MAJORITY OF THE HEIR OF RHUG.…
MAJORITY OF THE HEIR OF RHUG. I The following is a fuller report of the above happy event than we were enabled to give last week :— On Welnesd 'y week, Corweu and the neighbouring vil- lages were must gaily decorated, and the inhabitants all dressed in holiday attire, were all astir, auxious to do honour to the Hon. C, H. Wynne, second son of Lord Newborough, and the heir to the vast estates of the late Sir Hubert Vaugkan, of Rbug, 011 the attainment of his majority. Corwen, Llansanttlraid, Cynwyd, Gwyddel- wern, Druid, and other places seemed to vie with each other at to which should do the greatest honour to this young gentleman. Though the weather was most unpro. pitious, heavy showers of rain continuing all the day, it did not deter the assemblage of large crowds of both sexes, young and old, at the various festive centres, The most important centre was Corweu, which was gi\Îly decorated in all directions, begiuuing with a neai hag which floated between the foliage of trees -the Unber and coal yard of Messrs Roberts and Evaus, on the way towards Corwen bridge, along the road to which, ac- cording to first arrangements, it was intended that the procession should mett the young nobleman and the decorations continued all along the town, comprising banners and flags of various hues, with triumphal arches -one spauuiug the street from the office of Mr 0. Davies Hughes to the Crown Inn on the opposite side, and another a little beyond the Owen Glyndwr Hotel; and almost every house in the frout of the street exhibited evergreens aud bunting, bearing iusciiptious in Welsh and English, appropriate to the event. The family motto, Asgre lan, dyogel ei pheroheu" (a cleau heart is safety to its owner), was conspicuous among the inscrip- tions with the two lines of poetry, expressing in a few words following an that the heart of mau could de- sire Bywyd Hawn a byd lion, Gwyneb Duw a gweu Jyuion." As already intimated the original programme was not followed, owing to a circumstance which, in addition to the bad weather, tended much to east gloom upon the whole proceeeings. The young heir of Rhug. whom it was intended to do honour to, had been prevented from being present, having been seized with illness on his travels to the Holy Laud. Whilst at Cairo he had been attacked by a sun stroke, and was at the time of the festivities laid up in Jerusalem. A procession, however, was formed about half-past twelve, which, being led by the liuthiu Volunteer Band, consisted of a gaily-dressed waggon drawn by two greys, with a huge fat ox in, with two jolly butchers on each side dressed in a white coat and broad-rimmed straw hats, with the committee and other inhabitants walking four abreast. The procession met the one o'clock train, out of a middle carriage of which came Sir Watkin, W. H. M. Uynue, Esq., M P., and H. J. L1. Price, Esq., of Khiwlas, High Sheriff of Merionethshire. The party was loudly cheered by the crowd at the station, aud they joiued the procession, which halted at the Glyndwr Hotel, when three hearty cheers were given for the young heir and Sir Watkiu. Mr Wagstaff then said that it had been considered desirable to present the address, which had been decided upon, at the hotel instead of at the luncheon, where it would not be audible to most. He regretted the absence of Mr Thomas Wynne, the elder brother, and on behalf of the committee he had great pleasure in presenting the followiug address to Sir W. W. Wynne, as senior trustee ot the Khug estates :— TO TilE HON. C.. W. WYNN, OF ltHUG, We, the undersigned, beg to offer you this day our most sincere And hearty congratulations upon the attainment of your majority, aud the earnest prayer that the same good Providence which has hitherto protected you may continue to watch over you, and pour upou you his tichest blessings. We trust that at no distant period we may have you a resident landlord amongst us, and that you will discharge the duties of your position to the glory of God and the welfare of your fel ow-creatures. Sigued by W Wagstaff, elktiriiian Rev. W. Richards, Cor- wen %N' Jones, Crossby square, London 0 Jones, Carnarvon; J. R. Walker, surgeon D K. Jones, surgeon K. W Attree, Oolottiendy Thomas Jones, Plas; U, D Hughes, solicitor; E. James, J. Moltby, K. Evans, Jno. Jones, D. Roberts, auctioneer O. Lloyd. W. Jones, chemist; T. Jones, Feathers Inn, treasurer; W. B. C. Jones, hon. sec. In acknowledging the address Sir Watkin, on behalf of the Hon. C. H. Wynne, thanked them for Ithe kind expressions which it contained. The young heir of Khug had, like many in his position, taken the example of the Prince of Waled-—visited the birth-place of our Saviour, and other scenes in the Holy Land, with a view by foreign travels to befit himself for the high position which he was to occupy. He regretted the absence of his co-trustee, Mr W. K. Wyuue, of Peniarth, and again thanked them for the kind expressions towards the young heir of Khug. (Loud cheers.) The address was elegantly illumiuated on vellum, the ,work in atisliii) reflecting the highest possible credit upon the skill aud taste of Mr W. Grant, surveyor, who had written it. DINNER AT TIn; FEATHKRS INS. I At one o'clock e large number of tenantry and others i sat down to a substantial dinner at the Feathers 1 ) a. The chair was occupied by Mr W. R. M. Wynne, M | tndthevice-ehiurbyMrR.J.H.Price. The toast of the evening was duly honoured, coupled with the name of Mr J useph J uues, the oldest teuaut iu the room, who, in replying, hoped the young heir would soon reside amongst them.