LAYING THE MEMORIAL STONES OF A NEW ENGLISH CHAPEL. On Monday afternoon last the interesting cere- mony of laying the memorial stones of the new English Presbyterian chapel which is now in course of being built for the congregation who have fo the last nine years worshipped in Turf- square Chapel, took place-the work of placing the stones being executed in a graceful manner by Mrs Pugh, Llysmeirion, and Mr Richard Davies, M P., Treborth. The new edifice,which will be a decided arquisi- tion:to Carnarvon, occupies a commanding site on the east side of Castle-square, being between the recently-erected Post OfF.,e and the premise J of the North and South Wales Bank. The style ad- pted is a thirteenth century Gothic, the plan being a parallelogram 65 feet long, including the vestibules, and 32] feet wide, with an additional organ reces3, 15 feet by 4 feet 6 inches, and also a gallery over the west end the whole providing seat room for 400 people. On the ground fl. or, at the east and, there are vestries, class-room, cloak room, lavatory,&c.,and over these there is a school- room, and below provision is made for heating ap- paratus, &c. All the elevations are carried out in stone, the sides being Port Naut granite, the front ani wIngs; inolkshreparpoint8. All the dressings are in Gwespyr stone, the whole front and wings, with all openings, very deeply revealed and moulded. The south-west angle will have a to Nel and spire one hundred feet high, the spire to be all dressed stone. One of the principal entrances will be in the tower, very deeply revealed. All walls inside the vestibules and staircases are to be built of clean white brick with stone dressings. The interior will be carried out in pitch pine, dressed clean, some portions varnished and some not. The roof will be ham-, mered beam, exposing principal ribs and mullions, fin shed between with boarding, the intersection with wall to have carbolled cornice. All the pews will be commodious, framed in pitch-pine, some portions pannelled with walnut, with all the latest improvements. All windows to be glazed with lead lights aDd cathedral glass in tints. The area in front will be enclosed with wall, piers, and handsome iron railing. The whole contract has been let to Mr R. R. Williams, Bank-quay, Car- narvon, who has already made good progress with Rework. The architect is Mr Richard Owens, rtck-road, Liverpool, under whose superinten- the work will be carried on. The amount of Vit n.0n^rac^ *8 £ 2349, the other liabilities incurred JLrt being £ 1,300 for the land, and ■ _i apparatus and other expenses—a in band 11^ Towards the expanses £ 2,200 was Vif-ainpd im *J°nc*ay morning, £ 850 having been »eoWch»pel in Turf- S°EJ»M,iUT''iUG *s £ V350 T e on. oJ 'k0 church and a few out- "'I'liXof ^refive subscribers of £ 100 each, „ i and seven of amounts averaging FRM £ i\ J the cW\E6T 0wen Edwards, B A., tbepasto -tt w the chairman of the builaing c • e oJ honorary secre- t-try and h. iiO a^y eaauret devolving upon Mr M.

U UUgn Although th3 somewhat threaten- ing, the ceremony a t"ctt,d j«ge attendance To open the proceedings the pastor (the Rev O Edwa.ds, B A ) read suitable portiona of Scrip." ture and offered up a prayer. Mrs Pugh and Mr Richard Davias were then eaeh presented with a silver trowel bearing an m,8.cnP ,'n setting forth the occasion of the presentation^ the one for Mrs Pugh be.ng presented ^7,1 .ornf secre- tary), and the one for Mr Davies by Mr James Evans, Bron- y. maen. The trowels were supplied by Mr T. O. Jones, ironmonger, Eastgate-atreet. After the ceremony of placing the stones was over, Mr Richard Davies, M.P. for Anglesey, said When I promised to be present on this occas- ion, I did it in the hope that the honourable member for the county would be present also, and t,h*t I should have little to do but to support him. This ceremonial of laving foundation stones is one, t,b,t I should have little to do but to support him. This ceremonial of laving foundation stones is one, I must confess, which I do not appreciate ¡ very much I have again and again declined the I honour when it has bien kindly offered to me, and I should have liked to do the same on this occasion, and to have been allowed to come here as a friend or spectator only. But I did not decline, us you see, and that simply because I sympathize so I deeply with the work that is represented by this gathering here to-day—the work of building and of establishing English ehurehes in Wales in connection with the Calvinistic Methodist body, Yr Hen Gorph," that is so dear to many of us here. I would