Archdeacon Clarke delivered his annual charge to the clergy and church wardens of the district at St. Mary's Church on Wednesday, Prayers were read by the Vicar, the Rev. J. H.

WESLEYAN HOME MISSIONS.—The annual sermons in behalf of this society were preached at the Wesleyan chapel in this town on Sunday week, by the Rev J. J. Sarjent of London, a gentleman who was for some years engaged as a home missionary in some of the worst parts of London. The following evening the annual public meeting was held at the same chapel, and was presided over by Mr W. P. Ormond, who made some pertinent remarks at the opening of the meeting. The Rev W. D. Walters, one of the ministers of the chapel, was then called upon to read the report, and as he bad himself been a home missionary in Builth for two years, he was able from personal experience to speak of the necessity there exists for such a society, and the good which it is accomplishing in many parts of the country. The Re-v James Hartle, the superintendent minister of the circuit, next addressed the meeting in a stirring and ex- cellent speech, after which the Rev J. J. Sarjent spoke for upwards of an hour, giving an account of his own labours among thieves and profligates in the metropolis. Collections were made at the close of each service, and the amount realised was larger than on former occasions. HAVERFORDWEST UNION.

Peel, and marched to Portfield for bat- talion drill. The drill embraced a great number of battalion movements, in which several rounds of blank cartridge were fired. and was executed in a satisfactory manner. The battalion was put through a course of skirmishing drill, and the same exercises were also done by the companies independently. At the termination of the drill, the volunteers returned to Castle Square where they were dismissed. HAVERFORDWEST COUNTY COURT.—The usual monthly court was held on Friday week, before H. R. Bagshawe, Esq, Judge.—Mtyrick v Davies —Mr Lascelles, instructed by Mr Price, made an application to His Honour in this case, which had been adjourned from a previous court. The action had been brought by the plaintiff to recover double the value of certain premises which be alleged had been held over by the defendant, and was adjourned pending the result of an action for ejectment which had sine been tried at the Pembrokeshire Assizes, and decided in favour of defendant. His Honour made and order for payment of costs by the plaintiff, who was not repre- sented in Court.Davies v. Reynolds.—This was an action for damages for an assault committed by the defendant on the plaintiff—Mr Lascelles (instructed b) Mr Price) appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr W. John for the defendant The assault had been committed at the Greyhound Inn, Haverfordwest, on the 22nd of January. The plaintiff stated that while he was engaged in selling a mare to Mr Phillips, the defendant interfered, and on his telling him that he had no business to inter- fere, the defendant struck him with great force on the forehead, A witness named Phillips proved that the defendant struck the plaintiff twice, and other witnesses were called to prove the extent of the injury received. The defendant deposed that the plaintiff called him a liar, rogue, and blackguard, and that he then struck him twice, but not very hard. His Honour ordered the defendant to pay £10, and costs on the higher scale. ROOSE PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held at the Shire Hall, on Satur- day, before A. B. Starbuck, Esq, O. E. Davies, Esq, J. P. Jones, Esq, J. M. Jones, Esq, S. Harford, Esq, and Capt. Child. DRUNKENNESS AND RIOTOUS CONDUCT. John Thomas, butcher, of St. Thomas Green, was charged with drunkenness and riotous conduct at Mil- ford on the 17th instant. The defendant denied the charge. P. C. David Evans deposed that about six o'clock in the evening of the 17th he was sent for from the house of John Thomas in the Front Street, Milford. He saw a crowd before the bouse, and the defendant was making a noise. He asked hira why he made the noise, and he said he wanted his wife. He reques'ed him to be quiet, when he replied he would not for 20 policemen. The defendant was nearly drunk, and very much excited He (witness) assisted in putting him out of the house, when he attempted to strike him with a stick, and he locked him up in the Police Station. The defendant denied that he was drunk. He was very much excited, because his wife was withheld from him and he went to Milford to demand her restoration, when he was seized by the policeman and put in the Lock-up. The Bench fined the defendant 5s and costs. Thomas John and George Jenkins were charged with drunkenness. Both cases were withdrawn on the defendants consent- ing to pay the costs. INDECENT ASSAULT. John Young, of Portfield Gate, was charged with as- saulting Julia Rees, wife of Thomas Rees, a moulder re- siding at Carmarthen. Mr Price appeared for the defendant, who denied the charge. The complainant deposed that she was then living at Prospect plsce, and that she sold knitting work. She knocked at the front door of the defendant's house at Portfield Gate, when the defendant came to the garden wall, & told her that there was no one in the house but an. old man. He said there were servants at the back, and he called out Eliza,' but no one answered. He then tried to pull her inside the door, and placing his hand over her mouth he bebaved indecently towards her. He went away, but came back again, and remarking that she had not gone, he struck her twice, and ill-treated her. In cross-examination, the complainant said she did not know her husband was called Carmarthen Tom.' Her husband had been in trouble, but had paid for it. He had come to Haverfordwest to join the Militia, and being a few days before the training, she was endeavour- ing to earn something by selling knitting work. She did not refuse to leave the house the defendant never asked her to do so. She did not fall over the mat while the defendant was putting her out of the house. The defendant did not find her in the house, nor did she tell him that she was waiting for the mistress who had promised to give her a penny. Mr Price said that unfortunately there was no one pre- sent when the affair occurred, and the whole case rested upon the evidence of the complainant whose antecedents would not bear examination. The defendant positively de- nied the charge, and his version of what took place was simply this: — He was in charge of the house for Mr Skone, and his wife being gone to market, the doors were locked. Observing that one of the doors was open, he went in, and found the complainant there. He enquired her business, and she stated that she was waiting for the mistress, ,who had promised to give her something. He requested her to leave, and as she would not go, he en- deavoured to turn her out of the house, and in doing so the complainant stumbled over the mat and fell down. The defendant bad beeu married for some years, and had always borne a good character. The defendant asserted that the charge was trumped up, and all that he could do was to produce witnesses who would speak as to his general character. Mr Skone, the defendant's employer, deposed that the defendant had been a married man for 15 years, and had bepn employed by him for 14 years. His moral character was good: be had never heard anything against him. Mr W. Phillips, of Market-street, and Mr Thomas, of Portfield Gate, gave the defendant a good character. The Bench were of opinion that the case was proved. They did not think the complainant had come there to perjure herself, and they should fine the defendant £1 and costs. BREACH OF THE PEACE Ann Wallers was charged by William Davies, of Goadalope, with using language towards him calculated to produce a breach of the peace. Mr Price appeared for the defendant. The complainant deposed that he sent a message to the defendant requestine her to keep her fowls out of his field of hay, and since then the defendant had continually abused him, calling him by very offensive names. William Hooper deposed that he beard the complainant call the defendant by very offensive names. The Bench dismissed the case. NON-PAYMENT OF BATES. Philip Hire Hitchings was summoned by the Overseers of St Ishmaels for non-payment of rates. Neither party appeared, and the case was struck out. STRAYING ON THE HIGHWAY. Several persons were convicted for allowing animals to stray on the highways.

