Some Selected Reports from the Salisbury and Winchester Journal



Monday, June 27th, 1825




Law Anecdote -- The petition of Timothy Oates, in the year 1792, public crier to the Court in Wiltshire, represented to the Judges: "That your Petitioner is this day 84 years of age, and was a Crier in this Court before either of your Honors was born. That small as his perquisites are, his wants are still smaller. He alas ! can cry no longer, but he may possibly live a little longer; and during that small period he implores to cry by proxy. His son Jonathan has a sonorous echoing voice, capable of rousing a sleeping Juror or Witness, to the remotest nook in the Court-house; your Petitioner begs that Jonathan may be accepted as his substitute; so that, of your Petitioner it may be said when he is dead and gone, that although he cried almost all the days of his life yet he never shed a tear." -- The Bench granted nem con.

Presents to His Majesty brought by Messrs.Denham and Clapperton.- Four beautiful Ostriches procured by the above gentlemen in their late interesting expedition, and other specimens of Natural History, have been removed to the Royal Lodge, in Windsor Green Park, under the care of Mr.Cross, of the Menagerie, Exeter Change.

Mr.Wombwell advertises that the grand combat between Nero, the great lion, and the digs, will positively take place at Warwick, on the 26th of July.- The ground appointed is surrounded by high walls, on which seats will be erected. There are also a number of windows in front of which balconies will be erected.

The Wedding Ring Finger.- It being lately enquired, in case a lady lost her fourth finger, what one would be substituted for the wedding ring, it has been suggested that in this case the small finger would become the fourth, and be entitled to the ornament. It is highly probably that there is no law to direct what is to be done in such a case : but the custom of wearing the ring on the fourth finger is generally attributed to an opinion entertained by some anatomists of old, that there is a nerve, or connecting leader, between the heart and that particular finger. The moral of the case therefore is, - that in contracting marriage, the heart and the hand should go together.




WEYMOUTH, June 25.- Yesterday the brethren of the All Souls Lodge celebrated the festival of St.John the Baptist, at their Masonic Hall. Brother T. Robinson, W.M. presided and at 5 o'clock, they sat down to a most elegant dinner, which was provided and most tastefully arranged by Brother Scorey. After the cloth was removed the usual toasts were given, and on the health of the W.M. being drunk, he returned thanks in an eloquent speech. Several glees and songs were afterwards introduced, and the day was altogether enjoyed in the most felicitous manner.
Wednesday was married by the Rev.Willoughby Brassey, the Rev. Alfred Tooke, rector of Thorne Coffin, Somerset, to Eliza, 3d daughter of the Rev.Henry Poole, of the Royal Crescent.




POOLE, June 24.- The season for aquatic excursions commenced in this town on Tuesday last, when a large party of ladies and gentlemen set sail for the purpose of enjoying the picturesque scenery of the beautiful village of Studland. With the exception of a few showers of rain, the amusement was of the most gratifying description, and the party returned at "Midnight's hour," highly delighted with the day's entertainment. The voyage home was enlivened by some excellent songs by a few gentlemen amateurs.
Seized by the acting Tide Surveyor and his boat's crew, the sloop Virginia, of Weymouth, Ames, master, from Jersey, having a quantity of silks, tobacco, and spirits concealed on board.

A rural dance took place on the 17th and 18th inst. on the Nythe, near Alresford, in commemoration of the victory of Waterloo, when upwards of 200 couple were tripping it at the time to the lively notes of a full band led by H. Freemantle. The natural beauties of the spot selected for the occasion, attracted the greatest and most respectable assemblage ever witnessed before at any of the mayings in the neighbourhood. The bower was elegant and very commodious, the music was excellent, and there was good accommodation on the ground; and boats by the special permission of Lord Rodney were constantly plying across Alresford Pond for the conveyance of the company to the scene of amusement.

The sum of two hundred pounds has been paid by the Earl of Cardigan, nephew and executor of Lady Holland, to the Treasurer of the County Hospital.

Mr.Thompson's plan for the improvement of bathing at Southampton by the use of a steam engine for lifting water from the current of the estuary. The water will be continually flowing into the different cold baths; it is not only superior bathing, but a considerable advantage will be derived from the use of the water, which may be appropriated for the purpose of employing a water wheel for the use of a silk factory or many others, which will defray the expence. The baths may be detached a considerable distance from the engine; and warm or vapour baths may be conveyed to any part of the town. Mr.Thompson's plan for the vapour baths, is to have a siphon head which is to contain herbs, through which the vapour is to pass.

The pink feast at the Lord Nelson Inn on Tuesday was respectably attended, but the company was not so numerous as if the meeting had been more generally known. The show of flowers was excellent: the 1st prize was awarded to Mr.Hillyer; the 2d to Mr.Rose, at Lady Rich's; the 3d to Mr.Evans. The stewards for next year are Mr.N. Peglar and Mr.Hillyer. An excellent dinner was served up by Thomas, the utmost unanimity prevailed, and a handsome collection was made for the ensuing year.
� Owing to the fineness of the weather and the quantity of pinks this season, a fine show is expected at the Southampton Arms, on Wednesday.

"To the Right Hon.the Earl of Radnor. "May it please your Lordship, -- Your neighbours, the inhabitants of Salisbury, who often witness and highly appreciate the many virtues which adorn your Lordship's character in private life, beg leave to express their sentiments of the public measures in which your Lordship has recently engaged, by now presenting their hearty thanks for your Lordship's constant exertions to preserve inviolate our happy Constitution in Church and State."
As connected with this subject, we subjoin an extract of a letter addressed by his Lordship to a gentleman of this city:
"I was taken so unawares yesterday, that I was hardly able to express my acknowledgements to the individuals (who were paying me the compliment) for the expression of their kindness; I now desire in due manner to communicate my sense of the obligation. On the subject itself, I am free to assure the gentlemen that no Man in England is more zealous than myself or will be more persevering.
I am your faithful Servant,

On Saturday, June 18, being Waterloo Day, the Waterloo Friendly Society held their sixth annual meeting at the Crown Inn, Ludgershall.

After dinner a gentleman of Winchester presented to the society a History of the Battle of Waterloo; the members then paraded the streets with their banners and an excellent band of music, and the day concluded with a dance on the lawn.

Great Abundance of Mackerel.- A correspondent suggests that it would be an advantage to fish carriers and curers if they were made acquainted of the immense quantity of mackerel which has been caught on the Bourne Beach. Though continually shipped off by the boats to the vessels, thousands have been of necessity, left on the sands and wasted, and the catching will probably continue during the fine weather.

The Leverian Museum now exhibiting in a pavilion in our market-place, excites the highest admiration of the crowds that visit it; and such is the gratification it affords, that the proprietor is induced to prolong his stay here for a few days.