not willingly do anything that could be supposed to shoW' any want of interest aad sympathy on my part with a work which I feel to be so important. Iu years gone by I med to regret that such important centres as Bangor and Carourvoo were so backward, w thit cause, but thac regret is no longer posBwlè-botb our friends at Bangor, and you here at Carnarvon, have started with a will; and have doue this under auspices which, 1 trust, promise gtertt ultimate success. Undoubtedly, this work is in a seute progressing among uf. English services Are being started, and Englioh churches being built here and there among us. But I fear many of them may have to struggle for existence, and those who put their shoulders to the wheel are likely to and it rather up-hill work for some time to come. This English cause has not get gained the full, hearty, sympathy and good-will of our Welsh churches. And yet surely the need is a pressing one. On the one hand, there are the English resident friends, and those who come among uafor the summer months only, to be thought of. It must be a wise thing, as well as a right one, to provide suitable and attractive services for them on the Sabbath day. I know, from what I have heard people say myself, that many are in- fluenced in their choice of mere summer q-aarters, still more in the choice of a permanent residence, by the character of the Sabbath privileges they expect to have, either in this place or in that. But, on the other hand, there is a still more urgent and pressing reason; and that is, that as a connexion we should be ready to meet the need that is bound to arise from the gradual, but certain, spreading of the English language in Wales You see what our elementary schools are doing for us in that way. If we could compare Wales as it is now with Wales as it was fourteen yeirs ago, before the Education Act was passed, we should see a mighty change. And we are not content with thiags as they are either. We are impatiently looking forward to increased educational advan- tages. More Grammar Schools, and those more efficient; more colleges, with promised Govern- ment help to support them; and I cannot men- tion this point without alluding to that letter of Mr Lewia Morris that appeared lately in our Welsh papers. I hope his word of warning will be heird, and that we shall be able to sink all minor local desiro3 and claims and to approach the subject of our new colleges with the earnest desire of choosing that which is best for Wales, and which will enable ua to secure to the full the promised help of our Liberal Government. But as I was saying, the result of; all this will be the gradual but sure advance of the English language among tiS; and if our children and their children, many of them anyhow, are to be kept true to their old faith—their Nonconformist faith, their Calvinistic Methodist faith,-the means of grace must be provided for them, and provided suitably, and in due time for them in the English language. As yet.however, those oi us who move in this matter do not find the zeal and liberality for which (especially in this matter of church extension) Wales is famous, at all ready to flaw into this new channel—the need of it does not come home to us as a people yet. We are not more unselfish, I pre- sume, than the rest of human-kind. We don't feel the need of English churches for ourselves, and the need of many of our young people in the future, as well as the need of the strangers that come among us, does not reach us and touch us as it should. Then there is our nation- ality, we are so proud of beieg Welsh; we are so attached-and most deservedly so-to our fine old language and our old Welsh Bible, our Welsh hymns, and our grand Welsh preaching. We are quite willing to take English for a business language, but we regard it as rather an intruder when it approaches our religious circles, so that thus we find that what were sources of the most powerful incentives to the zeal and labour of Nonconformist Wales in the past are absolute hindrances as yet to this important work of the future. I am sure I need not say that I do not want to see the old Welsh language dying out; I can say from my heart, May the Welsh language live for ever; nor do I desire to see English churches supplanting Welsh ones in Wales. But as the English tide rises, as common sense tells us it must rise, what I do desire is^ that our old Calvinistic Methodiat connexion may be able to breast the tide and rise with it. And it is to this end we long to see a warmer and more cordial interest taken by our Welsh churches in