The Principality

TREDEGAR. BLAENAU GWENT.- The authorities here are making prepara- tions to preserve this town from the attacks of cholera. A sanitary committee has been appointed and all nuisances are ordered to be removed. This week lime has been universally in request.

NEWPORT. CHOLERA.—The cholera still lingers in the town. Several cases have occurred during the week, six of which terminated fatally. The sanitary board meet every night, and the most active mea- sures are in operation. The medical department is under the superintendence of Dr. Stack, whose untiring energies have proved most successful. SETTLEMENT.—The Rev. 0. Owens has received a unanimous invitation from the Church assembling at Mill-street Independent chapel, in this town, and has signified his intention of accepting it, and will enter upou his labours immediately.

CARDIGAN. ON* Thursday, the 7th instant, a meeting was held in the Town- hall, on which occasion the mayor, William Phillips, Esq., presided, when a committee, consisting of the reverend vicar, and of the gen- tlemen composing the Town Council, perambulated the town, ac- companied by the police, in order to remove all nuisances and accumulations of filth, and impressing upon the inhabitants the great necessity of cleanliness as a guard against cholera contagion. ILLICIT MALT.—On Friday, the 8th inst., at the Black Lion hotel, before R. D. Jenkins and Thos. Geo. Nugent, Esquires., borough magistrates, in the presence of William Evans, Esq., col- lector of inland revenue duties, Sophia James was fined in the mitigated penalty of 1:7, for making illicit malt. It appeared the land revenue officers had received information for some time past of the defendant being an extensive manufacturer of malt, and it was through the vigilance of Messrs. Stephens and Davies, land revenue officers, that six bushels of malt were found in a forward state of preparation on her premises. The case, on the part of the Crown, was conducted by Mr. T. R. Heale, supervisor of the Car- digan district. THE LIFE-BOAT for this port, we are glad to announce, arrived here on Sunday morning last, and the committee of gentlemen who took an active part in procuring the same, consisting of the Comp- troller of Customs, Wm. Thomas, Esq., agent for Lloyd's; David Davies, Esq., agent for the Priory estate; R. D. Jenkins, Esq., Tho". Davies, Esq., honorary secretary, and the principal mer- chants and others, attended by Capt. Geo. Bowea, who is appointed to command her, for his valuable services in directing the saving of the lives of the Agnes Lee, that was wrecked in January 'last, took a trip in the boat down the river to the bar, to fix upon a place for the erection of the boat-house, on the Pembrokeshire side, when a spot under Penrhyn Castle was fixed upon. The boat was built by the celebrated builders, Messrs. White, ofcoxves, Isle of Wight. A FAIR was held at Kilgerran, otherwise Griffith's fair, having originated with a person of that name, who, being an extensive ùea,er in Welsh cattle and farmer at Forrest, near Kilgerran, which farm he took upon a lease about seven years ago in quite a wilderness state, he has drained it and carries it on on the most improved English system of farming, having a liberal landlord who feels a pleasure in encouraging a striving tenant. By this means this farm flourishes when most others decay under the old system. At the fair the cattle of a superior quality realised thirty shillings to two pounds a head more than the last Newcastle fair, 4iiid the sniill good ones found a ready sale for them. The horses that were in the fair sold at a better price than was expected upon the whole. Although this is a new fair, it was better attended than since its first establishment, and it will become a fair of im- portance. WE are glad to find that our respected member, Pryse Pryse, Esq recorded his vote in favour of Mr. Cobden's motion of arbi- tration instead of war, and likewise in favour of the Jews Bill, which gave universal satisfaction amongst his liberal supporters. IT is reported that Messrs. Cobden, Bright, and Williams intend to make a tour through the principality, and visit the various and address them on the necessity of financial reform, and impress upon the tenant farmer that he is not so much under the obligation to the landlord as the landlord is to the tenant. We have no doubt if such a proceeding takes place it will do more to enlighten the people than what has taken place during all the contested elections in the principality.

