The manufacture of bread on an extensive scale by machinery has been so uniformly successful that it is & matter of surprise that no public company has been estab. lished in Liverpool for that purpose, securing to conau- mers (particularly the poor) an unadulterated article at a moderate price, In London, Birmingham, Dublin, Glasgow, Bristol, and other place, bread companies have been formed with great success. The Birmingham old Union Bread and Flour Company has paid dividends at the rate of 50 per cent, per annum, and the shares are now selling at a? premium of 450 per cent, ?'n?reT c £ S5& Bakery in Glasgow is now making from 600 to 8W sacks of flour weekly into bread. It was commenced with two ovens, and is now profitably carried on with forty ovens in daily use. In London the existing bread companies are ■» first-class increasing business, and in Dublin also the large established bakeries are gradually absorbing the trade. ? manufacture of bread by macWne^ commends itself to the public by. its superior cleanliness and purity whilst the economy in labour, and saving of waste in materials, not only insure a better quality, but enable it to be produced at a less cost. Arrangements have been made for the purchase, by the Company. upon favourable terms, of the Stanhope Mills Bread and Biscuit Manufactory, situate in one of the best localities in Liverpool, and having already nine shops in different parts of the town. Five-eights of the purchase ere will be taken by the vendor in ???pa.d. The concern is now being worked at a profit of 25 per cent, on the capital employed. on the Edward S. Samuell, proprietor of the above business, has consented to act as managing director, and his services have been secured upon terms dependent in a great measure upon the profits of the company. The works acquired for the company comprise also machinery specially erected for the manufaeture of plain and fancy biscuits, in which an extensive business has been carried on and a good connection formed. THe home and foreign trade in this branch is of un- limited extent, one firm alone in this country employing upwards of 1,000 hands. It is proposed with the assistance of increased capital, not only to extend the existing business but also to add the manufacture of ship bread; with the large and in- creasing trade of the port, this will form L very profitable branch of the business of the company. It is an admitted fact that the ship bread business, although  con- fined to private enterprise, i< one of the most profitable trades in Liverpool, 41 The9 preliminary expense. will be limited to actual necessary eharges and diabursementa.

POLICE PERSECUTION AT LLANDUDNO.

POLICE PERSECUTION AT LLANDUDNO. To the Editor of the North Wales Chronicle. Sir,- Your journal of Saturday next will most likely contain under the head Conway" a police caae, where the subscriber was fined 20a. and 10s. costs, for his horses straying from the field into the streets of Llan- dudno. A few weeks back he was fined 5s. and 10s. costs for a similar offence, the pony having bolted from the stable, and being unable to find it in the dark nigut it was the next morning seen by the son of Mr. Sergeant Jones, and by the pair driven home and proceedings taken against me. Now, if this Sergeant Jones did his business impartially and tarred his friends and foes with the same brush, I should not complain; but when, as I stated before the Magistrates and am prepared to prove, he drives, when found straying, one man's horses, Mr. Edward Owens, butcher, back into the field and shuts the gate, while he summonses me and gets me fined, I think it is quite time a little public exposure should awaken him to a sense of his duty. In this case the fences of the field had been repaired a day or two pre- viously; at twelve o'clock at night, long after I and my family had gone to bed, the horses were seen to be in the tield and the gate closed, but afterwards they were brought to my house by Sergeant Jones with the result stated above. Mr. Sergeant Jones has his likes and dislikes, and where the evil eye is placed he follows its guidance with particular vigour. 1 am under his ban, and as the following details of his persecution will shew, have been so for some long time past:— Firstly,—About twelve months ago a tenant of mine, a town porter named Miller, stated publicly he would before he slept knock holes through me." In a state of mad drunkenness he followed me, with his coat off prepared to-fight, from M ostyn-street to my own house, threatening to annihilate me all the time. In my own yard, in the presence of my wife and a female friend, he repeated these abusive threats, and there goaded to the act I administered such a chastisement as made him glad to beat a retreat. For this, under the accusation of being drunk, though as sober at the time as the pen I am writing with, I was summoned by Mr. Sergeant Jones, and after four hearings at Conway was fined in the mitigated penalty of Is. and 24s. costs; while the cause of the mischief, though notoriously drunk and abusive in the public street, was not interfered with at all. Secondly,—Two years ago one of my sons left my service