-The Chairman addressed the company in Welsh, and was loudly cheered. He said that though the object of the festivities had been unfortunately pre- vented from being with them, they could join together in drinking his very good health. (Loud cheers.) Sir Watkin was also present in the room, and in ac, knowledging his toast expressed a hope the day was not far distant when their own landlord would reside amongst them. (Cheers.) Several other toasts were honoured by the company. THE LUNCUEON, At two o'clock a large company sat down in a tent erected by Mr Moltby in front of the Owen Giyndwr Hotel, who bad placed upon the table in elegant style a cold collation, accompanied with choice wines. The tent, in common with all others, was not waterproof, topcoats and umbrellas becoming essential to the guests' comforts, and the pioceediugs being somewhat hurried in consequence. The company was graced by a num- ber of ladies resident in Corwen and the neighbourhood, a somewhat new feature in public banquets, and which Sir Watkin in the course of the afternoon made a happy allusion to, stating that it was one of the "improve- ments of our modern civilisation." Amongst those who had taken tickets for the luncheon, most of them being present, were—Hon. C H,Wynne, Sir W \V Wynne, Bart., M.P., Mr W R M Wynne, M.P., Mr W E Wynne, Peniarth the Rev, H Burton, Atchim, Salop Mr R J Ll. Price, high sheriff of Merioneth; Mr Owen Jones, sen., agtiit of lthug Mr Owen Joues, jun., Air T Pic- ton Jones Rev E Tholwall, Rilthiii Sir J Vaughan, Nannau; Mr T Main waring, M.P. Mr 11 J Ellis, Kanney, Gwynfryu Mr W Wagstaff, Rhug; Rev IV Richardson, rector Mr Richard Roberts, Ty-issa Mr Walter Jones Mr James Moltby; Dr It Jones; Mr E James; Dr J R Walker; Mr 0 l) Hughes, solicitor; Mr W Jones, chemist; Mr Hugh Davies; Mr Johu Evans; Mr Thomas Jones; Mr J Jones, London House: Mr Robert Evans,draper; Mr Thomas Jones, Plas; Mr Owen Lewis, London Mr Simon Williams; Tyuddol Mr T Jones Parry, North and South Wales Bank, &c., &c Among the ladies present we observed Mrs Lloyd, Plas- isaa, Mrs W B C Jones and the Misses Jones, Mrs 0 D Hughes, Miss Oliver, Mrs Bucktou, Mrs Walker, Mrs Farren, Miss Thornes, Oswestry Mrs W illiarns, Bala Miss Lewis, Corweu Mrs Joues, Meyrick House, Dol- gt)Uey Miss Jones, ditto Mrs Robinson, Corwen Mrs D Roberts, Tyny Cefn Mrs Williams, Tynddol; Mrs Preegrave, Rhug; Mrs Williams, Fronhyfryd; Alrs Ellis, Bala; Mrs Jones, Corwen, &c. W. Wagstaff, Esq., of Rhug Mansion, chairman of the committee, prosided, supported on his right by Sir W jitkiu and the ltev, Mr Burton, of Atcham, Salop, two of the trustees, and on his left by the Rev. Mr Richard- son, and the Rev. Mr Appleton. The Chairman gave the usual loyal toasts. In giving the Prince of Wales, he referred to his visit at Carnar- von, and to the letter in the Times of Tuesday, casting a doubt upon the historic account of the chamber which is usually shown in Carnarvon Castle as the birth place of the first Prince of Wales. He also said that some per- sons went so far as to deny that the first prince was born in Carnarvon Castle. In proposing the Bishop and Clergy, the Chairman alluded to the kindness of the bishop of that diocese in his attendance at the opening of the National Schools on the previous week. The toast was coupled with the ns me of the Rev. Mr Richardson, rector of Corwen. The Rev. W. Richardson, in responding, said,-ladies and gentlemen, I beg to thank you very sincerely for the kind manner in which you have been pleased to drink the health of the bishop and clergy. As regards the Bishop of St. Asaph, he is conspicuous on the bench, as well for the energy and activity with which he discharges the duties of his office, as for the piety, liber- ality, and learning which adorn his mitre. Of his energy and his unwearied efforts to do good, we have lately had an instance here, when his lordship came over expressly to take part in the opening of our new National Schools. Then as regards the clergy they live amongst you, and their lives and their works are known to you. It is not for me to speak their praises -but this I may confidently say that there is no class of men more anxious than they are to do their duty. and I may also be permitted to say that there never was a time when the clergy of the Church of England as a body worked more zealously than at pre- sent, and when I say this, 1 do not forget the debt that is due to other denominations. I have lived long enough to see and know that there is room enough for us all, and a vast