Women are formed for attachment. Their gratitude is imperishable. Their love is an unceasing fountain of delight to a man who has once attained it, and knows how to deserve it. But that very keenness of sensibility which, if well cul- tivated, would prove the source of your highest enjoyment, may grow to wormwood if you fail to attend to it or abuse it. If it is happiness to be nobly descended, it is no less so to have so much merit that nobody inquires whether you are so or not. A false friend is like a shadow in a dial-plate, which appears in fine weather, but vanishes at the approach of a cloud.

CHANGB OF TIMES.—About the middle of the Seventeenth century, persons hiring furnished lodgings in London had to Had their own linen and pewter, or pay dearly for their use. In the nineteenth century, so much have notions of comfort -e(i, e -3 -) and social sagacity improved, that many persons especially honourable numbers of the tail, can get themselves accom- modated by finding only their own brass and fustian, and without paying for anything. STRENGTH OF PAPER.-During a lecture by Mr. Cooper, before the Society of Arts, lie produced a quarto sheet of post writing paper, the ends of which he had pasted together, thus forming an endless web. Into this web he inserted two rods of wood, to one of which was attached a half-hundred weight; and taking the other in his hands, he raised the weight. With the same material, he observed, had been lifted a man who weighed loOlbs. With a bank note could also be lifted 181bs.—Magazine of Science. FATHER MATHEW. (From a Correspondent of the Standard.) Father Mathew's benevolent labours in London are now drawn to a close, and no man, we believe, has entered upon a similar labour with more perfect, integrity and unity of purpose, or with more .'perfect negation of sell, than has Father Mathew, and he merits our special applause by his careful avoidance of all politics and every question of reli- gious creed. For, although some display may have been made emblematical of the church to which he belongs, he has shown that such exhibitions were not his wish, his object being purely the charitable design of endeavouring to with- draw his fellow-creatures from a habit which, when indulged in, is the most prejudical in every point of view. The respect and regard so generally entertained towards this very excellent man induce us to give to our readers a iurther notice of him and of the family of Mathew, of Thouiastown Castle, to which he helongs; where the family have been seated since they first went to Ireland from Llan- daff in 1610, down to the last Earl of Llaudaff. This splendid castle and domain are regarded as one of the most beautiful places in Ireland, and are situate in what is termed the Golden Valley, about four miles from Cashel, in the county of Tipperary and although it has been the seat of this once celebrated family through its various descents, it lias, at last, been most singularly devised to one in no way belonging to the family of Mathew. The family of Mathew, of which Father Mathew is so worthy a member, is of great antiquity. The Welsh records carry the pedigree back to Gwaythyoed, King of Cardigan in direct descent from whom was Sir David Mathew, the great standard-bearer to Edward IV., and whose monument is in Llandaff Cathedral, as are also two splendid altar monu- ments in alabaster to two of his grandsons-namely, Sir Wil- liam and Sir Christopher Mathew, of abuut the date of 1530, as described by Browne Willis and Sir Richard Colt Hoare. From Sir Christopher was descended the brave Admiral Thomas Mathew, who was so celebrated, vet so ill- used in 1744, at which time he was member for the county of Glamorgan- Mr. Edmund Mathew, the grandson of Sir W. Mathew, and heir to the ancient estates of the family at LlandalF and Aradyr, was High Sheriff of the county of Glamorgan in 1592. Two of his sons, George and Edmund, went to Ire- land about the year 1G10. Edmund died iu Ireland, a Colonel in the army, about 1650; but his brother, Captain George Mathew, who inherited the Llandaff and Aradyr estates, married about 1G20 the widow of Thomas Butler, Lord Thurles, who was mother of James Butler, the first and reat Duke of Ormonde. By Lady Thurles, George Mathew had two sons, Toby and George Mathew, who, with their des- cendants, became possessed of the vast estates of Thomas- town, Thurles, and Annfield, in Tipperary, and others in the counties of Clare, Galway, Cork, and Limerick, Toby Mathew died in London about 1G9U, having married three times, having had children by each of his wives, the last of whom was Miss Neville, of Holt, in Leicestershire. The notice of George Mathew, great grandson of the above George, and his style of living in the reign of George I., as described in Sheridan's life of Swift, will well repay the reader. The whole of these estates, on the failure of the Thurles and Thomastown branches, were bequeathed and strictly entailed by George Mathew, of Thomastown, in 17 )9, to his kinsman, Thomas Mathew, of Annfield, and his decend- ants, and thence to his brothers and kinsmen in succession, John, George, Charles, Edmund, &c., and then to his own right heirs, who should maintain the name of Mathew. A great many alliances were formed, and a most affec- tionate intercourse maintained between the Mathew and the Ormonde families. Edmund Mathew, in 1772, appointed his well-beloved friend and kinsman, Walter Butler, of Garry- ricken (who was of right 10th Earl of Ormonde, and grand- father of the present Marquis,) the executor of his will. Francis Mathew, son of Thomas Mathew, of Annfield, was a gentleman of the highest consideration in I/eland, and be- came successively Baron, Viscount, and Earl of Llandaff. At his death, in 1S06, the estates, amounting to upwards of £ 40,000 a year, came to the last Earl, Francis James, who, by Lis extravagance and improvidence, greatly encumbered them. At his death, in 1833, intestate, and without issue, the property was entailed upon by his sister, Lady Elisha Mathew. This old lady, who by all accounts was at least as fit for a lunatic asylum as her brother George, died in 1842, and, in direct violation and opposition to the will and desire of George Mathew, as above named, from whom her grand- father Thomas, of Annfield, had derived the estates, be- queathed the whole entirely away from her name and family to a French nobleman, the Viscount de Chabot, highly con- nected by marriage in Ireland, but in no way allied in blood to the family whose estates he is put into possession of. We are informed that the devise by which this ancient name and family are entirely excluded from all interest in property which had been theirs for centuries, to the benefit of a stranger only allied to the Mathew family by the mar- riage of his mother's sister, is a circumstance which created at the time, and since, a great sensation and surprise, and that the legality of this devise, with the other matters, is now become the subject of a rigorous investigation, but with which Father Mathew does not interfere. He is himself one of the executors of this monstrous will of Lady E. Mathew but we believe he has never acted; he has left to his nolile colleague, the Duke of Leinster, to instal his own brother- in-law as the present occupant of the towns, lands, and castles of the good father's^ancestors and relatives. a QUEEN VICTORIA AXD Louis PHILIPPE.Amongst other marks of condescension, his Majesty King Louis Philippe expressed to one of her Majesty's suite how happy he felt.

