THE CRAWSHAY BAND.

THE CRAWSHAY BAND. 0 local attraction, perhaps, is so eagerly and generally anticipated both by the visit- ors and residents as the annual visit to Aberystwyth of the celebrated Cyfarthfa, Band. This band, as is well known, was founded by the late Mr CRAWSHAY, of Cyfarthfa Castle, who maintained it at his sole cost with lavish and unsparing gene- rosity. The institution has been kept with unimpaired vigour in its pristine excellence, and the visit of the band, therefore, to the town forms a musical treat which should on no account be missed. The band arrived in Aberystwyth yesterday (Friday) after- noon, and the first performance took place in the evening. Musical performances will be held daily until Tuesday next on the Pro- menade Pier and on the Terrace on Sunday, too, the customary selection of sacred music will be given. The latter gathering has always been a paramount centre of attrac- tion, and we have not the slightest doubt that the present occasion will form any ex- ception to the rule. When we mention that these universally-prized entertainments are given annually by Mr Crawshay at his per- sonal cost, without any expense to the town, we feel convinced that it must be unanimously acknowledged that the warm and hearty re- cognition of all classes of the inhabitants of Aberystwyth is certainly due to him for his remarkable and generous kindness.

DEATH OF THE OLDEST WELSH PREACHER.— The Rev David Williams, who was known through- out South Wales as Williams, Llanwrtydand no The Patriarch o i Troedrhiwdalar," passed to his rest on Thursday, last week, at the ripe age of ninety-six, the rev. gentleman having been born in 177S. The Rev Air Williams, who was an eloquent and impassioned preacher and faithful minister, possessed the power of imparting much valuable information respecting the revival of religion which took place in Wales under the leadership of the devoted clergymen—Rowlands, of Llangeitho, and others. The venerable minister was buried on Wednesday in the presence of a large concuurse of people. I MARRIAGE OF MISS TUŒLWALL.-Thp. mar- riage of Miss Darcy Thirhvail (the eldest daughter of the llight Rev Dr ThirlwaII, the late Bishop of St. David's) to Mr Henry Janu s Stevens, of Lon- don, was solemnized at the Bathwiok parish church, Bath, on Tuesday. The right rev. prelate, we may here mention, has, since his resignation of the see, taken up his residence in Pultenev-street, Bath. t Th marriage ceremony was performed by the Ven. Archdeacon Clark, of St. David's and the Misses Hughes Wright, A. Thirlwall, N. Thirlwall, and T. Thi ri wall officiated as bridesmaids. The fair bride was attired in white silk with a Honiton lace veil, her attendants being robed in pink and white tar- iatan. The bridewas given away by her brother, while Mr Beacham accompanied the bridegroom to the altar as best man. The happy couple left Bath for Ilfracombe in the course of the afternoon. KAILWAI* ACCIDENT.—A serious accident oc- cured a few days ago to Mr Abraham Owen, of Penllwyn, whilst returning by train from the Bangor Eisteddfod. Mr Owen travelled by the "special" night train which reached Bow-street Station where lie wished to alight at about four a.m. The unfortunate man opened the door of the carriage, and, although the train had not stopped, was descending from it when he fell between the platform and the wheels. He was rescued as speedily as possible, but on examination it was found thai the train had passed over his legs, caus- ing a terrible laceration of the tinkle joint of one foot, with a fracture of the bones, and a crushing of the great toe of the other foot with a similar fracture. The hapless sufferer was conveyed to the Aberystwyth Infirmary where his wounds received the prompt attention of Mr J. M..Jones. M.R.C.S. THE Bn-mop OF ST DAVID'S.—The confirmation of the election by the Very Rev the Dean and Chapter, of the Veil.

