UNWHOLESOME FISH.—Yesterday morning Mr. Col- lard, our indefatigable Market Inspector, destroyed a quantity of fish, which from its putrescent state was com- pletely unfit for human food, and could not but have been productive of deleterious effects if eaten. All the fish- women in the market disowned it, nor could-Mr. Collard ascertain who had purveyed such unwholesome and disgusting aliment. ALLEGED CASE OF CHOLERA.—Considerable alarm was caused on Monday last by a rumour which gained general prevalence, that a death had occurred in the picturesque village of Llanllwch, in this parish, from Asiatic Cholera. An inquest was held on view of the body by John Hughes, Esq., coroner, on Monday evening in Llanllwch schoolroom, when the following evidence was adduced, and which we deem it rather important to gife the utmost publicity to at a period when so many alarrningreports are current. Elizabeth Morris, the nurse who attended David Jones (the de- ceased) in his last moments, deposed that she attended upon him from eight o'clock the previous evening until his decease. He was in a state of stupor the whole time, and neither ate, drank, nor spoke, but took one pill which was administered to him. He was perspiring during the entire night, and his fingers got a little dark- ened about the nails in the morning. The Rev. Thos. Williams, Incumbent of Llanllwch, deposed, that Sophia Davies called at his house on Saturday morning about nine o'clock, and said that deceased was very ill, suffer- ing from purging and vomiting He sent her to request Mr.Williams, surgeon, to visit the deceased, and in case he could not be found, witness desired her to give the ailing man three powders which he gave her. Each powder contained 20 grains of confection of opium, one of which was to be taken every three hours in weak brandy and water. He was informed that deceased took the powders, which were those recommended by the General Board of Health. About a quarter to one o'clock on Sunday he wrote to the relieving officer requesting him to send down Mr. Williams, thesurgeort, or some other medical man. About half-past 30n Monday afternoon he sent for Mr. Rowlands, surgeoii, but before he came down David Jones was dead. Deceased was about 50 years of age. Mr. John Lewis Williams, surgeon, de. posed that he was called to see deceased about 11 O'clock on Saturday morning. He did not go. He was sent for again on Sunday, and- went about two o'clock on Sunday afternoon. life, found deceased suffering from suppression of urine; his countenance was suffused, his tongue .-fuif<{d, hi* eyes red,-and his pulse weak. He had violent cramps in the bowels and legs. The purging and vomiting frtM- which" he had suffered had ceased. His voice was lifiskyj and he com- plained of a sinking at the pit He (witness) gave him a pill containing, half a grain of opium, one grain and a half of calomel, and two grains of ginger. He took four of those during the night. He saw deceased about 11 o'clock that morning, and found him in a state of collapse. He -believed deceased died of English cholera. If it had been Asiatic cholera he would have been livid, and would have died sooner. He thought he had seen a case of Asiatic cholera, and in that case the patient was more.livid. Mary Jones, daughter of deceased said father worked last Friday at Trebersed, with Mr. Hughes. He came home between eight and nine in the evening, and complained of having purging and vomiting. He was similarly attacked several times.during the night. The vomiting continued on Saturday, but the purging did not. He complained of cramp during that day whilst drinking something. He was very thirsty and drank 4d. worth of gin, and lOd. worth of brandy. He drank Is. worth of brandy besides, and had only eaten one penny cake during Saturday. He took the three pow- ders which the Rev. Mr. Williams gave him. We sent for Williams, the surgeon, on Saturday, but he did not come. About six in the evening my father fell into a kind of stupor and continued so during the night. He was conscious when spoken to. About nine o'clock on I Sunday morning he got up, washed himself and shaved. He went to bed again about 12 o'clock. He sent agam on Sunday (or Mr. Williams he came about half past two o'clock, and gave deceased five pills, of which de- ceased took four at intervals. -He was in a greater state of stupor after taking the pills, and was very weak and restless. We sent for Mr. Williams twice to day, and about middle day he arrived, but gave no medicine or instruction. My father died about six o'clock this evening. He had not spoken since the morning. De- ceased' wife gave similar evidence, and Mr. Rowlands, surgeon, deposed that on being sent for, he immediately attended, but found deceased dead. His opinion (founded on the evidence of the last and other witnesses, and the appearance of the body) was, that deceased died of English—not Asiatic—cholera. The jury after pa- tient consideration, returned as their verdict that de- ceased Died of English cholera,"
IBOROUGHQU ARTER SESSIONS.
