ye may walk heneatly towards them that are without, and
that ye may have lack of nothing." The reverend vn.
Heinen remarked that the epistles of St. Peel 11.ot only

by we could worthily obt•in food, clothing, habitation,

apostle's injunction to "walk honestly towards them

ably before the world. lie then proceeded to show our
mutual dependence, that the rich cannot do without the
poor, nor ten the poor do without the rich. The rewaid
of those who lived as tl.e apostle indicated was " Lech

needful. In contusion lie adverted to the advantages
of h.ntt .1.1. and offered some advice en true enjoy-

There were arches in various part., sod the village

On Friday an inquest wu held before the East Devon
coroner and a rearest•ble jury wish Mr. It. Greenfield
to coon. Ater Leering the evidene., • verdict of
"Temporary Insanity.' was returned. Da:eased was
gr,ssly requeteil in this town, and by all who knew
biol.

Mr. KADDIA having proposed the usual loyal toast.,
which were duly honnur,d, prorated "the health of the
Bishop and elergy of this diocese. They were very for-
tunate in having *nab a good bishop and such excellent
clergyman. He was much obliged to Mr. Chown, for
the good advice he had given them in his sermon that
morning as to brotherly love. Hs hoped it would always
exist in the pariah, and he was glad to think that there was
more of it there now than formerly. The. RI V. A. Spring
Rice, vioar of the parish, if at home would have been
present, but though absent, he would be much pleased
to bear that they had enjoyed themselves that day. He
oonpled with the toast the nausea of the Rev. J. H.
Chowne, the Hon. nod Rev. A. Spring Ciee, and Rev. R.
L. Tonslinson—(ebeers).
Rev I. H. Crofts returned thank,, end said if Mr
Spring Rice had been there he would have done no for
himself, but as he was absent for the benefit of his
health, ha begged to dolt for him. He had had much
pleasure in residing among them, and though shoot to
resign the curacy if the parish, he shoal,' still live there
as a gennlensan independent in action, and independett
in thought--(cheersh He was not sure whether it would
not be better for the parish if • third clergyman—an
independent man— resided there—(cheers).
Rev. Lu. L Toutigeon briefly returned thanks, and
, hoped the society would be carried on in peace and liar-
: stony and meet with success.

Mr. KIDDLI then vropesed "The health of the
Army, Navy, and Volunteers." The army and navy
were renowned for their deeds, and the volunkers, who
were a newly-trained branch of the aervices, he was
sure would, if called out, chew themselves quite able to
Jo their work. They had no vo'unteers at Netherbuiy
and Beaminster ; they were quite eat lafied with having
the Bridport artillery and rill° volunteers no near them,
and he went to bed every night feeling perfectly safe
from any enemy in consequence—(cheers and laughter).
He coupled with the knat the name of Private Wiliiamr.
Mr. WILLIAMS said he warn not there,, • volunteer,
but being one, it would be very remiss of him if he did
not respond to the toast. The rifle volunteers had jlts
had an arduous week of it in the camp at Lrlworth,
and had • great deal to do there. He woe much obliged
' for the kiwi way in which they bad drank the toast--
1 (cheers).

Mr. Kwortug said the next toast wet one nearer home
—" Seems to the Netherbury Friendly Society," and
with that toast he coupled Mr. Read the worthy mere.
tary, Mr. John Davy the treasurer, and Mr. Hine the
trustee. He hoped the s ciety would meet with every
scone..; it was a large parish and there were many
highly respectable agriculturist' in it, and RS many of
their men were in the club if they came forward and
supported it, they should get a strong club. His own
good wishes were for the club, and he would do every.
thing he could to ensure it, success—(loed oheere).

Mr. Met returns, thanks in aid it was the
lifteeutli time he had had to respond to the toast. He
was not present at the commencement of the new
society, being ill at the time, hut they had thooght
'Toper to re elect him as treasurer, be would therefore
HMI the duties of the office to the hest of his ability,
and was oblird to them for the compliment they had
paid him in doing so.

Mr. HINZ also -returned thanks and rejoiced that the
new society had such a goot chairman to preside over
it, and under his able guidance he felt sure it would go
on prosperously.
Mr. MUD also returnel thanks, and said this was the
fourth fletherbury Club of which he hart been secrctary.
It was only a month sine, that • distribution of the
fends of the previous club had taken place, and he
had made op his mind not to be secretary again but
ending the members wished him to be he agreed to
cositioue. lie then ent red into some details about the
club, sod said some slight alterations had been made in
the rules to increase the strength of it. Last year the old
club paid £7O for burial fees, so that with regard to the
question of sick pay, if they had no direct sick pay
fend, he thought that was an indirect one, am it was a
Igreet help to widows who perhaps had spent their last
shilling upon their husband, during their illness. Their
late rule. admitted no one under 18 years of sge, this
had been altered, and ay many younger boys wanted to
join, this society would give en advantage to them in
enabling them to save their money by putting it in this
dub, and another day It would boot great use to them.
These societies; he thought were not properly under-
' stood or more members would join them ; he considered
I they had • great morel effect as if a member was CsoE-
, *witted of felony he would be expelled. lie hoped the
' present club would be prosperous. The number of mem-
hers in the late club before it was broken up was 88 ;
the present one numbered 187 already, and more were
going to enter the next club day (cheers.)
Mr. KEDDLE proposed the "Visitor., " to which Mr.
Rails responded.
Mr. HMI proposed "the health of the Chairman."
They were all under great obligations to him for his
endeavours to support the club.
The toext was drank with musical honours and was
loudly cheerml.

Mr. KILDDLE hardly know how to reply to the
toast whieh had been no kindly drank. He was quite
undeserving of what had been said of him (no, no).
He was always ready to do anything for the benefit of
the club, and should he proud to assist in anything for
the welfare of the pariah. He did not despair of the
saaressof the club, and hoped, if spared, to use them
all before tail time next year at Hatohlands (cheers.)
new. J. H. CHOWN' then proposed the health of big
friend the via Chairman, with whom be had always
been on very friendly terms. He won liked by them all
and he was only exprossitu the feeling of every one
present in winking him every health and happiness—
(maxima honours and cheers).
_

Mr, Hurt returned thanks, and mid if thorn ores any-
thin' be could do for the club or the parish generally
he should be most happy to do it—(ediums).
The toasto of "The Prero" and " The Lodi& were
also proposed and responded to.
Mr. Williams having been loudly called on sang the
comic long " Katousaht an." and was mush applauded.
Severol other soap were AIM sung, after which the
company adjourned, and the members having formed
outside the Inn, marched in protrusion to a field near,
where dancing wu kept up to the capital music of the
liridport Artillery band, and other sports indulged in to
a late hour. The street outside the Inn wos like a fair,
there being • great many standing. and a large number
of people, among 4 whom the fair sea mustered very
strongly.

quite despaired of ever getting my lootneeded

Now, I know his Majesty can say a think or two if
