I POLICE PERSECUTION AT LLANDUDNO. I To </« Editor of the North (!'afM CAt'ontC«. I Sir,—Your joHrnaI of Saturday next will most likely contain under the head Conway" a police ease, where the subscriber was fined 20a. and 10s. costs, for his horses straying from the field into the streets of Uan- dudno. A few weeks back he was fined 6s. and 10s costs for a similar offence, the pony having betted from the stable, and being unable to find it in the dtrk nigut it wae the next morning seen by the eon of Mr. Sergeant Jones, and by the pair driven home and proceeding taken against me. Now, if this Sergeant Jones did his business impartially and tarred his frieuda and foes with the same brush, I should not complain; but when, as t stated before the Magistrates and am prepared to prove, be driven, when found straying, one man's horses, Mr. Mward Owens, butcher, back into the netd and shuts the gate, while he summonses me and gets me fined, I think it is quite time a little public exposure should awaken him to a sense of his duty. In this case the fences of the <ie]d had been repaired a day or two pre- viousty at twelve o'clock at night, long after I !md my fami!y had gone to bed, the horsea were 6<en to be in the tietd and the gate closed, but afterwards they were brought to my house by Sergeant Jones with the result ttat.edabove. Mr. Sergeant Jones has his likes and dislikes, and where the evil eye is placed he follows its guidance with particutar vigour. I am under his ban, Mid as the following details of his persecution will abew, have been so for some lung time past:— First)y,—About twelve months ago a tenant of mine, a town porter named Stiller, stated publicly he would betore be siept knock holes through me." In a state of mad drunkeunfss he followed me, with his coat on prepared to hght, from Mostyn-street to my own house, threatening to annihilate me all the time. In my own yard, in the presence ot my wife and a female friend, he repeated these abusive threats, and there goaded to the act I administered such a chastisement as made him gl.td to beat a retreat. For this, under the aecus.ttion of being drunk,though as sober at the timeas the pen i am writing with, I wj.s summoned by Mr..Sergeant Jones, and atter four bearings at Con way was fined in the mitigated penalty of ts.and 24". costs; whiiethe cause of the mischief, though notoriously drunk and abusive in the public street, was not interfered with at aU. Secondly,—Two years ago one of my sons left my service at the instigation of Mr. Sergeant Jones, and went to drive a car for a friend of his. During that time he was summoned and fined at Couwayfor "ptying forhi)'H"inthestreetsofL)andudno. Part of the fine was paid at the time, and thcugh he remained in the town for many mouths afterwards no attempt was made to enforce the payment of the balance. Returning, hoH'evf'r, a few weeks back to my employment, he was pounced upon by Nir. Sergeant Jones, locked up in "durancevite," and not even allowed to communicate with his friends; and but for thekindness of aueigh- bour who saw him in chtirge of Mr. Sergeant J,,nea, nnd totdhismother, he might have remained in the "lock- u))"foralong tim8. Atthetimeoftheahoveeonvic. tion the son of John Uavies, Gatehouse (and hereby hangs the comparison), was fined for the like ofFencc, and paid no part of it. Subaequentty he was pounced upon by Mr. Sergeant Jones and incarcerated In the Sergeant's kitchen, but not paying the money he was let at hberty. and is still at liberty and the tine unpaid. Such is police justice at L!andudno. Thesonofa "squatter" is pounced upon and his father forced to pay a fine inflicted when out of his employment and in oouo.sition to his wishes: but the son of a native, thoueh et otrseut free.

