WOMAN IN AFFLICTION.—Nothing can be more touching than to behold a soft and tender female, who had been all weakness and dependence, while treading the prosperous paths of life, suddenly rising in mental force to be the comforter and support of her husband Under misfortune, and abiding with unshrinking firmness the bitterest blasts of adversity. As the vine, which has long twined its graceful foliage about the oak, and has been lifted by it in the sunshine, will, when the hardy plant is rifted by the thunderboJt, cling round it with its caressing tendrils, and bind up the shattered boughs so it is beautifully ordered by Providence, that woman, who is the mere dependant and ornament of man in his happier hours, should be his stay and solace when smitten with sudden calamity. I have observed that a married man falling into misfortune is more apt to retrieve his situation in the world than a single one, partly because he is more stimulated to exertion by the necessities of the helpless and beloved beings who depend on him for subsistence, but chiefly because his spirits are soothed and relieved by domestie endearments, and his self-respect kept alive by finding that, though all abroad is darkness and humiliation, yet there is still a little world of love at home, of which he is the monarch; whereas a single man is apt to run to waste and self-neglect— to fancy himself alone and abandoned, and his heart to fall to ruin, like some deserted mansion, for the want of an inhabitant. THE ARTFUL DODGE.—A TRUE STORY. Some years since, a man of drab, who exercised the vocation of tailor at Philadelphia, was im1)osed upon by an adroit scoundrel, who contrived to get a suit of clothes on credit, and afterwards eloped without paying for them. The Quaker was too poor to lose the debt; but, like too many others of his cloth, he had apparently no other alternative. The account was placed on his books, and soon forgotten. Some years afterwards his attention was attracted to this account, and an odd thought suggested itself. I'll try an experiment," said he to himself; II perhaps I may succeed in catching the rogue and getting my pay." He immediately prepared an advertisement, in substance as follows, which he inserted in the Philadelphia Gazette:— If J C-, who was in Philadelphia about the month of in the year 1795, will send his address to the editor of this paper, he may hear of something to advantage- Printers in the neighbouring States are requested to copy." The latter clause was inserted from a vague suspicion that the rogue had taken up his abode in New York. Having instructed the editor not to disclose his name to the rogue, if he should call, but to request the latter to leave his address, the Quaker patiently awaited the result of his expe- riment. In a short time he was informed by a note from the ptinter, that the individual alluded to in the advertisement having arrived from New York, might be found at a given place in the city. The tailor lost no time in preparing a transcript of his ac- count, not forgetting to charge interest from the time the debt was incurred. Taking a constable with him, who bore a legal process suited to the occasion, he soon arrived at the lodgings of the swindler. The constable was instructed to stand off at a little distance till a signal should indicate the time for him to approach. The Quaker now rang the bell, and when the servant ap- peared, requested him to inform the gentleman of whom be was in search, that a friend wished to speak to him at the door. The man obeyed the summons, and soon both debtor and creditor were looking each other in the face. How dost thou do?" kindly inquired the Quaker, Per- haps thou dost not know me ?" I believe Lhave not the pleasure of your acquaintance," politely ansvdp our hero. Dost thouTCmember puichasing a suit of clothes several years ago of a poor tailor, and forgetting to pay for them?" asked the Quaker. ? no," said the gentleman, blushing slightly yon must be mistaken in the person. It cannot be me you wish to find." Ah John! I know thee very well. Tuou art the very man I wished to see. Thou hast on at this moment the very waistcoat that I made for thee. Thou must acknowledge it was of good stuff and well made, or it could not have lasted thee so long." 0 yes," said the gentleman, appearing suddenly to recol- lect himself; I do remember now the circumstances to which you allude. Yes, yes-I had intended to can and settle that bill before leaving Philadelphia, and you may depend on my doing so. I have come here to take possession of a large amount of property which bas fallen to me by will. See here is the advertisement which apprised me of my good fortune." Here he handed to the Quaker a New York paper, contain- ing a copy of the advertisement whose history we have given above- The Quaker looked at it with imperturbable gravity, and continued — Yes, I see thou art in lurk but as my demand is a small one, I think J must insist on payment before thou comest in possession of thy large estates." Tbe proper signal here brought the coostsble iDto the presence of the parties. The swindler was particularly astonished at the appearance of this functionary, who im- mediately began to execute his part of the drama. "What!" exclaimed the rogue in an angry tone; "you surely haven't sued