THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE FOR NORTH WALES. MEETING OF THE COUNCIL. The first meeting of the council of the University College tor Noith Wales was held last Saturday at the Q leen's Head Cafe, Bangor. The following gentlemen were present -Ba,l of Powis (president of the college), Mr Richard Davies, M.P. (vice- president), Mr John Roberts, M.P. (honorary treasurer). Sir R. A. Cunlitfe, Bart., M.P. Capt Verney, Messrs W. llathboue, M.P.; althur Wyatt, J. R. Davies, W. A. Darbishire. J. Kobetts, bryn-adda; R. Albert Jones, Liverpool; T. Gee, J. Lloyd Griffith, W. Williams, inspector of schools; t.be Revs Dr Edwards, Bala; D. Row- lands, and E. Herber Evans. Letters of apology for non-attendance were read from the Bight Hon. G. Osborne Morgan (vice-president), Mr Stuart Rendel, M.P the Rev SimueI Davies, Mr A. C. Humphrey Owen, Mr Marchant Williams, and Mr Hudson. The Earl of Powis having taken the chair, Mr Rafhbone, M.P., said that the first busi- ness the meeting had to attend to was the election of a chairman for the council. It was desirable that a gentleman be elected who resided near the locality, in order that he might be able to attend all the meetings. It was also desirable that some one be elected who should possess some academical standing, and be experienced inlthe manage- ment and foundation of such institutions. He said he had great pleasure in proposing Col. the Hon. W. E. Sackville West, M.A., as first chairman of the council, as that gentleman pos- sessed all the necessary requirements. The pro- position waa seconded by bir B. A. Cunliffe, and was unanimously agreed to. Mr John Roberts, M.P., proposed that Mr Rathbone, M.P., be ap- pointed vice-chairman of the council. Captain Verney seconded the proposition, which was adopted: consequently, in the absence of Col. West, Mr Rath none took the chair. Mr W. C. Davies (secretary) read the following letter from the Lord President of the Council "To W. 0. Davies, Esq., University College of North Wales, Bangor. Education Department, March 7, 1884. CI Sir,-I am desired by the Lord President to inform you that he has nominated Mr P. P. Pen- nant, Mf J. Lloyd Griffith, and Mr W. Williams (Her Majesty's Senior Inspector of Schools for Wales) as members of the council of the University College for North Wales. his lordship desires me to express the rpgret with which he has heard that the interests of the college were likely to be endangered by the fact that the recent elections to the council by the court of governors had resulted in the choice of so many gentlemen representing one class only of its supporters as to leave an inadequate share of re- presentation to others, who had given the college valuable and important assistance. He is informed that this result has arisen from no wish or intention to make the council otherwise than a fairly re- presentative body, but from the accidental working of a first election, and he cannot doubt that care will be taken to rectify this as early as possible. "He understands that a suggestion has been made —in which he fully concurs-that it would be convenient that casual vacancies should be filled up by the council itself, subject to the confirma- tien of the court of governors, at the firflt subsequent annual meeting, and he proposes to insert a provision to that effect in the charter.—I asa sir, your obedient servant, PATRICK UCMIN." It was then resolved, after some discussion, that the council be divided into the following com. mittees:-I, Finance; 2, Statutes and Charter; 3, General Purposes; and 4,Staff Inquiry. Three mem. bers of a committee to form a quorum; the officer of the court and council of the college being ex-officio members. It was proposed by Mr Gee, and seconded by Mr Darbishire, that the com- mittees be requested to report only to the council the various questions which might from time to time be submittedto them. It: was decided that the staff inquiry ;I committee consist of all the officers of the court of governors and council, with power to add to their number from the council.— Mr W. 0. Davies's appointment as general secretary was confirmed, and the question of obtaining temporary premises for the college was referred to the general purposes committee.—The motion, which was in the name of Mr Rathbone, M.P., with reference to the election of a committee by the different colleges in Wales to consider what further steps shall be taken to complete the system of elucation in the Principality as suggested by Lord Aberdare's Departmental Commission, was deferred for consideration at a future meeting. Regarding the Government grantl,of £ 4000,it was resolved that, as the opening of the college would not take place until next October, no application be made for the grant until that date, with the view of the continuance of thegrant now enjoyed by the Aberystwyth College. It was resolved that the following chairs be established on the first opening of the college:— (1.) History, English Language, and Literature; (2.) Logic, Philosophy, and Political Economy; (3.) Chemistry; (4.) Classics; (5.) Mathematics, pare and applied (6.) Physics. The usual stt. pend attached to each chair was fixed at £ 3o0 per annum, which might be augmentable by a certain proportion of fees, so that the guaranteed amount I for each chair might not be under £ 400 per an. num. The council pledged itself not to favour any candidate, either directly or inferentially, as it was understood that such would prejudice rather ) than further the claims of any candid-ate.. t It was further resolved to appoint 03 principal one who would also take one of the chairs, tte combined salary guaranteed to be £ 800 per annum, an amendment in favour of the amount being 4700 being lost by a large majority. It was also decided that applications for the posts of principal and professorships be in the hands of the secretary by 15th April. The meeting, which lasted upwards of three hours, was closed by a vote of thanks to the chairman.

