TO CORRESPONDENTS. Mil* E-1'- Williams requests us to state that she did r.ot decline the assistance of the Bangor Choir at the Jute Concert. We give het the benefit oC lh. contiadiction. W., of course, cannot tell the motives of the Committee of the North Wales Lunatic Asylum, in advertising for Tenders ill three Radical papers, two of which f.r pwhU.sh«»d < ut of the country, and are seldom keen in it, and one Radical p.iper published in the country, but tabooed, in 'eccnt society, for it$ bad manners, to the e:ulusinn of th,? North WaJt'Chl'o it!e," mhose eireu ation is mot respectable Rnd ?-xien, 11"' we lupoøe they ?,?ow what il?ey are doing, and therefore decline remark upon this seeming inconsistency; further than that, we fancy we have d,?,i? the Ulsu:u:ion some ser? ice in our time, which ought to have had a more grateful return.
- THE COALITIOX.
THE COALITIOX. "England does not like coalitions," said Ifr. Dis- raeli in 18o3; and she has goad reason to dislike them, not to go hack any further, bitterly, in the loss of lire the misery which was carried to the do- mestic hearth, in thousands of families, and the vast expenditure, which was occasioned, whose ef- fects we are yet feeling, and must do for some years to come-did we experience the results of that lt un- natural combination," which expelled Lord Derby from office in 18.32. We have now another of those combinations. After weeks spent in negociations carried on by the underlings of the various parties, -and after later consultations between the princi- pals,-the leaders of the Palmerston and Kussell Whigs, of the Peelites, and of the Manchester men," have coalesced; "mutual concessi ons" having been made, we are told by the Star,' to "effect the coalition of politicians so long opposed as Lord Pal- merston and Mr. Bright." The result of this truly "unniltural" junction was, that, on Friday night, the following circular was sent to all the Liberal mem- bers of Parliament: A meeting of the Liberal irembers will be held at Willis's Rooms, Kinif-strei't, St. James's, on Monday, June 6th, at 2 o'clock, at which you an; respectfully re qesteù to attend. Palmerston. John Ktissell. Hartinffton. T. During. Sidney Herbert. Edward Ulliee. T. Milner Gibson. T. E. Headlam. Geo. Hynir. &c., &c., &e. There was a numerous meeting; some statements saying from 2o0 to 260—and others, more precise, that 2H-members were present; and the result of some unmeaning,—utterly unmeaning, as far as any pledges for future measures, or policy went,— ipeeches by Lord Palmerston, Lord John Russell, Mr. Bright, Mr. Sidney Herbert, Mr. li. Jimes, Ir. Coningham, Mr. John Locke, and Mr. E. Ellice, was, the adoption of a resolution, that an amendment should be proposed to the address, which, following the precedent of Sir Robert Peel's, in 1811, would state, that the House considered it essential that Government should possess the confidence of Par- liament, and that the House deems it its duty to say, that such confidence is not reposed in the present advisers of the Crown." From this resolution, Mr. Roebuck, Mr. Horsman, and Nir. W. Lindsay, were the only dissentients,—so say the Liberal papers. Those papers have been confidently anticipating the defeat of the Government, and a change of Ministry. The new Cabinet will contain Lord Palmerston and Lord John Itussell who have made up their quarrel. If Lord Palmerston should be the Minister," said Lord John Russell on Monday evening, "1 will cor- dially co-operate with him and I am at liberty to say that, if I am myself the Minister, Lord Palmer- ston will co-operate with me." Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright will also have offices offered them, but whether they will accept them or not, the organ of their party, the I Morning Star,' "will not pretend to say." It affirms, however, that their opinions will certainly be represented in the Cabinet that may succeed Lord Derby's. For it is the first and fun- damental article of the treaty ratified on Monday, by the approval of nearly the whole body of Li- beral M.P.'s, that the Ministry of the future shall contain a fair representation of the independent ele- ment." So the Ministry,—if the amendment is car- tied,—will, like that of Lord Aberdeen, he made up of the heterogeneous elements that compose the op- position; and we are especially told, that the men who are faithful to the principle of non-intervention, will take care that it is impossible that Lord Pal- merston "should again exercise an irresponsible and unchecked power in the English Foreign Office." Thus proving, that they have no confidence in the member for Tiverton,—and, of course, that lie has not the confidence of Parliament, for. if they stand aloof, he will be in a minority of from 40 to oO totes, -at the very time, they are supporting a resolution declaring that it is essential that Government should uossess that confidence, or cease to govern. The sole reason put forward by the Whigs at Monday's meeting, for coming to a collision with the Government was, that it is in a minority in the house. That remains to be proved. The resolution of Lord Jolm Russell, in March last, was carried by a majority of 39 votes—after the most urgent means had been taken to promise the attendance of the Li- beral members. Now, the lowest estimate of the gains of Government gives Earl Derby's supporters 20 seats,-that would he equal to 40 votes, neutral- izing the majority against them. But it is quite certain, that they have obtained 30 seats, which would give them a majority of 21.