BASNARD CASTLE, jUOUSTi&h, 1861 .

T H E Annual Exhibition of the B a r n a r d

Castle Horticultural Society was held

yesterday, and was in every way success-

f i l l . Great credit is due to the committee

for their exertions, year after year, to add

to the attractions and importance of their

anniversary. O u r report, from the little

time at our disposal, is necessarily brief,

but we give a full list of prizes.

T h e last mail from A m e r i c a brings news

of another reverse? sustained by the Federal

arms. T h e Federal G e n e r a l L y o n , with

8,000 men, had been attacked by ^23,000

Confederates. General L y o n was kil led,

and his army totally routed, with great

loss. T h e event is much to be deplored,

as General L y o n was a soldier of great

ability, and had greatly distinguished him­

self in previous engagements with the

Confederates.

L O C A L & G E N E R A L N E W S .

7 T H N O R T H Y O E K R i r L E s , B A E N A E D C A S T L E . — This corps w i l l muster to-morrow (Thursday) afternoon, at 5 o'clock, lo r inspection. First Bugle at half-past 4 , Every man is expect­ed to be present.

W e have now to add that the same hen, w i t h i n the last for tn ight , has l a id . 10 egg", weighing i n the whole 281 ounces, or nearly 3 ounces each.

I N D E P E N D E N T C H A P E L . — O n Sunday last , the 25th instant , the anniversary sermons were preached, morn ing and evening, by the Kev. J . Har r i son , formerly o f B a r n a r d Castle, and co-pastor w i t h the Kev . W . L . F r a t t m a n .

F B T E . — T h i s secluded and romant ic dale was the scene of great festivity on F r i d a y , the l f i t l i inst. , being the occasion o f the Band Contest and A n n u a l Fete, held under the patronage of R . M . Jaques, Esq. The Bands which took par t in the contest were the L e y b u r n , Arkendale, and L o w How. Each band played two pieces o f their o w n selection, after which the bands uni ted and played the "Hal le lu jah Chorus," and the "^National A n t h e m . " The fiirst prize of £ 6 , was awarded to L e y b u r n ; the second o f £ 4 , to Arkenda le ; and the t h i r d , o f £ 2 , to L o w R o w . A t lour o'clock, the large company, headed by the Arkendale B a n d , proceeded to a tent, where an excellent tea had been provided by the ladies o f the dale. The L e y b u r n Band followed, and played a selection of popular airs. Af ter tea, a B a l l took place, which was brought to a conclusion at 10 o 'clock. The whole proceedings o f the day and evening gave the greatest satisfaction to every one present ; and, as the company departed, they gave three cheers for R . M . Jaques, Esq., for his k i n d and l iberal patronage.

D A R L I N G T O N .

H O R S E S H O W , & c . — T h i s Show took place on F r iday last, i n the Greentreo F ie ld , at which prizes to the amount o f £160 were given. The exh ib i t ion was exceedingly large and good. The annual dinner was held at J l r Wr igh t son ' s , the Sun I u n . The only prizes which came in to this immediate locality were the fo l lowing :— Year l ing Ge ld ing for the road, 1st, £ 3 , M r Geo. Leng , W h o r l t o u ; Two-year-old Gelding for the road, 1st, £ 3 , M r G . Leng , W h o r l t o n .

H O H T I C D L T U R A L F E T E . — T h e second exhib i t ion for this year was held on F r iday last, i n the grounds of Johr. H a r r i s , Esq., Woodside, connected w i t h which was a concert o f Sunday scholars, conducted by M r G. Dent . Accord ing to advertisement, 10,000 Sunday scholars were to bo admi t ted free; bu t the committee tailed i n ob­ta ining that number, bu t succeeded i n procur ing upwards of 6,000, which was no mean approxima­t ion towards their" ideal , t ak ing in to account the aizeof Da r l i ng ton , and the very great expense u n ­avoidable i n b r ing ing large numbers of chi ldren from a distance. I t is needless to say that the great at t ract ion o f the day was the Sunday schools and the singing. Qui te an exf eriment here, and altogether a success. A number o f beautiful hymns and pieces were sung by the schools, as­sisted by M r J o h n W i l s o n (cornet) , and two or three others, also by several harmoniums. A n immense inf lux of visitors poured f rom the r a i l ­way stations i n to the t o w n dur ing the day. T h e weather was very fine, w i thou t a drop o f ra in , a l ­though so much had fallen the day before, and we venture to affirm that a l l were delighted w i t h the i r vis i t . F r o m 4,000 to 5,000 persons were ad­m i t t e d t o the grounds, besides many friends con­nected w i t h the floral exhib i t ion and the Sunday schools. The flowers and fruits were abundant and excellent, and a decidedly good show.

