The Welshman

As the Municipal year has just terminated, it will not Perhaps be inapt if we proceed to take a cursory review Of the transactions of the Town Council during its pro- cess, without having any other present intention than tlat of re-calling to the minds of the inhabitants of the good old town" of Carmarthen, the principal events that have either elicited their attention or affected their Merest, for the purpose mainly of ascertaining whether "e have or have not kept pace with the enlightened and Degressive spirit of the times. NVith regard to the lengthened and tedious discus- sions relative to the works at the New Market, they have been so utterly profitless to all parties concerned in *hem, that we purposely abstain from reviving a subject "'hich caused so much contention, contenting ourselves "ith remarking that the New Markets are now pro- basing very favourably, that the whole of the building 4PPears to be well constructed, and that the great under- taking is expected to be completed in March next. Amongst the most important topics which have de- lved and received the anxious consideration of the Council are the erection of a Lighthouse at the entrance Qfour Bay and the appointment of licensed Pilots for our ort and river. The first of these questions was mooted by THOMAS CHARLES MORRIS, ESQ., and although the original proposition has been considerably modified by the Trinity Board, yet we believe the full benefit of the Imposed Lighthouse will be secured to our coasters since a floating light ship will be placed on the dan- gerous Helwick aands. The second object has been attained mainly, if not entirely, through the indefati- gable perseverance of MR. JOB JONES, who devoted his ^remittingattention to the subject until success finally Croxvtied his efforts. But these improvements with regard to the navigation Qr our river are only the precursors of a much more lniportant one, which is about to be effected by the Great 1iorth and South Wales and Worcester Railway Com- Pa.n)', whose extremely liberal offer to the Corporation ,bust be fresh in the minds of our readers. We have it, 01t Undoubted authority, that in December, the month specified by the Company, an experienced engineer will be despatched to Carmarthen for the purpose of taking soundings of the river, estimating the expense of its ilndrovemeiit, and adopting such other steps as may be del'mcd advisable. This matter, we may here be permit- ted to remark, was primarily brought under the notice of D irectors, by MR. CHARLES BIUGSTOCKE, after the tl'e I)irectors, by I l\ubhc meeting held at the Ivy Bush Hotel in October ^t. At his urgent request the Directors took the lRtter into their serious consideration, and, after having lMed such statistics as they could rapidly possess them- thes of, and which we believe were supplied by MR. eBa and other gentlemen well acquainted with the I1l>n, they laid their proposal before a very influential Feting of the inhabitants when it was highly approved I>r and a cordial vote of thanks awarded on the motion or J) MORRIS, ESQ., M.P., for their very liberal offer. Again, considerable difficulty arose respecting the rl ge proposed to be thrown across the Towy by the Wales Railway Company, and the interests of tile town so far as they were likely to be deteriorated by the partial stopping up of the passage of the river :tl ably upheld by E. H. STACEY, EQ., and MR. C. ItIG6TOCKI:, 10 much so that eventually on the repre- ssions of the Member for the Borough and the Mayor, the Admiralty insisted upon a clause being inser- ted in the South Wales Railway Act guaranteeing a clcar water way of 50 feet. Another subject for congratulation presents itself in the fact that the funds necessary for erecting a hand- some and commodious school-room for Sir Thomas Powell's school arc nearly subscribed, and that a Ica-e of a spot of ground for the purpose has been obtained from Jesus College. A negotiation for the consolidation of the Borough gaol with that of the county, is in progress, the ques- tion having been brought before the notice of the Coun- cil by WILLIAM Moiuus, ESQ. Should the negociation prove successful, a considerable saving to the Borough will, it is calculated, be effected. Having thus rapidly enumerated the principle events of the past year, we will close our observations by re- marking that further improvements were in contempla- tion, one especially deserving of notice having been mentioned by MR. W. SIMONS, which however was thought premature, we allude to the proje ■_ of clearing a space behind the present Town Hall by pulling down the half-ruined buildings which are at present an eye- sore to the passer by and occasion great inconvenience to the traffic jf the town and neighbourhood. We hope, however, to see this project again brought forward. On the whole then we may conclude that the pro- ceedings of the past year have been far from discour- aging, and if in the hurried review the reader finds anything to encourage and stimulate to fresh exertions our representatives in the municipal conclave, our pur- pose will have been fully and satisfactorily attained. We will now only remark that it behoves the Electors rigidly to examine the merits of the various candidates who may present themselves at the approach- ing election, and only to select those gentlemen who will be likely to lend all the aid in their power to further their interests by promoting improvements of every kind likely to conduce to the ultimate benefit of the ancient capital of South Wales. • -■