REBECCA AND DISSENT. To the Editor of the Advertiser and Guardian. SIR,-I beg to reply to, or more properly answer the Epistle of a person subscribing himself William Reynolds, inserted in your respectable Journal of the 19th ultimo, by, in the first place, observing, using an old saying, that he appears to have let the cat out of the bag, that he has in his ridiculous and almost inexplicable rhapsody against the respectable Editor of the Times Journal, enabled us to col- lect just enough information to perceive that he has compro- mised his brethren in dissent, and displayed to the world the spirit that actuates them, and the very little dependence that is to be placed on their exertions in times of trouble, difficulty, or anarchy that like unto Pat in the garret who when in- formed the house was on lire coolly exclaimed, what is that to me, I am but a lodger, let it burn for what I care," even so is it with Mr. Wm. Reynolds and the Dissenting Minis- ters generally, if we r.rj to credit his statement, for whether any of their people are induced by the crafty and ill-designed to pull down a toll-bar or a toll-house, ransack a refuge for the destitute, or attack a mansion, it is all the same to them, —they are but simple ministers of the Gospel, friends t,f tile Saviour destroyed, poor souls, and what may come may come, for aught they care, so long as they shall be enabled to preach in Welsh to their llooks, and realize from their hard earnings a sufficiency wherewith not only to be enabled to enjoy them- selves, but also to have a few leisure hours to scribble trash against the Church of England. After thus premising I will now endeavour to ascertain what it is that has fanned the wrath and ire of Mr. William Reynolds actually into a blaze towards the Times Journal. It appears'that the Editor of this respectable and widely cir- culated Journal has had the temerity to say that some of the Dissenting Ministry have been in the habit of preaching from the 24th chapter of Genesis, the GOth verse, and have advised the people also to their outrageous proceedings—a very grave charge indeed, and rendered more serious by the very pitiful defence made to it by Mr. William Reynolds, for let us see what he says to it, he tells us that Mi. Editor of the Times has told us a plumper, or, using his own words, a glaring falsehood,—and for what reason would any man believe, because, says Mr. Reynolds, lie has not appended to his statement a list of the names of the Dissenting Ministers— so that because the Editor of the Times did not deem it necessary to give us a list of the Ministers so misconducting themselves, which perhaps might have occupied two or three columns of his paper, he must necessarily have told us a glaring falsehood,—verily, Mr. William Reynolds, your modesty is co-equal with your very splendid acquirements as that should a man peradventure purchase a joint of un- wholesome meat from olf a butcher's stall, it nevertheless could not be putrid, stale, and unprofitable, although grossly offensive to our nostrils, because the purchaser did not know, or did not choose to turn informer against the vender of meat 50 foul and al ominahle. After thus without assigning any cog.'lit reason for giving the lie direct to Mr. Editor of the Times, docs Mr. William Reynolds condescend to enlighten us by furnishing to us the names of those dear friends of the Saviour destroyed, who had in the hour of need preached peace and obedience to the laws to their deluded country- men, no, indeed, for on this subject Mr. Reynolds is as dumb as a rock. I will now, with his permission, approach a subject of a more pungent nature—he moreover tells us that if any Dis- senting minister had uttered a word from the pulpit calcu- lated to induce the people to violate the law, that the enemies of religion would have gladly availed themsehes of the pleasure of sending their names as well as their conduct to, using his own words, the unprincipled Times. Good again, Mr. William Reynolds, for this is as much as to say that if any of your fraternity had preached treason from the pulpit, those who should report their conduct would be the enemies of religion, and that consequently it would be perfectly religious to preach such doctrines to the people, but very irreligious in those who should either disclose, comment upon, or condemn such conduct. In what tongue do you preach, Mr. William Reynolds i I shrewdly suspect that you hold forth in the Welsh language, and if your precepts are to be likened unto the sample or example you have set before us, your congregation must be highly improved and edified by your discourses, both in a religious, intellectual, and moral point of view, might it not be as probable that some person should have stepped into a conventicle, and have there heard the most exciting and improper language held forth to the people, as that you, Mr. William Reynolds, should designate those the enemies of religion, who should condemn, in times like unto the present, or in short at any time, such disgrace- ful conduct. I believe, Mr. Editor, that I was the first who had the honour of addressing a lucubration to the Dissenting Minis- ters of Wales, in the public press of the day, urging them to use their utmost and best endeavours with their several and respective congregations to restore peace, and to inculcate into the minds of the country people, not only the very pernicious example that some amongst them were setting, and the very serious offence they are committing, but also the very heavy punishment iikely to Sttach to the guilty aggressors—but to my astonishment l am only aware of one solitary instance of a Dissenting Minister at alFusing his in- fluence to promote peace and order- if there are other instances let Mr. William Reynolds and his fraternity dis- close them, and for