The North Wales Chronicle and Advertiser for the Principality

A policeman at Liverpool has been committed for trial for stealing a watch from a drunken man in May last. lie acknowledged the offence. Mr Arthur l'emberton, son of Mr Chas. Pembertou, attorney in Liverpool, has been apprehended on the serious charge of having pissed forged cheques on two tradesmen in town, in payment of accounts which he owed them. The Governor of Pennsylvania has issued a procla- mation against prize fighting The nuisance seeujs therefore to he likely to be put an eud to iu America as it nractically has beeu in England. The proposal to make a tunnel across the channel between England and France has been recently revived. Au address, numerously signed by English noblemen, membeis of Parliament, and others, has been presented to the Euipiror Napoleon, soliciting his aid and influ- ence in promoting the project. hlt'otiHiieering matters in Windsor have assumed a novel phase. Colonel Gardner, the Conservative candi- date, accuses the friends of his opponent, .Mr Eykyn, of having "ofroi-etl to lay braggart wageis on the ie-ult of the election," and of having withdrawn the bets on various pretexts after they were accepted. He there- fore wrote to Mr Eykyu, offering to wager £ 5U0 that the. hou gentleman would not win the election and re- tain his seat. The Liberal candidate refuses to take up the challenge. The shareholders of the Royal Bank of Liverpool have resolved that proceedings shall be taken against the directors to make them responsible for their breaches of trust, and for such other acts of misconduct as might appear from the reports of the Supervision Committee and that the proceedings be taken at the expense of the bank estate. The chairman, Mr A. 1'. Fletcher, de. clared that the mectiug was incompetent to pass tho resolution ordering the prosecution of the directors. CAUSE OF THE JULY HKAT.—The Scientific ltevieuj names as the causes hitherto alleged for the heat of J lily the eruption of Vesuvius, the earthquakes in the Sand- wich Islands, the approach of the Gulf Stream, the shooting stars of November, and the return of the troops fioiii Abyssitiii. Wemay add, the political caloric dis- eugaged by the attack on the Irish Church but, iu truth, though that attack has a gi eat deal to do with the matter, it is iu quite another way. We have the following from a trustworthy source. The Sun and the Prince of ltaikness, Apollo and Apollyon, bought a joint bargain of coals, the stock of a bankrupt selling off: the whole was delivered at the Suu's cellar. Now, Apollyon, being very busy he)ping)Ir Gladstone with the Irish job, forgot to send for liisshare and both halves were accordingly, by inadvertence, laid on the sun's surface. We all know the result. ARRIVAL OF AN ABYSSINIAN TRANSPORT IS THE I MERSEV.—Yesterday one or the largest 01 tne Liverpool floet of Abyssinian transports arrived at Liverpool froia Auuealey Bay. via the Mauritius aud Spitiiead. The England (which belongs to the National Steam Ship Company) returned to this port from the East, where for more than twelve months she has been employed in the transport, service of the Government in connection with tne late Abyssinian war. We learn that during her employment abroad the various Government oilieiuls have repeatedly expressed their high approbation of tie way in which she has performed her work, her immense size and spacious accommodation rendeiing her peculiarly well adapted for the conveyance of large numbers of troops. She will now resume her former place in the trade between Liverpool, Queeustown, and New York, aud we notice she is advertised to sail as the steamer of the National Line, for New fork, on the 28th instant with passengers and goods. The England was, iu company with her sister ship, the Queen, the first of the Liverpool steam transports which was to leave Liverpool for Bombay, and it was to her coii- uiaiuler, Captain Thompson, that the prise for the first transport arrival at liombay was awarded the Queen, however, running the England a neck-and-neck race. Both vessels were afterwards eagaged in carrying troops and stores betweeu Bombay and Annesley Bay. Captain Thompson, and Captain Urogan, of the Queen, have been warmly complimented for the manner in which they per. formed their arduous and complicated transport duties by the military and uaval authorities. The Queen left Bombay on the 17th September for Liverpool, via the Cape of Good Hol)e.Liverpool Daily Post, Oct., 13th. MANCHESTER CAMBRIAN LITERARY SOCIETY.