der a promise that he would repay it on his return to that country. H e did not return, but the plain­tiff oame home, and on his applying for repaysjent of the money it was refused. The defendant pleaded a set-off of £ 2 10s., which he stated he paid for the plaintiff in Por tuga l , on account of money which the la t ter had received i n , his name. The plaintiff having denied the set-off, and the defendsnt not being able to corroborate his own evidence at to the payment of the £ 2 10s., the plaintiff obtained a verdict for the amount sued for.

W A L T O N V. L A U G H I I K . — T h i s was an action brought by J o h n W a l t o n , of Blmrthonse, near Middleton-in-Teetdale, against Wi l l i am Laughl in , of M i d d l e t o n , to recover £ 1 10s for the value of three lambt, belonging to W a l t o n , wh ich had been worried by a dog of Laugh l in ' t . After the lambs were worr ied , W a l t o n »aw L a u g h l m , and he agreed to pay £ 1 10s for the damage, and afterwards de­stroyed t n e dog. No twi th s t and ing th i s agreement, and the defendant being also aware t ha t his dog was guilty of w o r r y i n g sheep, he refused to pay the money, and the p l a i n t i f f was compelled to b r ing th is act ion to recover payment of it. After the p l a in t i f f had given his evidence, the defendant con­sented to a verdic t , and was ordered to pay the costs of the p l a in t i f f and six witnesses, amoun t ing to double the damage.

B l o o m s » . W E A V E S . — T h i s was an ac t ion b rough t by Thomas Bigg ins , a mason, against H e n r y Weaver, the contractor for the erection o f the Gaunless V i a d u c t , for £ 1 , the amoun t o f four days wages. T h e defendant had p a i d 10s i n t o Cour t , and defended the act ion as to the remain­der, on the g round tha t par t of the wages had been abated by the Justices of the Peace on account of the p l a in t i f f having unlawful ly left the defendant's service. I n answer t o this , Mr Roberts, o f Man­chester, sol ici tor l o r the p la in t i f f , contended tha t the convict ion produced by the defendant was not in accordance w i t h his Worsh ip ' s o r ig ina l decision at the hearing, which was a fine imposed upon the p l a i n t i f f ; and a l though he refused to p a ; it, he was l iberated from custody, and that the order o f abatement was an af ter thought , H e fur ther argu­ed tha t the hearing had been at an unt imely hour, and the p l a i n t i f f had not an oppoi t u n i t y o f defend­ing himself before the jus t i ce , a n d tha t the whole of such proceedings appeared to have been con­ducted i n an in jud ic i a l and collusive manner. A s M r Roberts was proceeding w i t h bis argument the judge stopped h i m , and inqui red o f M r R icha rd ­son, the solicitor tor the delendant, the nature of the defence; and he concisely answered tha t the p l a i n t i f f was engaged to the defendant at 5s per day, payable once a fo r tn igh t , w i t h an allowance for subsistence i n the meantime ; and tha t earl} i n the m o r n i n g of the 19 th June last the p l a i n t i f f and several others left the i r employment w i t h o u t the consent o f the defendant, on account o f bis no t a l lowing a fel low-workman t o commence his labour, because he was no t there at the usual hour i n the m o r n i n g . I n consequence of the pla int i f f absent­i n g himself f rom his work, he was apprehended and taken before the Rev. H . C . L ipscomb, who ordered ten shil l ings o f his wages to be deducted. Af te r some discussion between the j udge and the solicitors, his Honor in t imated t o M r Roberts tha t his op in ion was against him ; bu t as his charge against the convic t ing magistrate was ao strong, he considered i t would no t be r i g h t to i n ­quire further i n t o i t i n his absence, and that , there­fore, the case had better be adjourned t i l l next court , when M r Serjeant D o w h u g w o u l d b j pre­sent, and the magistrate m i g h t a t tend and explain his proceedings before h i m . T o this the solicitors consented, and u l t imate ly the seven cases against M r Weaver were adjourned.