II PORTDINORWIC. CONCEPT.—On Saturday night a concert was given at Bryn Menai Calvinistic Motbod4st I Chapel. Part was taken in the proceedings by the British School Juvenile Choir, under the leader- ship of Mr T. J. Williams, the schoolmaster. Miss Williams, Peu raUt Cottages, also rendered several pieces, in her own exquisite style. Two competitions took place during the evening, one in reciting and the other in singing. The prizes were awarded to Mr W. E. Thomas, Menai-street, and Mr Robert Williams, Augusta-place. The proceeds were devoted to a charitable purpose.

PORTDINORWIO NOTES In my Notes" last week I said I should have something rich in my next, but I find that, alarmed probably by my remarks, the parties referred to have seen the error of their ways and reformed. I must, therefore, "clutch like a drowning man at any straw I can get hold of." A certain young person (who thinks herself the iiret lady in the place, owing to her supposed Jim qualities) was told the other day that she was not seen out so often now as she used to be, and replied that she was afraid of going out now because of "Country Lad." "Country Lad" would bo vary sorry to do any ycung lady in this village any harm, as he thinks too much of them, and trusts that he will not be the innocent cause of keeping such good creatures as they are in doors. The usual monthly meeting of the Portdinorwic Conservative Club was held on Thursday last, several members being present, and a very good paper was read by Mr Yates, and speeches were made by Mr Lloyd Williams and others. Capt Stewart occupied the chair. A pleasant evening was spent, and after a cordial vote of thaDks to the chairman the proccedingi terminated. • • There was also a meeting of the Portdinorwic Young Men's Society on Friday evening. Politics was the subject. Mr William Parry made a speech on behalf of the Blues, and Mr Henry Francis on behalf of the Yellows. Both were very creditable to the speakers, and caused much amusement to the rest of the members. COUNTRY LAD.

CONWAY. Mr Wood, of Bedlondeb, has been elected high sheriff for this county, and he bas appointed Mr William Jones, solicitor, as under sheiiff, and the Rev H. Reee., vicar, as his chaplain. LIBERAL ASSOCIATYON.-At a general meeting of this association, held at the committee-room in Rose Hill-street, on Saturday evening, Mr Crewe Price (the vice-president) occupying the chair, the following resolution was unanimously agreed to: —<* That the secretary (Mr Abram) be requested to write to the county and borough members urg- ing them to support the proposal that the Mer- chant ShipDing Bill be referred to the Grand Com- mittee on Trade." BOARD OF GUARDIANS.—The fortnightly meeting of this board was held at the Work- house on Friday last, the following members being pre3ent --The Rev D. Bankes Price (in the chair), Messrs Thomas Parry, J. Davies, A. Borthwick, Edward Jones, J. W. Jones, A. Foulkes, J. Williams, J. Roberts, and the Rev Edward Hughes. Paupers' Sent —Owing to the non-attendance of the chairman (the Rev W. Yenables Williams) and the clerk (Mr T. E. Parry), Mr Edward Jones pro- posed the adjournment of the above until next meeting, which was seconded by Mr Parry and agreed to.