NEWS OF THE WEEK. The Court remains at Osborne. Prince Lei- ningen arrived there on Saturday, and remained there -n a visit to the Queen. Mr. Gladstone ar- rived on Monday, and had the honour of dining with her Majesty. Prince Alfred, we team, is now at Berlin, on a visit to the Crown Prince of Prussia. His Royal Highness leavea on Monday. Parliament meets on Tuesday. The address in the Lords, in reply to the Queen's Speech, will be moved by the Duke of Cleveland, and seconded by the Earl of Charlemont. In the Commons it will be moved by Sir Hedworth William-ton, M.P. fc¡r North Durham, and seconded by Mr. Han- hury Tracey, M.P. for the Montgomeryshire Boroughs. Mr. Masse", M.P., and Chairman of the Com- mittee of Ways and Means, is appointed finan- cial Minister for India, t'ire Sir C. Trevolyan, who returns home on account of iil health. The number of railway accidents that have re- cently occurred, have attracted the attention of her Majesty, who has addressed a circular to the Directors of the more important lines, urging the necessity of greater caution taken. It is not for herself, her Mfjesty says, that she interferes, as she knows that extra precautions arc always taken whenever she travels but she requires that the same care should be extended to her family, the members of her household, and the public gene- ra.lty. A sad accident happened in Horseferry Street, Westminster, on the evening of the 26th u!t. The Roman Catholic Chapel there is in debt, and the Priests got up a lottery to raise money to reduce it. The prizns were to be distributed that night, and a great many persons were collected in the school- room. During the proceedings the Scoring gave way, and many men, women, and children, were injured. Between 20 and 30 were taken to the Westminster Hospital, where the schoolmistress died the next day. On Monday night the Surrey Theatre, BIack- friar's Road, Southwa.rk, was destroyed by tire. It was discovered in the roof ju-!t before the close of the performance. Providential!) the audience al) got out uninjured, except a few bruises, but all in the theatre was destroyed. The performers lost dresses and properties', and Messrs. Shepherd and Andersnn, the lessees and managers, lose about JE10,000. After an unusual delay, and many rumours, Mr. O'Hagan, the Irish Attorney-General, was, on the 24th 0 utt., appointed to succeed the late Mr. Justice Ball. Mr. Lawson, the Solicitor-General, succeeds Mr. O'Hagan !M Attorney-General; Mr. Sergeant Sullivan is tho new Solicitor-General Sir CoIman O'Loghlin, M. P., takes the Sergeant's coif, and Mr. Chailes Barry, Q.C., takes his place as law-adviser to the government. The last-named gentleman is a Protestant, but all the others are Roman Catholics. Letters from Odess!), received at Trieste, on Friday, state that 120,000 Russians are concen- trated between the Dnieper and Dniester, and that Russian agents are enlisting sailors in tho Greek Archipelago. The King of Prussia, on the 22th ult., replied to the address from the Upper House, with which he in mud) gratitied. His Majesty says, his speech from the throno made advances to the rep- resentatives, in order that they shou!d also make advances to him. He is conscientiously striving to do everything compatible with the welfare of the country, a,ld trusts that the misundoratand- i!lg whiell e'xists will soon disappear. Ihore ap- pears to be no approach to an underataftdiug between the Government and the Deputies. The organization of the army, which the King insists upon retaining, uncontrolled, in his own hands, is tho great point of dinereuee. On the 26th ult. a deputation of thoinhabt- tn.nts of Trieste imd a.r) interview with the Gover- nor on the subject of the I:tte dismissal of Muni- cip.tt Council. The Governor expressed his con- viction that the majority of the membera were !oya.I, a.nd his be)icf that a.t the approaching eh.'c- tion members host.iia to the Gcvorument would be exduded. I,)-ee Pras, of the 27th ult., states, that a decree, convoking the Hun"-ari!m Diet, will be issued on the 13th of ApriJ, and that the Diet wiit meet on the 15th of M!).v. In the Uniehmth there is a din'erence be- tween the finance committee or'the Lower House and the Government. Theh'.tteriswihingto eonseut to reduction. in the expenditure, but demand that they shaU waive the right to dHti-i- bute the funds voted indiscriminatoty amongst the diITerollt bl..tnche of the public service, and that the bl\l¡et for 18S(!sha)t be voted during thepreaeutsession. 