Government are about to try something to make this
venerablif ruin picturesque. At the suggestion of Colonel
Akers, ('B., a number of roots of ivy have been planted

Accrios SAMS. —The spring season, which is at
Weymouth usually prolific of salvo by auction, has been
unusually so this year. Several large and well-known
establishments have been broken up, and their "toots "
dispersed hither and thither notably the Royal Library,
which is being prepared for the entree of the new Dorset
Yacht Club, and the books and other property in which
have been disposed of by the hatunier of that well-known
firm, Moors. Minorite and Son. It was fitting that such
an old Weymouth name should ho engaged at this

seemed to be highly effireciated by the purchasers. for so
anxious were they to secure a souvenir of the departed,
that many of the articlei fetched larger prices than were
given at their purchase. In spite of the sale and removals
we are informed by a very large ratepayer well acquainted
with house property that the number of houses millet it-,
much smaller than it was at this time last year.
