It appears that under the powers con ferret on both companies by the South Wales Act 1845, the Grea! Western Company have taken the South Wales line on lease in perpetuity, covenanting to pay the South Wales proprietor- t 5 per cent. per annum on its costs (not exceeding £ 4,000,000; besides half the net profits, from and after the expiration of five years from the opening of the line. The original esti- mate for the whole line, including a bridge over, or a tunnel under, the Severn, as also a branch to Pembroke, was £ 2,500,000, and it is calculated that a saving of from £400,000 to £.500,000 upon this estimate, will be effected by the abandonment of the intention of making such bridge or tunnel. The proposed branch to Pembroke also will be con- structed only in the event of there being adequate surplus funds out of the £4,000,000 guaranteed by the Great Western Company, of which, however, there can be no doubt, contracts for about fifty-four miles of the line having been alreay let. in some instances under the estimate, and in others over, but on the average within the estimate, and there being the strongest reason to believe that the whole of the remaining contracts, to within nine miles only of Fishguard, will be let (also within the estimate), by the next general meeting, to be held in February. It will thus be seen that this line offers peculiar advantages as a permanent investment, the terms of the arrangement, as above described, involving an absolute guarantee by the Great Western Company, to the proprietors of the South Wales, of five per cent. per annum, in perpe- tuity, besides half the net profits after five years from the opening of the line. The directors of the South Wales are at present restricted by their Act to the allowance of interest at the rate of four per cent, only upon the £ 10 per shares paid up, but a clause is inserted in the bill for this session, em- powering them to increase the rate to five per cent. from the 1st January instant, and the Great Western Company being parties to the application, there can be no doubt ofits being as- sented to by parliament. Upon calls paid in anticipation, five per cent. have been, and will continue to be allowed.- liristol Mirror.

PEMBROKE BOARD OF GUARDIANS. At a meeting of the guardians of the above union, on Wednesday last, the following gentlemen attended: The Earl of Cawdor, Messrs. G. Dunn (chairman), E. Leach (vice-chairman), Phillips, Codd, War)ow, G. Thomas, John Thomas, T. Lewis. J. Morgan, Batson, D. S. Thomas, Lock, G. Furlong, M. Davies, and the Rev. J. Allen. The minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed. The relieving officers presented their lists of out-door re- lief as did the master his journal in which was stated that he had taken Sarah Cole and Martha Stokes before the mayor, for breaking into the bake-house and stealing there- from a quantity of white bread the mayor committed them to prison for one month. He had also taken before the mayor, William Herbert, a vagrant, for breaking 15 squares of glass in the workhouse; he was likewise committed for one month and hard labor. The master begged to be inform- ed what he was to do for a barber to cut the children's hair, &c. He had applied to the porter for the purpose, but thlit officer had refused to perform that duty, as it was not men- tioned in his agreement. Mr. Manse), the medical officer, said it was absolutely ne- cessary that a person should be provided to cut the children's hair, as they had contracted a disease in the head, which would spread, if their hair were not cut. Referred to the visiting committee. The chairman read the following letter, directed to John Jones, Esq., clerk to the guardians, Pembroke union, from W. G. Lumley, assistant clerk to the poor-law commis- sioners :— Poor-law Commission-Office, Somerset House, 18th January, 1847. Sir,—I am directed by the poor-law commissioners to advert to the observations contained in their circular letters of the 20th of October, and the 4th of December last, with reference to a distinction in the relief to poor persons settled in the parishes where they are relieved, and to other poor persons who have been rendered irremovable from the parish in which they reside, by the operation of the late statute on the subject of the removal of the poor. I am to inquire whether the guardians have made any such distinction in their administration of relief since the passing of the statute, and if so, in what manner that distinction has been made. I am also to request, that if the board of guardians have passed any resolution on the subject of the statute, or of the relief of the poor effected by it, you will transmit a copy of every such resolution. The commissioners request that this information may be supplied to them with as little delay as circumstances will permit. I am, Sir, Your most obedient servant, \V. G. Lumley,assistant-secretary." Mr. Jones, the clerk,stated he had transmitted to the poor- law commissioners the resolutions passed at this board on the subject. The chairman also read another letter from the same quar- ter, directed to John Jones, Esq., clerk to the guardians, Pembroke union, as follows:- Poor-law Commission-Office, Somerset House, "January 28,1847. Sir,- I am directed by the poor-law commissioners