ORIGINAL CHARADES. No. X, o A very little maid there was, and a very little man, Their height. by a very little figure. may b, reckoned; Their names, as their natures, both were but a span, And in those little names you have my FIRST anrI SECOND. These little people married, and becoming bone and bone: A very little child was theirs, not bigger than a fairy To name her was a puzzle—at length they joined their own, And well my WHOLE became a thing so very light and airy.

Solution of last week's Charade—SUN-DAY.

PUBLIC CHRISTENING AND FESTIVITIES AT ADARE. The Hon. Wyndham Thomas Wyndham Quin, son and heir of the Viscount Adare, having been bap- tized privately a few days after his birth, was pub- licly received into the Church of Christ, in these countries, on Sunday last, by the Rev.James Young, after the econd lessan at morning service, in the ancient aud venerable Parish Church the EarllJf Dunraven, and Wyndham, Groold, Esq., standing: as Godfathers, and Lady Anna Maria Mousell, as God. mother. In order not to trespass on the sacred rest of the Sabbath, the festivi; ies were deferred to the two following days. On Monday a large party, con- sisting of upwards of one hundred of the neighbour- ing gentry, assembled at the Manor-house, and thence proceeded to the" farm-yard," to witness the enjoyment of the children attendant at Lady Dun- raven's school—here, boys and girls, to the number of four hundred, sat down to a plentiful and substan- tial dinner, and which, in consequence of the wetness of the day, was spread forth in an extensive ban) aDd granary. A more gladsome scene there could not be than was presented, and in strong contrast with the gloomy weather outside it was, truly, a treat to behold the glisieniug faces of the children and their joyous mirth, whilst in due succession, and with good appetite, they did ample justice to the excellent "roast beef and plum-pudding," provided in rich abundance, and afterwards drank the healths of the infant hero of the day, of Lord aud Lady Dunraven, Lord and Lady Adare, and of other members of the family. The noble hosts were most unremitting in their care aDd attention that every little one should be well provided. Upon the return of the company, they found a sumptuous hanquet laid out in the dining-room, furnished with great variety of wines, and everything rare and good: — iu particular, a splendid christening cake, and most capacious bowl of punch, containing some twelve or iffteen gallons, "all in the old style." Next commenced the fire- work), which, notwithstanding the continued down- ponring of the rain, were most brilliant: Mr. Turner, of the Royal Artillery, kindly superintended the let- ting them off, assisted by the Lords Dunraven and Adare. These were exhibited in the open space in the demesne, opposite the church, and parted from the high road by a sunken wall, thus to el,able the villagers" to see the sport," their shoulS and huzzas testifying at once their gratification and utter forget- ful ness of the warring of the elements." Some carmen, proceeding with corn to Limerick, greatly alarmed at meeting in a tempestuous and most dark- some Heningso unexpected a concourse, and hearing theexplosions, and seeing the blaze of the fire works, cried out with terror, and were, with much difficulty persuaded to resign the idea they had formed, "sure it most be an invasion of the Frinch." The hospitable mansion aixain retrained, the youths and lasses were quickly summoned by the stirring notes of the Irish jig, and the well-known music of the pipes," to join in the merry dance; the invitation was Iadly accepted, and dancing kept up with great spirit for some hours, after which the guests separated, highly delighted with their afternoon's amusement, and earnest in expressing their good wishes for the bap- pioess of their noble entertainers. Tuesday, proving more favourable, there were foot races of various kinds, climbilllr a pole for hats, vests, and other prizes; and in the evening a bull and supper given to the servants and tenantry, for whose accommoda- tion were thrown open a suite of dancing rooms, a tea room, and supper room, tastefully adorned with flowers and evergreen*, interspersed with mottoes and devices'. After supper the toasts were received with cheers that made the wal's ring again, and an enthusiasm that showed vividly what that feeling is, which eiists between'a good resident landlord and a happy tenontrYo-Limerick Stalldard, of Oct. 2lst. 118'