at the instigation of Mr. Sergeant Jones, and went to drive a car for a friend of his. During that time lie was summoned and fined at Conway for "plying for hire" in the streets of Lland udno. Part of the fine was paid at the time, and though he remained in the town for many months afterwards no attempt was made to enforce the payment of the balance. Returning, however, a few weeks back to my employment, he was pounced upon by Air. Sergeant Jones, locked up in .durance vile," and not even allowed to communicate with his friends; and but for the kindness of a neigh- bour who saw him in charge of Mr. Sergeant Jones, and told his mother, he might have remained in the lock- up" for a long time. At the time of the above convic- tion the son of John Davies, Gatehouse (and hereby hangs the comparison), was tined for the like offence, and paid no part of it. Subsequently he was pounced upon by Mr. Sergeant Jones and incarcerated in the Sergeant's kitchen, but not paying the money he was let at liberty, and is still at liberty and the tine unpaid. Such is police justice at Llandudno. The son of a squatter" is pounced upon and his father forced to pay a tine inflicted when out of his employment and in opposition to his wishes; but the son of a native, though equally able to pay, is let off scot free. Thirdly,—For driving a light pony chaise along the parapet one night in Mostyn-street, where scores had driven before and have since, I was summoned and tined 68. and costs. Over this very parapet hundreds of tons of building materials have been carted during the past year and no notice taken. Daily in the presence of Mr. Sergeant Jones heavy carts and vehicles of all kinds make a short cut to Maddock-streot, though there is no right of way, across this very parapet, and it is all right; but I will guarantee if Mr. Sergeant Jones saw one of my carriages go across, I should be summoned within the week. Such is the justice meted out to Englishmen by Mr. Sergeant Jones at Llandudno. Natives may do as they please, even to threatening the lives of a wife and the whole household, as was recently the case in the presence of Mr. Sergeant Jones by the mad landlord of a certain tavern in Mostyn-street; but if an English- man raises the ire of Mr. Sergeant Jones he is either met with the Sergeant's favourite garotting chuck" in the gullet, which be will feel for weeks, if not for life, or he is summoned to Conway. This is liberty of the subject (English) at Llandudno I I lived in Liverpool 2i years, and waa never interfered with by the police; but here, I, nor those belonging to me, cannot move, nor speak, nor think aloud, without being subject to the machinations of Mr. Sergeant Jones. Hoping the day of retributior is at hand, and apologising for trespassing so far upon your space, I bee to remain, air, Your very obedient servant, ROBERT WELSH. I Maddock-gtreet, Llandudno, Feb, 3, 186S.

I NEWS OF THE WEEK. The Court remains at Osborne. Prince Lei- ningen arrived there on Saturday, and remained there on a visit to the Queen. Mr. Gladstone ar- rived on Monday, and had the honour of dining with her Majesty. Prince Alfred, we learn, is now at Berlin, on a visit to the Crown Prince of Prussia. His Royal Highness leaves on Monday. Parliament meets on Tuesday. The address in the Lords, in reply to the Queen's Speech, will be moved by the Duke of Cleveland, and seconded by the Earl of Charlemont. In the Commons it will be moved by Sir Hed worth Williamson, M. P. for North Durham, and seconded by Mr. Han- bury Tracey, M.P. for the Montgomeryshire Boroughs. Mr. Massey, M.P., and Chairman of the Com- mittee of Ways and Means, is appointed Finan- cial Minister for India, vice Sir C. Trevelyan, who returns home on account of ill health. The number of railway accidents that have re- cently occurred, have attracted the attention of her Majesty, who has addressed a circular to the Directors of the more important lines, urging the necessity of greater caution taken. It is not for herself, her Majesty says, that she interferes, as she knows that extra precautions are always taken whenever she travels but she requires that the same care should be extended to her family, the members of her household, and the public gene- rally. A sad accident happened in Horseferry Street, Westminster, on the evening of the 26th ult. The Roman Catholic Chapel there is in debt, and the Priests got up a lottery to raise money to reduce it. The prizes were to be distributed that night, and a great many persons were collected in the school- room. During the proceedings the flooring gave way, and many men, women, and children, were injured. Between 20 and 30 were taken to the Westminster Hospital, where the schoolmistress died the next day. On Monday night the Surrey Theatre, Black- friar's Road, Southwark, was destroyed by fire. It was discovered in the roof just before the close of the performance. Providentially the audience all got out uninjured, except a few bruises, but all in the theatre was destroyed. The performers lost dresses and properties, and Messrs. Shepherd and Anderson, the lessees and managers, lose about £ 10,000. After an unusual delay, and many