the struggling young English sisters that are springing up around them. There may be many difficulties ahead in the co-working of the two languages in one religious body, but nothing can help more to smooth those difficulties than a kindly and generous temper on the part of the older and more influential branch. In Car. narvon, I doubt not, you that are specially inter. ested in this English church will meet with this kindness and sympathy from your Welsh friends to the full. We all rejoiced with you last spring when we heard of the religious revival that visited the various churches of this town, beginning, I believe, with our ever active and laborious friends the Wesleyana. I hope the good effects of that revival continues. No one can wish to the Welsh and English churches of this town, of all denomin. ations, more success and blessing than I do. But as long as outward divisions and sects have their places in God's visible church, so long will it be right and natural that we shall each labour for that special form of doctrine that we think has been committed to us, glorying and rejoicing at the same time that we all alike hold the same Head, even Christ, and desire only the same end, the spreading of His kingdom and righteousness all over the,world. In that spirit I do mott heartily rejoice in the commencement of this new church, in connection with our own people. I earnestly desire that the Divine blessing may rest on all who are interested in it, on the members of the church and on the congregation, and on your minister, so that you, in your turn, may be made a great blessing to this place. Mr M. T. Morris announced that Mrs Pugh had subscribed 1.50 (in addition to a previous donation of :CIOO by Mr Pugh) towards the building fund. This intimation was received with acclamation. Mr Davies also subscribed 120 towards the same object Mr Thomas Williams, Golden Goat, then came forward to proposed a vote of thanks to Mrs Pugh and Mr Davies. Mr Williams referred, in feeling terms, to Mrs Pugh's late respected father (Sir Hugh Owen), whose efforts on behalf of 'ducarion in Wales was above all praise Mr Willivns also referred to the connection, by marriage, of Mr Richard Davies with one of the most eminent ministers which Wales ever produced—the Rev Henry Rees, of Liverpool. No one had done mere for Welsh Nonconformity than that good and eminent man, and Mr Davies, as they all knew, was a son-in-loW of that reverend gentleman.—Mr Cadwaladr Williams, Leeds House, seconded the motion, which was carried with cheers. Reference having beea made to the liberality of Mr John Owen, Ty Coch, and family (who had subscribed £ 150 towards the new chap- in addi tion to some £ 200 or £ 300 vhich they had given towards the old chape!), and the Doxology having been sung, the proceedings terminated.

THE GRAND CONOERT AT THE PAVILION. The above concert WM held on Monday evening, m aid of the new English Presbyterian chapel, Lastie-srju&re. The Pavilion was filled with a re- spectable audience. Part was taken in the proceedings by the Nantlle Vale Choral Union, the Arvonic Male Society. Peu-y groes Juvenile Choir, Madame Lizzie Williams, Miss Hwai ie, and E os Morlais. The proceedings began by the Llanberis Choir rendering Y Gwanwyn" (Muller), and not "Comrades in arms," asws8 on the programme. The rendering was good, but I we consider that the tim ? was too quick. Following this, Eos Motlaia sang Eow yam ]& man,' — excellent readeriug, the Eos being in excellent tr,m. Then the Chorus, The Better Laud," wea given by the Pen-y-groes Juvenile Choir. They sang sweetly and masterly, and it was evident teat they had made a.fiair impressi >n on the audience As to the young girl thut sar.g the solo in the middle of the chorous, she performed her part so well that Dr. W. J. Williams presented her with a sovereign. Atterwards Misa Svvaine sang j" In the gloaming" 111 an exunbite manner. She wts foUowed by a duet (from Blodwen) by Ma Jacue Lizzie Williams ;)nd Eos Aluriaie. They were compelled to re-appear, and they rendered the sutne piece Lig,,Iu in Welsh. The next thing was the readeriug of the Soldier's Chorus," (Paary). This chorus was sunp, in a powerful and expr^b'sive mnuner. ->iadatn« L'zzlt Williams I i' then gang the Scotch ballad a a mile of Edinboro' Town," exceedingly well. The anthem Praise the Lord (Thomas) was then rendered by the Nantlle Vale Choral Union in a beautiful manner, which completed the first part of the pro- gramme. During the interval the competition for the best rendering of any solo took place, the audience being adjudicators. The competitors were ten in number, and they came forward in the fol- lowing order1, Mr J. H. Dew. He saug The Three Sailor Boys." This is a difficult song, but Mr Dew showed much skill and taste in his ren- dering of it. 2, William Parry. He sang the well-known Welsh solo, "OWYlDP Llewelyn," He went through his work ably. 3, Mr LI. Jones He had also selected a difficult piece, viz., Revenge, Timotheus cries (Handel). He posaeeses a mel- odius baritone voice, and sang in good time, but was defective in spirit and expression. 