PERILOUS BALLOON DESCENT.—Mr. Gypson, the aeronaut, made his 45thasuit from Spalding in Lin- colnshire, on Thursday, the 14tli. In consequence of being so near the ocean it was necessary for Mr. Gypson to part company with rhe clouds as quickly as possible, 10 accomplish which thelare valve was thrown open to its utmost extent, aud the balloon was seen repassing the clouds over Holbeach iiiarshes, 8..pot very favourable for effecting a safe descent, and where Mr. Gypson first reached the earth, with a very slight concussion but an individual who was within 8 few feet of fhe balloon, 00 seeing the unex- pected visitor, started off. panic struck, and no en- treaties of the aeronaut conld induce him to return or render any assistance. 111 one minute a mile existed between the voyager and the spot he first landed upon during which short time, according to the statement of several gentlpmen who followed Ihe balloon on horseback, Mi*. Gypson must have had five or six violent concessions, lor the ground breeze blew with such velocity that the balloon, car aud aeronaut, altogether above four hundred weight, hav- ing now a very small quantity of g-ti to give it any buoyancy, was borne ouwurds to the ocean defying some of the best horsemen in this part of the country to approach ii, some of whose cattle were dead beat in their meritorious attempts to render Mr. Gypson assistance, Baboon, car, and occupant, bounded over the marshes till it approached an inlet fro'n the sea, into which it plunged, and Mr. Gypson was dragged thiougli, immersed in water, for 30 or 40 yard*, when, fortunately, at the further extremity, a atoping green mound presented itself, on which reo mained the remnant of a willow, and this proved the anchor of the aeronaut, who clung to it till some persons came to his assistance, and relieved him from his perilous situation. The balloon sustained but comparatively small injury, but Mr. Gypson, in ad- dition to the injury on thewiist, likewise met with a serious hurt on the risjhl leg. lie was, however con. veyed by his friends biek to Spalding the same night, and is expected to make au ascent from a neighbour- ug town in a week or ten days, The quantity of crppcr ore imported into Swansea from Cuba and South America within the last fort. night is 5000 tons.

AUGMENTATION OF POOR BENEFICES. The following order in Council appears in the Gazette of last night — "At the Court at Windsor, the 6,h day of Octo- ber, 1841, present, the Queen's most excdlcllt Majesty in Counci1, Whereas! the Ecclesiastic.il Commissioners for England, have, in pursuance of an Act, passed in the session of Parliament, hrilden in the third and fourth years of her Majesty's reign, intituled All Act to carry into effect, with ceitain modifications, the fourth report of the Commissioners of Ecclesiasti- cal Duties and Revenues,' duly prepared and laid before her Majes'y in Council a scheme, bearing date the fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred forty-one, iu words and figures follow- ing, that is to say — the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for land, in pursuance of an Act, passed in the session of Parliament, held in the third and fourth years of your Majesty's reign, intituled 'An Act to carry into eff;ct, with certain modifications, the fourth report of the Commissioners of Ecclesiastical Duties and i{evcuue, have prepared, and now humbly lay before your Majesty in Council, the following scheme, for innkiug additional provision for the cure of souls in certain parishes, where such assistance is most required. Whereas, by reason of the suspension of certain canonries and prebends in several cathedral and collegiate churches under the operation of the s'1.id Act, divers sums of money have already been paid 10 aud have been by ut canted ever to a con mon fund, as by the same act is directed; and divers other moneys will be yearly and every year, in like manner, payable to us, and wt'l by us be c.;rr;ed over to the same fund. Ann whereas it appears to us, afler ha..in care- fully considered how the limited amount of moneys, which are now in course of annually accruing to the said common fliiid, niay be most usefully distributed, according to the provisions of the --lid act, that it ill be most conducive to the efficiency of the Established Church, to grant out of the said fund (in the first be requisite to secure, a,4 nearly as may be an average annua! net income of olle hundred and fifty pounds, to the incumbent of every benefice or church with cure of souls; being either a p-\i ish church or (-hap",1 with a district lega'ly assigned thereto; and having a population amounting to two thousand and being in the patron sge either of your Majesty, or of some archbishop or bishop, dean and chapter, dean, archdeacon, prebendary, or other dignitary or officer in some cathedral or collegiate church, or of some rector or vicar: reserving to our-elvps, nevertheless, the right of abstaining frum recommending such augmentation in any case in which, from special circumstances, we shall be of opinion that it is not a? present expedient. And whereas, we have satisfied ourselves, after due inquiry, that the benefices and churches des- cribed in the sch duie hereunto annexed, fall within the class above defined, and are fit and proper to be forthwith augmented. "We, therefore, humbly recommend and propose that, in order to raise to the.sum of one hundred ana fifty pounds (as nearly as may be), the average annual uet illcome of the several benefices and churches enumerated and described in the said schedule, there shall be paid by UIO, in each and every year, out of the common fund aforesaid, to the incumbent, for the time being, of each of such benefices and churches, the fixed annual sum which we have set opposite the name thereof in the last column of the said schedule, by equal half-yearly payments, on the first day of May and the first day of November in each year, and that the first ofsnch payments bliall be made on the fir-t day of Novem- ber next and that whenever a