theiqllolloui- make them known to-the world. Lawless bands, however still secretly combined to harass and alarm the peaceable subject? of her most gracious Majesty,—toll-gates, toll-houses, toll-keepers were attacked, —and as a result of impunity oae workhouse was ransacked, others threatened, and mansion-houses and private property, from threatening letters received by their owners, were ex- pected to be also visited in this state of things Mr. Cham- bers, a very respectable and vforthy magistrate as I am informed, much to his credit and honour, sent forth a letter addressed to tffe Dissenting Ministers of Wales, publicly urging them to use that influence which they are known to possess with the people, in order to prevail upon the guilty refrain from further outrages against the peace and law of to the realm but this judicious & highly proper interference of Mr. Chambers was no more attended to, at least if we are to believe the statement of Mr. William Reynolds, than would a request from him to them to preach to their flocks in the English language. We will now see what is the excuse Mr. Reynolds offers us for this conduct, he tells us that they did not interfere because the clergy had received no such order—a most impu- dent assumption of Mr. William Reynolds, for how could he possibly know what private orders had been transmitted by the right reverend Bishops and Prelates to the Clergy re- siding within their several and respective Dioceses but this shuflle and evasion will not do, he knew full well that many of the clergy arc in the commission ot the peace, and that they, in conjunction with the magistracy generally, were not only by adopting the most vigilhnt measures within their powcr to detect the guilty, but also by mild, conciliatory, and persuasive means, endeavouring to bring the people to a right sense of the serious responsibility some amongst them were subjecting themselves, by conduct so truly subversive of all order and security of property: but Mr. Reynolds g-oes on, and impudently insinuates that the members of the church are Rebecca's daughters. I copy his own words, and is supposed, says this learned miracle of Dissent, that most of Rebecca's daughters are members of the Church of Eng- land; and this, says Mr. Reynolds, is not incompatible with reason. ell done again thou dear friend of the Saviour destroyed. Copper being an article generally collected for your monthly support at the door of your Mount Sion, the constant friction arising from the handling thereof has, no doubt, infused into your constitution a quantum sufficit of sterling brass. Your gross attack on the)Church of England and its members, in order to screen your own delinquency of duty, is well understood, and duly appreciated by all churchmen, you may rely upon it. You dread her power and influence. May it predominate, and at no distant period extend, in a more enlarged degree, its protecting shield around the Principality. Verily, Mr. William Reynolds, if you were thrust forward as the redoutable champion for all the Dissenting ministry of Wales, you have, by the very shabby attempt you have made to extricate them from the odium likely to attach to them for their lukewarm and indifferent conduct, involved them in a dilemma from which they will not very easily release them- selves for I tell both you and them, that it was a duty incumbent upon you, without being goaded on to the act by others, to have done all in .your power to inculcate right principles into the minds of the Welsh people, to have in- structed them in time of need, not only in things divine, but also to have impressed on their minds respect for the magistracy, and obedience to the laws and, by all means, to have urged them to refrain from a system of lawless violence, which, so far from tending to remedy the evils of which they complain, would, if persevered in, increase them in a ten-fold ratio. That, independent of the punishment they would subject themselves to undergo by such outrageous breaches of the peace, the trade and commerce of the principality would be injured, if not destroyed ;-that the farmers thereby, through a general desertion cf all its watering places by the nobility and gentry of England, would be greatly injured, and the country brought to the verge of ruin. This should have been your language to your people, ye Dissenting ministers instead of which, by Mr. Rejnolds's admission, you stand neuter, and as mute as statues, until aroused from your reverie by the Editor of the TUlles; then, forsooth, in froth and passion, steps forward your valorous knight and defender, and talks of develish plots, friends of the Saviour destroyed, and all that sort of cant, and flourishes and rattles over our heads a tottering fabric, which, he says, is built on sand, and beautifully adorned with wood, hay, and stubble. oil, you naughty Editor of the 1 imes journal, who could thus drag forth to public view Mr. William Reynolds, the bright luminary of his fraternity. 