NOT Legal.—Mary Edwards, of Khostyllen, was in court to press a charge against Elizabeth Edwards, of the same place, of robbing her garden. The defendant did not attend, as the summons was served upon her on Sunday evening by P.C.

After signing one or two licences which had been left over from the previous sessions, the business of the court was terminated.

After the Town Clerk had referred to the Act and the law as related to the requirement of a ceitain number of police to a cer- tain population, the meeting seemed to be unanimous in their opinion that it would he better to join the county. A committee was formed of the following gentlemen, to put it iiitc* practice, viz. :-the Mayor, Mr. Edwaid Griffith, lr. Copner Wynne Edwards, Mr. Gold Ed- wards, Mr. Richard Owen, and Mr. J. Parry Jones. A vote of thanks was passed to the Rev. Dr. Briscoe for a r presentation of an old map of Denbigh town 1 oivity, by Speed.

COTTAGERS' HORTICULTURAL STIO, i In our report of this <dn>x v.i::h took pliee 0:1 P,.i last, we were compelled to onit several interestin" p > ticulars and details, in consequence of our having io Lr to press within an lz,.iir or two a!ter the ju tjfeg had rnide their award. There were also ene or errors is to names which we shall now cuvct. Amongst the list of who favoured the show with a vaiiety of beautiful floral devices, &c" in addition to those reported hy its, were the Misses Biddulpli, of ChirkCastle.whoalso honoured the meeting wiihtitpirprr- sence. Col. Bid(lull-,i was unfoitunatelv absent, having gone on a tour in Germany for the restoration of his health after the fatigues of the Session. Amongst the contributors to the show not mentioned by us was the name of Mr. William Jenkins,, of Durg- hill, Herefordshire, gardener to Col. Biddulph, wi-o ex- hibited some very fine specimens of hops, apples, and cut flowers. Mr. Brown, of Chirk Castle gardens, exhibited u verv novc-I vegetable called the New Vegetable Marrow" which is intended to be used as a substitute, to some ex- tent, of the potato It comes from Boston, in America,' and is very large, the three specimens exhibited by Mr. Brown weighing each from 8lbs to lOlbs. Mr. Henderson, of Birkenhead, exhibited a new :n- vention, which bids fair, in our opinion, to be very use- ful. It is all iron broom head, which is so constructed that birch or grig" can be expeditiously put in or out of it by any one. however unaccustomed to the besom- making art. It is a very neat and useful contrivance. Mr. Jones, of Chirk, in addition to the device of "Love" in the avenue at the entrance into the field, also showed two antique specimens of em broidery said to be worked in the 15th century, by a relation (if hi!i. In front of the tent were placed two l;>.r;e flags sun- plied by Colonel Biddulph and T. Barnes. Esq. oil the former was inscribed Prosperity to the Chirk Cottagers' Horticultural Show," and on the bttn the same, sub- stituting the word St. Maitir.V tor Chirk." There were a great number of mottoes placed in diifer.-nt parts of the tent appropriate to the occasion, one heiu"<r tt. the effect that the parishes of Chirk and St. Martin* should ever remain united (in the matter o! the shuw.) Hie coats of arms raemioiu-d in our lasi report xvns supplied by Mr. Goodby, of Shrewsbui y, and were placed at regular intervals almu; the central table, there- by adding much to the gencia! etfei t. Perhaps, (he most curious "device" was a correct model of tne Quinta Garden, placed in the immediate front oI the tent, executed by Mr. Porter, of the Quinta, frfJlII II dl'igll IIInde by Mr Henderson, landscape gar- den designer, Birkenhead. The model was verv lient and a little fountain playing in the centre, (supplied with «:.t-r from it tank outside the tent.) was much a imiied. Amongst the other curiosities exliil)iteil w;is a 'i-v(- (it bees in a glass case, through which every movement of the^e busy little workers tould hI' plainly seen. There was also a device of {lowers in the form of an urn by Mr. Gcthing, which attracted much attention, and was greatly admired. In the absence ot Colonel Biddulph, T. BarIlP", Esq., of the Quanta, nad the list of t,iu I'tize Winners, and afiei wards s hortly addressed ihe company, amongst other things saying that these kind of s hows wore calculated to be of much benefit to the cottagers, and expressing a hope that next year there wouid he a larger show of flowers from the eotlagers. Tne speech was louliy cheered, aud a vote of thanks moveu by G. II. Whalley, E: q to Mr. Barnes for his general kindness and philanvhrophy, was cairicd with ac- clamation. I''iiU\TA. 00 stated that rr. Porter of the Quinta, was one of the judges f*,i- t'!e Gardens and the Cottaire. The error was made in the hurry If copying-it .should have been "Mr. Winter, of the Quinta." Amongst the visitors is iiiserterl r, q. Rogers, of the AV/r tihop, and party." It should have been Airs. Rogers, o! tie. A civ Hull, and party." HA I.A.