M C D E B M T D V. H O U F B A Y . — T h i s was an action brought by M r M c D e r m i d , o f D a r l i n g t o n , uphols­terer and cabinet-maker, against D r H o m t r a y , o f Ga inford , for £ 3 8 6s 5d, the balance of an account of £ 7 6 18s 3d , for a quan t i ty of fu rn i tu re sold by the p l a in t i f f to defendant i n October last. The defendant had paid i n t o Cour t £22 9s l O d i n f u l l of plaintiff 's claim of £38 6s 5d , leaving a balance £15 16s 7d i n dispute. The pla iuthT^irovod the Bale and delivery o f the fu rn i tu re , aud at tempted to show that the price of the greatest par t of i t was fixed at the t ime o i sale from designs he at the t ime produced t o the defendant. T h i s , however, lie failed t o do, and the question turned upon the value o f the goods. The p l a i n t i f f h imself stated

Shortly afterwarda, the Barnard Cattle and F o r -

C R T C K E T . — K I N N I N V I E v. S T A I N D R O P The r e tu rn match was played by the above clubs on Saturday last, the 24 th inst . , i n a field near K i n n i n v i e , belonging to M r W . Ee l l e t t , wh ich resulted i n favour o f the K i n n i n v i e eleven by one wicket . I t is on ly fair to say tha t a l ively sp i r i t pervaded the whole play, and tha t the b a i t i n g o f M r R . W i l s o n , on the Staindrop side, and o f Messrs T . W i l s o n , T . Bainbr idge , and J . L i t t l e . fair , on the K i n n i n v i e side, was admirable. After

tha t they were of the value he h a d charged, and ' an excellent dinner, provided by M r Peairs, the he called chree witnesses whose evidence was to the same effect. The defendant alleged tha t the fur­n i tu re was o f an inferior qual i ty , and tha t i t was already visible from several of the articles that they were not only made of common materials, bu t tha t the workmanship had been very indifferently exe­cuted. H e called three very respectable and com­petent witnesses, who had examined and valued the i u r n i t u r e , to prove t i ia t the amount he had pa id in to court was more than sufficient to cover the balance due to the p l a i n t i f f l o r the furn i tu re . The Judge, however, thought otherwise, and gave the p la in t i f f a verdict for £ 1 0 16s 7d more than the defendant had pa id i n to Cour t . M r Webster, o f D a r l i n g t o n , appeared for the plaint i ff , and M r Sleavenson, o f the same place, for the defendant.

members o f the t w o clubs spent an agreeable even­ing . W h e n the n igh t had advanced, and toasts and songs had gone r o u n d , the Staindrop eleven started for homo amidst loud and hearty cheering. The fo l lowing is the score : —

A S I I U O E E it. W I A V E E . — I n th is case George Ashmore , o f Barnard Castle, joiner , was plaint i ff , and H e n r y Weaver, of Staindrop, contractor, was defendant, and the action was brought to recover £1 for money lent by the p la in t i f f to the defendant i n Por tuga l , where the parties were employed at the erection o f a rai lway-bridge—the defendant as foreman, snd the p l a i n t i f f as a jo iner .—The money wap lent t o defendant on his leaving Por tugal , u n -

O n Saturday last, £ 5 , given by R . W . Bainbr idge ,

Esq. , o f M i d d l e t o n House, were shot for by men o f

the 5 t h N o r t h Y o r k (Force t t ) , 7th N o r t h Y o r k

(Barnard Castle), and 12th D u r h a m ( M i d d l c t o n )

Rifle Volunteers . There were 9 entries from For­

cett, 18 from Barna rd Castle, and 40 of M i d d l e t o n .

