HAY. SCODES DEATH.—On the 2nd instant, a man named Charles Price, a mason residing in Chain-alley, Hay, met with his d?$fch, by falling down stairs whilst in a state of drunkenness. It-appears that Harriet Jenkins, wife of Henry Jenkins, living next door to the decease 1, heard a noise in the house of the latter, at about one o'clock p.m. on the day named, and upon going in to ascertain the'*ca'ud(i she found the deceased lying at the bottom of the stairs in a state of insensibility with a severe wound on the back part of the head.

LLANIDLOES. TNQUBST -Olt Thursday s nt.ight, an inquest was held at the Queen's Head Hotel, before W. Slyman, Esq., M.D., coroner, and a respectable jury, fit whom Mr William Pearce was foreman, touching the death of George Lewis, who came to his death from injuries received in an accident, of which particulars were given in our last week's impression. Ann Jones, the mother OF the deceased child, s-id he was four years of age, and a s'rong, healthy, child; last Monday, be- tween three and four o'cook in the afternoon, she left him in Long Bridge-street, in company with his brother, Rowland, aged seven y»ars, who, about a quarter of an hour afterwards, came calling to her, and saying that the little boy had fallen over the bridge; she was hastening to the spot when he met Thomas Owen carrying the child in his arms to his own house; he was then apparently insensible, and was afterwards removed to his home; witne-s remained with him up to his death, which took place at half- past one o'clock that morning; Mr. W. A. Davies saw deceased immediately atter the accident and bad since attended him; deceased had been in the habit of playing about the streets. Thomas Oven said he lived at the Old Lock-up; between three and four o'clock on Monday afternoon, he heard a noise about ten yards from his cottage; heran out and heard some one crying that her little boy was dead; he went to the wall of the bridge, and on looking over saw two boys endeavouring to carry deceased from a rock; he Went to their assistance and carried the child to his own house; witness at first thought the child was quite dead, but be afterwards rallied for a time; it was a. constant prac'ice for children to get upon the wall of the bridge and walk upon the top, but witness did not believe that a child of four years of age could get up unassisted. The Coroner here said that he had seen the bridge, and there was evidently not sufficient pro- tection against accidents of this nature; he had al,o noticed the condition of Penycraig, where there was property belonging, as one ot the jurors remarked, to Mr. Pryse, printer, and others, which he (the Coroner) thought was a public nuisance, AI D ought to be in- dicted as such. The owners might not be aware of the responsibility they incurred by having property in such a defenceless condition, but in the event of an accident occurring in consequence they would be ex- posed to an action under Lord Campbell's Act, and the sufferer would recover damages proportionate to his position in life. The defect with regard to the Short Bridge was remediable by placing an iron pal- lisading- upon the top. A juror remarked that he had known instances of horses and cattle leapipg over the bridge. Isaac Lewis, aged 13 years, said he lived in Short Bridge-street; he knew the deceased whom he saw on Monday lat about four o'clock in the afternoon, or perhaps rather earlier; he was sitting that afternoon at his tea when he saw the brother of the deceased run around the bridge to get down into the river, and he told witness that his little brother bad fallen over the bridge; witness accompanied him and found deceased with his feet in the riv, r and his body lying on the rock; Thomas. Owen took the boy to his own house; had often seen boys getting on the bridge, and had sou etimes done so himself. P.S. Owen here intimated that the height of the wall from the road was found, upon admeasurement, to b* 2 feet 11 inches, but in the-centre it was 3 feet-the average height was 3 feet. Mr. W. A. Davies, sur- geon, s.aid he was called between three and four o'clock on Monday afternoon to see the deceased, who was then lying at the house of Thomas Owen, near the bridge; he was quite insensible, and continued so up to his death; upon examination witness found that he had sustained several separate f actures of the skull; there was evidence also of concussion of the brain, but he detected no further injuries; deceased lngered until about one o'clock that morning, wnen he died. The Coroner, in summing up, told the jury fiat this was clearly a case of accidental DEATH, hut he would rei'ommend that the Court of Q«>art«-r Se-sion be me- morialised with a view of placing some effeciive pro- tection against a repetition dt this aci ident; and added tbat he would be but too happy personally to carry out those views. —Verdict: '■ ACCIDENTAL death." SERIOUS ACOIDSNT — On Thursday sennight, Mr. William Jones, of the Black Lion Inn, Llanguerig, was returning from Newtown fair, where he h..d pur- chased a young horse, upon which he was then riding, when, on arriving at the Railway-b, idgep near Mor- fodion, the horse being frightened by a train which at that moment dashed under the bridge, started off, throwing its rider with great violence to the ground. He was immediately conveyed by some persons who were with him to the Crown Inn, in the town, and soon attended by Mr. W. A Davies, by whom he was sent home, and under whose skilful and junicious treatment, although he had received some very serious scalp wounds, in addition to some internal injury to the back, it is satisfactory to relate that he is now progressing favorably. STRTIIE.-The shoemakers of this town, to thp num- ber OF about 30, struck ou Monday last for an advance of wages.

