LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. TASKER'S BLUR COAT SCHOOL.—The pupils of this school presented on Wednesday last, a handsome Bible and marker to their master, Mr-E. H. Ellis, as a token of their regard and esteem. The presentation was made by the three monitors, Messrs W. Richards, James John, and Charles Davies, who, on behalf of the pupils, ex- pressed to Mr Ellis the goodwill which was entertained for him. Mr Ellis feelingly acknowledged the gift, and thanked them in warm terms for the very kind feeling they had manifested towards him. PEMBROKESHIRE Fox HUNT CLUIS.-A meeting of the members and subscribers of this Club was held at the t*U\r y u°n ,.14th in8t> t0 consider the notice given by Mr J. Henry Harries, of Heathfield, of his intention to give up hunting the Pembrokeshire country After Mine discussion, an arrangement was entered into by wbich Mr Harries will continue to hunt the country, as in the last season but when meets are appointed in the kwer (iislncts, the pack and hunters will' be brougbt to Haverfordwest1:the night previously, accommodation being provided for them by the Club in the neighbour- hood 01 tr.e Old Bridge. Mr Scourfield, who attended tbe meeting, placed his name down for the handsome subscription of £100 a year towards the maintenance of the pack, and when a suggestion was made that the town of 1 Haverford west shr.uld be solicited to contribute, he added a further sum of zclo to the town list. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—Tbe chairman and se. veral directors of this company are making a tour of in. specaon of all the company's lines, with the view of effecting important reforms in the management and ex- penditure. Every station on the several sections of the system is to be visited, and full inquiries are being made as to the staff maintained and the duties performed by each official. On Tuesday the 19th inst the manager of the company, together with the chairman and two directors, arrived in Newport, and after inquiring mi- nutely into the number of ofncials employed at the station and their duties, and various matters of detail connected Wltl? jtbe ^orkin« of the business at the station, pro- ceeded to Swansea, stopping at most of the stations on the way, and proceeded the whole length of the line to Miltord, returning next day to Swansea, whence they branched off to Hirwain, and proceeded thence to Ponty- pool-road on Thursday. At each station where the party stopped similar inquiries to those made at .New- port were made. PEMBROKE CASTLEMARTIN YEOMANJIY CAVALRY.— We are given to understand that the annual prize car- bine shooting of this popular corps, will be held som time during the latter part of the present month, or early in the month of October. We believe the cnmpe- tttion will take place either at Penally, or at Freshwater East Bav the former place would be certainly the most preferable of the two (or indeed of any other place in the county,) for the very obvious reason that the rangos are excellent, the ground dry, and the shooting could be carried on at three or four butts simultaneously, which would tie an immense advantage, in the saving of time besides this, Penally is within easy distance by rail, of most, parts of^ the country and although the members of the corps lie widely scattered, yet most of them could easily got to Penally by rail, from Haverfordwest. Mil- ford, Narbertb, Tenby or Pembroke and the last though by no means the least advantage, would be that the butts are within 300 yards of the station, and the village, "fc'bere the men could obtain shelter, (and refreshments if necessary) should any portion of the day be unpropitious, which is not at all unlikely at this season of the year. On the contrary Freshwater has not any of these ad- vantages, there being only one target there it is a con- siderable distance from a railway station, and without the slightest shelter from any sudden inclemency of the wea'h.-r..low-ever, be this as it may, we hope that the proceedings will be successful, as we have no doubt they will be, unaer the judicious arrangements that are now pending We understand that the gallant and respected commandant of tne corps, Major Baron Do Rutzen, and some of the other officers, are taking considerable inters' in this shooting competition when the event tr-nsnire^ we purpose giving a full and detailed account of "the' pro- ceedings. CRICKET.—Haverfordwest Grammar School v. Mil ford College.— Tbe return match between the above Clubs ■was played on Portfield, on Wednesday last, and resulted in the success of the Grammar School in one innings, with 40 runs to spare. Play commenced at 12 a.a, The Milford capfain having won the toss, sunt to the wickets Messrs Williams and Thomas to the b iwling of -C. P. and E. A. Saunders. It was soon evident that the bowling and fiolding of the Grammar School were too good for the batting of their adversaries, the wickets faHic s; rapidly, thus, 1, 2, and 3, for 12 4, 0 and G, for 17; 7,8 and. 9 for 27 and tho 10th fcr 28. Messrs Williams and Chitda phvod well for their respective scores of 11 and 10. The Grammar SchlJol then went in and descite the really good bowling of Messrs Wbi'- tington and Williams, and the strcnuuus exertions of Mr Starbuck at short leg, succeeded in scoring 98., E. A. Saunders taking the 'legor' with 33, while J. S. Davies and C. P. Saunders by good play, also got into doubles. The Miiford College in their second innings only scored 27, Williams and Whittington playing well for 16 and 6, and Starbuck a lively innings for 3, comprising (among other hits) a drive over the bowler's head, which elicited great cheering. We must not omit to mention a fine fiatch at long on by J. S. Dayies, and the excellent long stopping of F. Saunders, who did not allow a bye to pass. The following is the score MILFORD COLLEGE.

