The prosecutrix (whose garrulity caused considerable amusement) deposed, that the smell from the pigs fre- quently made her ill, and that she was unable to keep any meat, &c, in the larder, which was only eight or ten yards from the pigstye. By Mr Hulm: Had never spoken to Mr Norris about the matter. The Inspector of Nuisances did not tell her that the pigstye was quite clean, and that the animals were not a nuisance. There was a wall between the defendant's premises and hers: it was fully six feet high, but less than twelve feet: had not consulted a medical man: did not think it necessary: never saw the pigstye, and could not. remember whether Mr Williams, the inspector, was in the garden with her. Her servant, Martha Morris, nearly corroborated the above evidence. Miss Saunders, a lady who also resides next door to Mr Norris, gave similar evidence to that of Miss Bowling, who prompted her in Her evidence, upon which a gentle- man (Mr Lock) was desired by the Bench to sit between the two ladies. For the defence, Mr Hulm called Mr John Williams, Inspector of Nuisances for the Borough of Pembroke, who said: I have at the request of the Mayor, Mr Tre- went, visited Mr Norris's premises on various occasions twice a day and found the cot and pigs quite clean, washed out, and quite healthy. I gave notice to Norri?, hy order of the mayor to abate the nuisance by the 31st July, although I was of opinion that no nuisance existed. The pigstye was whitewashed. I visited the place on the 29th, 3'.)th, and 31st July, and on the 6th and 8th insts. I again visited the pigstye and found it quite clean, and the pigs healthy. By the Bench: Was with Dr. Hunter when he visited the town had no direction from him about pigstyes. John Norris, the defendant, deposed I make it a prac- tice to clean and scrub the pigstye a.t six o'clock every morning, and from seven to ei«jht o'clock every evening. It is built of timber, which I coat over with coal tar out- side twice a year. and the interior is whitewashed mnch oitener: there is nothing injurious to health caused by it. The Bench, after consulting for sometime, said, that Mr Norris had done all he could to keep the cot and pigs clean; but still they considered it a nuisance, and would order it to be ubated, and the pigs removed. Mr Hulm gave notice of appeal, Mary Warncr, v. George Harries, watchmaker, Ln.ws- street, Pembroke Dock, for an assault on a child of 10 years of age. Case dismissed. Supt. Geo. Evans v Thomas Lloyd, carter, of Pembroke, for obstructing the highway. Withdrawn on payment of costs. Paid. Same r. WilliamRees, carter, of Pembroke, for allowing his two horses to stray on the highway. Fined 5s each horse, and 6s costs, or seven days' hard labour. Committed in default. Elizabeth Price, of the East-end, Pembroke, v. Mary Edwards, of the same p'ace, for an assault. The defendant was fined 5s, and 6.3 coats, or seven days to the House of Correction. Fine and costs paid.

PEMBROKE-DOCK. On Saturday evening, the 9th inst, the engineers in connection with the dockyard engaged Messrs Jackson and Co.'s steamer, Milford Haven, for a cruise to the en- trance of the haven. About 200 persons were on board, who were admitted by tickets only, and were principally friends of the gentlemen of the committee, to whom much credit is due for the admirable and judicious manner in which the arrangements were carried out. PEMBROKE Docà BAZAAR.—-On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the 8th, 9th, and 10th inst, a grand bazaar was held in the Temperance Hall, on behalf of the fund for the building: of a new Sunday School, in connection with St. John's Church, by which a goodly sum of money was netted. The venerable Dr. G. F. Kelly, incumbent of the church, was present. The building was gracefully fitted up, and had a pleasing appearance, the whole of the stalls being well filled with art of a miscellaneous character, usual at afFairs of this kind, the majority of which were kindly given. Eail Cawdor generously pre- sented a choice collection of magnificent grapes, melons-, f and pine apples, all of which wete speedily disposed of at good prices. The stalls were presided over as follows: No 1, refreshments, Miss James and Miss A. Thome No 2, Miss Thorne and the Misses Bandiey Ko 3,. Mrs Newbr, Mrs Kneebone, and Misses liobertson aaci Tay- lor No 4, Mrs J. F. Kelly and the Misses Potter No 5, Hewitson and Mrs Chevalier; No 8, Miss Radmore, Misses Kelly and Sutton, and Mrs Keys; and No 7, fruit stall, Miss A. Eadmore. There was an excellent string bandin attendance, which greatly enhanced the pleasures of the day. The bazaar was a perfect success.