» CRICKHOWELL. PETTY SESSIONS, AUGUST 3RD, before WILLIAM HENRY WEST and M. J. ROBERTS, Esqrs., and Sir J. it BAILEY, Bart, M.P. ASSAULTING THE POLICE.—Jeremiah Holland, other- wise Butcher Holland" was brought up in custody under a warrant of remand, on a charge of assaulting the police, at Brynmawr, whilst in the execution of 'heir duty, on the 28th of July last.—P.C. Evan Watkins deposed: About eleven o'clock p.m., on Saturday, the 28th Jul.v, I was on duty in Beaufort- street, Brynmawr; I saw William Haines coming up the street, near the Mitre; Jeremiah Holland came out of a cook slshop, knocked htm down, and kicked him; I stopped him and told him to go home, but Haines gave him in charge for thp assault; I then went with Sergeant Philips and P.C. Jones to the Royal Exchange public-house, to apprehend him; we told Holland the charge, and asked him to cflmp quietly, but be would not, and struck me several times: when we got him out of the house he got me down, got on top of me, and tried to knock my head ag dnst the ground, and to kick me; he threatened to do for," me. Cross-examined by the prisoner: When I came to the Royal Exchange you said you would be d-d if you would come; I struck you in self-defence, after you struck me.-P.S. Phillips Deposed: I accompanied P.C.'s Watkins and Jones on Saturday night, the 28th of July last, to apprehend Jeremiah Holland charged with assaulting William Haines We found him at the Royal Exchar ge; he said in answer to the charge, he would be d-d if he would come; I caught hold of him by the waist, and drew him to the middle of the room; he struck Watkins, kicked me, and knocked P.C. Jones down, and when we came out he threw Watkins on his back to the ground. Cross-examined by the prisoner: I hit you with my fist on the neck after you struck me. The prisoner was fined 25 and costs, or in default of immediate payment two months' hard labor in the House of Correction, at B ecoa. The fine and costs not being forthcoming, the defen- dant was committed.-Thu- same defendant was then charged by William Haines with assaulting him, at Brynmawr, on the 28 h of July last. This was the case out of which the assault on the police arose. Dtfendant was fined on this charge X3 and costs, and in default of payment was committed to the House of Correction for a further term of one month. ANOTHER CAsE.-Timotlty Lynch was brought up in custody on a charge of assaulting and resisting P.C.'s Morgan and Foley, at Beautort, on the 29th July. The defendant admitted the offence, and was fined j61 and costs, or in default one month's hard labor. Committed. OFFENCES AGAINST THE HIGHWAY ACT.-Richard Hughes and Evan Lewis, bo'h of Gilwern, were sum- moned by P.C. Thomas Williams for permitting their donkeys to stray on the highway within the parish of Llanelly. Hughes was fined 5s..and costs, and Lewis 2s. and costs. COUNTY COURT, WEDNESDAY, before His Honor J. M. HERBERT, judge. At this bi-montbly court, held at the Town Hall, there were 76 causes entered for hearing, several of which were settled out of Court, and those that came on for hearing were of no public interest. Before commencing with the cause list, however, his Honor delivered judgment in the case Jones v. Hughes, which was heard on the 7th of February last, his Honor then deferring his judgment until the April Court, when it was again put off at the request of both parties, in order to try and effect a compromise, in which they failed, and his Honor now delivered the following judgment:—The plaintiff is a glazier in this town, and the defendant is the Rector of Cwmdu, in this neighbourhood, and the action is brought to re- cover the sum of Y-24 10s. 8d., for repairs to the win. dows cf Cwmdu Church, of which £ 3 10s. was due for repairs to the chancel windows, and the residue for repairs to the windows of the church. The defen- dant admitted his liability iu respect ot the chancel windows, but denied the rest of the claim. The plain- tiff's bill had originally included a further sum of £ 1 14s. 9d., and he brought a previous action against the present defendant and a Mr. George Morgan (who was one of the churchwardens of the parish when part of the work was done), for the amount of his entire bill; but on my holding tbat, under the circumstances proved, a joint action would not lie, and that Murgan was clearly liable for XI 14s. 9d., the plaintiff elected to' have the present defendant's name struck out as a defendant to the former plaint and to take judgment against Morgan for the said sum of £1 14s. 9d. He then brought this present action for the residue of