.
The Rev. J. A. Beazer, the rector, then pronounced the
benediction, and the service concluded with the recessional
hymn "Rack the sound of Holy Voices." which was sung
with beautiful effect.
At the close of the service a tea was held in Mr. Joseph
Hodder's 1101 d, close by the church, to which a large
number of persons itat down. The only drawback to tithe
entertainment was that a chilly wind had set in, and as
there wee no covering of any kind it wan rather uncom-
fortable. The arrangements at the tet tables were,
however, excellent.
'The evening service was, if anything, more largely
attended than the slterncrin. The service was well
intoned by the reetor, tied the sermon. • very eloquent
One. was Preached by tho R iv. Planets S. Forster (curate
of Wy),. Retie).
The cost of the organ is £ll5, and we might add there
is still a debt of something like £l6O on the building and
organ funds.

this proposal with a great amoant of suspicion, and

secostroongdaryly oboojectureedeste t
from
which it emanated. It is •
matter of much congratulation to observe the Christian
and brotherly feeling which pervades the elisions
denominations in this town, and which waa recently
exhibited in the attendance of nearly all the noncon-
furusiat clergymen of the borough at the layieg of the
foundation stone of St. Paul's Church. I have no
desire to lessen thie feeling in w,y way ; on the coo-
Crary I hope it may be largely increased, il that. It
will ever be found to be predominant in everything
which has for its object the snort an 1 spiritual im-
provement of the town. lint it, my opinion it showed
our representative's ignoraw ,d the spirit which
animates disasters of all sect., awl creeds, when he
thought they would deign to accept eecowl-hand an
invitation to tea at his expense. I vrAs not surprises'
very shortly after to hear that, c ,nsidering the source
from which it sprung, the Kopec.' was not received
withthat unanimity with which it warn expected it wo ill
be, and i n one or more instances it w as absolute' y refused.
With regard to the invitation iamb, I have been
trying to find out what are the reasons which impelled
Ms. Schreiber to come forward with such a proposal,
end out of all the varied hypotheses presented before
me I have not been able to come to any decided
opinion. I have heard of a candidate for Parliamentary
honours kissing the children of the "free and Inde-
pendent" burger's in order to inrratiate htmself in
the favour of the parents, and who knows to what
account the treat now proposed to be given to the
children of Poole by our newly-fledged member, at
the expense of a few pounds, may be put to when the
occasion presenta itself? It has always been my
opinion that when a member of Parliament fulfils his
duties conscientiously to his constituents, there is no
further obligation devolving upon him, awl I think
such uncalled-f er generosity is apt to be looked upon
in a way which all right-minded men endeavour to
avoid. Mr. Schreiber has, I understand, during the
pasi week went a personal Invitation to all the religions
bodies in the town, and it remains to be seen whether
that gentleman's influence over the conscientious
scruples of • large number of the people of this t ,wn
will meet with greater rwults than the worthy rector
of St. James. lam of opinion that to accept such an
offer would be to set the illiterate an example which
would present itself in a worse form, and, if all I bear
is true, was prevalent at the late Parliamentary c...ute,t
In this borough.

Whatever other defects this ancient borough may
have, in a social sense—and they are many—it is
satisfactory to find that the moral aspect of affairs has
lately given tokens of vast improvement. The late
political contest, hot and acrimonious as it was, passed
off in a manusr which, taking all things into c .nsiders-
tion, compared most favourably with sane of its pre-
decessors; and at two successive Quarter Sessions the
duties of the lie,: ,rder and blrand Jury have been
almost nominal, there not being a single criminal case
to be adjudicated upon. This latter state of affairs has
certainly invohed the Sheriff in an expenditure for
white " kids ;" but there can be little doubt that the
diminution of crime must be etc,edingly gratifying
alike to the magistrates, the borough Authorities, and
the public; and that Mr. Norton, or hi, successors in
office,would be only too happy if circumstances should
necessitate a repetition of the time-honoured custom on
many future occadons. Such a condition of things, at
all events, reflects great credit on what are unjustly
stigmatised as the "lower classes" of the inbahitants,
and Supt. Hunt and his staff are certainly to be com-
plimented on the efficiency with which they must have
discharged their difficult, and often very delicate,
duties. crime and drunkenness are moral features
which betray, perhaps, more than any others, the
character of a veople, and the absence of thus degrad.
lag elements in Poole is evidence of a striking improve-
ment on pat t.,ne

Unhappily the weather which proved so favourable