J,, M BROK E -DOCKR YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.—On Wed- nesday evening, the 22nd inst, a lecture was delivered in the rooms of the association by E. Chevallier, Esq, on the Life, Times, and Character of St. Paul.' The chair was occupied by Mr Allen. 'J. Morgan, Esq, opened the meeting. The lecture was very interesting and instructive, and was continued for nearly an hour and a half. At the close a collection was made accord- ing to announcement, in aid of the Bible Stand to be erected at the Havre Maritime Exhibition in June, 1868. The lecture was attended by a respectable audience, and the collection was good. THE GARRISON.—On Thursday the 23rd inst, Major General A, J. Taylor, Inspector General of Artillery, accompanied by his aide-de-camp, Capt. S. J. Nicholson, R.A., commenced his annual inspection of the forts at this place. On Thursday morning, he inspected the 4th battery, 7th brigade Royal artillery, on the Barrack hill, when they went through their drill with the new Snider rifle carbine in an efficient manner. In the afternoon they went through the big gun drill at the Western battery, in good style. On Friday and Saturday, the gallant general, accompanied by his staff, inspected the following forts on the Haven, viz, Hubberston, South Hook, Dale Point, Stack Rock, Thorn Island, and Popton. ROME MissMNS.—On Tuesday evening week, the 21st inst, the Home Missionary Meeting in connection with the Wesleyan Methodist Society was held in Wesley chapel, Pembroke Dock. The meeting was addressed by the Rev John Harding. (superintendent of the circuit), ( the Rev E. R. Edwards, of Tenby, late Home Missionary in the city of Exeter, and by the Rev John J. Sergent, late Home Missionary in the east of London, Deputa- tion from the Ptrent Society. The Rev A. B. Holford, of Pembroke rend the report. This meeting was one of very great interest. The Rev Mr Edwards and the deputation excilpd considerable interest by giving some thrilling accounts of iheir past labours. We were sorry that the chapel was n' t filled with attentive bearers, and we do long for the time when the christian public will give more earnest attention tu the cause of Home Mis- sions. The collection was very good considering the limited number of hearers.— Communicated. WESLEY CHAPEL.- On Sunday morning week the Rev. John Harding preached a very eloquent and impressive sermon in the above chapel to a large and respectable congregation. The rev gentleman selected his text from St. Paul's Epistle to the Colossians, 4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, &c.' This was the second sermon the rev gentleman has preached in succession from the above text and has another yet to come in due course. In the course of the rey gentleman's sermon he very clearly pointed out some J of the duties of the followers of Christ in tbe present dftf* He remarked that the day was not far distant when the church of Christ would have to shake herself from the dust, and arm herself for the task of standing out boldly for the Master's cause against those who will endeavour to over run and crush her. He believed that the Irieb church question which was now agitating the people of England and her great House of Commons was not a mere question of Church or State, of conformity or of non-conformity; but of pure protestant Christianity against popery. The question is—shall popery hare the ascendancy or no ? He therefore hoped that the faithful followers of Christ would stand nobly for their Master, and he exhorted all to prayerfully and earnestly consider the question. PEMBROKE DOCK GARRISON.—On Monday week a young soldier named Edward Byrne, belonging to the 4th battery 7th brigade R.A., was buried with the usual honours in the military cemetery. The youth, who was only 21 years of age, was stationed at Thorn Island Fort, and on Friday evening, upon coming from 4ngle to go off to the Fort, being alone, he musf have missed his way and fallen over tbe cliff on to tbe beach below, a height of some 80 feet, as be was there on the following morning, his neck being brokeu, his skull shockingly fractured, and his head and neck literally driven into the cavity of his chest. Death was of course instantaneous. An inquest was held upon the body at Angle, before J. C. James, Esq, the coroner and a jury, when a verdict of accidental death was re- corded. His remains were taken from Angle to Paterp on a gun carriage, for interment. Deceased was a roost quiet young man and was universally respected by both officers and men, and much regret is felt at his melan* choly and untimely death.
CARMARTHEN.
