me consternation was caused on Wednesday after-
noon by a pair of horaes galloping through the town with
a waggon, without any driver. They belonged to Mr.
(lenge, and were at the South-Western goods station,
when an engine driver gave a shrill blast with the whistle
on his locomotive—for what reason does not appear it
startled the horses, and they galloped away at a great
pace, never stopping till they reached their stables at
Stinsford. Fortunately, they did not COIDO into collision
witn anything in the streets. •
We are pleased to hear that the Incorporated Church
Building Society have made a grant of £lOO towards the
fund for re-building of Holy Trinity church. Messrs.
Tilley, the builders, are making good Progress with the
work. Already the walls are so high that the windows on
the south able are nearly completed, and the new church
promises to be • good specimen of ecclesiastical architec-
ture. In the matter of funds a large sum remains to he
provided, and we hope that there will be a general effort
made in the bazaar announced for September next.

that in consequence of the high musical talent exhibited
by Mr. Norman in the duett which lie played with his

vice as organist in the Parish Church, the vicar of Fording-

Tile IMlterr Mittel t.—The regiment was alisbandel on
Friday last, on the completion of ti days training. In no ;
former year has ate strength been 60 small or its drill so
bad. The inspection took place on Thursday. In the
morning Colonel Ilankey, of the 'firth brigade depot, '
inspecte•l the kite, ate., anal in the afternoon the regiment
was reviewed by him on Poundbury. The weather was
fine, and a larger number of spectators assembled than we
have seen for years: still. there were but few carriages.
and both county gentry anal local military were conspicuous
by their absent. The regimental muster was as follows:
—l.ieut.aColonel Hall (in command), Majors Hall and
Harman, Nlajor and Adjutant Claprott, Surgeon D. Curme,
Assistant-Surgeon liecimus Curiae, six captains, eight
lieutenants, 31 sergeant., eight airu 11111 l era, 2.4 corporals.
and 439 privates—the full strength being :ill. The total
number of the effeeth es in the regiment was ..—One
lieutenant-colonel, two majors. seven captains, eight
lieutenant, on adjutant, ame surgeon. one assistant-
surgeon, 31 sergeants, fl drummers. 23 corporals, NH
privates, the aggregate being 514. Thus there were 33
absentees, :CI of them being privates. As in former years,
the local ride corps kept the 17010101 during the inspection.
They numbered rank and tile, under the command of
Ilmlges oral Williatip., with Battalion quarter-
master-Sergeant Newman, and Sergeants Runisey, Cross,
and Harris. A • t the spectators were—Mr. anal Mrs.
A. E Manuel anal thirty, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Burnett (the
Mayor and Mayoress), Mr. G. Warry anal the Misses
Warry, lars. Clapcott anal party. Mr. and Mrs. Webster
(CharminaWr) and friends, the Rev. W. 1.. Barnes, the
Rev. W. C. Oelmrn (lathier). chaplain), Mr. W. Thouipson,
Mies Slade, Mr. J. Thompson (Wcy th), the Rev. W.
Frquhart, 1/r. Aldridge. the Rev. H. F. Jones, Mr. E
Pearce, J.P., anal Colonel Olalfielal. The regiment, on
reaching the ground, was drawn up in line awaiting the
arrival of Colonel Hankey, who at three rosle up, his side
dr cam. being Capktin I.e Marckant, of the Royal Horse
Artillery at Dorchester. The inspecting offer was
received with the usual salute, anal the playing of the band.
Colonel Ilankey then rale along the fronr and rear of the
line inspecting the accoutreinents, after which the
regiment marched past at quick time in quarter-distance
column, the movement being performed with a good deal of
looseness anal unsteadiness. Having counter marched the
regiment returned at the trail, and then, taking ground
to the rear, was again put into line on the original forma-
tion. Major hell then put them through the manual
exercise, and this was done really well, nothing could be
better, and we give them full credit for it : as for the rest,
like Gambetta's levies, they were " • mob with mu-abets,"
After advancing the regiment retired by fours from the
right of companies, anal formed quarter-column on No. 5.
Other battalion movements followed, but a were in-
differently alone. tinder Major !Jarman the regiment
skirmished, but the men were rather wild in their notion
of direction, and, as to firing, made no sort of distinction
in the inter as to right or left tiles. After this display,
Major Bower anal Capt. Fryer put the regiment through a
few evolutions, with similar unsatisfactory result; and the
inspecting °direr was not elow to express his disapproba-
tion. Ultimately they were again fornied in line, and the
inspection was concluded by a general salute. Colonel
Henke), then rode up ka Colonel Hall anal briefly
aldreasal him. The regiment then marched to the
barrack square, anal shortly after entered the town, anal
were dismissed. Next morning early the turn began to
leave the town, anal all cleared off during the day. In no
previous year has 60 little interest been taken in the
regiment, anal it seems to be a relief to the inhabitants
generally that they are gone.