LATEST NEWS. LO-NDON, WEDNESDAY EVEIG. A Cabinet Council was held at half-past two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, at the Foreign-office. The Mi- nisters present were Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wel- lington, Lord Wharncliffe, the Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Stanley, Sir James Graham, the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, the Earl of Haddington, the Earl of Ripon, Lord Granville Somerset, the Earl of Lincoln, and the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert. The Council sat four hours. Another Cabinet Council was held at the Fo- reign Office at three o'clock, on Wednesday. All the Cabinet Ministers in town were present. TUE LORD CLIk,CLLI,Olt. -Ttie accounts received from Turville on Wednesday morning are very favour- able. They state that the noble and learned lord is daily improving in health and strength. His lordship, however, is not sufficiently recovered to be able to attend the formal prorogation of Parliament. LADY VILLIERS.-Tlie reports from Upton House are very satisfactory. The answer is, Lady Villiers is much better, and no danger is now apprehended. VISIT OF THE QUEEN TO OSBORNE HOUSE, The Queen and Prince Albert left Windsor Castle at half-past nine on Tuesday morning for Osborne House, Isle of Wight. Her Majesty and her Royal Consort, accompanied by the Prince of "Wales and the Princess Royal, occupied the first carriage. The Princess Alice and Lady Portman were in the next; and Lord Charles Wcllesley, and Cols. Bowles and Wylde in the third. Her Majesty was escorted by a party of the 2d Life Guards, under Lieut. Cornwallis Maude. The royal party were attended to their carriages by the Dowager Lady Lyttleton, Lady Caroline Cocks, lion. Miss Dcvercux, Viscount Ilawarden, Captain the lIon. A. Duncombe, Sir H.Wheatley, and the lion, and Rev. C. L. Courtenay. The royal party proceeded from the Castle to the Farnborough station of the South Western Railway, en route to Osbr.rne House. Prince Alfred with the Dowager Lady Lyttleton remain at the Castle. Captain Duncombe, Groom in Wailing, also remains. Lady Caroline Cocks, the Hon. Miss De- vereux, Sir II. Wheatley, Mr. Anson (for town), and Viscount Ilawarden, took their departure to-day. Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Albert, with the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal, accompanied by their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess Augustus of Saxe Coburg, and attended by Lady Port- man, Lady Caroline Somers Cocks, and lIr. Anson, with a retinue of domestic attendants, arrived in four Royal carriages at the terminus of titc South-Westcrn Railway in the Royal Clarence Victualling-yard, at Gosport, at 3-5 minutes after 12 on Tuesday. Her Majesty and the Royal party were received at the Clarence-yard by the Naval Commander-in-Chief, Ad- miral Sir Charles Ogle, with his flag captain, Sir R Grant, Captain Mowbray, Captain Chads, Captain C. Hope, Captain Carter, and the officers of the guard, the Lieutenant Governor, Major General the Hon. Sir Her- cules Pakenham, Colonel Lord Paulet, Colonel Crabbe, and Colonel Malet, of the 8th, with a guard of honour from the regiment, under command of Capt. Holmes, with their splendid band. On alighting from the rail- way carriages the Royal party, preceded by her Ma- jesty, and conducted by Sir Charles Ogle, proceeded im- mediately to the landing stairs. At this time the rain came down incessantly, but the distance between the terminus and the Royal barge was so short, that the Royal party suffered but little inconvenience, and the canopy being up in the barge prevented them from getting wet. Both the Victoria and Albert, and her tender the Fairy, were ready with their steam up, but her Majesty preferred the little If airy, to which vessel Lord Adolpus Fitzclarence steered the barge, followed by the respective naval captains, in their different boats. So soon as the Royal cortege were on board the Fairy, that vessel cast off her warps and steered out of har- bour, and landed at the new pier, East Cowes, a little after two o'clock, where carriages were in waiting to convey her Majesty and suite to Osborne House. The customary honours were paid her Majesty on her passing through Portsmouth. The St. Vincent, 120, the Victory, the Excellent, the Sparrow, and a variety of vessels, yachts, and tenders, were all dressed with flags. On the standard being hoisted at the Cla- rence-yard, the St. Vincent and the Victory, and the garrison battery, all fired Itoyal salutes. On the stan- dard being hoisted in the barge, the several ships man- ned yards, and when the Fairy cast off her warps, the Thalia, Victory, St. Vincent, Sparrow, &c., all cheered in tllCi usual thusiastic way. The rain poured down incessantly all the morning, but when the Fairy went out of the harbour it cleared oft, and her Majesty had a dry passage to Cowes. The Hon. Lady and Miss Pakenham were at the Royal Clarence-yard when the illustrious party arrived and had the honour to receive a Kind recognition from her Majesty, as she alighted from the railway carriage. CORN-EXCHANGE.