Superior beasts were plentiful, and sold well at satisfactory prices; for other descriptions there was little or no demand. There was a large supply of sheep, numbers of which were readily disposed of at advanced rates.

LORD CAWDOR'S PRESENT TO CARMARTHENSHIRE.—At the Carmarthenshire Quarter Sessions, held on Thursday week, the Chairman, J. Johnes, Esq., Dolaucothy, an- nounced to the Court that the Earl of Cawdor bad ex- pressed his intention of presenting the county with a clock, to be placed inside the Shire Hall at Carmarthen. This would be a very handsome and useful present, and the noble lord asks permission to be allowed to fix it in a suitable place in the Hall; and he further says that be will pay all the expenses incurred. For himself he begged to thank his lordship, and he believed the county would also feel grateful for the noble lord's very serviceable gift. (Hear, hear.)-Sir J. Drummond that the very hand- some present Lord Cawdor had intimated his intention of making should not be accepted by the Bench, without some further remark than had fallen from the Chairman. It was an unusual thing even for the Lord Lieutenant of a County to make special presents, and some method of warmly acknowledging it should be adopted he did not say exactly by a cheer-(laughter),-but the Bench ought to express its thanks.-Earl Cawdor said that he was pleased to find that his present was so warmly re- ceived. He was perhaps in some measure influenced by a selfish feeling, as the clock would lead some of them not to speak too long.—Sir J. Hamilton: I hope it is not meant to teach us to go in tick. (Laughter.) CRICKET.—A return match between the Haverfordwest and Pembroke Garrison Clubs took place on Friday and terminated in favour of the former. The Haverfordwest gentlemen first went to the wicket, and scored 113 runs, of which Mr Thomas contributed 16, (1 three, 3 two's, and singles); Mr Llewellin 23, (4 three's, 2 two's, and singles); Mr Lascelles 26, (3 three's, 3 two's, and singles); and Mr James Philipps, 17, (4 two's, and singles). The Garrison Eleven then took the willow, and scored 32 runs: following their innings they were more unfor- tunate, their total score amounting to only 17 runs. The play all round of the Haverfordwest eleven was exceed. ingly good, the bowling ot Mr Thomas being particularly destructive. The following is the score on the occasion: HAVERFORDWEST. G.

Bagshawe, Esq., recently committed a woman named James, to take her trial at the Assizes, on a charge of perjury during a case heard at Cardigan County Court. The assizes were held at Cardigan on Monday before Sir James Wilde, who made the following remarks on the case in his charge to the GrlJld Jory :—'The third case was one in which a woman of-the name of James was committed by the judge of the County Court for perjury. The circumstances of the eenviction transpired in a case in which the prisoner was an<* the ma8ter aDd mistress of prisoner were ttWflndants, and on the case being tried the master and mistress swore on one side and the servant on the other. The learned judge expressed his unqualified surprise that the Judge of the County Court should have committed the girl for perjury, because, as his lordship observed, it was oath against oath, and proceeded to point out the evils which would arise from convictions of this nature, for all non-suited parties would be subject to a similar indictment. The Judge of the County Court in his notes had said, too, that the only impartial witness examined was one on the side of the prisoner. This was matter for further surprise to his lordship. He (the learned Judge) was not present at the court when this girl gave her evidence, and of course he could not presume to say which side was swearing falsely, but the facts would be laid before the grand jury for their consideration; but he felt it his duty to tell them that if a true bill was returned, and the case came on for trial before him, he should direct the jury to discharge the prisoner ou the grounds he had already stated.