011 the 27th the ctJ1l1mÎLtee refused to accHpt these conditions, unlesii the a:nount of the reductiona was pointed out. It has been rumoured that the French Govern- ment WM about to send 500 Spahis to Turns. D)e C(!Xt<t!'h'M!M'< contradicts the report, and says, that the cairn and disinterested attitude of France during the disturbances in that country ought to prevent credence being given to unfounded rumours circulated to excite disquietude. M. Thouveual, a relation of the former Minister of Foreign ASaiM, died on Sunday. It was, at first, ro)<ortm) and believed that it was the ex-minister himself. The French news is still devoid of in- terest, except as relates to the Encyclical. The episcopal protests against the government policy are about 40 in number. It is expected that they will be made the subject of all Imperial Manifesto. Letters received at Marseilles, from Rome, on the 28th ult., state, that theCountde Lartiges, the French Ambassador at the Vatican, had pre- sented a note to Cardinal Antonelli. expressing deep regret that the Pope was not willing to treat wit)) Italy, and adding, that Franc?, after having exhausted every means of concilliation, now de- clined to prolong the negotiations, and won't execute the conventions. The Co"t;t!loti{ln'IP' A' Tuesday, says that no auch letter exi ts.—On Monday, the newly appointed Spanish minister, Sfnor Pachero, presented his credential tu LIL, Pope. On the evenings of the 23rd and 24th ult., de- monstrations were made at Turin in honour of certain deputies and journalists of the reactionary party. No disturbance took place. The Turin papers of Friday, the 27th ult., state that the military tribunals have determined upon proceed- ing against fifty of the soldiers who were on duty during the distu'bances of September—twent' being charged with having exceeded the means of legal defence, and the others with having used their arms unnecessarily.—On the 28th the Syndic issued a manifesto, urging the people to obey the laws. There was, however, another demonstration before the royal palace on Monday evening, when several arrests took place. The Spanish minister of the colonies estimate" the expense of the St. Domingo war at 200,000,000 of reals, and says it has occasioned a deficit of 100,000,000 in the revenue of Cuba. In the Senate on the 26th ult., Marshall O'Donnell said, the evacuation of that island was an accomplished fact; but added, if he had oomma..ided the troops there he would have put down the rebellion in three months. On Monday, the Senate adopted the address to the throne by 102 to 58 votes. There had been rumours at Paris of a new com- mercial treaty being negociated between Spain and France the Madrid Epoca of the 30th contra- dicts them. Advices from Lisbon of the 23rd ult. state that the Council of State had directed that the Bishops should not publish the Pope's Encyclical, except that part which relates to the Jubilee. The winter has been one of the most severe on record in Portugal. The people of Lisbon complain of the increase of rents and taxes the prices of meat have also advanced 30 per cant. On the 26th ult., the address of the Senate of the Danubian Principalities was presented to Prince Couza, whose reply was received with enthusiasm.—The deputies were on that day discussing the bill on the organization of the superior clergy. The Cape mail has arrived, with dates from Cape Town to the 23rd day of December. At that date affairs on the frontier were pcaceaMe, and it was believed no trouble need be anticipated from the free states. Mosbeth had announced his intention of abiding by the decision of the Governor, with respect to the boundary of his territory, and had given orders to evacuate the disputed lands. The Basutos were retiring, and the president of the free states had cone to Win- burg, with a considerable force of burghers but rather as a corps of observation than with hostile intentions. The West India mail has arrived, with ad vices from the 9th to the 14th of January. There is no political news of interest from any of the islands but the accounts of the crops is very favourable. There is news from Valparaiso to the 14tl), and from Callao to the 28th of December. It only relates to the Spanish-Peruvian question. The Peruvian admiral had informed the Govern- ment, that, after the destruction of the Spanish admiral's fthip, their force was unable to cope with the enemy and the Spaniards had been subse- quently reinforcHd.