—-WEDNESDAY. The arrivals of English wheat since Monday have been snvill, the value of all kinds remains unaltered from that day and the same will apply to bailey, beans, and peas, with only a moderate business doing in either. Oats are held for rather more money, but sales are limited. THE REPEAL ASSOCIATION. The proceedings at the Conciliation Hall on Monday were little better than a defence of Mr. O'Connell against a recent letter in the Times. The chair was taken by £ ?npt. Seaver. Mr. O'Connell having introduced his candidate for the vacant seat in Cork, Mr. Alexander M'Carthy rose and returned thanks, and pledged himself to join in the struggle for the repeal of the union. After the acknowledgment of money from Liverpool and elsewhere, Mr. O'Connell rose again, and exhibited a placard— one of a brace—that morning found pasted on the door of the Conciliation Hall. He believed that if the police took proper steps they could discover the printer of these atrocious documents, which called upon the peo- ple to murder the landlords. He really did believe the detective police had a hand in their production. (Groans.) THE "TBIES" COMMISSIONER. Mr. O Connell next observed, the Times newspaper had hired a fellow to go round the country lying, and he had emptied his full measure of calumny and slander upon him. He was certainly the best abused man in the world and instead of being tired of abusing him, his enemies were at it as fresh as ever. If there was any single point upon which he thought he was safe it was his conduct as a landlord. (Hear, hear.) He was always an enemy to extirpation, and he might add, the friend of the people. The only time lie ever was at- tacked was by Sergeant Jackson, who charged him in the House of Commons with distraining in June for May rent. The hon. sergeant made the charge on the authority of the gi-catest liar in existence—because the Times commissioner" was not then in being (laugh- ter.] He (Mr. O'Connell) proved to the satisfaction of the public that the charge so made in the House of Commons was a gross calumny. He had now the evi- dence taken by Lord Devon at Cahirciveen, and that the Times' commissioner was familiar with the book was manifest, because in every letter he wrote—- n speaking of every other person he quoted from it, but in speaking of him (Mr. O'Connell) he did not advert to the book at all (shame, shame.) In the letter, which was full of calumny against him, he also displayed the natural bent of his mind by maligning the entire people. He then read an extract from the commissioner's letter from Cahirciveen, which was to the effect that the Irish peasantry were lazy-- iiica I)able of acquiring sufficient knowledge to enable them to till thc ground, to fish, &c., bill that they exhibited immense cuuning in trying to pass a bad sixpence on him. The Times (continued Mr. O'Connell) complained that we entertain an anti- pathy towards Eugland. Now, he wished to know why he should not hate the country in which an establishment possessing great capital and power employed a scoundrel to malign the people of Ireland ? If he (Mr. O'Connell) had no other motive to press for the restoration of the Irish parliament, it would be to free his country from peo- ple who could so slander his country. He was honestly indignant for the calumnies on his countrymen, but he was careless for the lies on himself. But this lying fellow was not satisfied with abusing him, for he would have abused his dog if lie had come in his way. He had now by him the most incontrovertible proofs—documentary evidence beyond all suspicion—that the entire statement of that scoundrel is false-a gratuitous lie. He (Mr. O'Connell then took up seriatim all the passages in the commissioner's letter, and denounced them as lies. He denied that he was a middleman, as asserted by that writer. He called the statement that the streets of Cahirciveen were unpaved a lie, and proceeded to say that in 1818 he found but four houses in that town, with 20 inhabitants. At present there are 1200 inha- bitants there. He had created that town-the only town created in Ireland since the union. It was not even a village in 1818 (hear, hear.) He then went on to show that he had done sterling service for Cahir- civeen, which, if strictly correct, would not warrant the letter of which he complained. Among other donations, he said he gave £1000, secured at six per cent., to a nunnery near that town. This produced 1:60 a yeai-, which that establishment would have in perpetuity. He was £ 4000 out of pocket in other buildings in and about the town (hear, hear.) The liar, however, said that for any little good he (Mr O'Connell) did in improving the town of Cahirciveen, he was remunerated by the rent he received. He had to say, in reply to this, that he gave leases for ever—the small building lots he gave for 5s. a-year, the large for 10s.