I IS THE BANGOR NORMAL COLLEGE A POLITICAL INS l'ITUTION 1 SIR,-I have been struck with the foregoing query in my own mind from two circumstances which have taken place of late. Firstly, Mr John Price, the vice- principal of the above college, presided at the meeting held here ou Saturday week in favour of the candida- ture of Mr Bulkeley Hughes, and exhibited there, in my opinion, too much partisan political feeling, —in his very mild and fascinating way denouncing his political op- ponents in general, and the Tories'' in particular. Also, auother officer of this institution, Mr John Thomas, the second schoolmaster, applied at the Bangor Borough Revision Court for a vote, stating that he rented rooms in the college, the fact beiug that this gentleman is paid a certain sum for his services, which includes the free use ot two rooiss. This claim was very properly dis- allowed. Now, Mr Editor, [ think it was very far from the in- teutiou of the subscribers to this college when it was founded that any vice-principal, second schoolmaster, or other oiffcer who, bear in miud, has charge of the edu- cation, so to speak, of a large number of our young men should appear in public as a thoroughly political partisan. This institution is supported by men of all shades of opinion, and I think if party strife is allowed to be sym- bolized there, it will tend to alieuate a very large num- ber of some of the best subscriptionists as well as give very general dissatisfaction. Indeed, I am con- vinced that if the feelings of the trustees and subscribers were canvassed, it would be fouud that they are unani- mously opposed to their vice-principal expressing publicly any political opinions whatever. IV ith a hopc tbat this subject will be ventilated a little further.—I am, faithfully, yours, I GOOD SENSE. I

THE LATE RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT HOLY. I WELL. At the Rhyl petty sessions, before Sir Pyers Mostyn, Bart., T. G. Dixon, F. Theed, Esqrs., and Captain Thomas, held on Tuesday, Mr Taylor, of Flint, ap- peared for Hugh Jones, station matter, Holywell, who had received a summons requiring him to appear at that court to answer the charge that on the day of the col- lision he unlawfully, and wilfully, and negligently did omit to do a certain act, to wit, to put up the sema- phore sigual danger to show that the line was not free at the time, causing the express train to run into collision with the goods train, whereby the life and limbs of Wil- liam Edwards.Wood were endangered." Mr Edwards- Wood had since written to his client a letter, in which he withdrew the summons but the charge was one of a serious nature, no less than wilful and culpable negli. gence, whereby a certain life was endangered. Mr George (magistrate's clcrk) said that the court could not go into the matter now, as, upon Mr Taylor's own showiug, the summons had been withdrawn. Mr Taylor said that the issuing of the summons and the consequent publicity giveu to the affair had been in some quarters no doubt very injurious to his client. Mr George said, before the matter could be heard at all, Mr Edwards-Wood ought to be there. Mr Taylor desired to relieve his client, who was at the time absent on leave, from the reflection cast upon him. The Bench said they could not, in the absence of the prosecutor, hear the case. The press would no douht note what Mr Taylor had said, which would answer his requirements. Air Taylor said it was rather hard upon his client, who had been in the service of the company for 18 or 19 years, out of which he had served the last ten years as station-master, and during that time no charge had ever been brought against him, he having on all occa- sions faithfully discharged his responsible duties. The matter then dropped.

The Rev. Mr Martin A. Keene, curate of Harold's- cross Church, Dublin, has been drowned while bathiug awung the rock a at Bray.

GLANOGWEN. LECTUUE.—The Rev. D. W. Thomas, St. Ann's, deli- vered one of a series of lectures on Church Establish- ment, iu (ilanogwen School, to a numerous audience, on Friday, the 18th ult. During Its delivery the assem- bly (with the exception of some childish young men, and deluded fanatics) manifested the utmost decorum. The rcverend gcntlemau ws peculiarly apt alld telling in the treatment of his subject, and his popular and winning style of oratory g lined for him frequent plau- dits. Such a course of lectures has become almost a recognised institution in this neighb jurhood; and the results are likely to prove highly beneficial to the Church ifself, as well as to secure respect and reverence for its I'.inisteiB for among the working classes, and especially those of Wales, the esteem for an institution is felt in the same ratio as the ability of its upholders is exhibited in attesting and proving its validity. And it is pleasing to see that the clergy of these parts have displayed the most commendable interest and zeal in furthering the welfare of the Church, as well as anxiety and care in instructing their parishioners in thoae Illatterd respecting its princi- ples, of which so many are tot Illy ignorant, and more from want of knowledge than anything else bring for- ward as a ground of argument and contention. In London a rmasher," named Pearce, has died from the effects of swallowing a counterfeit half-crown.