Fisheries having completed their sittings at Maryport, Cumberland, for the river Ellen, on Wednesday delivered judgment. In the case of the Nether Mill Fishery Mill-dam and salmon coop, the lowest dam on the rmr, and close to the tide way, the Chief Commissioner (Mr Paterson), after reviewing the evidence, documentary and oral, said there was sufficient to lead the Commissioners to the reasonable belief that the dam had existed before the 12':h of Edward IV. (1472), and that therefore it was now legal. The dam, however, was illegal in so far as there was no grating at the head and foot of the mill race in order to prevent the fish going up or the fry coming down the race. Their order would therefore direct proper gratings :1 9 to be made at tbc?e places. But though the dam and coop were legal, the Salmon Fshery Act," 1861, contained certain enactments (see. 20) requiring that during the annual close season the inscales, becks, tops, and rails of all cruives, boxes or cribs, and all planks and temporary fixtures used for taking and killing salmon, and all other obstructions to the free passage of fish through the cruivcs, cribs, or boxes, should be removed. Tnis sec- tion had been interpred by the Court of Common Pleas in 'Hodgson v. Little' to mean that not only the coop and becks, but the sluices through which the water passed into the coop must be entirely removed, and therefore it would be incumbent on the owner of this dam and coop (Mr Senhouse) to remove the sluices from before the coop, so aa to permit the fish to pass, and that whether the coop be used for fishing or not. (The coop had not been fished since 1860.) There must also be a clear opening of not less than four feet in width from the bottom to the top through this coop, whether used for fishing or not, during weekly close time. Then see. 12 of the Act of 1861 required that no mill dam should be used for catching salmon, unless it had a passage for fish in it which should have constantly running through it such a flow of water as would enable the fish to pass the dam during all the time that the coop was working. The object of that enactment obviously was that while the coop was enticing the fish one way, there should be an alternative left to the fish of going over the dam in another way. All these requirements, therefore, must be fulfilled before the coop could be legally worked and inasmuch as this decision would necessitate considerable alterations, the order of the Commissioners was directed not to take effect for one month from that date. Mr Senhouse said that the effect of the judgment would be to destroy the value of his mill, and take away the supply of water to the town of Workington which was taken from his premises. To this it was answered that the conduit bad only to be taken higher up to give the usual supply to the town, and that the principal mischief was the building a mill too large for the river, and which absorbed all the water of the stream in the summer time. In reference to other claims judgment was postponed, the cases being incomplete, but the chairman took occasion to state publicly what were the principles on which the legality of these dams must be established, as there ap- peared, to be so little appreciation shown of the general principles and maxims of law applicable to this class of cases. Referring to the ancient statutes, he said, be- ginning with Magna Charia, they prohibited dams and fixed engines in rivers which destroyed the breed of fish io u aalra°n J and in particular a statute of the 12th of Edward IY.expressly prohibited all persons from making or enhancing weirs, mill dams, stakes, becks, and so furth, which destroyed the fish. Hence it followed that whoever had since 1472 made any of these prohi- bited things, having such effects, had done so in violation or the maxim of public policy then proclaimed and since frequently repeated by the Legislature. Whad had been done in the river Ellen and other rivers was this D'Ims had been built across the river, diverting the water to a side channel, and discharging it into the bed of the river lower down, the object being to obtain a cheap motive power for a mill. If the mill was largo and the river small, the dam was to be built all the higher, and the consequence was that for period of the year varying from one to five months the original bed of the bed was almost dry; no lis b could come up to the dam, and when through occasional freshes they got there the dam was too high to pump over, and so the fish lay L iere much at the mercy of whoever chose to take them, To stop tne fish, then, was shortly to destroy the breed, and all degrees of destruction were found going on to- cording to the relative size of the dam and of the river and the caprice or ingenuity of the miller or poacher. If the dam had not a sufficiency of water running over it to allow the fish to go up, er if it was immoderately j aigb, it was difficult to see how it could be lc.al, and it could only be made legal by altering its proportions so as to comply with the requirements. All that the miller said in answer to these objections, was that when his ancestors first built the mill dam he never thought of the fish, never intended to stop or catch them, and was in. different to what became of them, for be was all the time only thinking of corn or leather, or some other manufacture. But if a person did an act which was pro- hibited by statute or by public policy, he must, be taken to have intended the natural consequences of that act. JNO apathy, ignorance, or credulity of a few individuals, or of any combination of individuals, could repeal an Act of Parliament, or reverse the policy which a scries of statutes had impressed on the general law of the land. lartial or temporary acquiescence could not put it be- yond the reach of any dissatisfied person at auy time to insist^ on reverting to the policy of the statutes unre- pea ea. It was the duty of the miller to make the necessary alterations in tho dams at his own cost. No W-a.\to uae his own property so as to injure °Ur S' ani^ ^ar ^0li3 could be use it so as to e an exPress enactment of the Legislature.