Her name is L iura Thomas, and she has a son (Cadwaladr Thomas) of tlie patriarchal age of 70, and also a daughter 83. The united ages of tlie mother, daughter, and son, therefore, amount 10 II., less than 271 years-a fact which speaks volumes in favoui 01" the salubrity of the mountain districts of Wales. -r-.

The case was fully proved by police-officers Bowen and Goodhall, who visited the house in company thrice on the night in question. In his defence it was urged tha' the parties had come into his house in a state of intoxication. This being the second offence he was fined £ 6 and 10s. 6d. costs. Aggravatkd Assault ox A police-constaislk ox THE Apprehension OF A DESHnEK.—Wm. WHliams, alias Fearney, a native of Oswestry, was charged with having deserted from the 23rd regiment of foot, then at Portsmouth, and also with having violently assaulted police-officer Thomas Jones, of the county constabulary, when apprehending him for the desertion.—Thos. Jones, P.C., upon oath stated that on Saturday morning last he was proceeding, in company with police-officer Bowen, towards Welshampton, respecting a horse which had been stolen from that place a day or two previous, and when near to Xewton he saw a man approaching, but who, on perceiving them, bolted into an adjacent wood. Bowen enquired who that fellow was,—he answered it was Will Fearney, a deserter from the Welsh Fusileers they lost sight of him for an houand a half, but at length found him lying in a ditch, covered over with briars. Bowen called him out, but he did not seem disposed to stir he laid hold of him and charged him with being a deser- ter- Prisoner then held up an open knife. Witness said —Bill do not use that, as it will be worse for you if you do-loose it. He said, no you I won't. On at- tempting to take him he struck at Jones with the knife, but the blows were stopped by Bowen with his stick, al- though he cut him slightly 011 the hands; he &lso struck at his breast but the knife bent and it did not hurt him. Witness then succeeded in laying hold of the hand in which the knife was, but lie contrived to pass it into the other, and said he would cut his (Jones's) heart and guts out before he would let go his knife. They were scuffling until Bowen, himself, and prisoner got down to- gether, when witness succeeded in getting the knife from him. He (Jones) was then in a kneeling position and prisoner seized him by the private parts. He was in sad pain and was unable to walk home that night in coiiccquence, and was still suffering from it. He had ap- prehended prisoner some years before on another charge. Prisoner struck him on the present occasion on the head and kicked him violently. Bowen and witness bound prisoner hand and foot in consequence of his violence, and they brought him on a truck to Ellesmere lock-up. Police-officer Bowen confirmed the statement in every particular of his brother officer, and spoke also of the violent conduct of the prisoner since his incarceration in the Ellesmere lock-up, and stated that he was obliged to keep him chained, as lie bad frequently declared he would do for somebody. He had been fully described in the Hue and Cry as a deserter.Ile was fully committed to take his trial for the assault at the ensuing quarter ses- sions at Shrewsbury.—A surgeon, J. E. Watson, Esq., was called on to examine the prisoner, as to his fitness for service, when he declared him fit in every respect. This was for the satisfaction of the Secretary at War. Charge OF House Stealing. -Henry Jones, of Ches- ter, was charged with having stolen a horse pony, ot the value of 412. the property of John Bowen, of Welsh- hampton, on the night of the 3rd inst.