HARVEST THANKSGIVINGS. LLANDDONA.—A harvest home thanksgiving service was held in this Parish Church on Tuesday evening last. Prayers were read by the Rev. Dr Davits, vicar of Llangoed, &c., after which a most appropriate and impressive sermon was delivered by the same gentleman to a crowded and attentive congregation from Ephesian v., 20, Giving thanks always, for all things, unto God and the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I'ENRHoSLUQWir.—On Wednesday evening lasf,atG 3J p.m., this beautiful little church was filled by a respect- able congregation, to return thauks to a gracious Provi- dence, for the late good and abundant harvest The incumbent, the Rev. H. H. Hughes, M.A., read the service, after which, the liev. Williams, curate of Amlwch, preached Ia solemn and appropriate sermon from St. Mark iv. 28. The singing was very creditable indeed. LLANALLGO.—The annual thanksgiving service to Almighty God for the late bounteous ingathering of the harvest, was held on Tuesday eveuiug last, at the venerable old church of Llanallgo, which was very tont:fully decorated by the Misses Morris, the Rectory, with wheat ears and evergreens. Service commenced at 6 30 p m., when the prayers, appropriate psalms and lessons were read by the Rev. John Richards, incumbent of Amlwch, and an edifying and appropriate sermon was preache d by the ltev. Jones, Bude(lerti, from 1st Samuel u., ZiO, Thcm that honour me, X will honour. There was a goodly number IIf choristers present; the responses, rendered to Tallis' arrangement, with accom- paniments on the harmonium, were well and effectively giveu. The psalm tunes, with appropriate words were taken from the Gwyl Cynhauaf. Although the weather was most boisterous, the church was densely crowded, and the sermon was listened to with earnestness and devotion. > LLANKUQRAD.—On the afternoon of Tuesday last the parishioners of Llaneugrad assembled in large num bers 3t this old church, (which was built in the year 607, and lately restored) in large numbers, to offer to the Giver of all goodness, their hAarty and unbounded thanks for the late harvest abundantly vouchsafed to them. The Rev. James Morris, the rector, read the prayers, after which the Rev. John Richards, Amlwch, preached an excellent sermon, appropriate to the scca sion.