ABERGAVENNY. WE have just heard with extreme regret, that Sir B. Hall, Bart., the member for Marylebone, still remains in a most dangerous state of health, and what is more lamentable, he has almost lost the use of his eyes. t understand that the Rev. T. Thomas, tutor of the Baptist College, Pontypool, has kindly promised to deliver a lecture on behalf of the Abergavenny Reading Association. The subject which the rev. gentleman has selected for his lecture, is one of deep interest, namely, the Origin of Language." WlfTi/li neighbouring towns 1).ave been Visited by that awful and ^palling scourge, cholera, we have many reasons to be thankful tha" -lie noisome pestilence" with its fearful consequences has not reached us. We arc pleased to perceive that the sanitary board in thi: place arc beginning to bestir themselves and we commend the hoard for the excellent and judicious appointment of Mr. G. Green, to the office of inspector of nuisances; no man is better quali- hed, and we feel assured that he will discharge his important duties ■efficiently.

HAVERFORDWEST. ON Wednesday and Thursday, the 13th and 14th instant, the annual services in connexion with the Pembrokeshire Associa- tion of Baptist Churches were held at Beulah Chapel, Littlenew- castle. The principal part of Wednesday was taken up in the conference of the several assembled, when reports were presented of the present position of the Churches in the associa- tion. On Thursday public services were held in the morning, afternoon, and evening, when several most excellent sermons were preached, both in Welsh and English, to very numerous audi- ences.

PEMBROKE DOCK. Ax interesting examination of the British School in this town took place on Monday, the 11th inst., by Joseph Fletcher, Esq., her Majesty's inspector of schools. At the conclusion of the first morning lesson, Mr. Fletcher, quite unexpectedly, entered the school-room, previous to which lie had taken a survey of the pre- mises, with which lie seemed greatly pleased. He then visited each of the classes, and paid very great attention to the questioning of the monitors. The children were then examined by him at great length. In the afternoon, after he had examined the children, the candidates for pupil teachers were requested to remain, the other children. to adjourn. There were then four boys and two girls se- lected for pupil teachers, whose examination papers were forwarded to the lord president for inspection. The committee of this school ere highly pleased with the conduct of Mr. Fletcher; his visit, no doubt, will be of great use to the school in exciting a spirit of emulation among the children, as well as give, a stimulus to the teachers, who have, during the last eleven months, continually had the monitors in training two hours before school in the morning, vllict often two hours after school in the evening. Nothing is more absurd than to attempt to train the monitors during school hours. The master's eye and car should be continually on the whole school, going from class to class, endeavouring to infuse life and vigour into each monitor. The number of children present was 175 boys and 130 girls.

CHOLERA.—In reply to a letter which appeared in our yester- •dav's impression, we arc requested to state that the remedies t"eí1mmended by the General Board of Health in the case of premonitory diarrhoea arc he fÓllowing-nallldy, fur an adult 20 grains of opiate confection, mixed with two table spoonslui of p. ppermint water, or with a little weak brandy and water, and repeated every three or four hours, or oftenor if the attack is severe, until the looseness of the bowels is stopped, or all ounce of the compound chalk mixture, with 10 or 15 grains of the a ul aromatic confection, and from five to ten ;irops of laudanum, repeated in the same manner. From halt a drachm to a di'achm of tincture of catechu may be added to this last if the attack is severe. It is recommended to repeat these remedies night and rooming for some days alter the 10 beiiess of the bowels has been stopped. But in all cases, it is desirable, whenever practi- cable, that even in this earliest stage of the disorder, recourse should be had to medical advice on the sl)ot.Tiiiies of Monday. REDUCING TUP. RENTS AND IMPROVING THE LAND.—The Earl of Pembroke has, in the m .st handsome manner, returned ten jpereent. to his numerous tenants in Wiltshire, on the settlement (Jf thelrtellts to .Michaelmas, 1848, where lhecolHlItion of the F-i ritis, the rale of wages paid to the labourers, and the rents, justify tiie allowance; and lie has iut-mated Ins intention ot making al,tif.viytetits of la per cent, in IS-li); but he has stipulated that the "etarns shall be expended 111 various improvements o the farms. His lordship has also expressed his wiilillguesst0 fopt a "teRaHt-t-ight" suited to the estates and the custom of fie country, and to grant leases in such instances where the <papi;Hl and skill of the tenant require them. His lordship, more- over, has requested his agent to consider the propriety of basing tbe future rents of the estates upon the average annual value of the prodec-e of the respective farms, MI thai, whether high or low j.'rices prevail, the cents would be adjusted to tLe eircu;,is:aicft :0. f Houotuubie ;ll ey M.P., has li)cral arra ge- stwa-A,

