ILL/NALLY WISHING.
Henry Newberry was summoned for illegally fishing
on Friday, September 18th. Mr. Weston prosecuted
and Mr. S. Watts, of Yeovil, defended.—William
Pomeroy, keeper in the employ of the Dorchester

on the look-out for people Illegally fishing, and in the
morning, about hall-pest ten, he saw Henry Newberry
with his father and another man in the meadow,
between the Heiden Newton road and the railway.

Defendant had a stick in his hand. He stooped down
close by the river, and in a few minutesout a
fish. The other two men came on close and one
of them took up the fish and put it in hie pocket. The
three men then went on together towards the
turnpike-coed. He called out and said "Well,
William' you've got 'em, then 1" They looked
round, but made no answer, and went on to
the road. Witness followed them, and they
then went over to the meadows on the Burton aide
of the road, and ran along under the hedge thwarde
Dorchester. He had known Newberry for some time,
and had no doubt he was the man.—For the defence,
Henry Wells, labourer, of Grove-buildings, said on
the clay in question he was in company with the
defendant. He first sew him about seven o'clock. He
' went with him to Troytown, and was with him till
about ten minutes past eleven. On their return they
I met a man named James Jeffery near Gray's-bridge,
at twenty minutes to eleven. They then went to
witness's house, and the itetendant, as far as he knew,
went home.—The Bench stopped the cam at this
stage, and dismissed the summons, believing it to be a
case of mistaken identity.
William Newberry was summoned for illegally
fishing.—William Pomeroy, the keeper, gave prac•
tically the game evidence as in the last case. Defen-
dant admitted to him he was there, and asked him

a tendency with all of us to lean on thaw who are greater
and abler than ourselves. This tendency runs through all

and all men that our confidence and trust is to be in God,

terrible calcining* of life.
While a nation values, and rightly values the great and
gifted lives which the Almiehty gives it—and thaa a good
life no greater gilt can God bestow—yet it is dunooour-
ine to G 4 for a nation to place its supreme confidence in
man. We are to accept all such gifts with uevoutest
thankfulness; we ere to honour such liven when they are
given; but we err grerioualy when we forget the; slier
all they have been given to us by WI, and when they are re-
called, while we bow in submission, we should tilt have
confidence in God, that Ile will continue to Mee Me

sphere—in the Church and Kingdom of God we are to
believe that all true mite ass bestowed by Hun, tom these
gilts will be continued in bright succenion in We Church
until God's anal purpose is accomplished. What we all
need at this supreme hour of the Cour& and the world
alike is more fgth in God. That faith has been worn down
to the faintest lines; we need to mass it clear arid
emphatic. We have been so Gingered with the po were of
man, with the grand achievements of intellect with the
unfolding elite vast domains, that we have almost deified
intellect and forgotten God. This cannot bus good for us.
We must strive anew to bring the faith of God down to
all that concerns env life, and the life of men and nations;
we must thoroughly and sincerely trust God, and it thus
lesson is taught us by the loud and solemn events of the
nations, these events will not tar happened in vain.
And, indeed, we see here good does foilow such; we can
trace greedy the good which the long a Amines and the
death of President Gerfield have accomplished.
The conflict of parties, the widening gal between
them, has been largely silenced and closed. The
nation over his soffering and prostrate body has
learned Its unity ; the sincere sympathy of this country
has knit the two nations so closely in brotherhood
and goodwill, that no ordinary strain shall be
able to wrench it render. In striking ways hat God
already evinced the blessing welch has followed this dire
calamitr and sorrow; and thus may we all, in leaser
spheres and events as in the greater, learn to trust God,
and to see in all His dealings with men and nations, the
hand of wisdom and the heart of love, bet our trust
ever be on the living God. If this further lesson be
learned by the American nation, their President will not
have sagersd and dad in vain; but from his Math blew
hags as great and precious shell have coins as from his
lit..

The circumstances and the manner of his death have
lessons which we must not overlook. We are taught with
what perila and dangers all greatness is associated. This fact
has been brought home to the minds of meu in our day, in a
manner in which it has not been taught in any previous
period. There is • lawlessness abroad, such as. perhaps. no
other period in the worlds history has wit ; there lea
disregard of We ; • breaking away from the natural
restraints of ordinary law sod society ; an utter renew°n

We, from which we ourselves are not free, which make

• spirit should prevail in communities where the
ri.bm of utisertabip are trampled down, yet it
comes with startling effect in a nation where
freedom in its largest measure is possessed, and' where its
representatives might be supposed to enjoy complete
immunity from danger. Yet even hare we find the teat of
citizens the mark for the assassin's bullet, and the spirit
of political corruption and envy wreakinc its vengeance
On the purest of rulers and stateemeo. Them foots are
saddening in the extreme, and fill the mind amoet with
distrust of the future of the world. And yet the cure of
these evils is found in the very deeds themselves. That
corruption which was so vigorously assailed by President
Garfield, and which is a foul blot in the political life of
America; and of which every honest American is
has received a more deadly wooed

have received in his life. His life has been the price he
has had to pay for political integrity end uprightness.

