A Stitormea C•Bll.—An interesting but painful cue
has come under professional notice during the week.
On Friday morning the domestic servant of Mr.
Matthews, jeweller, being on an errand in West-street,
was seized with • fit, and feU to the ground. She was
taken to Mr. Crocker's, and eventually to her master's
In Bast-street. Whilst tinier the influence of the
seizure she remained for a considerable time in a coma-
tose state, and at times become so violent that it
required the aid of three men to hold her. On Saturday
the unfortunate girl exhibited signs of improvement,
and up to the present time continues el iwly t recover,
receiving every possible attention at the hands of her
master.
EITIAOILDINART Faux or N•roas.—Mr. A. R.
Woodward, of Wanderwell Farm, acquaints u. of a
strange "birth" which took place on hie farm on Mon-
day. when • nest of ducks' eggs were hatched. From
one of the eggs was taken twin ducks perfect in every
part, and joined together by a strong membranous
substance at the back of the head. When discovered
the birds were dead, a portion of the shell having been
removed. Had Kr. Woodward been fortunate enongh
to be present at hatching time both birds might have
been preserved alive, as it is they are preserved in
spirits at Mr. Tucker's chemist. When Mr. Wood-
ward again pommel this remarkable curiosity, he will
be pleased to show the' Wanderwell twins" to anyone
who may feel interested.
PRIDIVITATION.—A most gratifyiog token of esteem
ia to be made to the Mi•ties Hammy, who have recently
left Bridport, where they have reside,' more than half
a century—to take up their abode at Barnstaple. The
present consists of a chaste drawii.g.room clock,
mounted on a.handsome black marble block, the works
. . . . . .

being supported by chaste scrolls, illuminated with
gold pencilling.. The movement is regulated by a
ruby escapement set by Mr. W. L. biatthews, by
whom the clock was supplied. A gilt plate bears the
inscriptien—" Presented to the Misses Hussey by the
friends of Bridport as • token of affection and regard,
May, 1880." Both ladies will be missed and their
absence regretted by many in this town. For many
years Mies Hussey has occupied the self-imp sed task
of " superintendent " of the girls' department of the
Congregational Sunday School, also conducting the
" Dorcas " Society, and both ladies have for some
years been teachers in the above schools. We are
assured the Misses Hussey will take the esteem of •
large circle of friends with them to Barnstaple.
OH, THE Snug, BiLLS, BHLte.—The rector of
Bridport has dismissed the bell-ringers of the parish
church becaose, in opposition to his esoreas orders,
they rang the bells on the occasion of Mr. Warton being
returned hi. P. for the borough, and some grievance
has been caused thereby. In his explanation he
that on the afternoon of the polling-day he met the
secretary of the ringers' society, and distinctly stated
that on no account whatever was there to be ringing
that evening. He went to Bradpole, and having
called on Canon Broadley, to his intense amazement
and very great consternation, he heard the bells of
Bridport church ringing. He went stright home, ant
to the belfry door. When up the stairs he bead peals
of laughter and cries of " Wsrton for ever." Am rector
of B idport he had endeavoured to raise the religious
tone of the pariah, and inculcate the same principle
with regard to the ringers. Therefore his consternation
and utter disgust when he beard those dirty
electioneering cries come down from the belfry of the
church he finds indescribable. His Can hardly trou
those ringers in the belfry again. On the part of the
ringers, these electioneering cries have been denied.
The roctor persists in his statement, adding it was
perfectly disgusting to drag the bells of the parish
church through the mud of • party election, and if the
ringers did not know what was due to the consecrated
house of God, they ought to have known. A new
bell-ringing guild is in the course of formation.. Datil/
New.