to forward to you the following copy of an order of the House of Commons, which has been served upon them and I am to request that you will transmit to this office the information there required, in the accompanying form. I remain, Your most obedient servant, W. G. Lumley, Assistant-secretary. (COPY Of ORDER.) House of Commons, Merctirii, 20 die Januarii, 1847. "Ordered—That there be laid before this house a return, from each poor-law union and parish in England and Wales, of the number of non-resident families, and persons who were in receipt of relief, on the 26th day of August, 1846, distin- guishing those who have since become chargeable to the unions and parishes in which they were residing at that period. (Signed) "J. H. Ley." The return is ordered under the following heads: UNIOS. "Number of non-resident families who were in receipt of relief oil the 26th day of August, 1846. "Total number of persons contained therein, including the heads of such families. Number of such families who have become chargable by the unions or parishes in which they were residing at that period. What number of persons contained therein, including the heads of such families. day of (Signed) Clerk to the Guardians." Ordered—That the relieving officers do immediately fur- nish the clerk with the information require-i, in order that he may fill up the form as required by the order of the House of Commons. Mr. E. Leach said, that in consequence of the present high price of; revisions, he was about to move that the pay to the poor of this union be increased he had a precedent for the object he had in view, he alluded to a resolution of Colonel Wedgewood's, he therefore proposed that in consequence of the present high prices of provisions, the weekly pay of the paupers be increased in such cases where it shall be found necessary, and a similar course to ascertain the same shall be adopted as was pursued on a former motion of Colonel Wedge. wood." Chairman: Colonel Wedgewood's 'notion virtually fell to the ground the paupers for about a month received addi. tior.al relief, but after that time it fell back to the original allowance. Rev J, Allen It is by no means agreeable to my feelings to object to any friend's motion as to the increase of distress I am aware, and it will still increase if the medical and re- lieving officer do not do their duty. I cannot agree to a general increase of the paupers' pay, and however painful it may be to my feelings, I must oppose it. After a lengthened conversation in which the Earl of Caw- dor, Messrs. J. H. Phillips, T. Lewis, Batson, A. Morgan, and J. Thomas took part, the following motion was made by Mr. J. H. Phillips, and seconded by Mr. g Leach :—That in consequence of the late rise in the price of provisions, the relieving officers be instructed to consider specially the amount of relief given to each pauper, and to bring every case before the board, in which they shall deem the present relief inade- quate, which was carried unanimously. No further business of public interest took place, and the board adjourned. As the guardians were leaving the board-room, a poor per- son of the name of Lawless, with a wife and two children in great distress presented themselves to them, and as the case seemed to be urgent, they were immediately relieved by the following gentlemen witfi 2s. 8d.: — Messrs. D. S. Thomas, Batson, Warlow, G. Thomas, and Codd; they were then re- ferred to the relieving officer. At a petty sessions held on Thursday last, at the town-hall, Narbertn, before W. H. Swann, Esq., Rev. J, W. James, and the Rev. R. Buckby.—James Brown, blacksmith, Nar- berth, v. Mr. John Oven, for an assault, fined Is. and costs.—James Mason v. Mr. John Butler, for non-payment of wages. Ord r to pay and costs.-The Narberth North and Crunwear overseers had obtained several summonses against a different parties for non-payment of poor-rate, but not being able to prove that the rates were duly published on the church doors, the cases were all dismissed.—Mr. Keddy, of Green Grove, in the parish of Robeston Wathen, preferred a charge against H. O. Martin, Esq., the magistrates clerk of the hundred, for refusing to fill up a summons against a servant girl of Madam de Bavois, of the said place and parish, for deserting her servitude. Mr. Martin explained, that she was not a servant in husbandry, and consequently did not come under the meaning of the act." Mr. Keddy hereon got very insolent, and was ordered by the chairman to be taken out of court by Mr. Meyrick, the superintendent of police. TENBY.—On the 27th ultimo, the Tenby open ploughing match came oft, about two miles from the town. The judges appointed for awarding the prizes had a difficult job, and did not complete their tesk until after 5 o'clock, when a large num- ber of the farmers and the friends of the agricultural interest adjourned to the Cobourg Hotel, The dinner was served up in that superior style for which the hostess is proverbial. The president, M. Wynne Owen, Esq., was ably supported by J. Bowen, Esq., as vice. On removing the cloth, the usual loyal toasts were drunk, when the judges, Mr. Parsel, of Lydstep, Mr. Lewis, of Norchard, Mr. Gardner, of Scrinkle, and Mr. J. Davies, of Hayes, handed a list to the president nf the ririzes awarded by them.