-the men who would not vote in March remaining quiescent in May. But. allowing that some of them may he in- duced, on this occasion, to attend, and say" aye," to the amendment, ministers calculate upon a majority of 6; whilst the oppo ition say, they shall carry their amendment by 12. Will such an insignificant mea- guring-cast majority justify a chatiae of Goi-ernmerit at the present moment ? We think not. Whilst the Whigs object to the continuance of the Conservatives in Downing-street, because they have not the confidence of the House,—the "independ- ents profess that it is their sympathy with Austria, and their desire to join in the war on ific side of that power, as soon as an opportunity offers, which make them oppose Lord Derby. If," said Mr. Bright, on Monday, "I would feel confident that the present Government could and would preserve neutrality, I i would, for the moment, forget every other question and would refuse to take any step which should drive thi m from oflice." The Government i. pledged to neutrality. The Conservatives have never shewn that desire to interfere with foreign countries, which has been such a marked characteristic of Lord Pal- merston's policy. Mr. Bright avows, that what Lord Palmerston said, on Monday, on the subject of peace, was not satisfactory to him; and his organ, on Tues- day, declared its belief, that his Lordship had sym- pathies and ideas perilolls alike to the freedom of Europe." Whilst this is the case with Lord Pal- merston, there is no reanoii- Ilot the slightest pre- tence-for questioning Lord Derby's honour and truth. He has never said one thing and done an- other; but has al ways been remarkable for his open straightforward sincerity. There is no doubt, that he will, if it be possible, preserve peace yet Mr. Bright, contrary to his emphatic declaration on Monday, has taken steps to drive him from office. After this,—who can place any dependence upon the word, or the pledge either, of John Bright?
THE DEBATE ON THE ADDRESS
THE DEBATE ON THE ADDRESS Commenced and finished, in the Lords, on Tuesday evening, as there the opposition did not dare to ven- ture upon an amendment. One was moved in the Commons; and, certainly, there was no reason to complain of the way in which the Marquis of Nar- tington, who made the motion, performed the task allotted to him. But he really said nothing to sa- tisfy the course which the" reconciled factions" had resolved upon. It was chiefly because some of its measures-its India Bill and Reform Bill-faded in the last House of Commons, that he grounded his reason for asking the present House to declare that it had no confidence in the Government. But, as Mr. Disraeli remarked, their failure in the late House, where they had a decided majority against them, is a reason why the new Parliament should give ll1l1sters a fair and constitutional trial. How- ever, he shrank not from the ordeal. lIe thought the question of conifdence one which ought to be decided, and was ready to go to a division that even- ing. This, however, did not suit Lord Palmerston, and the debate was adjourned. The Earl of Derby in one House, and :\11-. Dis- raeli in the other, gave a positive denial to all the rumours and assertions rchtive to the alleged com- pact with the Roman Catholics, and the vast expen- diture of money, to influence the late elections. Neither the noble Earl nor the Chancellor of the Eichequ r ever delivered better speeches. They completely a .tablished the case of the Government, and demolished that of their opponents; and Mr. Disraeli applied the aryumentum (id hominelll most happily, shewing that the opponents of the Govern- ment had themselves taken courses, which they would not accord to the linistry. Thus Lord John Russell had failed in two Reform Bills, yet he expected to be allowed to bring in a third. And though he repro- bated Government by minorities, he was member of a Cabinet which ruled for two years, when in a mi- nority,—that of Lon] Ielhourne, He also pointed out the noble Lord and Mr. Sidney Herbert as two of the eminent statesmen who were to form the strong Government, before whose claims and abili- ties the present was to he palell and extinguished. "Well," said the right honourable gentleman, we have had experience of both these." We know how the noble lord conducts negociations, we know how the right hon. gentleman conducts war. You say we have failed in our negociations, and that we cannot be trusted with the prospect of a possible war. Well, the noble lord and the .right lion, gentleman won't help very much. The Mar- quis of liartington described the Opposition as re- presenting fully and exactly, the thoughts and feel-j ings of all educated English a remark which afforded Ili-. Disraeli an opportunity for some of his happiest hits. But the speech was not a mere attack upon opponents; it was an able and lucid defence of the Government; and we should like to see a copy in the hands of every man in Engtand,convinced, that it would have the effect of greatly augmenting and strengthening the Conservative feeling through- out the country.
