THE GREAT AMBASSADOR OF HEALTH! TO ALL MASKIND. HOLLOWAY'S PILLS. I A Boon to the Sick! The want of a sterling medicinal preparation to meet the many ills that flesh is heir to," and one entirely free from mineral and other deleterious particles was severely felt till this all pow- erful medicine was ushered into the world. Holloway's invalv,- able Pills have become the Household remedy of all nations. Their attribute is to prevent as well as to cure. They attack the root of the complaint, and thus, by removing the hidden cause of disease, re-invigorate and restore the drooping energies of the system, assisting nature in her task of vital and fnnctionary reformation. Bilious Complaints. Those who suffer from bile and liver complaints should try the effect of this valuable remedy, a few doses of which will make the sufferer feel elastic and vigorous, remove all impediments, cleanse the blood from all impurities, give a healthy action to the liver, and strengthen the stomach. If bilious attacks be al- lowed to continue without using such a preventive, more serious casualties may arise and the sufferer be consigned to a bed of sickness. These Pills are an extraordinary remedy in removing acidity from the stomach and correcting indigestion. Complaints Incident to Children. In no country in the world are more child ren carried to an early grave than in this. Cough, measles. scarlatina, fevers, and similar diseases attack the little sufferers, and death but too often follows at a rapid pare; yet if at the first stage of the complaints parents were to have recourse to Holloway's Pills, all danger would be avoided; for the stomach and bowels being gently but effectually cleansed by this mild aperient, the depraved hu- mours corrected, and the secretions duly regulated, a perfect cure is soon effected, and the little patient is restored to sound health. Sick Headache with Xioss of Appetite. A certain cure for headaches loss of appetite and low spirits These Pills may he taken without danger from wet or cold, and require no restraint from business or pleasure. They strengthen the stomach, and promote a healthy action of the liver, purify- ing the blood, cleansing the skin, bracing the nerves, and invi- gorating the system.

Eocal information. ST. DAVIDS' CLUB.—On Thursday last the mem- bers of this oid-established convivial club held their adjourned annual dinner at the Lion Hotel, under the able presiripnry of John JJavies, Esq., of. Pier street, the senior member. The dinner, wines, and dessert were, as usual, most excellent; but the cuisine and cellars of the Lion Hotel are too well- known to require comment. A pleasant evening was spent, enlivened by many a merry song and bal- lad, and the whole w as characterized with that good feehng, joviality, and harmony, for which this old and respectable club has ever been celebrated. ABERYSTWITH VoLUKTKHR RIFLE CORPs-On Wednesday last the members of the Volunteer rifle corps paraded for the first time in uniform, and considerable excitement and interest was displayed by the inhabitants generally thereupon. The corps assembled in the town hall at 4 o'clock, and shortly after the doors were thrown open, the upper part of the hall was speedily filled by a large concourse of ladies and gentlemen of the town and neighbour- hood, the former by their bright smiles and gay at- tire adding additional lustre to the scene. The members looked extremely well in their new and smart uniform, which is of grey cloth, handsomely trimmed and faced with red and black. After falling in, and being placed in line according to size, the members were marched out to the marsh adjoining, and there, in the presence of a large number ot spectators practised in marching in slow time, and In the formation of fours-deep. Consider- ing the fact that a great many of the members have been unavoidably absent from drill nearly the whole period since enrolment,J;he various movements were very creditably performed. The drill-instructor complained sadly of an affection for chatter dis- played by many of the members which they would do well to abandon. The Lord Lieutenant, Capt. Pryse, M.P., accompanied by his nephew Pryse Loveden, Esq., of Gogerddan, were among the spec- tators, and the former gentleman communicated to the corps,through Robert,Edward, Esq.,our respected mayor, his extreme satisfaction at the soldierlike ap- pearance of the members, and the progress made by them in drill. After upwards of an hour's prac- tice the corps marched from the marsh along the Marine Terrace, Pier street, and Church street, to the open space in front of the Assembly rooms, where they were dismissed. We believe the general parade days remain fixed for Tuesdays and Fridays, with extra parades on Wednesdays and Thursdays, the time of meeting being four o'clock. On the ge- nerat parades (for non-attendance at which a fine is inflicted) the full uniform is to be worn, but on the extra days the cross-belt and pouch, and the ball- bag and bayonet frog are not to be worn. The extra days are intended to suit the convenience of those who wish to proceed rapidly with drill, and there are no fines for non-attendance on them. We trust before long to see the members armed with the death-dealing Enfield, and proceeding with target practice.