0 Well may they dread the writer's fatal skill, Well may they humble when he draws his quill- The magic quill, that, like Ithuriel's spear, Reveals tile cloven hoof, or lengthened ear." I would, Mr. William Reynolds, that churches, composed of such materials as good Welsh stone and heart ot oak, were more plentifully to be seen towering their steeples amongst the mountains and vallies of Wales and that schools for the education and instruction of the Welsh people iu the English language were there, also, as plenti- fnlly to be found as are some nets to catch gudgeons il1, so that in the course of time Welshmen of altclasses throughout the principality might be rendered as capable of conversing iu one language us iu the otfivr. Xtiis, although a vonsyia- mation devoutly to be wished, is, nevertheless, I slyly suspect, a desire that conveys gaul and wormwood to your soul, Mr. William Reynolds; but you may rely upon it, that the day will come when Welshmen will doff the prejudices with which, I fear, they are at present too strongly imbued, through the agency of some persons, who, in the Welsh language, whimper, and simper to them, and talk about devilish plots, and friends of the Saviour destroyed. When this day arrives, Othello's occupation, I shrewdly guess, will be gone; and then your- splendid acquirements, Mr. William Reynolds, your tottering fabric, and hay, sand, and stubble" will all evaporate, or be consigned to the tomb of all the Capulets, upon which may appropriately be engraved the very significant words of "Requiescat in pace." I shall conclude by informing Mr. William Reynolds, that as in what I have spoken I may, probably, bring down on my shoulders the slander of the conventicle, I am a layman, and that my defence of the church of my forefathers may, consequently, be deemed as pure and disinterested as his uncalled-for and very unjustifiable attack upon her and that, in her behalf, I shall always be ready to return to her opponents, to the best of my very humble abilities, a Rowland for an Oliver. I beg to remain, Mr. Editor, Yours very faithfully, Septembers, 1813. L YCC HUGS. To the Editor of the Advertiser and Guardian. Sm,-Nothing could possibly have given me more pain than the statement which has appeared in the Times of the outrage committed upon private property, by those persons who profess to be struggling for their rights and privileges as free-born people. I could scarcely have believed it possible that WELSHMEN could so far commit themselves, that the sons and daughters of the mountain land could sink into that depth of depravity which characterises the uncivilized nations of the earth. Do they forget that Mr. Harris has quite as much right to enjoy his own opinion respecting the propriety of the" Farmers' Association" as they have to enjoy theirs; and can they blame any man for acting according to his conscience'? Let me ask them what caused their first muster ?—what gave strength to their arms, as well as an appearance of justice to their cause, but the opinion which they entertained that their cause was a just one And yet they—those very men —blame, nay, punish another for exercising that liberty of conscience which they themselves enjoy Oil Welshmen children of my own wild native land, will you struggle in a cause of niiyht agaitist t-iyht ?" IVill you, now that you have achieved a temporary victory, pourtray a despotism of character which is truly unworthy those who stand up in defence of their ancient privileges; whose cry is for Liberty. m Let me ask them, is that liberty only to be enjoyed by them- sehe's 'I-is it merely mocking an assumption of power, to be directed against individuals instead of against the evils which surround them! Do they think that SUCCESS can attend such a cause I will say, let them beware; Let them recollect that even a worm will turn when he is trod upon. Let them recollect more than that, that Rienzi, the great champion of Roman liberty, fell, because he enlarged upon his privileges, and would enforce taxes which even his own adherents proclaimed to be unjust! And see how ncarly you are following in his steps. Think of the tax which you would impose, and again ask yourselves whether you would sacrifice your liberty of conscience to rebels would any of you allow a body to monopolize over you without a strugg-Ie -nay, more—would you sanction the outrages you have been committing ] the violation of all those ties which bind communities together. Will you, Rebeccaites," be the first to exhibit a spirit of intolerance —the first to abuse—nay, more-the first to interfere with the liberty of the subject ? Let me ask you, individually, would you suffer a body to interfere with your private opinions, and destroy property if you would not conform to certain rules and regulations which you did not think just ? I answer, No! I say, you will be among the first to cry out for justice, for peace, and for liberty; then why do you not do unto others as you would that others should do unto you!" Why do you not act ill such a manner as to gain the confidence instead of awakening the suspicions of your neighbours ? For myself, I can only say, that I am no politician, no advocate of Whigs or Torics, of Radicals or Chartists. I look to measures, and not men and now, in the face of all men, I deprecate, I scorn that meanness of spirit, that littleness of mind, which has attributed these dis- turbances to the inlluence of Dissenting ministers. I know that the people have been oppressed, and I regret that land- lords did not sooner alleviate their sufferings. But now, my fellow-countrymen, believe me when I say, that your cause is in a good hand your cries have been heard by her Majesty, and she will answer them. But, oace more, be not deceived. You never will conquer if you seek to compel your neighbours to imbibe your opinions. Be firm, but be honest. Glory in your strength, but do not break the public peace. Do not destroy property, as you have done but let reason be your sword. Convince, and your object must be achieved. And now, Mr. Editor, having thus freely stated my opinions, I hope they may be the humble means of allaying the eN it, and call forth the of more talented individuals, whose words shall 0, swords, 'sharp and piercing; convincing the people of their eivbrs, and the means of restoring that tranquitity which has so long characterized the Principality of Wales. Let peace once more unfurl her banner, and may her standard be reared on every mountain, her songs echo forth from every dell and the merry song of the shepherd and the ploughboy again announce that order reigns in the land. Thanking you sincerely for your kindness in inserting this