CHURCH RESTORATIONS.—REOPENING OF YERBESTON CHURCH -This interestina ceremony took place OR the 12th instant. The day was most unfavourable, as the rain poured down in torrents, and prevented many people from being present. Still the church was well filled, and the Bishop, true to his engagement, arrived soon after the appointed hour. The Service was rend by the Rev T. Edwardes. curate of the parish. The Bishop selecting for his text, Saint Matthew v.8, preached in his usual style a very elaborate discourse. He was followed, in the afternoon by Archdeacon Clark, whose text was from Saint Matthew xxi. 13. The church at this time was quite full, and the congregation appeared to bo greatly impressed by the plain and telling truths enunci- ated by the venerable preacher. The choral portion of the services was performed by the Choir of Lawrenny Church, ably conducted by their accomplished leader on the harmonium. The psalms and hymns were well chosen and sung with pood taste and feelinp. The colieation amounted to Xill 10s. Between the services a substantial cold luncheon was provided, at the new Parsonage, of which the Bishop, supported by the worthy County Member, G. Lnrt Phillips, Esq, Mrs Lort Phillips, Mrs Bowling, H. Allen, Esq, the Arebdeaon, the Herds W. Bowling (rector of the parish), J. D. Palmour (viear of Jeffreyston), O. T. Phillips (rector of Lawrenny), James Palmour (curate of Jeffreyston), T. Williams (rector of Langum), T. Edwardes (curate), and other visitors pre- sent, partook. The Rector and Curate of Yerbeston have done much toward the restoration of the parisll church; but the chief promoters of the good work have been the Churchwarden—Mr Palmer, of Yerbeston, and Mr Phelps, of Thorn. Their exertions in collecting subscriptions, &c have been indefatigable, and they enjoy the well- earned satisfaction of being mainiv instrumental in add ing one to the many neat and elegant churches of South Pembrokeshire. KILGERRAN.—CHOLERA.—Last week a house to house visitation wa- made by the Sanitary Committee for the Village of Kdgerran. They consisted of the Rev David Evans, rector, one of the Guardians, and one of the Com- mittee appointed by the Cardigan Board of Guardians for the parish, Mr 1). Mathias, medical officer of the district, Mr Griffith Griffiths, highway district surveyor, Mr M. K. Williams, churchwarden of the parish, Mr Griffith Evans, overseer, and Mr John Evans, assistant overseer of the parish. Great praise is due to Mr G. Griffiths for having a week previously sent out the crier to warn the inhabitants of the proposed visitation. The committee have much pleasure in being able to state that the dwel- lings, &c, were well whitewashed and in every other respect cleanly. The committee were unanimously of opinion, that it was dangerous to hold a service in the house of a person who then lay dead from cholera, as also in the church, but that the corpse should be at once closed up in the coffin, which was accordingly done. The Rev Mr Evans was deputed to report to the next Board Guardians the south side of the main street, and the necessity of constructing a new drain leading to the parish main drain. The committee also drew out a list of per- sons who were deficient in bedclothes, &c. The Rev Mr Evans was deputed to urge upon the Board the necessity of supplying them with ouch, as it was quite useless to endeavour to ward off the epidemic by cleanliness only in the present and coming severe weather. They, how- ever, were pleased at the cleanliness of the clothes the people possessed. The committee consulted with Mr John Evans, engineer, as to the possibility of getting a water supply, and Mr Evans promised to supply a plan gratuitously. The committee expressed much pleasure in being able to recommend Mr Evans to survey certain houses in the Cardigan Union to be converted into an Infirmary for the Union. DUNGLEDDT PETTY SESSIONS.—These sessions were held on Friday at Cross Inn, before Rev. M. Williams, and the Rev. J. Philipps. Rev. M. Williams v. The District Surveyor of the Midland Highway District, and the Oversiers of the parish of Henry's Moat, for non-repair of a certain highway. There being only one magistrate present besides the complainant, the case was adjourned by consent for a week.—— George Martin, of Lampeter, was summoned foi assaulting John Evans and Ann Evans, at Little Newcastle, on the 15th inst. Neither party appeared, and the case was dismissed. John Syme, of Arnold's Hill, was charged by A.S. Clarke with allowing his cart to be used on a highway without haviug his name painted thereon. Defendant admitted the offtmce, and was fined 6d and costs. Paid. William Tkomat, of Narbertb, fellmonger, was charged by A.S. Clarke, with moving certain skins of animals, to wit, a quantity of sheep skins, along a certain highway, the said skins not being effectually covered as required by the order of Her Majesty's Privy Council, dated March 24th, 1866.— Mr W. John, solicitor, appeared for the defendant, and denied the charge.—P.C. George Furlong deposed: On Saturday, August 18:b, I was on duty on the Narberth Road. I saw the defendant driving a cart laden with "heep skins :"they were not covered, but all exposed.