CARDIGANSHIRE LENT ASSIZES. The commission for these Assizes was opened on Thursday, the 1st inst., at Cardigan. The Judge,* Sir John Burnard Byles, one of the Justices of her Majesty's Court of Common Pleas, arrived early in the afternoon, and was met at the entrance of the town by the High Sheriff, William Jones, Esq., and a retinue of javelin-men, and es- corted to the Shire-hall, where the commission was opened, after which his Lordship attended divine ser- vice at St. Mary's Church. FRIDAY. The Court sat to-day at 10 o'clock, nominally for the trial of prisoners, but that happy absence from crime which Cardiganshire so markedly enjoys, was characteristic of the present assize, where there-was not a single delinquent for trial. The Grand Jury having been formed and the usual Proclamation read, his Lordship addressed the Grand Inquest as follows:- Gentlemen of the Grand Jury of the county of Cardigan,—I am happy to be able to inform you, that it is not probable there are any bills of indict- ment to be presented to you to-day a state of things novel in my experience, but highly gratifying to you, very creditable to the county, and especially to yourselves, who are entrusted with the adminis- tration of public justice within its limits. I therefore have the happiness to discharge you, unless indeed you have any presentment to make as you are aware it is your duty and your privilege, propria, motu, to originate any proceedings, to notice any public nui- sauce, or place at that bar any whom others may be too negligent or timorous to prosecute. Although, there is but little criminal business, there is, I am told, not only a sufficiency, but a superfluity-a surfeit—of civil business, which, my Lord Coke tells us, indicates the prosperity of a country. Criminal trials cer- tainly are a sad necessity civil disputes, to be deci- ded in due course of law, are a luxury, in which I am happy to see you are able to indulge. The satisfac- tion that you may derive from what will be mitigated in some degree by recollecting that if so much civil business should become common in this county, it may be neccessary to provide more effectually for the i administration of public justice. Under present cir- cumstances I should think it improper to waste the c public time by detaining you longer with any obser- vations. I have the pleasure and the happiness to inform you that you are discharged, and the county is obliged to you for the services you were willing to have rendered. HUGHES V. ATWOOD AND ANOTHER. This, nominally, was a mere action for trespass, but in reality involved the ownership over a vast amount of land and minerals, and created great in- terest. Mr. Grove, Q. C., Mr. GitFard, and Mr. H. James, the latter specially retained, appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr Bovill, Q.C., Mr. Welsby, both specially retained, and Mr Henry Allen, were counsel for the defendants. The cause was tried before a special jury. Mr. Henry James opened the pleadings. The plaintiff in his declaration complained that the defendants knocked down certain stone walls in his lands. The defendants pleaded, firstly, not guilty, of the trespass: secondly, that the land upon which the stone walls were built was not the land of the plaintiff: thirdly, that the walls did not belong to the plaintiff: fourthly, that the walls were built on the land of Mr. Pryse Loveden, and that the defen- dants as his servants knocked down the walls. There were two other pleas substantially the same. Upon all these pleas issues had been joined. Mr. Grove, in opening the case to the jury, said he appeared as the counsel for the plaintiff, who was tenant of-Brynfedwin, and who brought this action for a trespass committed by the defendants pulling down a wall, which was a boundary or party wall between his farm and Moelferim, and he might make a simple case by merely proving the possess- ion by the tenants and the act of trespass complained of, but it would be better to tell the jury what was the real issue they would have to try in this case, what was the issue which was mainly raised, and the various issues upon which they would have to give their opinion. The farm of Brynfedwin had been in the possession of the Davies's Tanybwlch for a century and a half, and the farm of Moelferim belonged to the same family. The portion of the land upon which the wall was built adjoined the farm of Brynfedwin, which was divided by this wall from a portion of the farm of Moelferim. The land was of a rough nature, and previous to this wall being built, the boundaries between the two farms were kept by shepherds keeping their sheep, and the boundaries had been kept in this way from time im- memorial, up to a period of recent date. The te- nants, up to a late period, had died: only two were living. The first tenant of Brynfedwin was Edward Jones, who was succeeded by Evan Davies, Morgan Joues, and Thomas Davies; all these were succeed- ed by John