letter, Believe me to remain, Yours most sincerely, W. MILBOURNE KlltKIiOUSE. Brighton, September .1th, 1S13. To the Editor of the Advertiser and Guardian. Srn,-AlIow me to set you right regarding the gallant conduct of our police force under the command of the brave Captain Naj ier. "Honour to whom honour is due." I am qualified to give you a correct account, having conversed with Superintendent Peake, and examined the Spolia massia of the conflict. The report of the intended attack was communicated to Mr. D. Llewellyn, of Penllcgaer, who dispatched a purpose messenger for the police then under Mr. Peake. They set off late in the afternoon, and arrived at the residence of Mr. Llewellyn, who, together with three gentlemen mentioned ill the Cambrian's account, accompanied them to Pontardulais gate. Before they arrived they were joined by Captain Napier and two of the policemen in the neighbour- hood, making together six policemen, their two officers, and, the four gentlemen above referred to. They studiously avoided the roads, and even lanes, and crossed the country in as direct a line as they could, keeping together, and creeping along by the side of the hedges, until they arrived near Pontardulais gate. They distinctly heard the shouts, yells, and sounds of horns, as the Rebeccaites approached, but remained themselves concealed under a hedge, within about three hundred yards of the gate. They sent one of their party off along the Swansea road to expedite the ad- vance of the dragoons. When the Rebeccaites had de- molished the gate, and had commenced the attack on the toll-house, the Captain gave the wished-for command to close with them; and one of the magistrates called to those who were destroying the house to desist. Rebecca instantly cried out charge," and on the mounted mass came .'within fifteen yards of tiie handful of police, when they fired their guns, fortunately, without effect. That the guns were loaded with slugs or shot is evident from the fact of one of the prisoners being dangerously wounded in the back with slugs, which could not be from the police, as their pistols were all loaded with hall cartridge; and a shot pouch, half filled, was found on one of the captured men. The police then fired, and the horses, better trained to the plough than for battle, wheeled about, leaving the heroine of the night in the hands of the police. Some of them, however, re-loaded their guns, ani Parthian like, fired as they retreated. The hand to hand fight was, for a very short time, severe; and the police, one and all, spoke of the gallant bearing of their allies in the highest terms of admiration. The chief object was, naturally, the apprehension of Rebecca herself; and the gallant Captain boldly dashed at the horse's head, while two of the gentlemen nobly aided his efforts, doiiv good service with their swords. The swarthy heroine proved a regular Tartar, and, although wounded in the arm, manfully struggled with her captors. The result of the conflict was the seizure of the prisoners, three horses, several formidable bludgeons, two large sledge-hammers, and several smaller smith's tools, with two iron bars, used as borers in blasting rocks, bullock horns, and copper powder flasks, shot pouch, and tin blowing horns, pickaxe, felt and straw hats, a coat, various disguises, including Rebecca's state dress, quite new, made of stout white calico, with a cape behind to cover the head when desirous of concealing her face a large tartan cloak, a woman's cap, a blanket, several pieces of coarse canvass. The head dresses display much ingenuity in their contrivances. One hat, with the aid 01 three pieces of wood stuck in it, and covered with a piece of white calico, must have had a most grotesque appearance, especially by moon- light. Tufts of fern, and the tail feathers of the cock, added to the effect of others. The papers found on the persons of the prisoners add much to our information respecting this wide-spread plot. One of them contained five shillings, neatly folded up and scaled with two note wafers, and ad- dressed, "Mrs. Becca." Inside is, Thomas Thomas, Yslys-y-coed, 4th June, paid 5s. September 5th, paid 5s., at present," written in a bold hand. The other two papers are torn, but their contents can be easily made out one written in English and the other in Welsh. The former is a most dreadful threatening letter to some one, advising him to prepare for death and judgment, and signed by a "hater of tyrany (six), and one of Rebecca's daughters." The Welsti one seems a remonstrance about the conduct of some one in authority in removing one toll collector and appoint- ing another, who is alleged to be partial to his friends, and charging only half toll on some parties. The above, I can aver, is the correct account I received from the parties who behaved so bravely on the occasion. I had almost omitted, Mr. Editor, one particular, which at once evinces the arduous nature of the struggle with the Rebeccaites, that in rushing at the leader's horse, Captain Napier was opposed by some of the dismounted party, and, striking one oi the fellows with his sword, snapped it off in the middle but, nothing daunted, he continued his course until lie reached the horse's head, and fought twcly with the broken blade, \<\ I would not have troubled you but, from a feeling of duty, to correct a wrong impression which I see in the accounts that have been transmitted to you, and to the Carmarthen Journal, namely, that the military had any share in the capture of Rebecca-or her followers at the gate. The dra- goons did not arrive until some time after the conflict was over; and the soldiers brought from Llanclly by Mr. Chambers only captured four fugitives that were escaping from the gripe of the brave police. I remain, Sir, Yours respectfully. Neath, September 9, 1843. TRUTH.