IBOROUGHQU ARTER SESSIONS. The Midsummer Sessions for the County of the Bo- rough of Carmarthen, took place on Wednesday last, before J. Wilson, Esq., Recorder; the following justices being presentE. H. Stacey, and John G. Philipps, Esqrs. John Hughes, Esq., coroner, also appeared. The following gentlemen were sworn on the Grand jury Messrs. J. J. Stacey, foreman, Geo. Goode, D. Davies, Guildhall-square, J. Lewis, Union-street, David Thomas, Lammas-sireet, John Phillips, King-street, Stephen Awbrey, Thomas David, J. L. Brigstocke, R M. Davies, Isaac Davies, D. LI. Mortimer, J. Ll. Morti- mer, and J. N. Roberts. His Worship the Recorder, after the customary pre- liminaries, charged the Grand Jury as follows Gen- tlemen of the Grand Jury for the County Borough of Carmarthen: — I observe that the calendar contains rather more cases than usual, and that perhaps is a reason why I should be as brief as possible in address- ing you. Although there are five charges in the ca. lendar, yet in reading the depositions, I do not find that they contain any complication either of law or fact which would require any explanation from me. The first charge is one against Mary Jones, who is alleged to have stolen certain money from a person named John Jones. You will hear the evidence and judge whether the money was taken against the prosecutor's will, and with the intent to steal it. The second case is one in which a woman named Mary Francis, is charged with stealing a gold ring, the property of Mr. Thomas Hopwood Jenkins, jeweller. It will, in all probability, be proved that very shortly after the ring had been stolen it was found in the possession of the prisoner. I need hardly tell you that there is a rule of law which throws the burthen on the party in possession of pro- perty recently stolen to account for such possession. The indictment will probably contain a count charging the prisoner with receiving the ring, knowing it to have been stolen. If you think the latter charge the more correct one, you can find the bill on that part only. The next charge is one against James M'Cormick, for stealing certain articles of wearing apparel. You will probably not have much difficulty about this case, as it is, as I just now remarked, a presumption of law that a person in possession of stolen property is to be consi. dered the thief unlesss he can satisfactorily state how he came by it. Yon may now retire to the discharge of your, duties. The Grand Jury having retired, Mr. W. Rogers with- drew the appeal which he had lodged against the Poor Rate at the last Sessions, the subject of which he com- plained having, as he observed, been rectified. Mary Jones, aged 18, was charged with having, on the 28th of April last, stolen from one John Jones, the sum of two shillings and five pence. She pleaded Not Guilty. Considerable amusement was created in Court through- out the day by the summoning bailiff continually calling the names of the jurors with the addition of the some- what anomalous epithet gent. notwithstanding he was repeatedly reminded both by the Learned Recorder and the Clerk of the Peace, that gent." was an equi- vocal, term and one which ought not to be applied to parties in the position of jurymen. The bailiff, however, constantly recurred to the same phrase, alleging that the jurors were so designated in the jury list; but the Clerk of the Peace having explained that the word gent." was written as an abbreviation of the word gentleman," the bailiff was eventually reprimanded (or his forwardness. A jury having been sworn, Mr. W. Jones stated the case for the ptosecution, and said that the prisoner was charged with having on the 28th of April last stolen from a shoemaker named John Jones, the sum of two shillings and sixpence. The circumstances under which the theft was committed were simply these. At eight o'clock on the evening in question, the prosecutor was standing near the site of the Old Cross in company with another man, when the prisoner came up to him and asked him if he had any money in his pocket. He re- plied that he had a penny. His coat was buttoned at the time aud prisoner remarking this observed that as it was a very fine night he had better open his coat; at the same time she put her hand in his trowsers pocket. He caught hold of her hand while in his pocket, but she succeeded in withdrawing it and ran away. Just before this transaction prosecutor had in his pocket the sum of three shillings and fivepence, and after prisoner ran off he ascertained that only one shilling was left. He and P. C. Thomas Burnhill pursued prisoner, and found her in the Talbot public house. The prosecutor on seeing her immediately said, "There is the woman who robbed me." Prisoner then said, "Oh, John, John, take your money back, and let me go free." Upon this she was given into custody. These were the simple facts of the case, and he (Mr. Jones) apprehended the jury would have no difficulty in convicting the prisoner. The prosecutor and p, C. Thomas Burnhill then proved the occurrences detailed by Mr. Jones, and agreed in speaking to the very words used by prisoner when taken into charge. Prisoner, who was undefended, insisted npon it that she had said that she would rather pay five shillings than go to the station-house, and that she had not uttered the words attributed to her. The prosecutor too, was actuated by feelings of enmity to her, although they had been neighbours all their lives, and on the night