THE FROG SEASON.—The frog season is now at its height. The thousands of frogs born early in the spring now swarm the marshy ground. The quantity disposed of in Buffalo is surprisingly large. The principal dealers sell easily 1,200 per day, and the consumption of four hotels which have the delicacy in their bills of fare will probably add 500 to that amount. As there are several smaller grocery stores which sell daily from 25 to 50 pairs, it will be safe to say that not lesa than 2,00& are being eaten in Buffalo every day. Already over 100,000 have been sold, and the remaining two months of the season will increase that amount to nearly 300,000, which is but a moderate quantity, considering the already largo and yearly increasing numbers which inhabit the river islands and all along the shore of Canada. The article retails at from 1 dol. to 1 dol. 50c. per I no Buffalo -Express. GROUSE SHOOTING IN "WALES.—In North Wales, as elsewhere, the grouse disease has this year seriously in- terfered with the prospects of sport, but on the 12th the birds were found much more numerous and in better condition in the Bala district than had been anticipated It was especially noticed that the disease was much more prevalent on the hill-sides exposed to the sun than on those which are almost constantly m the snade. from Glanlyn Sir W. W. Wynn's party turned out six guns, and after a most fagaing day, under a broiling sun, they bagged 60 brace. Captains Arkwnght and Stevens, of the 2nd Life Guards, with a friend, bagged 26 brace, but both parties expected better sport during the week, as on the opening day' they passed oyer their best spots. On the evening of the 12th grouse could be pur- chased in Bala at 5s a brace, half the price asked on the Scotch AND YORKSHIRE MOORG,

the important process of bleaching and dressing Laces and Linens for Spring and Summer wear commences, we would therefore particularly call the attention of oar fair readers to the Glenfield Starch, an article of primary importance in the getting up of these articles. The Glenfield Starch is specially manufactured for family use, and such is its excellence that it is now exclusively used in the Royal Laundry, and Her Majesty's Laundress pronounces it to be the finest Starch she ever used. Her Majesty's Lace Dresser says it is the best she has tried, and it was awarded two Prize Medals for its superiority. The manufacturers have much pleasure in stating that they have been appointed Starch Purveyors to H.R.H. the Princess of Wales. The Glenfield Starch is Soid in packets only, by all Grocers, Chandlers, &C,&C.

SAILORS AND THEIR WIVES.—A few days ago a sailor named James Dugnouii, just arrived in the Mersey after a long voyage, was tnken into custody Oil a charge of having left his wife dependent oil the parish. He was brought before the magistrates, and remanded; and being again brought up on Wednesday, he stated that he had sent his wife while he was abroad about £ 100, and he produced receipts for upwards of £GO which she had received from him from time to time during his absence. The magistrates at once discharged the poor fellow, who expressed his intention of clearing the port' at once. FINING A HIGH SHERIFF.—In the Dublin Commis- i-don Court, Mr Malachy Hussey, the high sheriff, having by order of the court been called two or t three times, and not having answered, the Lord Chief Justice said—The high sheriff has been called, and called more than once and he has not answered. The station he holds is one of great dignity and of great antiquity. It is an office which has not been constituted for the purpose of conferring distinction on the "holder. Me is bound to attend this court, or else to make an application to the judges. He has been called several times and has not answered, and for that breach of uutv it is due to us and to the office we hold to impewe a fine on that .srentleman wbich we now order to be recorded, of zc;jo. MEXICO.—A city of Mexico pnper says that 968 p persons were shot during the empire without having been legally tried. Many officers of the Liberal army have tendered their resignations. Over 700 Austrian prisoners have been sent to Peubla, and G engi-als Corona and Cktadaran were,, by forced marches, going to the Alma Mountains to bring General Lorado to terms and make him give up his armed neutrality. It is reported that General Cortiaa has bean appointed Governor of Ta-maulipas A court martial is now trying the Imperial Generals Gosillo, Maret, and several others. The Liberals are very j ubilant over their success, while the hatred of the lower classes against the Americans is increasing..—Neio York Times. ASSAULT WITH A NEEDLE.—An assault of a pe- culiarly revolting character took place on Wednes- day on board a ship lying in the Canada Dock Liverpool. Two men, named Patrick Eoaatree and John Quinn, were engaged ia unloading a vessel. Ro.mtrec was employed in carrying corn-, from the ship, and Quinn in sewing up the bags in which the grain was carried on shore. A dispute arose be- tween the men as to the amount of work which a boy on board had been doings and in the course of the altercation QuinlJ stabbed lloantree in the left breast with a needle which be had been using in stitching up the sacks. The injured man-was con- veyed to the Northern Hospital, where he received prompt attention. The neadle penetrated the left lung, and the man was so seriously injured that his life is despaired of. His assailant was arrested. RROADHRAD AND HIS A TAKERS.