ST. JOHN'S 6UNDaT children of this
school had their annual t-eat on Tueolsy lett. They
ass:mbled at the echo '1 about one o'clock, awl were
subsequently c mveyed in waggons to Stsn:tridge, the
residence of the Rev. C. J. Glyn, where tea wag pro-
vided and where various games and ameaments were
afterwards indulged in. Thar, were lib int 60 or 60
caldron from St. John'e School, and in addition to
those there were also present by in wit ttinn the children
of the schools at Stanbri Ige and Witchampton, air!
, &antler school near Wimborne. The g .thering was,
altogether, a large affair, and the day's proceedings
were of • tery harmonic is and pleasant character.
Inouye—Mr. Thomas D. B. Rawlins. Deputy
Coroner, held an hapset at the Red Lion Inn, Star-
minder Marshall, on Friday last, on the body of
George Sibley, who had drowned hi oself on the pre-
vious evening. The deceased, who had been a soldier,
had recently taken to drink, and on Thursday, whilst
be was suffering very much from its effects, he crawled
miter his bed saying someone was attempting to shoot
him, and in the evening he was seen to run very
swifaz across a field or two, towards the river, and,
on arriving at the bank, he threw his hat up in the air
and then ran and jumped in. His body was recovered
about two hours afterwards. The jury returned a
verdict of " Drowned himself whilst in • state of
temporary insanity."
&sow, TaaaY.—The annual treat of the Church
Sunday School scholars of this parish was held on
Tuesday last. The weather was delightfully fine.
The children, numbering 360, were mastered at the
schoolroom at 3 o'clock. and, headed by the Church of
Ragland Temperance Band,they paraded the different
streets of the town. 01 arriving at the Minster, the
children were taken into the churchyard, where the
Old Hundredth hymn was snug and a prayer off red
by the Vicar. The procntsion was again re-formed,
and marched to the New Vicarage. where the children
were placed under the superintendence of their several
teachers, who regaled them with cakv, tee, Ic., and,
through the kindness' of Mr. Smith, they adjourned to
the lease to indulge in the varlets, kinds of sports pro-
vided for them. The parents and friends, a large
number being present, were then entertained at tea by
the worthy vicar and his wife. The little One. were
delighted with the performance of Punch and Judy,
which had been specially engaged, and who gave two
entertainments during the proceedings. Cricket,
running, tug of war, blind man's buff with bell, jump-
ing in sacks, io. having been freely Indulged in,
the party was called in front of the Vicarage main
before taking their departure. The Rev. IC. F. Trot-
man then addressed the children and their parents
upon the subject of Sunday school education and
spoke at some length upon the rapport whist; the
parents could give the timbers and their children by
personally hearing them repeat their lessons before
coming to school, and by attending the Minster on
Sunday afternoons to hear the lawn explained. The
1t.,. Haney Good then ;proposed nine cheers for the
Vicar and three for Mn. Trotman, which were lustily
given. The evening hymn wasthen snug, and each
child received • bun and departed home, having spent
a most pleasant afternoon. A large number of gentry
of the town and neighbourhood were present. The
proceeding. were enlivened by the Wimborne Minster
glee party, Wimborne Minster hand-bell ringers, and
the Temperance Rand.

With so many platiti dowering at this season, there is
always a tendency. more or less strongly develup,d, to
crowd the greenhouse stages, a practice which is fatal to
good cultivation ; and which in a great inuiti itAlL•Dalli can
be avoided by placing out of doors soy helf•hardy ploohs
supposed to always /coque the protection of glue. All
such plants will do as well, or bett,,r, outside now. it they
are only carefully looked after. Thd most showy flowers
we h.,0 now are the tige.dial and I Hums, and these, AB
they come into bloom, ore placed at the coolest end of the
house, and given a little shade, to kee2 th,m fresh as long
as possible.
FLOWER GARDEN._
. . . _

The maint :Dance of good r- rler an I perfect cleanliness
in the fl 'wee garden should now be the first considraton.
li, unless this is done it is impoesible to enj ,y pleasure*
to the full. The beds should be loolt.d over at levt mice
a week, and have all dtel leaves and withered fi river
stems removed; as also any over-lux iriant or stress In(
growths. which should be converted into cuttings for
stock. Trailing planta must b, neatly pegged down, and
the margins of the beds be kept regularly trimmed. After
heavy rains sweep and roll the walks, it will much improve
their spirarance.
HARDT TIM AND TEM:TA/MD GARDEN.

ROBBERY Olf ARMS IN IRILLAND.
A daring ry of argue has hien oum,Wtted in Cork.

Ailed. There wore on board the esotiin, his wife, a
gen Tempi allier. and one of the crew. About one o'clock
Tburstay morning the captain beard boats rowing W wards
his ship and then a ',umber of nun scramlled up the
vessels si to., Is c thin cl 'or was lock,d, and a sentry
outaile. Th: reVentle °MYR who we. n watch on
deck, saw either nee or six b i.e. The fir •t bitch seised
and took him ti the captain's cabin, tallier him at the
saute time that they hal DO desire te injure thou on
board. The revenue officer was then locked up with the
c tousle, sentries IN jot pled over the door. The robbers'
then proceeded direct to the hold where the arms were
stowed. Twenty owes of arms were taken. and placed on
board their bets. The men then rowed off in the direc-
Ition of Marius, having retneined on board not more than
; half-sn•hour. Having reach'd Marina, they turned, sod
proceeded down the river. No ah•rm was given by either
the captain or ;ermine °Meer wham the haste were still in
sight. Al the time of the robbery the Passage patrol was
outside the dock well, not more than 25 yards from the
ship, and an alarm would assuredly have reached him. At
about three o'clock this morning the Passage Police
received information of the robbery, but there was no trace
of the marauders. The Passage Police attempted t tele-
graph to Cork, but were unable t 'open up whim un ic for
the wire bat been cut in two places. S ib-Inspector Mayne
left Cork for Passage by the first train, and eulisequently
extra police were sent down, in the bops of finding si
of the it len weapons, but without s icons, up to a late
hiur. S a wrests were made during the morning. The
muskets tak An are described as being of the mo it primi!ive
kin I, moule-loaders. smooth bore, longer than the
llartini-Henry rid and worthless ercept at short range.
Its estimated that quite 70 men were engaged in the
rail on the ship Juno. There were If of the crew on
board at the time, these were confined to their berths, the
hatchee being battened •hea a. o.ie of the raiders appears
to have fallen into the hit and been badly injured, as

organised, and had their several duties ausigned to them
by baler,. Twenty woe were distribute I through the
d f om'ng a cordon to prevent interruption. Whistles
were h.a.rd from the shore and the wat r as if signalling
was going on. The captain believes the departure of the
raiders was acceldeted by the accident, as very shortly
after the fall a cry was heard, and they left the ship. He
ate the b leaving the wharf, and describer them as

c mitt down immediately arter. The head 00.15thnio had
only tam men with him, and was obliged to go bock for
more, when he arrested two men who were the only per.
sons then on the road. The captain, on Thursday weenier,
received a letter apologising for the trouble that had been
given him, and stating th it the raiders were under the
impression that the arms on lewd were breechloaders,
and if such bad been the case the writer assured the
