BILIDPOBT,

Home FROM ALDMISHOT. —After a rather trying
week at Aldershot, the Bridport "A " Company
D.R.V., were greeted by a large and rather demon-
strative crowd at the raoway station, which the com-
pany reached between nine and ten p.m. on Saturday
last. The men looked title or none the worse for a
week's exposure to the rays of the sun and occasional
drenching showcrs, but which proved preferable to the
nover-to-be forgotten week at Burton Bra 'stock, in
1880. F..rming i..to marching order, the band, under
Bugle-Major 1. ostec, which had been in readiness,
led them into the town where large numbers were
ready to greet thee. A halt was made at the Drill
Hall, where the corps was dispersed. The Beaminster
continent found vehicles ready to receive them, and
an whilh they were conveyed home.

HOW THE FIRST WHEAT WAS SOWN IN

AMERIcA

Now that our Ame—ric-;;;;;O-sirs are reducing the
British farmer t ) despair by their enormous expor-
tat'ons of wheat., it may be interesting to recall the
fact that until about the end of the first quarter of the
seventeenth century—that is to say, 250 years aro—
England supplied the north Amei:csa colonies with
most of their wheat. Since that time, however.
Northern America 1:1,3 been gradually growing more
Independent in the matter of the supply of bread-stuffs.
Wheat was first sown in those colonies in 1592, Gosnold,
the traveller, scattering the first seeds on the Elizabeth
Ulan* lii Massachusetts, during his exploration of
that coast. It le curious to reflect that it was English
energy and daring which first of all supplied America
with the means of entering, nearly three centuries later,
Into a disastrous competition with the motheremuntry.

The °Nerve' says :—At the Cabinet CrAincil it was,
we nuclei-mead, decided, practical y, to insist up m the
LanthU aa amended when at let the House at four
o'clock on Friday wornios. In the event ot the House
of Lords resisting this decision, Parliament will he
prorogued as soon as the financial business can be
wound up, and will be gammon° I to mlet in Novem-
ber, when the band Bill will be re-introduced. We
understand that there is no dispoeition on the pert of
her 11.ajesty's Government to carry out the intention,
assigned to them in come quarters, of forcing upon to
Lords in November • Bail more distasteful to there
than the one they 04 Friday night virtually rejletol.

circles to suggest a 4 a compromise on the

yea.• of the passing of the Act.
We are informed that several Conservative Irish
peels called on Lord Salisbury ou Saturday, and ur.;,d
film to withdraw his opposition to the him Land Bad
Their view of the matter appears to be that the
rejection of the Bill wool I be followed by a renewal
of the land agitation, and that this would probably
entail upon them greater losses from the non-payment
of rent than they have yet sustaned.—Daily News.
Lord Salisbury, in addressing the meeting of the
Tory peers, which was held at his residence on Friday,
advised them to eihere to all their amendments to the
Irish Land Bill on the ground that it waa oniy be
their taking this course that they could force ths
Government to make any concessions.
