It is conjectured that they were con- cealed during the wars between the Jtoyal Army and Cromwell by a soldier who was probably killed before he had communicated the place of the deposit.

AGRICULTURAL MEETING AT A NUMEROUS AND HIGHLY RESPECT- ABLE MEETING, held pursuant to Advertisement at the TOWN HALL, in the Town of COWBRIDGE, in this County, on Tuesday the 14tli day of Jan. 1834. COL. MORGAN, of Landough Castle in the Chair. It was Resolved, First. That it is the opinion of this Meeting that it is highly expedient that a Petition be forwarded to Parlia- ment expressive of the distressful state of the Occupiers of Land in this County, who are fast approaching a state of ruin, which can only be arrested by the immediate in- terference of the Legislature. That a committee of five Gentlemen be appointed to prepare a Petition expressive of the sense of this Meeting, aud to forward the same for presentation to one of our County Members, and to request them to support the same. That the said Committee be also authorised to communicate the views of this Meeting to any other Association formed for similar objects and to unite with them, and adopt any measures which may be deemed best for the interests of Agriculture generally; and to obtain that legislative relief of which it stands so much in need, and that this Meeting do pledge itself to render its best support to the said Committee. Second. That it is the opinion of this Meeting that Corn cannot be produced in this country subject to the present public and parochial burthens, to afford living profit under the following prices :— Wheat 64s. per quarter, Barley 32s. ditto. Oats 23S. ditto. That the price of Wheat, for 1832, averaged 58s. 8d. for 1833, 52s. 9d. and at the present time only 49s. 2d.; thus shewing a progressive decline below the actual cost of pro- duction. The effect of which is, a daily transfer of a portion of the tenantry of the kingdom, from the class of farmers to that of paupers, and the ruin of the remainder appears inevitable. Third. That in consequence of the depression of agri- cultural produce, farmers are unable to give that employ- ment to the labourer they otherwise would do: thereby obliging the latter to have recourse to the Poors' Rate for support. That the British farmer only requires his indus- try and skill to be put in fair competition with that of those who fill HIS market. Fourth. That it is the unanimous opinion of this Meet- ing, that the present system of Corn Laws is the best which can be devised, for the benefit of the Farmer and the country at large, though from the undue advantage hitherto given to the Irish Agriculturist in exempting him from the support of his own poor, thereby enabling him to obtain labour at two thirds less "than the English corn grower and, consequently to supply the English Market with profit at one third less than the Farmers of this country can afford. That enjoying such advantages the importation of Agricultural produce from Ireland has increased in a most alarming manner, at the Port of Liverpool alone it amounted during the last year to upwards of four millions sterling in value. That unless the public and parochial burthens which affect the growers of corn in the two countries are placed upon a more equal footing it is an act of great injustice to the Farmers of this country to permit the importation of Irish produce without restrictions similar to those imposed by 31 G. 3, which charged Irish Wheat with 24s. per puarter duty, when the price here averaged 48s. per quarter, with duties on other grain in the same proportion. Fifth. That it is further the opinion of this Meeting, that the removal of the Malt Tax would give a direct en- couragement to the growth of barley, and afford the pro- ductive classes of the community a cheap and wholesome beverage at home, which they are now forced to seek in those hotbeds of vice, the beer and gin shops, to the destruction of their moral habits, and ruin of their tamilies. If thi; Tax cannot be spared without a substitute, that this Meeting believes the most equitable would be a graduated tax on property. Sixth. That this Meeting is of opinion that a fair com- mutation of tithes would afford a reliet to the farmer, by giving the industrious the full benefit of his skill and capital, and would remove a fruitful source of diflereuce between the minister of religion and his flock. Seventh. That the above Resolutions be inserted in the Merthyr Guardian, the Cumbrian, and in Bells Messenger Newspapers. RICHARD MORGAN, Chairman. The Chairman having left the Cnair, on the motion of Henrv Lewis, Esq.. seconded by Col. Entwistle, it was unanimously resolved that the thanks of th:s Meeting be given to him for his impartial conduct in the Chair, and tor his great attention to the business of the day. r CARMARTHENSHIRE.