A calamity has occurred in Hull, involving seriou loss of life and injuries On Iriday morning tile warc house of Messrs. Walker and Smith, seed crushers, sud denly fell in, and buried iu the ruins all the men em ployed on the premises. It is supposed that there would be from twenty to thirty workmen employed at the time, but the precise number it was difficult to ascertain. Four of the coopers were taken from the ruins alive, but two of them died soon after their ad- mission to the infirmary, and the bodies of other five of the persons employed at the mill were rto >vered during th« afternoon. Ilia lILL AND His FWEHDS.—Mr John Stuart Mill has taken under his special patronage auother of the Re- form League candidates for Parliament. He lately astonished the world by sending XIO and a sympathising letter to promote the candidature at Northampton of Bradlaugh, a man who reviles everything that decent DIn hold sacred. He has since sent a check for X26 to Odger, one of the noisest of the Reform League gang, who is standing as a working man candidate for Chelsea. Mr Mill writes to him as Deir Mr O.lger," and says, there is no election in which I take a warmer interest than in yours" —not even Mr Brad- laugh's It is questionable whether Mr Mill's proteges are much elevated by his patronage, but it is certain that Mr Mill himself—who was once respected by the world-must fall greatly in public estimation by coun- tenancing such meu. OPESINO OF A WKSLEYATF COLLEGE.-The Wesleyan College that .has been in the course of erection at Headingley, near Leeds, for ab»ut sixteen months past, was formally opened on Friday. The building is de- scribed as a somewhat extensive one, and well adapted for training pur poses in respect of site and accommoda- tion, whilst in an architectural sense it is an excellent example of the pure early Gothic of the 12th century. Aocommodatiou has been provided for forty students, but the arrangements are such that twenty more c tn be admitted when necessary. Messrs. Wilson and Will- cox, of London and Bath, are the architects. Mr Isaac Holden, M.P., laid the foundation stone in May, 11366. The tower rises to a height of seventy feet. It has a conically shaped termination, which is executed in Meanwood sandstone, with cornices of red Mansfield, and rests upon sixteen coupled red Mansfield shafts with carved caps. Immediately below the termination are the clock and balcony stages. The walls of the building are of Potternewton stone, with dressings from the Meanwood quarries. Ma MEeHl ON THIN SEEDING —Mr Mechi, in a letter in the Times, has the following remarks on thin seeding: —" In former times when seed was broad-casted, laud uudraiued, no blowing or dressing machines to extract light or imperfect kernels, and no preparing of the seed, it was necessary to sow large quantities but now that each grain is perfect, is properly deposited in the soil by the drill, is not rotted by stagnant water in undrained soils, and is properly prepared to resist smut, it has be- come absolutely necessary to diminish the quantity of seid, for nearly every kernel grows It is evident that these altered circumstances have not generally been duly considered, for, according to Mr Caird's valuable statis- tics, the quantity of seed sown in England is Wheat, three bushels per acre barley, four bushels per acre and oats five hushels per acre. An intelligent young Scotch farmer from F orfarshire told me the other day that he broad-casted four bushels of wheat, five bushels of barley, and seven bushels of oats per Scotch acre, and expressed his astonishment at seeing my wheat so thick and atroag from only one bushel per acre. Mr Caird estimates the return as only nine kernels for one sown. My 73 acres of wheat, sown with one bushel per acre, will yield more than 4a bushels for one. Each farmer should arrive at a conclusion suited to his soil and cli- mate by the trial of diminished quantities on half-acre pieces. This has enabled me to suit the quantity of seed to my soil, climate, time of sowing, and circum- stances. In the United Kingdom we have 11,50,000 acres under corn crops. The useless and injurious ex- cess of seed must therefore cause a loss to the country of several millions sterling. The nature of the wheat is to branch out horizontally in the spring. If crowded and cramped (like an unthinued plantation), it runs up weakly and vertically, and especially in mild seasons gets laid injuriously both as to quantity and quality. I never sow more than six pecks of barley and eight pecks of wheat per acre. From trial half-acres of wheat with only one peck per acre the return has been 232 for one but I do not recommend so small a quantity fur genera' use. I THE USES OF AN ELECTION AGF.NT.-The function of the agent may be defined in a general way as the supplementing of moral enthusiasm. Ho fills up the gap between the expectations of the Utopian candidate and the hard fact of electoral indifference, bringing the two things into closer and more satisfactory connection. Above all things, he rectiifes the candidate's indiscretion. There is something almost fatherly in the solicitude with which an election agent who likes his work watches over his wan, and admonishes him of this thing and that. You object with unwise and unmanly fastidiousness to gra<p the horny and grimy han 1 of the son of t iil fresh fro-a his labours. Your agent points out gloves as a delicate compromise between your feeling and his. Your manner is too reserved he warns you that they detest pride. You are over-boisterous and genial to ex- cess he hints that they can distinguish sincerity from artifice. As one looks back upon it there is something marvellous and astounding, as well as touching, in the fact that such thoughtful fidelity should be procurable for the small sum of 100 guineas In a prolonged can- vass a good agent is worth anything in this way, and he earns his fee. The candidate is kept up by the force of his aspirations and his hopes, which are moral quanti- ties but how can mere cash sustain a man without these hopes or aspirations in a long electioneering progress through a large borough, catling at every house, talking one by one to a multitude of perverse, stupid, and ignor- ant men and women (for, though women do not have votes, everybody who has watched an election knows how much political power they have), saying the same things, stating the same argumcnt;, rebutting the sam^ objections a hundred times a day for weeks ? To what greater marvel of euduraucj did the accursed hunger for gold ever drive mortal men !-Pull Mail Oa;e!le.

RAUIS, Sept. 30.—The Joum.il de Debuts publishes, j under reserve, a telegram stating that General Nuva- Uchezhad dissolved his army, and that MarshaliSerrauo was marching 011 Ma Irid unopposed. fhe Steele states that the Spauish Embassy in Paris has received no news from tipaiu for the last 48 hours. The Monitcur da tioiv 6ays, the telegraph has brought the foLl>v.mg serious Liews from Madud, under yesterday's date: The otiicial Gazette aunouuees that a first eugagemeut has taken place betweeu General Novalichez aud Mar- shal rferrauo at the bridge of Alcola. The forces of Novalichez, who was wounded, have eucamped upon the uattle-lield. I he news was followed by a proclamation calling upon the inhabitants to preserve order. Great agitation prevails at Madrid, and flags are being carried auuut the streets beai-iug the insci il)tioa-l' Tiie SUVe- reiguty of the people!' The troops are confined to theu barracks.