Clarke, M.A., vicar of Castle Martin, Pembrokeshire, the Rev. Henry De Winton, M.A., vicar of Boughrood, the Rev. David Williams. B.D., professor of Welsh at St. David's College, Lampeter, and his legal representatives. The usual proclama- tion having been made, the oaths were administered to the Bishop-designate by Dr Deane, Q.C., the vicar-general of the province of Canterbury. The proceedings throughout were of a purely formal nature.—The Bishop-designate was consecrated on Monday morning, in Westminster Abbey, in com- pany with the Rev Dr Steere, who has been elected to the see of Central Africa. The officiating prelates were the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Bishops of London. Rochester and St. Asaph, the Archbishop acting as celebrant in the commuion service. An appropriate and impressive sermon was preached by the Kev Canon Thorold. AT THE English Baptist Chapel, Alfred-place, on Tuesday, Mrs Taylor, a Scotch lady, was bap- tised on the profession of her faith in Christ, iu the presence of a few friends, by the Rev J. A. Morris. Mrs Taylor (who is the wife of a judge) has been brought up among the Scotch Presby- terians, but seeing that the New Testament i" entirely silent on the subject of infant baptism, her mind began to become uneasy, and having made the matter a subject of prayer she became convinced that a ceremony performed on her in infancy—of which she was not conscious—could not be in accordance with the teachings of the word of God. Consequently, she resolved to give a personal obedience to Christ in baptism, and having ma le known her intention to the Rev Mr Morris, he, seeing the soundness of her views and her intense desire to obey her Divine Master in all things, most willingly complied with her request by administering the ordinance. The service was throughout very impressive. May the blessings of the Great Head of the church attend her and her family all the days of their life, and may the day soon dawn when all Christians will take the words of Christ and his apostles, and not human dogmas am! traditions as their rule of faith and conduct. Miss Morgan played on the harmonium with much tas t e.— Cunim un icat ed.

-t- THE CARDIGANSHIRE ARCHERY AND CROQUET CLUB. The annual archery competition and ball in con- nection with this club was held on Tuesday. The archery and croquet matches were held in a tield near the Vicarage, in the afternoon, when a large numberof members were present. The first gen- tleman's Archery Prize was won by Major Lloyd Philipps, while Miss Parry, of Llydiardo, carried off the corresponding prize for the ladies. The best gold" was tai; n by Mr Yaughan Pryse, of Bwlchbyclian. A' r these prizes had been gal- lantly competed for, the remainder of the after- noon was devo. > croquet. The first croquet prize was won by Mrs Cosens, of Cwm, while the second was awarded to Miss Laura Bonsall, of Glanrheidol. The Assemby Room of the Gogerddan Arms Hotel had received very effective decorations at the hands of Mr T. Morrell. At the eastern end of the room was a raised dais, over which was suspended the crest of Sir Pryse Pryse, the president of the club, flanked on each side by the arms of the county. At the opposite end of the room a large target was placed against the wall, this appro- priate decoration being surrounded by various standards. The sides of the room were also elegantly draped with flags, stands of arrows and croquet mallets being introduced at intervals. The whole of the arrangements, both for the open-air sports and the ball, were carried out under the energetic personal supervision of Captain Bassett Lewis, the secretary of the club, whose praiseworthy care contributed in no ordinary degree to render the proceedings at once thoroughly successful and highly enjoyable. Dancing commenced at ten o'clock to the strains of Hay's Shrewsbury Band, and was vigorously kept up during the evening. The following ladies and gentlemen were among the number of those present Sir T. D. Lloyd (Bronwyddj, Col. Pryse (Peithyll), Lord Lieut, of the County, Major and Mrs Llovd-Philipps (Mabwsj, and Mrs Buubury, Capt. and Mrs Cosens (Cwm), Capt. and Mrs Bas- set Lewis, Mr and Mrs H. C.

Soon after midnight the dancers sat down to partake of an excellent supper, which reflected the highest credit upon the catering powers of Mr Rowlands, the landlord of the Gogerddan Arms Hotel. Dancing was renewed after supper, and shortly before four o'clock the ball was brought to a close.