ROOSE PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held at the Shire Hall on Satur- day, before O. E. Davies, Esq, A. B. Starbuck, Esq, J. P. Jones, Esq, Capt Child, and Rev. P. Phelps. ALLOWING ANIMALS TO STRAY". Thomas Davies, of Marlues, was charged with allowing two pig? to stray. The defendant admitted the charge, and was fined a pennv with costs. Robert IVarloiv, of Saint Ishmael's was charged with allowing two pigs to stray. The case was dismissed. Lettice Sees, of Marloes, was summoned for allowing an ass to strav. The case was dismissed. David Davies was charged with allowing seven cows and four yearling3 to stray. The defendant was ordered to pay a fine of 5s 6d and costs. TRESPASS. Joseph Price, blacksmith, of Neyland, was charged with trespassing on a field belonging to Thomas Ford. The case was adjourned to give the parties an oppor- tunity of settling the case out of Court. NON-PAYMENT OF RATES. William Thomas was charged by the Overseers of the Parish of Roch with non-payment of rates. The defendant did not appear. The assistant collector produced the poor rate book, when the Clerk pronounced the rate to be invalid, no heading being to it. The adjudication on the claim for highway rate was adjourned till next sessions, the complainants not being prepared with the' necessary proof of its publication. PROTECTION ORDER. Selina Lewis, wife of John Lewis, of Waterson, ap- plied for a protection order. The applicant stated that she was married in December 1860, and that her husband had left her for three years, and had contributed nothing to her maintenance. The Bench granted the order.

THE WATER SUPPLY AND DRAINAGE OF THE TOWN. The following Is a copy of the report of Mr Brodie, C E, on the water supoly and drainage of the town, which was laid before the Corporation at their meeting on the 9th instant; — Carmarthen, 5th Sept 1867, To tile Town Council of the County oj the Borough oj Haverfordwest. GENTLEMEN,—I have, as requested, made a general inspection of the Town of Haverfordwest and its vicinity, with a view to the increase of the water supply and the improvement of the sewerage, and now beg to lay before you the following report: WATER SUPPLY. The Town is at present supplied with water from the following sources: viz, the Fountain and pumps near the top of Barn-sfreet: the drainage of Portfield collected and carried by pipes to an underground reservoir on Merlin's Hill, near the Green, and from these points the water is distributed by iron pipes through the principal streets. There is also a spring at the source of the Slade stream, another near City Road, and various wells over the town, The supply in dry weather is quite inadequate, and not more than half of what in these times is considered to be necessary for the health and comfort of a town of the importance of Haverfordwest. I find by measurements made by Mr Cecil that there is even in dry weatho:- n considerable loss of water in the night time from the Fountain and Pump adjoining. It is manifest, therefore, that this reservoir ought to be considerably enlarged so as to hold the present waste water, and then a greater number of houses could be supplied from this source. The supply of water to the Merlin's Hill Reservoir is quite insufficient in dry weather, and cannot be much increased except at a considerable cost. Storeage reser- voirs might be constructed on the higher ground at Portfield or towards Temperness (so us to collect the ,3 rainfall in wet weather) and connected with tho existing Water Mains. I am in doubt, however, whether sufficient water could be so stored, and even if it could be done, it wouid be at a great expense, and I >.m 0! opinion that you ought not to trust to such high level reservoirs, but to pump up from one of the streams at a low level where an ample supply can be obtained. This pumping might be done from the Cleddau at some point, above the reach of the town drainage, or at about the same cost from the fine spring at the old limestone quarry, supplemented, when required, by the adjoining stream. The water will have to be pumped up into the present reservoir, or, what would be better, into a new reservoir, situated on the highest part of Merlin's Hill, so as more completely to command the upper portions of the town. A small reservoir ought to be made near the source of the Slade stream and pipes laid from it to the streets in that neighbourhood so far as the supply would suffice. The same might be done with the Spring near the City Road it is well to have tho Fountain, the Fortfield Tank, am these independent reservoirs in case of any accident happening to the Pumping Machinery, to which you must look for your main supply. Cast iron pipes with stop cocks and fire plugs will bale to be laid in all the streets which want them, and a's0'j Cartlett and the top of Frendersast. Most of theoio pipes will probably have to be taken up and cleaned aB" the system of piping re-arranged.. The cost of all these works, viz,-steam engine aDd pump—reservoirs and pump,—on Merlin's Hill.T Slade and City Road-Extension of the Fountain Reservoir—The necessary piping, cocks, fire plugs, and