I THE CORONERS' COURTS. I
THE CORONERS' COURTS. There are few offices in Britain more ancient than that otCoroner,and there are few,-if exercised by men of competent legal knowledge,—of more impor- tance, or from the exercise of which the public might derive more essential service- The origin of the office may be traced to Alfred and the Coroners' Court has continued, fro'n that time, to be one of our national utitutious. The name, Coroner, is, according to Lord Coke, to be derived "a corona," because he is an officer of the crown. The Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, is, by virtue of his office, the supreme Coroner of all England, and may, if he pleases, hold inquests in any part of the kingdom. The Master of the Crown office, in the same court, is also styled Coroner or Attorney for the Queeu;" and attends to all pleas of the Crown in that court, But it is the dis trict Coroner who is adverted to, when the Coroner's Court," or The office of Coroner," is spoken of; and it is with that office the people are most. intimately con- nected. The cases of Pnliner, and others, which have occurred during the last few years,-together with continued disputes between the Magistrates and the Coroners, as to the limits of the legitiruate authority of each—have attracted a portion of the public attention to the subject of some anom dies connected with the ad- ministration of the Coroner's duties and, in some quarters a desire has been expressed for a change in the practical exercise of that officer's authority. This state of things has induced Mr. J. Dempsy, a gentleman con- nected with the metropolitan press, to enter into an investijation of the duties of the Coroner, and the prac- tical effect of the present system, the result of which has been the publication of a pamphlet, entitled Tun CORONER'S COURT, ITS USES AND ABusFs WITH SUGGESTIONS FOR REFORM," a copy of which we have now belore us. The object of Mr. Dempsy is to give the Coroner more extensive and better detined powers, and to make that office independent of the Magistrates. He would give all persons upon the parliamentary register votes in the election of a Coroner; would pay that officer by a fixed salary, instead of fees would prevent stipendi- ary Magistrates and the police from interfe'ring with the discharge of his important duties would extend the inquiries before him from caes of suicide, sudden death, or evident murders, to every case, where the cause of death is unknown would appoint fixed courts, where Coroner's inquests should be held; would, also, make the Coroner's Court the chief Sanitary Court, and the Coroner the chief sanitary officer in the district; and would, in various ways, increase the dignity of the office. Alr. Dempsy has drawn up a bill embodying these changes, for which he seeks to obtain the sanc- tion of the legislature; and the whole subject is,—as we lealn from the preface to the 2nd edition of the pam- phlet, addressed to Lord Brougham,—under the consi- deration of the Law Amendment Society, which learn- ed body appears to favour, to some extent, at least, :\11-. I h'mp,y'. views. We cannot go with Mr. D.'mpsy to the full extent of those views, which, we think, would make the exercise of the office of Coroner at least as vexatious as it is useful. But the adoption of some of them would be an improvement rn tho present system, provided provis- sion was made that only properly qualified persons should be elected t,) the office of Coroner. No peculiar qualification is now required, and any person may be elected Coroner who can ohtain the ear of the electors, We know some instances in which persons wholly in- adequate to perform the duties have been chosen Co- roners an,1 we have seen the office, more than once, where the gift has been in private patronage, and not in popular election, mafle the reward ot potittcat ser- vices, even where the choice is by vote, not merits, but generally the longest purse wins. The Coroner who has the office of a judge, and who presides over a jury, whose verdict, though not conclusive, frequently in- volves the character of individuals and the happiness of families, should be a highly educated gentleman, of unblemished character, and conversant with the Eng- lish law. It is the presumption of ignorant Coroners that leads to the decline of the offire, and has, in some districts, rendered the verdicts of Coroners' juries bye- words for contempt. Insure thllt none but perfectly coini 6tent persons should be Coroners, and we should find this abuse of the office would cease. Coroners would universally regain that respect in which iliey were once held, and there would be no objection to the adoption of many of the suggestions for reform" thrown out by Mr. Dempsy.