—Henr}' Hinton, waggoner to John Bowen, deposed that on Thursday night last he put the pony in a field at Welshampton with the other horses, and between five and six o'clock next morning be missed the pony, 011 which he informed his master, who at once proceeded to make the necessary enquiries about him. He did not know where the pri- soner lived. lie had never seen him about the neigh- bourhood. He had seen the pony that day at the Lion in tUi toa,ii; is was the same pony.—Charles Roberts, swoi n,—1 am a dealer in iron and fencin stone and lime, at the Pant, near Llanymyneeh. Last Friday morning about 10 o'clock, I was standing near my house when I saw the prisoner coming down the road with a pouy. J asked him whose pony it was,—he said it was his own. On my asking him he said he did nut miud selling him he aske¡] £12 for him. I said he must be chaffing. 1 offered him jL7 hut lie would not take less than £ S. He told me the pony wus 0 or JO years old. I suspected ail was not light. I asked the prisoner to let me ride the pony I fetched my saddle and bridle and mounted him told the prisoner 1 should not be long away. I went straight in search of P.C. Jones, of Llyncljs, whom I afterwards found at Oswestry. He came back with me to tile Ptnt. We found the prisoner waiting for mo at the Powis Arms. I said perhaps you will think me ion", but I have been hot-roving money to pay you. I siid the pony was not woi lb £ 7, but I would give him :t:; j I bought him for £ (!. Tasked where he brought the pliny irom,—ho said Welshampton. lie gave me a I written warranty; I produce it. lie said he had the I pony from his father-in-law.

He said that he had b wife and two children. The pony, he told me, he had ( ir his father-in-law, William Wil- liams, of Hamptoii-bank. On the road to the Oswestry lock-up. he said he did hot know that I w;-s a policeman or <? he should not have told so many lies He told me his name was Henry Joii.i (not Edwards), ;:nd that his father-in-law was John Bowen, whose pony i. was, and that the reason he took the pony was because he ov-pil a sum of ition,,v, iii(i tilat he c-uld not get. it from his father-in-law. Witness duly cautioned prisoner Alien he made this communication to him. Committed OSWKSTKY. y THE Baptist Chapf.i,.—The Rev. J). Crutnpron, the Baptist Minister of this town, has temoved to Salendine *»ook, near lluddersfiohl, Yoikshire, there to preside over the Particular Baptist church. Mr. Crumpton has laboured with much zeal and untiling energy during the time he has resided in Oswestry, and was greatly re- spected, not only hy the members of his own chapel" hut by those ot the other dis-cnticg denomination-, whom t all times he was ready t,) aid and assist whenever an op- portunity presented itself. Oswestry and Xkwtown- Raii.way.—An extraor- dinary meeting of the shareholders of this company was held in the Town Hall, Welshpool, on Friday last. Sir W. W. Wynn, Bar; M.P., in the chair. The object of the meeting wis to take into consideration the advisabi- lity of removing the offices of the company from Welch- pool to Oswestry, and Dr. It. Joilt,F, of Newtown, moved an([ It. X. Broujjhton, Esq., of Llanymyneeh, seconded a rtsolution to that effect. After several long and elo- quent addresses from several of the shareholders pr sent, tin: motion was in its iavour, an 1 1-tsi it, majority 21*1.

