JOHN THOMAS. Ynysyplwm, July 13,1840. To the Friends of the Church everywhere, and especially in the Principality of Wales. A Population of four thousand, with an early pros- pect of a great increase, has recently sprung up at MAES- TEG and its vicinity, in the hilly district of Glamorganshire, and is at this moment wholly destitute of Church accommodation. The Proprietors of the several Woiks in that place and neigh- bourhood aresensibty impressed with the responsibility incurred bv bringing together such large masses of the labouring popu- lation. and they have resolved upon ERECTING and ENDOW. ING a CHURCH, and BUILDING a PARSONAGE-HOUSE, as an efficient means, under God's blessing, of checking the pro- gress of evil, and of promoting the welfare and happiness of the district. To render their efforts available to these sacred objects, they confidently appeal to the benevolent sympathies and generous spirit 01 their fellow Christians. The expence of Buitding a Church to accommodate a thousand persons, with the Parsonage-HeiWA^rScljool-room, and Endow. mem, is estimated at about £6,00(f; The urgent necessity of making some strenuous effort to provide a Pastor for thi)) destitute Hock.,and to b-ing them into the fold of Christ, will speak forcibly to the hearts and consciences of their countrymen; and on their cordia) feeling they fully rely, without entering at large into minuter details. Subscriptions for the genera) object, or separately for the Building of the Church, the Endowment, or the School, will be received bv Tbe National and Provincial Bank, Bridgend; The Monmouthshire and Glamorgan Bank, Bridgend; The Glamorganshire Bank, Neath The London Joint Stock.

My LORDS, LADIES, AND GENTLEMEN, CIRCUMSTANCES of an important charact C having recently transpired, which tend in a malerial degree to affect my future prospects, I find myself placed under the painful obligation of retiring from the position of Candidate for the Office of Surgeon to your exceUent Infirmary-a post which, in the absence of events of very late occurrence, ] bad flattered myself would, through your kind intervention, have ultimately been entrusted lo my care. In begging thus publicly to announce my withdrawal, allow me, most respectfully but sincerely, to express myself not the less indebted for the kind patronage with which you have ho- noured me, and tendering you my warmest thanks, beg further to offer the assurance that, though circumstances have so far altered my position with respect to the future, as to render the situation of Surgeon to your Institution no longer i compatible with my in- terest, I shall always regard the distinction which yon have-con- ferred upon me with the liveliest satisfaction. ;I have Ihe honour to remain, My Lords, Ladies, and Gentlemen, Your most obliged and obedient Servant, THOMAS WILLIAMS, M.R., Surgeon.