I THE WAR.I
THE WAR. I There is important news this week from the seat of war, which is now transferred to Lombardy. The French and the Sardinians crossed the Ticino on Fri- day, nearly to the west of Novan, and on Saturday a battle, terrible in its results, which involved a slaugh- ter more extensive than we are in the habit of read- ing of in modern times, was fought at Magenta, a small town about ifve miles from tbe river, and 15 nearlv in a western direction from Nalan. The com- batants were two corps d'armce of the Austrian army, 'under the Count Clam Gallas and Prince Ed- ward of Lichtenstein, which had just arrived from Vienna by way of Munich; and the Imperial Guard of the Zouaves—the flower of the French troops. A most decisive victory is claimed for the latter with a loss to the Austrians, of from 15,000 to 17,000 men, put hvrs de combat; and 5,000 to 7,000 taken pri- soners This is the sum of the brief French tele- gram announcing the event; which, also admits that the French loss was 3,000 men; that one cannon was taken by the erc,iiii, and that they had halted on Sunday to re-organise their force. Although therefore, the advantage was undoubtedly with them, the affair was by no means a decisive defeat. The Austrian accounts hitherto received are even briefer than the French; they admit great lossses, that they had ordered Milan to be evacuated and that they wdre retirin" from the Ticino. A telegram dated from Turin, on Monday, says, they were in full re- treat to the Adda, a river which runs in a south-west direction to the Po, some miles to the westward of Milan. The sa.i.e telegram states, that the munici- pality of that city had appeared at the head quarters of the French Emperor, with an address to the King of Sardinia, tendering their subjection to his Majesty, and stating, that the annexation of Lombardy to Piedmont,—which they style" the first step in the new way of public rijjht, which allows nations to be the free disposers of their own destinies,"—had been that morning proclaimed. The war appears, therefore, to be certainly going against the Austrians—who, it is veiy probable, will lose Lombardy. In the mean time, Prince Napo- leon has entered Florence" for strategic purposes," lie says; though why such purposes should require his presence there, so far from the seat of war, it is not easy to determine. There are two parties in Tuscany. One wants to raise Prince Napoleon to the seat of the Grand Duke; the other wishes to transfer their allegiance to the King of Sardinia. In either events, Tuscan independence will be a farce. The small states of Germany—where hostility to France is the paramount feeling—have been anx- iously urging on Prussia t he propriety of interference on the side of Austria. That Power, mow acknow- ledged to be the leading one in Germany, however, resists all attempts to cmhnrk in the war, while it is confined to Italy- Should Austria be attacked in her German dominions, then all Germany will rush to the rescue. Telegrams are continually arriving from the seat o), war; and since the above was m type, aeverallm- j portant ones have teen published. From these we learn, that the Austrian functionaries had retired to Verona from Milan; that, at 8 o'clock, p.m., cn Wednesday, the Emperor of Frunce, and the King of Sardinia, entered Milan, and were received with en- thusiasm that the upper part of Lombardy. which has been freed from the Austriar,s, has proclaimed Victor Emanuel, as king; that Garibaldi, if he ever retired to Switzerland, is returned, and was pursuing the Austrians, General Urbani's forces being scat- tered and dispersed; and tint the Austrians have evacuated Pavia, spiking their guns, and throwing the ammunition into the water. Gen. Gyulai's official account of the battle of Nfa- genta was published at Vienna on Wednesday, It gives the Austrian loss in killed and wounded at be- tween 4,000 and 5,000 men and says the loss of the French was half as much again.-His army had taken up a stron flanking position between Abbiate Grasso and Binaseo, the former being one of the great pas- sages of the Ticino, about 7 miles south of Buffalora, where the French crossed- Binaseo is 22 miles to the south-east, on the road running from Pavia to Milan. This is a position threatening the French at the lat- ter city.-No detailed account has yet been published of the battle of Magenta; but there is no doubt that both parties displayed great bravery. The advantage was ultimately decided in favour of the allies, by the advance of Gen. M'Mahon,—who has been created on the field Marshal of France and Duke of Ma- genta.