— The ninth aunual meeting of the above society took place on Wednesday evening, last week, at the society's rooms, Mount-street, Manchester. Before the business of the evening was commenced the members, together with their lady friends, sat down to an excellent tea provided by Mr M. Roberts. Amongst those pre- sent were- -Mr W. Conway (piesideut of the society), in the chair; Mr J ohn U llliams (vice-president), in the vice-cliair; Ili, Ellis Jones, Mrs Jones, and Miss M. J. Jones, Mr Maurice Jones, Honorary Secretary, and Miss Jones, Ntr T. It. Williams, Nlrs Napier, and Miss Cridge, Mrs John Williams, Messrs Powell, D. O'Brien, C. H. Evans and Dickinson, Mr H. George, Mr Griffith Jones, Miss Conway, Mr and Mrs Edward Williams, of Brad- ford; Mr Cooper, Bradford; MrT. Barker, Mr and Mis Dani-d Jones, &c. Tea being ended there was placed on the table, wine, grapes, almonds and raisins, and other delicacies, after which, the President rose and stated that it afforded hiiu more than ordinary pleasure to pre- side over them that evening for the first time in the annals of the society they were honoured by the pre- sence of their lady friends at a business meeting, and he was quite sure that every one present would, like him- self, appreciate the compliment the ladies paid them in coming amongst them that evening. (Cheers.) He would not take lip till) time of the meeting by extending his re- marks, but would call upon the honorary secretary, Mr M. Joins to read the report for the past year. The report stated that durir.g the last twelve months, ei ht monthly aud one adjourned meeting had been held-that the average attendance had been fourteen each meeting. The papers read by the members duriug the year con- sisted of the fohowing "Address on the Formation of Coal, by Mr J. Altid Williams." 2. "Wilil Wales," b"v Mr W.J. Williams. 3." Free Speech," by Mr It. J. Derfel. J- Discretion should be the line drawn between Free om and Restraint,a reply to Mr K. J. Ueifel's paper on Free Speech by Mr Edward Williams. 5 "Auhebgorion Bywyd, Llwyddiant a Dedwyddwch," (the necessities of Life, Prosperity and Happiuess), by Mr John Davies. The address on the formation of coal occupied two evenings in discussion. The committee congratulated the members on their average attendance, but complained that ouly five papers had been read durin" the past session the report strongly urged upon the members an improvement in this respect, and con- eluded by stating tiiat during the year s x members had been admitted into the society, and that the number of members now on the books amounted to 35. The finances were in a satisfactory state there being a balance of ltfs. only due to the treasurer. The report as read having been adopted and ordered to be entered III the minutes, the meeting then proceeded to the election of officers for the ensuing year, the result being an follows: President, Mr John Williams; vice president, Mr H. George treasurer, Mr C. H. Evans, hon. secretary, Mr Powell; general committee, Messrs W. J. Williams, T, it. W illiams, Edward Williams, 11. Jeffreys, Ellis Jones, Griffith Jones, aud Maurice Jones. Alr John Williams, the newly elected president, having first thanked the members present for the houour they had conferred upon him in electing him to be their president for the ensuing year then delivered a short but very interesting inaugural address, and the.foruial business of the evening being ended, the me- ting then became solely oneof pleasure, and music, recitation), &c ocetipiett the remainder of the evening. The party broke up soon after ten o'clock, all being highly gratified with the pro- ceedings.