-and out of that large town he had the enormous profit-rent of £30 a-year (cheers.) Again, that liar said there was not a pane of glass in all the parish. Why, his house of Derrynane was in the parish, and there were 20 other houses in the parish inhabited by respectable families, but such was the fel- low's anxiety to lie, he could not admit a single pane of glass. If he had as many pains in his belly he would not feel comfortable (laughter.) He then read extracts from The Angler in Ireland," from Lord Devon's Report, and other documents, in reference to the dis- trict described by the Times' commissioner, and put it to the honest people of It-clarld-he would put it to the English themselves, whether such abominable false- hoods should be permitted to remain uncontradicted by the paper which circulated them ? (hear, hear.) When that person reported truth he would not be credited. His lies on O'Connell and the district in which he re- sided would be flung in his teeth. In conclusion, lie said, he forgave the liar and t e paper which employed him, as he was sure the public would treat his calumnies as they deserved (cheering for several minutes.) The rent was announced to be E158 2s. 9d., and the meeting separated. The latest accounts from New Zealand, by way of Sydney, brought a report of another engagement, in which upwards of fifty of the soldiers had been killed, having been driven out of their position by the natives. Firing was heard by the Thistle as she was passing by the Bay of Islands. The owner of the I Don't Know had been committed on a charge of high treason for fur- nishing ammunition and warlike stores to the insurgent Chief Heki and otliers.-A(lelaidc Observer, Sept. 28. DESTRUCTION OF THE BORNEO PIRATES.—No offi- cial intelligence has been received of the expedition of Rear Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, the Commander-in- Chief at China, in his flag-ship, and the squadron, against the Borneo pirates but sufficient private infor- mation confirms the accounts that the gallant admiral has rooted out the pirates from their stronghold, and has dealt with them in such manner as, it is believed, will effectually deter them from again calling forth such a demonstration. It appears that the Vestal, 2G, Captain Charles Talbot, had the honour of more par- ticularly chastising the wretches, whose enormities had increased to such an extent as to demand a summary check. She, it is said, preceded the squadron to a place called Mallooda, to the north of Borneo, which was found to be very strongly and skilfully fortified, two heavy batteries-flanking the place, and commanding the approaches to it. Notwithstanding the imagined im- pregnability of their position, the fancied security of the pirates was destroyed, and their desperate resistance ensured their more complete destruction not, however, as might be expected, without some loss on our side. AUSTRALIA.—-The most important news from Laun- ceston is the seemingly well-grounded report of an intention on the part of the Home Government to dis- continue sending prisoners to the colony of Van Die- men's Land. Port Essington is to be the nucleus of the intended penal settlement-to have the extensive govern- ment establishment—to be constituted a free port—and placed under the controul of Captain Matthew Foster, if that gentleman declines the Governorship of Van Diemen's Land on the advancement of Sir Eardley Wilmot to the Governor-Generalship of New Sonth W.I,s.Idelctitle Observer. MR. HUDSON AND THE GAUGES.—The Broad and Narrow Gauge Commission examined Mr. Hudson on Saturday. Mr. Hudson is a strenuous advocate of the narrow gauge, on the plea of economy, and he affirms that it possesses all the capabilities, as regards safety and speed, of the broad gauge. The main points of his evidence were to the following effect We have been enabled to do everything on the narrow gauge which the Great Western has accomplished on the broad. Economy was the great inducement for adopting the narrow gauge. It would be impolitic to enlarge the gauge, as they would gain nothing with regard to speed or power by it, as they had already sufficient power on the narrow gauge lines. The narrow gauge lines were more convenient for traffic. A truck weighing from seven to nine tons could easily be moved by one horse; but those on the Great Western, weighing 13 tons, could not be moved by one horse, and it was difficult to attach a leader to the load. He had seen this difficulty are at Bristol. Unless some great advantages could be derived from the broad gauge which had not been shown, he thought the narrow gauge had been wisely chosen. In his opinion the public has not overrated the inconvenience of a break of gauge."—Globe. SECEDERS FROM THE CiiuRcii.-The Right Rev. Dr. Wareing, Vicar Apostolic of the northern district has just addressed the following announcement to the editor of a provincial journal, in confirmation of a report prewously circulated, but discredited. Bisliop's- house, Northampton, Nov. 20.-Sir,-In no spirit of empty boast, but as a matter of fact, which-piay interest you and many of your readers, I send you the following short statement :-On Monday, the 1/th instant, the Rev. Frederick William Faber, rector of Elton, in the county of Huntingdon with seven of his parishoners and his friend Mr. Thomas F. Knox, B.A., Trinity College, Cambridge, made public profession of the Catholic faith in our collegiate chapel of St. Felix, in this town. On the following day I administered the sacraments of confirmation and the holy eucharist to the same pious company, who by their devout and religious comportment greatly edified the congregation present. Surely it is not too much to hope that, while the talented and amiable Faber, with so many thought- ful, reading, and devotional men, are in every quarter daily joining the communion of the Roman Catholic Church at the expense of all their temporal possessions and prospects-it is not too much to hope that many will pause before they insult and revile a religion which is daily gathering within her bosom so many estimable men of "unquestionable talent and exemplary piety.— I am, Sir, yours respectfully, W. Wareing. Gcobe.