MENAI BRIDGE. PROPOSED LOCAL BOARD.-A public meeting, called iu accordance with a requisition signed by owners of property and ratepayers, was held at the British School, Menai Bridg?, laot night, under the presidency of Mr John Morgan, Cadnant (churchwarden), for the purpose of taking the preliminary steps to have a local board established tor the district, which is now under the jurisdiction of the Rural Sanitary Authority of the Bangor and Beaumaris Unioq. A resolution was unanimously passed, on the motion of the chairman, seconded by Mr Thomas Jones, Bryn Owen, to the effect that a local board was desirable, and that the Local Government Board should be approached with a view of having one formed. It was also decided to request the Local Government Board to fix the qualifications as low as possible, and that the pro- posed board should consist of nine members.

BEAUMARIS. GONGBBQATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL.—The quar- terly meeting of the above school was hela last Sunday, in the chapel, at two o'clock in the after- noon. We regret that of late these meetings have been somewhat of a failure, but it was clear a little before the school commenced that the meeting would be a success. The school was opened in the usual manner by singing, reading a portion of Scripture, and prayer, after which Mr Lloyd, one of the deacons, took the chair. The following programme was rendered Hymn, "I will follow Jesus," by the children's cho'r. Reci- tation, the forty-fifth Psalm, by Master W. Owen. Hymn, "Why net follow me now?" by the children. Recitation of the Tenth Commandment by the whole of the school. Catechising of the children on the 24th chapter of Genesis, by Mr H. Thomas. Hymn, The River of Jordan," by the children. Questioning the young mea on "The Parable of the Ten Virgins by Mr John Wil- liams. Hymn, "Beautiful Words," by the children. Recitation, the eleventh chapter of Hebrews, by Master Thomas Hughes. Question- ng the whole school on the third chapter of Hebrews by the chairman (Mr Lloyd). Hymn, There is a Fountain filled with Blood," by the children. The meeting was brought to a conclu- sion by prayer. We are glad to record that the meeting was a thorough xuccess in every respect, the replies to the questions put by Messrs Lloyd, Thomas, and Williams being most satisfactory. Miss Williams also deserves a word of commenda- tion for the creditable manner in which the juvenile choir trained by her performed their duties.

I HOLYWELL. I LOCAL JOTTINGS BY RAMBLER. THE LOCAL BOARD ELECTION. The time for the annual election of members for I the local board is drawing very near, and the question presents itself whether we shall have a contested election or not. It will be within the recollection of all of the readers of this paper | what a lot of unpleasantness, bother, and unne- cessary expense there was with the. last election. The whole time of the board for some months ap- peared to have been devoted to discussing some irregularities which were stated to have been com. mitted by some of the distributors of the voting papers, and there appeared to have been but little ground for complaint when the matter be came thoroughly investigated. I hope that at the I forthcoming election efforts will be made to avoid any possibility of the recurrence of the cause of complaint. There is no doubt that the whole system of e'ection is unsatisfactory. The voting papers which are issued do not give the voter any assistance or directions as to the recording of his vote. The instructions which are on the voting pipers are very ambiguous, and many votes are improperly recorded. Moreover, the system of delivering voting papers at the residences of the voters cannot be commended, as it affords such opportuvities for being tampered with, and it can- not be too soon for an act to be passed altering the mode of etectiug our local "members of Par. liament." In addition to this, when the voting papers are filled in, they are collected by the per- son appointed, and although we assume that no advantage is taken, yet there is a possibility of the papers being in some way altered or interfered with. A very simple addition or obliteration suffices to make void a vote, and whilst the possi- bility of the votes being interfered with remains, every effort should be made to remove all euch chances. Up to the present the local board have not provided bags for the collections, and I think that were they to do so the ratepayers would have some degree of satisfaction. The retiring members this year are Dr Jam- s Williams, Mr E. J. Davies, Mr John .Tones, Mr John Carman, and Mr David Williams (High-strest), and up to the present I have not been able to ascertain whether there will be a contested election or not. There does not appear to be a large number of aspirants for the I office, and I