me ? Yes, I have," replied the Quaker; and thou should'st be thankful that nothing worse has happened to thee." Come in, then," said the debtor, finding himself fairly caught; come in, aud I will pay you if I must." The three went into the house together, and the slippery gentleman having ascertained the amount of the bill, paid it in full. The I Ailor having signed the receipt, placed it into the bands of hn Sate creditor, with feelings such as may be readily imagined. Tbe swindler took it, and Jor tbe first tÜJle gianced at thé various Hems (If which it wa. composed. He said nothing till he came to the last charge, which was for adver- tising'' when be broke forth— ♦Halloo! what's this? For advertising t' That's an odd charge in a tailor's bill. You're cheating me!" II, no," coolly replied 'he Quaker; that is all right. I havp charged thee the cost of publishing the advertisement which thou hast just s! owed me. H»re the swindler uUered a horrid oath, as he demanded, Do you mean to say that you caused the publication of that advertisement ? "Truly, I did," replied the Quaker with most provoking coolness, You told a lie in it," quickly retorted the rogue. Convince me of that," said the Quaker; and thou wilt find me ready to confess the fault." t You said I should hear something to my advantage if I would come here." Thou art mistaken," immediately responded the Quaker; I only promised that thou shouldst hear of something to advantage and is it not to the advantage of a poor tailor to collect an old debt ? 4 .1 If I can catch you in the street," said the swindler with an oath, and in the deepest rage, fit give you such a cow- hiding as will not leave the breath in your hody." Nonsense, now," said the Quaker, "if thoo really in- tensest to do anything of that sort, we hatt better step out into the t>ack yard and finish the business at once." The rogue was completely non-plused by the coolness of the Quaker, and stood speechless anu almost petrified. Now," said the tailor, good-naturedly, "let me give thee a piece of advice. When next thou hast occasion to get a suit of clothes, ihou had t better not attempt to cheat the poor tailor, but p*y him honestly, for then will thy conscience not disturb th ee, aud thy sleep will be sweet and refreshing. 1 Farewell There is no doubt of the literal truth of this story, as we I received it some time siace from the Jip4 oi the Quaker bitt- ftp#

CARDIFF POLICE.—MONDAT. l Before H. Morgan and Whitlock Nicholl, Esqrs.] OBSTRUCTING THB PAVEMENT.—Mr. John Lee, fishmonger and fruiterer, St. Mary-street, Cardiff, was charged by Superin- tendent Stockdale with having obstructed the public way in that street in front of his (Mr. Lee's) house, by placing and exposing for sale upon the pitching a quantity of herrings. Superin- tendent Stockdale cautioned Mr. Lee on the 30th and 31st ult., and requested him to remove the fish; but his request had not been attended to, as the fish were there this morning.—Mr. Lee: Other people got their goods out alongside of me.—Mr. Morgan: That is no excuse. Because one man does wrong, that is no reason you should do wrong also.—Supeirntendent Stoekdale I spoke to several parties, Sir, in this street, and they all, except Mr. Lee, moved their goods away but after- wards, perceiving that he persisted in exposing his goods upon the pavement, they brought theirs back again. That is the reason.—Mr. Lee: Why should I be punished any more than those parties1-Mr. Morgan: You may lodge a complaint against them, if you please but it is no answer to this charge to say that other people offend in a manner similar to what you have done. [This conversation was kept up for some time.] Ulti- mately, Mr. Lee was convicted in the penalty of five shillings, exclusive of five shillings costs. The magistrates said they might have fined him £2; but, in the hope that he wculd not offend similarly in future, a heavier penalty would not upon this occasion be imposed. AttSACM COMMITTED IN ST. JOHN'S CHORCH. Edward Jenkins, cabinet-maker, and landlord of the Cefn- mably Arms (or Tennis Court), was charged with having assaulted Christopher Edmund Knox, grocer, and clerk to Henry Morgan, Esq.. on Sunday evening last, in the parish Church of St. John's, Cardiff. The principals in this case met accidentally, we presume, in the magistrates' room—Jenkins to prefer a charge of assault against Knox, and Griffith Williams, baker. Quay-street; and Knox and Griffith Williams to prefer a similar charge against Jenkins. However, just as Mr. Morgan entered the room, he informed Jenkins that a charge of assault had been preferred against him, to which he must give an answer. At this time the second magistrate (Mr. Nicholl) had not arrived; but upon his arrival the case was heard, and the following is a correct report of the evidence on both sides:— Christopher Edmund Knox examined.