work to be done by all of us. Speak- ing personally for myself I have an especial pleasure in 4ving here to-day. We are to-day called upon to rejoice t together, and a happy day I feel it i., or it ought to be to each one of us. We are to-day met to honour and to show our KOod will to t:w young heir—the owner of a large estate, knowing full well that his influence for good or evil will be immense—aud we bid him God speed. As rector of this parish, by far the greatest portion of which belongs to Mr Wynn, and as one whose privilege it was to spend the first five years of my ministerial life in connection with the late owners of the Rluig estate-and whose friendship I enjoyed to the last, it may readily be supposed that I must feel a peculiar interest in his welfare and future career. Both the late owners and the present occupier (Mr Wagstatt) have set him a noble example, aud I doubt not that he will follow it. I doubt it not because I know from his own lips that he is fully aware that property has its re- sponsibilities as well as its privileges, and because I know how anxious he has been to see at once the com- meucement of the restoration of our old parish church. And this is why we rejoice so heartily to-day. This is why we are so auxious to give him a hearty welcome whenever he comes among us, believing as we do that we shall have in him a landlord who will feel an inte- rest in the temporal and spiritual concerns of his ten- nuts and those around him, and so from our hearts we wish him God speed, long life, and every blessing. Gentlemen, I thank you again for your kindness in drinking the health of the bishop aud clergy. The Army, navy, militia, yeomanry, and volunteers," was responded to by Capt. W. 11. M. Wynne. In proposing the toast of the day, the chairman ob- served that the absence of the object of the toast was something like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet omitted, and it was a matter of regret that the Hon. C. H. Wynne was not personally present to receive their congratula- tions on the auspicious event which had called then to- gether, but they might also be congratulated by him, which no doubt would have been most happily presen- ted could he have possibly responded to their invitation to be with them. But he was anxious to be present to watch the interesting explorations then going on at Jerusalem, and to take part in them. All things con- sidered, they were not perhaps entitled to blame the Hon. Mr Wynne. It was most unfortunate that the health of th.) one whom they had met to propose and houour was himself indisposed amongst the beauties of that beautiful country—Palestine. He (the chairman) hoped they should have the happiness of meeting him on future occasions to congratulate him, yet they would have felt a great pleasure could they have presented him with that beautiful address; though it had been read in front of the hotel, he would again read to the company. After reading the address the chairman wished the Hon. Mr Wynne long life and happiness, and many returns of the auspicious day. (Loud applause.) Before sitting down he desired to meutiou the impossibility of the Hon. Thomas John Wynne being present with them, as his brother's representative, who was detained through illness in London. He read a letter from him, express- ing that nothing would have given him more pleasure than to have been present to attend the demonstrations in honour of his brother, believing that such were cal- culated to infuse aud encourage good feelings between landlord and tenants. But his medical advisers had told him it would be impossible for him to leave Lon. don before the middle of May. He heartily thanked them for their good wishes towards his brother. The toast was received with three times three and warm ap- plause.. The Chairman then in appropriate terms gave tue health of the trugtees-Sir W. W. Wynne, the Rev. Mr Buit(iti, and Mr Wynne, of Peniarth, regretting that the latter only was absent through delicate health. As trustees, he (the chairman) was in a position to say they had been most careful guardians of the interests of the Hon. Air Wynne. They had managed the Rhug estates in a manner creditable to themselves and if the tenants did not get all they desired, it was solely done from an anxious desire, not of obtaining popularity, but to protect the interests of the young heir. He then proposed the health of the trustees, coupling the names of Sir Watkin and the Rev. Mr Burton. Years-ago people were not satisfied with exclaiming Sir Watkin for ever," aud changed the expression of Honour to Mr Watkin for ever and three days." (Cheers and laughter.) The toast was received with great applause. Sir Watkin responded and said Gentlemen-he beg- ged their pardon, he should have said ladies and gentle- men, for he had that day observed one of the improve- ments of modern civilization in the attendance of ladies at that public Itincheoi. (Cheers.) The trustees felt glad to give up that day their charge to one who was eminently worthy to receive it. He had known him