- Cross-examined by Mr John: The skins were not covered with a horse cloth or anything else. It was between five and six o'clock in the evening.-P.C. Simon John cor- roborated the evidence of the last witness, and in reply to Mr John said: I saw no horse cloth on the skhm.—Mt John then addressed the Bench in a very able manner, stating that this county bad happily been exempt from any attack of that fell disease by which many other parts of the kingdom had been ravaged, and spoke in very complimentary terms of the unwearied exertions made by the magistracy to prevent the introduction of the disease, but he really did not think that this was a case calling for any heavy penalty, and was quite content to leave the ca?e in the hands of their Worships, feeling convinced that they would deal leniently with him. Fined 10s and costs. DEATH OF MAJOR HEWETT.—On Friday week an in- quest was held on the body, of Major Hewett, of Velindre, near Llanrian, in this county, before Mr Asa J. Evans, deputy coroner. Mrs Hewett deposed that her late husband immediately before be went to bed, on the previous Monday night about ten o'clock took gome morphia pills, which he was in the babit of taking oc- casionally for the purpose of inducing sleep, observing that he wanted to sleep soon, so that he might get up early to go out with the dogs. Between eleven and twelve o'clock, observing him groaning and uneasy, she asked if there was anything the matter with him. He replied that there was nothing, I only he wantea to sleep.' Soon after Dr. Williams, his usual medical ad- viser, was sent for, and arrived about one o'clock on Tuesday morning. Dr. Williams deposed, that be found the deceased in a state of stupor, and too far overcome by the poison to be roused to a state of consciousness that he stayed with the deceased till he died between two and three o'clock in the afternoon of Tuesday. From all the symptoms he observed he had no doubt as to death having been caused by an over dose of morphia. Dr. Williams was corroborated by Dr. Howell who was also called in some hours before death. The deputy coroner having summed up, the jury gave in their unani- mous verdict, that death was caused by an over-dose of morphia, incautiously taken medicinally by the de- ceased.' Major J. F. Napier Hewett, was a son of Col. Hewett of Tir-mab-ellis, Glamorganshire, and was only thirty-three years of age. For some years he served as an officer in the army, and was stationed with his regi- ment on the African coast. After his return to this country, he published a book which he had written on the I West coast of Africa.' In this work he gave the results of his experience and observation, and also ex- pressed a very unfavourable opinion of the Dissenting missionaries with whom he came in contact. The work attracted a good deal of attention, and notwith- standing its defects, it was regarded as an authority on the subject of which it treated. The author still clung to the semblance though not to the profession of a soldier; and after quitting the army he became a captain in the Royal Glamorganshire Militia. A few years ago Capt. Hewett purchased the important slate quarry at Porthgain, and became a resident in that locality which is one of the bleakest and most exposed parts of the North-Western coast of Pembrokeshire. He had not been long at Velindre, before an article entitled A Re- mote Corner of Wales,' and signed I J. F. N. H.' ap- peared in Bentlcy's Miscellany. As this article ridi- culed and censured many things which a traveller may meet with in Pembrokeshire, it Created a strong feeling among the inhabitants against their new neighbour. About a year ago Capt. Hewett was promoted to the rank of Major, and about the same time also he sold the Porthgain quarry to a company. During nearly the whole time Major Hewett lived in Pembrokeshire he tept <nmaU ptot of foxhounds, and vu well knows throughout the County for his intense love of sport. He would rise early on the coldest winter morning to take out his hounds, and nobody was so punctual at the meet as the master himself. Major Hewett was a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, and was a rather remarkable combination of a lover of literature and a lover of sport, for he seems to have taken consi- derable delight in his literary labours. As a writer he was rapid and dashing, and his works displayed much spirit and vivacity, but his chief fault was an evident want of patience, which gave his writings all the un- pleasant results of hurry and carelessness. Personally, Major Hewett was highly esteemed by those who kuew him. His courtesy and urbanity won him many friends, who will deeply deplore his untimely and melancholy death. But the severest loss of all will be felt by the widow and s-x young children whom he leaves behind. By his death a majorship in the Glamorganshire Militia becomes vacant. —————— ROOSE PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held at the Shire HaH on Saturday, before o. E. Davies, Esq, A. B. Starback, Esq, J. P. Jones, Esq, J. M. Jones, Esq, W. Owen, Esq, Capt. Child, and the Rev. P. Phelps. ALLOWING ASSES TO STRAY.