in question he had enticed her to a lane in Bridge Street, from which she with great difficulty escaped. The Learned Recorder, before summing up, observed that the indictment did not lay the offence as stealing from the person, but merely as a simple larceny. Mr. W. Jones remarked that under a recent Act of Parliament the Court was enabled to amend an indict- ment. The Recorder did not think it would be exactly right to do so in this case, as the one charge rendered the prisoner Hable to imprisonment, while the other sub- jected her to transportation He then proceeded to sum op. The jury retired, and were absent FOUR hours, when they returned a verdict of Guilty. Sentenced to three calendar months' imprisonment with hard labour. Mary Francis (wife of Thomas Francis), was charged with having on the 1st of May last, stolen a gold wed- ding ring, the property of Mr. Thomas Hopwood Jenkins, jeweller, &c., Guildhall Square. There was also a count charging her with receiving the ring knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. W. Jones appeared for the prosecu- tion, and the prisoner, who pleaded not Guilty," was defended by Mr. T. Parry. Considerable difficulty was experienced in getting a jury together, and the following parties were fined 40s. each for non-attendance:—John Jones, Priory-street, Thomas Jones, maltster, Priory-street, David Howell, Cambrian Place, and David Jones, Victoria House. Thomas Humphreys, Jolly Tar, and George Jones, Lammas Street, were also fined, but having afterwards made their appearance, the penalties were kindly remit- ted by the Recorder. Mr. Thomas Humphreys, Quay- street, was excused on the ground of age. Mr. W. Jones addressed the jury for the prosecution. He said that the prosecutor was Mr. Thomas Hopwood Jenkins, a silversmith and jeweller, residing in Guildhall Square, and the prisoner was likewise an inhabitant, who was charged with stealing a gold wedding ring. It was necessary that he should observe that there was a count added to the indictment charging her with having received the ring knowing it to have been stolen, and this was added in case the evidence might not show that she was the party who actually took the ring. On the 14th of May information was given to Mr. Jenkins that it was probable his shop had been robbed, and he was desired to take particular notice of his stock. He accordingly examined it, particularly that portion which was most exposed, not being under lock and key. He counted the wedding rings and found them to be 33 in number. He also entered the marks of the rings in a book. On the morning of Tuesday, the 15th of May, Mr. Jenkins's child aged about 5 years, took the key of the shop from the bedroom and gave it to a son of the prisoner's, named Thos. Francis, who was then in Mr. Jenkins's employ as shop boy. This lad had partially opened the shop before Mr. Jenkins came down, and in doing so must have passed through the shop, and near to the spot where the rings were deposited in the window. Mr. Jenkins at once had his suspicions excited, and sent the boy into the back parlour, intending to search him after having counted the rings. He then found that there were thirty-two rings remaining, and he also ascer- tained that the boy had left the house, as he then imagined to go home to breakfast. Half an hour elapsed, and the boy not returning, Mr. Super- intendent Kentish was consulted upon the subject, and the bojjr was eventually given in charge for stealing the issing ring. The boy had been in Mr. Jenkins's eniploy since December last, Mr. Jenkins having been in business about eighteen months. When he first commenced business he had counted his wed- ding rings and found them to be ninety in number, of which he had sold forty-five, and having only thirty-two remaining in his possession, it followed that he had lost no less than 13 rings. It appeared that in the first week of the month of May, the prisoner called at the shop of Mr. Shackell, stationer and jeweller, and having purchased a half pennyworth of paper, said that she had a wedding ring to dispose of on behalf of Hannah Lethbridge, an old servant of Mr. Jenkins's, who had been married to a soldier. She said she was to have 6d. for selling it, and on being offered 5s. for it, at once accepted that sum, and left the shop without paying for the paper. She afterwards returned with a sixpence which she said she had received for selling the ring and paid the halfpenny for the paper. On the 9th of May the ring thus sold was resold by Mr. Shackell to Mr. Jonathan Lewis, of Llangadock, and he had retained it in his possession until the present charge was preferred, when it was handed over to P. S. John Davies, who had kept it ever since. With regard to Hannah Lethbridge she would be called, and would prove that she never authorised prisoner to sell a ring for her. Mr. Jenkins would also prove that he never sold a ring of the kind to prisoner, her son, or to Hannah Lethbridge, nor could any one have purchased the ring in question at his shop without his sanction or consent. In addition, Mr. R. G. Davies, Mrs. Shackell's brother-in law, would prove that prisoner called to ask Mr. Shackell not to appear against her about the ring. All these circum- stances combined—the conduct of the prisoner herself— her false statement when she sold the ring—her re- questing Mrs. Shackell not to appear against her-all showed that the jury would have no difficulty in finding her