ever since they had been put into the position of trus- tees, and he never saw anyone more kind-hearted and anxious to do good to all around. (Applause.) They had known the late Colonel Vaughan and his nephew, and in giving up the trust the trustees entertained the hope that the young heir would keep up and enjoy the same good opinion of the tenantry as they did. The llev. H. Burton would be glad to give an account of his stewardship. Tne Rev. Mr Burton also acknowledged the toast, and Raid he held in his hand a letter from the Hon. C. H. Wynne,.dated "Mediterranean Hotel, Jerusalem," giving an account of his observations in the Holy Land. It appeared that whilst travelling in Egypt he had been struck down by the sun, but by the good provideuce of God he hoped soon to recover. He had arranged to be at the scene of the Saviour's sufferings at Easter, but the letter, though very interesting, was too long to read to the company. In reference to the toast, he had only to say that as a trustee he had endeavoured conscienti- ously to do his part. (Cheers.) Sir Watkin, in proposing the health of Mr Wagstaff, observed that though the landlord ot the Rhug estate did not reside amongst them, they had been most for- tunate in having Mr Wagstaff to reside in Wales—a gentleman who greatly benetited the poor and who was respected by all. (Cheers.) Mr Wagstaff responded, and afterwards proposed The High Sheriff, who suitably responded. In proposing the ember for the County, the Chair- man observed that though he did not happen to be on the same side as Mr Wynne in politics, that did not de" stroy the good feeling of friendship between them. Mr Wynne acknowledged the compliment and reiter- ated the sentimeuts. The health of Mr Owen Jones, the agent of Rhug, was next given, and responded to by Mr Owen Jones, junior. Mr Watkin proposed the Committee, Mr W. B. C. Jones humorously responding. Mr W. R. M. Wynne proposed the ladies, to which Mr Thus Jones, Plas, responded. The company then adjourned. TREATS TO SCHOOLS, &C. During the day, bread, beef, and tea were distributed among the poor of the town, 246 tickets having been issued, each holder beiug entitled to receive about 31b of beef, a loaf of bread, and a packet of tea. The chil- dren of the National Schools met in their new rooms at half-past three o'clock, to partake of tea and currant bread, prepared by Mr William Humphreys, which did him great credit. The rooms were nicely decorated with evergreens and suitable mottoes to the Hon. C. H. Wynn. The children, after singing a few sweet songs, were called upon by their master to give three cheers to the Hon. Mr. Wynne, Mrs and Miss Wagstaff, of Rhug, Sir Watkiu Williams Wynne (who was'present), &c., &e. The children were presented by the Corwen committee with a cup each, inscribed as follows: The Hon. C. If. Wynne, lthug, April 22nd, 1868," which were distri- by Mrs and Miss Wagstaff, together with an orange in each. The following ladies waited upon the young guests (170 in number) :—Mrs and Miss Wagstaff, Mrs and Miss Dawson, Miss Owens, Mrs Jones, schools; Miss Bvans, draper; Mrs Williams, Fron Hyfryd, Mrs uuugh, Glyndwr Terrace Miss Emma Lewis, &c., &c. A BALL AND FIREWORKS. ) A grand ball took place in the tent in the evening, which though the night was unfavourable was well at- tended, the Ruthin Volunteer Band supplying the music. The town was illuminated in the evening. In front of the Glyndwr Hotel the initials of the Hon. Mr Wynne—"C.H.W.—were lit up withigag, having an imposing effect. A grand display of fireworks at Cor- wen, Gwyddelwern, add Cynwyd took place, supplied by the eminent manufacturer, Mr Cartwright, of Ru- thin. Climbing a greasy pole, and other rural sports, also took place.

MR GLADSTONE TO BE OPPOSED.-On Saturday a meeting of the leading Conservatives of the south- ern division of Lancashire took place at the Legh Arms Hotel, Newton-le-Willows, for the purpose of taking into consideration what action should be taken by the party in the event of a dissolution of the present Parlia- ment, as well as at the next election. Lieut-Colonel J. Ireland Blackburue was called to the chair. The atten- dance was very influential, and comprised deputations from Manchester and Liverpool, aud every polling district in the division was represented. The prospects of the patty were discussed, and a resolution was passed that in the event of Mr William E. Gladstone offering himself for re-election for that division of the county he should be strenuously opposed. Great unanimity pervaded the meeting, and several of the speakers expressed them. selves as sanguine that at the present time a contest would result in the three seats being secured by the Conservative party, many of the electors who supported Mr Gladstone at the last election having avowed their determination to vote against him at any future election. A subscription was entered into, and the gentlemen present put down their names for considerable sums. It was arranged that a large gathering of the party should be held at Newton on an early day.