—I have to prefer a charge against Edward Jenkins for assaulting me in St. John s Church, at ten minutes or a quarter before six, yesterday evening. I hold a seat in the Church by the permission of, and from, Charlotte Sinclair, who is the owner of the seat. I sit there regularly. I went yesterday evening to Church, as usual, and found Edward Jenkins and his two little boys in the pew; I had repeatedly cautioned him that he had no business in that pew. I then went into the higher end of the pew—passed him by on going. I did not say any thing to him at that time. He (attempted to prevent my passing with his hand. He got up and laid hold of me by the collar, and told me I should not go up there. Then Griffith Williams came into the same pew, when Jenkins immediately got up—took hold of him, and thrust him out Then he took hold of me by my stock in front, and tore it all to pieces. [Stock produced.] These are the fragments in my hand. He did not succeed in getting me out. He made use of very abusive language. He was trying to do all he could to make me commit a breach of the peace. All this was before the evening service began; but he partly treated me in that way during the morning service. That is the whole of my com- plaint with regard to the assault. I think my life is in danger, and I wish him to be bound over to keep the peace. He has threatened mt. Defendant having been asked the usual question, .C whether he wished to put any questions to witness," said—" No but I deny the assault. I came here to apply for a summons against him and Griffith Williams. I have a witness—the sexton of the Church-who will prove that they assaulted me, and of which I came here to complain. f Griffith Williams examined: I was in St. Johns Church yesterday evening, and went to sit in the seat I usually occupy. That seat is taken by me. When I went into it I was interfered with by Edward Jenkins, who told me 1 had no right in it. He began to push me out. He did push me out. I went in again and pushed him out, considering that it was my seat. He had a heavy stick in his hand with a large head to it weighing four pounds, as nearly as I can judge. He held that stick over Mr. Knox, and said that if he would not go out of the seal he (Jen- kins) would lay him (Knox) down with it. I saw him take hold of Mr. Knox's collar. What Mr. Knox has just stated is quite correct. Jenkins called him a murderer and everything that could be thought of. I complain of his turning me out of the seat. He turned me out, and then I turned him out with great force. I did not think any man would behave as he did, and I was forced to use my strength to turn him out. I con- sider that I was in danger of my life. I took the stick from him. He swore in the church that "he would certainly finish me this very day. Mr. Knox: The women interfered and Jenkins went into another pew. A great many other remarks were made of rather an unim- portant nature, having reference to the right to the pew," after which Edward Jenkins made a statement to the following effect, being his version of the affairM The seat adjoining this seat belongs to our family, who have been in the habit of sitting in it for a number of years. The seat that Miss Sinclair now claims is part of a seat that originally belonged to my grand- father, and from which seat the one in dispute was partitioned off. My grandfather gave permission to Billy Watkins, who lived near the Town Hall, to sit in it. Mrs. Watkins gave Miss Sinclair liberty to sit in this seat, and she now claims it. Some time ago when I went to church, the seat I intended sitting in was full, and I was shown into this pew; since which I have sat in it upon several occasions. Upon a recent occasion when I was in the seat, Mr. Knox, who was also in it told me he had taken the seat of Miss Sinclair, and he thought I had no right in it. I told him that I did not think Miss Sinclair had any right to let it to him or to any body else, because the seats were not private property—that no one had a right to put a lock on a seat. However, he told me again I had no right to go into that seat, and I went to the Rev. Mr. Stacey about, it and asked him. He told me that no one had a right to reserve a seat in the parish church and no one had a right to put a lock upon a seat. I asked him then—* Am I at Uberty, Sir, to go into that seat if no one else is there 1' Cer- tainly,' said he, you may; but, on the other hand, if you know any seat wherein any family have for a number of years sat at divine service, it would not be well for you to go and distutb tnem.* I said I would not do so by any means; and then I mentioned to him the dispute respecting this seat. He said I had as great a right to go there as any one else if the seat was unoccupied at the time. I went to church yesterday morning, and Mr. Knox came into the seat. I said nothing to him; but he said to me—' What business have you in this seat.' He then went on—called me a murder- ing that he would lock the seat—and a great deal more, I told him to recollect he was in the House of God that I would have no quarrelling there and that what he had to say to me might be said in another place and upon another day. He rose my temper I must admit; and I said I would not keep from the seat, but would sit there in the evening. I went in the evening with my little boys, when Mr. Knox came in, shoved by me, and went to take my little boy from where he was. I pre- vented him with my hand. This man (Griffith Williams) then came, and both of them came at me and caught me by the col- lar and dragged me out. Other persons oame there then and begged of me not to quarrel. When I went into the seat I bolted the door with the small bolt that is inside. When Mr. Knox came there he came over the seat into it, opened the door, and then they both seized hold of me together. Edmund Rees, pew opener (a young man of respectable ap- pearance), having bean referred to by defendant, he was sent for, and examined as follows:—" I was in the church yesterday evening, and saw the dispute between these parties. Mr. Morgan.