vacancy in any of the said benefices or churches fõhall happen on any other day than the first day of May or the first day of November, the next half-yearly payment sha'l, in every snch case, be apportioned between the iu- cumbent making the vacancy, or his representatives, and the incumbent succeeding to the benefice or church so becoming vacant, according to the time which shall have elapsed from the last day of pay- ment to the day of the vacancy inclusive and such proportions shall be paid to the respective parties accordingly. I- And we further recommend and propose, that nothing herein contained shall prevent the further augmentation of any of such benefices or churches, if it shall be deemed fit, when there shall be sufficient means for that purpose; and that it shall appear to us to be expedient, at any future time, that instead of the annual sum then in course of payment by us to any benefice, or of any part of such sum, a sum of stock in the Three Pounds per Centum Reduced or Consolidated Bank Annuities should be appropriated thereto, or any land,' tithe or other hereditament should be conveyed thereto in fee, nothing herein contained shall prevent us from recommending and proposing such a substitution, provided that such stock or such land, tithe or other hereditament, as the case may bo, shall produce an BllllualllulII not less than the aiirual suiii for which the same shall be substituted; and provided also that no such change shall take effect, except by the appropriation of stock as atoresaid, until the then next vacancy of the benefice affected thereby, with. out the written consent of the then existing incumb- ent thereof. And we further recommend and propose, that nothing herein contained shall prevent us from re- commending and proposing the augmentation of any other benefice which, upon further inquiry, shall appear to us to come within the said class, and to be fit for augmentation nor from extending augmenta- tions to other classes, when the fund applicable thereto shall have sufficiently increased." x< M n A nnuai NAME p OF QUALITY COUNTY \a>ment BENEFICE.

He then went away he had a candle with him. My hus- band returned with the prisoner in about quarter of an hour; he asked me where the moneyjwas I had received that day 1 told liiin in my pocket on the table; he looked there, and found the pocket, but there was no money in it: no other person was up in the room but the prisoner; I was awake I saw the prisoner on the following Sunday (te next day), and told him to give my money that he had stolen on the Saturday night. He rose his fist to strike me. He went away. I again asked him for the money, and touk eight shillings and six- pence out of his pocket. Mr. John cross-examined:—! recollect going to Thomas Thomas's house on the SunJay morning; I saw the prisoner lyin^down on the floor sleeping; he got up and went into the next room and I fol- lowed him; I told him it was a very a -kwardjob; he said, "very awkward indeed." They have had 8s. out of the money, and they were only 16s. 6d. in all. They say that there were 17s. 6d. 1 said, Well, you better give the whole back." He said, I would if I had them." Thomas Thomas' threatened to send for the police. The prisoner said. Yon may send and be d—d to you." Verdict-ot Guilty. [How beautifully the verdict accords with the evidence The court seemed to have been taken quite aback at the unexpected resull.] Evan Duvid, of the parish of Llangonoyd, charged with stealing one hammer, and one piece of iron, the property of J. M. Buckland, Esq., of Maesteg and o:hers. Verdict—Not Guilty. Mr. Coke conducted the prosecution. Mr. Thomas Attwood defended thejprisoner most nbly. Daniel Evans, aged 30, labourer, charged upon the oaths of John Morgan, of Maesteg, with steal- ing two iron bars, of the value of tive shillings, of the property of James Maun Buckland, Esq. Verdict—Not Guilty. Mr. Coke conducted the prosecution- Mr. Thomas Attwood defended the prisoner. The court rose at half-past six. THURSDAY MORNING. The court sat soon a'ter ten o'clock. The first persons tried were William Thomas and Lewis DougMon, charged with stealing divers articles of wearing apparel, two watches, and various coins of the realm, the property of John Johns and others, in the parish of Lantwit, npar Neath. This case being clearly made out on the part of the prosecution, the Chairman merely said—Gen- tle of the Jury, I need not trouble you by going over the evidence, for undoubtedly the whole is obvious to YOII. In a few minutes the jury returned.averdict of guilty. [Here a paper was handed to the court by Mr. Coke, and read by the Clerk of the Peace.] Mr. Woods, the Governor of Cardiff Gaol being then examined, slated-" The prisoner Lewis Doughton was in my custody at Cardiff under sen- tence, according to the certificate that has just been read." The Chairman then addressed the prisoners:- You have been convicted upon the clearest possi- ble evidence oi a very heinous and aggravated offence; and it appears Lewis Doughton that you have on a previous occasion been found guilty of an offence of a still heavier character, and since punishment in this coontry has no effect with you, the sentence of the Court is that you Lewis Dough- ton be transported beyond the