The same journal says that the eugage- meut betweeu Serrano aud Novalichez Was not a severe one. Queen Isabella has seut a proposition to Marshal Serrano, oli'eriutf to resign iu favour of the Prints Astu- rias. Ueuerul Serrano refused to entertain the proposal. The Queeu has determined to mass the troops remain- iug faithful to her behind Ebro, aud to trauster the seat uf government to Pampeluua. Charles the Sei-entu, the Prince of AstuiW, is reported to have arrived at the Spanish frontier. IJAYONWK, Sept. 3a—The Spanish Consul has re- ceived information that the Queen of Spain will pass through here at half-past ten in the morning. General Echague, one of the exiled officers, landed to-day at Ma- chago. The engagement betweeu the iusurgeuts under Marshal Serrauo and the corps commanded by General Novalichez took place at the bridge of Alcola, over the Guadalquiver, near Cordova. Queen Isabella arrived at a quarter past twelve o'clock to-Jay at the frontier town of Hendage, en route forPau. Queeu Isabella is now here, and is going to Pau. ST. Jt:AN DE Luz, Sept. 30.-The Queen of Spain is hourly expected with the royal family at Pezuela, in euuseq ueuce of the risiug of Madrid. It is said that Barcelona has pronounced in favour of the rebellion. The TVmes says, the insurrection in Spain has reached a new stage. But a very little more and it will be revo- lution. Everything is doubtful when the subject is a Spauish insurrection, but it is hard to remain doubtful any longer now that her kingdom has slipped from under Queeu Isabella. The next news may be that the Queen is at liayonne. Prom the very first we noted some peculiar symptoms in this rising. The Queen's mini- sters dared not confront the insurrection, but decamped in a body. The Q-ieen herself has been excluded from the capital. Province after province has given illl its ad. hesiou to the risiug until Madrid seemed to be sur- rounded by a circle of insurrection. The chief political nances declared themselves on the side of the insurgents, and it was plainly declared that the rebellion this time was directed agaiust the throne itself. The Tunes notices the dynastic question, and says, as the Spaniards, we are told, will, if they have the chance, rid themselves this time of the whole Bourbon family once and for all, this resolution would exclude not only the Queen, but all the Queen's descendants and relatives. Tne alternative, therefore, is an entirely njw dynasty, or a Government without any dynasty at all-that is a republic. To each of these schemes it is obvious to discover objections. Uepublic institutions are not to the taste of the Span- iards, and it is not easy to find a new dynasty, especially when the likeliest he use for the purpose, the reigning house of Portugal is condemned. However, the pros pect of this perplexity is not likely to affect the course of the revolution in its present stage. The tea brought by the first clippers this season is of very poor quality. Gibraltar advices of the 23rd inst. state that the Mayor of Algeciras has been murdered, and the governor has come to Gibraltar for safety.

At Mark Lane yesterday Englisn wheit was only saleable at a decline of Is per quarter; foreign not being so plentiful re- mained nominally as on Nlonday .&,it. Our latest American mail advices betray some weakness amongst holders of wheat and flour, and there was evidently more tiii) .iitioii to meet the views of exporters, owing to the accumulation of stocks. Indian coin was also rather lower, and as the crop was out of all fear of danger from frost, a good ship- ing trade with this country wai anticipated throughout the win- ter.

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN" TRADE DURING THE VAST WEEK. Although the week up to Friday was sunny and dry, we than had another fall of rain, very servicable to vegetation but much more is still wanted to replenish the streams and reservoirs. The past drought has much cleaned the land, as well as cleared it of many hurtful vermin, e-pecially slugs, while it has brought a crop of acorns only comparable to wheat in quality and abun- dances Where oaks abound, these, if carefully gathered, may help tock through the loming winter. Wheat prices have again rather hardened, the average advance being nearly Is per qr but the London millers, having reduced their prices 4s per sack, in the face of a rise of Is per qr. on wheat, will of course discourage the least upward movement. Whether they were right in thei'anticipation remains io be seen; but well-to-do farmers, not being under their control, can settle that question before we have t-et in of large foreign supplies. At any rate, if bakers follow the movement, it will be a benefit to the public, and give more notoriety to unreasonable rates. The French markets, ItS well as Pari, are r-ither dearer for wheat, like our- selves. Whether the Spanish insurrection will send up prices still higher in that country must depend on the piouiptness either of the extinction or success of the movement. But should there be protracted bloodshed, agriculture must be put back, and rates yet farther advanced.