his claim. The facts of the case wer as fo:lows: In March, 1862, one of the windows of the church was blown in by a high wind, and Morgan, who was the churchwardeD, ordered the plaintiff to replace it, and also to repair and secure another of the windows The cost. of this work was 21 14s 9d. W illlt. plaintiff 's journeyman was engaged in doing this ork the defen- dant was constantly at the church for the purpose of seeing that the work was properly done, and there is no doubt that some conversation passed- between him and the journeyman, in which he expressed a h >pe that he would make a complete and perfpct job; but what he actuary said, and whether it amounted to an order for additional work, was in dispute. William Williams, the plaintiff's journeyman, gave the follow- ing evidence: The first order was given hy George Morgan. The first work was putting in a window that had been blown in by the storm; when I had com- pleted that work, I told defendant the windows were in very bad repair. He said while you are about it you had better put them all in repaIr; whilst I am preaching the windows make such a noise that the congregation cannot hear. He was there almost every oay. I asked him about the chancel windows, and he told me to put th-m in repair. I did repair the chancel windows; that work is included in this bill. When the whole of the work was done, I went round with him and sounded the windows, and it was like a bell. He said, It is something like a job now." He did noc tell me, when he gave the order, to whose account, it was to be charged. I saw George Morgan; he told me to put in the window that was blown In by the storm, and to tie another window. He did not tell me to tie the rest of the windows. The defendant said, "I hope and trust you will do a thorough go "d job of them now." Morgan gave the following evi- dence. I was told of a window b ing blown out. Mr. Francis, one of the farmers in the parish, and defen- dant directed me to get the window repaired. I sent f.)r the plaintiff and poin ed out the woik to be done to Williams. I ordered him to repair the window blown out, and to tie another window. Defendant said to me, "You had better get the other windows put in repair." I told him that I had no funds to pay for what I had already ordered, and I refused to order anything more. I heard nothing more about it till the bill came. The bill was lid before the parish meeting. On the 16tb January, 1863, a vestry wis called for the pfirpose of auditing the churchwarden*' accounts for the past year, when was it resolved unani- mously that a church-rate of lid. in the pound be allowed and collected to pay the amount due to Mr. Jones, the glazier. Mr. Ricketts and Mr. Po..ell were the churchwardens in the following year. The defendant's evidence was as follows:. One of the windows was blown out, and Morgan told me it would be put in next week. I went to the church whilst Williams was doing the work. I asked him what his orders were; he said, H I am to put in the window that was blown out, and to tie those that are shaking." Morgan has told me frequently that he gave orders to put the window in, and to lie the others. Iveryliketysaid; "I hope you will make a good job of it;" I believe the oiders were given by the churchwarden. I was at the paiish meeting when it was resolved to make a church rate for the payment, of the bill the resolution was signed in the vestry hook by myself and five others, all who were present; the matter was again considered at a parish meeiino- held on the 3ht March, 1864 two of the leading parishioners, Mr. Lord and Mr. Isaac, were then depu'ed to see the plaintiff about his bill, with a view to get it reduced. About two years after I met plaintiff at Crickhowell, wheo he told me he was surry he should have to sum-tion the C-mdu churchwardens to this Court; I begged him not to do so I told him that a resolution had been passed that he should be paid, and I woudered hat the parish should not have paid it I never promised to pay him, or to see him paid. George Morgan did not ell me he would not order any furiher, r> pairs as he had no funds in hand. I never asked Morgan to give, further orders. The plaintiff in his books of account debited the whole amount to Cwmdu Church, without d sii >guisbin>' between the wo k ordered by Morgan and that subse- quently done. whether in the chancel or in the body of the church, and he included the w:lole account in one bill against the churc wardens, and never made any demand on the defendant personally un, it he bringing of this action, or just before. With this conflict