guilty of the theft alleged. At all events the onus to prove the contrary lay upon the prisoner, and in the absence of proof to that effect it would be their painful duty to return a verdict of guilty. The various witnesses were then called. Mr. Jenkins proved the loss of a ring on the loth of May and that of 12 others previously. Mr. Shackell proved the pur- chase of a ring from prisoner in the first week in May, I and that she mad e a false statement at the time of dis- posing of it. He sold the saw ring to Mr. Jonathan Lewis on the 9th of May. This Mr. Lewis corroborated and vs. John Davies produced the ring in question. Mr. Parry here objected.. and insisted that the case for the prosecution had signally felled. Here was a prisoner charged with stealing a ring from Mr. Jen- kins's on the 15th of May, when it was proved that the identical ring was sold to Mr. Shackell in the first week of May, and again sold by him on the 9th of May to Mr. Lewis. It was clear the prosecution had got the wrong ring. The Recorder observed that according to the evidence of Mr. Shackell and Mr. Lewis, the ring appeared to have been bought and sold twice before it was alleged to have been stolen from Mr. Jenkins. Even if he were to expunge their evidence as applying to another ring there would be no testimony remaining to connect the prisoner in any way with the ring produced. Unless the prosecution could adduce further evidence the case must inevitably fail. Mr. W. Jones confessed his inability to carry the case further, and The Recorder directed the Jury to acquit the pri- soner.. James Me Cormick, a discharged soldier, was charged with having on the second day of June, stolen a regatta shirt, the property of Mr. Sansom Hewson, pawnbroker, Lammas-street. Mr. Parry appeared for the prosecu- tion, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. W. Rogers. Mr. Parry stated the case for the Crown, which was briefly as follows. Mr. Hewson hung 4 shirts on a rail at the back of his shop on the morning of the 2nd of June, and the prisoner came into the shop when both Mr. and Mrs. Hewson were absent, only a little child being there. Mr. Hewson shortly after missed the shirt in question, which was very peculiar, both in its pattern and style of make. Prisoner called a second time and made enquiries respecting a coat and waistcoat which he said he wished to purchase, but his manner excited Mr. Hewson's suspicions, and information of the loss of the shirt having been given to P.C. Thomas Burnhill, that active officer apprehended the prisoner at the Lamb public house, and found him wearing the shirt under another. He said he had purchased it at the pawnbroker's, In Lammas-street, he had some money in his possession. Witnesses having proved these statements, Mr. Rogers addressed the jury for the prisoner, commenting on the slight evidence of the identification of the shirt. Ha also remarked upon the fact that Mrs. Hewson had not been called, who might perhaps shew that prisoner had bought the garment in question from her. If, however, the shirt was the property of the prosecutor, and the prisoner actually did take it, he (Mr. R.) insisted that he did so while in a state of intoxication. Having ob- tained his discharge only the previous day, and been consequently overjoyed at the circumstance, he had imbibed more than was prudent the night before and had not recovered from its effects on the morning of the of June. The Learned Recorder in summing up told the jury that intoxication was no palliation of a crime, but rather its aggravation. The jury retired, and after being absent about an hour and a half—(the prisoner meanwhile having been convicted on a second charge by another jury)—were called into Court, and discharged without delivering a verdict. Jas. M'Cormick was again placed at the bar charged with having, on the 2nd of June, stolen a silk hand- kerchief, the property of Mr. Wm. Whitney, of the Car- marthen Arms, Pendre. Mr. Parry appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Rogers for the defence. It appeared that on the afternoon of the 1st. of June, Mrs. Whitney placed the handkerchief which was the subject of the indictment in a cupboard in her husband's bed-room, and it was seen there hy a servant girl at 8 o'clock in the evening. The prisoner, (who had that day received his discharge from the 14th Regiment of Foot), applied for a night's lodgings, and slept with prosecutor. In the morning he left the house and shortly afterwards the handkerchief was missed, and found concealed in his cap upon his apprehension on the former charge. Mr. Rogers, for the defence, dwelt upon prisoner's previous good character, (which he called several pri- vates of the 14th Foot to prove) and alluded to his in- toxication at the time of the affair. The Recorder having summed up, the jury—(part of whom had been peremptorily summoned to act, and selected for that purpose from the spectators in Court) —almost immediately returned a verdict of Guilty. The same prisoner was again charged with stealing 2 handkerchiefs, the property of Mrs. Anne Jones, draper, Red-street; but on Mr. Parry observing that he con- ceived the ends of justice would be answered by the last verdict, and that he should therefore offer no evidence in this case, a verdict of acquittal was recorded. The Recorder then sentenced the prisoner to 6 calen- dar months' imprisonment, with hard labour. This terminated the business of the Sessions.