think it is well for the town that there should not be many. In my opinion, it would be impossible to elect better men than the retiring members, who have each served the town well, ]' and if they were re-elected it would be a saving of | about £ 20, an amount which I am inclined to think will be very serviceable to the board during the ensuing year. The financial position of the board is not of the very best, and judging from the way in which the estimate was cut down last year there is every prospect of a heavy rate this year, and any amount saved will become very service- able. If a larger number of candidates are nomi- nated than there are members to be elected, I hope that.some effortwill be made to prevent an elec- tion, which will serve no good purpose. THE SCHOOL BOA&D. Frcm the account of the proceedings of the Holywell School Board, at their meeting on Mon- day last, I find that the new board have begun to benefit the ratepayers and to reduce the rates by making an additional rate of one penny in the pound to provide the. funds to pay for the recent election! When the members were returned it was expected that the ratepayers would be relieved of some part of their burden. As the school board rate is already very heavy, the additional demand will be very keenly felt, and complaints will be loud. Surely there must be some way of econo- mising. A rate of Id in the pound was never for a momeut contemplated as the sum we should have to pay for the privilege of having a school board, and the members would do good service, and make good use of. their term of office, if they could in any way lessen rather than increase our rates. I was informed that one of the promises made at the election was to reduce salaries, but although the election took place in November, I have carefully watched the reports from month to month, and have only found that the salary of an official, who naturally helps to earn a good grant by enforcing the attendance of scholars, was re- duced a few pounds. I am afraid we are again to be disappointed in our expectations of a "re- duction of rates," and that we must submit to the inevitable. DEATH AT THE WOKXHOUSB. The customary quietude of the Holywell Work- house was seriously marred on Thursday night, when it was found that one of the inmates, a young boy named James Edmunds, a native of Flint, was missing from the house. A diligent rearch' appears to have been made for the boy, whojwas both dumb and of weak intellect. He, however, was not found until Friday morning,' when his dead body was found at the bottom of one of the water tanks of the premises It appears that the boy was fond of prying about, and on the night in question he must have accidentally got into the tank and was drowned. It does not appear that any blame is attached to any of the officials, yet ¡I cannot re- frain from saying that the possibility of becoming drowned so easily should not exst on premises where there are always a namber of boys who are always disposed to "pry" into all sorts of places. I hope that the tank will be protected more effici- ently, and therebyjprevent a similar unfortunate occurrence. SCHOOL OF AliT. A generous offer has been made by Mr B. W. Hughes, of Upper Downing, an offer which I think it the duty of the local board to entertain. It is well known that Mr Hughes possesses high ability as an artist, and with the view of affording the young people of Holywell an opportunity of studying art, Mr Hughes has kindly offered to place a room at their disposal, and further, to act as teacher himself until such a time as another is appointed. Such a generous offer isjnot often made, and it would be a great misfortune if it is not ac- cepted. The study of art has a great tendency to elevate the mind, and I would be pleased to find that immediate steps are being taken to accept the ofter. THE UPPER MARKET. I am Impatient to see a start made in the con- templated alterations. What can the delay arise from ? About jE250 have been collected, and there will be a good sum realized by the recent concert. In addition to this, the Duke of Westminster has promised to subscribe, therefore I think there are sufficient funds to make a start. The committee a vertised a premium of three guineas for the best plan of the alterations required, but no plan was received. What need was there to advertise ? I am inclined to believe that we have an architect in our midt who would readily give his services for the good old town" if he was only asked to do so. The committee require the advice of one who has had experience and is competent to devise a plan which can be carried oat in both an econo- mical and satisfactory way, and I feel assured they would have no difficulty in getting what they re- quire, if they only seek it. I shall be glad to see that something is done in this matter at once.