CARMARTHENSHIRE. A sermon was preached at St. Peter's Church, on Sunday morning last, by the Venerable Archdeacon Be- van, in aid of the Boys' National School. Collections took place after the morning and evening services, when the sum of £ 16 13s. 7d. was contributed for this ex- cellent object. CARMARTHEN PETTY SESSIONS.—John Lewis and David Lewis (father and son) of Bwlchymynydd, Llan- gunnor, were fined E,5 and £ 2 respectively or in de- fault 2 calendar months in theJaouse of correction for cutting and stealing some oak and ash trees growing on the farm of Beaulieu fawr, the property of Mrs. Elizabeth Starke. THE STRIKE OF THE CARMARTHEN WEAVERS.— Meetings of both masters and men have been held during the week at one of the former, Mr. J ohn Evans, a master weaver, proposed giving the men an advance of 1 per yard. This was agreed to by the masters, but the men stood out for a penny per yard extra. After some demur and delay, most of the journeymen have returned to their usual avocations, at the advance pro- posed by the masters. Numbers of them have, however, taken their departure for Glamorganshire in hopes to better themselves either in that county or in England. CARM ARTIIEN BARRACKS.—We regret to learn that the negotiations between the government and the pro- prietor of the land adjoining the present barracks, for the purchase of land in order to their extensive enlarge- ment for the accommodation of cavalry as well as infantry, are not likely to lead to a satisfactory result, inasmuch as the difference in the price asked and that offered is very considerable. We understand that a noble proprietor of land in another part of the county, has gratuitously offered a site for the erection of cavalry barracks. It is to be regretted that any obstacle should arise, which appears likely to prevent their erection at Carmarthen and we would submit that the neighbour- hood of Glannant offers a very eligible spot for the erection of barracks, in consequence of the abundant supply of water in the locality. In case of the adoption of this place for the proposed barracks, the present barracks might easily and with great advantage to the town and county, be purchased from government and metamorphosed into a Lunatic Asylum, for one or more counties, as thf case may be. In this event, part of the expense of the purchase and metamorphose would of course be borne by the other counties joining in the subject. A most desirable object will thus be gained without inconvenience, and at a comparatively small expense. LIEUTENANT KIRWAN'S CASK.—The account of the examination into the charge against Lieutenant Kirwan, (well known in Carmarthen as belonging to the first trollp of Dragoons ever stationed in the town) will be found in another column, and will, wc have no doubt considerably interest our readers.

P EM B R OK ESHIR E I f,r INSTANCE OF HONESTY IN HUMBL:: LIFE.—About 9 or 10 years ago, a tailor named Rogers left Narberth in indigent circumstances to seek his fu- ture fortune in happier if not brighter climes. He left a few debts unpaid, which had long since been written oil as doubtful or bad, and took up 'his abode amidst the dingy atmosphere of the Glamorganshire Iron Works. A week or two since to the surprise of the creditors, a respectably dressed young man (son of the delinquent) appeared amongst them, and with praiseworthy exact- ness discharged, by his father's request, everv farthing he had left unpaid. PEMBROKESHIRE HUNT MEETING.— In our last number we noticed the early entertainments in con- nection with this meeting, which closed on Saturday last. On Friday the hounds met at the Rath; the weather being propitious, a large party of horsemen were out, and were amply compensated for the defi- ciency of sport on the two previous occasions. In a short time two foxes were unkennelled from Scolton Moor one took toivards Treiigarne wood, followed by the majority of the pack, thence to the west where he breathed his last-the run was a splendid one. The other took a different direction pursued by a 8 or 10 dogs and a few horsemen, and was killed near Plas- crwn. After despatching the first fos the deep mouthed notes of the gallant pack again resounded in Ramswood, and they went off at "full cry;" after a short run reynard was run into at Withybush. The sports of the day being ended, a large party sat down to dinner at the Castle Hotel. At nicrht a ball was held at the Assembly-room;, which was attended by most of the gentry mentioned in our last as being present at the first ball, in number 105. A spirit of conviviality pervaded the gay assembly, and dancing was kept up until an early hour on the following morning. The Bazaar in aid of defraying the expense incurred in restoring St. Mary's Church, held at the Shire-hall, was kept open on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday last, and realized fHO, which we arc glad to learn will more than discharge the existing debt. HAVERFORDWEST.—On Monday last a meeting of the Paving and Lighting Commissioners, was held for the purpose of consulting as to the course to be adopted for the removal of the houses in Castle-square, in the occupation of Mr. Phillips and Mr. Richards, in order to afford greater facility of communication with Bridge- street. The result of the meeting was the appointment of a deputation to wait on the council at their next meeting to negotiate for the purchase of the houses. On Wednesday last Robert Evans was committed for trial at the next Quarter Sessions for Haverfordwest, by Geo. Ll. Millard, Esq., mayor, charged with having sto- len 7s., from the person of Thomas John. II. M. steamer Vulcan, Lieut. Baker, commander, ar- rived at Fishguard, on Monday last, and is in the roads cruising.

MR. COOK AND HIS PATRONS. [From the Law Times.] I This affair, which we submitted to the Profession last week, has been taken up in the right spirit and the right quarter; and no labour or expense will be spared to sift it to the bottom, and to bring both the Sham Lawyer and his London patrons under the cognizance of the proper tribunal. We have received two letters on the subject, one from Mr. Williams, the postmaster, entirely and indig- nantly disclaiming the reference made to him by Cook in his letters the other from Mr. Cozens, of Haver- fordwest, also alluded to in the Letters, and who not only shows satisfactorily what was his connection with the Sham Lawyer, but who will be enabled to afford most important evidence in the inquiry about to be instituted. This letter contains matter that it would not be safe to publish, but we may state that it entirely exculpates the writer from the connection that Mr. Cook seemed to claim.