—Did yop. see the commencement of it ? I did. Mr. Morgan.—Now will you tell us what was the first thing you saw 1 Well, the first thing of all that I saw was this — as soon as they had gone together in the seat they (Knox and Williams) took hold of Jenkins by the collar and pulled him out. Mr. Morgan.—I do not think you could have seen the com- mencement if that was the first thing you saw. Edmund Rees—Yes, Sir, I did. I saw them in the morning looking as if they were quarrelling; but nothing occurred before what I have described in the evening. Mr. Kn°x.—What this witness is speaking of took place at the end of the quarrel, the last thing that occurred; I have given you the whole from the commencement. Edmund Rees.—I saw the commencement and the latter end of it. I saw the whole of it from beginning to end, because I saw Mr. Jenkins come into church at about ten minutes to six: and I saw MI. Knox come in about five minutes afterwards. When he (Mr. Knox) came in he inquired of me who was in the seat. I told him. He then went out of church, and fetched Mr. Williams. In about ten minutes afterwards they came in. went to the seat, took hold of Jenkins by the collar, and both of them dragged him out. Mr. Jenkins.—I put the bolt as usual to fasten the door, in order that it might not incommode persons passing up the aisle. Certainly I did not rise up to open it when Mr. Knox came in, as probably I ought to have done; and, therefore, he went into the next seat, and got over the sides of it into the seat where I was. He then opened the door. During the morning service he took my son from his place in the seat and threw him down. Mr. Knox denied having done so irftentionally; and explained that as Mr. Griffith Williams's daughter wanted room, the seat being crowded, he had taken hold of the little boy in order to move him a little. Edmund Rees—I saw no scuffle before the two parties came in and took hold of Mr. Jenkins. The Magistrates.—Then you could not have seen the com- mencement, unless Mr. Knox and Mr. Williams have forsworn themselves, a conclusion which we cannot arrive at for a moment. Mr. Jenkins.—That they have, gentlemen, I assure you. This man (Williams) has just sworn that I had a stick in my hand, the head of which would weigh four pounds, Mr. Williams denied that he had said so: but the magistrates believed he had said something of the kind." Mr. Whitlock Nicholl.—It strikes me that Rees could not have seen the whole. Edmund Rees.—I was there, Sir, from the very beginning. I saw Mr. Knox come in, upon which he came to me and asked me who was in the seat. After I hatttold him he went out to letch Mr. Williams. Mr. Griffith Williams.—No he did not fetch me: he met me. Edmund Rees: Well, I know I saw you both enter the Church together—go to the seat. and catch hold of Jenkins by the collar, and turn him out. Mr. Jenkins: I came here, early enough as I thought, to have a summons against them for the assault, never dreaming that they had had a summons first against me. At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Knox admitted, in reply to the magistrates' clerk, that he had entered the pew in the manner described by Mr. Jenkins—uainely, by clambering over the sides. He added —" 1 was the last person in the pew in the morning, and when I left it 1 locked it. 1 unlocked it in the evening." A desultory conversation then ensued, from which (among other things) we gathered that Mr. Knox and Mr. Williams claim a right to the pew by virtue of some agreement with Miss Sinclair (a non-resident), and that they view Mr. Jenkins as an interloper. The result of the enquiry was that the magistrates convieted Jenkins in the penalty of five shillings, exclusive of costs; and, in default of payment, ordered that he should be imprisoned for seven days. Paid. STEALING A CASK.—Mr. Williams, of the Brewery, said he had discovered that one of his casks had beeu in the possession of a person who had recently entered upon the brewery business, & who had sent it out with beer to a publican, to whom, in the cask in question, he (Mr. Williams) had formerly sent a supply of beer. He had taken possession of the cask; and now wished to know what his remedy was against all the parties concerned. The brewer had called at his (Mr. Williams's) counting-house, and had said that the publican had lent him the cask." Mr. Williams disbelieved that statement; and thought the publican had sold it. He could swear to the cask by the number upon it.