rumours, Mr. O'Hagan, the Irish Attorney-General, was, on the 24th ult., appointed to succeed the late Mr. Justice Ball. Mr. Lawson, the Solicitor-General, succeeds Mr. O'Hagan as Attorney-General; Mr. Sergeant Sullivan is the new Solicit-or-General Sir Colman O'Loghlin, M. P., takes the Sergeant's coif, and Mr. Chailes Barry, Q.C., takes his place as law-adviser to the government. The last-named gentleman is a Protestant, but all the others are Roman Catholic. Letters from Odessa, received at Trieste, on Friday, state that 120,000 Russians are concen- trated between the Dnieper and Dniester, and that Russian agents are enlisting sailors in the Greek Archipelago. The King of Prussia, on the 22th ult., replied to the address from the Upper House, with which he is much gratified. His Majesty says, his speech from the throne made advances to the rep- resentatives, in order that they should also make advances to him. He is conscientiously striving to do everything compatible with the welfare of the country, alld trusts that the misunderstand- ing which exists will soon disappear. There ap- pe<\r to be no approach to an understanding between the Government and the Deputies. The organization of the army, which the King insists upon retaining, uncontrolled, in his own hands, is the great point of difference. On the 26th ult. a deputation of the inhabi- tants of Trieste had an interview with the Gover- nor on the subject of the late dismissal of Muni- cipal Council. The Governor expressed his con- viction that the majority of the members were loyal, and his belief that at the approaching elec- tion members hostile to the Government would be excluded. The Vienna New Free Press, of the 27th ult., states, that a decree, convoking the Hungarian Diet, will be issued on the 15th of April, and that the Diet will meet on the 15th of May. In the Reichsrath there is a difference be- tween the finance committee of the Lower House and the Government. The latter is willing to conseut to reductions in the expenditure, but demand that they shall waive the right to distri- bute the funds voted indiscriminately amongst the different branches of the public service, and that the budget for 1866 shall be voted during the present session. On the 27th the committee refused to accept these conditions, unless the amount of the reductions was pointed out. It has been rumoured that the French Govern- ment was about to send 600 Spabis to Tunis. The Cnnmutiomlel contradicts the report, and says, that the calm and disinterested attitude of France during the disturbances in that country ought to prevent cwdence being given to unfounded rumours calculated to excite disquietude. M. Thouvenal, a relation of the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, died on Sunday. It was, at first, reported and believed that it was the ex-minister himself. The French news is still devoid of in- terest, except as relates to the Encyclical. The episcopal protests against the government policy are about 40 in number. It is expected that they will be made the subject of an Imperial Manifesto. Letters received at Marseilles, from Rome, on the 28th ult., state, that the Count de Lartiges, the French Ambassador at the Vatican, had pre- sented a note to Cardinal Antonelli, expressing deep regret that the Pope was not willing to treat with Italy, and adding, that France, after having exhausted every means of concilliation, now de- clined to prolong the negotiations, and won't execute the conventions. The ConstittUiunnel of Tuesday, savs that no such letter exists.—On Monday, the newly appointed Spanish minister, Senor Pachero, presented his credentials to the Pope. On the evenings of the 23rd and 24th ult., de- monstrations were made at Turin in honour of certain deputies and journalists of the reactionary party. No disturbance took place. The Turin papers of Friday, the 27th ult., state that the military tribunals have determined upon proceed- ing against fifty of the soldiers who were on duty during the disturbances of September—twenty being charged with having exceeded the means of legal defence, and the others with having used their arms unnecessarily.—On the 28th the Syndic issued a manifesto, urging the people to obey the laws. There was, however, another demonstration before the royal palace on Monday evening, when several arrests took place. The Spanish minister of the colonies estimates the expense of the St. Domingo war at 200,000,000 of reals, and says it has occasioned a deficit of 100,000,000 in the revenue of Cuba. In the Senate on the 26th ult., Marshall O'Donnell said, the evacuation of that island was an accomplished fact; but added, if he had commanded the troops there he would have put down the rebellion m three months. On Monday, the Senate adopted the address to the throne by 102 to 58 votes. There had been rumours at Paris of a new com- mercial treaty being negociated between Spain and France the Madrid Epoca of the 30th contra- dicts them. Advices from Lisbon of the 23rd ult. state that the Council of State had directed that the Bishops should not publish the Pope's Encyclical, except that part which relates to the Jubilee. The winter has been one of the most severe on record in Portugal. The people of Lisbon complain of the increase of rents and taxes the prices of meat have also advanced 30 per cent. On the 26th ult., the address of the Senate of the Danubian Principalities was presented to Prince Couza, whose reply was received with enthusiasm.