BAZAAR AT THE TOWN HALL. A bazaar was held at the Town-hall on Thursday and the following day, in aid of the fund for the restoration of Llanychaiarn parish church. The hall was literally transformed from unadorned plainness to remarkable beauty by the energetic and tasteful labours of the indefatigable ladies who had undertaken the management of the work. The council chamber was fitted up as a refreshment room, where Miss Annie Davies, Ffosrhydgaled, dispensed good things without number, her arduous duties being in some degree lightened by the assis- tance of numerous ladies and gentlemen, who kindly acted as volunteers. Mention should not be omitted of the fact that several donations, both in kind, articles for sale, and decorations, were kindly sent to the promoters of the bazaar by numerous resi- dents of Aberystwyth. The stalls in the hall were covered with a profusion of elegant articles, the whole being arranged in such a manner as to pro- duce a highly pleasing and effective appearance. Floral decoration was also made available in a very charming style. The following ladies presided at the stalls, and were indefatigable in their efforts to vend their stock to the utmost advantage :—Mrs and the Misses Davies Ffosrhydgaled; the Misses Davies, Tanybwlch Mr H. S. Richardes, Bryn- eithin Mrs Leir, Charlton Musgrove Miss Davies, Penpompren Mrs Vaughan, Brynog; Miss M. Davies, Antaron Miss Parry, Llydiarde, and other ladies.' Col. Powell had also furnished a side room with numerous attractions, his collection being very appropriately known as Col. Powell's room ot curio- sities." The exhibition comprised various objects of local and general interest, which were too numerous to specify among them. however, should be men- tioned the standard bushel measure of Tregaron, supposed to be a couple of centuries old, and to have been kept in a turret upon the top of the tower of Tregaron Church This curious relic was made by Cornelius Le Brun. Colonel Powell also exhibited another variety—of inestimable value to himself— Sir Walter Scott's snuff-box, which was presented to him by the" Great unknown," together with Daniel O'Connell's pipe and snuff-box, an Abys- sinian shield and prayer-book, and Maori chieftain's coat, and similar articles, including a very complete collection of stuffed birds. The display proved to be a decided feature of the exhibition, and although an extra admission fee was charged to inspect the collection, the visitors to the room were numerous.

CARDIGAN. NARROW ESCAPE. On Wednesday morning last as Mr Morris, tanner, Rhydlewis, was turning the corner of the Red Lion stables, his mare shied, and the trap coming into collision with the cor- ner of the house overturned and was absolutely shivered into splinters, Mr Morris himself being below the wreck. The mare continued to drag the remains of the dog-cart after her for a few yards, when she was providentially stopped. Mr Morris fortunately received no material hurt, although he complained greatly of pain in his chest.

LLANNON. A MAD DOG.—The quiet inhabitants of the lovely and picturesque vale of Non were seized with panic on Tuesday last, owing to a rumour that a mad dog had bitten four persons and several animals in the neighbourhood. After some enquiry the report was found to be correct. The dog proved to be a large greyhound, the property of the vicar. The animal showed signs of hydrophobia early in the morning, and ere the expiration of the day the fierce beast was killed after a severe struggle. GOOD TEMPLARIBM. — The members of the Cledan Lodge, No. 441, held their third anniversary the other day. After perambulating the principal streets, they repaired to the chapel, where the Rev Jenkyn Jones who, after a short and pithy address, called upon the Rev John Davies and Evan Evans, Pennant, to utter a few words on the important theme of Temperance. The eloquent addresses delivered by these two eminent preachers were thoroughly worthy of the reputation of the speakers, both of whom dwelt strongly upon the duty of all Christians to abstain entirely from the use of intoxicating liquors. Rarely has such enthusiasm been manifested by the audience at any previous similar gathering. Great praise is due to Miss Lewis and Messrs E.^ewis (draper), D. Jones (painter), and John Davies (stone-cutter), for their indefatigable efforts to work up the temperance cause,
MACHYNLLETH.