The general advantage of railways is no longer to be considered a speculative theory. They have invariably con- ferred an additional value upon the property contiguous to them and this fact alone establishes their claim to be considered as national undertakings, contributing to the permanent wealth of the country. The Great Western Railway is recommended also by peculiar local advantages. The actual amount of travelling on the line of the projected railway is even greater than IS commonly supposed: it exceeds, in fact, that on any other road to an eq, Ia] distance from London it forms the communication of the metro- polis and its vicinity westward, with Windsor, Maidenhead, Reading, Oxford, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bath. and Bristol. Daily communication to a very large extent, takes place by coaches from the tatter places to the West and South-West of England, including the clothing districts of Wilts,Somerset and Gloucester, Wells, Brldgwater Taunton Exeter,-Plymouth, Devonport, Falmouth, &-c- and by steam-boats, with the ports of the Bristol Channel, South Wales and Ireland. On considering these various and extensive sources of revenue to the railway, the amount subiequently stated, will excite no surprise. The additional facility of intercourse afforded by the establishment of a railway, will infallibly multiply the present large number of travellers. That mode of communication will also afford an improved conveyance of it will encourage mnnufactures in the vicinity of the coal fields which surround Bristol, and in both these ways promote the commerce of that port; it will diffuse the ad vantages of the vicinity of towns over the whole tract of country inter- sected by it; it will improve the supply of provisions to the Metropolis, as well as to those towns, and extend the market for agricultural produce it will also give considerable employment to the labouring class, both duriug its con- struction and by its subsequent effects and will enhance the value of property in its neighbourhood. ° The country has been carefully examined and a survey executed, comprising sections, > and the course of the line, which is llr miles in length, is described in a Lithographic Sketch, which will be presented at the meeting It in passes through a favourable country, consisting chiefly of gravel, chalk and freestone, and will be more nearly°level than any other extensive railway yet projected. This circumstance will facilitate the speed of the locomotive engines will diminish the power required, and consequently the expense. The line of approach to London from Maidenhead will be made to the north of the River Thames, terminating at Vauxhall Bridge. The construction of a road so nearly level, in the hilly country about Bath and Bi-istiol 'will unavoidably be a costly work. The liberal ailowances made for this and for the other requisite expenses are the causes of the large amount of the estimate of cost. The estimate has been carefully examined by several gentlemen, practically acquainted with the details of similar works, aud is pronounced by them to be considerably beyond the sum necessary for the completion of the undertaking. The estimated cost of the undertaking, for thecompletion of A carefully conducted enquiry into the sources of revenue which four, or, at the utmost, five years will be required, gives the following results:—. is as follows The present annual number of tra- £ .• s« £ »s Parliamentary and other preliminary expenses.. £ 50,000 vellers by coaches and posting, Purchase of land,including compensations. 3,10-000 ascertained from official sources Entrance to London,Bristol, and Bath with depots 223,000 and actual observation (exclu- Excavations and embankments, including tunnels ding all travelling with private and their masonry 835,300 horses) paving 2d per head per Bridges & masonry, exclusiveof that of the tunnels 471 800 mile, would amount to 302,118 9 Rails, &c. laying ditto, making road, &c 520,700 The quantity of goods at present Minor depots and stopping places. 13,000 conveved along the line by Lighting tunnels. 15,009 coaches, vans, waggons, &c. Locomotive power, including water stations. 