ITHE CHOLERA AND SANATORY…
I THE CHOLERA AND SANATORY PRE- CAUTIONS. During the past week the attendances at the Com- mittee meetings have been much more numerous than previously, and the exertions in the way of cleansing and removing nuisances have continued unabated. On Friday, there were present-The Mayor, Coun- cillors S. Tardrew, O. Davies,- Job Jones, and Charles Brigstocke. The medical gentlemen who attended were Dr. Bowen, E. H. Stacey, W. James, and J. Rowlands, Esqrs., Surgeons. Various orders were given for the removal and prevention of nuisances detrimental to health, and additional quantities of lime for distribution amongst the poor were ordered to be obtained. On Saturday, Councillor Geo. Davies, and W. James, Esq., Surgeon, being the only gentlemen in attendance, no business could be transacted. On Monday, there were present-Councillors George Davies, C. Brigstocke, and B. Jones, with E. H. Stacey, W. James, and J. Hughes, Esqrs., Surgeons. It was deemed highly desirable that all the gratings over the common sewers should be provided with air-traps to prevent the exhalation of noxious effluvia, but on en- quiry it was ascertained that the Board had no power to expend money for such object. They therefore con- tented themselves with adopting a resolution requesting the Commissioners of Paving and Lighting to furnish the necessary air-traps forthwith. It was said that they could be procured for about £2 each. On Tuesday, there were present-The Mayor, Coun- cillors S. Tardrew, C. Brigstocke, V. Davis, Job Jones, E. B. Jones, and G. Davies, together with Dr. Bowen, W. James, and J. Hughes, Esquires, Sur- geons. Mr. James urged upon the Board increased exertion and diligence. Considerable discussion ensued and the propriety of appointing a paid medical inspector for the town was considered but at length it was ascer- tained that the Committee had no power whatever to make the appointment. On Wednesday, there were present—Councillors G. Davies, S. Tardrew, C. Brigstocke, and J. Howell, with Drs. Bowen and Lawrence W. James, J. Hughes, and J. Rowlands, Esqrs., Surgeons. Yesterday, four gentlemen attended. Thus far we have reason to give the Committee every credit for the excellent precautionary measures they have adopted. It is justly their due and it must therefore be awarded to them. The authorities have been extremely active—and properly so too in sup- pressing various nuisances in different localities, but we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that they appear to have forgotten to "look at home." Of all the disgusting nuisances in the town, we believe none to be more in- tolerable than two which are now in existence upon pro- perty under the surveillance of the Paving and Lighting Commissioners. We allude to the sewer opposite to Mr. Robert's, in the Dark Gate, and that near to Mr. Chase's. The exhalations from these fetid sources of filth are sufficient alone to breed a pestilence. We ex- hort the Commissioners to set the example themselves ere they punish private individuals for neglecting so ob- vious a duty as the dispersion of disease-engendering malaria. We take this opportunity to add, while al- luding to the Commissioners, that we have had many complaints during the late dry weather of the invisibility of the water carts in the streets. In other towns a manifest abatement of the virulence of this disorder is perceivable. Dr. Sutherland has been deputed by the General Board of Health to visit Bristol and Cardiff, and has succeeded in promptly systematising the efforts of the inhabitants. He recommends frequent visits of inspection to the poorer localities in order to eradicate the disease in case it makes its appearance. There have been in Cardiff no less than 140 deaths from Cholera (274 persons having been attacked by that ma- lignant foe to human life), and about 30 are now under medieal treatment. The present truly gratifying state of affairs has not been attained without the most strenuous exertions of the various local authorities, and the knowledge of this should surely operate as a wholesome stimulus to the Committee in this town, who will hereafter, we trust, have the proud consciousness of feeling that—under a beneficent providence—they have been instrumental in saving Carmarthen from this seri.ous infliction.