Agreed bv all tii- medi- cal profession who aie acquainted with vSe pia. e, and whose recommendations to the most d-duale constitu- tions, with the speedy recovery, in m.i-iv msla.tces and the undeniable fact of many that could not enjoy health in any other place, after repeated trials—<ome to places for bracing air, others to what, are considered mild and warm climates — o'.Fer in '.ucem -nis 111 favour of Rhyl, not only to the healthy, but t,) the weakest and most Ile- licate constitution. As a winter residence, none will be found to equal it, t:ie following being wurthy of note. That Rllyl is not visited with frost, snow, or funs, which arc so very preju lieial. The whole of last winter, where in England the snow was twelve inches deep, and indeed the surrounding country, Rhyl was free whilst its in- habitants and visitors could walk in the delight:ul sun- shine, and realise what is often to be viewed only in apa- norama. This can only be accounted for tha: liliyl, be- ingat the mouth of the beautiful Yale of Clwyd, and having on each side it the chain of mountains, which act as a conductor to the south wind, and with the saline atmos- phere of the broad Atlantic ocean meeting at this point, makes it as before described, and sheltered by these beau- tiful mountains from the cold east winds, which are so very obnoxious to the English constitution. Ithyl being under the Health of Towns' Act, is well drained; the foundation Ivjing sand, the place is perfectly dry after the heaviest rain in half an hour The town also lighted with gas, makes it as cheerful by night as day. The sup- ply of fresh water cannot be surpassed, the strataiication being the new red sandstone. These things well eonsid- ered by all who are in search of health, and those who wish to preserve it, cannot fail to make lihyl one of the most important and desirable places for a winter resi- deuce.— Conrant.

Singular SUICIDE by Two BROrllERs.-On Wednes- ¡ day and Thursday week two sons of Air. John Adams, furniture broker, Devonshire-street, Sheffield, committed suicide under the tullowing eirculDsances :—The young- est of the two, Henry, about fifteen years old, was of a stubborn and ungenial disposition. On Wednesday after- noon his father corrected him for some fault with a box on the ear, and said, get out of the shop with thee." The! lad olieyed the injunction only too literally. He went away, and, in the course of the afternoon, met his sister, to whom he said, Tell my father I shall never como home any more." He was never seen alive again. Hia body was found in the canal near Blast Lane, on Monday morning. The other brother, William, was about 21 years old. lie was very sickly and unable to workwhich caused him to despoad greatly. On the dav following Henry's disappearance, Mr. Adams sent William with two sovereigns to pay a rate. The young man never re- turned, but on the following morning Mr Adams received a letter containing a receipt for the rate. In the envelope were also the following words, without signature, but in William's handwriting ;—" Money is ot no use to me. v .11 0 h" Yuu will never see me alive again. I have paid this." William's body was found on Tuesday last, drowned, t ne;,r Auereliii'e. The parents of the deceased youths are very respectable, and are not supposed to have behaved unkindly to them. The Extexte CoitniALE.— The Memorial Ilordelais, in the impression of the 31st eH., after a brief summary of the recent denlorabln massacres in India. Dublishea the following appeal to the French people :— All Christian hearts, without distinction of nationality, will sympathize with the suffering of their brethren in Ileiigal, and in the other provinces where the rebellion prevails, and wi" be ready to come forth with their aid. But we Frenchmen, who in recent and different cala- mities, especially at the time of the inundations of 1856, received such substantial proofs of British sympathy,— we who fought and suffered side by side with the English in the late Crimean war,—we hold it as our duty to be the first to come forward to offer help to those of our friends and allies who are in misfoitune. We therefore express the wish that a public subscription may be open- ed without delay to receive the gifts of those who are desirous of giving a proof of their sympathy for the un- happy victims of the Indian insurrection. At the head of this list we doubt not will appear the names of the most august personages and of the highest functionaries. All the notabilities of the country will subscribe. There' is not a town in France which will not make it a point tie ho/weur to appear in the list, and we need not add that the city of Bordeaux will figure among the first. It appears that there is a circumlocution office in Australia as well as in England. The Ballarat Star haa the followiii,, The deputy-registrar at Amherst being in want of a small supply of ink, intimated the same to the authorities at Melbourne, who sent him a bottle by the Telegraph line of coaches. He was charged 5a. carriage for the parcel. The price of a similar bottle of ink on the spot is half-a-crown." The Essex Herald says :—Major Warburton, M. P., has taken advantage of a brief visit to Harwich to de- liver a lecture, at the National School-room, on Her- oism."