—The magistrates thought they could not assist Mr. Williams, in the matter. The parties complained against had certainly behaved ill, but they had not committed felony. MABKBT TOLLS. Mr. Loughor, fanner, made a complaint against Mr. Gooden for having, on Saturday, seized a bag con- taining turnips. Mr. Gooden admitted having done so, but said that he could not get his tolls. It was then explained that on Saturday week four women had requested Mrs. Loughor to bring on last Saturday four bags of turnips, for which she was to receive a certain price. The turnips were brought—depo- te irJjiclj Mr« OoyfleB flgamflgd the usual tolls-eight pence for the four sacks, Mr. Loughor re- fused to pay the money, inasmuch > s the turnips were sold a week before they entered the town of Cardiff; whereupon Mr. Gooden seized one of the sacks of turnips and retained posses- sion of it. The women to whom the turnips had been sold said they had paid Mr. Gooden the toll. He admitted that they had paid him certain sums for their places of standing" in the market, but denied that the money so paid was in liquidation of his claim upon Mr. Loughor. We believe the magistrates had no jurisdiction in the matter and the affair may possibly be determined in a court of law. [Before H. Morgan, Esq., and the Rev. J. Evans.] MATRIMONIAL QUARKELS.—The powerlessness of females over their own fate after marriage cannot be observed without regret. They have much influence, no doubt, in many cases and may either bring misery where there would otherwise be none, or avert much that would otherwise come: still, there are many cases where the tendencies of the husband are so decidedly eVii, that no merit on the part of the wife may be of avail against them. Once a woman has taken the irretrievable step of mar- riage, her lot is identified with that of another being, who may. voluntarily or involuntarily, drag her down to sorrow and infamy, without her being in the least ab'e to stay their course. To persons not in the habit of attending police courts it is almost incredible from what a variety of circumstances mar- riages may prove unhappy; but we believe it will be proved, in by far the majority of cases, that the husband is somehow or other the cause of the evil; as a wife is no more likely to mar domestic felicity than a bird is to pull her own nest to pieces. This morning Cornelius Hails, landlord of the Jolly Mariners beer-house, Great Frederick-street, was again brought up. charged with having violently beaten his wife, and with having disturbed the public peace, by breaking the windows of the house he resides in. It was only on Thursday he was discharged out of custody for having beaten his wife and broken 53 panes of glass in his house. Upon that occasion his wife did not come forward against him, and he was dismissed, promising to behave better for the future. However, that very night he conducted himself as violently as ever, so that the police were necessarily- called in, and eventually took him into custody—he having pre • viously broken nine panes of glass with a large bludgeon which was produced in court. The magistrates in this instance com- pelled the wife to come forward and give evidence against him. She did so very reluctantly and having been sworn, said that on the evening in question her husband had not ill-used her. Perceiving that her affection for her husband prompted her to screen him, the magistrates put no further questions to her, but examined P. S. Aubrey, who said:—" At the desire if this woman I went to her husband's house (Cornelius Hails). He was in the parlour, breaking the things across the room—break- ing the pints. I went in and told him to be quiet, as he was my prisoner. She gave him into my custody. He then walked up to the cupboard, upon which she told me to be aware, that he was looking for a knife. He then turned towards her, and said—' D n your blood, I will be the murderer of you to night. I will wash my hands in your blood!' Then I again interfered and said to him, • I take you in charge!' He was conveyed to the station-house."—Hails admitted that he had been violent, but protested that his wife had exasperated him.—The magistrates told him that nothing could justify his conduct towards his wife and that their decision was that he should forthwith be called upon to find sureties to keep the peace, and be of good behaviour for the term of six calendar months—himself in the sum of £ 50 and twogjheTS in the sums of £ 25 each in default of doing so he woumbe committed to prison for the said term, or until he entered into the required sureties. Upon hearing the magistrate's decision, Hail's wife, "with all that characteristic fondness of faithful woman," evinced the greatest concern and left the room with the view of procuring, if possible, the required sureties—a matter which probably may be attended with difficulty, as they are strangers in this town. ASSAULT.—Martha Griffiths, wife of David Griffiths, painter, Great Frederick-street, was convicted in the penalty of one shilling, exclusive of costs, for having assaulted her sister-in-law. Mary Griffiths, in the market-place on Saturday week. The principals in this case were young women of the most interest- ing and respectable appearance and the affair was the result of some family disturbance. That a slight assault (a slap with the open hand), was committed by Mrs. Griffiths, seemed established beyond a doubt; but it also appeared equally clear that Miss Griffiths had given very considerable provocation; and the magistrates seemed to be of this opinion, for they inflicted the almost nominal penalty of one shilling; which sum, with the costs, was instantly paid, and the fair disputants left the court. The complaint of Catherine Randall against Anne Arthur was dismissed.