I PEMBROKESHIRE. I MEETING OF MINISTERS AT MIDDLE HILL.-On I Tuesday and Wednesday, the 19th and 20th instant, the annual meeting of the ministers of the Independent denomination was held at Middle Hill, near Haverford- west. On Tuesday evening, the Rev. Thomas Lloyd, of Milford, preached from Gen. 42 c. and 26 v., and on Wednesday morning and afternoon, several able dis- couises were delivered by the Revs. J. Rhys Jones, of Kilsby, Northamptonshire, Evan Thomas, Rosemarket, Wm. Davies, of Fishguard, and other ministers. The attendance on both days was very numerous. We understand a further grant of £ 154 has been lately made by the Educational Committee of the Privy Council towards the erection of the Model National School now building in Haverfordwest, and with which considerable progress has lately been made. FftFEMASO rt Y.-Tlie members, or rather brethren we should say, of the Royal Welsh Lodge, held at the Victoria Hotel, Pembroke Dock, in honour of their tutelar saint, dined together this week according to long established custom, and a very pleasing reunion it proved. The worthy landlady, Mrs. Jones, furnished a sumptu- ous and ample repast of three courses of all the deli- cacies of the season. Various toasts, some excellent songs, and the performance of numerous familiar airs by the British minstrel on the harp so beguiled the passing moments that ere a thought of separating in. truded itself, it must be confessed the gloomy shades of night had in some measure beeu penetrated by the glim- mering light of morning. MILITAUT INSPBCTION.- The Marine detachment at Pembroke was inspected by Colonel Owen, Deputy General of the Corps, on Wednesday last, the result of which proved perfectly satisfactory, as well to the in- specting officer, as the respected Commandant. There were not many respectable persons present to witness the ceremony, although the day was remarkably fine. FisHiNr,Tlie smack Enchantress, Capt. Moses, has arrived at Fishguard, for the purpose of trawling; ar, immense quantity of plaice and sole have been caught already. Soles, brill, and turbot, are selling from 4d. to 6d. per lb.; in the winter months Capt. Moses intends dredging for oysters in this boy, which no doubt will be found in abundance about two miles off this place. LLECHRYD FAin.-The annual Cattle fair was held on the 26th instant, but the attendance was far from numerous, and sales extremely dull at low prices. CARDIGAN.—CHARGES OF DISORDERLY CONDUCT.— On Thursday, the 21st instant, Elizabeth James was brought before T. G. Nugent, Esq., Borough Magistrate, charged with having been drunk and disorderly on the previous evening. The constable proved that the de- fendant was very drunk and troublesome, but as she expressed contrition for the offence, and promised better behaviour, she was dismissed with a reprimand. On Monday last, Samuel Benjamin and Rowland Jenkins, were brought before R. D. Jenkins and J. G. Nugent, Esqrs., charged with being riotous, drunk and disorderly in the streets of Cardigan, about 2 o'clock in the morn- ing of Sunday last. Police Constable John Lloyd stated that he saw the defendants, who came into the town the previous Saturday, very drunk in the streets, on the Sunday morning, and making a great uproar, and as they refused to desist, he took them into custody. The defendants having both expressed their sorrow for the occurrence and promised to be more careful on their next visit to the town, were discharged on payment of a nominal fine and the expenses. NEATH.—A new church is about being erected at the Skewen, in the hamlet of Coed frank, and parish of Cadoxton, being little more than a mile distant from Neath. The designs for the building have been executed by Mr. Egbert Moxham, architect: and the contract has been taken by Mr. John Townsend, builder, Neath. TUB -ST.&TR P ITISON E its. -Smith O'Brien and the other three state prisoners will be sent to Van Diemen's Land in her Majesty's ship Swift, ordered to the Pacific j station.

BULWER LYTTON, Bart., Author of The New Timon." This grand epic of King Arthur must henceforth be ranked amongst our national masterpieces. In it we be- hold the crowning achievement of the author's life. He has accomplished that which once had its seductions for the deathless and majestic mind of Milton. He has now assumed a place amonz the kings of English poetry His subject is a superb one. It is singular that until this memorable volume appeared no great poem on the adventures of the Cymrian sovereign had been at- tempted.Sun. II. OWEN TUDOR, AN HISTORICAL ROMANCE.

The adventures which the hero meets with, and the hair-breadth escapes which he encounters, owing in a great measure to the natural impetuosity of the Welsh national character, and the commotion of the singular era in which he is engaged, are told with great spirit, and are most naturally delineated."