—A Peruvian envoy had waited upon the Spanish admiral, to teli him the quarrel would be made a South American one, informa- tion which that ofnoer received very coolly." The Etiia brought advices from New York to the 14th Jan., and thero are subsequent news up to the 17th. The Federal Senate had, the previous day, passed a resolution to give twelve months' notice of the terminatiou of the reciprocity treaty with Canada, which the House of Representatives adopted on the 16th, and the President has ap- proved of it. The notice to England, terminating the treaty for limiting the force on the Jakes, it also confirmed by both houses. It was reported at New York that the Committee of Ways and Means, of the House of Representatives, disap- proved ot Mr. Fessenden's plan for raising 200, 000,000 dollars that minister bad been elected senator for Maine.—There had been no engage- ments between the armies since the last arrivals. Sherman was moving it was reported to the south, intending to take Charleston in thf; rear, support- ed bv Admiral Farragut's fleet in the bar, iu front. In other quarters it was asserted that lie was going to Brauohville. Hood was fortifying Corinth, M<! repairing the Mobile and Ohio railroad. His losses at Nashville were oNciaUy reported to be a few men, and 50 guns. General Thomas had moved towards Eastport. where supplies were concentrated.—General Butler lias published a defence of his conduct at Wilmington. He says the real cause of the disaster was the want of timely cd-opera.tion on the part of Admiral Porter; .tnd that he has been sacrificed because he would not lead his men to butchery. A second expedi- tion failed against Wilmington on the 8th u)t. and ou the 1 :;th Fort Fisher was captured, b\ the united assault of troops and Porter's gunboats the garrison of 2,600 men, and 72 guns being captured. The Federal loss was heavy. Port Wilmington is said to benoweSeetuaHyMockaded. It w.M lumourcd that an important peace anci uniou movement, traded by the governor, was takiusptace in Georgia. There were other rumours of peace negoeiations between North and South but as the former makes "union," and the hotter "independence" indispensable, there was no nrosnect of terms being come to. Resolutions in favour of peaca have been rejected by the House of Representatives, and by the Virginia House of De]e"'ates.—The Missouri State Convention had ,Ki<))'?cd -tu or(tin!M)ce for the iinniediate :md un- coil (I ii iit :).bo)ition of silvery.

The news from Indi, Md Chtn.t had been anticipated, or neM]y so the inte1ligenee subsequent to that previously receivc,l is vo'd of interest.—From Yokohama we have the det!ti).s of the murder of M"jor George W.Uter tl;Ll(lNviii, alitt Lie'.tt. Robert Nieliolas Bird, of the 2nd 1):ttt:ilioll of Her Majesty's 20th regiment- not the 23rd, a.s stated by the telegra.m. which nrst announced the me]<meho)y event.

Up to the ]:Mt Mcounts no clue whatever h:td been obtained to the as"a"in. There n.re advices from Suez to the 16th of Jan. They stated that Captain Trisautf w<t.s about to start on a mission to the Imaum of Muscat, whose brother wM said. to be desirous of CRding X:tn Zcvar to England.

That report remained neither coutu-med nor contr¡\(licted, till the 21st of last month, when we "'ere to)d, in a semi-officii! paper, tit.1t it was un- fuunded. Since' then, letters )Mvo been received from Coburg, which statf-, that, in May, Queeu Victoria, King Leopold of Belgium, and all the royal family of EngtMd, will amye .t that city; and that then the b.. trothal is to take place.-If tbia i. corr.ct, w. shall Mo. be made tware of the fMt. Charles Alexander, the present Grand D like of cSaxe- Weimer. is only 46 years of age, being bom on the 24th of June 1818. He married the Princess Sopbte, of th. Nctherlaud.; Md their eldest child and on)y son,- Prince Ctiarles Augustus, was bom on the 31st of Ju!y, 1814: be is, therefore, nearly two years cMer than the Pnucess Helena. who first MW the light' the 25th \tav, 1S16.