EXAMINATION OF THE REBECCA PRISONERS AT LLANELLY. The following magistrates having assembled at the Union Workhouse, Llatielly, viz., Mr. R G. Neville, of Llangen- nnch-park; Mr. Rees, of Killatnanllwyd and Mr. Chambers, of Llanelly-house. The prisoners were brought up-William Hugh a lad of 15 years of age, disguised in woman's attire, and son of a very respectable farmer, of Talyclyn; Thomas Williams, servant to a farmer, at Llangennarh Henry Rogers, a farm servant, at Penllwyngwyn and Lewis Davis a respectable tanner, of Seybor Ucha, near Pontardulais, in the parish ot Llanon. It having been explained to them in Welsil that they were brought up for the purpose of hearing the evidence that would be adduced against them. Mr. Will lain Chambers, jun., was sworn as the first witness, and deposed as fullows :-1 am a justice of the peace acting for this county. I had information that there was to he an attack made last night upon the Pontardulais and Hendy- bridge gates; and in consequence of such information 1 ap- plied to Captain Scott, of the 70th Regiment of Foot sta- tioned here, to furnish me with a suffiicent number of soldiers to protect the Hendy-gate he did so, and we pro- ceeded accordingly anil at about half past 12 o'clock last night, having arrived at the wooden bridge over the GwiJly river, on the railway, we saw a rocket fired. Previous to our reaching this bridge, we had concealed the soldiers. The rocket was fired in the direction between Mynyddsalen and Llanedy. "lYe had between 30 and 40 soldiers with us. It appeared as if it came from the bogs at Llanor. We pro- ceeded on until we arrived near the Gwi1!y-hridge, which is between Hendy-gate and Pontardulais, and when there we heard the blowing of horns, which were sounded in one parti- cular note, which was repeated several time. In the course of four or five seconds after the last blast of the horn, we heard the report of fire arms in the direction of the Pontar- dulais-gate. All this while the soldiers were still concealed under the hedge, and I was in advance of where they were, about 100 yards. Hearing the fire-arms, I immediately returned to the soldiers, and got them to move into the field in which I was, south of the railway, and requested Captain Scott to order his men to load, which they did, and fixed their bayonets. We then proceeded with all haste to very near the wooden bridge over the Gwilly. When we had arrived there, I divided the men into two parties, one under Captain Scott and myself, and put the other under the charge of Mr. Payne, with directions that he should go as we were doing, and go under the cover of the hedges to cut off the retreat of the people from Ilcndy-bridge towards Llanclly. The firing which we heard continued about from seven to ten minutes pretty rapidly. During that time, I should say, that there were from 70 to 80 shots fired. Not being aware that any of the police were near the Pontardulais-gate, I considered the firing to be a sort of fim dajoic, which such persons do accord- ing to their usual practice when they have destroyed a gate. After they had destroyed the gate at Pontardulais, I fully anticipated an attack would be made on the Ilendy-britlge- gate, my information leading ine to snppose that it was to be attacked. While we were there I saw a man coming down the railway he was not running, but walking very fast. At this time the soldiers were hidden, and only one, ot us could be seen at a time. With the assistance of Captain Scott, I caught hoid of the man by the collar. The prisoner now present (Lewis Davies) is liie man. He was dressed in his usual dress, but he had the upper part of his face blackened, and the lower part done with red ochre. He had a straw hat on. As soon as he was taken, he put his head down and his right hand up, and put something under the tail of his coat. I immediately put my hand under, and drew forth the woman's cap now produced. I then left him in charge of Sergeant Gibb, with one' or two men, and ran as fast as I could up towards the turnpike-road between Pontardulais and Llatielly, which position was east of the Hendy-gate. I got the soldiers up into the position, and put them under the hedge, separating the field from the road. I then heard some people coiuiug along the road, and moved towards Pontardu- lais, beyond the soldiers, to peep over the hedge and see who they were, as they appeared to me to be going in the direction from Ilendy-bridge-gate to Pontardulais there were three or four the moon shone brightly, allll I fancy they saw the edge of my hat over the hedge, for they immediately whispered and turned back, atid the boy, prisoner William Hugh, who was disguised in women's clothes, got on the gate into the field where we were; but as soon as he saw the soldiers Iw turned back again and ran in the direction of Heiuly-bridge gate. The soldiers followed him and wmu of them caught him at the bottom of the hill. Two others went up the road towards Pontardulais, and another over the hedge towards the farm. I was following them, but hearing this boy shrieking out, I ran hack in that direction to prevent his making any more noise. He was much frightened, and I told him not to be frightened and he should not be hurt. I also asked him who he was. He was disguised in woman's apparel, and his face wa covered with black. He told me his name was Hugh, and that his father had just got over the hedge, and a servant- boy whose name he mentioned. When I fust caught hitu I thought he was a girl, but on observing he had trousers on I saw he was a boy. Just before these people came up the road I heard a noise in the direction of Swansea, which [ thought were carriages bringing up the troops, but 80011 found it was the galloping of cavalry. I then said to Captain Scott "It is no use our waiting here," and I made as quick an advance as we courd in the direction of