of evidence it is very difIkult-almost impossible—to arrive at a satisfactory co-,clusloti as to the exact part taken by the defendant in ordering the latter portion i f the work. If his own testimony be accepted as the true account of the matter, it seems clear that he never incurred any liability except in respect of the repairs of the chancel windows-for he did nothing more than express a very natural anxiety that. the work wh ch the plaintiff's journeyman was about, and which the parish was under a legal obligation to get doije- and which it was as nec..ssary for his own comfort as for that of the general body of the parishioners should be done well— should be doue perfectly and thoroughly; hut. if the evidence of Williams, the journeyman, be accepted-and it certainly is corroborated in imp -rtant particulars by that of, Morgan—then the question. arises, did he order the work on his own credit, or did he assume to act as the agent of that irresponsible body, the parish, and order the work on the credit of the parish ? Now I think it quite clear that the defen- dant never intended to pledge his own credit; and the entries in the plaintiff's books, and the whole of his conduct up to a very recent period, are, in my opinion, quite conclusive that he understood the order to be given on the credit of the parish. The bulk of the work was what the inhabitants of the parish, and not the rector, are under a legal obligation to get done. He had received orde's from the proper parochial authority to do part of the work which was required to he ione; and when the rector ordered be remainder of the necesstry wot k (which it was equally incumb nt on the parish to do). the plaintiff ei her would, as it seems to me, conclude that the work was ordered on the credit < f the parish, or upon charging the rector with it would take the precaution of inquiring direcly from him whether he intended to make himsdf personally liable for the cost. He would Dot be content with any dubious order not defining to whom the credit was to b* given. He made however, no such enquiry; and, having charged the parish tbr ouahout, I consider it quite clear that he did the work under this nehef-that it was clearly on the credit of the parish and not on the defendant. Assum- ing then that the defendant gave the order for the latter portion of the work, 1 am of opinion that credit was given to the parish, the plaintiff having s -nt in his bill to the parish, and the parish having in vestry assembled unanimously allowed the bill, and ordered a rate for its payment; and this ratified or adopted the orders given by the deferdant. I tbink the plaintiff has now no right to have recourse to the defendant. It may, perhaps, be thought that the defendant is liable because he assumed to act for an irresponsible principal, viz.: the parIsh-but I ap- prehend that makes no difference if the credit wo-re clearly given to the irresponsible principal. In Smith's Mercantile Law it is thus laid down: "It has be. n maintained that vhen a British agent is responsible, this is said to be for the benefit of trade, or is, per- haps, a breach of the following general rule, viz.: that where there is no responsible employer the agent shall be held personally liable." The rule itself seems to be one of. evidence, and all cases falling under it to be reducible to the question: to whom was credit Igiven," for it seems on the one hand that if a party cho-,s- s to give credit to irresponsible persons of any descrip- tion, actng by their agents, and it is manifestly in- tended that the agent's credit shall not be pledged in such a case, the agent would not be responsible. While on the other hand it is cl ar that if the agent contracts for an irresponsible employer, a strong presumption will arise that he meant to pledge his own credit, and that the party dealing with htm meant to accept it, unl-ss, indeed, he be a government or public officer acting in his public capacity. Hence, therefore, as I have concluded that the defendant never me mt to pledge h s own credit, nor the plaintiff to accept it, but that the plaintiff did work u> der the belief that the parish would pay for it. I am of opinion that the plaintiff can only recover in this ae- ion the sum of X3 10s. Od., the agreed amount for repairing the win- dows of the chancel, and I will either give the plain- tiff judgment for that amount or a non-suit, if the plaintiff elects to be non-suited in order to take the opinion of a higher Court. The plaintiff, acting under the advice of his solicitor, Mr. G. Sydney Davies, took judgment for the JE3 10s. Od.