The arguments which occupied the attention of th3 Court of Common Pleas in connexion with the es- tates of the Shrewsbury Earldom, for the last eight days, has been brought to a close. Thursday, the Lord Chief Justice delivered the unanimous judgment of the court for the plaintiff. By this decision, unless there is an appeal, the vast estates attach to the Earldom. AnuitYeTWYTH.—This town and neighbourhood were, on Sunday last, visited by a terrific storm of thunder, but up to the present time we have not heard of much damage being done. TOWYN.—RIFLE Coiips,-A rifle corps is about to be established here, including Aberdovey and Pennal. It is expected that we can muster about 50 or 60. C. F. Throaton, Esq., of Talgarth-ball, has taken the initia- tive. LLANitwciiAiAnN.—On Sunday last, the 5th inst., two sermons were preached on behalf of the Church Missionary Society, in the morning at the parish church, and in the eteniunin the new school and chapel-of-ea»e( Peny-gloddfa. The Rev. W. Edwards, vicar of Llan- dow, Glamorgan, was the preacher upon both occasion. A collection was made at the close of each service, whicft amounted to 1(17. Zs. TilE SALE OF SIR ROBFTIT VTILLIAMES VADOHAN'S PERSONALTY. —This extensive and varied sale attracted an immense attendance, not only from all parts of the Principality, but from England, Ireland, and Scotland, The hunters and sporting dogs, especially, were in de- mand, and fetched high prices-oiie hunter as high as £ 140—and another £100 &c. &c. The unentered hounds were r.ot sold- couples realized £150. The Hon, Colonel Pennant, M.P., was amongst the pur- chase's. J'he total amount of the sale was ,£3,330. A CHILD DROWNED IIf Ai WELL.—On Thursday morning last, the body of a cliiIJ 21 years of age, son fif tieo. Davies, earthenware dealer, in this city, was found in a well close to his father's house in KyfBn-square — The deceased, it appears, during the absence of hifr parents, had gone there to play, when he accidentally fell headlong into the water. When found, he held in his grasp a piece of timber which-he took there to float. LLANGEDwrN.—The great sierra' of Tuesday visited this village in all its fury, and we regret to say, caused considerable loss of property. The Green Inn was com- pletely flooded, and the damage done in the cellar alone t-iceede jelOO. The water was five feet high in the brew- house, and two feet in the kitchen, having, in its pro- gres, washed down two strong watls before Miss Bon- ner's house. The house is considerably damaged, and the foundations of the brewhouse have given way. A mangle, weighing more than three tons, fell close to Richard Bate, gardener, but he escaped as it were by miracle. JVJENAI BRIDGE.—WE understand that the Rev. the Rector has arranged to give an evening service in Eng- lish at the new chureh here during the summer sea- 60n, and commenced on Sunday evening last, at six o'clock, with a very numerous congregation. Some persons have asked what was the requirement for an English service? The question has been answered by an attendance five times as numerous as at the Welsh service. It has been suggested, that if necessary, the Welsh congregation might be accommodated ir. the an- cient church on a Sunday evening; the Rector preach- jug and that the services of clergymen visiting the neighbourhoodmay be made available for the English service. CARNARVON,—A special meeting of the Royal Welsh Yacht Club took place at the Club House, on Monday ¡a.I,-the Rear-Commodore, Llewelyn Turner, Esq., presiding. On the motion of Mr. W. K. Owen, se- conded by Mr. Savage, the ensuing regetta was fixed for Friday, the 5th of August. The prizes will be a SO guineas cup, a 20 guineas cup, and a prize of 10 so- vereigns, and tho usual numerous prizes for sailing and rowing boats, scullers' matches, duck hunts, and other sports, Mr Owen proposed Mr. Harrison, of Birken- head, owner of the yacht I Tyro, for election at the next meeting, seconded by the Rear-Commodore. Mr. E. W. Mathew proposed -Mr. Edward Breese for elec- tion at the next meeting, seconded by Major General Gore, EnscopAL CON s iactttiiion .