4, Mr David Jones. He saøg "Y Gadlef Gymreig," in an exquisite manner, and was cheered as he stepped forward. His voice, though pernaps not so power- ful as some of his co-competitors, was more mel- odious than any, and in a smaller room he would have been a formidable rival 5, Mr L. L. Roberts. This competitor is to be praised for venturing forward with so difficult and classical a piece, viz., "Honour and Arms" (Handel). He also possesses a flexible and disciplined voice. He made the runs with as much ease as breathing; but was very defective in his articulation. 6, Mr Thomas Harris. He very wisely selected a solo with which ke was formely acquainted, namely, "Ifear no foe" (Adams). His rendering was powerful and finished. It was felt that a good competitcr was needed to excel him. 7, Mr W. W. Ellis. He sang "The White Squall," on Welsh words. This competitor should be praised for the masterly manner in which he rendered the piece. 8 Mr John G. Owen (Ap Glaslyn). This young'man obtained a hearty cheer on his appearance. He sang "Pleasure boat of the Niagara." We doubt whether a better expression could be given, and without over-doing the thing, than this competitor gave in his rendering. It was evident that he had made a deep impression on the majority of the audience. Indeed, some would have him to re-siug, but of course that would be against the rule. 9, Mr J. Ph. Jones. He gave a tender and pathetic lenderiug of the The Noble Boy of Truth" (Parry). In a smaller building his rendering would have been more effective. He possesses a melodious voice. 10, Mr R. W. Jones. He sang "The spirits of the brave." As he did not sing at all powerful, his voice was drowned in the sound of the instrument. Whilst the men were going round to collect the numbers, the Pen-y- groes Juvenile Choir gave a lively and excellent rendering of II Glory to Jesus" (Parry). After. wards Eos Morlais came forward, and rendered a new sacred song entitled Bethlehem" (Mr J. H. Roberts). The melodieus voice of Madame Lizzie Williams had an opportunity of showing its elas- ticity in her rendering of "Bid me discourse" (Bishop). In tte rendering of "The Reapers' Chorus" (Jenkins), by the Llanberis Choir, we were not disappointed. On the contrary, the ex- pression and colouriag were excellent, and showed a thorough knowledge of the difficult piece. Eos Morlais sang the "Children's Home" in a pleas- ing manner, and the rendering by Madame Lizzie Williams of the Nightingale's Thrill, was given worthy of the nightingale itself. Afterwards the "Amen Chorus," from GweledigatÅ loan, by W. Jarrett Roberts (Pencerdd Eifion), was ren- dered by the Nantlle Vale Choral Union. It will be remembered that this choir was successful on the above piece at the recent Denbigh Eisteddfod. A word of praise is due to this choir for the grand and powerful rendering of this chorus. Had this been the only thing on the pro- gramme, we should think that everyone would have had fu'l worth for his money. But no one must think that the whole praise rests in the rendering. The "Amen Chorus" ranges high for its musical quality, and welcongratulate the author on the masterly way in which thefuges hive been worked out in the chorus.—The collectors having finished their work with collecting the voting numbers, the Rev Owen Edwards came forward to read the re- sult. The various competitors stood us follows. 1. Mr J. H. Dew 37 2. pt WM. Pdrry 6S 3. „ LI. Jones 40 4. "David Jones 120 5. L. L. Roberta 47 6. Thomas Harris 217 7. W. W. F.Ilis e 42 8. J. G. Owen (Ap Glaslyn) 676 9. J. Ph. Jones 16 10. 31 R. W. Jones 62 From the above it will be seen that Ap Glaslyn was the best singer in the opinion of the audience. We congratulate him on his success in obtaining the prize in so close a competition. In closing our remarks we wish to say that the concert was one of the best that has been given at Carnarvon for a long time. The work of preparing and ar- ranging the voting tickets was entrusted to Mr Dan Rhys, who did his duty in a very satisfactory manner.