SOUTH WALES RAILWAY. The first ordinary meeting of the Proprietors, as required by the Acts of Parliament, was held at,one o'clock on Friday, the 31st uIt., at the Great Western Station, Paddington, C. Russell, Esq., M.P., in the chair. The Secretary, Mr. Armstrong, read the fflvertisement of the meeting,which, besides the general business for which it was convened, stated that it was also held for the purpose of giving authority to the Directors, with respect to any agreements with other Companies, and applications to Parliament which they might think it expedient to make in the ensuing session. The Chairman then addressed the meeting as follows :— Gentlemen, The directors of the South Wales Railway have great pleasure in meeting their proprietors (though the at- tendance is certainly not very numerous on this their first occasion of assembling together), and congratulating them on the success which has hitherto attended their operations. Our proceedings in parliament were as short and inexpensive as we could reasonably have expected from a project of this great magnitude. Some unexpected opposition we certainly had to encounter; but I think we have not any reason to re- gret this, as it gave us an opportunity of setting forth the great value and importance of our undertaking. We have reason to know that the project was duly appreciated by the committees of both houses of parliament, to whose investiga- tion it was submitted. The great difficulty we had to encounter proceeded from the Admiralty, in reference to our passage of the Severn. It was impossible for the committees of the Houses of Lords and Commons to resist the authority which is vested in that board by law but they did all they could do they gave us our line complete, with the exception of that portion embracing the passage of the Severn, which was re- served fOT co"8iden.tioD in the Dext session of parliament. That question has since had the deliberate consideration of your directors. We continue of 'he opinion that we alw <y* entertained, that the place which we selected forcrossiug the Severn was in all respects the nou desirable. We believe that it would not only have been bentficial to ours Ives, b>it that by means of it we might have improved the navigation of the Severn itself. But it was not for us to impugn the judg- ment or the authority invested by law in the Admiralty. The directors have lately been again in communication with the Board of Admiralty on this subject, and I may state we are not without hopes that some plan may be devised by which we shall be enabled to carry out our project at the spot we originally wished. Perhaps it would be desirable that we should not, on this occasion, enter more largely into the dis- cussion of this question, as such a course might cause us some embarrassment; and as I am sure you will be disposed to place confidence in the vigilauce ad dtscretion of your directors (hear, hear), I do not tnink it is necessary to re- quire of our engineer, at this moment, a report upon any of Ol1r engineering works. Since oUr act was passed he has been employed in making his levised surveys of the line. The revised survey of a line J30 or 140 miles in length, yon must be aware, is a very laborious under- taking but it is a labour which amply repays itself, for if the line be correctly set out in the first instance, much expense and much error are afterwards saved. These revised surveys, I understand from Mr. Brunei, are nearly completed, and immediately they are completed we shall cuter into our contracts, and proceed with our works with the utmost diligence and rapidity. The attention of your directors has, of course, been called to the numberless projects for new lines which have been cast, as it were, as a net over the prin- cipality of Wales. It is not to be exuected that any very considerable portion ot these lines will be entertaiued, much less permitted to be made. by the legislature. From the mass of them we have selected such as we think connect them- selves most advantageously with the South Wales Railway, and we have expressed our willingness to enter into fiiendly relations with and give thcm aa the support in our power. The Hereford, Worcester, and Gloucester line, and the Here- ford and Shrewsbury line* are clearly lines that wi! 1 be of great importance to the South Wales Company, as conveying their traffic to the north of England. With these companies we have entered imo an understanding that we shall con- tinue on the most friendly terms, and that we shrill give to them our cordial co-operaiion and support in parliament. With the Forest of Dean Company we had entered inio an agreement to purchase the line in the event of our act passiag, The act having now passed the agreement becomes binding upon us, aud wesbait of course purchase that railway. It is our intention to enlarge aud improvp it, so that the utmost amount of mineral produce may be brought over our line. We have thought it desirable to suppoit a line of ihevalleyof Neath. It is far from improbable that a line of railway will also be made from the head of the Valley of Neath, to join the Hereford, Worcester, and Gloucester line, passing by j Merthyr Tydvil, and Abergavenny, in order to afford railway accommodation to that large mineral and manuf"ctllrm" district. If this intermediate company shall be able to make arrangements with those companies at tueir two extrciniiies the Valley of Neath, and the Hereford, Worcester, and Gloucester Companies—the South Wales riailway Company will also be disposed to give it their utmost support 1 believe these are the only lines with which we have formed any cou- nection whatever. In the present state of the money market and tbe railway market, we thought it most wise and most judi- cious not to entft into any exteusive liabilities by tije purchase to canals, railways, or any properly of that sort, with the single exception of the Forest of Dean Railway. Vie tbluk tbat if a time of difficulty in the money market should arrive, we shall have a greater certainty of being able to carry out our own projects by keeping our own resources unencumbered, for the present at least, with any fresh or subsidiary under- takings. Gentlemen, 1 am not aware that it is ncc:ess»ty I should trespass any longer on your attention on this'ijMjMon. I will uow call upon the »ecretary to read the iepott. The secretary then read the following report: — The directors -tppointed by the act of incorporation have much pleasur.* at this the firs: gi ner") meeting of the Sou. ) Wales Railway Company (in cangratu>a'-i'.tg the proprietor- on the successful isvie of their applica'ioa to Parliament las. session for a bili to authorise tho construction of tbi* i'iaportau- line.