seas for the remain- der of your natural life, and that you William Thomas be transported during the lerm of seven years. Doughton went off menacing the Chairman by impertinent language and actions. John Jones, charged with stealing a piece of coal value two-pence,^the property of Geihing. of Neath. Mrs. Oettsing and another feuiale swore to the prisoner having taken the coal, and both agreed it was about II o'clock at night. The prisoner's father-in-law bein called upon by the prisoner, swore the prisoner was in bed in the same room as himself before ten o'clock on the evening in question, and being auake he heard him there ulltil the clock struck one, and that he found him in the same bed next morning when he awoke. David Davies, another very respectable looking man. gave the prisoner a very good character, and said he had known him above thirty years. The Chairman then said to the Jury,—You have two witnesses swear to the prisoner having taken a lump of coal, and two others have given the prisoner a very good character. The first wit- nesses swear to the time of the night, that it was about 11 o'clock when he took the coal, while his father-in-law on the contrary swears he in bed during more likely to be uodera mistake than the two who swear positively to the fact; he is also nearly connected with the prisoner,^and must, therefore, have wille partial ity for him. The jury aiter a short consultation found the prisoner guil (y. The Chairman to the prisoner :—John Jones, you have been convicted of stealing coal under more aggravated circumstances than common, cases, such as the pit's mouth,or from open canal barees, See. This is from an inclosed heap adjoin- i; a dwelling-house. 110.\ ever, the cOllrl has taken into consideration your good character, and therefore they sentence you to four wevks' hard laboor in S\9ansea Houe of Correction. John Rees, charged with stealing a Merinocloak, the property of Hannah Edwaids, servant at the King's Head, Swansea, who swears to her having lost her cloak. 0*en Davies, constable at Ystradganlis, swears to having taken the cloak now produced from out of the prisoner's pack, at a place about thirteen miles from Swansea, which^ was claimed by the prisoner. The prioner in his defence says that the prose- cutrix had for some time bortMiulice against him, and highly probable she had placed the cloak h his pack herself; but this cot bein< proved, aud excuses of this sort being ta'-ily formed was not admitted therefore found guilty. Abraham Hodges, a respectable looking man, being called upon said, he knew the prisoner for- merly to be a person of very good character, but that he knew very little of him for the last six or seven years. Sentence—ihree calendar months hard labour in S i ansea House of Correction, first and last week in solitary confinement. Solicitor for the prosecution Mr. Richard Alt. Ivood. Jolm Daniel, charged with stealing a silver watch, the property of Abraham Lyons, of the Strand, Swansea. This case was very clearly made out on the part of the prosecution, though skilfully defended by Mr. Benjamin Jones, who also brought highly respectable persons to prove the usual good cha- racter of the prisoner,and the respectability of liis parents. Mr. Bi'tijainin Jones then addressed the Jun"- I have the honour of addressing you on the present occasion, i he prisoner is the son of a miller who has brought lip a large rainily in honest and indus- trious hubits as perhaps anv could have been- The unfortunate person now before you is a mason w horn you find by the vccount of the policeman, was in a drunken state at the time of comn i tin the act for which he is now called to account. Leatinsi his home lis got into bad company, and this is the result but I trust yuu will ghe him lIch credit as his previolls good character entitle hint to. Chairman to the jury :—Notwithstanding the good character, fhe evidence is strong, tlldt I must leave it entirely in your hands' Found guilty. Chairman to the prisoner,—This is a very pain- ful case, that you have by your misconduct in following bad company brought yourself into dis- grace. The court believe this to be your first offence and they hope it "ill be your last. You have been convicted upon the clearest evidence. The sentence of the court is that you be kept at hard labour in Swansea House of Correction during two calendar months, the first and last week in solitary confinement. Bees Jones 1 charged ith stealing several pioces of timber, the property of Messrs. Grainger and Evan, of Neath, timber merchants. In this case it was clearly made out that the prisoner had sold several pieces of timber from his employers' boat on the canal, which timber was since retlllned by the purchaser. The prisoner in his defence said he had found the timber on the canal and not finding any ow-ner he disposed of the whole for his own"use but as he brought no one to corroborate his so finding such timber, this defence of his was not attended toe so that he was found guilty. Sentence-Four months imprisonment with hard labour in Swansea House of Correction, the second and last week to be in solitude. Rachel If illiams, aged 51, singlewoman, charged with stealing a qllantitylof coI, Ibe property of George Crane, Esq. Verdict-Guilty.