During the evening, there were a great nnmbfr o! eloqnent speeches delivered, and some good songs sung, which a-ded to beguile the company in passing the Slight, who did ot separate until an early hour in the morning. n One n'ght this week, 20 pigs, t"e property of G. J. Harries. •Isq., of Laninwas, were poisoned. Strong suspicion attaches t > certain parties. F.\T SHEEP.—On Saturday last was sold in Milford mar- ket, the largest and fattest wether-sh.»ep ever exhibited for i sale there. It was purchased by Mr. Thomas Devonalii, butcher, from Mr. William Co'e, of PÎliHwach, and was one of the prize shecp at the Haverfordwest Cattle Show, ill July last. The weight of the carcase was 165 lbs., and it turned out 21 lbs. of fat. CARMARTHENSHIRE V. PEMBROKESHIRE.—A coursing- match C'lme oiT on Monday last, at the Redrose, between thp Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire greyhounds. This match created some excitement in the neighbourhood, and the weather proving propitious, brought hundreds of visitors to witness the field sport. The first and second courses were splendid, and were decided in favor of Pembrokeshire one course in favor of Carmarthen, and three other courses unde- cided, as the judges could not adjudicate. Great numbers of gentlemen from each county partook of an excellent dinner, which did credit to the catering capabilities of the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas. The chair was ably filled by George Goode, Esq., of Carmarthen, and John Phillips, Esq., of Haverfordwest, acted as vice. Several loyal toasts were proposed and duly responded to, and the gentlemen left for their respective counties, in excellent good humor, aud with the kindest feelings towards each other. THE EGLWYSCUMMIN AND KKFFIU ANNUAL PLOUGHING MATCH.—This match was held on Tuesday last. Twenty- six well-appointed ploughs attended in a field belonging to Mr. Jones, of Parke, near Llandowror. The toughness of the ground tested the skill of the ploughmen and the strength of their teams. The weather proving favorable, there was a good field of visitors, watching with interest the exertion used hy the competitors to obtain the prizes. The first prize, of 20s., was awarded to John Evans, ploughman at Pantyibyd; the second prize, l.1s" wasawardeo. to Mr. Richard Raymond, son of Cringa the third prize, 10s., was awarded to John James, ploughman at Pentrehowel; the fourth prize, 7s., was awarded to John Paul, ploughman at Longridge; the fifth prize, 5s., was awarded to Mr. Thomas Howells, of Vaynor and the sixth prize, 2s. 6d., was awarded to David Richards, ploughman at Vaynor. It was observed that better work, performed altogether, was never seen at a ploughing match. Several gentlemen and farmers partook of a good dinner at the Smith's Arms, served in a neat style by the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Davies. George Goode, Esq., of Car- marthen, who is the chief promoter of the above ploughing match, was unanimously called to the chair. The company separated highly delighted with the proceedings of the day. STEEPLE CHASE.—A match came off on the first instant- between a mare, the property of T. R. Thomas, Esq., of Tref". I garn, and a horse, the property of Charles Jones, Esq.. of Llandewy. They started at Tavernspite towards Keffig church, over about four miles of country. The horse proved himself the winner.

Timothy Thomas, Newcastle-Emlvn, delivered a lecture on the nature of a Christian church, and questioned the new minister about his confessions of faith—his call to the ministry and the church -of their choice ano call of him-and his responding to that call, which were fully but briefly replied to.

CARDIGAN UNION.-THE NON-REMOVAL ACT. An extraordinary meeting of the Board of Guardians of the above union was held at the Townhall, Cardigan, on Saturday last, Jan. 30th, for the purpose of petitioning both houses of parliament on the subject of the poor laws. R. D. Jenkins, Esq., solicitor, one of the vice-chairmen, presided, and, in an eloquent, lucid, and argumentative speech, intro- duced the subject for the consiipration of the guardians, con- tending that the poor of this country ought, in justice, to be borne by the nation at targe and commenting on the hard- ships and unequal pressure of the ever-varying and unsettled laws of 8t'ttlement, especially the late act, whidl has heen felt a prolific source of contention and ill-will everywhere. On the motion of Mr. Asa J. Evan«, seconded by Mr, John Jenkins, and supported by Mr. T. Williams, the follow- ing petition was adopted, and directed to be engrossed and addressed to both houses of par'iainent thp. petition to the Commons to be entrusted to D. A. S. Davies, Boq, M.P., the late chairman of the said bo:ird, for presentation, who, as well as the members for the counties of Pembroke and Car- digan, and the Cardiganshire boroughs, he requested to sup- port its prayer:— "To the Right Honorable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled. The humble petition of the Board of Guardians, of the Cardigan Union. Sheweth, that your petitioners, although convinced that it was contemplated hy the legislature that the act, passed in the last sessions of parliament, entitted "An Act to amend the Laws relating to the Removal of the Poor," was passed for the purpose of affording more immediate and satisfactory relief to the poor of this kingdom, beg respectfully to inform your lordships that the act does operate with great hardship upon