MACHYNLLETH. The town of Machynlleth was gaily decorated with flags and other joyous emblems on Saturday, on the occasion of the return home after their wedding tour in Scotland of Mr and Mrs Sackville Phelps. The demonstrations began as the happy couple arrived by train at the railway station, detonating signals being fired, and a numerous party of friends, including the Rev Canon Griffiths and his daughters, the Rev J. Jones, and other ladies and gentlemen, being drawn up to give them a hearty welcome. A carriage was in readiness to convey Mr and Mrs Phelps to their residence, and after taking their seats the newly-married couple were dragged through the town by a convoy of men and boys amid great cheering. GRAND CONCERT.—A concert was given in the Upper Room of the Town Hall on Wednesday evening, under the auspices of the Machynlleth Choral Society. The entertainment was originated at the instigation of Mr J. Humphreys Jones and other members for the purpose of giving a benefit concert to Miss Marian Williams, who is pursuing her duties at the Royal Academy of Music, and who, together with her fellow pupil, Miss Marie Duval, took part in the proceedings. The elegant room was fairly filled by a thoroughly appreciative audience, who rewarded the performers by hearty and repeated bursts of applause. The following was the programme :—Handel's Chorus, Sing unto God," Choral Society; song, "The return of Spring," Miss Marie Duval glee, Strike the Lyre," choir song, She wandered down the Mountain's side," Miss Marian Williams; solo pianoforte, Miss Brecs song, He thinks I do not love him," Miss Duval soug, The Man of War Mr J. Humphreys Jones song," She wore a wreath of Roses," Miss Marian Williams; Beethoven's Chorus, Hallelujah to the Lord," Choral Society. Part second Glee, In the loriely vale of streams," choir: song, "Somebody," Miss Marian Williams; Handel's Chorus, "The many rend the Skies," Choral Society song, The Maiden's Story," Miss Marie Duval glee, Swiftly from the Mountain's brow," party song, Beddgelert," Miss Marian Williams song, Over the rolling Sea," Mr D. GiMart solo pianoforte, Mr Rowland Davies; duet, "I -know a bank," Miss Williams and Miss Duval chorus, When His loud voice," Choral Society hnaJe," God save the Queen." The open- ing chorus of the Choral Society was somewhat unsteady and a little rough, and this performance gave no indication whatever of the degree of musical excellence exhibited by the body of local vocalists at a later period of the evening. Miss Marie Duval made a favourable impression in The return of Spring," her clear notes being heard to great advantage. The next glee was sung by eight members of the society, and the male voices brought out excellently and with considerable expression the spirited portions of the air. Miss Marian Williams' appearance was hailed with great applause, and the close of her first song was sig- nalised by such a literal storm of cheers as showed nnmistakeably that she had succeeded in making herself highly popular with the audience. She responded to a rapturous encore by singing a Welsh air very gracefully.. Miss Brees then played a pianoforte solo in a manner which did her infinite credit. He thinks I do not love him was sung by Miss Marie Duval with considerable sympathy, her expressiveness imparting an additional charm to the lovely air. Mr J. Humphreys Jones received an encore for his singing of The man of war," but its insincerity was evidently not perceived by him, and it is but kindness to say that he should unques- tionable devote considerable time to regular and persevering private practice before he again ven- tures to sing in public. Miss Marian Williams next sang She wore a wreath of roses," and gained an encore, for doing so. It is of course not to be expected that vocalists whose training is still in- complete should invariably sing with finished ease or unvarying excellence, and this song evinced a cer- tain lack of that confidence which generally accom- panies the consciousness of power. Miss Williams' standard, however, was fully maintained in Robin Adair," which she sang in acknowledgement of the encore. Beethoven's chorus concluded the first portion of the programme. Miss Marian Williams' singing of Somebody was one of the attractions of the evening, the sprightly and playful air with its suggestiveness being sung with an archness and grace which evoked a well-merited encore, and the fair songstress acknowledged the compliment by giving the "Maid of Llangollen" in very pleasing style. The remaining songs were very successfully sung the performances of the amateurs towards the close of the proceedings being loudly applauded. The concert, which concluded with the National Anthem, was manifestly productive of general pleasure, and it is to be hoped that in the future when the young vocalists from the Academy shall have entered upon the realisation of the successful career which their fine talents amply indicate to be in store for them, they will not forget that in their early days Machynlleth gave them a kindly wel- come and sympathetic encouragement.