Griffiths, who was tenant, from 18*29 up to 1842, and who would be called. He was succeeded 1842, and who would be called. He was succeeded by Hugh Hughes the present plaintiff. These te- nants would prove that this land was as completely a part of the farm of Brynfedwin as anything could be. ffe (the learned counsel) had looked to see how this could be considered as said not to be a part of the farm, and there seemed to be but one point on which it differed, and that was that it had not got a hedge the boundaries being kept in the manner he had de- scribed, by keeping the cattle each within their res- pective farms. He apprehended this would be a main j element in his friend's case, that whereas other por- tions had a hedge this had none he apprehended this would be the substance of his case. In other res- pects, lie (the learned counsel) thought he should satisfy them, unless the whole of the evidence he had was a delusion, that every act of ownership that could be exercised over land was exercised over this by the successive tenants of the farm of Mr. Davies. They grazed it, kept the boundaries carefully, depas- tured by their own sheep and cattle, and took on tack" those of other people, receiving monies for their grazing. They opened quarries upon it; from these quarries large quantities of slates were taken, which were sold by the tenants, they paying royalty to the landlord. All this was done publicly. In ad- dition to that, tithes, rates, and taxes were paid. A portion of it was enclosed fifteen years since, no com- plaint was made of it, or of these quarries, no com- plaint was made of keeping the boundaries in, and turning other people's cattle and sheep away, or of taking them to "tack." The Messrs. Davies shot over this spot, and prohibited everybody else, and this, at a time when they were not on very good terms with the then asserted lord of the manor. He (the learned counsel) could not see any one act of owner- ship which was not exercised with respect to this land. Every matter for which this land could be useful; every perception of profit that could be got from it was exercised by the owners of this land, Z, or by their tenants. They used the hay and grass, and whatever it produced, and they sold that by taking tack" for payment. His learned friend said the family of Pryse were lords of the manor he would assume that that was so. Within the manor there were wastes, a manor, as they knew, was supposed to consist of what were called demesne lands, or waste lands, over which freeholders had the right of com- mon. Within this manor there were wastes, and his learned friend would rather assume that all unenclosed land within the manor was the waste of the mai-ior. How could this be a waste of the manor ? As far as he (the learned counsel) was instructed, there never had been any rights of common. Were inclosure taking in sheep to "tack" depasturing in severalty, were any of these rights of common? Therefore every act of ownership capable of being exercised over land, had been exercised over this, with one excep- tion, that a fence had not been put round it till 1848; when, as land had become more valuable, it became more desirable to enclose it, and these two tenants i agreed that this wall should be kept as the boundary, the same boundary laid having been kept to a period to which memory could not extend. The fence was put up in 1848, and there it remained for six years. In 1854 Mr. Atwood as attorney for Mr. Loveden, the real defendant, pulled this wall down from begin- ning to end. The wall was rebuilt. Mr. Atwood1 went and demanded payment of a small sum as an ac- knowledgement, that sum was refused—he would have accepted anything,—and in 1857 down went I I C(1 this wall again, and it was for this pulling down this action was brought. He was told there was an old fence called clawdd mynydd, which ran along and divided to some extent the mountain lands from the lands below. Thy origin of this fence was lost in time, and no witnesses would pretend to give anv information as to it; and what use his learned friend would make of it he could not see. His own theory was that it was only a fence erected in order to keep the cattle and sheep on the mountains from getting on the cultivated lands below. The following evidence was then produced :— John Morgan Davies I am a surveyor. I made a survey of the property in question last year. That comprehends the place where the wall is situated, and the neighbourhood round about. It accurately indi- cates the objects of the surrounding locality. Cross-examined. It is common in Cardiganshire to find a mountain fence called clawdd mynydd on ma- nors, and it sometimes extends for miles unbroken except by gates. I cannot say whether there is a clawdd running for miles from Korth to South in the Geneu'rglyn manor. I will swear I did not purposely omit a clawdd from my survey; I was only told in the usual way to make a plan. Hugh Hughes (the plaintiff in this action): I am fifty two years of age. I was born at Cwmbyr. When I was a boy I went to Bwlcbygarreg. I have been in the neighbourhood of Brynfedwin