In Scotch pig iron, some speculative purchases seem, for the present, to support the market, the price during the week having varied not more than 6d, per ton; we quote the price to-day 43s. 6d. for mixed Nos., and 44s. 6d. all No. I-cash, free on board at Glasgow.—Tin plates are easier, and the market in favour of the buyer.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. MONDAY.—During last week the arrivals of all grain, as well as flour, of English produce for this market were again limited. Those from Ireland were confined to a few quarters of malt, from Scotland to about 3,000 quarters of oats. The demand for most kinds of wheat of home produce was firmer than for some weeks past. In some few instances, selected qualities of both red and white produced a trifle more money. At the close of business, nearly the whole of the samples had found buyers. The qualities of the English wheats here this morning was good. With foreign wheat, we were rather scantily supplied. All other Kinds were in moderate request, at unaltered currencies. Floating cargoes were^jptd at Is. advance. No English barley offering on the spot, but tne supply of foreign was good. In grinding sorts a good many sales took place, and the value of distilling qualities was well supported. Malting kinds were quite neglected. The supply of oats was seasonably extensive. There was an improved demand for beans. Peas ruled steady, but we have no improvement to notice in value. Indian corn and meal dull in sale. The flour trade was in a very inactive state, at last week's prices. WHEAT— S. s.

The general quality of the samples was good. The imports of foreign wheat this week have been confined to 1,800 quarters, chiefly from Holland. Selected samples were mostly held at a trifle more money; and the value of all other kinds were well supported. With English barley we were very scantily supplied, and the quantity of foreign on show was comparatively small. On the whole, the barley trade was steady, and last week's currencies were paid in every instance. The quantity of malt on offer was limited; nevertheless, the sale for that description of produce was in a sluggish state, at previous quotations. The best oats were quite as dear; but all other kinds ruled heavy. Flour moved off freely at full prices. In other articles only a limited business was doing.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. TUESDAY.—Our Corn Exchange this morning was well attended, and wheat and flour met a steady sale, at an improvement on last Tuesday's prices of Id. to 2d. per bushel on all qualities of the former, and 9d. to Is. per barrel on American flour. Sack flour moved more freely, but was not dearer. Having a good show of oats and a limited demand, the price gave way Id. to ld per bushel. Oatmeal 6d. per load cheaper. Egyptian beans brought full prices, with a fair sale. Barley and peas supported late rates.

SMITIIFIE LD. MONDAY.—Although we have to notice a decided increase in the arrivals of foreign stock for our market ince this day week, they have been but moderate, the time of year considered. The attendance of buyers was tolerably good. A few prime Scots sold at 3s. 10d., but the general top figure for beef did not exceed 3s. 8d. per 81bs. We were very largely supplied with sheep. The primest old downs and the best half-breeds were in moderate request, at stationary prices. Lambs, the supply of which was extensive, were a slow inquiry. In value, however, we have no change to notice. There was a large number of calves on offer. All kinds of veal ruled heavy, at, in some instances, drooping prices. The pork trade was in a very inactive state, at previous quotations. Price per stone of 8 lbs. (to sink thc offal). s. d. s. d.