—The deputies were on that day discussing the bill on the organization of the superior clergy. The Cape mail has arrived, with dates from Cape Town to the 23rd day of December. At that date affairs on the frontier were peaceable, and it was believed no trouble need be anticipated from the free states. Mosbeth had announced his intention of abiding by the decision of the Governor, with respect to the boundary of his territory, and had given orders to evacuate the disputed lands. The Basutos were retiring, and the president of the free states had gone to Win- burg, with a considerable force of burghers but rather as a corps of observation than with hostile intentions. The West India mail has arrived, with advices from the 9th to the 14th of January. There is no political news of interest from any of the islands; but the accounts of the crops is very favourable. There is news from Valparaiso to the 14th, and from Callao to the 28th of December. It only relates to the Spanish-Peruvian question. The Peruvian admiral had informed the Govern- ment, that, after the destruction of the Spanish admiral's ship, their force was unable to cope with the enemy; and the Spaniards had been subse- quently reinforced. -A Peruvian envoy had waited upon the Spanish admiral, to tell him the quarrel would be. made a South American one, informa- tion which that officer received very coolly." The Etna brought advices from New York to the 14th Jan., and there are subsequent news up to the 17tb. The Federal Senate had, the previous day, passed a resolution to give twelve months' notice of the termination of the reciprocity treaty with Canada, which the House of Representatives adopted on the 16th, and the President has ap- proved of it. The notice to England, terminating the treaty for limiting the force on the lakes, is also confirmed by both houses. It was reported at New York that the Committee of Ways and Means, of the House of Representatives, disap- proved of Mr. Fessenden's plan for raising 200, 000,000 dollars that minister had been elected senator for Maine.—There had been no engage- ments between the armies since the last arrivals. Sherman was moving it was reported to the south, intending to take Charleston in the rear, support- ed by Admiral Farragut's fleet in the bar, in front. In other quarters it was asserted that he was going to Branchville. Hood was fortifying Corinth, and repairing the Mobile and Ohio railroad. His losses at Nashville were officially reported to be a few men, and 50 guns. General Thomas had moved towards Eastport, where supplies were concentrated.—General Butler has published a defence of his conduct at Wilmington. He says the real cause of the disaster was the want of timely co-operation on the part of Admiral Porter; and that he has been sacrificed because he would not lead his men to butchery. A second expedi- tion failed against Wilmington on the 8th ult. and on the 15th Fort Fisher was captured, by the united assault of troops and Porter's gunboats the garrison of 2,500 men, and 72 guns being captured. The Federal loss was heavy. Port Wilmington is said to be now effectually blockaded. -it was lumoured that an important peace and, union movement, headed by the governor, was taking place in Georgia. There were other rumours of peace negociations between North and South but as the former makes "union," and the latter "independence" indispensable, there was no prospect of terms being come to. Resolutions in favour of peace have been rejected by the House of Representatives, and by the Virginia House of Delegates.—The Missouri State Convention had adopted an ordinance for the immediate and un- conditional abolition of slavery. The Calcutta and China mails bring dates from Yokohama (Japan) of Dec. 26th, Hong Kong Dec. 15, Singapore Dec. '22, Calcutta Dec. 23, and Madras Dec. 27. The news from India and China had been anticipated, or nearly so the intelligence subsequent to that previously received is void of interest.—From Yokohama we have the details of the murder of Major George Walter Baldwin, and Lieut. Robert Nicholas Bird, of the 2nd battalion of Her Majesty's 20th regiment— not the 23rd, as stated by the telegram whiall first announced the melancholy event. -They went on an excursion to Kumakada and Daibooth, on the 23rd, and were found at night lying on the road, dreadfully beaten and wounded, one being qiiite dead, the other died a slrort time after the bodies were found. Up to the last accounts no clue whatever had been obtained to the assassins. There are advices from Suez to the 16th of Jan. They stated that Captain Trisaulf was about to start on a mission to the Imaum of Muscat, whose brother was said to be desirous of ceding Zau Zevar to England. The great naval powers, under tt l powers, under whose protection Zan Zevar is placed, are urging the Imaum to oppose the cession.

FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT. I LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING. We have now the marriage of the Princess Heleni on the tapis. Last year it was reported, that her Royal Highness was engaged to the hereditary Grand Duke of Saxe Weimar. That report remained neither confirmed nor contradicted, till the 21st of last month, when we were told, in a semi-official paper, that it was un- founded. Since then, letters have been received from Coburg, which state, that, in May, Queen Victoria, King Leopold of Belgium, and »U the royal fftmly of England, will arrive at that city; and that then the W trothal is to take place.-If this ÍII correct, we shall loon be made aware of the fact. Charles Alexander, the present Grand Duke of Saxe- Weimer, is only 46 years of age, being born on the 24th of June, 1818. He married the Princess Sophie, of the Netherlands; and their eldest child and only son,— Prince Charles Augustus, was born on the 31st of July, 1844: he is, therefore, nearly two years older than the Princess Helena, who first saw the light on the 25th of May, 1846. His territory, if he lives to inherit it, will be very small; several English counties have a larger area; and still mom, have a more numerous population. The Grand Duke is said to have a large private fortune; part of which was the dowry of his wife. His civil list is 280,000 thalers (about 941,000) per annum, being nearly one-sixth of the revenues of the Grand Duchy. The Princess Mary of Cambridge (of whose marriage not a word is now spoken) will return to England next week. One of the Duke of Cambridge's equerries has left town for the continent, te escoit her royal highness home. She will take up her residence, for the preeent, in the apartments of the Duchess of Cambridge, in the Ambassadors' Court, St. James's Palace. Mr. Justice Williams has resigned his seat on the Bench of the Court of Common Pleas. He had selected the Norfolk Circuit; but found he was inadequate to undertake the duties; and he has, therefore, sent in his resignation. Viscount Amberley, Lord Russell's son, has come out" as a Reformer. He made a rather violent reform speech at Leeds on Tuesday; and it is understood he is to be the second Liberal candidate for the representation of that borough. Two Industrial Exhibitions" were opened in the metropolis yesterday: "the South London," at the Lambeth Baths, Westminster Road; and "the Opera. tive Coachmakers," at the Coathmaker's Hall, Noble- street, Foster-lane, Cheapside. There are 630 exhibitors at the former; not so many in the latter, but the trade is well represented. The exhibitors at Lambeth com- prise workmen of almost all classes; and there is a great variety of objects in the specimens of art and ingenuity they have contributed. The Coachmakers' display is chiefly connected with their own trade. At both, the skill and industry of the workmen is most ably display- ed and-we may take pride at this proof of the talents of our countrymen. The Bishop of Winchester presided, and opened the Lambeth Exhibition. The Marquis of Lansdowne delivered the Inaugural Address at the. Coachmakers. The Vienna papers of yesterday, publish an analysie of the Prussian reply to the last note of Austria on the Duckies. Prussia lays great stress upon its wish to come to an understanding with Austria; and intends to wait for the opinion of the legal advisers- of the Crown, before adopting any decision concerning the interests of the Duchies and the succession quos- tion. At Berlin, it was announced, yesterday, that the biU regulating the strength of the army, in time of peace, and the length of military service, has been submitted to the King, by the ministry, and approved. Next week it is to be brought forward in the Chamber of Deputies. This is an unexpected concession on the part of the King; who, had professed, that he would not compromise" his rights on the military question. The French papers are still taken up with the Ency- clical Letter, which, as appears from those journals and letters from Rome, has created quite a division amongst the Roman Catholics themselves. In France, the Ency. clical and the Episcopal letters will soon come before the Council. Notwithstanding the denial of the Con- stitutionnel, it is believed in Paris, that a note has been sent to the Vatican on this question. There is important news from Mexico this week. When at Rome, the Emperor Maximilian opened nego- ciations with the Pope on the reform in the Empire, which would involve arrangements with respect to Church property; and he expected the Nuncio would be properly instructed and authorised on the subject. But to the great surprise of the Emperor, that func- tionary declared he had no instructions. The Emperor, therefore, on the 27th of December, issued a decree, es- tablishing religious toleration, and the nationalisation of Church property. It was said that the Nuncio and the Archbishop would leave Mexico, The conduct of the- Emperor had excited great popular enthusiasm. The Canadian Parliament was opened at Quebec on the 19th ult. The Governor-General announced that a a bill would be presented to arm the executive with further powers to deal with political refugees who abused the right of asylum and he spoke,, hopefully, of the- coufederation scheme. An arrival from New York brings intelligence to the- 20th ult. It is still unfavourable to the Confederates. The Federals had captured the Pocotaligo Bridge, on the Charleston and Savannah Railway; the Confede- rates having retired, to Asheroo. also on the railway, where it was expeeted they would make a stand.—The Federals were also prosecuting their designs on Wilming- ton; which if not captured would be effectually block- aded.—The Confederate General Hardee, with 20,000 men, was reported to be in a good position, 20 miles above Hardeeville, on the Savannah river.—The Federal monitor Patapseo, had been destroyed by torpedoes off Charleston.-TL e Richmond papers are very severe on President Davis; charging many of the ills that had be. fallen the Confederates to his mismanagement. -The Tennessee State Convention had passed a resolution- abolishing slavery.—It was reported that a Federal squadron, under Admiral Goldsborough, would te sent to Europe.