all my life. I have been residing at Brynfedwin for the last eighteen years. I know the boundaries of the farm, and the place where the wall was pulled down. It was within the boundaries. I remember the wall pulled down. His Lordship: I suppose that is not disputed Mr. Gifliud There is a plea of not guilty, my Lord. Mr. Bovill: There will be uo difficulty about that -we admit the trespass. His Lordship: I was surprised to see the plea of. not guilty in a case of this sort. But it is sometimes done to enable a particular witness to be called. Mr. Welsby: Yes, my Lord. Examination resumed Before I became tenant of Brynfedwin the tenants of that farm grazed their sheep as the tenants-but no other people beside them. Sometimes the sheep of other people strayed there, and on such occasions they were sent away. This part 01 the mountain is where the wall was. Since I have been tenant I have grazed all my sheep in the same way. The wall was a boundary between the Moelferim and the Brynfedwin people, and they each grazed their sheep on their own sides of the wall. The wall was first built eight years ago. I re- member the quarry of Brynfedwin. There were two or three, but only one great one. I remember the first being opened, which is at least twenty-four years ago. I was then forty. His Lordship: That would make him sixty-four— a little while ago lie was fifty-two. (A laugh.) Witness continued It was the great quarry which was first opened. That was about six years before I went to the farm. Richard Evans, at that time living at Moelferim, opened it. Stones were raised ) out of it, and it went on four or five years. They raised slate also. I have heard Richard Evans say he was paying royalty for leave to raise the stones, but I have not seen him pay anybody. I have seen slates sent to Caneinog. I raised them myself, l was not paid for raising them. I was with my fa- ther two years raising them. He was selling them to others. I remember Richard Lewis coming to the quarries for payment. I gave my father eighteen shillings to pay, but whether he paid it or not I can't say. He borrowed it from me to pay. Mr Lewis was the steward of Mr. Davies of Tanybwlch. His Lordship: It does not assist you unless you shew what he did with the money. Mr. Ginard I propose to ask him what his father, at the time of working the quarry and selling the slates, said he paid for liberty to work the quarry. The question being objected to, was not pressed. Examination resumed: I remember Vaughan Pritchard and Hugh Hughes making a fence round about an acre or an acre and a half. This was in Brynfedwin. Richard Lewis, steward of Mr. Davies, knew of their building it, and gave leave, and there was no objection on the part of anybody else. This was 17 years ago. Nobody sported on the Bryn- fedwin mynydd but the Brynfedwin people. I re- member the Blaenffynone-with reference to the well, it was one of the boundaries of the piece of land in dispute. From this well a spring flows to Brynfedwin House. The boundaries went from the mountain fence, one side running down by the well. Cross-examined by Mr. Bovil: Richard Evans occupied Moelferim when I went to Brynfedwin. My farm adjoins the sheep walk. There is a clawdd mynydd between my farm and the sheep walk. It also divides Moelferim and the sheep walk, and con- tinues dividing tlienext farm (Blaenceilan) Irom the sheep walk. In the other direction Cwmbyr adjoins Brynfedwin, and the clawdd serves the same pur- pose in this case, but I don't know that it continues for miles to divide the cultivated land from the lest. I don't think it does so for one mile. There is a gate on the clawdd to the mountain between Brvn- fedwin and Cwmbyr, forming a road for persons and cattle. There.is no fence between Moelferim and Blaenceilan. One side of the clawdd is open land —sheep walk—but I don't know that we can walk for miles without coming to a fence. Before the wall was built between Brynfedwin and Moelferim, the boundary was a green road and no fence. The Brynfedwin sheep walk was to the east o! the road, and the Moelferim to the westward. The wall was not to the west of the road. The occupier of Moelferim and I built it between us. It was a little on the Moelferim side. The road between the tuo sheep walks went on towards Machynlleth. I claimed the pasturage in my sheep walk. The wall was made as a boundary to maintain peace between me and Richard Evans. I have known the manor of Geneu'rg]yn (which comprehends all this waste) forty years. I cannot say whether it is fifteen miles long. When the wall was built I was requested by the Lord of the manor to pull it. down. Richard Evans, John Griffiths, Evan Evans, and others gave further evidence in favour oft.be plaintiff. The Court adjourned at half-past six o'clock. SATURDAY. The Court opened at 10 o'clock, when a deal of additional evidence was given on behalf of the piaintiff, all corroborating what had been said as .,0 Mrs. Davies's rights. After the conclusion of the plaintiff's case, Mr. Bovill addressing the jury for defendants, said he appeared as counsel for Mr. Pryse Loveden, and he avowed that he