HOPS. From nearly all quarters our accounts respecting the appearance of the bine are very unfavourable. The amount of business doing is small, notwithstanding that the duty is called from £ 90,000 to ;cioo,ooo. Sussex Pockets 50s. to 70s. Weald of Kent ditto 55s. to 84s. Mid. and East Kent ditto 70s. to 1¡j0.

TALLOW. The continued heavy stock for the time of the year has a depress- ing influence upon our market, in which very little business has been transacted to-day, and prices have declined 3d. per cwt. P.Y.C.on the spot, is selling at 38s. 6d.; and for forward delivery, so little is doing that prices arc nominal. Town tallow, 37s. to 37s. 3d. per cwt, net cash rough fat, 2s. ld. per 8lbs.

WOOL. The total arrival of wool into London last week was confined to 164 bales from Hamburgh. Tteally fine qualities command a steady sale, at full prices. In the middling and inferior kinds comparatively little business is doing. The stocks of colonial wool in warehouse are about 4.5,000 bales. New English wools are quoted as follows:- Long South Down ewcs and wecUU-rs, to 10(1.; ditto, tegs, 10d. to lid.; long Leicester ewes and weriders, with a portion of hoggs, 9d. to 9.id.; all hoggs, 10d. to lid. half-bred hoggs, lid. to Ilia. ditto ewes and wedders, chiefly Norfolk, 9d. to lOd. per lb.

PROVISIONS. MOXD.VY.—Since our last communication the appearances and tone of our markct have slightly improved. During htst week the sales of Irish butter were to a fair extent on board and landed, and prices advanced fully 2, per cwt. Of foreign the supplies were rather limited. Weather cool, the demand active, and prices sud- denly and rapidly rose to 80s. to 82s. per cwt. for best quality, but are considered as merely temporary. BACON.For Irish and American singed sides the demand was good, and prices 2s. per cwt. higher. In scalded middles there is no alteration. Hams have sold well, and at full prices. Lard as last reported. ENGLISH BUTTER.—During the past week we had rather an improved demand for butter at better prices, but this morning the market opens dull. Dorset, nne weekly, 80s. to 84s. per cwt. do. middling, 06s. to 70s.; Devon do., 68s. to 72s.; fresh Buckingham- ¡ shire, 9s. to 10:i. 6d. per dozen do. West Country, 7s. to 9s.

COLONIAL. TUESDAY.—The sugar market has opened with firmness, and last week's prices have been fully supported occasionally a shade higher prices than last week were paid. 770 hhds. of West India sold, the Barbadoes in public sale, at 6d. advance on last Tuesday's prices, 38s. to 42s.; 1,500 bags Mauritius and 1,600 bags Bengal sold stea- dily in public sale. Refined market dull. Grocery lumps, 51s. to 53s. The Board of Trade tables show a decrease in the consump- tion of sugar for the four months ending oth May, as compared with 1848, of 3,800 tons; but the fact is, that there has been an increase this year, as a large quantity has been consumed on which duty was, paid last July, which in the returns were made delivered (as cus- tomary) in that month, but remained in the warehouses, and were sold this year. COIIFEE.-The large public sales of good ordinary native Ceylon, say 5,200 bags, went off with spirit at a shade advance, and all sold at 33s. 6d. to 34s., a few lots 33s. and 34s. 6d. The article generally wears an upward appearance. RICE.-There has been an active demand the last two days, and nearly 10,000 bags sold at 3d. to 6d. advance. The extreme low prices have at length attracted the attention of speculators, and given confidence to the trade. TEA.—The public sales commenced to-day 11,000 packages passed auction, 3,500 only sold, half of which was damaged, and did not give quotations, the importers showed firmness, and prices ge- nerally have been maintained.