-U-U CARDIGANSHIRE. THE GREAT NORTH AND SOCTII WALES AND WORCESTER AND MANCHESTER AND MILFORD HA- VEei RAILWAYS.—In consequence of the unequivocal expression of public opinion at the public meetings held in Ncwcastle-Emlyn and Lampeter, the Directors of each of the two above named Companies deemed it ad- visable to adopt measures to secure all the advantages derivable from an amalgamation of their interests and designs. The Board of Directors of the Great North and South Wales Line accepted an invitation to meet the Milford Haven Company at Manchester on Tues- day week. The first proposition came from the Milford. Haven Company, and was to the effect that the other Company should give up to them all that portion of their Line which they wanted—take 10,000 shares in their Company, and be content with the branches to Cardigan and Aberystwith. The answer was by enquiry what amount of subscribed capital the Milford Haven line had secured, and if they would ensure being ready with their survey, &c. in time for the insuring session of Parliament. The answer was in effect that they were not ready with their money, aad could not be cer- tain of their surveys. The tables were then turned, and the North and South Wales Company offered First, to form one Company upon equal terms.—Second, to make it all as one Line from Liangerrig to Milford Haven, including branches (the South and North Wales Company giving up their Line northwards to meet the other Company's convenience in respect to estimates and capital required from them.)—Third, that as £ "2,000,000 WM req-airvd for the entiite work, the pro- posers would find the 111,100,000 already subscribed for by their s hareholders, if the Manchester and Milford Line would provide the remaining f700,000, upon which 10 per cent. was to be paid up in due time, and immediate notice of the amalgamation was to be given to the public. The Milford Haven Company agreed to this proposal, and their solicitor proposed and sent an agreement the same evening for the consideration of the Great North and South Wales Company. The next day the latter Company were prepared to sign it, but the Manchester Company then started new objections, re- quired time for consideration and conference with other Companies, and thus the matter at present remains. ABERYSTWITH PETTY SESSIONS.—DISSOLUTION OF PARTNERSHIP OF THE Glt]?AT BEGGING FIRM OF MORASSO, SON, AND IUOMPSON.—Magistrates present: David Edwards, Esq., mayor, John Evans, Esq., (ex-mayor,) Lewis Jones, and Thomas Jones, Esqrs., borough magistrates. On Friday last, three per- sons calling themselves Charles Morasso, Lazarus Morasso, and Robert Thompson, were brought up charged with going about begging under pretences that the first was a Protestant Clergyman, driven from the Waldenscs, in Piedmont, by the Roman Catholics on account of his religon, and imprisoned at Genoa. He is about 50 years of age, and is also, when convenient, a paralytic, which is of great service to him when begging but as paralysis is all ugly travelling com- panion, it is completely discarded when walking from town to town, particularly If he sniffs a policeman in the gale. The second member of the firm is Lazarus, a lad of 18. He calls himself the son of the aforesaid," and acts as secretary—writing the "missives," and delivering them. These are in French, and signed by Morasso le ftere, and "prinn,t au no:n do Dieu de vouhur bleu me honorer d'un charita.ile secours." Robert Thompson, the last member of this hopeful firm, is a canny Scotch- man, who pretends that his department is to look after the elder Morasso when lie chooses to be paralytic. The stock-in-trade of the concern, (over and above the shifting paralysis), consisted of divers and sundry petitions, letters, passports, religious tracts, (French) and, last not least, 10 solid sovereigns in gold. The firm was respectably clad, and the elder Morasso and "Sandy" had each of them a handsome watch on his person. There were several letters found on them, addressed to respectable inhabitants of Aberystwith, written of course, in French and that they were not delivered, must have been owing to the precipitate flight of the firm from Aberystwith, from their dislike to the prying inqui sitiveness of the police. They were appre- hended by rural police constable Robert Jones, near Llanrhystyd, from information communicated by police constable William Jones, of Aberystwith. This last proved that he saw the party begging at Aberystwith, and was on the point of apprehending them, where they stole a march upon him—the paralytic leading the van at a "slapping" pace; and the rural police constable swore that he had no appearance of paralysis when lie apprehended him, as he walked quick"—four miles an hour. The magistrates after a. lengthened and careful investigation, (and the prisoners having contradietcd themselves in many important points,) discharged Robert Thompson, and comm'itVcd the two other pri- soners to Cardigan for two months with hard labour; and directed that their maintenance while there, should be defrayed out of the £ i 0 found upon them. It appears that during their short stay at Aberystwith, these imposters had succeeded in gettiqg some money from several respectable individuals aid what was of more consequence to then;, they prevailed upon these charitable persons