DESPERATE ENCOUNTER WITH A CONGER EEL.— Two of our most respectable tradesmen fond of nocturnal sea-fishing with a foot net on the beach, met with one of these monsters of the deep on Mon- day night. The fish became entangled in the net, and was landed after a struggle, but the "sea serpent" not liking terra firrna began its pranks, and looked its antagonists in the face, and for some time kept them at bay by rearing itself up and exhibiting sharp teeth, which very much resembled those of a saw. A few heavy blows were dealt on the back of the head, which for a time partly stunned the eel, another attack, however, resulted, the creature wouldn't say die," and began to struggle and face the jolly fishermen in every direction. A long pole, which was shoved into its mouth, was crushed by those "grinders "as if it had been an egg, another supposed deadly blow was inflicted, and the eel was taken up for dead, put into a bag head downwards, the greater portion of the tail projecting from the sack. The prey was then slung over one of the parties' shoulders before it had been there long, the tail of the fish coiled round the neck of the bearer, and his shouts were heard by his companion, who was engaged in looking after the net, and who instantly ran to the rescue. After some trouble the man was released from what must have been any thing hut a pleasant position. The creature by this time had worked its way out of the bag, and looked round again evidently prepared for another struggle, ultimately, however, after it had been dealt roore sharp blows it became disabled, was ''given the sack" once more, and conveyed home. It weighed 20 lbs., and measured 5ft. CONCERT.—A highly successful concert was given on Tuesday evening in the British Schoolroom at this place, by the Towyn Choral Society, assisted by Miss Marian Williams and Miss Duval, of the Royal Academy of Music. The following lady amateurs also kindly lent their willing co-operation :—Miss Kettle, the Misses Feeney, and Miss Powell, and their clever and graceful performances tended greatly to increase the (clat of the proceedings. The room was crowded, and the evening's entertaiu- ment was evidently productive of general satisfac- tion. The following programe was gone through in a most tasteful and pleasing manner :—Chorus, Hallelujah," choir song, Bird of the Spring- time," Miss Duval song and chorus, Rock me to sleep," Mr E. Jones and choir; duet, "I know a bank," Miss Marian Williams and Miss Duval Welsh glee, "Y Blodt-uyn Olaf," the choir ;song, Gogerddan."

PUBLIC MUSIC IN ABERYSTWYTH.