-Three new Bishops will be consecrated in Westminster Abbey, on Tuesday next, being Whit Tuesday-namely, the Yen. James Oolquhoun Campbell, D.D., late Archdeacon of Lion- diifF to the Bishopric of Bangor; the Rev. Dr. Piers Calvelev Claugbton,. late Rector of Elton, Hunlingdon- shire and Proctor in Convocation for the djocesg of Ely, to the Bishopric of St. Helena and the Hev. Dr. E, W. Tuffnell, late Hector of St. Paul and St. Peter, Marlborough, to the Bishopric of Brisbane, Australia. The ceremony will be performed by the Archbishop of Canterbury" who will, in all probability, be assisted by the Bishops of London, Llandaff, Salisbury,. Western New York, and Columbia. FOUND, DROWNED.—On Saturday evening last, a body, far in a state of decomposition, was found in the weir at Port Penrhyn, which afterwards proved to be that of a person of the name of John Davies, Beau. maris who had been missed on the night of the 20th lilt., and whose cap was found on the landing place on the following morning. The general supposition was -that the unfortunate man fell aslesp on the Pier, and on awaking fell over into the sea. He was 36 years of age, and single. An inquest was held on Monday last before E. G. Powell, Esq., when a verdict of Found Drowned was returned by the jury. FIBE AT THE BATH'S ASSEMBLY. ROOM, BANGOR.- Between three and four in the afternoon of Tuesday last, a destructive fire issued forth from the Bath a Assembly Boom, threatening to cause considerable damage to property, and spreading alarm and conster- nation in the minds of the inhabitants of the surround- ing houses. Immediately when the alarm of fire was ■riven people mustered in strong force on the spot, and arranged themselves in two rows, extending from the premises to the river, which most fortunately was close by, and poured a stream of water into the room. Owing to the heat and smoke which prevailed at the time, it was with great difficulty a proper access could: be got into the centre of the room, where the fire was raging, and the hose belonging to the Board of Health, was not available at that particular time; but Mr. pry the brazier, upon hearing of the conflagration, most generously sent down a forcing pump, which he h? in his possession, and that with other means, <on touted materially in averting the further extension of h?evas?ating element. It was totally extinguished .? ab?t an hour and a half; but not without causing considerable damage to Mr Harrison s furniture, which was placed undereath, where he res.ded. The fire is supposed to have originated by the connection of some timber with the chimney, into which the beams ex- tended and it must have been, from the progress it had made, ¡urking there for a length of time. Unfortunately to the proprietor, neither the furniture, nor the premises, had, we understand, been insured. WATCHM.-The practical utility of a good watch- the habits of regularity it generates, and the advantages of the punctuality it assists in securing, are facts proved beyond a doubt. The establishment, then, where, at a reasonable charge, these advantages can be can be ob- tained, must be worthy of attention i it is at the old- established (1749) manufactory of ',I r. J. W. Benson, 33 & 34 Ludgate Hill, London, where may be purchas- ed not only the Chronometer at Sixty Guineas but the Watch at Two Guineas, and the various other kinds of watches (duplex, lever, horizontal, or vertical) at reasonable prices, all displaying the utmost finish and uperiority of manufacture; and with each watch i. given a aw?arra n'"ty ? for two years, and sent free by post on re. ceipt of a remittance. Mr. Benson with a view of an- ."? ? ? ?Z? ?d to enable the nobility, gentry, and the public in general residing in England, Ireland, lor Wales, or in any part of the World, intending to pur- chase (but who cannot personally i?it Ius establishment), has published an elaborate Illustrated I amphlet on 1 Watches 'free by post for two stamps), from which they se ct the watch adapted for theIr use, and have it transmitted by post, and which conams important in- formation as to what watch to buy! where to buy how to use it! and from its perusal will be readily seen the great importance of purchasing watches of a first- class London manufacturer. To this pamphlet particular attention is requested, as it ought to be read by svtry* body intendipg to purohage a Watob,
MARRIAGE CELEBRATION.