On Friday, the 1.)tb. inst., John Smith, a professional tramp, was brought up in custody by P.C. Thomas, Llanfair, and charged before Dr Jenkins with begging in the parish of Llanfair. He was sent to piison for fourteen days. The magistrate remarked to the prisoner that he might inform his acquaintances that every one charged before hiru with beggiug and found guilty would be committed to prison for the same length of time. THE UHUBCH OF ENGLAND TEMPERANCE SOCIETY. —The usual fortnightly meeting of the above society was held at the Bryn Hyfryd School on Wednesday evening, the 11th inst. In the un- avoidable absence of the mayor, who had promised to preside, the chair was taken by Mr A. P. Lewis (L. and P. Bank). The attendadce was exception- ally good. Addresses were delivered by Messrs T. P. EO'^erts and B. Bryan. Readings and re-ita- tions were also given. At the close of the meeting several pledges were taken, and a great inanv donned the Blue Ribbon. The movement is progressing very favourably, and we notice that the wearers of the blue ribbon occupy quite a prominent place in the town. NATIONAL EISTEDDFOD.—A meeting of the tradesmen and ratepayers of the town was he'd at the Council Chamber an Monday night, the 16th nst., to consider the desirability of making an application for the National Eisteddfod of 1884. The mavoc took thj chair, and spoke strongly in favour of making the application. Amongst those present was Major Cornwallis West, who spcke upou (he subject at considerable length, and pointed out, in the course of his remarks, the desirability that the committee should hot in periect union with the council of the Cymmrodor- ion Society. It was finally decided that the fol- lowing gentlemen should be formed into a com- mittee to IDÐke inquiries as to whether a pavilion company has been started for the eisteddfod as well as to other matters :—Major W. Cornwallis West (lord lieutenint of the county), the mayor. Mr Ezra Roberts, Mr J. Simon, Mr Bancroft, and Dr Jenkins. THE DEBATING SOCIETY.-The members of this society met on Friday night at their room in the Town Hall, when the chair was occupied, in the absence of Mr Shirville, by Mr Alun Lloyd. On the motion of Mr Watts, a committee was ap- pointed to draw up a new code of rules, and it was further decided that fifty copies of the said rules, they having been first affirmed by the mem- beTS at an ordinary meeting, be printed, and that a copy be given to each member. It was subse- quently agreed that the committee should meet on Monday night following. It was also decided that the society should henceforth hold its meetings on Wednesday nights instead of Friday nights. On the motion of Mr J. Wallis Davies it was resolved that no member who has not paid his subscription be entitled to vote. The debate subj ct was The existence of ghosts." Mr J. Walmsley led the affirmative, and Mr J. Newton Jones the nega- tive. Mr Walmslev supported the theory of the existence of ghosts by references to the Scriptures, and by quoting various strange incidences in the history oi certain individuals which he said were all favourable to the belief that there are ghosts. Mr Newton Jones, in leading the negative, contended that when a person fancies he sees a ghost it is an act of the imagination, and he supported his view by reference to the fact that it is seldom anyone hears at present of a man having seen a ghost, whereas in former times it happened continually. This he attributed to the progress of education and to the fact that men are not so apt as they formerly were to believe anything which is not borne out by reason. Mr Walmsley was seconded by Mr W. P. Owen, and Mr Jones by Mr J. Wallis Davias. The majority of those who took part in the debate supported the negative, and tried to explode the theory that there is such a Lhing as a ghost. Not until the discussion was over, and the time for voting came, did the question what they were going to vote for present itself, and it was finally decided that th 1 vote should be taken on two issues. 1st, whether there waa such a thing as a ghost, taking the word in its abstract sense, which was unanimously affirmed; and 2nd, did the house believe in the existence of ghosts, taking the word in its vulgar sense. This was unanimously negatived. SPECIAL SESSIONS, MONDAY. Before Dr Jenkins. Larceny.—John Lloyd, a native of Mold, was brought up in custcdy by Inspector Humphreys, under a remand, and charged by Peter Harrison, Acre Farm, near Llandegla, with stealing one shirt, value 2a. 6d., and one singlet, value 2s. 6d., from a bedroom at Acre Farm, on the 11th of this month.—The prosecutor was called to give evidence and said he had known the prisoner for some time, and had been a fellow-servant with him at Acre Farm. The prisoner left the farm on the 7th in a; but returned on the 10th, and slept there that night. The prosecutor waa rising in the morning about six o'clock^ and noticed then that his shirr, and singlet were in the room. He noticed also that a shirt belonging to the prisoner was tanging on a nail close by his shirt. The prisoner having once left returned to the farm about ten o'clock in the morning, and the preecutot having known this went to the room to look for his things and found that the shirt and the singlet wer-i gone. He gave information to P.C. Hughes, by whom the prisoner was apprehended and brought to Acre Farm about twelve o'clock, at which tboe the prisoner told him (the witness) he would pay for the articles if he would not put him in charge.— P.O. Hughes said that from information he had re- ceived from the last witness he went in search of the prisoner and found him drinking at the Crown Inn, Llandegla. The witness charged him with the offence, and the prisoner in reply said he had not stolen the articles, but admitted he had been in the room but went there to fetch his own things. Subsequently he that he would pay Harrison for the articles he would not give him in custody. Witness took him to Acre Farm, and from there to Ruthin to Inspector Humphreys, who ordered Ihim to be detained. -Mr Phil'ips, chief warder of Ruthin Gaol, said he kuew the prisoner very well. There Were three former convictions against him for larceny and one for vagrancy.—The prisoner, having nothing to say in defence, was fully com- mitted to take his trial at Lhe next quarter sessions.
