ANOTHER WAGGON AMIDE:Cf.-0U Monday morning
Mr. Ward's waggon wax coming shown hill with about
seven LODS of stone, when about a dozen yards before the
Traveller's Rest, the waggon came bodily down. Fortu-
nately neither horse nor man washurt, and the stone was
removed in the course of the day.
Panirrivii IlEviinnisv SCHOOL TREAT.— On Thursday
afternoon the children of the Primitive Methodist Sunday
school had their treat. They assembled at the school,
Fortunes Well, and paraded the streets with a procession
In which were abundance of banners, and singing in first-
rate style. They then went to the Castle grounds, and
had tea and games, returned about nine o'clock, singing,
and all agreed they had had a most pleasant time.
Tut STORAL—The great rain of Sunday night hrought
down very large quantities of stone and soil from the hill,
and at Chesil the drains were stopped and some houses
flooded. Opposite the Chesil tank was • great lake, two
feet deep, and the footpath up the hill to Priory was a
running river which cut deeply into the cliff. At the
Grove the water in some places was 18 inches deep.

PORT PANITLRY AUTHORITY.
A letter was received from the Local Government Board
enclosing a letter from the Portland Loral Board to Mr.
titurt, M.P„ asking him to apply to the Local Government
hoard that Weymouth Local Board might be appointed
Port Sanitary authority of this district, or, if not, the
Board of Guardians of the Union. If not, then that
the Harbour of Weymouth should be included in their
diatrict
The Tows CLERK said the Weymouth Board took the
charge of all vessels in front of their district; it was an
equitable arrangement at prerent, but the propositions of
the Board were most unfair.
Mr. THOMAS said they made them understand there was
• Local Board at Portland when the Prince of Wales
came down, now they were reaping the benefit of having
a Local Board, and they did not like it.
It was resolved—That the Town Clerk be requested to
reply to the communication received from the Local
Government Board with reference to the limits of the
Port Sanitary authority of the Weymouth and Melcombe
RWs district, and point out to them that the extent of
their limits is different from the statements contained In
the memorial to Mr. Stull, and that it lignite co-extensive
with their limits, and theta great injustice would be done
them if they be included with Portland Harbour in the
Portland district
. . .

-6;n7;l7nTaiii-inously.
Capt. Kelsey applied for permission to erect a Bag-staff
in front of the Royal Dorset Yacht Club House.
Perrnbuion was granted to erect one, of not lees height
than that in front of the Victoria Hotel, subject to
removal at the pleasure of the hocal Board.

FOR? OF •lIATING NCINANCIS IN ERR EARN.
The Town Clerk presented a report of the some due
(ruin owners of land in the Park, for abating nuisances in
the Park. Among the sums appeared one against Mr.
Milledge.
The worthy RLD6RMAN said that was quite • mistake,
he certainly saw some mud being put on some of his lend;
but he ordered it to be stopped, as he would not have his
land disgraced with it—(laughter). He had had • larger
piece filled up properly at a leas price, and he was not
going to pay an imposition.
Mr. Luat did not think that defence would hold good
in • court of law.
The following was the list of money due from the
owners of land in the Park for filling up the same —Mn.:
Carter, £4O; Mr. Milleige, l 9 sa. 74. ; Mr. Robinson,
4:9 16a. 104.; Miss Penny, .Ell 3a. 114.; Captain !lemon,
Ti.LII lid. Conservative Land Society, £7B To. fid. ;
Ditto, .Cll Si. 9d.; Mr. Lock, £444 10,.; Mr. Hobbs,
£3l 151. Mr. W. Eliot £5.
Resolved that the Town Clerk be authorised immediately
to enforce payment thereof.
NUMMI. DRAINAGE. OF THE PARK.

The plans of Sir John t,oode for the subsoil drainage of
the Park had not been sent; but a letter was received on
the subject from Sir John, which the MAYOR Yid they
would be pleased to see bore Sir John's signature. Ilts
life had been despaired of, and the medical gentlemen
were obliged to open his windpipe. In a postscript Sir
John wrote that the .131011 drainage would not at all
interfere with the laying of the proposed new road in
Itanelagli-street.