BRYNMAWR. PETTY SESSIONS, WEDNESDAY, before JOHN JAYNB and L. POWELL, Esqrs. WAGES CASE.—William Jenkins v. J. Davies.-Com- plainant, who had been workimg for defendant at the Trevil Lime Quarry, claimed X3 Os. 6,1. as arrears of wages. The defendant said he had paid complainant at the rate of 18s. per week, and now he claimed 22s. per week. It was elicited by the Bench, however, that no specific agreement had been made between the parties, and as they considered complainant to be entitled to the amount he claimed they made an order accordingly, defendant being also ordered to pay 7s. costs. LEGAL APPLICATION --Mr. W. Lewis, clerk to Mr. Goodere, solicitor, applied to the Bench to have some cases adjourned unfit the arrival of the next train, urging as grounds for their doing so, that at soma previous courts, Mr. Goodere had waited for the enn- vience of the Bench. The Bench assented, remarking that they were always willing to oblige both attorneys and their clients, in any reasoaable requests, but busi- ness sometimes prevented them from attending at the very minute the Court "as announced to be opened However, they would wait for the arrival of the next train to oblige Mr. Goodere, yet it must be understood that it was not compulsory «.p them to do so-but an excep ion and not the rule between the magistrates and attorneys. BEERHOUSE OFFENCE.-Mary Davies, of the Welsh Harp beerhouse, Beaufort, pleaded guilty to having violated the Beer Ac, on Sunday. This being the first efftfoc and defendant's husband having gone to America, the case was dismissed with a caution upon payment of 6. cnsts. CHARGE OF DRUNKENNESS. Marv Ann Davies, of Brynmawr, was charged by P.S. Phillips with being drunk and disorderly at 3.20 a.m. on Sunday last, in Ranter-street. The defendant denied the charge. Complainant called P.C. Jones to corroborate his evi- dence. The officers said they were in company and saw the defendant bleeding on the head from the effecis of a blow which she said her husband had given her with a child's c'lair. Defendant called a neigh- hour to prove that she was not d. unk but in an ex- cited state from the abuse of her husband This witness said sh., had known defendant for some time time and had never seen her drunk. The Bench re- marked that the evidence was very conflicting, conse- quently they should like to hear what some of the neighbours would say as to defendant's general con- duct. Mr. J nes tailor, was called and said defen- dant's hushand bad worked for him a long while; be was a drunken man, and he believed lived very uncom- fortably with his wife, but he knew nothing about the wife's drunkenness in this case. The police brought forward a female neighbour to prove that the defen- dant was in the habit of getting drunk, hut this witness upon being examined proved to the contrary. The defendant said she asked the Police-sergeat t to defend her and take her husband into custody for abusing her, but he would not. The Bench ultimately dismissed the case, advising the defendant" not to lot her unruly member run so fast." DRUNK AND Ri,,TOUS. George Watkins the younger, was charg. (I by P.S. Phillips with being very drunk and riotous, in the streets of Brvmniwr. Mr. Goodere appeared for the defendant. The police officer said a man named William Davies and tbe defendant were drunk and making a disturbance. Davies was appre- hended, but he could not catch Watkins; he, however, knew h s voice. Mr. Goodere argued that P.S. Phillips, an old Metropo'itan officer, ought to know that such shouting as defendant bad been guilty .,f, even in the S, rand, in London, would not he considered riotous, much less in Brynmawr. The Bench th> ught, as Davies had pleaded guilty to drunkenness, the defendant was also drunk, aud he was therefore fined 5s. with 6s. c.osts. A LEGAL QUIBBLE. -G. A. A. Davies v. Dallimore and Wilson.