OBTAINING BEER BY FALSE PRETENCES* Thomas Harrie8 was charged with obtaining beer by false pretences from Mr Benjamin Daviee, of the .George and Dragon Inn, Milford. The prisoner, who had been remanded from last session, was now discharged with a severe reprimand. CHARGE OF HIGHWAY ROBBERY. William Thomas, alias.Lower, of the Merlin's Bridge, was charged with assaulting with intent to rob Jane Roblin, of Prendergast, on the morning of the 7th inst, on the highway in the parish of St. Ishmaels. On the case being called on, the complainant did not appear, and in explanation of her absence, it was stated that she had received a sovereign from the prisoner not to press the charge. The husband was present, and at the request of the magistrates, he left the Court in search of his wife, and shortly afterwards returned with her. In reply to a question from the Bench, she said that she did not attend because she could not swear that the prisoner was the person who attempted to rob her. She was then asked if she had not told several persons, and amongst others P.C. Gellespie, that the prisoner was the person, when she denied that she had made such s state- ment. The complainant was then sworn she deposed I was at St. Ishmaels about half-past two o'clock, and I met the prisoner at the upper public house at that place. We came about half a mile on the road, when the prisoner left. About half an hour afterwards, the little boy who was in the cart with me, said there was some one inside the hedge. The day was breaking, and it was about a quarter to three o'clock. We went up a long hill, when the boy said there was aome one coming after us. Shortly afterwards a man came up and caught me by the neck and knocked me down. He shook my dress when I was on the ground, and then ran away. I had no money about me. I was knocked down on my back. I cannot say who the man was. Charlotte Dawson said that she was on the road at the time the assault was committed. She and her daughter were in a donkey cart, and some distance in advance of the complainant. Her daughter looked in the direction of the complainant's cart, and said that a man was hold- ing Mrs Roblin. She (witness) looked also, and saw them on the road side against the hedge, where they re- mained for about ten minutes or a quarter of an hour. She did not think that any person was robbing her; and remarked to her daughter that there was nothing the matter, or the complainant would have cried out. She did not know the man. P.C. Gillespie said that Roblin told her that she was sure it was the prisoner who assaulted her. The complainant stated that she was not in the hedge with the man for ten minuted The Bench dismissed the case, remarking that either the complainant or the witness, Dawson, had perjured herself. The prisoner was then apprehended under warrant by the Town Police, and committed to prison for seven days for drunkenness and riotous conduct. MANCHESTER AND MILFORD RAILWAY. For several months past it was no secret to many of our readers that certain legal disputes existed between the Company's solicitors and Mr Beeston, the contractor. These disagreements were placed in Chancery for settle- ment, with what result the following report will explain. IN CHANCERY.—VICE-CHANCELLOR STUART. 2nd July, 1863. BEESTON. V. MARRIOT AND OTHERS. The Plaintiff in this case was and is a railway con- tractor residing at Llanidloes, in Mongomeryshire, having contracts with the Manchester and Milford Kauway Company, for a construction of a portion of Tni Llanidloes and Pantmawr. l lie Defendants are the Manchester and Milford Rail- way Company; Messrs Marriott and Jordan, their soli- citors, and also judgment creditors; and John Dugdale, Esq, the Sheriff of Montgomeryshire. .hf/.hl6 the.Deed of Contract it was stipulated that the contractor should find and provide all plant and materials necessary for carrying out the contract. And I That from time to time, as, and when any material or plant whatsoever should be upon or brought upon the site of the said works, or upon land adjoining thereto and belonging to the company, then and immediatel thereupon {he paid materialf or plant shou;d become be the absolute property of the company, and be consi- dered as in their possession and that the contractor should have no property therein or in respect thereof at law or in equity, except in the right of using the same upon the premises of the company merely for the pur- poses of the said works, and except that if the contractor should duly complete the whole of the said contract, except twelve months' maintenance provided for by the said specification, but not otherwise then after the full and due completion of all such works of maintenance as aforesaid as a condition precedent, the company would give unto the contractor as a part of the consideration of give unto the contractor as a part of the consideration of his performance of the said contract the said plant unused and unconsumed materials, the bringing of the said plant and materials upon the said premises by the con- contractor upon the terms aforesaid, being one of the conditions for the company entering into the said con- tract on their part, and that if any work should be taken out of the hands of the contractor by the company in pursuance of the conditions thereinafter referred to, or otherwise, on account of any default in the contractor, then and in every such case, it should be lawful for the company or any person with whom they should contract, or whom they should employ for the execution or prose- cution of the same work, to use and employ therein all or any part of the said materials and plant, making only such compensation therefore to the contractor, his heirs, executors, or administrators, as the principal engineer of the company should think just, and should by writing under his hand award to be paid.' And the company covenanted with the contractor that they would, as the works proceeded, make monthly payments upon the certificates of the engineer to the full amount of the work executed and materials supplied, less 5 per cent. retention, which was to be retained by the Railway Company as a guarantee fund for the performance of the contract. And it was stipulated that any advances or payments on account during progress should not in any affect any question in the ultimate settlement of accounts, but should be without prejudice to the final settlement and adjustment by the engineer of the amount owing by the company to the contractor. Under the foregoing provisions, the engineer had cer- tified and the company bad paid to the contractor large sums as the works proceeded. At the time of the issuing of the execution hereafter mentioned, the contractor had deposited in and upon the lands of the Railway Company for t"e purpose ofejsecuting his contract, large quantities of