MARRIAGE CELEBRATION. On Monday, the Cth inst., the nuptials of Richard R. Rathbone, Esq., of Liverpool, and Miss Roberts, of Glan- ymcnai, near Beaumaris, were celebrated at the pic- turesque little country Church of Llandegfan, Anglesey. The universal esteem and respect in which the bride is held caused the whole parish to be one general scene of rejoicing. Scarce a house but had its decorat' on in the way of tlag or festoons of flowers, and triumphal arcbes were erected in some parts of the road along which the bridal cortege passed. The Ihtle Church presented a very pretty sight: an awning extending from the gate to the porch had been most tastefully decorated with evergreens and flowers, at the open sides of which the school-children were drawn up, whose part was to strew the bride's path with roses as she came out, and cheer the young couple as they drove away. The scene inside the Church was most interesting, the Bridal Party forming a very imposing tableau round the altar, while a lit1 le in the back-ground were grouped some of the bride's fair friends, the rest of the Church being occupied by a great number of people from the parish and neighbourhood, who were ad. mitted to see the ceremony. The school-children and others had tea in the after- noon in the school-room, which had been most beauti- fully decorated by the master and mistress, who were most kindly aided in the management of the tea-drink- ing by other young people of the neighbourhood, who were only too really to give their assistance on so auspicious an occasion, ON their arrival at Glan-y-Menai from Church, the young couple were received with a salute of nineteen guns from Garth Ferry, under the direction of Mr. Morgan, the worthy and enterprising lessee, and with a similar salute from Brynteg Hill. A salute of the same number of guns opened again from Garth Ferry on tire departure of the bride and bridegroom for thtir wedding tour but it is time that, having taken them thus far, we should now bid them adieu, assuring them that, together with onr regrets for our own loss, they carry with them our most earnest and sincere wishes for their happiness and welfare.
BANGOlt VESTRY MEETING. |
BANGOlt VESTRY MEETING. On Saturday, I he 4th inst., a Vestry Meeting of the inhabitants of Bangor was held at the Cathedral Church, the ltev. Evan Pugbe, vicar, in the chair. It was called by the Churchwardens of the Parish, for the purpose of taking into consideration the best means of providing a new burial ground for the parish of Bangor. Mr. H. Beaver Roberts proposed and Mr. Henry Morris seconded,—that in the opinion of this meeting, the best means of providing a cemetry for the parish of Bangor, will be by exchanging the Church lauds called Glanrafon, belonging to (be poor of the parish, for lands more conveniently situated for the purpose, charging the cemetry with an annual sum equal to the rent of those lands, such sum to be appropriated in the same way as the rents. Mr, Griffith Davies pro p ose d and Mr. Simp.on se:ded! )frv :t). :'in::C I to communicate with the Charity Commissioners, in order to-ascertain whether they will consent to such an arrangement,. and upon what termi. These were carried unanimously, and the meeting was adjourned to the 20th of June, to take place at 10 o'clock in the morcing.

7 INDIAN HER&ES. We copy the following from I The Calcutta Gazette, Kitriordinary,' Saturday, April 23, "Fott William, Military Department. "22nd April. "The Secortd; Battalion Military Train is under or. ders for immediate Embarkation for England. "The Career in India of this Corps has been short, but brilliant and eminently serviceable to its country. '"Upon arriving at the Presidency it was at once con- verted into a Cavalry Force, and sent untrained into the Field under the late Sir Henry Havelocfc. Throughout the glbrious and most trying Summer Campaign, of which the first Relief of Lueknow was the fruit, the Military Train bore a part which would have reflected Credit upon the oldest and most expeiUnced' Cavalry Soldiers. It has since served'with distinction in various affairs under liieutenant General Sir James Outram, at the Capture of Lueknow, in the Operations about Azimghur, and lastly in the harassing Campaign of Shahabad.

PWLLHELI, THURSDAY, June 9;…
PWLLHELI, THURSDAY, June 9; Beforo-tbe Mayor, and Griffith Jones, Esq. Evan Jones, alias t. Evan yr Engine," was-charged with having assaulted John Jones, alias Jack Ame- rica bach,on the evening of Tuesday last. It ap- peared, from the evidence of complainant, that the de- fendant bad gone to his house when in a state of drun- kenness, and made an excuse that he wanted to see his own sister. Upon being told by the complainant that she was not within, he immediately, without the least provocation, took hold of the poker, and struck him a severe blow on his head. Afterwards he went away, and wab soon apprehended and locked up. The com- plainant was attended by H. H, Hughes, Esq., who gave his evidence this day, shewing that tho blow was a serious one, although, in his opinion, it would not be attended'with fatal consequences. The defendant was convicted and the Mayor very severely reprimanded him upon the charge proved against him, and also upon his habitual state of drun- kenness and improper character. Fined £5 and costs. The money not being forthcoming, he was sentenced to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two ca- lendar months. Robert Williams, farmer, v. Ellen Williams.-This was a charge tor having created a disturbance, and kicked the complainant's door on Friday last, contrary to the bye-laws of the borough. The case was clearly establised against the defendant, who was-mulcted in a fine of 3. costs divided. In default of payment, 7 days' imprisonment. She was locked up.