Verdict—Guilty against both prisoners. Sentence—Seven years' transportation. [The Chairman explained that the above sen- tence was merely a matter of form: —That the prisoners would be sent to Millbank Penitentiary, where they would be properly taken care of and pains taken to instil good principles into their minds. If they behaved well, they would probably be libel aled in a few months. Elizabeth Thomas, aged 27, charged with stealing one waistcoat, the property of Jeremiah Driscoll, of Swansea. Verdict— Guilty. Sentence—Three months' imprisonment with hard labour in Swansea House of Correction. Mr.Thomas Attwood conducted the prosecution Mary Jones, aged 18, charged with stealing a piece of striped cotton, the property of Mr. George Burrows, contractor, Swansea.

John Bowen, policeman, produced the piece of cotton, which was identified by Mrs. Burrows. Mrs. Burrows was cross.examined by Mr. Melvin, but nothing material clidted. Mr. Burrows examined :—On the 16th September last, my wife told me, in the presence'of the pri- soner, that she had lost a piece of cotton, and that she suspected the prisoner had stolen it; I directed the prisoner to go into the parlour she went in and sat on a chair; I turned my back on her for some minutes she afterwards turned herselt with her feet under the table; she waited there a lew minutes and then left the parlour and went into the kitchen I followed her in a few minutes after wards my wife returned to the parlour she shortly afterwaids brought a piece of cotion into the kitchen, and to'd the prisoner, I have found this piece where you were sitting; TFtVevident you had stolen it; you had pinned it round your waist, and here are the wi inkles on it now." I will take my oath there was no piece of cotton under the table when 1 left the prisoner; 110 one went in there, nor could any one have gone in there as I remained by the door. Mr. Melvin cross-examined Mr. Burrows but to very little effect. Verdict-Guilty.

On the evening of that day the pri- soner came to my shop; it was between ten and eleven o'clock: he came in and asked for a pound of sau-ages to my wife in my presence; my wife weighed them for him, and packed them up; but heloie she could finish packing them up, the pri- soner snatched lliem out of her hand and ran pay; before be snatched them he asked the price; my wife said eight-, ence he said, "they are d —d dear," and then ran alVay; I followed him and called after him, Simuel Ellery come hack with the sausnges." He made no answer but continued to run away. The sausages were my own property, and were worth eight-pence I after- wards saw those sausages in Mr. William llees's possession; I saw them when! was before the mayor on the following morning; Ilhen identified the sausages as being my property.

MONMOUTHSHIRE QUARTER. SESSIONS. These Sessions commenced in the Town Hall, at Usk, on Monday, the 16th ult., before a very large Bench of Nlagisti-at(-s Lord Granville Somerset, M.P., Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Chairman; CQUNTY TREASURER. The Chairman said the first business beforo the Court was the election of a County Treasurer in the room of Mr. T. Prothero, who had resigned that office. Able gentlemen having become candidates for that office, he supposed they had already complied with the order of tlw last essiolls with regard to the sureties, Sic., into which they were bound to enter for the ful- filment of the duties of County Treasurer. Mr, Waddiugton, tho Clerk of the Peace, stated that notice of the resolutions which the bench hail come to at the last Sessions had been duly advertised, and he would now lay before the Court two notifications which lie had received on tbo subject—one from 1\1 p'¡snt Prothero and Towgood, of Newport, solicitors, and the other from Mr. J. H. Davis, Newport, solicitor. Col. Lewis proposed that Messrs. Prothero and Towgood, of Newport, solicitors, ,bo appointed tothe office of County Treasurer. W. A. Williams, Esq, seconded the nomination, and in Ii'. doing bore testimony to the ability with whbh Mr. Prothero had for a series of twenty-seven years performed the duties of the office, and expressed his onviction that the gentlemen whose appointment to that office he had now seconded, would fill it with equal satisfaction to the county. O. Morgan. Esq., proposed Mr. Henry John Davis, as a gentleman of sound practical experience in such matters,and felt convinced he would be found in everv way qualified to undertake the duties of the office. Sergeant Taddy seconded the nomination of Mr. Davis, and passed a high eufogium on the ability dis- played by Mr. Prothero in the performance of his duty as county treasurer. A desultory conversation took placo between the