DEATH OF MR CHARLES ADAMS, LATE DEPUTY CHIEF CONSTABLE OF i-LINr* SHILTE. Three months asro we chronicled wfth regret the resignation, which was xendered necessary through failing health, of Mr Charles Adams, superintendent of police for the division of Mold, and deputy chief constable of Flintshire, and in doing so we gave expression to a hope that, with complete rest fromjWork.Mr Adams's health might be restored, so that he could enjoy for many years in his retirement from official work that respect and esteem which it was his fortune to experience' during his official career. But He who rules all things has willed otherwise, and it is now our melancholy duty to record the death of our friend, which occurred at eleven o'clock on Thursday night last, in the fifty-ninth year of his age. Mr Adams was a native of Uttoxeter, in Staffordshire, and he entered the police force of tnac county at the early age ot nineteen. After nine years service, he left the Staffordshire constabulary to improve his position, and joined the Buckinghamshire force, where he remained for eleven years. At therevifion of the police force, about 24 years ago, he joined the Flintshire constabulary, being appointed superintendent of the Hulywell division, where he remained for eleven years. On the retirement from the force of Superintendent Thomas, Mr Adams was appointed superintendent of the Mold division, and deputy chief constable, being succeeded at Holywell by Inspector Hughes, formerly of Mold, which offices he filled for nearly thirteen years, making a total service in the police force of over 38 years, during which period his] character remained unblemished, the manner in which he discharged his duties, always giving general satisfaction. Seldom, indeed, does it fall to the lot of anyone holding a responsible official position as the deceased did to be so universally esteemed and respected; but in this case it is not to be wondered at, as the deceased in the discharge of his duties was cour. teous to all persons irrespective of their positions in life, although from the nature of his duties he might frequently, and with just cause, have been excused had he been otherwise. In speaking of the dead, the general tendency is to palliate their faults, and to extol their good qualities, but we know that in the case of Mr Adams we are strictly correct when we state that he was respected by fill who knew him, and by those who were intimate with him he was highly esteemed. As a public official he was wise, courteous, and discreet, and in his private capacity he was the embodiment of what we expect a friend to be. His widow has lost an affectionate partner in life, and his chil- dren a kind and considerate father. On all sides sympathy is expresped towards them in their sad bereavement, aud ve hope the demonstrations of respect towards the deceased which they have seen may be some consolation to them in their affliction. The health of the deceased gentleman began to fail him about four years ago, when he was attacked with diabetes. He, however, then secured good medical treatment, and after a stav at Dr Hunter's Hydropathic Establishment at Matlock, where he had the best possible treatment and advice, he returned with his health much im- proved, having been completely cured of diabetes. He afterwards became unwell through the effects of a cold. About twelve months ago he contracted a severe cold, which resulted in permanent bron- chitis, and latterly h was afflicted with dropsy, from which complaint he died. On the day of his death, and thelprevious day, the deceased appeared in better health and spirits than he had been of late. He got up on Thurs iay. He was conversing a few minutes before his death, which came very suddenly, and he passed away in a few moments, peacefully as if asleep, aud without uttering a murmur. Although the family of the deceased had reason to believe that he would not be with them long, no) one thought his end was so near, and whel1. it came they were deeply affected. THE FUNERAL. I The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, and it was very numerously attended, being the largest we have seen in Mold for some time past. Shutters were placed on all the shops in the town, and blinds were drawn in the private houses. From New-street, where the deceased resided, to the cemetery at the bottom of Wrexham-street, the parapets were lined with spectators. The chief mourners were the four sons of the deceased, Messrs Thomas Smith, Charles, George E., and Albert Adams. In the procession were the fol- lowing The Rev Rowland Ellis (vicar), Dr fid- ward Williams (one of the deceased's medical at. tendants), Mr Peter Browne (chief constable of FliLtshire), Mr G. W. Aplin, Mr J. D. Bolton (deputy chief constable, and successor of the deceased). Superintendent Hughes (Holywell), and Superintendents Wilde »nd Sheen (of the Den- bighshire Constabulary), Mr J. Walmsley (governor of Ruthin gaol), twenty. five members of the Flint- shire Police Force, and a large number of the friends aud acquaintances of the deceased from Mold and elsewhere. The mortal remains of the deceased were carried to their last resting place by Flintshire policemen, tban whom none esteemed him more. The coffin was covered with a Bumber of most beautiful wreaths, and it was lowered into its earthly bed amidst every token of sincere respect and esteem for the departed on the part of the large assemblage. The burial service of the Church of England wes solemnly and impressively read by the Rev Rowland Ellis (vicar). During his illness, the deceased had been attended by Dr Waters (Uhester), Dr E. Williams, and Dr D. Ed. wards (Mold).