CHARGE-AGAINST A PUBLICAN. Thomas Davies. innkeeper, of Merlin's Bridge, was charged by Mr H. Stephens, Inland Revenue Officer, with neglecting to make an entry of three bushels of malt used by him for making beer, in a paper furnished him for that purpose by the Revenue Officer. The defendant said that he must plead guilty to the charge, though he was not guilty of the offence himself, He was from home all the week, working, and the busi- ness was managed by his wife. She being no scholar, had the entries made on the excise papers by a little girl, who in the hurry and bustle of some preparations for an excursion to the Haven, forgot to make the entry. That was the true explanation of the omission, which was not done with any intention to defraud the Excise. M rSturgeon, Supervisor of Inland Revenue, said that he believed it was an act of forgetfulness, but it was necessary that the Board should make an example of the defendant. The papers were left with the publicans to make the entry of the quantityof malt used, and on the quantity ascertained at the end of the year, the duty was assessed, It was impossible to tell whether the omission would be any advantage to the defendant till the end of the year, as the duty was arranged upon an ascending scale. The Bench said that the penalty was £200, which they mitigated to one-fourth— £ 50, and they recommended a further reduction to £3, which they hoped the Board would accept. DRUNKENNESS, &C. Thomas Lewis, of Quay-street, was charged with drunkenness and riotous conduct. The defendant was committed to prison for seven days, and ordered to pay the costs, and in default of payment of cost., to be further imprisoned for seven days. Matthew Thomas, ot Prendergast, was charged with being drunk. The defendant denied the charge, saying that he bad only drunk four pints of beer. P.C. Codd proved the charge, and the defendant was fined 5s and costs; which were ordered to be paid in a week. TEMPORARY HOSPITAL FOR HAVER- FORDWEST.

Proposed by Mr Brown and seconded by Mr Davies, that the authorities of the Asylum be respectfully desired to remove the Lunatics on Thursday next, and that the Sewer Authorities take possession on that day.

GRANTING OF LICENCES AT NARBERTH.—In the report of these proceedings last week, an error appeared in the magisterial division list. It was there stated that T. R. Thomas, Esq, voted against the granting of Mr Smythe's licence. This was an error, as Mr Thomas voted with the majority of the magistrates who were in favour of the licence being granted. We give the correct division below ior the Licence. I Against the Licence. Captain Child J. L. G. P. Lewis, Esq S, Harford, Esq James James, Esq B. T. Williams, Esq I G. R. G.

In Begelly parish there has been a great number of at- tacks. Four proved fatal. In Templeton also there has and is still a great number of cases. Last week two proved fatal. The sanitary committee, the police, and the gentlemen of the neighbourhood are unremitting in their endeavours to do all they can to prevent the spread of the pestilence. As cleanliness and wholesome habita- tions are indispensably necessary, all these are strictly icrutinized and, where wanting, the nuisance is strictly ordered to be abated forthwith. Every facility is put within the reach of the poor to do so free of expense. There are lime and brushes supplied them in abundance. There is also medicine, which is considered the best an- tidote against the disease, to be had at Begelly Rectory. at the Post Office, Templeton, and with the Guardians of the Poor of the respective parishes, free of expense, The medicine is prepared by Mr John Nicholas, Dis- pensing Chemist, Narberth, and has proved most effectual when taken in due time. LAMPETER VELFRBY CHURCH.—On Tuesday, Sep- tember 18th there was full Choral Service In the above Church on the oocasion of a thanksgiving for harvest and in celebration of the completion of the restoration of the Church. Although the day was unfortunatelf rery wet, a large congregation assembled to take part io the service.