- Cora plai nant was the Ma--istr.tesCl rk, and the defendants were two street hawkers, who had been summoned at the last Petty Sessions and con- victed for violation of the Highvay Act, by obstruct- ingthe road with their ca'ts. The present summonses were issued to recover 2s. from each defendant as arrears from the last Court, which had been omitted to he charged in the costs bill through an error. Mr. Goodere appeared for the defendants, and held that the claim was a dt>bt, over which tbe B nch had no jurisdiction, it bt'in¡; clearly a matter f.-r the County Cou t Judge; that, the hill was made and paid at the last Court, and once done so, hy law, it could not be opened again; if an additional charge were made it must come as a dt-bt in which case the Bench had no jurisdiction. The complainant took a different view of the case, and thought be could recover in this Court by order of the Bench, but rather than raise the. question in law, he would forego the claim, if h s friend did not in point of honour think he was t-ntit led to it. Mr. Goodere believ»d that rooially his clients were liable, and he should advise them to pay the 2s. each, but no costs. The Bench appeared to concur with Mr. Goodere's suggestions, but aftep a ptiva e consultation between Mr. Goodere and h s cilents bo.h defendants took advantage of the clerical error, and refosed to comply with their advocate's advice. 1 alhmore, who is an old off nder, left the Court with the friendly advice to keep his dish upright" for the future, or his stupidity would be brought home to him. ♦

TALGARTH. THE RAILWAY STATION.—We are given to under- stand that Mr. Williams, the present master of this station, is about to leave Talgart 1 to take charge ot the sta ion at Rhayader, and that Mr. Pricp, the pre- sent station-masier at Rhayader, will take Mr. Williams' place here. Mr. Williams has during his short stay here gained much respect by his obliging manner no less than bv his strict attention to duty, and we have no doubt, from our knowledge of Mr. Price, that the inhabitants of this district will find in him an equally obliging officer. PETTY SESSIONS, WEDNESDAV.-Befor- H. ALLEN, J. W. VAUGHAN, and W. PEBROTT, E,,qrs. and Rev. H. BOLD AFFILIATION.- Tliomas Pugh, farm servant at the Lower Hduse, Llyswen, was cha -ged by Mary Pr ce, Coaibrook, for the support of her illegitimate child, which was born on the 28th of June last. Defendant was ordered to pay Is. 61. per we,-g from the time of aoplicatilln, together with the costs, £1 18-. 6d. The Bench r-comm, nded the complainant not to allow the defendant to run in arrears more than 13 weeks, as affiliation arrears would not be recoverable if over that period.

Mr. Baker, who appeared for the defendant, contended that defendant had settled with complainant, as his books would show. The books were inspected by the Bench, who, finding them to have been badly kept, decided the case in favour of complainant. CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT. George Williams fthe com- plainant in the preceding case), was charged by his master, James Gittins, with embezzling the sum of 35s. Prosecutor deposed that the defendant occasionally received money for goods he delivered, and it was his duty when he returned to account for it; on the 20th of June defendant was sent to Mrs. Lewis, of Llanelly, with flour, having with him a bill for the sum of 35s. due from Mrs. Lewis to prosecutor; Mrs. Lewis paid the amount, and defendant gave her a receipt, but on his return he did not inform prosecutor that he had received the money; consequently Mrs. Lewis's account remained unsettled.