LLANERCarMKDD. ANGLESEY BOARD OF GUARDIANS. I The first meeting of the newly-elected Guardians of this Union for the ensuing year, was held on Wednesday last, April 29th, at the Hull's Head Inn, Llanercby- rnedd. Present—E Richards, Esq,, Ynys Rev. James Morris, Llanallgo Rev. Hugh Oweu, Llanerchymedd; Messss Elias Jones, Hugh William Owen, Hugh Roberts, iiinr. John Parry, Amlwch Thomas Jones, Bodewryd Owen Owens, Coedana, (Llanerchymedd Mill); William Roberts, Gwiedog; Richard Pierce, Llanbabo; Wil- liam Roberts, Owen Jones, Llanbadrig; Hugh Thomas, Llaubedrgoch; Edward Morris William Williams, ad I'howas Owen, Llaueilian William Jones, Llaneugrad Thomas Owen, Llanfairmathafarneithaf; Richard Hughes, Llaufair- yughoruwy Richard Joues, Llanfechell; William Owen, i.taufih;mge)-tre'r-beirdd illiam Thomas, LlanfHewyn; Richard Williams, Moses Williams, Llangefni; Richard Williams, Llangwyllog; John Griffith, Llanrhwydrys Joseph Jones, Llauweuliwyfo Richard Hughes, Llech- gynfarwydd; Thomas Edwards, Peurhoslligwy Hugh Evans, Rhodogeidio Owen Pritchard, Tregaian; Rev. Edward Herbert, and Henry Webster, Esqr. ex-officio. The first business transacted at this meeting was the election of the officers of the board for the ensuing year. Election of Chairman—The Rev. Hugh Owen rose and said that they met this time under somewhat differ. ent circumstances to former years, as they always used to have their late lamented chairman, Mr Williams, with them, but now they met without him, aud would have the painful duty to elect another gentleman in his place. It was fortunate that they had a gentleman pre- seut who was fully qualified for the office, and univer- sally esteemed, and who had, moreover, a thorough knowledge of the business of the board and of the oper- atiou of the Poor Law system. When he would name him, he was sure all the guardians would concur with him that th ;re was no gentleman more qualified for the office. He begged to move that Mr Richards, of Ynys, be the Chairman of this Board for the ensuing year. (Hear, hear.) The motion having been duly seconded, was passed with acclamation. Vice-chairman.—T&r Elias Jones proposed the Rev. James Mortis as vice-chairman, observing that that gentle- man had always taken a great interest in the business of the Union, had been constant iu his attendance of the meetings of the board, and had ably defended the board when it was attacked. (Hear.) The motion was seconded by Mr Richard Pierce, and carried unanimously. Mr Pierce proposed Mr Elias Jones, Gwredog, as second vice-chairman, as he was a guardian who dis- charged his duties faithfully, and was acquainted with the wants and requirements of the poor. This was seconded by Mr Hugh Evaus, and passed new. con. Assessment Committee.—The Clerk said that the next business was the election of the Assessment Committee, which was by far the most important of the branches of the board. The ex-officio members for the past year were the Rev. James Williams, Llanfairynghornwy Rev. Edward Herbert, Llandyfrydog; Henry Webster, Esq., Ty'nypwll; and Henry Pritchard, Esq., Treseawen. The Rev. James Morris proposed the Rev. James James Williams, Rev. E. Herbert, Mr Webster, and Mr Pritchard, ex-officio members of the Assessment Com- mittee, as they lived in the neighbourhood, aud oc- casionally attended the meetings of the board. He hoped they would honour the board with their presence oftener in the futuie. Mr Elias Jones, in seconding the motion, remarked that the board woulft be very glad to have the services of the ex-officio members. The motion was then passed unanimously. The board 'then proceeded to elect eight elected guardians to serve on the Assessment Committee, the following gentlemen being proposed by the Rev. E. Herbert, and appointed in succession by the board The Chairman of the Board; the vice-chairmen Rev. Hugh Owen Messrs Richard Pierce, Llanbabo Richard Williams, Llangefni; Richard Williams, Llan. gwyllog; and John Griffith, Llanrhwydrys. l'iiiaiiee Comi)iittee.-The followiug gentlemen were appointed to constitute the Finance Committee :—Chair- man and two Vice-chairmen o* the lioard; Mr Roberts, Peubol, Amlwch; Rev. Hugh Owen Messrs Owen Owens, Llanerchymedd Mill; William Roberts, Llan- bad rig Richard Hughes, Llanfairynghornwy; Moses Williams, Llangefui Owen Pritchard, Tregaian Hugh Thomas, Llanbedrgoch and Richard Williams, Llan- gefni. The Clerk said that the guardians would have next to appoint the first day for the Assessment Committee to meet. The Chairman suggested this day fortnight, the 13th of May. This was agreed to, and it was resolved that the As- sessment Committee meet every month. The Chairman (Mr Richards) then rose and said that he was very much obliged to the guardians for their kindness in appoiuting him as Chairman of the Board for the eii;itiiu,- year. He was afraid they had selected a person who was not competent for the office, and there were other gentlemen in the board more deserving of the honour, but he had only to say that he would do his best. Rev. James Morris in returning thanks for being elected vice-chairman, said that he would not have at- tended the board this year had it not been for the state of the Workhouse question, which he thought it was their duty to carry