New Catholic Ciiuiteii.Ifeii have been employed for the last few days in clearing away the rubbish and levelling the ground around the new Roman Catholic Church, and masons are at work laying the stones upon which will be placed the ornamental railing in front. The building, since the removal of the unsightly fence and other partial inprovements just effected, already ap- pears to much greater advantage, and when the railing is completed in unison with the general design and ornate character of the building, the Roman Catholic Church will be the most beautiful object amongst the numerous edifices that have lately sprung up on the road to the railway station. St. Mark's CHUJlCII.- The Builder for Saturday last contains a beautiful engraving of St. Mark's Church, now in course of erection in this town. From a descriptive account accompanying the sketch we learn that the tower, which is 56 feet at the base, when completed, in. cluding the spire, will ho 200 feet high. The timber of the roof, and all the internal and external woodwork, is to be stained a light oak colour. The pulpit will be executed in Bath stone. The floors are to be laid with black and red Staffordshire tiles. The entire cost will be about 26,000 and the church will be capable of accom- modating 800 persons. It is expected the whole of the work will be completed about the close of next Spring or the commencement of the Summer. A Pketty Poxy.—In a field on the road leading from Wrexham to Bersham may be seen a pony which, in regard to size and colour, is quite a euriositv. He stands about thirty-six inches high, and is a beautiful piebald- a chesnut and white. We are informed that this mina- ture horse belongs to Mr. Hengler's circus, and, being in a delicate state of health when the company was in Wrexham a few weeks ago, he has been left to rusticate for a feiv months in the green pastures, in order to re cruit his strength and enable him to perform with more vigour the serio-comic part which falls to his lot in the equestrian drama of life. The little fellow is very docile and sociable, and spends a good deal of his time by the gate fraternising with the passers by; his habits leading him to prefer the company he meets with at this point to the monotonous intercomse of the two cows who appear to be his only companions, and who pass the day in grazing and chewing their cuds. In consideration of his diminutive size and pioportionatelv small appetite our little hero is boarded and lodged for 2s. per week. A Genuine BLOOMElt.There is now in the gar- den of Captain M'Coy, of King-street, in this town, a small Pear tree in full blossom, it having bloomed at the usual^ime in the Spring. The tree, we understand, was had from France, and is quite young. In close proxi- mity to the pear tree is a great floral curiosity. In the latter end of July or the beginning of the last month, Capt. M'Coy budded a rose on a wild-brier stock, and strange to say, it is now full of blossom buds, which will be unfolded in a few days. This is successful budding and no mistake! We should be glad if some of our scientific correspondents would explain the phenomonon of the pear tree, far although such occasional freaks of Nature are recorded, we never chanced to meet with any ttemptat explanation. We have an etfeet-butnota cause. Cricket Match between the Wrexham AXD OSWESTRY Clubs.—This match came off on Saturday last on the grounds at the Turf Tavern, Wrexham. It was looked forward to wiih considerable anxiety, inas- much as at the previous match played at Oswestry, the Oswestrians won rather cleverly. On this occasion the latter were reinforced by four gentlemen not members of their club, viz., Mr. Fletcher, of Shrewsbury, Mr. Worral, of Harrow School, a companion from the same school, and a gentleman from Montgomeryshire. The bowlers on the AVrexham side were -Mr. II. Hughes, and Mr G. Barrntt on that of Oswestry, Mr. Fletcher, and Mr. Worral. Both the bowling and fielding were very good on both sides, and to this may be fairly attributed the smallness of the several scores. After an interesting and spirited game, in which every member exerted him- ¿ -L"1L co. sett to tHe utmost to secure tue nonour oi ttie victory to his own club, the Wrcxhamites eventually won with three wickets to go down. After the uiatch was conclud- ed, the members and their friends retired to the Turf Tavern, when a first-c-lass dinner was served up to them by Mr. and Mrs. Whittaker, the respected host and host- ess, in their usual excellent style, F. Kewley. Esq., presiding, the vice-chair being filled by R. Kewley, Esq. A great variety of toasts were given during the evening, interspersed with some very excellent singing, principally by the gentlemen of the "Wrexham Club, ivh, seemed in first-rate tune by reason of their victory, we suppose, and sung like rrichet-ers. Altogether a most pleasant and social evening was spent, many of the Oswestry gentle- men stopping until the last train. The following is the score:— OSNVFSTILY. 1st Inniups. 2nd Innings.