POETRY. -(,- THE DOVE. (" Though heaviness may endure for the night, joy cometh in the morning.") > Fond memory on the past will ever dwell, Without one hope for future hours or years: With love-born woes this throbbing breast doth swell, While deathless tenderness the dull sky clears. The beautiful, the true, the kind, forsake; Why should I ?—adding tG love's cruel woes? Death-for this heart can bleed, but never break- If heaven it brings not, surely brings repose. The fight is o'er-the victory is won, By loveliest bird on which the sun hath shone; Love's dazzling sunbeams smile away our fears, And gild in beauty our remaining years I And thou, thou sweet creation! my soul's child! Who ever fluttered round me, sweetly smiled, And wooed from hell to heaven with thy fair sight, Too oft thou'rt gone-and with thee love's delight! And often do I sigh, and droop, and bleed, With each fresh bruise upon a withering reed! Thou, too, bast left me-I am lonely now- But future ills I scorn, like faithless vow! I know thy worth-in the sustaining force Of love's own spirit shall be found resource! Though weak as weakness, I'm not mad-and whv t Oh, heaven-born beauty! could'st not thou reply ? I were not, love, delirious of heart, To lift my love far higher than thou art; I know my faults, and feel each punishment Not less because THY quiver e'er is spent! That doves are beautiful, I far from blind- 'Tis this that triumphs over heart and mind; And let my foes me torture as they will, This heart can multiply thy beauties still! Successful love may waste itself away, And in one short hour wither and decay; The truest are most faithful-Itis their fate To have all other passions love dilate, As mighty Amazons in ocean pour, Till it grow fathomless and know no shore! Look on a love that triumphs in despair, And all unyielding is my better part, Deep dwelling in this lorn and wasted heart, As dwells dread lightning in each threatening cloud, Encompassed in each dense dark-rolling shroud, till smote—forth flies the swift-winged blinding dart, Dealing its bit thplace its most direful smart; And thus, at softest mention of thy name, The dazzling thought wild flashes through my frame, And, for an instant, all of earth and air Whirl by me—they are gone:—Ever the same! And yet my love ambitionless e'er grew; I knew thv worth, thy station-and I knew A princess, a meet love-mate for her hard! I've felt it, breathed it, and it is and was Stronger than strength-dealing its own reward; But if mine eyes reveal it, they, alas !— Yet think not that at being surpassed I pine— Are whelmed by the bright eloquence of thine; For nought on earth I Inve thee, but that lore Robes thee in heaven's own glory, and arrays Thv glorious form in beauty that dismays- Nav! not dismays-but smites, like fire above; And in that sweet serenity is, was, A beauty that soft witcheries doth surpass— I know not how-thy spirit grapples mine- Vanquished I fill before thee! It mav appear Presumptuous, thus to yield without design; The fatal weakness oft doth cost me dear I But thou gTow'st dearer still, and I should ba Fit for the hell that gapeth, but for thee! The very love that locks each galling chain, Snaps it in twain and for the rest, When powerless, gives me vieour to sustain- Proudly gaz" on thee, with wild swelling breaet- And laugh to scorn each gift of cruel pain! No marvel is't—that from acquaintance birth Mv soul's been drunk with love, which doth pervade And mingle with the dreariest scenes on earth Of objects, animate, inanimate, I've made Beauty—out of wasted lonely flowers, And rocks, whereon they grew, a paradise, where I did stretch at length, within the shade Of leafless trees, through long and cheerless hours, Though laulhed at for my folly; that the wise Shook their too sapient h ads, and smiled, and said- Of such materials worthless birds are made;" That in the furnace oft my spirit's proved, Like iron in molten fire, since I can love- Because I love what, not to love, and see, Cnuld not belong to mortal or to me; That thou, queen Beauty! never wer't ashamed. That for thee in this breast love dwells untamed- That thus I yet can love-nor blush to hear That thou before all monarchs art most dear; That thousand worlds spring up—all-peopled, too- Whene'er I hear thee breathe but one soft coo I This beauteous nook shall be lovp's sacred spot, When banquet, dance, song, revel, are forgot; And robed in vigorous life, or soft repose, Be thou—thou sh all that wealth, \outh, beauty throws Of magic round thee cease to be-shalt have The gl orious wreath, defying time and rave! No power on earth shall tear our names anart- No pnwpf all earth shall rend thee from this heart! Yes, Beauty; like fair ivv round the oak-it is our fate- Thou'lt graceful twine around me, andfor ever—if too late! JEUAN.

CORRESPONDENCE. [Corrtspondents are required to give their names; not necessarily for publication, but as a guarantee of goodjaUh.)