out fully, since they had taken the matter in hand, and they would be looked upon as cowards if they withdrew from the work after having gone so far. He trusted the guardians would endeavour to attend the meetings of the board as often as possible, as they were hound to do so in justice to the ratepayers. The calls were becoming very heavy, and it was their duty to do everything in their power to check the ex- penditure. He trusted they would get on well in the ensuing year, as they had a Chairman w ho understood the business, and it was their duty, as guardians, to sup- port the chair whenever it was attacked. Mr Elias Jones, in returning thanks, said that the honour came to him quite unexpected, as there were other gentlemen present whose experience was much greater than his; and who were more competent for the office. He concurred with what had been already said, that the utmost vigilance should be exercised in dispensing poor relief, as the rates were increasing, and complaints were numerous. Ex))Cnsesof Clothing,-Hev, Hugh Owen said that he had a motion to lay before the guardians, which he felt was quite necessary, as there were several complaints in respect to the matter. He would not enter into the matter now, as he would have an opportunity of doing so again. He would move that returns be produced by the different relieving officers this day month, of the ex- penses incurred in clothing, during the year ending 25th March; upon what principle the relieving officers give their orders to the tradesmen in Amlweh, Llanerchy- medd, and Llaugefui; and upon what principle the clothing is distributed among the poor. He thought they ought to be in possession of all these facts, and when the returns were produced, he would bring before the board a series of resolutions based upon them. Mr Elias Jones concurred with Mr Owen tbst it was a question that called for the immediate attention of the board. In reply to a question, Mr John Roberts, relieving ofifcer for the Llangefni district, said that he gave the order to the poor, and generally went with them to procure the clothing to some of the shops in Llangefni. Mr John Evans, relieving officer for the Amlwch dis- trict, said that he did the same, and generally went to the shops where he thought the clothing could be pro- cured cheapest. The relieving officers complained that they would have to ransackall the bills for the past year before they could produce the returns, which would take them some time to do. Rev. Hugh Owen then agreed to alter his motion, and limit it to six months. The relieving offieers were then ordered to produce the returns asked for by this day month. Rev. Edward Herbert wished to know what had become of the wine that had been ordered by the board for the use of the sick poor? Mr John Roberts (RO.), said that the wine consigned to his care had been all dispensed. Mr Herbert said that he only wanted to make sure that the poor had the benefit of it, as they were entitled to have. On the motion of Mr Herbert, the relieving officers were ordered to include the wine account in the returns moved for by Mr Owen. The minutes of the previous meeting were then read confirmed. The Clerk also read a statement of the receipts and expenditure for the past half-year, as well as of the finan- cial position of the Union at the present time, from which it appeared that the total value of the Union was L49,760, at 2s Ojd in the pound. He stated that the statements would be distributed among the parishes as early as possible. Calls-The Clerk was very sorry to say that several parishes were very backward with their calls, and there was a large sum required to pay the poor. He also re- minded the board that 1254 7s was due to the Trea- surer to-day, which was a very serious state of affairs. The following parishes had not paid any of the old call Coedana, Llanallgo, Llanbadrig, Llaneilian, Llanerch- ymedd, Llanfechell, Llanfihangeltre'rbeirdd, and Pen. rhoslligwy. He also read a list of the parishes which had but partly paid the call, and mentioned Amlwch parish as being exceedingly backward. There was still above £1000 balance due from parishes, and it would be very desirable for the guardians to lay the caae before the overseers at once, or else they would soon be wit. out money to pay the poor. Several of the above parishes paid the call in the course of the day. Rating of Woodlands.—The Clerk produced and read a petition which he had drawn out by order of the board, praying Parliament to pass a measure, providing for the rating of woodlands, plantations, copper mines, and railways constructed above the level of water-mark, for the maintenance of the poor. The petition enume- rated at length the various reasons assigned for demand- ing such a measure, and also including in the prayer, a hupe that persons holding shares in the Funds would be compelled to contribute towards the police and other expenses. Mr Elias Jones, although he went somewhat against his friend Mr Roberts (Penbol), warmly supported the petition, and said copper mines especially ought to be rated. The Parys Cupper Mine, although not very flou- rishing now, had been returning handsome profits, and he thought it was only right that they should contribute to the maintenauce of the poor. He moved that the petition he adopted. This was seconded by Mr Pierce, and carried nem con., the Clerk stating that he would forward the peti- tition to Sir Richard Bulkeley, the member for the county, for presentation in the House of Commons. The Chairman did not see how they could value plan- tations and such things as those. Rev. E. Herbert said it would be soon enough to con- sider that when the bill was passed. There would, no doubt be a great struggle over it. The County Rate.