Your engineers have been actively occu- pied in making the detailed and revised aurveys of the line. Their preliminary arrangements are now nearly complete; and measures are about to be adopted for entering into the ne- cessary contracts and commencing the works. Your directors cannot conclude their report without offering their congratu- lations to the proprietors on their pi esp-nt very encouraging position, arising from the every day more favourable prospect of this railway, beine the means of effecting a complete de- velopment of the mineral resources of South Wales. On the motion of the chairman, seconded by Mr. Roch, the report was unanimously received and adopted. In answer t" a question of a proprietor who had entered the room jnst before the reading of the report, the chairman repeated his explanations with regard to the Severn, and hii full opinion that it would be imprudent to discuss the matter further at present. Mr. Blakemore, M.P. (who sat behind the table amongst the directors) said this question of crossing 'he Severn was so important that, although he was far from wishing to emharass the directors, he thought that further explanations ought to he given regarding a question which affected so deeply the in e- rests not only of the proprietors, but those also of the district through which it passed. Large sum* of money had been spent in the improvement of the Severn, 'o the extent of £180,000. He bad the honour of being one of the commis- sioners of that river, and he had the pleasure of stating that the improvements had been carried out to the greatest possible advantage. It was felt, however, that these improvements in the upper parts of the river would be useless if any inju- rious interference took pjace in the lower part, and the pian proposed by the South Wales Company had accordingly en- gaged the earnest attention of the commissioners. Every thing was looked npon with a prejudiced eye, but he was happy to say that after full consideration these prejudices had been removed, and the commissioners were satisfied that the navi- gation of the Severn would not be injuriously affected. (Hear, bear, hear.) With everydeference to the Board of Admiralty, and although he was of opinion that parties who were respon- sible should be attended to. he must say, that in his opinion the decision of the Admiralty in the last session was pre- mature. The honourable gentleman proceeded at some length to contend that it was highly desirable that the progress of the negocia"on should be known, in order that the many other schemes projected in that district might be checked or encou- raged according as circumstances might require. He con- cluded, by expressing his full approval of the report, and his confidence in the integrity and zeal of the directors. -The meeting pissed the following resolutions:— That the Register of Proprietors now produced be authentica- ted by the Common Seal of the Company. That the following be appointed the Directors of this Com- pany for the ensuing year :— James Alston, Esq.; David Arthut'Saunders Davies, Esq., M.P.; Sir Josiali John Guest, Bart., M.P.; David Lewis, Esq.; Stephen Lewis, Esq.; David Morris. Esq., M.P.; Col. Hugh Owen; Archibald F, Paull, Esq.; Robert Saunders, Esq.; Louis Vigurs, Esq.; Lord Viscount Villiers, M.P.; John Henry Vivian, Esq., M.P. That the sum of £1,800 per annum be assigned as the remu- neration for the Directors, to be apportioned in such manner as they may determine. That Bonamy Dobrep. Esq., and Abel Lewis Gower, Esq., be the Auditors for the year ensuing, and that they be paid a salary of £25 each for their services. That the Secretary be paid JE700 a year for his services, from the time of his engagement by the Directors. That the Agreements entered into by the Directors of this Company for the conditional purchase of the Forest of Dean, or Bullo Pill Railway, and o&the rights of certain Toll-owners con- nected with the same, ba Wnfirmed. That the Directors be1', and they are hereby empowered to take such measures as may seem to them expedient, to apply to Parliament in the next Session, either in their own names separately, or conjointly with other Companies or persons, for any extensions, deviations, branches, or other lines by or in connection vith this company, and to purchase or lease such existing or contemplated lines as they may consider will prove beneficial to the South Wales Railway Company, or for amend- ment of the powers already conferred by Parliament on this Company. The Chaiiman (in answer to questions by Mr. Blakemoce) stated that they had purchased the Forest of Dean line for £90,000, and certain toll'rights attached to it for f 20,000 more. This was at the rate of sixteen years' purchase on the net income, taking the average of five years, the receipts gra- dually augmenting. Mr. Blakemore again urged the propriety of some further explanation. At present the South Wales line stopped at Chepstow, and it was by no means clear whether they would be permitted o cross the Severn. If this should not be per- mitted, was it ntended to complete the communication through the inland tovns of Monmouthshire, or was this to be left to other parties 'i The Chairnan must again deprecate all discussion at pre- sent on this subject; at the toarae time he might say, that the directors woull not be so remiss as to leave the link between the South Wiles and Great Western Railways incomplete, and the public might rest assured that that link would be sup- plied by this company. Mr. Blakemore contended that any delay would only tend to strengthen other parties. The Chairman would assure the honourable gentleman that there should be no delay. After the resolutions had been duly carried, on the motion of Mr. Louis Vigurs, a vote of thanks to the chairman was unanimously passed, and suitably acknowledged, and the meeting broke up after a sitting 01 three-quarters of an hour.