PUBLIC MUSIC IN ABERYSTWYTH. To the Editor of the Aberystwyth Observer. SIR,—I think the old complaint which used to be so frequently, touchingly, and, perhaps in some respects justly, brought against Aberystwyth as a would-be attractive place of summer resort, that it did not offer sufficient public amusements to render it agreeable to visitors, cannot with any fair amount of justice be urged this year. It is not in reason to suppose that every taste can be satisfied. We cannot offer racing to the horsey, nor skittles to the beery but, in addition to what a bountiful Nature has done for us in giv- ing us one of the most beautiful bays in the world, with its lovely coast scenery, we are certainly able to provide a most Attractive promenade pier, and a very considerable amount of good music. Perhaps the reader, if of a. critical, not to say cynical, turn of mind, may here say, and a very considerable amount of bad." But I beg to observe, for such a reader's information, that I am not alluding to the somewhat unclean and very un- savoury Savoyards with their bagpipes, to the fiends who grind organs, to the niggers" with their bones and banjos, nor to the hard hammered drum and cracked cornet of the band which may too frequently be heard late in the evening on the Promenade Pier, but to the very refined and finished performance of the Tyler Band. I am not going to give unqualified praise to them and I shall have a. bone to pick with you Mr Editor, by-and-bye, for some remarks of yours in a recent notice of their weekly concerts but I will say this of them, that as our Yankee friends would say, take them all round," one may go a long way and not meet anything to surpass them. They can play, and play well; that is certain. The "careful and courteous"—as you call him—master has trained them well, and has managed to get toge- ther a most attractive and pleasant little band, and there is no doubt their fresh youthful faces and pretty uniform have not a little to do with their attractiveness. Still, in spite of an amusing letter written by the boys" in answer to another by a certain gaby who wrote to a contemporary complain- ing very unjustly of their doings, I think the careful and courteous" might favour the public with a little more diversity. It is all very well for the boys" to say their repertoire includes mnsic from Rossini to 'Pop goes the weasel'"—although, thank good- ness, I have never heard them play the latter!—but there is no denying they do give us too much of the same fa-re and it is well known that fickle mankind loves a change in music as well as in diet. But any- how, if the manager would only expunge from his list Let the hills resound," "God bless the Prince of Wales," and the Lover and the Bird with his own twiddle-widdle-wee" flageolet obbligato, I for one should be content, and would most heartily declare that the Tyler Band is the best that has visited Aberystwyth for many a year. Indeed, I would go further, and say that I hope they will visit us again and again, and for many years to come, and until the little lady who now delights us with her skilful management of the cymbals becomes a staid and middle-aged materfamilias. Now as to their weekly concerts. I am not going to say anything about Mr Balcombe's kindness in lending the beautiful Assembly Room at the Queen's Hotel; for the manner in which he has always been ready to aid in any work having for its object the advancement and benefit of the town is too well known to Require any comment. I am simply going to remark that these little weekly meetings are delightful, and that it must afford great satisfaction to everyone interested in them and the musical taste of the town to see how well they are attended by townspeople as well as by visitors. And now, Mr Editor, a word about that same recent notice of yours to which I have before alluded. I fully and entirely agree with what you say as to the advisa- bility of getting more cornet and less bellringiug, but whether you are quite right as to there being no desire anywhere to hide a light under a bushel, you and I must agree slightly to differ. To my mind, and to that of many others quite capable of discern- ing and discriminating, that light" has been hitherto somewhat kept in obscurity, and that it should be so seems to me a thing to be deplored. It must be a source of regret to many other of the Tyler band admirers, besides myself, that the band stand has come to what appears to be hopeless and irremediable griet That delightful evening, after- dinner stroll, when one could listen to the band "discoursing sweet sounds," admire the dear polo- naises and chignons, and speculate on the possibility of there being any brains under puggarees "-afte) sundown, let us say—ah, who can think of it without repining! And now what have we ? Puggarees and polonaises enough certainly but what else? In the extreme distance is to be discerned a very small crowd, suggestive at first sight of thimble-rig or mountebanks—by the bye, Sergeant Evans would look pretty sharply after the former—but as one ap- proaches it the dulcet sounds of "The Lover and the Bird" become audible, and, after a little persistent pushing, the smart little follows of the Tyler's be- come visible, doing their best to perform their con- tract and act as a town band; but totally failing in that laudable desire, inasmuch as they can scarcely be heard or seen. Now, don't you think, Mr Editor, that something should be done to remedy this state of things:" Should not the Town Council do some- thing to assist the painstaking band committee; pr does that astute body think that music, except in the form or psalm-singing, is an unnecessary evil ? Really it would seem so, and can one under such circum- stances wonder that places like Scarborough and Llandudno outstrip Aberystwyth? I think it will scarcely be credited by visitors that the governing body of the town does not give one single penny towards the support of the band, when it is known that in almost every other watering-place considerable sums are voted for such a purpose. The voluntary contribution system sounds very well; but those only who have tried it know what terrible difficulties it presents to those who under it seek to obtain money for any public object. The band committee has for two seasons laboured hard to find funds for the purpose of giving the town a respectable and efficient band, and every one who will take the trouble to recollect the class of people who previously constituted our season bands, must heartily admit that the committee has been very suc- cessful in its praiseworthy efforts, and that it de- serves not only the thanks of the town, but a much larger and more ready pecuniary support than, from what I can gleam, it has received this year.-I am, sir, yours obediently, R. S. W.