THE SOCIAL SCIENCE CONGRESS AT BIR MINGHAM, AND EDUCATION IN WALES. At this Congress Dr Nicholas, of London, was invited to read a paper ou Middle-Class Education in Wale." The paper was entirely takeu up with those aspects of Education in Wales in which that country presents peculiarities and ditlerences as compared with England. Especial attention was paid to endowments for educa- tional purposes, and it was shown that iu this respect Wales is placed at a great disadvantage as compared with Eoglaud. The endowed schools of Wales are fewer and more scantily endowed. Out of 782 schools visited and reported upon oy the recent Schools Inquiry Commission only thirty-four were found in Wales, or oue twenty- fourth of the whole and while the income of the 782 I s )IJOols amounted to more than i300,0n0 a year, the income of the thirty-four Welsh schools was only £ 4,ti93, or less than a sixty third part of the whole, although the population of Wales in 18(31 was more than a tttentietl4 part of that of England, In other words, for the same number of people, the middle class-endow- ments of the l'riucipality are less than one-third ,f t tiose of England. Moreover, for the higher style of education, represented in England by the great public schools of Eton, Harrow, Kugby, and seven others, to say nothing of the universities, there exists in Wales no provision whatever. Again, to glance at the comparative wealth of the best endowed schools in England aud Wales we find that in England there are thirty-two schools each with above X 1,000 a year endowmeut, fifteen with above X2,000, twelve with above e3,000, two with above £ 5,000 a year; and that the Birmingham (King Edward) Schcol has above £ 12,(100 a year, Dulwich £ 10,00U, Charterhouse X22 000, Christ's Hospital £ 5(i,u00 a year; but that in the l'riucipality there is not a single endow- ment above £ 1 ,()UU a year; only two, lieaumaris and Llanrwst, above ILBOU only three, Urecou, Llandovery, and Swausea, above iKoUU; while only three besides, ystrad Meurig, Ruthin, and Bangor, are so high as £ 3U0. But this poverty of present educational endowment in the Principality was uot to be taken as au iu,lex to the liberality of our forefathers. It is well known that much of the ecclesiastical and monastic wealth of Wales was in the time of the Tudor and other dynasties trans- ferred to England, and that for the pillage of these days no compensation has yet been made. U util the rise oi the great iron and coal industries within the present ceu- tury, and the more recent introduction of railways, this country had remained comparatively poor, and nothing had been done to add to the old endowments of the six. teenth and seventeenth centuries, when a wave of edu- cation zeal swept across the whole of England and seut its last ripples even over Wales. The case of Wales was peculiar as it respected the bearing of middle-class education on the language of the people. Time was when rulers attempted summarily to change by force the language of Wales, but the method failed. You cannot force the Welshman to anything, especially in the direction of language. Make clear to his perception the advantage of change, and he will adopt it. The people of II ales now sec that a good knowledge of Eng- lish is essential to the advancement of their sons, ami- no eirt)rt is spared to acquire the English tcngue. liut a good knowledge of English to a people speaking an- other vernacular is only to be gained by eaily indoctri- nation and practice, and this can only be secured by good middle class schools. With the other great teach- ers of the day—commerce, railways, elementary schoo's, and contact with England, let the middle-class school be set down in every town, village, and populous district of the Principality. The rapid growth of the middle class iu Wiles deserved attention. This growth was greater iu comparison than in England. The middle class itself was comparatively greater; the destitute class was smaller than in England. Lords and paupers, millionaires and beggars were rare in Wales. The great, prosperous middle class was wide and vast, and d;.ily becoming more so. Glamorganshire in the last two centuries showed a vaster iucrease than any other county in the kingdom, the metropolitan counties excepted. Great works and industries were rising in the Principality, which made it a most important and vital part of the realm. But great schools were not rising. Schools must rise, and colleges too. Many of the old grammar schools were more dead than ever—some had shut their doors. There were many old towns where no endowment for education existed, such as Aberystwyth, Tenby, Milford, Neath, Carnarvon, Holyhead, Newtown, Mold, Llanidloes and several new towns, recently risen, in similar condition, such as Merthyr, with a population of 80,000, Cardiff, population 32,000, Llan- elly, Pembroke Dock, Aberdare, Llandudno, Rhyl, in most of which the English is the prevailing language, and all of which stand in pressing need of secondary schools which shall be up to the requirements of the times. It was clear that no. part of the kingdom stood in so great need as Wales, and no part promised ampler fruits, if good schools wecu once established. The poo- pie had a taste for knowledge. They were ambitious of excelling and improving. Their habits were frugal and industrious. Their willd was awake aud active. Good schools, such as were proposed to be established by the. lfoyal Commissi.^ in all parts of the country would b'j an immense Massing to Wales. Everywhere Scotchman to >k t!io lent, and the reason V.ms, that Scotland h id for three hundred years been rich in means of eht- | citii>n — rieliur than E.inland he.s' lf. W.dc-s, with a quieker and not less gifted intellect, had been left behind—without a literature known to the world, with iut a hand io the fine arts, without, a school of thought, dumb in the halls of science, philosophy, and jurisprudence, and with ouly a few voices of command- ing power in the senate. The nineteenth century had discovered and turned to good the mineral treasures of the Principality — would the nineteeth century also make the discovery that there existed in that sauie region a vast accumulation of intellectual wealth, as yet undeveloped aud capable of being turned to the highest account ? The paper, of which the above is a mere abstract, was well received, aud an interesting discussion fol- lowed.