to put their signatures to their petitions. We shall consider that we have done the public a real ser- vice in-publishing the case if we can succeed in making those benevolent persons more careful in future as to what they attach their names to. For by putting their name to a begging petition, they attest their belief of the truth of the story; and the public in seeing their name, take it for granted that they would never think of endorsing a begging letter without having thoroughly examined info its truth. And it should be borne in mind that with the most charitable dispositions in the world, a careless signature of this kind is actually putting instruments in the hands of impostors for picking the pocket of the unwary, and at the same time while they are giving half a crown or 5s. to this foreign mountebank whilst he has tl 0 in his pocket, they are to that extent making themselves less able to relieve some poor neighbour whom they know to be in real distress. Tuesday last, a coroner's inquest was held at the Gogerddan Arms, before Dr. Richard Williams, coroner, and a res- pectable jury, (Mr. John Roberts, draper, foreman) to enquire into the cause of the death of Catherine Philipps, a fine young woman of twenty-one, and daughter of David PhíIipp, of Llcdrod, tailor. The facts of this mebncholy case are shortly these :—The deceased had been at Aberystwith hiring fair on Mon- day last, and was returning home early in rtie evening. While on her way homewards, (she had not gone much beyond the South Turnpike Gate), she was overtaken by two carts driving at a furious ratt; by the last of which she was run over and killed on the spot. Her head was disfigured in the most frightful manner, and her death may be said to have been iustantaneous, for she never afterwards spoke. Her body was carried to a little lodge belonging to Crigiau, on the road side, and Mr. William Evans, surgeon, from Aberystwith, was sent for and arrived-with all possible speed; bit life was completely extinct before his arrh al. The driver of the cart was secured, and was it found to belong to D. Lewi-, ofNant- gwynfynydd Issa, in the pa: ish of Llanarth it had two horses in it, and the owner was in the cart at the time, together with four or five persons coming from Aber- ystwith fair. The driver, Thomas J oncs, was his ser- vant, who was sitting OIl the fore-part of the cart with cord reins, having the two horses in hand, tandem fashion. Both the owner of the cart and his servant are in custody. After a lengthened and careful inves- tigation, the inquest was adjourned. The verdict shall be given next week. It is a favourable feature in the Welsh character that upwards of 200 of the neighbours of the poor girl, whose untimely death we have recorded, came a distance of 10 miles to assist, in carrying her remains to be deposited in the grave of her forefathers; and it was circulated that upwards of a thousand inha- bitants of the vicinage would accompany the corpse to the humble dwelling of her father. This would be about midnight, as the Coroner did not permit the body to be removed until eight o'clock on Tuesday night. CARDIGAN GRAMMAR SCIIIIOL.-Ofl Friday last,.the mayor, aldermen, and council of the borough of Cardi- gan, elected Mr. Richard Lee, Scholar of St. David's College, to the Mastership of the Cardigan Grammar School, void by the cession of the Rev. Evan Lewis.

G L A M O R G A N S III R E. SWANSEA.—We regret to announce that the accident reported' in our last which occurred to Mr. Michael Marks, has proved fatal, from exhaustion produced by loss of blood. The funeral of the deceased took place on Tuesday last, at the Jews' bu'ial ground, and was attended by a great number of the Hebrew class, as well as many respectable inhabitants of the towil the sin- gular ceremonial observed by the Hebrews on funereal occasions attracted a great number of spectators to witness the performance of the solemn rites. SWANSEA SOCIETY FOR ACQUIRING USEFUL KNOW- LEDGE.—On Friday evening last, an admirable lecture was delivered at the Theatre of the Royal Institution, in connexion with this society, by the Rev. D. Pughe, on Genius," the lecturer being repeatedly applauded. The usual discussion followed, in which M. Moggridge, Esq., (the President), the Rev. T. Dodd, the Rev. D. Pughe, and Messrs. Michael, Jenkins, Lewis and Yan- dell took part. The next lecture was announced to be delivered by Alr. John Jenkins, jeweller, on the method adopted to determine of a fout measure." ODD-FEI.LOWS' BALL.-A select ball and supper was gi\en on Tuesday night last, by the junior members of the several Odd-fellows' lodges at Swansea, at the mag- nificent lodge-room of the Bird-in-Hand. The brothers, on the occasion, appeared in full regalia, and the room was elegantly decorated; the affair, altogether, was exceedingly well got up. Dancing commenced shortly before ten o'clock, and was kept up with spirit till five in the morning Refreshments of the choicest kinds were supplied by Ir. Kembrev, the respected host; indeed, every thing was so conducted that entire satis- faction pervaded the assembly. NEATH.