Tbe effort to revive Weymouth Boons in spite of the
absence of Mer Majesty Plate from the UM of prises has
met with a vet oortideraltiesmount of atoms. Sather

Hone, sad new subscribers were found, so the com-
mittee were gratified with • aubawiption list better
than they could have expected only • short time ago.
Both in Weymouth and Dorchester, as well as else-
where have subscribers rallied round the committee,
so that they were enabled on Monday to issue a card,
with five events, and in each case with • very respect-
able list of entries. The expound of such • meet*
are of course very heavy, and among them is the item
, of 120 for the ground, which dedded them to make a
trial of the "gate money" Wan, and to charge 64. for

old faces were there, sager as ever to aid in
circulating the medium, and one had adorned himself
to red, whits, and blue, with abundance of union Jacks,
and he seemed busy es the rest. The Grand Stand,
which now appears positively for the last time, as it is
to be sold to-morrow, held • very fair assembly of ladies
and gti,en. including His Worship the Mayor, and

woods of Southdown at the beak, and the fresh bream
coming from the sea in front. Not quite so numerous
were the general public, and the oarriagm were
certainly fewer; but the Preston road WM all astir with
cabs and breaks, snatching a abeam, for • living out of