He says :-Ipiie iliveiition is of three kinds, viz,— electricity, chemical affinity, and draught advices. By chemical affinity, the fire damp is absorbed by muriatic acid, which cost Id per lb. in carboy s, and is offered by a manufacturer at X2 10s. per ton. Muriatic acid is principally oxygen, the healhty gas of the atmosphere, and which neutralizes and absorbs the fire damp in the mine, and a substance is formed (sal ammoniac) which more than repavs the cost of the acid. In mines where there is much of fire damp, a little additional super-oside of manganese, and a gentle heat, applied underneath the basin containing the muriatic acid, absorbs the fire damp and renders themine safe aud agreeable and the mine, by regularity in supply is us healthy at the bottom as on the bank. An electric battery proves the mine, to know whether it be dangerous, every morning oil enter- ing, &c. Choke damp is absorbed by a little lime. The preceedino- invention is successful, and is now in general use in these districts. BETCR? OF ?tR. AND ?1M.

I RUABON CHARITIES. I KOBINSOX'S AXD DAVIF.S'S ALMSHOUSES. I The second estate, bequeathed for the purposes of the almshouses and the clothing of six poor children of the grammar-school, is situated in the parish of Wrexham consisting of eight parcels, together 41a. lR. 6r., let to John Parsonage at a yearly rent of LIOO. He holds under a lease for 10 years, determinable at the expiration of five, at his option: two years had expired in 1836. There are no buildings on the estate. The lease was granted by the vicar, and the rent is paid quarterly to r. Bagley, the schoolmaster, who has had the manage- ment at a small salary during 11 yeal s The rent has undcrgone considerable reduction, it having been let at zel 60. The tenant, however, failed, and the present rent is reckoned high. In 1826 a sum of S204 19s. lid., in part the produce of a sale of timber, and the rest being accumulated rents, was received from Mr Lloyd, the banker. On the 30th of April, in the same year, X200 of this was invested on the Ruabon turnpike-trust, for which thp _1. -.1- AUL- LLI(! re-paymetli, witia in- trest, at five per cent. In 1833 the almshouses were thoroughly repaired, at a cost of Cl47 17s. 10d., to de- fray which £ 100 was withdrawn from the turnpike-trust; the remainder was made up of accumulations of rents and small balances in hand. Additional almshouses have been built, and the former ones augmented in pursuance of the following donations made by the Rev. Richard Davies. By indentures of lease and re-lease, bearing date the 20th and 21st of March 1739, (enrolled in Chancery,) and m-Kle between the Rev. Thomas Holland, of Marchwiel, clerk, of the one part, and the Ilev. Richard Davies, clerk, vicar of Ruabon, of the other part, taking notice that the said Richard Davies, intended to build, at his own ex- pense, four new almshouses at Ruabon aforesaid and in order to endow the same and to make competent provi- sion and maintenance for four poor persons to dwell therein, he had with his own money purchased of the said Thomas Holland the several messuages, lands, &c., thereinafter mentioned, to and for the use of the said almshouses and poor for ever: it was witnessed that the said Thomas Holland, in consideration of £ 110 paid him by the said Richard Davies, granted, released, and con- firmed unto the latter and to his heirs, a messuage or tenement in Bridir, in the parish of Llanganhavel, in the county of Denbigh, and two parcels of land thereto be- longing, called Kae wrth y Tu, and Kae dur issa. Also two closes of land, with the appurtenances, called Yr Llthin and Y Traian; and all that cottage, toft, or site of a cottage, and garden thereunto belonging; and also a messuage or tenement with the appurtenances, in Bridir and the parish of Llanganhavel aforesaid, or either of them and several closes or parcels of meadow and pas- ture land, in Bridir and the parish of Llanganhavel afore- said, or