The Revolutionary Junta of Seville haR authorisotl the Minister of the United States to build a Protestant Church iu that city: ANOTIIKB RAILWAY COT.LTSION.-Oll Wednesday morning the London and North Western train, due at Manchester at half-past ten, came into collision at Diggle tunnel, near Huddersfield, and six or seven persons re- ceived very serious injuries. Last Friday two girls about seventeen years of age, and both servants out of place, leaped into the Regent s Canal from the Queen's road-bridge, Dalston, locked in each other's arms, and were drowned. Their motive in self destruction does not seem at all apparent. The jury of couise returned a verdict of Temporary In- sanity." Two other girls wituessed the insane act, and first coolly takiug the hats and jackets which the two girls, who had drowned themselves, had thrown off, as well as a purse containiug coppers, ran away. The report of the Royal Commission appointed to consider t.he possibility of establishing an international coinage has been issued. The Commissioners discuss the questions referred to them at great length. They decline to recommend the supersession of the English sovereign by a gold piece worth twenty-five francs, and they are of opinion that, with a view to the general interest of the commerce of the world, the English sovereign and pouurl might form a convenient basis fur international currency. In the course of Mr Gladstone's recent stump speeches, he seems to have regretted that the cause of the Reform Bill passing was the pulling down of the Park railings by the mob. Such great measures should be parsed promptly and generously, because seeu to be good, not at the mutterings of popular diôcoatent, which deprived the boon of efficacy and grace. The Deau of Carlisle has issued a lengthened aldress to the electors oi the Border City, calling upon them to rally round the church, and to support the Conservative candidate at the forthcoming election. l)r Close tells the constituency that each individual vote will affect the principle whether an Estiblished Chllrch shall exist, aud with this issue before them he entreats the voters of Carlisle not to cast to the winds the wisdom and the heritage" which they have received from their fathers. The Dean declares that a nation without a State Church is a godless people and in speaking more particularly of the Kstablislnneut ill Ireland, he mail.tains that she is the church of the truth, aud that if she has not enlarged her borders, the British government is chiefly to blame, for it has always frowned on proselytising in every shape. He denounces Mr Gladstone's proposal as "an unprin- cipled robbery of a faithful and unoffending Church," I and looks to the House of Lords to stand between her M ijec y a id such an :n-.ulting proposition."

Barnes, Esq., Richard George Jebb, Esq., John Carstail's Jones, Esq., Samuel Parr Lynes, Esq., William Corbet Yale, Esq., Hev. William Veuables Williams. APPLICATION FOR A HORBS AND CART. Mr Moulsdaie applied to the court tor inspector nam- uioud to be allowed a horse and cart for the purpose chiefly uf moving about the weights and measures.— Captain Pauton objected to the expense, and recommen- dect that when a conveyance is wanted it should be liirod. The Chairman took a similar view, and recom- mended the allowance of an annual sum in lieu of a horse and cart.- Inspector Hammond said the people in Llanrwst would not hire to the police; they did not like the police because they did their duty.—It was agreed to allow All5 by a majority of 18 to 4. APPLICATION FOR A POLICEMAN. Colonel Biddulph presented a petition asking for a policeman to be stationed at Vron Cysyllte. He said the district was very well known to him, and he could say the statements of the petition were true. There were large lime works, and the population had of late very much increased, and now numbered about 2uOO. It was rather a riotous place, and an attempt had been made lately upon a powder magazine, where there were teu tuns of guupowder. The place was situate midway between Chirk and LlaugoHen, about three miles from both.—After Home discussion, the chief constable was directed to remove one of the Llangollen men there.