In justice, however,, to tbe parties, it is right to say, that hitherto pewter mea. sures were only interfered with and it appears the present information is something new however, it will not be the fault of the publie if they allow themselves to he robbed every time they have a glass of beer,, expect- they are drinking half a-pint. GUILDHALL, CARNARVON, THURSDAY, June 9. Before 1'. Turner, and G. Harding, Esqrs. Excise Case.-Infringement of the Turnpike Act.— D. Williams, Star I Cainarvon, was charged with carrying persons in hs car on a day, and at a ?p,?,1, his license did not permit. LI. Turner, Esq., conducted the prosecution, and E. G. Powell, Esq., defended.- The latter said, that he thought their Worships would agree with him, and let the defendant off by paying costs for, considering that it could not be intentional, as, by paying the trifling sum of 8d for the day's license, he might have avoided the fine their Worships might inflict on him. Taking a very lenient i iew of the case, the Worships ordered him to pay the costs, amounting to £3 10. with a caution. H. Williams was fined 5s for being drunk, on the pre- vious evening.
BANGOR, FRIDAY, June 3.
BANGOR, FRIDAY, June 3. Before J. V. II. Williams, Esq. John Jones, (alias Jack Tumbler, and Thomas Williams, (alias" Berw Dwr,") were brought up by Inspector Jones charged with stealing a purse and a Bum of movey, the property of one Mary Ellis, of Llanberis.* It appears that on Friday (market day) an old woman picked up a purse in the street, and whilst holding it in her hand inquired for the owner, when the prisoners came liP, the first of whom said it was his, and the latter said it belonged to him, to whom it was given with the understanding that he was the owner. Shortly afterwards the real owner made her appearance, and gave information to the police. The Inspector then traced the prisoners, and found Thomas Williams in possession of the purse and money. They were both committed to take their tt-iot at the next Quarter Session*,
I MENAI BRIDGE, MONDAV, June…
MENAI BRIDGE, MONDAV, June 6. Before the Rev. Dr. Jones, Elizabeth Owen was charged with concealing the birth of a male child of which she had been delivered on the 21st ult. The evidence of the witnessei were substantially the same as that given at the Coi oner's inquest, and which we published in a previous number of our paper, ex- cept the following additional evidence of Mary Pearson, wife of an engint-driver residing at Upper Bangor.-She stated that the prisoner was in her service two years next August, which she left on the 19th May. I suspected her of being in the family way, and accused her of it. Her reply was that she was all right." She had no child's clothing prepared during the time she was with me I am certain of that, for if she had, I would have been sure to have seen them. The prisoner having then been cautioned in the usual way, was committed to take her trial at the next Assizes. B4ii was accepted for her appearance. (Before J. Williams, Esq., and Rev. Dr. Jones.) Ellen Williams v. John Lewis.—This was an affilia- tion case. Defendant was represented by Mr R. D'j Williams, Carnarvon. Order made to pay 2s. 6d. weekly for first six weeVs after birth, and afterwards Is? (;(,? weekly, and L I 17s. costs. Complainant resides in the parish of Llangaffo, and the defendant at Gder- wen, and is a collier. William Hughes and William Williams, farm ser- vants at Rhydydelyn, Pentraeth, were each committed under the "Criminal Justice Act" for one day, for stealing rabbit traps, the properly of Wm. Williams, Esq., Plasgwyn, Pentraeth, It was owing to their pre- vious good character that the Magistrates sent them to prison for so short a term. Several poor and highway rates were allowea; arid a transfer of ale license granted to Michael Pricbard, from Wm. Edwards, Star, Peninynydd.

Any person desirous to see the strange family, is perfectly welcome to do so, by calling at David Barnes's cottage, Farndon.

The condition of the prisons was" with a few exceptions, generally satisfac- tory, and in the past year the eyetem ofseparate confine- ment has been introduced into the gaol of Newgate, by which that prison has been assimilated to the House of Correction of the City of London, at Hollsway, the ar- rangements of which are excellent. Mr. Perry calls the visiting justices of the Brecon (South Wales) County Gaol to account for putting certain prisoners in iron for two monthsj-th^re being no legal warrant for so doing, except for the purpose of controlling violence or pre- venting escape. The men were being punished for an escape only.