either of them, and called Cae Carreg lJoyd, Cae Cae Meredith issa, Cae yr Llynn, Cae-tu-ueha, yrwu]L, I Cae tan y Llynn, Erw'y bottell, and Cae'r tu pob tu, all which premises were then in the several occupations :of Evans and Edward Rogers, and also all other the mn- ages, lands, tenements, and hereditaments whatsoever, in Bridir and the parish of Llanganhavel, purchased by the said Thomas Holland of Richard Lloyd, of St. Clement Danes, London and all pews and seats &-c., in the par- ish-church of Llanganhavel, and all ways. &c., to hold the same to the said Richard Davies, his heirs and assigns, to and for the uses and trusts after mentioned, which were to the use of the said Richard Davies, his heirs an d s- signs till the said new almshouses should be built, and thenceforth upon trust that he and his assigns, during his life, should pay and apply the rents, issues, and profits ot the premises for the use and maintenance of the inten- ded almshouses, and of such poor persons that he should think fit to place therein, in such manner as to him should seem meet and after his decease that his heirs and as- signs should pay and apply the rents, &-c., for the same purposes, in such manner and form as he should, by deed or deeds, or will duly executed and attested, direct and appoint; and in default thereof pay and apply the said rents, &c., for ever, in the manner following, viz, to each of the four poor persons who should from time to time dwell in the said four almshouses, the sum of Is. a-week du- ring their continuance therein, and also find and provide for them one warm comfortable gown, coat, or upper garment, at every Christmas, and with the surplus of the rents, &c., should make necessary repairs to the alms- houses, and also buy as much coal as the same would purchase over and above such repairs, and give and di- vide the same to and among such poor persons inhabi- ting any of the almshouses in the said parish of Ruabon, or such new-erected almshouses, as aforesaid, as the vicar of Ruabon for the time being should nominate and appoint; and if at any time thereafter the rents, &c., should not be sufficient for the repair of the said alms- houses, over and above the maintenance of the said poor inhabiting therein, then a proportional deduction of so much as should be necessary should be made out of the weekly sum or maintenance of each of the said poor per- sons for and towards those repairs. And the said Richard Davies thereby covenanted with the grantor that he, his heirs and assigns, would stand seised of the premises for the purposes above mentioned. And it was declared and agreed between them that the said Richard Davies during life, and afterwards the vicar f of Ruabon for the time being, should have the nomina- tion and placing of poor persons in the almshouses, on any vacancy, or as they should see occasion and also, at their will and pleasure, displace any whom he or they respectively should think unfit or unworthy to dwell therein. This estate consisted of two farms, now united one tenant, Thomas Williams, who holds from year to year, at a rent of £J2 per annum it contains, altogether, 30A. OR. 37P It is poorish land, amongst the hills in the Vale of Clwyd. There are a small farm-cottage and outbuildings. The rent is paid half-yearly to Mr. Bag- ley, as manager of the almshouses. The almshouses together received an augmentation from a bequest of £200, left by the Rev. Robert Saun- ders, to be at the disposal of the vicar. No copy of the Will was produced. These form the whole of the endowments of the dif- ferent almshouses, and the sum necessary for clothing the six poor children. The following is a summary £ s. d. Rent of the farm at Wrexham 100 0 0 Ditto at Llanganhavel 42 0 0 Interest of money secured on turnpike trust 5 0 0 Ditto of Mr. Saunders' legacy. 8 2 0 £155 2 0 Saunders' legacn-, X180, (after deducting the legacy duty), remains in the hands of the present vicar cf Ruabon (the Rev.