many of the parishes in the Cardigan union by the im- possition of great, and almost intolerable, additional poor rates, owing to a dense pauper population, many of which paupers were hitherto supported by other parishes, to whom they legally belonged, some of which parishes are almost en- tirely relieved from the support of any poor, without in any respect amending the state and condition of the poor generally. That your petitioners beg most respectfully to inform your lordships, that your petitioners do not consider it just and right that the entire relief of the poor of England and Wales should be imposed only upon property at present liable to the same, whereas other properties equally interested in the maintenance of the national honor of Great Britain are not called upon to contribute towards the same object. Your petitioners therefore humbly implore your lordships to take into your lordships'' serious consideration the pro- priety of amending the law for the relief of the poor in Eng- land and Wales, by causing parochial settlement to be abo- lished, and by substituting a national settlement in lieu there- of, and likewise by causing the poor of England and Wales to be supported out of the consolidated fund of this nation, by means of an additional property tax instead of the present system of poor rates. And your petitioners," &c., &c. CARDIGAN.—On Monday, the 1st inst,, a very large meet- ing was held at the town-hall, upon which occasion David Jenkins, Esq., mayor, presided. The chairman stated the object of the meeting was to receive subscriptions for the purpose of relieving those poor persons who do not obtain parochial relief, oT whom, owing to the inclemency of the season, he was sorry to say, there were a considerable num- ber and he trusted the wealthy would come forward and render their assistance on the occasion. He felt great plea- sure in informing the meeting that Miss Jones, of Kilwendeg, the Rev. Mr. Miles, the owners of the Priory estate, and the Rev. Mr. Morgan, of Cardigan, had severally contributed several pounds.toward the assistance of the poor and distressed, the money being deposited with the respected vicar, the Rev. Griffith Thomas and he trusted his fellow townsmen would come forward and render their assistance in so valuable an object. The Rev. Griffith Thomas stated that, in his various perambulations, he had visited several houses and he found many persons, he was sorry to say, in want of the necessaries of life he had yestesday considered it his duty to mention it in the church, and he hoped that all his parishioners would come forward to assist the distressed. The rev. gentleman then moved a series of cesolutions, which were all agreed to, and a committee appointed, consisting of the following gen- tlemen, who were to solicit subscriptions in the town:—Rev. G. Thomas, vicar, Rev. Daniel Davies, R. D. Jenkins, Esq., Morgan Jenkins, Esq., David Reece, Esq., and Thomas Lloyd, Esq. We are glal to find the above gentlemen have been assiduous in their labors, and have raised a very liberal subscription, which we have no doubt will be property ad- ministered to those who stand in need. CARDIGAN.—On Wednesday last, at the town-hall, before Thomas Lloyd, VV. Owen Brigstocke, John Griffith, and Thomas Wagner, Esquires, county magistrates, upwards of fifty persons, from the country, made applications for war- rants against one John Bowen, well known in the celebrated long-contending law-suit ot the Selby estate, Davies v. Lowndes, which was settled last term, for obtaining various sums of money from them under false pretences. The magis- trates informed them that it was out of their jurisdiction, and their only course to adopt was by ah action at law. ELECTION OF CORONER..—Great bustle is expected in Cardigan in the election for coroner next week, and Thomas George Nugent, Esq.. is the general favorite, and his success is considered certain, in fact it is almost useless of the other candidates proceeding to an election. A Cardigan correspondent informs us that Rebecca mounted on Black Bess, dressed in a dark shirt and with a national scarlet wrapper round her shoulders, visited Mr. Morris, of Daynold, and ordered him to throw out some corn which had been conveyed from the haggard to the barn, by some of a numerous retinue. The peremptory request was immedi- ately obeyed. It is to be hoped that such misguided at- tempts to force corn to market will not be prevalent, other- wise the county will probably be put to great expense in maintaining police or soldiery. ————

LETTER TO THE EDITOR. FA RM ING-SHELTER. SIR,—In the wish to claim for agricultural subjects a larger share of that public attention to which I think them, by their usefulness and interest, justljT entitled, I formerly attacked, in your columns, certain branches of Pembrokeslpre farming, and particularly onr usual rotation of crops which Ipave th land constantly worse, and our ne^thgence in the breeding 01 cattle,. which "leaves their quality always stationary. With- out waiving these points which still appear to me of paramount importance, my present object is to prose a little about one, perhaps, of Ipss interest, but still one connected with the prosperity of stock and crop. We have in our county much land, unproductive in its pre- sent state, very well adapted fori planting, not only in the heights approaching to real mountains, but in those flat bar- ren spaces oddly rolled mountains here, (perhaps from beinp or having been once