was there on his behalf as lord of the manor, in the defence of his rights. The action was not brought against, him, it was brought against Mr. Atwood and Mr. Williams, but they had acted for him. be avowed their acts, and though not no- minally the defendant, was really the defendant on record. On the other side, the plaintiff he (the learn- ed counsel) did not know who he might be, or who she might be, but it was quite clear that some person of the name of Hughes was put forward in that posi- tion, but the real plaintiff was Mrs. Davies, of Tan- ybwlch, the mother-in-law of Mr. Crealock, the at- torney, who was instructing his learned friend Mr Grove. And he (the learned counsel) must sav that in a question of this sort, the jury had a ri'o-ht to know who were the real parties before them, and he must confess his surprise that Mr. Grove, appearing as he did, instructed by Mr. Crealock, 'should at- temptto avoid the question as to who was the plaintiff. His learned friend was instructed by that very clever gentleman from London (Mr. Crealock), who knew so much of the customs of Wales, first came down and took off one of its fair ladies, (laughter), and next came clown to endeavour to upset rights that had been undisputed for centuries, and upon the jury would depend who those rights should hereafter be- | iong to. This question involved the right to the larger portion of minerals over 35 miles of country, the importance of which the jury might very easily imagine. There were thousands of acres all through that district, and within the manor of Geneu'rglvn, and if Mrs. DaneS was entitled to the minerals under that portion of the mountain, all the tenants were entitled to the minerals under the mountains gene- rally, and rrvse Lowden might give up the possessions of his ancestors, and the emoluments de- rived from the soil throughout the whole district. On the rise of the mountain at Brynfedwin, there were some slate, stony stuff, cropping out in the side of the hill they wanted a chapel roofed, and took some slates, then they wanted some slates for a house and took them also, and having got some for these purposes they wanted to sell some too and altoge- ther, perhaps,' they took 40,000, which, calculating them at 2s. a thousand, shewed they had taken £ 4 worth of slates, which was to give them a rio'ht to the freehold of 60,000 or 70,000 acres of this Hryn- fedwin sheep-walk. Moreover, there was this ele- ment in the case supposing somebody was to go with- out the knowledge of the lord of the manor, and take out some of his slates, how was that evidence against the lord of the manor? It was attempted to be shewn that the agent at Aberystwith knew of it, but it turned out that he was never seen there. Then the woodman was spoken to, but it turned out that he was never seen there either, so that the slate had been taken in the absence of the lord and his agents. In conclusion the learned counsel referred with deri- I sion to the evidence produced by the plaintiff as to the right of sporting. It turned out, he said, that in thirty years one or two hares and a brace or two of birds had been killed, which it was a mere idle farce to talk of as being a right of ownership. When they talked of acts of that kind being sufficient to deprive the lord of the valuable minerals under the waste, it seemed to him to be almost trifling with the subject. John Matthews examined by Mr. Welsby: I am a land-surveyor at Aberystwifh, and prepared this plan from an actual survey of the land. The red line represents a mountain fence. Parts of it were dilapi- dated, but all easily traceable. The fence is de- scribed in the Ordnance Map. Cross-examined by Mr. Grove: The boundaries of Brynfedwin were not pointed to me by the then te- nant. The tenant of Moelferim pointed out to me the boundary between the liberty of Brynyfedwin and Moelferim. There was a gap. Mr. Atwood told me he had pulled down a wall. I cannot say whether this was a part of the clawdd mynydd or no. Contradictory evidence to that given by plaintiff's witnesses was given by John Graham Williams, Jenkin Jenkins, Richard Griffiths, ane others, At this stage (half past 5 o'clock) the court was adjourned till MONDAY. The court sat this morning at 9 o'clock, when the evidence for the defendant was resumed. A charter of the reign of Edward the First, making a grant of the lands of Geneu'rglyn & itS appurtenan- ces to Roger de Mortimer, was produced, also a deed of the 10th April, 1608, '(in the reign of Elizabeth,) by which the same property was conveyed to one John Pryse, an ancestor of the present defendant. Richard Richards, John Morgan, Richard Grif- fith", Thomas Rowland, Jenkin Jenkins, and others having given evidence in favour of the defendant, Mr. Bovill proceeded to sum up his evidence. He complained of what he termed, the disinglorious way in which Mr. Grove had introduced the case, by pre- sen ting it on a false foundation, and ignoring the ex- istence of the clawdd, a mountain fence, which he had since been obliged to admit. He insisted that the lord's right to the waste was proved, alike by the original