The Barnard Castle men started early, and reach­

ed M i d d l e t o n about half-past 9 o'clock, where they

were courteously received by Captain Bainbr idge

and Ens ign Sherlock, o f the 12th D u r h a m . The

Forcet t men had preceded them, and the whole

immediately fe l l - in , a,nd, headed by the excellent

B a n d of the 12th D u r h a m , marched to the g round

of the la t ter corps. The practice-ground of the

M i d d l e t o n rifles is on the Y o r k s h i r e side of the

r iver , and is i n a somewhat exposed s i tua t ion ,

being open to the west w i n d , w h i c h , on Saturday,

blew w i t h such fury as to force back the men as

they stood d r awn up i n l ine for firing. U n d e r

these circumstances, to steady the rifles was al -

most an impossibi l i ty , yet we have seen worse

shooting on a calmer day. The g round is also

h i l l y , and is crossed b y numerous watercourses,

no twi ths tanding wh ich i t possesses an advantage

not unappreciated by the lover of the picturesque,

for, f rom its elevation, i t commands an extensive

view of the vale of the Tees, w i t h the numerous

beautiful windings o f the r iver . B a r n a r d Castle

won the toss, and commenced firing ; they were

followed by Midd le ton ; the Force t t men coming

last. F ive rounds were fired at 300 yards, five at

400, and four at 500 yards. The firing d i d not

conclude t i l l nearly 8 o'clock, p .m. , when Corporal

Clel land, o f the B a r n a r d Castle corps, was declar­

ed the vic tor . The entrance money was formed

i n t o t w o mino r prizes, and handed over to Messrs

P inkney and G o w l i n g , o f M i d d l e t o n , whe were

second and t h i r d scorers. R. W . Bainbridge, Esq.,

presented the £ 5 to M r Clel land, observing that

he wel l deserved to be the winner f rom the steadi­

ness w i t h wh ich he had shot throughout the con­

test. Three cheers were given for " The W i n n e r , "

three for " R . W . Bainbr idge , Esq. ," and three for

the corps respectively ; after wh ich the whole o f

the men again fe l l - in , ahd w i t h the B a n d , followed

by the immense crowd who had been present

du r ing the shooting, re turned to M i d d l e t o n .

Garthwaite , at the last compet i t ive examinat ion for vacancies i n tho I n l a n d Revenue department. This young man's success speaks much for Sta in­drop Nat iona l School, where he was educated f rom his infancy, [ and la t ter ly a pupil-teacher under that very able master, M r L a x . T h i s is another tes t imony of M r Lax's efficiency, and s t r i k ing ly confirms the late repot t of the Government I n ­spector. I am, Sir ,

H O R T I C U L T U R A L S O C I E T Y .

T H E annual 'exhibi t ion o f th is society was held i n

the Castle G a r t h , yesterday. The Show of F r u i t s ,

Flowers, and Vegetables, was al l tha t could be de­

sired, and i n the Cottagers' department, especially,

there was very pleasing evidence o f progress. The

day being favourable, a vast concourse o f visi tors

assembled i n the t o w n , cheap trains having been

r u n on a l l the sur rounding lines, no r thward as far

as Newcastle, and southward to Leeds, The

various scenes o f interest i n the v ic in i ty o f the

t o w n were explored by hundreds o f sightseers, and

the magnificent ra i lway bridges received a due

meed of a t tent ion. I n n d d i t i o n t o the ordinary

attractions o f tho F lower Show, the Committee,

w i t h a laudable desire to make the anniversary s t i l l

more popular , had engaged Cl inton 's Mode l M i l i ­

tary B a n d , wh ich played a selection o f music i n

unr iva l led style i n tho courso o f the day. T h e

celebrated Swiss Singers made their first appear­

ance before a nor thern audience, and were wel l re­

ceived ; the novel ty of their performance, and their

qus in t nat ional costume, c a s i n g them to be 'o, k-

ed upon with unusual interest. M r G r s * ! i , j u n . ,

through an accident to his Balloon, did not make

an ascent, bat the Balloon Races were a

great f o l d of amutemtrnt. I B ths even­

ing a Coooart .took place in the Mechanics'

H a l l , when the Swiss Singers and Clinton's B a n d

distinguished themselves even more highly than in

the afternoon. There was a crowded audience, and

the performers were frequently and fondly applaud*

ed. D u r i n g the day the streets were filled by the

large influx of spectators, who might be numbered

by thousands. The day, altogether, was one of

the busiest ever experienced at Barnard Castle, and

all passed off agreeably.

The following gentlemen officiated at Judges at

the Flower Show—Class 1, M r Pape,Darlington ;

M r S. Corpse, Hurworth. Class t anefs, M r Short,