They consist of one room each on the ground-flour, with a yard common to them all, inhabited (at present) by five men and four women, chosen by the vicar from the parish at large; the other is occupied by a poor woman from Erbistock. There are always an equal number of men and women. The houses just mentioned occupy one line of an oblong; of the four additional, built in pursuance of the deed of Mr. Davies, two are placed at each end of the oblong they consist of the same number of rooms as the former, but are of somewhat larger dimensions. There are also four other houses placed on the side of the oblong, par- allel with Kobin-oii's, about the centre. Two of these were built in 1786, and it appears by the books that the expense was defrayed by one of the schoolmaster's predecessors, probably as the agent and manager; but it did not appear from whence the funds were procured. The other two, it was believed, were built by Mr. Jones, of Bellan Place, at his own cost butb(! did not endow them they are similar in their structure to the others. These eight are occupied by four men and four women, selected by the vicar in the same manner as the last. These different almspeople were kept distinct as regar- ded their pay or allowance till 1825, when they were all placed upon an equality, in this respect, by the vicar. This, however, was evidently unjust to the inmates of the first 14 houses, as the last brought no endowment with them and the vicar has since seen it in this light, and has resolved, after the death or removal of the four people in these houses, that no allowance shall be given to any future occupants, beyond the privilege of living there rent free. At the period of the inquiry, in 1836, two of them were vacant by death. (One house only was vacant when this account was given since then another has died; and when the other two become vacant, the allowance to the 14 original houses will be increased. ■Since 1833 they have been allowed to receive differ- cut articles of clothing, of which they stand most in need, instead of the gown or coat, directed by the founders. This takes place at Christmas, as well as the clothing the six boys in the grammar-school, who are provided with the articles named in Mr. Robinson's Will. These boys are selected for this purpose by the vicar. The fol- lowing is the mode of applying the income :— £ s. d. Clothing for the almspeople and the boys 20 0 0 Coals divided amongst the houses .8 8 0 The mastees salary 4 4 0 Seventeen almspeople, at 2s. 6d. a-week each 110 10 0 L143 2 0 The remainder ot the income, after paying certain small current expenses, is carried to account, and forms a surplus fund in hand, which is intended to meet any unforeseen expenses, repairs, &-c.

The jury rooms were quite tilled, one with the vegetable produc- tiuns of the cottages, and the other with flowers, fruit, &-c., of the gentry of the, neighbourhood. Many of the specimens exhibited would not have discredited a metro- politan show, and the producers had cause to be proud of their productions. The decorations were superb, and if possible surpassed those of last year. These were en- trusted to a committee of ladies and gentlemen, and the result of their labours did them infinite credit. There were honorary prizes given for flowers and fruits, and cottagers' prizes for flowers, fruit, and vegetables, and also for the best cultivated garden. Tiie judges were Air.

The platform of the Chester and Holyhead station, at Chester, has daily exhibited 11 scene of bustle and animation, by tourists pouring in for North Wales, which battles description. Birmingham, with the other iron districts, has contributed thousands of pas- sengers for Wales, while Manchester and the populous manufacturing districts surrounding it have been equally liberal in their contriutions to the towns and villages on the Welsh coast. Rhyl, a largely populated sea-bathing place on the Chester and Holyhead line, is crowded to excess, and within the last few days many instances have occurred in which tired and jaded visitors, after journey- ing a hundred or so miles, with all the excitement of travelling in quest of the picturesque, have been, doomed to get no better accoruodation in that town than the railway station coild afford, and compelled to go miles further to obtain a bed. The same demand has been experienced at Abergele, on the same coast, at the newly-formed town of Llandudno, situatecbat the foot of the (ireat Ormshead; at Conway, Bangor, Beaumaris, Carnarvon, &c., hotels are crammed in every quarter; iuns and boarding-houses are filled to repletion.