— Colonel liiddulph gave notice that he should move for the appointmeut of an additional officer next quarter sessions. LLANDDOIAS. A petition was read from Llanddulas asking that their police officer should not. be removed to Pensarn. The Chairman read a letter from General Cartwright disap- proving of the withdrawal of meu from their district for uioie thau a day or two. THE CHIEF CONSTABLE AND THE TWO 11REAKSMEN. The, Ctiuiruian read a letter Irom Ueneral Curtwrignt, iu which he stated that having attended the railway in- vestigation at Abergele he felt bound to make some in" quiries as to the way the police bad acted. Having obtained the best information he could, be had come to the decision that the police had done their utmost to execute the warrants. What they ought to have done further was to communicate with the chief constables of the adjúiuing co untie., and also call into requisition the electric wires. Having always considered the force efficient iu the detection of crime, he hadgreat pleasure in bearing testimony to that continued efficiency.—The chief constable said that some remarks were made, which were very unfair and untrue, aud the gentleman that made them had withdrawn them, would be seen by a statement in the 7'imes of the 14th of September. As to using tbe wires he said there was no necessity for that as the men were advertised all through the kingdom, From a discussion which followed it appeared that there was no charge agaiust the chief constable nor any blame attachable to him. EXPENSES OF THE ABKROELB INQUEST. A numWer of bills were read bearing upou this subject. Messrs Lloyd Williams and U uderwood for making a map of the scene of the accident, £ 10 10s.; Mr Ellis Eyton acting as assessor, eight days at five guineas per day, J:42 expenses, £ 18 8s. Mr R. Griffith, surgeon, making post mortem at the charuel house, zC33 3s.; at- teiidiug iiique-it X5 5,i. Mr It Jones, surgeou, making post mortem, £ 33 attending inquest, £ 1 4s.; Mr P. Lloyd Davies's bill, £ 45 3s.; expenses of room for holding inquest at 30s. per day and other iiiin,irie.,3, ct4 0s. 5d. Total, £ HUt) 3s. od. There were also some other small items read uiit.-The coroner, Mr Pieice, said he instructed one surgeon only, and he agreed with him to do the work for .t;5, but he did the work so well in cla sifying the bodies and other things, that he odered him another £ 5 out of his own pocket, but he refused it.-lt was agreed to alluw teu pounds. EXPLIESSION OF CONFIDENCE IN THE CORONER, DR. PIERCE. The Chairman said he hoped he should carry the court with him while he made a few remarks upon the Abergele inquest, and the unprecedented difficulty in which the coroner had been involved. They had had Dr. Pierce iu the office of coroner for a great number of years, aud he as chairman could sincerely testify as to the fair and able manner iu which he had alwayi performed his duties. To his knowledge he had fre. quently deprived himself of his fees when on being seut for to a place he found an inquest was unnecessary. He thought the way he had beeu-he was going to say bullied—the way he had been assailed- -called for some expression oi opinion on their part. No doubt great allowat.ee was.to be made for the feelings of the surviv- ing friends who said what they did hastily, and some of them since had avowed their regret. He begged to propose that they gave expression to a vote of confidence in the ability and integrity of the coronor. He thought it would not be more than he deserved. He was a most conscientious man, aud did a deal of work for his miserable renumeiation. Colonel liiddulph said he fully concurred in what the chairman had stated. Mr Pierce had to conduct his inquiries under the most trying circumstances that ever occurred in this country. Finding th" difficulties uf the case, and that he required legal assistance, he obtained that assistance, and the inquiry was couducted in such a way as to satisfy all parties concerned. He thought that court was called upon to mark their seiise of the way the inquiry had been conducted, aud the satisfactory conclusion arrived at, For that reason he had great pleasure ill seconding the motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr Pierce thanked the court for their kind expression of sympathy and eoulideuce, aul he took the oppor- tunity of thanking tlieui for the kindness he had always received at their hand during the 26 years he had been coroner. ADDITIONAL POLLING PLACES. Mr John J OLles, solicitor, applied to the court for the appointment of additional polling places for the county, and suggested Adwy'r Clawdd, Rnos or Ruaboii, and Cefu Mawr. J he court generally appeared to see the necessity for additional accommodation, and promised to take the matter into their consideration next Quarter Sessions. nOLT BRIDGE. Sir Watkin laid before the court the grievance so long cojiplaiued of by the inhabitants of Ilolt of having tu repair their own bridge