iron rails, railway ehairs, fish plates, plant and materials, and it was admitted that at that time he was carrying out his contract in all things to the satiéfaction of the company's engineer, Mr Fulton. The defendants, Marriot and Jordan were the solicitors to the Railway Company, against whom they had obtained judgment for Bills and Costs, amounting together to £5,803 16s. 6d. Upon this judgment they, on they 28th February, 1863, issued execution ayainst the Railway Company, and under that execution, the Sheriff, on their instructions,, seized the iron plates, and other materials, contending that by virtue of the foregoing clauses of the contract, coupled with the payments of the legal owner- ship of the goods was absolutely- vested in their debtors, the Railway Company, and that the goods were therefore liable to seizure and sale to liquidate the company's debt to them. The plaintiff thereupon filed his bill for an injunction to restrain the Sheriff from selling the goods seized, praying for a declaration that neither the defendants, the Railway Company, nor Marriot and Jordan, had any right or interest therein, except subject to the right of the plaintiff to use and employ the same in the formation and construction of the said works, and also subject to his right to such as should be unconsumed on the completion of the contract; and that the defendants, Marriott and Jordan might pay the costs of the suit. On the hearing for an injunction on the 16th March last, the Vice-Chancellor directed that motion to stand over, the plaintiff to be at liberty to serve notice of motion for a Decree, the Sheriff meanwhile to withdraw from possession. Evidence having been meantime taken in the cause before a special examiner, Mr Bacon, Q.C., and Mr W. J. Bovill for the plaintiff, the contractor accordingly now moved for a Decree in the terms of the prayer of the bill. Mr Malins, Q.C., and Mr Dickenson for the defendants Marriott and Jordan, the execution creditors, and Mr Locock Webb for the Railway Company, opposed the motion (Mr Speed for the Sheriff taking no part in the discussion.) They contended, 1st. That as matter of law under the clause in question, the moment the contractor brought either the plant or materials on the ground of the company, they became legally the property of the company, and therefore seizable by the execution ereditors of the company. They insisted that the contract was precise and explicit,, for it vested all property in the goods, both at law and in equity, in the Railway Company from the moment of their delivery on the ground, and they agreed that for any breach of the stipulation on the part of the Railway Company in not permitting the contractor to use the materials for the purposes of his contract, or for not delivering up to him any surplus that might remain after completion, the con- tractor must rely upon his legal remedy against the company who had by implication warranted to him the use during construction, and any surplus remaining after completion. And Secondly—They contended that by virtue of the en- gineer's certificates and payments in pursuance of those certificates, apart from the mere legal title, the company were equitable owners of the goods seized, so that either way the goods were seizable under the execution. JUDGMENT. The Vice Chancellor, Sir John Stuart, said:—The question in the cause is, whether or not, the defendants, Marriott and Jordan, who are creditors of the co-de- fendants, the Railway Company, are entitled to take in execution certain rails and other chattels, which, being creditors of the company, under the execution issued by them, have been taken in execution by the Sheriff. The plaintiff has agreed that these rails and other chattels so taken in execution are not the property of the company in such a way, or in such a sense, as that the company themselves, or any creditor of the company can deal with them as absolute owners, or take them in execution. The right to the property in question is governed by the stipulations in the contract under which these chat- tels were purchased. It has been argued on behalf of the creditors and of the company that, according to the sti- pulations of the contract, these rails and other chattels, when placed where they now stand, upon the land taken by the company, for the purposes of the undertaking, are by the express terms of the contract, the absolute property of the company, and that the present plaintiff has no interest or right of property whatever in them. It is true the contract says that, placed upon the ground, these chattels shall be the absolute property of the company, and that the plaintiff shall have no property in them; but immediately afterwards follow three exceptions which qualify that absolute right of property in the property which the first words of the contract give to them. These exceptions are, first of all, that all these chattels are to be under the dominion of the plaintifl who has contracted to use them, that they shall be under his dominion for the purpose of using them, that so much of them as shall not be used for the purpose of constructing the railway when he has completed the contract shall then become the absolute property of the plaintiff; and there is a further stipulation that if, instead of the plain- tiff using those chattels, circumstancea shall occur to entitle the railway company using them shall make com- pensation to him in respect of them. It is clear, therefore, the contract being couched in these terms, that that ab- solute right of property in the company is given to them for the purpose of preventing the chattels being taken in execution when on the ground of the company by any creditor of the plaintiff is qualified by those important rights in those chattels. The right of using them, the right, as to one of them, of becoming absolutely possessed of them, the right to demand compensation from the company if the company shall use them, to qualify the right of the company, and give such a right and interest of a legal character to the plaintiff in those chattels that they cannot be considered the property of the company so as to be taken in execution. They are chattels upon the ground of the company, dedicated to a particular pur- pose, in which purpose both the plaintiff and the defen- dants are interested as to the use of the chattels; and as to the surplus, they are ultimately to become the absolute property of the plaintiff. Chattels In that situation cannot be taken in execution. The plaintiff is entiled to the relief he prays. The defendants who have thus, in my opinion, improperly taken these chattels in execution, and railway company who join the defendants in claiming the chaste as the absolute .property of railway company, mnst aoUf Muthp cogts of the suit. ,y Solicitora tor the plaintiff, Mqgp4 a, and IÏ.