78.500 (exclusive of grain, hay, straw-, lime, manure, &c.) at about £ 2,550,300 one-half the present charge, Add 10 per cent to cover contingencies, superin- the amount 107,765 15 tendence, &c. 255,030 The actual quantity of cattle pas* sing along the line,at about half the present expense,would yield 35,750 0 445,631 3 The number of passengers between Liver- pool and Manchester, the intercourse be- tween which was formerly so frequent, rapid, and cheap, as to leave apparently but little room for increase, has neverthe- less nearly tripled :-that on the Stockton and Darlington railway has increased forty- fold-Supposing tbe number on the Great Western Road only doubled,this would add 302,113 8 Total £ 2,805,330 Total £ 747,752 11 The sums in the table of estimated revenue are not mere calculations founded on the assumption of probabilities but have been deduced from a careful enquiry into facts. Thus the number of coaci. passengers has been found by stamp office returns of the coaches. The number of persons posting lias been estimated by counting the number of carriages drawn by post horses, at different points ot the line: the goods have been determined by ascertaining the number of waggons and other public conveyances: and the amount of cattle has been obtained from the most respectable salesmen. In that estimate a very low prospective increase of travelling, is assumed and no credit whatever is taken for increase in the quantity of goods of the descriptions at present conveyed, or for the new traffic, which so cheap, certain and rapid a mode of conveyance would unquestionably introduce. It is, therefore, much below what might safely be depended on. From the gross revenue must be deducted the annual expenses of maintenance and of the locomotive power. These expenses on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway—from causes chietlv referable to the novelty of the undertaking, and therefore, to inexperience in its execution and arrangements—have been hitherto unexpectedly heavy; amounting, exclusive of interest, to nearly eleven-twentieths of the gross receipts. But even supposing thelD to become equally heavy on the Great Western Railway, and the revenue also to remain stationary at the above estimate-buth highly improbable suppositions—the receipts would still afford a dividend of 12 per cent, on the capital. The estimate of revenue includes no portion of the canal or coasting trades, nor any of the following items although there is no doubt that, when the railway shall have been brought into operation, they will form a very important part of its business and revenue:- An increase in the quantity of cattle, fresh provisions and agricultural produce, especially of the more perishable kinds, conveyed from Ireland, hvm Wales, from the West of Kngland, and from the vicinity of the line :—The coal of Gloucestershire, Somersetshire, and Monmouthshire lime and building materials:— Fresh foreign fruit, especially orangesaud lemons; early cargoes of Mediterranean fruit, and such other articles of foreign produce as it may answer to send by the railway. Such goods, including the manufactures of the West of England except at great disadvantage. partly from delay, and partly from risk of damage:- The products of such manufactories as may be established in the vicinity of Bristol, in consequence of the combined advantages afforded by the neighbourhood of coal and of the railway. It is the deliberate and decided conviction of the Directors that the proposed railway will he highly beneficial to the commerce of the country, and to the agriculture, trade and manufactures of the vicinity of the line; of the West and South West of England, as well as of South Wuies and Ireland and to the value of property throughout the tract of country within its influence And that it will atrord a safe and profitable investment to those who may embark their property in its construction. dfov 4It, rjpHIRTEEN COUPLE of very handsome well- JL bred BEAGLES, which has been constantly Hunted together for the last two Seasons they are all Young and well-sized.

The Lords of the Treasury have issued an order to the Distributor of Stamps, requiring that, after the expiration of two years from the date of pub- lication, the tiles of all newspapers deposited with them shall be transmitted to the British Museum and their Lordships, at the same time, direct that particular attention shall be paid to keeping the series complete. The Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Com- mon Pleas has appointed Mr. Moore, solicitor, of Dursley, one of the Perpetual Commissioners under the Act lately passed for the abolition of Fines and Recoveries, and for the substitution of more simple modes of assurance."—Gloucester Chronicle. ONE OF THE REFORMED.—The Members for Bath have for many years given an anuual subscrip- tion of 51. to the Bath and West of England Agri- cultural Society. At the annual meeting of the So- ciety it as stated that, in answer to an application to Mr. Roebuck, the new Member of Parliament, from the Secretary,stating the practice, and requesting that he would continue to aliord his valuable aid to the funds, the hon. and learned gentleman replied by letter, unequivocally declaring his inability to con- tribute pecuniary assistance to that or any other local institution. At the Glasgow Assizes, last week, a man was found guilty of throwing vitriol upon another, and sentenced to be hung.