grant, by the steady resistance shewn to all encroachments on it, and by the leases that had been granted, more or less, for centuries, to private parties to work mines under and cited Mrs. Davies's letter, to Capt. Pryse, as testifying to that lady's conviction that the waste was not in her possession, but in the Lord of the Manor. He denied that the stones and slates, shown to have been taken, had been removed with the .cognisance of the-lord, but urg^u. that even if this were not so, if he were aware of it, and the parties in virtue at the time, had even exercised this privilege, had made it a right that this would prove their right to the soil: and it is not to be supposed, he said, that Mrs. Davies in this action meant only to retain the power of taking stones and slates-this she might do, but to grasp at the vast amount of mi- nerals that lay beneath the waste. At the conclusion of the learned counsel's address (it being now seven o'clock, and Mr. Grove urging that he laboured under too great physical exhaustion to reply) the Court adjourned. TUESDAY. The Court sat at nine o'clock. Mr. Grove, who had the general reply, then ad- dressed the jury in an impassioned and powerful speech, which, for want of space, we cannot insert at length. His Lordship, in summing up the case to the jury, observed, with regard to the clawdd mynydd, there was a great deal of evidence to prove that it was of the character suggested by the defendant. If only a private fence, as was suggested by the plaintiff, to prevent cattle from straying from the hills to the cultivated land below, why should there be a gene- ral inspection, why should the lord, if it did not nf- fect, his rights, be so anxious about it, have the homagers appointed at his court, and the fence pe- rambulated, and why, moreover, should no other fence be perambulated. It struck him that the cinwdd and the perambulation were strong evidence for the defendant, but, in addition to this,"there was a large body of presentments coming to a recent period, 1826, and there were perpetual instances of persons being fined for not repairing the fence, and for not repairing a ditch adjoining to some coin- mon land, but there were no instances of people being fined for not repairing their own fences. Without going minutely through the evidence, his lordship elv gave a rewiew of the case, dwelling strongly on the f rights which were shown to have been exercised by the Lord, from time immemorial, on the manor; and then came to the question, whether the land in ques- tion was the property of Mr. Pryse Loveden or of Mrs. Davies. The question he left was this it was said by the defendants, that the seperate usor by the plaintiffs might have been, & was an exercise of com- mon rights on the other side it was said that these acts were an exerise not of common rights but were of a freehold nature, exercised by the tenants of the freehold. He left it to the jury to say what was the character of those acts, and what was the inferene they drew from them. Did they believe that the lord had made out a general title to this part of the wast ? Were they satisfied the plaintiff had shown such acts as would convince them that she or her tenants were freeholders—owners, and not parties using an ease- ment ? Unless it became the plaintiff's freehold be- fore 1839 it could not have become since, but in order to make it her freehold since 1839 these acts of usor must have begun in 1819. If the jury could see their way to the conclusion that she had been owner since 1819, then they would find for the plaintiff, with no- minal damages. If, on the other hand, they thought the lord's title made out and not displaced, they would find for the defendant. The jury then retired, and after an absence of four hours intimated to the Court that there was no pos- sibility of their agreeing. They were accordingly discharged without giving a verdict. It was stated that ten of the jury were favorable to the plaintiff and two in favor of the defendant. The trial lasted exactly four days. Reg. v. Piper and another. This was an indict- ment removed by certiorari from the Quarter Ses- sions into the Queen's Bench. The defendants were charged with an assault. The defendants were authorised by Mrs. Jones, the plaintiff in the action- to attempt to recover pos- session for her of the premises before mentioned, and the alleged assault was said to have been committed in the act of turning out of the house the wife of Daniel Jones, the defendant in the two actions. By arrangement between the parties, and subject to certain terms, connected with the actions, a verdict of not guilty was taken in this case. Jones v. Jones. In this action, which was a writ of ejectment to recover possession of certain premises situated at Llandewi-brefi, of which the plaintiff was devisee, and which the defendant had entered and taken possession of in May last. The record was withdrawn, subject, as we understand, to an ar- rangement between the parties by which the plain- tiff was to have the premises delivered up on an early day. The business of the asizes terminated at 5 o'clock.