—On Monday and Tuesday evenings last, Mr. R. K. Philp delivered two lectures on temperance at the Town-hall, Neath. The Rev. J. S. Stone, B.A., took the chair. The meeting was very numerously attended, and Mr. Philp exhibited several diagrams, which gave great satisfaction to crowded audiences. NUATJI PETTY SESSIONS were held at the Town-hall, before F. Fredricks, H. Thomas, and H. Gv.yn. Esqrs. Margaret Fowler charged Mick Kenncsei/, with having assaulted her. The defendant made a rambling state- ment and said he only wished to give her satisfaction. Ordered to pay costs 10s. 6d. Elizabeth Arnold was charged with assaulting Maria Buttcrfield, wife of David Butterfield, joiner, Neath. The assault was proved on the evidence of the complainant, but defendant called a witness who swore that complainant was a fortune-tel- ler, consequently the case was dismissed. Mr. Har- greaves appeared for complainant. A person named Thomas applied to the bench for a summons against Capt. Joshua Morris, for refusing to give him his ticket and registry up. The summons was granted. MF.RTIIYK POLICE, MONDAY, Nov. 24.—Before T. W. Ilill, Esq.- A Pontstorehouse nymph of the pave, was charged by Ellas Rees, carpenter, with stealing from his person the sum of f3 on the Sunday preceding. From complainant's evidence it seems that he was coming from Pcnydarran, where he had been drinking a quart of beer, and when near the Cambrian public-house, two girls came up, one of whom put her hands about his neck, and said "Oh my dear." He then put his hand in his pocket, and discovered that 3 sovereigns which lie had felt there a few minutes before, were missing. lie could not say which of the girls took the money. Discharged for want of evidence. INQUEST.—On Monday last, an inquest was held at the Ivy Bush, before W. Davies, Esq., coroner, on view of the body of David, son of Mr. John Williams, tailor, aged 8 years, who was drowned by accidentally falling into the Glamorganshire canal, on the 22nd. Verdict, Accidentally drowned." The fortnightly meeting of the Merthyr Literary and Debating Society, was held on Thursday evening, the 20th inst., Mr. John Thomas, in the chair. The subject discussed was whether manufacturing or agricultural pursuits were most conducive to good morals.' Mr. John liees very ably supported the former, whilst Messrs. Shellard and Beynon, spoke very argumenta- tively for the latter proposition. A man named John Richards, a miner at Pendarran Works, sustained severe injuries, by a fall of rubbish upon him in one of the levels. However, hopes arc entertained of his recovery. NEWPORT, MONMOUTHSHIRE.—We arc told that there are 2 common turnips to be seen at the Coach and Horses, Castletown one measuring 47^ inches in cir- cumference, and the other 46-1. They are perfectly sound, and weigh about 231b. each. They were plucked indiscriminately, being the nearest to the path. The field is now in the possession of Mr. Jones, butcher. POTATOES.- -Two Hundred Pounds were offered on Wednesday last, by a gentleman living in Newport, for one hundred sacks of prime potatoes, to be delivered in March next. But the offer was refused by a farmer, who hopes to have mare than that quantity for seed.

D. R. PARRY, Commissioner. r. <H' i ,u>Hrc- d1! MANCHESTER AND MILFORD HAVEX RAILWAY. IN pursuance of Resolutions passed at a Meeting of the JL Provisional Directors, held at the office of the Com- pany, No. Norfolk Street, Manchester, on the 18th instant, the APPLICANTS I-OK. SHAKES arc informed, that the extraordinary difficulty of procuring the Services of a sufficient number of competent assistants, has rendered it impossible to complete the Plans and Sections before the 30th inst., in a manner sufficiently accurate to be respectful to Parliament and creditable to the Company. Under these circumstances, the Directors consider that it would be most injudicious, and inconsistent with a proper sense of public duty, to press forward operations with a view of applying to the Legislature in the ap- proaching Session, and they have decided that the in- tended application to Parliament shall not be made in the coming, but in the next subsequent Session. The Directors have been gratified to find that the un- dertaking receives the warm support of the landowners on the Line, and of all others locally interested. The Directors are actively engaged in negoeiations with all the Railway Companies in any way conncctcd with the line of country between Manchester and Milford Haven, and they have every assurance of the ultimate support and co-operation of some of the most powerful existing Railway Companies, in carrying out the measure in a manner so worthy of so great, a national undertaking. The great encouragement derived from these circum- stances, and the conviction of the growing strength of the project in the public estimation, has determined the Directors to pursue with steadiness their original object of completing a line of Railway upon which the working and cost of transit between Manchester and Milford Haven shall be so regulated as to identify the interests of the Company with the interests of the Merchants, Manu- facturers, and Shipowners from whom the principal traffic will he derived. The Shares of this Company will therefore be allotted immediately, and a call of two shillings and sixpctice made in the first instance, and the remainder of the de- posit will not be calltd for until such time as the )J11.- naging Committee may deem necessary to prepare for the arl)1ication to Parliament in the 8essÏ0n after next.