Pontardulais, along the turnpike-road, the boy being left a prisoner in the charge of Sergeant Gihb. When we arrived at Pontardulais I saw the Dragoons gallop tip j'ist as we turned the corner. They took us for a body of the Rebeccaites coming back to the gate, and were about to charge us, but we called out halt," and some of the men presented bayonets. When we had found we were friends, we went on to the Pontardulais-gate, and found the gate was entirely destroyed, the windows of the house destroyed, the toll-hoard destroyed, shot marks on the top of the windows, and the inside gutted. There were three men lying handcuffed on the llaor. I knew it to be a dwelling- house. I then recognized a number of Glam organshire magistrates, and Captain Napier, and some of the rural police I as asked to go as a Carmarthenshire magistrate, and search some of the houses up the hill towards Llanon, where I heard there a number ot men had escaped wounded. I found that there were none there, but there was plenty of time for thej-n to have been removed. I then returned home. I forgot to say, that in returning the boy Hugh said "I have thrown my horn away over the hedge." I returned and searched for it and found the cow's-hom now produced, and in Davis's pocket an acceptance for E,10., a smelling bottle, and some nails. The acceptance ran thus- £ 40—23d August, 1K43. Two months' after date pay to my order the sum of forty pounds. Accepted; payable at the Joint Stock Bank, London Exchange." Henry Gibbs, sergeant in the 7oth Foot, sNi,orn.-I was yesterday night out with the soldiers and the magistrates. I had one of the prisoners given in my charge- 1 heard a shrieking in the field, and some of our men rulining—-looking down the road, I saw the two prisoners Henry Rogers and Thomas Williams walking up the railroad very fast. I took them into custody, and told them they were to fall in with the rest and staud at ease. They said they had not done any harm. I asked them what they were doing, and told them I wo,il,l let them go free it they would tell where the rest were gone. I asked them if they had been pulling the house down, and they said, No, they only went to look at it." They had not anything in their hands. The prisoners were then asked what they had to say and in reply. Lewis Davies said, that on Monday night 10 or 12 persons came to his house and pressed him. He did not know any ot them, but they shot off four or five guns, and threatened him it he did not join them last night, that they would burn his house and everything he had, and kill him, and they appointed him to meet them on the road to Llanou, and he went from fear. Henry Rogers said he only went ont to see them, hearing the account ot their coming, and Williams went with him. Thomas Williams confirmed this statement. William Hugh (the boy) said, that last night, between 12 and 1 o'clock, people holloaed- at their door, at Tallyclyn. He was in bed at the time. He went down to see what was there, and one of them caught hold of him, and told him that he was bound to go with them; that lie then dressed himself in his own clothes, but they put the woman's dress on him. When they got over Handy-bridge they gave him the horn to carry then they saw two persons coming against them and they turned back and he was going to get over the gate' when a lot ot soldiers came against him. > The prisoners were then ygtnanded.

HER MAJESTY. —IT is expected that Her Majesty, with his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the infant Princesses, will remain at Brighton for about a week or ten davs, re- turning to Windsor Castle from the Pavillion on the 10th or 18th instant. The Queen's private band of musicians have received an intimation that they will not be required to be in attendance at Windsor Castle until Monday, the 18th. It is even now rumoured that the Court will visit Waimer during the autumn. Indeed, it is stated that Her Majesty upon the departure of the Court from Brighton, will remain at Windsor for about a fortnight, for her illustrious consort to enjoy a few days' shooting in the Royal preserves, and then proceed with the Prince and the Royal Family to the Kentish coast; but, whatever may be the arrangements at present in contemplation, their being perfected wil1,lepend in a great measure upon the state of the weather at the close of the month. The King of Hanover arrived on the 4th at Antwerp, with a numerous suite, and took lodgings at the beautiful Hotel, St. Antoine-hill. A special train was ordered to convey His Majesty to Brussels to visit King Leopold, TiiC Queea of Belgium was shortly expected from iiu, SOMNAMBULISM.—In one of my rambles, I met with a very singular instance of somnambulism, in the daughter of a Circassian noble, N oghai Selim Guerrai, near the river Ubin. The girl was, probably, about twelve years of age, and had been suffering from the disease for the last two years. During the prevalence of the fit, which generally lasted from one to three weeks, she was accustomed to employ herself at embroidery, sing to her lute or deliver extempore poetry in a singing tone, always propjietic of some event that was to occur of importance to the country but, except on these occasions, she never uttered a word, nor answered a question, and seemed to address her warnings rather to some invisible spirit, than to the persons around her; she also prescribed for the sick, whom she mentioned by name, gave counsel to the warrior, reproved the wicked, and assured her country- men, that in their contest with Russia they would be ulti- mately successful; not one word of which remained in her recollection when she awoke from her magnetic sleep. While this aberration of her faculties continued her features wore an unnaturally serious expression for so young a girl her smell, also, was so acute, that she could discover the approach of any person she knew at a Considerable distance, to whom she evinced the most capricious dislike or partiality: her health appeared to suffer materially from these attacks, as she invariably awoke from her trance pale, and evidently much fatigued.