LLANIDLOES TOWN COUNCIL. To the Editor of the BRECON COUNTY TIMES. DEAR STU,-Will you Vindly oprmit me a space in your folunons for the fallowing comtrunicalion upon a snbj1 cf in which several of the tradesman and rate- pavers of the b-roiiqh hive expressed an interest, which I think you will agree with me it is but little less than natural that they should feel. The u,ui] quarterlv meeting 6f the Town Council was held on F'idav evening, at seven o'clock, at the very small and, for such purpose, Pxcp, dinlzly inconvp- nipTit office of Mr John Jenkins Havinsr been pre- viouslv apprised that, the business of the uneetinff was evpeeted to he of unusual public interest, n conse- nupnee of some sanitary measures which would pro- hftMv he brought under notice, and which at this particular crisis would be invested, we may suppose, wi h some additional importance, I proceeded to the office; and addressing myself to the chairman, T. F. Robots, Esq., stated that I had occasion, as your Reporter, to trespass upon his courtesy to afford me facilities for t'kinsr notes of the proceedings, with a v',P,v of publishing th" same in the BRECON COUNTY TIMES. Un to that time I am not aware that any mpptintj of the Town Council had ever been attended by a Roportor. or that any Reporter had even thought it worth wbile to attend one; and I had thprefore tAk"n the precaution of seeking a private interview with several of the members, who. previous to the meetingr, expressed not only their opinion that the presence oR a Reporter was desirable, but each one expressed his intention of supporting in the Courcil the application which T was about to prefer. To this application Mr. John Jenkins alone demurred, and I asked the Chairman—than whom a more courteous and ohliping gentleman could not be found in the county—to bp pleaspd to take the sense of themeetinsr upon the subject. This Mr. Jenk'ns thnuzht-and T agrpe with him-should be done in my absence. I therefore expressed mv readiness to retire, begging that T mieht he favoured with an intimation of thpir decision. Mr. Jpnkins replied, Oh. vou c--n have that intimation to-morrow." I l'eplipil that, as the proceedings of the meeting would terminate that even- ing it would be no satisfaction to me to receive, that intimation at a time when it would be out of my power to obtain the notes, which I required that evening. The minutes," Mr. Jenk'ns replied, will be on the books." I expressed a doubt, which Mr. Jenkins's answer proved a wI-II grounded on", of his willingness to allow me access to the book. That gentleman said. "No, I'll give them (the minutes') to no one." I replied that in 'hat case f should prefer taking my own notes. The Chairman said this was a novel applica- tion. and he thought it a fair subject, f. r discussion by the members and Mr. John Jenkins having said, in answer to my application, that he would be guided by the decision of the Council in allowing or refusing me access to the minute hook, I left the room. I have not received fron Mr. Jenkins the intimation of the C uncil's decision; but, have been i"formed that, for some rpaqon or the other, they resolved upon pro- hibiting the personal attendance of the Reporter, but would grn,nt him permission to inspect the minutes at the termination of the proceedings. Of this offer, you, Mr. Editor, will be at. no loss to understand my sentiments when I inform you, and the Town Council of Llanidloes, through you, that I disclaim all inten- tion of availing mvself. One gentlema", I may re- mark, and he a number of the Council, subsequently informed me that a great, deil of nonsense was often talked at thnse meetings which it was not desirable to see in print. Now, Sir, I have no wish to run a tilt against the Town Council, or against, the characteristic seclusive- ness with which the public business of the borough is so pre-eminently conducted; a subject upon which an article has already appeared in your columns, and of which I have every reason to believe that. at no very remote period, you are destined again to hear. My reason for troubling yon, is that. several of your readers have expressed th ir' surprise that a Reporter should have been excluded from this meeting, and their conviction that they have aright, through the medium of the Press, to know something more of the proceedings of their representatives in Council assembled," than can be gathered from the minutes of the Clerk's book, That Mr. Nokes proposed, Mr. Stiles seconded, and the meeting unanimously Con- curred, that immediate steps should be taken for deodorisiug a cesspool at the back of Thomas Brown's dwelling-house, situated at Severn Port, within this borough." I remain, dear Sir, Yours obediently, HARRY COUCH, Reporter. :c«.