-The Clerk said that there were loud complaints on account of the county rate being so heavy last quarter, and a letter had been read from the county treasurer, stating why it was so, He was glad to inform the guardians that there would be no county rate for the next quarter. There would only be a police rate of X172 17s 3d, or id in the t. A Lunatic and his Money.-The Clerk said that he had received a letter from Bangor, enclosing thb sum of 20s, to be paid to tho account of the Union. The guar- dians would remember that a man was sent to the asy- lum a short time ago, and the policeman at Bangor found 20s on his person, which, it appeared, had been lent to the poor man by one William Jones, llrynkir, The policeman had declined to give the money to any- bodMlmt him (Mr Hughes) and he now paid them over to bra. Unless some of the guardians objected, he would pay the money over to William Jones. None of the guardians objected. The A mhcch Collector of Ratcs,-The Clerk read a let- ter from Mr Wynne, of Amlwch, stating that the ves- try of that parish was not satisfied with the security given by the collector, William Jones, and requesting the board to certify that they were safe. He had writ- ten to Mr Wynne to the etfect that William Jones was not a servant of the Union, but of the parish, inasmuch as the parish had appointed him. If he had been ap- pointed by the board, the guardians would have the right to interfere. Mr Elias Jones asked if the collector of rates was a permanent officer ? The Clerk said that he was not appointed permanent, but yearly. He would be assistant-overseer until he was dismissed by the vestry, or another person elected in his stead. There were collectors of rates belonging to some Unions, but not to the Anglesey Union. Mr Elias Jones and Mr Hugh Roberts said that some parties in Amlwch argued that William Jones was an officer of the Union. The Clerk said that he was not, and the board could not interfere in the matter. The subject then dropped. Homeless Children and Heartless Parenls-The Clerk reported that three children of the name of Stewart bad been removed to this Union from Manchester, their mother having left them as their father had before done. The father was in America, and it was very probable the mother had gone after him, thus leaving the poor chil- dren unprotected. It would be necessary for the reliev- ing officers to provide lodgings for them, as they were chargeable to this Union, and could not be refused. Pauper Lunatics.—X bill was produced for the main tenauee of lunatics belonging to this Union in the North Wales Lunatic Asylum at Denbigh, and Mr Elias Jones, who bad recently visited that institution, said that the authorities complained that this Union was very back- ward in paying its bills, it being very often two or three months after they were due. The Clerk said it could not be helped, as the rails were so badly paid, and therefore they had no money in hand. The list of the lunatics ws then read by the Clerk, and Mr Elias Jones reported upon the cases seriatim. He said that tie could not find anything the matter with Matthew Matthews, except that he would not talk auy Welsh; and Richard Jones, Penrhoslligwy, he found pretty well. William Lewis was also better. No change was reported in the condition of the other luna- tics. Mr Jones said that Matthews was also very snap- pish, and wanted to be taken home, as he did not see the use of beiog kept there. This concluded the business of the board.

STOCK EXCHANGE.I
STOCK EXCHANGE. I LONDON, Wednesday Evening, 29th April, 1868. The auocessful issue of the Abyssinian expedition, known early on Monday, imparte I a strong feeling of confidence in all departments of the Stock Exchange, and the home tunds ad. vanced to9»J. This sudden rise brought a large qu'ntity of Stock to market, and considerable sales have taken place. Indian and Colonial Stocks are all firm, having participated in the improved feeling. The Foreign Stock market has not been much influenced, but an important rise has taken pi tee in the price of Chilian an d Peruvian Securities. The Railway Loans of Russia, guaranteed by the Government, are attracting marked attention, the low price of which, I think, must bring them ultimately into favour. In the Railway market the recent settlement discloses an abundant supply of Stock, excepting Caledonian, Midland, and Great Western, and in the former case, Stock being so scarce, that as much as 20 per cent. per annum had to be vaid to defer delivery until the lath proximo. The Scotch banks, it is said, are making large advances on the Stock. »f the New Loans mentioned in my last circular, the Tas- manian has been ezcerly accepted, but for SOUle cause the one for the Indiana Southern Railway has been withdrawn.

