ing corresponding positions In connection with the
army, but mot eb.nually belonging to it, bare au* been
allowed to share In the privilege, which will probably
be wended on another occasion to the recruiting-
=ta, end a few other classes who, like the
-sergeants, have served their time in the army,
and are afterwards provided wih employment in a
send-military capacity. The gift is one which,
although not costly to the nation is well appreciated
by the soldiery, especially the non-commissioned
odium and others who are entitled to wear gold lace,
the average_prios of • gold-laos cap ranging from 14s.
upwards. it is understood that the gift is to be
repeated annually. As regards the " boon to the
.nesewommie officers, it is a step in the right
direction, as the position and status of the last-named
clam should be made such as to be considerrd highly
creditable to win.

"DORCHESTER" GOOD TEMPLARS' LODGE.
Pb." Dorchester" Lodes of Good Templar, have now
ts.ten up it. quarters at the large hell at the Coffee
Tavern. The lodge was inaugurated several years
ego, and for some time it was not in the most prosper. 1
one °audition, and at one period through adverse
cirenmstances wee extinguished altogether. Several
friends, however, renewed their exertions in the
temperance cause, and about two years ago the lodge
was attain formed, taking up its headquarters at the
Alingtou Hall, but even here things did not go on
very smoothly, the accommodation being not of the
best, and once more they struck their tents, and
through the kindness of Mr. Pouncy were accom-
modated at his house in Southatreet. Matters then
proceeded pleasantly eno h, and the lodge grew and
progid, WI the child the man, and the
iffinthers Mormsiog so rapidly that the officers were
forced once more to look around them for anew habita-
tion. The committee of the Coffee Tavern, having
coadderebly enlarged the hail at the establishment,
lend effected important alterations, this room was
selected as the future home of the lodge. Acoom-
Modation has been provided for about 900 persons,
end the room will make an admirable meeting place
for the Dorchester Good Templar. It has been
waleremd by 18 feet, is • most comfortable and spacious
lull, and is admirably adapted for the purpose.
There was • large whoring on Tuesday night, on
the occasion of the inaugural supper and entertain-
ment at the new Lodge-room. The decorations were
profuse mad tasteful, and Mr. Rawlings very kindly
Sunned out flowers and ferns for the supper tables
end hall. The proceedings were opened by an
entertainment at which the Worthy Cilia Templar,
Qcorbolizaewhict Manning presided, supported
bY the P.W.C.T. ,trett. There was • large esthet-
