Lose CIIIILDREN.—On Thursday evening, about nine
o'clock, an alarm Wai rai4C.l by the them of two little
girls, nine )ears oil, natoi-41 lake and Niblick, the
children having gone on the hill picking primroses and
hail not returned. A party of about six, including the
Rev. M. Ilankey, at once started on the hill, with lanterns,
in .piest of them. After about three hours' fruitless
search, they returned, and found a telegram hail arrived
at the railway station, saying that the children were in
Dorchester. It seemed on their return from the hill they
missed their road and got on the railway. Taking the
wrong direction they wandered on, through both tunnels,
1 passing two or three trains, until they arrived at Dorches-
ter. The Itectcr at once sent directing them to be taken
care of until next reins, when they returned not much
I the worse for their adventure.