One of the Duke of Ctmbridgea hM left to fn for the continent, to escott he- .) .-at highneM ho.M. She will take up her residence, f't' the present, in the apartments of the DucheM of Ct.f&bndge, in the AmbaMtdora' Court, St. jMnM'e P&\9'e. Mr. Juatioe Williams hM resigned hi9 Mat on tht Bench of the Court of Comn;m) Pleas. He bad selected the Norfolk Circuit; but f<ad he was inadequate to undertake the duties; MC. a has, therefore, Mnt in hi< resignation. Viaconnt Amberley, t..rd RuMeU's <on, hM "comt out" as a Heformer. He made a rather viofent reform speech at Leeds on 1 ueeday; and it ia understood he i) to be the second Lib:ra[ candidate for the representation of that borough. Two [nduatriat Ethibitions" were opened in the metropolis yesterday the South London," at the Lambeth Bathe, Westminster Road; and the Opert. tive Coachmaker))," at the Coach maker'sHaU, Noble- etreet, Foster-lane, Cheapaide. There are 630 exhibitor* at the former; not so many in the tatter, but the trade i) well represented. The exhibitor* at Lambeth com- prise workman of almost all c!astes; and there is a great variety of objects in the specimens of art and ingenuity they have contributed. The Coaehmakers' display M chicSy connected with their own trade. At both, the skit) and industry of the workmen i< most ably di'ptay- ed and we may take pride at this proof of the tatenht of our countrymen. 1 he Biehop of Winchester presided, and opened the Lambeth Exhibition. The Marquis of Lantdowne delivered the Inaugural AddreM at the Coaehmakers. The Vienna paper* of yesterday, publish an anatymt of the Prussian repJy to the last note of Austria on the Duchies. Frusta )ay* great stress upon its wish to come to an understanding with Austria; and intends to wait for the opinion of the legal adviaert of the Crown, before adopting any decision concerning the interests of the Duchies and the suceeMion ques- tion. At Berlin, it was announced, yesterday, that the bill regu)atiug the strength of the army, in time of peace, And the length of mititary service, has been submitted to the King, by the ministry, aud approved. Next week it it to be brought forward in the Chamber of Deputies. This it an unexpected concession on the part of the King; who, had professed, that he would not "compromMe" his rights on the military question. The French papers arestiH taken up with the F.ncy- chcat Letter, which, as appears from those journals and fetters from Rome, has created quite a division amongst the RomM C:\thoiies themseivM. In France, the Ency- c!ieal and the Kpiseopat tetters will soon come before the Council. Notwithstanding the denial of the Con- stitutiolinel, it is betieved in Paris, that a note hat been sent to the Vatican on this question. There is important news from Mexico this week. When at Rome, the Emperor Maximijian opened nego- ciations with the Pope on the reform in the Empire, which would involve arrangements with respect to Church property; and he expected the Nuncio would be property instructed and authorised on the subject. But to the great surprise of the Emperor, that func- tionary dec)ared he had no instructions. The Emperor, therefore, on the 27tb of December, iteued a decree, es- tablishing religious toleration, and the nationa]isation of Church property. It was said that the Nuncio and the Archbishop would leave Mexico. The conduct of the EmpMorhad excited great, popular enthusiasm. The Canadian Parliament WM opened at Quebec on the 19th utt. The Govcrnor.GeneraI announced thttt a ');)! would be presented to arm the executive with further powers to deal with political refugees who abused the right of asyl'tm and he epoke hopefully of the confederation scheme. An arrival from New York brings intelligence to the 20th ult. It is still unfavourable to the Confederate*. The Federals had captured the Pocotaligo Bridge, on the Charleston and; Savannah Railway; the Confede- rates baling retired, to Asheroo. also on the railway, where it was expetted they wou)d make a stand.—The Federal were also prosecuting their designs on Wilming- ton; which if not captured would be effectuaJly hInck- ,\ded.The Confederate General Hardee, with 20,uJO men, was reported to be in a good position, 20 miles above H'n'd'*e\i)lf, on the SityPiiiiili river.—The Fe(lel".Il monitor h.td been destroyed by torpedoes off Charleston.— T)e Richmond papers are very severe on I'reiiidtnt Uavis charging many of the ill..) that had be. f.tUen the Confederates to his mismanagement.—The Tennessee Sbtte Convention had pag4ed a reao)utimi .tloUsbing slavery.—It was reported that a Federal squadron, under Admiral Gotdsborough, would be sent to Europe.