magistrates, after which his lordship proceeded to take the voles, when th<re appeared for Messrs. Prothero aud Towgood 28 Mr. II. J. Davis 13 Majority 15 1 The Clerk then made out toe appointment of Messrs. Prothero and Towgood. NF.vy HOUSE OF CORBECTIOV. Resolved-That the same gentlemen be appointed a com mitlco to superintend the building of the new House of Correction at Osk, with the like powers as heretofore. MOVMOUTIl GAOL. P,c-soive(i-,rii;it the recommendation, as contained in the Report of the Visiting Magistrates of the Countv Gaol, in regard to the bill, and raising the low "nil in the debtors' ward, be carried iiito executiol), at an expence not exceeding £ t, under the supctin- tendence of the Visiting Magistrates. COUNTY UATE, Ordered—That a Rate of hI. in tho pound be levied on the easuiug quarter. C, DISMISSAL OP TIIE GOVERNOR OF MONMOUTH JAIL The Report of the Visiting Magistrates of Mon- mouth Gaol, and retiolutioiii come to at the last Quarter Sessions, having been read, a meiiiorial was handed to the Chairman most numerously and'respect- ably signed, including the names of the Vicar, Mayor, ;tii(i oilier inhabitants of the town of Monmouth, in favour of the governor of tile x-tol. A letter was also put ill by the High Sheriff on the subject, and a communication from the chaplain of tliest-iol, the latter stating that the conduct of Mc. Ford for the last quarter had greatly altered and he appears to promise well for the future. A letter from the Inspector of Prisons stated that that gentleman had officially visited the county prison during the last five years, and he always found the gitol kept in a very superior style, and in a manner highly creditable to Mr. Ford. The letter also stated that the Inspector had examined Mr. Ford's accusers, and ho thought from that ex- amination nothing could be elicited to alter his opinion that the governor had filled the office with justice to the county and credit to himself. Major Marriott was anxious to give Mr. Ford ano- ther trial. Sir Benjamin Hall moved that the report of the 3rd of August be confirmed. He should bo willing to give Mr. Ford another trial if lie could do s(r,coti,ist- leiitly but when he saw that, after the solemll warn- ing which had been given that person by Lord Granville Somerset on a previous occasion, that. sub. sequently, aggravated charges had been made and sustained against him, he thought they ought not to extend the trial. The ttev. James Coles seconded the motion of Sir B. Hall Sir Thomas Phillips and Mr. Prothero de- fended the governor O. Morgan, Esq., and W. A. Williams Esq., spoke of him in strong terms of dis- approbation. Sir T. Phillips then proposed, and Mr. Prothero se- conded, that Mr. Ford should be continued on trial till the next Quarter Sessions. The amendment and original motion having been put to the b.'nch, after some further conversation on the subject, there appeared a small majority ill favour of the niotiuti itninedidtelyifter which, the following resolutions were paused: — That the High Sheriff be informed that the Magis- trates, adhering tojtlieir decision of August last, in reference to the County Gaoler, Mr. C. Ford, propose that he shall cease to perform his functions in the County Gaol on the 1st of February, 1842; and hope for the concurrence of the Higb^Sherilf in this propo- sition. That the Clerk of theJPeace signify by advertise- ments in the public papers, that the Magistrates of this county will be ready toconsider applications from persons willing to fill the situation of County Gaoler und that all candidates do transmit their applications, together with testimonials of character and fitness, to the Clerk of tho Peace, on or before the first day of December next. That every candidate shall personally attend a meet- ing of this Court on the first day of the ensuing Epiphany Sessions. That the election of a person to act as Gaoler, sub. ject to the approbation of the High Sheriff, will take place at one o'clock or as near to that hour as may be, on the first day of the same Sessions. That the Clerk do insert in the advertisements the salary and emoluments of the office, and signify that no person upwards of forty-five years of age need apply. Several magistrates were -Itlien formed into com- mittee to receive applications and testimonials, to be laid before them at eleven (i(-Iock on the 17'h day of December, and to investigate the several applications, and make any suggestion which they may think fit re- lative to the several candidate*, to the ensuing Quar- ter Sessions. Mr. Prothero gave notice that at the next Quarter Sessions, lie. woutd move that the turnkey who 1 rought the charge against Mr. Ford be discharged. SURVEYOR'S REPORT.