aud contribute towards the repairs uf all the other bridges iu the country. He was supported by Mr Fitzhugh, Mr C. S. Mainwaring, and other wagibtrates and it was ordered that in future the bridge be repaired by the county like the other bridges. UGLINESS OF THE NEW CJAOL. Mr Cornwallis West complained of one portion of the new gaol being an extremely ugly structure. As the building was to cost from eight to teu thousand pounds, he thought they ought to have something that wou d not be an eye-sore to the whole neighbourhood. What they had now disfigured the whole locality. He dèd not say so because it injured him, which it certainly did, but he was really sorry to see such a bad monument of the bad taste of the county in t!ie year 1868. He was told that it could be altered for J;150, and he was wil- ling to subscribe X50 out of his own pocket if the county would do the rest. Mr J ames Maurice spoke in favour of the alteration, and the clatter was referred to the gaol committee. SANtTAKYSTATNOFTUHOLDQAOL. Dr. Jones, medical officer to tha county gaol, attended to make a representation of the bad sanitary condition of the old gaol. Mr Maurice preaaed the couuty surveyor to make some definite statement when the new gaol would be ready for th'i iuspector to come down. The Surveyor said it would be impossible to state that. Some of the cells are ready now. A long conversation ensued, which ended in it being agreed to write to the inspector to enquire whether he would inspect the portion that was tinished, so that some of the prisoners might be removed. The following reports were read :— CHIEF CONSTABLE'S RBPOBT. I have the honour to lay before the court my general quarterly report, ending the 2'Jth <l»y of September.

Much of the criiiie voinijilt- ted in the county is to be attributed to vagrancy, which is great- ly on the Increase. Eleven thousand, two hundred, and fifty- four tramps were relieved by the police during the year, more than the previous year. The force has been recently in- spected by Lieutenaut-Ueneral Cartwright, who expressed him- self satisfied in all respects. No change has taken place since my last report,—the strength of the force is complete. I beg to apply to the court for an order for the clothing for the ensuing year. I have to present to the court the annual returns required by the Secretary of state in conformity with the 19tli and 20th Vict- cap (39 Daily account of constables and distribution of the force for the months of July, August, and September are hereto annexed. JOHN PEXMAW. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. Report of John Bradshaw, Inspector of weights aud measures, for the year euding Sept. 29th, 1868. To the Chairman of General Quarter Sessions for the County of Denbigh. SIR, -I beg to report for the information of the court that during the year, 47^3 weights, and 76 measures, making & total of 550^ have been brought to me for adjustnier.t and stamping. Out of that number 2971 were adjusted and stamped. The fees for stamping amounted to £ 10 lis. 9Jd. 118 weights were con- demned being worn out, and -¿4U wore right, for which no fees were clurged 48 complaints have been made against persons for having in their possession unjust balances and weights, and convictions followed in each case, the penalties amounting to £ ltfos. 6d. Fourteen of these persons having bein previously convicted. The offences are thus described, unjust balances and weights 11 unjust balances 16 unjust weights 1-i onehund,ed and five weights have been selze,l, tha defie.eney of which wa, 1^4 oz., and the deficiency in the balances was 4 lb 7 oz., making a total of 0 lbs 3$02. ith reference to the deficiency in the weights I am inclined to believu that that occurs from neglect, but with the balance 1 am of a very different opinion, Any person, however unjust, must know if their balances are right. The system with deficient balances is that a weight is always kept in the weight scaie to kcolJ it down. Take that out then goei down the seliiug scale with a great draught. At one shop where coals were retailed I found a ..U lb weight in the scale. Upon taking that out tne idling scale wont down Stibs draught, that is, against the purchaser. At a small provision sli, p the flour scales 1 found in the same way 2J oz. against the purchaser. At another It oz., and at four others oz. against the purchaser. I beg to tender my claim for five days expenses in inspecting the Hundred of Bronill-ld, as per county allowance, and to remain, sir, your obedient servant, JOHN I'RADHHAW. COUNTY IND POLICE BATHS.