—These somnambulists, or, as the French call them, clairvovantes," so peculiar to mountainous countries, seem to form a phenomenon in animal magnetism not yet perfectly understood. I met with a similar case some years sinrc; during a fishing excursion in the neigh- bourhood of Liathu, on the banks of the lake of Constance, in. the person of the daughter of the Baron van Rader; she was about the same age a-s our Circassian Cassandra, and, like her, gifted with prophecy. The duration of the fit, and the symptoms of the patient, were also similar, except that the young German lady frequently remained cataleptic for several hours, which I did not observe in the other.—Spen- cer's Travels in Circassia, GRAVE DOINGS OF REBECCA.As an instance of the alarming tone which the feeling of the people is taking, I hear to-day that a grave has been dug in Dynevor-park, near Llandilo, the seat of Lord Dynevor, the father of Colonel Trevor, the Vice-Lord-Lieutenant of the county, and a notice has been sent to Colonel Trevor that it is intended for him, and that he is to be laid in it before the 10th of October. This is talked of in the town to-day, and, as you may imagine, this state of society gives rise to very serious apprehensions VALUABLE DISCOVERY —It is stated from Vienna that the Abbe Baldaconni, of the Museum of Natural History of that citv, has composed a solution of sal-ammoniac and corrosive sublimate, which has the effect of giving to articles im- mersed in it the hardness of stone, without injury to their natural colour. Even the flesh of animals thus treated ac- quires this hardness, and gives out, when struck, a metallic sound. NOVEL OCCURRENCE.—A party of 10 men, headed by a person named llowells, entered a field of wheat, in the occupation of Mr. Guest, at Bromsborough-row-heath, in the parish of Dymock, between the hours of 10 and 11 on Monday night, which they cut, and carried off the wheat in two waggons brought for the purpose. Many of the cot- tagers and people of the neighbourhood were obliged to look contentedly on while they performed their task, as they threatened vengeance to any one who dared to interfere. Report states they were armed, and that two or three police- men were spectators, but were afraid, from their disparity of numbers, to attack them. RETURN OF THE SOUTH SEA EXf'rmITl().-Captain Sir John Ross, has just returned from his voyage of explomtion I to the South Seas. He transacted business at the Admiralty on Tuesday, having run up to town leaving his ship at Portsmouth. The gallant sailor was in excellent health and spirits, and expressed the greatest satisfaction at the result of his voyage. GREAT TURN-OUT OF MiNEns.—The colliery proprietors of West Cumberland, understanding that there was a general strike agreed upon by their workmen, to take place on the 1st of October, last week held a meeting, and came to- a re- solution Yiot to admit any one into their pits until he had renounced the Union. This brought oil at once the stand- out, and at present nearly all the pits in the whole district are standing still. Great meetings are held in different places, and Brophy, the delegate from the National Union of Newcastle, addressed them in the most exciting and en- couraging language. Several vessels in the ports along the coast are waiting for coals, but at present there is no prospect ef a reconciliation. The workmen stale several grievances under which they labour, such as being deprived, at the caprice of the bankman or overman, of a great portion of their fair earnings, under the complaint of (Ioliciciit measure or imperfect cleaning. The Tommy-shop system is another source of complaint. On the other hand, the masters con- tend that the coal trade is now in such a state as to require the most stringent system to get the coals sent to market free from dirt or slate: and that miners are a body of men that can only be dealt with in the way adopted. The stand-out, while it lasts, creates a complete stagnation in all the poits which are dependant on coal exportation. It is h p d that a mutual understanding will shortly take place, and alljust cause of complaint be removed. THE PITMEN'S BARRISTER.—We inserted a paragraph last week, taken, we believe, from some of our contemporaries, which was to the effect that the mineis' association of this and other districts had engaged a barrister to act in their behall at the signing of bonds, and to give them general advice, at a salary of £ 300 a year. Thomas Borrow an operative pitman, has written us to say that the gentleman (who is a Mr. Roberts) is to have a salary of £ 1000 for the first year, and 1;500 annually hereafter.— Tyne Mercury. APPREHENSION OF RICHARD DADi), THE SUPPOSED PARRICIDE, AT FONTAINEBLEAU.—This wretched young man, whose supposed crime excites so much attention, has been arrested at Fontainebleau for attempting the life of a fellow passenger with a razor, and in the most dangerous manner. The British Consul at the above place, as soon as soon as Lis identity was proved, communicated with the authorities, and immediately despatched a letter to Mr. Stephen Dadd, apprising him of the circumstances. OLD ENOUOII TO KNOW BETTER .—Three old women, named Deborah Jeffs, Sophia litiliard) and Alary Simniouds, whose united ages exceed 19(3 years, have just been committed to Abingdon gaol by Mr. J. one of the magistrates for the county of Berks for stealing beans. b BANKRUPTS.—Friday.—James Gilson Forsfer, Aldgate Tligh-strcet, tailor. Archibald Leslie and William Smith, St. Dunstan's-hill, merchants. Ludd and William Fenner, Ferlehurch-street, mereiiants. Richard Murphy, Manchester, draper.