CARMARTHEN. THE RECENT BREACH OF PROMISE DASS AT CARMARTHEN. IOSBS V. JAMES. Court of Exchequer, April 20. This as an action for breach of promise of marriage tried before Mr Baron Pigott, at Carmarthen, when a ▼erdict jvas returned for the plaintiff, damages £ 250. Mr Allen now moved for a new trial, on the ground the improper reception of certain evidence, and that the damages were excessive. The plaintiff was a young lady, the daughter of a farmer, and the defendant, who WISO also a farmer, pleaded that she had allowed other men to be intimate with her, and that she bad so conducted het" self as to lead to a reasonable suspicion that she had been guilty of immorality. A t the trial the learned allowed evidence to be given, in the first instance, oft^f general good character of the plaintiff, and the learned counsel contended that as the alleged misconduct a specific character, such evidence was not admissible. He also argued that as the defendant only paid t40 year for his farm, and had very limited resources, t40' damages were too large. The Lord Chief Baron, while admitting that inaction4 of this nature evidence of general good character was not admissible, though it was admissible in this case, because the pleas made a general allegation of misconduct, and be did not see how it could be met except by calling II number of persons who had known the young lady Of several years, to prove that her conduct in the cotuPOI31 both of men and women was perfectly modest and decof" ous. He did not think the damages were excessive. Mr Baron Pigott could readily understand why jury gave rather large damages, inasmuch as a nufflbe' of young men were called by the defendant, who state" that they had been in plaintiff's bed-room while she 990 there, and that they had all got into bed togethet* witnesses whose evidence they entirely disbelieved. Rule refused.

T E N B Y. PEMBROKE AND TEN BY RAILWAY.—On Tuesday week Messrs Davies and Roberts, the contractors for this rail- way, commenced work on the short line at Carmarthen, which it is expected will be finished in about three weeks, and that by June the London and North-Western Company will he at Carmarthen, by which time the Grsat Western Company will have laid down the narrow-gauge between Whitland and Carmarthen, when our railway will be in direct communication with the narrow-gauge system of the kingdom.. TOWN COUNCIL.—On Tuesday last an election took place to fill the vaoaney made by the retirement of Mr Morris Phillips, when the candidates were Mr William Malcolm Harries, commercial traveller, and Mr Robert Lea, painter. The former had been nominated by Joseph Craven, Esq, of Lexden Terrace, and Geycg Chater,. Esq, of Tuder Place, and the latter by Mr William Gibbs, of the South Parade, and Mr John Gifford, of Julian Street. The following was the state of the poll at its close Mr W. M. Harries. 102 Mr R. Lea 91 Majority for Mr Harries 11 POLICH COURT, Saturday, April 18th. Before the Mayor and the Rev T. H. Dunn. — Jllan Palmer, butcher, of Narbertb, was charged by Mr H. O. Morton, attorney, Narberth, with an assault. Fined JE1, and 03. costs. Money paid. Monday-Before the Mayor and the Rev T. H. Dunn-Michael Shields, master of the sloop Nymph, lying in Tenby Harbour, was charged by Mr Robert Harrison, lessee of the market tolls, with refusing to pay Is 6d toll for selling potatoes in the mar- ket. Ordered to pay the amount claimed, together with costs. Wednesday—Before the Mayor, G. White, Esq., and the Rev T. H. Dunn. — Thomas Phillips, labourer, was brought up in custody, and charged by the police with assaulting them in the execution of their duty on the previous day. Fined 10s, damage 2s 6d, and 2s 6d costs. Money paid. DRINKING FOUNTAIN.—The second drinking fountain presented to the inhabitants of Tenby by the Mayor, Dr Dyster, has been erected in Castle Square, under the superintendence of the Corporation surveyor, Mr Grif- fiths. The design is simple and appropriate, admirably adapted for the purpose for which it is intended. The fountain itself is of cast iron, from the Saracen Works, Glasgow, placed upon an octagonal base, formed of two courses of skilfully dressed mountain limestone. The place selected for the fountain is, we think, one of the best that could be obtained in the town. Not only will the shapely erection prove an ornament to that part of the town, but from the nearness to the Harbour will be almost invaluable in the hot summer season to the sea- faring members of our population. Nothing will more surely tend to the decrease of intoxication than a plentiful and wholesome supply of clear spring water easily to be obtained. Such a supply on such conditions will be provided by the new drinking fountain.