—It appears that the non-unionist sawgrinders of Sheffield, not being able to obtain admission into the old union, were contemplating the formation of a new society, and looking about for some experienced he-ad to assist their inexperience. Broadhead seemed to them the most likely man. The calling of a maeting of the old union to consider whether or not Broadhead' should be expelled afforded them an opportunity^ and, fully expecting that he would be driven out of I his own society, they hastened to invite him to. take the management of theirs. Who understaad that Broadhead declines, the new and unexpected honour—he had no need to accept it—and advised the persons who waited on him that no good could result from splitting upthe old society into factions, and that they ought to. wait patiently until there was an opportunity 01 uniting all the sawgrinders Ilt-Y in one body. VEGETABLE HAIR.—Californian papers state that there is now dug out of the mountains of the Sierra Nevada Range a belter material for beds than has been hitherto available in the markets of the world. It is the soap root, which grows ia unlimited quantities in that region. It is a bulbous root, enveloped in a very tough supple fibre, resembling somewhat the husk of cocoauut in colour and ap- pearance, but nearly as tough as whalebone. The roots are dug chiefly by Chinamen, bound in bundles of 1001b. each and brought on poles to the factory. The first work is to put the roots through a picker similar to a. thrashing machine, which is run by horse power. This separates the fibre into a hair of eight or ten inches long, which is placed in a vat or steamer tiil it becomes flexible, and is free from all gummy or glutinous matter. It is then dried on flats in the sun, put through another fine picker turned by a. Chinaman, then taken aud twisted into ropes, at a common rope walk, then steamed again, which sets the curl. The ropes are then bound in bales and are ready for the market. The natural colour is brown, but it is often colored black, and an expert would find it hard to tell it from curled hairx—TQrmtQ Qlobe, COLLISION OFF THE WELSH COAST.—A STEAMTUG SUNK..—About eleven a.m. on Friday, as the National Steam Navigation Company's steamship Helvetia was passing Holyhead, she unfortunately camp into collision with the Liverpool steam-tug Prince Arthur, and sank her. The crew of the Prince Arthur were taken on. board the Helvetia and conveyed to Liverpool. The Helvetia sustained no damage. CRUELTY TO FOWLS.—On Thursday at the Leeds Police-court a poultrv dealer, named Dunn, was charged with cruelty to a number of fowls, consigned to him from Ireland. It was shown that the birds were very closely packed together, then left by the defendant at the railway station during all Sunday. without food or drink. The defendant was fined zC4 and costs. SIR F. CROSSLEY AND THE PEOPLE'S PARK.—The munificence of Sir F. Crossley, M.P., has again been displayed in reference to his noble gift of the People's Park, which cost £ 30,000. This gift to the corporation was subject to the condition of 300 guineas being an- nually paid out of the rates towards its proper main- tenance, and the payment of salaries to gardeners and park-keepers. The hon. baronet has now undertaken to endow the park, having last Wvednes;lay offered to the corporation the sum of £G,300, which, at five per cent, makes the sum of 300 guineas, hitherto paid an- nually by the ratepayers, but from which they are now most generously exempted A special meeting of the town council is about to be held on the subject. It is tea years ago last "Wednesday since the park was opened, having been laid out from designs by the late Sir J"oseph Paxton. The endowment of the park has thus been. made on the tenth anniversary of its opening, on Wed- nesday, the 14th August, 1857.- Yorkshire Post. EATEST BY A TIGER.—A correspondent of the Shef- field Daily Telegraph at Chinkiang writes to that paper as fo lows :—' F.)r a long time it has been stated by the natives that a kind of tiger, termed the 'dog-headed,' existed on the hills of Chir.kiang, and although the Chinese have at various times reported women and children being killed and eaten, yet, for want of suffi- cient evidence, they have never been credited by foreigners. The matter, however, has at length been. settled without doubt, for on the morning of the 15th instant there might have been seen within fifty yards of a foreign hong the remains of a poor woman who had been killed and eaten during the previous night-a thigh bone (fre<:turec!) and a pool of blood testifying to the strength and ferocity of the wild animal. It appears from a boy's statement that be was asleep with his mother in a mat cottage when he was awakened by an immense animal with a head like a dog dashing in and seizing his mother, who uttered but one cry; the boy ran to where other people lay,, but none durst approach, the beast, who had in the meantime dragged the woman a few yards from the hut, and, was devouring her; when daylight appeared they found but the one bone above mentioned and the pool of blood. The Chinese say the dog-headed tiger is far more formidable than the wolf, and that it was unseen before the Taiping rebel- lion." DISCOVERY OF AN ANCIENT FOREsT.