RETURN OF THE DoRSET WHATIA.

On Thursday morning the Du-.et regiment of militia
returned to Dorchester after their camped= at Aldershot,
taking part in the summer inaweuvres. They arrived by
special train about half-pant devil. and nutrehed through
the principal streets to the barracks. They were headed
by the hand playing such tunes as The girl I left behind
ine," "Auld long syne," ie. Every man in the regiment
had his Dlengarry adorned with a sprig of purple heather.
All looked remartably well, but thoroughly bronzed
with exposure to the sun. The appearance of the men
we; Most smart and soldier-like, and the many spectatorsof their triimphel return, might well feel proud of the
Dorset uiljt4a. They were shortly afterdismissed to their
billet', and * regiment will complete Op work for the

THE DORSET VOLUNTEERS AT THE k1131111.14k
MANtEUVRES.
The sham fight on iloginore Common, on Monday,
terminated in favour of the invaders, represented by the
First Division under General Smythe. Prince Edward's
troops struck their tents, at seven o'clock and marched
from Frensham hi attack General Smythe's corps at
Hogrnore Common. The attack comenced by throwing out
vedettes, followed by an attack of the brigade of Guards,
which was declared unsuccessful. The attack was con-
tinued, and though at one time the Prince au •ceeded in
cutting through Suathe's line, the general opinion of the
umpires was that General linsythe hod won the day. The
Duke of Cambridge was preseill
The march of the Dorset battalion, on Monday, was
about II) lIIIISI, mostly through heather up to the loon's
knees. The rain fell very fast, writhe men had is thorough
soaking. About 8.30 the Artillery was heard in close
quarters. The Dinszet Volunteers were used as • decoy to
take the attention of the enemy from sonic of the regular
regiments, and although the men carried 30 rounds of
ammunition each, none but the 1.4 company
(Bridport) had the chance of tiring a round. The Bridport
company were sent out as skirmishers, with the first
half-battalion. The rest of the battalion were left in the
wood as a reserve, but were not allowed to stand
still very long. The state of the ground was
bad. The tn..) were thick, and about every 12
or 20 yards there was • ditch to be jumped, and
sometimes a man would suddenly disappear into a great
hole, especially those in the rear rank. The same ground
was marched over in the Autumn Manonivres of 1871, but
Oren the weather was dry. just as the men were
Swptctagst of an engagement, the unwelcome sound of
"Gems was heard, and the victory WWI decided in
favour of the etimn.. hç itOrsets did not like the idea
of being defeated wilhont tlring a 'etetc4 rellild• Then
began another march, in • pouting ; • 'through the
heather and bog and ditches. The teats were imp.hed at
30, and dinner served, consisting of stewed boef and
potatoes.
On Tuesday there were three parades for battalion drill.
Early that morning Col. Steward's charger closed Ids
career on "the tented plain," in consequence, it is

On Wednesday Ga. rouse sounded at four; breakfast at
6.30, and went off in search Utile enemy. Found between
this place and Woolmer, and we gave him "a licking "
to-day, and no mistake. This finishes the fighting, and
the lot Division are on their way to Aldershot. A poor
fellow of the 7th Hussars was killed a few hundred yards
from our camp. He was with his troop chasing
scone scouts of the enemy, when going at full gallop
his horse put a foot into • hole, and rolled him
over. His rear rank man came over horse and all on
ion top of him, crushing his chest very badly. A stretcher
sees procured, and he was carried in, but died soon after.

CHURCH SCHOOLS TREAT.—Last week there were great
doings amongst the little ones in our village. The morn-

which nature and art has supplied, bounded on every side
by lofty hills, their slopes covered with living green, at
this season of the year the spot is one welch cannot be
surpassed in this part of England. N'isiting it on Tuesday,
after an absence of seine ten yaws, the scene was as
natural as ever, the "eternal hills—which change not,"
were the same as in days of yore: but, on looking back
at the past, what change,. have taken place in that brief
period of life's history. How many loved ones, in cottage
and in hall, have been Mid low, how many that were then
the hope and joy of friends have isaseed away. The
youths and maidens of those alays are now mothers and
fathers, many of the aged are Lead at rest in the quiet
little churchyard, anal the great leveller death has been
at work on every hand Sad as these reflections are, they
fill the heart with a holy calm bard though the partings
were, and long the mourning for those who have left us,
time has somewhat healed the wounds, and there is now
• happy looking forward to that time of reunion, when
by ones shall inset, no mom to part., anal where
there will be no more pain anal norrow. What so striks
ingly brought this train of thought upon us was the errand
on which we were bent. Ten years ago we ',hated the
spot to witnesi a pleasant gathering of school children
and our busine.s on the present occasion was the Wee.
It was • beautiful afternoon, as see hare before said, and
• refreshing breeze tempered the atmosphere, whilst the
delightful shade was much appreciated. It was the
annual treat to the Sunday and day scholars in connection
with the church at Walditch kindly given by Mrs.
Gundry, of The Hyde. About two o'clock the juveniles,
to the number of about 131, met at the schoolhause, where
they were marshalled by the energetic school mistress
(Miss King) whose love for the little ones, and exertions
to Unpin to them suitable education, have caused her to be
beloved by all the parishioners. The school children were
then joined by some olaler former pupils, and • start was
made. Each of the little ones carried a beautiful bouquet
of flowers; and a large number of little bannereta all of
one shape, but of every Conceivable colour, were dia-
tributed at intervals in the ranks. On the way some
charming little pieces were sung, amongst them "The
harvest moon is in the Sky, ' "hurrah for old England,"
gc, at., the former being particularly suitable, seeing
that the golden grain alottol the surrounding landscape,
being in sheaf, anal awaiting renewal. The Hyde, the
resiaknce of .1. Gunalry, Esq., having been reached the
children halted in the lawn in front of the house, and
were received by Mrs. (tawdry, who cordially welcomed
them, and then the children advanced one by one and
presented their bouquets to their kind benefactress. The
little ones then dispersed about the beautiful ground,, and
enjoyed' themselves to their hearts' content. 3liss King

near where a tiny fountain sent up its silvery spray tofall
into the ornamental water beneath, ill which gold anal

guests shared in the festivities. It was truly • beautiful

of the house, anal 'bitterest in the breeze : the laughter of
the smaller ones anal the shouts of the boys at cricket and