But though we speak thus of earthly distinction,
ought not to be supposed that it does not bring its com

forward on Its career of greaser, and the thought and
knowledge of conferring distinguished good upon country

see enough of danger and sorrow in their possession' to
make us neither envious of their gifts nor distrustful of

4. The mourning in connection with the death of
Preeident Garfield teaches us to recognise the large and
lasting good, which In his death no less than in his life be
has achieved. Ken know him, his own countrymen know
him through these weary weeks of struggle and suffering
as they did not know him, and were not likely to know
him in his life. They know how transcendent the gifts
of Government and wise statesmanship were which he
pagaise4 and honestly consecrated for good of his counter ;
its which migbt have been largely obscured by Political
faction; but which in the silence of (union have been
brought Into vivid light Nor are these glib likely to be
forgotten; the pureness of his motives; his genuine
patriotism ; his politica disinterestedness •, these are
virtues which are certain to be remembered by his coun-
trymen, and to Produce, we trust, some permanent
impression on them Already we bane been told that his
death has united North and South as they have never
been united, at beet, since the great civil war, In which
General Garfield himself played • distinguished Part.
Here, too, In our own land, • lend which has the largest
int.mst in a permanent goodwill with America, and which
has been cemented by the profound sympathy &gummed
during the great misistiters, too, the good Warted b/ the
imas and death of the resident is unrolstakable, an the re-
„motion by the Stock Exchange ole dayof wounilirt

to matter of his death, the lamented President has been
',innate, and by it has achieved results. no less great and
beneficent than in hie We I A life so ended need not to be
deplored.
' Nothing is here for tears; nothing to wall,
Or knock the breast- no mahatma, no contempt

And what may quiet us in a death so noble."

*Mid net be Stied far by It ha has

taught limos of supreme nobLenees, which we well may
believe will not be lost upon his nation nor the world •
and, although by. and bye the days of mourning will end,
and the world return to its strifes and struggles, yet we
may well believe that much of the good already visible
may remain to ennoble end purify the lives or men, and of
his own people in • large doom. That this must be in, we
cahoot doubt, if we have faith in an alleles and goad
Providence. Unless that death had been regarded 00 011rtita
to be fraught with looting good we cannot believe that
God would have permitted it. Such lives are not to be
thought of ea beodLealy to be thrown away. "Precious la the
sight of the Lard is the death of His saints ;" end precious
we may well believe has been the death of President
Garfield, and we neeed not doubt that the memory of a
life so gifted. so heroic, so strong in purpose, of good and
Medium so simple in its Christian loath, will be • lasting
blessing to the nation, let no hope to the world.
Never were the worts of his nation's poet more fitting—
" Lives of groat man will remind us,
We can make our lives sublime;
And deporting leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time.'
& Ono further truth I will meotioss, perhaps the most
significant of all, as sosseeted by this mourning for
President Garfield, is that nothing can be swoomplished by
any of no that can prove lasting or good, unless by Ms
spirit of sacrifice. President Garfield has fallen a martyr
for his country. good. Be has sacrificed himself in Me
interest of his people. This seem, to have been the
nett which has actuated him in all his history, strug-
gling bravely with early poverty and tariship ; and, with
strong wilt, without which no man can achieve anything
for himself or others, be ultimately consecrated his gilt.
and powers to the good of his country and Me service of
, God. And who will say that, in this last and crowning
I act of sacrifice, he has not nobly fulfilled life's end and
done the will of God. No fitter end could have followed
such a life. Dark sod sorrowful its it may seem, yet
around it are men the grand lights of self-devotion,
adherence to truth and righteousness. And thus dying.
he has bequeathed lessons of large moment to all of tie
I who will learn; that the path ot true nobleness; the path
of true soccer of true good for ourselves or others, is
the path of self-sacrifice. Lot no learn this lemon, where
President Garfield learned at the Oros& of Christ. Let us
be baptised with it. spirit. Let as live in its spirit, and
than shall our life be noble and beautiful alas; and death,
when it cameo, will not tind us unprepared, nor will it ead
prematurely our usefulness ; but will fitting dem our