-ln the course of the excavations at the West Dock Works, Hull, the navvies have come upon a stratum of dark soil, in which a number of trees in horizontal positions were met with. They are oak, and in excellent condition, and remarkably hard. Besides these interesting remains of a long past age, a large number of acorns and hazel nuts were found, and some oyster and mnsael shells. The discovery is the more in- teresting to geologists, seeing that trees were found at a depth of about 19 feet below the water line of the river. The wood was of a similar nature to that found when the Victoria Dock Extension was in progress, and goes far to prove the correctness of the supposition that Holderness and this part of the river were once covered with a dense forest. The trees at the Victoria were found at about the same depth. Several eminent geologists, we understand, have visited the West Dock, and examined the wood and the ground. It is said that many gentlemen have secured pieces of the oak, and had fancy articles made out of it. The oyster shelb-are characterised as very much larger than those ordinarily seen, but no i-ein,iiris, of other fish were f&uad.— IVest&rn Morning News. AN INCONTBNITJNT LOVER.—Dr. R. J Blanc, one of the captives in Abyssinia, writing from Magdala on the 30th of April, tells a story of a little excitement which had enlivened the monotony of life in captivity.. On the 8th two prisoners in that place, Abyssinians, ona who, had killed his mother by accident and had not been tried,, and Vj. Baric. the pon of a great Shum of Tigre, managed to open their chains, dressed themselves in women's clothing (in that country cnly a long shirt), and taking advantage of the market day when all the servants go down to the market-place they succeeded in getting out. The young murderer having contrived to. get off both lings walked faster than his companion, and passed the gates without suspicion. Lij Barie was least fortunate. He could only open one Ting, and was there- fore obliged to fix the chain on the other leg by means of a piece of e-loth. A young warrior, seeing what appeared to be a good-looking young girl.^&pproached to try on bar his powers of fascination. While looking to see if the ankleasorrespondeoi in elegance to the brightness of the eyes, he was somewhat surprised by seeing a leg com- pletely bandaged. A few yards further, a puff of wind throwing up the shirt exposed to his horror-struck gaze the unnaistakable rings peeping here and there through. the folds of the bandage. He called some soldiers at a distance, and with their help recaptured the prisoner. It is needless to say how brutally he was treated, kicked and beaten until iiis life was almost to be despaired of. The woman who gave him her shirt was literally cut to pieces;, having received more than 200 lashes on her bare back.

H»LI.OWAY'S PILLS.—These pills are more efficacious in streagthcning a iobilitated constitution than any other medicine in the world. Persons of a c-srvous habit of body, and all who are- suffering fsom weak digestive organs, or whose health has become deranged by bilious- affections, disordered stomach, or iver complaints, should lose-no time in giving these admirable pills a fair trial. Coughs, colds, asthma, or shortness of breath, are also witran the rangk of the sanative powers of this very remarkable medicine. The cures effected by these pills arc not superficial or temporary, but. complete and permanent. Thfiy are as miM as they are c-fficacious, and may be given with confi- dence to dsiicate femsiM and young children. There can ba no better example of the adaptation of modes of ilie, to changes in the demands made npon one or set of fkculties> tha.n the rapid extension both in the supply and in the demand for light wines. Singularly enough in the age of Elizabeth, which bore no httle resemblance to. our own, these light wines, or some of them at all evants, made the daily beverageof those men, by whom the intellectual faculties were hourly exercised, sometimes to the neglect of that physical labour to which the bulk of the people were devoted.-[Extract from W. and A.

OUMFHESTON CHURCH.—The sale of useful and fancy eealework, for the benefit of the funds for restoring a e8^on Church, took place on Friday and Saturday, 9th and 10th instant, and was, we are happy to say, tery successful. The little shop in which it was held • grated very tastefully. In the front window two fuchsias, in full blossom, (the gift, we are told, Ml88'Robson, of Penally,) were displayed, and were qUite an ornament to the street. Inside, the shop was ranged with equal taste, the articles for sale being dis- greate6t advantage, and the window at the olj, Which in reality looked on to a high blank wall, by tnagio arrangement now appeared to be a bank of S3> studded with bouquets of brilliant flowers, and %°^?ed at the top with magnificent fronds of the Os- reqalis fern.