unenclosed like the genuine mountains,) >ver which the sea breezes stil! blow with unchecked violenc", nipping the tender shoots of corn and trass. How much o' this land is there which yields only stunted furze, briars, histles, and other IIsdrs8: if not hurtful, gmwth ? There an be no doubt certain qnalities of land will pay better under trees than under corn. and a great confirmation of thib is, we see that Scotchmen do plant extensively. But planting on a large scale is expensive, arid the return. f safe, is not quick. VV hat I wish to sugg-n ii the benefit conferred on exposed land hy strips of plantations. We. perhaps, may have seen grass growing up in plenty, in fields between plantations, under the influence of their shelter; such cases certainly occur to me, and even under the trees I have seen annegreen sward mown regularly by the farmer, while, outside of the shelter, the plantations have been sur- rounded by land which could yield but a scanty nibbling to a few half-starved sheep. I will only add as to the mode of planting that, doing it once for all, we should not grudge preparing the ground well by draining w-here needful, and everywhere by deep trenching, which vvill obviate, in some measure, the thinness of the soil, and will also assist the escape of the surface water. Why, then, it may be said, if shelter is useful, do we hear of trees being cut down and removed on model firms 'I What arc removed are trees standing by themselves in hed^e-rows, which afford no shelter adequate to the injury they inflict on corn crops by intercepting the sun and the air, and harboring birds, &c.; besides, in the districts alluded to, there is no such want of shelter as we feel. Then cattle, also, require shelter. Warmth is well known to produce the same fattening result as food the cattle will thrive more under the lee of a thick plantation than exposed on the hills to the pitiless pelting of the storm. Not that such shelter is enough for them sheds for them in every field they are allowed to inhabit in winter would pay. and when people are finding out that sheep, with their woolly coats, fatten quicker and on less food when housed and on boarded floors, surely no farm ought to be without well en- closed yards, and roofing enough to shelter the young cattle, and to get them earlier into some condition yet how seldom do we see such accommodation ? It is a saying in Belgium, that a cow at grass eats with five mouths. I have always thought that not only for the good of the land, but for that of the stock, the housing of them ought to be more extensively practised than it is. I am, sir, Your obedient servant, Q.

The Teeth, it is well known to Physiologists, are com- posed of bony structure, which is covered with a coating of enamel—a substance of a fibrous nature, and so hard as to strike fire with a steel. Notwithstanding its appa- rent hardness, the enamel is, however, extremely suscep- tible of injury, and it thus becomes highly important to ascertain what preparations are best adapted to preserve so important a substance in its pristine integrity and beauty. "We do not hesitate to recommend from expe- rience DELCROIX'S ODONTO, or the Queen's own Dentifrice,-as the most valuable means of purifying, pre- serving, and embellishing the Teeth and Gums hitherto offered to the Public."—Court Gazette.

(Strange.)—fn this age of pretension, when the privileges of the true are constantly usurped by the false and the ignorant, it is ditfi- cull to afford the sufferer from nervous debility, the un- e'-irng means of judgment where to seek relief. The au- thois of this work have obviated the difficulty. Their long experience and reputation in the treatment of these painful diseases is the patient's guarantee, and well de- serves for the work its immense circulation."— Era. The numberless instances daily occurring wherein affection of the lungs, putting on all the outward appear- ances of consumptioon-whkh, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful ha- bits-fully prove that the principle of the division oflabor is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice; and we feel no hesitation in saying, that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a parent, a preceptor, or a clergyman."—Sun Evening paper. "To the married, as well as the unmarried, this little work alike affords consolation and cure in peculiar cases, and we are doing a service to society in recommending it to general notie—Fmtx and H< rts Mercury. "Curtis on Manhood. (Strange.)—A perusal of thi- work will easily distinguish its talented authors from the host of medical writers whose pretensions to cure all dis- eases are daily so indecently thrust before the public. Having for many years been the standard work on these diseases, its originality is apparent, and its perusal breathes consolation and hope t) the mind of the patient."—Naval and Military Gazette. "Curtis on Manhood should be in the hands of youth and old age. It is a medical publication, ably written, and developes the treatment of a class of painful maladies which has too long been the prev of the illiterate and the designing."— United Service Gazette. Messrs. Curtis and Co. are to be consulted daily nt their residence, No. ï, Frith-street, Soho-square, London. Country patients are requested to be as minute as pos- sible in the detail of their cases. The communication must be accompanied by the nsu u con»nltation-fee of £ 1, and in all cases the most inviolable secrecy may bt relied )(1.