other contingent works, I estimate ipproxitrataIV ? £ 3.800, which borrowed at 5 per cent and repaid "j equal instalments in 30 years, would involve an a°na„aI charge of £ 2™ The annual cost of working and maintaining the steam engine and pump would be about turn cock and repairs, say Total annual charge or taking the rateable value of the Borough 8" £ 16,0f'0, an annual rate in the pound of 8^d. SEWERAGE. The drainage in many places is very deficient. Severs;. of the open streams, or rather sewers, ought to be covers over, and if it could be afforded nearly the whole of the old sewers ought to be re-constructed at alowerlevets" as to drain the cellars of the houses adjoining. The stream between the Jail and High-street ought to be covered in by a sewer of brickwork, from near tbe Fountain to Castle Square, and then through Quav-street to an outlet near the Old Priory. This sewer be large enough to allow a man to pass through it, and into it as much of the sewage as possible ought to be conducted so as to fall into the river at a distance belo^ the town. The drainage of fill the houses of the upPet portions of the town will have to be carried into this ma¡!1 sewer either by constructing new subsidiary sew01* through the streets, or by altering and adapting l^e existing ones. The stream through North Parade and down to Old Bridge ought also to be covered up with a BricK Sewer, and carried well into the river by an iron and into this sewer most of the lower portions oM"' Town proper (except Quay-street) will have to he by connecting with the existing drains or constructs new ones. A sirnll sewer ought to be made through PrendergaS" and carried in front of the Lime Kilns to Cartlett, a", there after being joined by drains from Cartlett Cambrian Place through the flat to the river at any p°!n which may be thought to be desirable. As the quauti'; of sewage from these outlying portions of the town is great, it probably would not be necessary to carry t"1 further down than the mouth of Cnrtlctt Brook. rf These new works of sewerage, with the necess^ manholes, gull'es, &c, I estimate approximately will c°5, the sum of £ 4,000, which if borrowed at 5 per c-nt., repaid in 30 years in eqnwl instalments, will invoke Of annual charge of about X2 iO. or on a rateable value" £ 16,000 an annual rate per pound of13| I. If to this added, the annual charge for water supply, viz,—j it appears that the total annual rate for these propose<J improvements in Water Supply and Sewerage amount P6 pound to Is. I ana, gentlemen. Your obedient servant. R. BRODIB^,

HAVERFORDWEST PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held at the Shire Hall on Thurs- 4, »nd J„fc» DRUNKENNESS, &c. Owen WKingley, a hawker, was charged with drunken- ness. The defendant did not appear. The Mayor I think that every person who does not answer to bis summons ought to be punished most heavily. I wish that to be known. P. C.

The jury lists for the several parishes in the town were presented and verified in the usual manner.

PEMBROKESHIRE BATTALION OF VOLUNTEERS. The annual inspection of this battalion will take place on Portfield on Monday. We would impress upon the members of the different corps composing the battalion the necessity of attending the inspec- tion, as the presence of every member on that occa- sion is necessary to enable him to receive the capi- tation grant. The sum allowed by the Government is much less than sufficient to meet the expenses which are annually incurred, and we hope that each corps will muster its full strength on Monday, in order to secure as much as possible of the Govern- ment allowance. A good muster is desirable for the credit of the county, as well as for the financial interest of the different corps. The battalion will parade in the Castle Square at one o'clock. We may state for the information of the Haverfordwest Volunteers that Colonel Peel has, with that great liberality which has characterised his command since the formation of the Corps, doubled the value of the prize given by him for competition each month by volunteers who attend a certain number of drills. The amount has been increased from £ l to £ 2, which are divided into ten prizes as follows :— 1st, 10s; 2od, 7s 6d; 3rd, 5s; 4th, 3s 6d 5th, 3s Gd 6th, 2s Sd 7th, 2s; 8th, 2s 9th, 2s; 10th, 2s. The qualification required for this competition is attendance at three drills in the month and if the volunteer is present at four drills in the same period he will be provided with ammunition gratuitously. These prizes are useful as a means of habituating riflemen to the excitempnt of contests, and the con- ditions on which they are offered are excellent, being calculated to produce those qualities which distin- guish wall regulated corps—namely, good drilling and good shooting. The Haverfordwest Corps have the good fortune to be commanded by o#e of the ablest officers in the whole volunteer service—by one who has never spared expense in promoting their efficiency, and we hope that every member will endeavour to be present on Monday next, and also qualify to compete each month in the year for the prizes now so generously offered.