I IRELAND.—The Times Commissioner continues his nsefut tetters on the state of Ireland and its causes but we have not thought it necessary to keep up a running notice of communications that go over a great deal of beaten ground; which is no doubt necessary to a com- plete view, and not inconvenient with the broad space of a daily paper, hut very unsuitable for the partial extracts which we can transfer to our columns once a wck. In a letter from Limerick, the Commissioner throws some new light on the popular complaint, that the tenant's improve- ments only draw upon him a rise of rent: it is shom^hat it is stiN his interest to improve—" In conversing vflHthe tenants in almost any part of Ireland where I hl^Pyet been, the usual comptaints are against high rents, want of tenure, and want of encouragement on the part of the landlords- It you ask a tenant who is loud in these com- plaints, and who is evidently steeped in poverty, and who therefore 'PParently has truth to back bioi, why he leaves one-halt ">s farm undratned, untrenched, unimproved, and in the most wretched state lIf cultivation, you are quite certain to be met with the reply, 'Sure, who should I im- prove for • My landlord would raise my rent directly; and it I C0.UJ n°t pay it, he would turn me out, and another would get my farm that I bad improved. Sure, wouldn't I be ruining myself by improving, and only benefiting'he landlord ?' Not only have I continually heard this from the tenants, but soores of times from the Roman Catholic priests, who surely ought to know better. Oiten and often I have tried to convince them in vain of the truth ot that common sum in arithmetic that three and two make fiye that if the tenant, by improving his land, can make it yield a profit of £5 the acre where it yielded no profit at all before-and taking them on their own ground, and supposing the worst, that the landlord did immediately raise their rent from 5s. tojM an acre— stilt,if they pot a balance of £3 in their pockets bl the improve- ment, it'8 clearly their advantage to improve, even though that which they seem so terribly afraid of should take place, and their hard landlords (assuming them to be such) should increase their rentals, and profit £2 by the improvement' It may be of advantage to point this clearly oat, and to prove the fact by li gures and evidence. In one of my early letters from Donegal, relating to a piece of land at Pettlgo, I showed that a piece of land, which before was worthless, on being properly cultivated left a profit ot £8 Per auoum on an average ot three years. Deduct the most exorluUint rent you please, or which any landlord "ould have j/fe conscience to impose, from this, say £3 an acre, still you have the tenant putting £5 a year into his pocket over and above the rent, as the reward of his improvement, Irotnland which was worth nothing to him. [This position is further strengthened by an ample citation of figures and calculations derived from real transactions.] On passing through the county of Clare to this town, L-merick,] j |,a(j the opportunity of seeing some judicious tupnweinenis which have been effected by Mr. David John Wilson, of Belvoir, on his estate, in draining and subsoinng, and in building for his tenantry a better description ot cottage. This gentleman, though spending from j?40Q'to £ 50o a year in improvements, from £2uO to jE300 of which is appropriated to paying his tenants to drain and subsoil their lands at so much per perch, has found the greatest difficulty in inducing his tenants to change their old mode of cultivation. Every such step taken by any landlord is viewed with suspicion by the tenantry; Lhey took on it only as a means of increasing the rents, and never for a moment consider the benefits which they them- selves will dertve from d, even though their rents are increased Mr. Wilson's plan, after thus improving a Farm chiefly at his own expense, is to add one-half of the increased value to the origin.il rent agreed on, as a repayment to him for the ontlay of his capital, the other naIf gong to the benefit of his tenants. In consequence however, of compelling his tenants to follow an improved system of cutuvanon, this gentleman has already received Me or two notices that he will be shot!

MANCHESTER AND MILFORD HAVEN RAILWAY.—The Manchester and Birmingham Continuation and Welsh Junction Railway having been projected to traverse the sa ne line of country as the northern part of this line, th>■ committee have considered it to be for the benefit of the shareholders to avoid any parliamentary contest; and have, accordingly, entered into an arrangement for the entire amalgamation of the two companies, on equal terms. In pursuance of this arrangement, the line of the Manchester and Milford Haven Railway will commence by a junction with the other line, near Llangeriig, instead of at Crewe. The Capital is reduced to f 1,500,000; and a portion of the shares have been granted to the other Company. It has become necessary, therefore, to close the list of applications; and no application for shares will be received after Wednesday next, the 5th day of November, except from landowners and gentlemen lo- cally interested.

These celebrated FAMILY ) ILLS have been faithfully dis- pensed by the present Proprietor for more than 30 years, and have obtained from all grades of the community a character and reputation which no medicine of a similar nature has hitherto acquired. Dr. SYDENHAM'S PILLS being a most happy combination of vegetable matter, and not contain- ing any mprcurial preparation, require neither continemcot *ion, require nor alteration in diet during their use.