«. TENBY. We hear that the Bank of Wales intends opening a branch"at Tenby. On Monday week the Tenby Artillery Volunteer Corps went out for ball practice, when, as usual, the firing was good, the shots dropping near the target. The Fire Fly, steamer from Bristol, on Friday week brought about 80 passengers, consisting principally of tourists. PUBLIC BALL.A ball will take place at the Gate House Assembly Rooms, on Thursday next, when the following gentlemen will act as stewards ;-CaptaulS Bayley, Oldfield, and Fitzroy, and H.Fletcher, Esq. EXCURSION STEAMERS.—On Saturday week the steamer Royal Princess arrived here from Llanelly with about 300 passengers, and again on Monday, when shehad about 350. On Tuesday the steamer Prince of Wales, from Swansea, brought about 169 passengers. On Tuesday week the Overseers of this distrist were ex- pected to attend at Pembroke to have their accounts audited the half year ending Lady Day last. The Assistant- Overseer for the parish of St Mary In-liberty Tenby. did not attend, nor, we are informed, are his books made up, We believe the auditor directed that an accountant should be employed to make out the accounts, preparatory to a special audit. To such of the public in Tenby as take an interest ifl wwather phenomena, as foreshown by barometic indica- tiona, it will be easy henceforth far them to consult the readings of our barbour barometer on board placed, there by Colonel Austen, on which the barometic curve ø entered daily, at nine a.m., as redueed to sea level, and the temperature of 32 deg, like the Buard of Tradt marking's TRIAE, OF LIFEBOATS.—Two lifeboats, intended to bf stationed respectively at Tenby at Lytham, under went their harbour trials on Monday week, in tbe Regent's Canal Dock, Limehouse. The boats are each thirty-three feet long, and rowing ten oars. The self-righting, self-eject- ing the water, and other qualities desirable in this class of vessels were exhibited in the most satisfactory manner. The boats are the property of the National Lifeboat Institution. SAUNDERSFOOT.—One day last week a sailor was em- ployed on the rigging near the cross-trees of a vessel in Saundersfoot Harbour, when, by some means or other, his foot slipped, and he fell down between the vessel's sido and the harbour wall, striking the back of his head against the edge of the wall, and inflicting a serious scalp wound: his further descent was stopped by tbe wooden fender hanging from the ship's side. It was most for- tunate that he came down on his feet: had he unhappily fell on his bead, the consequenoes would have been in all probability fatal. TENBY POLICE COURT, MONDAY, JULY 6tb.-Betore the Mayor, Dr Dyster, and H. Sanders, Esq.—Elizabeth Protheroe and Elizabeth Rees, were brought up in the custody of Head Constable Harrison, charged with vagrancy, being found at 3 a.m. concealed in an out- house. Reprimanded and discharged.—Same day.—James Harries, labourer, wa-, charged with stealing a pair of trousers from a garden hedge, the property of W. Jenkins, cabman. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Sentenced to 14 days' hard labour. We have pleasure in extracting the following from the Weston-Super-Ma-re Gazette, of the 4th inst., the Captain Rowe referred to being son of the late Mr Thomas Rowe, Principal Officer of H.M. Customs in this town:—The quickest passage on record from England to Hong Kong, has just bpen performed by the British steamer Bahama, commanded by Captain Rowe, brother to Mr John Rowe, formerly a resident of this town. The passage from Holy- head to Hong Kong was performed in 75 days under steam and canvass. ODD-FELLOWSHIP.-On Monday week the half-year'* accounts of the Loyal Ship aud Castle Lodge of Odd Fellows, M,U., were audited, when the result proved highly satisfactory. The income for the half y?a £ amounted to £ 80 6s 0|d., and there was expended for sick pay, medical attendance on members, &c £ 55 16s. 6d.; and the total stock and property belonging to the lodge was shown to have reached the large sum of £ 950 15s. 2jd The lodge numbers 87 members.