REVIEW OF THB BRITISH CORX…
REVIEW OF THB BRITISH CORX TRADE DURING THE PAST WEEK. The weather of the past week was of a mixed character, and sometimes very boisterous and hurtful to the fruit blossoms, which had suffered more previously from frost; but there lias been a good fall of rain at last, with a more genial temput ire. which was not only much wanted here, but also in France and the neighbouring countries. The fertile lands of Hungary have, however, farod uncommonly well, and another good harvest in these region is looked for with continence. Victoria, in Austra- lia, has finished her gatherings, and may yet have luu.u^/ qrs to spare for export. Our foreign arrivals for the last mor.th have averaged about 200,0-J" firs. weekly, including Hour, so that these have not been much bdowour requirements. The ice list bro- ken in the Neva, and St Petersburg may again h-lp us; while if France does not rise in her claims, we may get S&fdy on at about present ?ate? till harvest. And let us ?101)e this will be the case. Still the reducton of stocks in the country is very de ided, and but little home produce appears in any market, while our prices have generally been tending upwards, to the extent of about Is per qr. Our last deliveries were 15,088 qrs leis than last year, and 33,257 ilts. less tha i in lsGt>—tiiat is, they are little more than one-half wh.t they then were. should we ran short, there IS no help for U8 in Spring corn. The best crop of OaW has greatly fallen off aud barley seems almost exhausted. Beans aiid pease only arrive in cotcheis, and our dependence in any emergency must be on the imports of Maize, which promise to be much larger than was once expected, while price; have fallen about as per qr. This has, therefore, become tne cheapest grain in the market. An respects foreign countries, the French country markets have rather hardened, and aotne have report- d an advance, as Paris did in the middle of the week, though this was subsequently lost. Holland notes a rise in wheat and grain generally; Belgium, for the most part, has been firm but Ger- many has varied between firmness and some decline, influenced by moru favourable weather; as at Danzic, which was Is to 2s per qr cheaper, more especially for inferior quality wheat, but eventually a French demand nearly recovered this loss. Hun- gary reports former prices as well as Canada, though Queb.c harbour is now open. New York, in anticipation of supplies, was rather lower for flour an i wheat.
I LIVERPOOL CORN MARKMT.-TCKSOAY.
LIVERPOOL CORN MARKMT.-TCKSOAY. Our imports since last Tuesday are light of wheat and aliother articles, except Indian cor J, which is again in large supply, and chiefly from America. The exports are sm ill; sMpmei.ts of In- dian corn to Ireland are rather on the iuorease, bui still on a moderate scale compared with the arrivals our own country (lem tiid is also small. The country markets are now very scantily supplied with Eng. lish wheat, but the remarkably hue weather has checked any further advance. e have had less demand for foreign wheat here during the past week, but importers do nor iliow the least disposition to give way in price. Fiour is held very ttrmly. In. dian corn has had rather ikioreinquir)- for Ireland, but the ar- rivals from America being large, and importers anxious to sell ex quay, prices have declined Is qer quarter compared with last Tuesday. Beans and pease from scarcity are both the turn dear- er. No alteration in oats or other articl s. Tnere was lo change in Mark Lane yesterday except for finest English wheats which being scarce brought is per quarter more than last Monday. Our latest American mail adv.ces report a slight reaction in wheat and tfour from the depression or the previ"us wee*, small arrivals and a return of veiy severe weather impacting consider- able activity to the trade. Indian com was rather worse than better, with a slow demand, and more anxiety on the part of holders to be realising before canal navigation opened. The week's shipments from New York to Liverpool were 20^3 quar- ters wheat, 7[;"2 barrels flour, and 7,quarters ItJdbn corn.

Lard also has been eagerly b ¡ught up, and we advance our quotations Is Ud per cwt Gnuese has been comparatively neglected, and the improvement of last week is with difficulty maintained. We have had a fair attendance of millers and dealers at our corn exchange this morning, and we report a moderate consump- tive, business passing in boh wheat and flour at the same prices as on Tuesday last. Indian corn has given way another tM per quarter to-day making Is Od on the week, nut with a much better demand at the decline, oats and oatmeal steady at late rates.
