Jones, Luther Jones, J. Davies, Har rison, and Bell. So highly was Mr. Li, ebi esteemed, that most ot the principal shops closed, anu pi.. „ suiences appeared with their blinds drawn down. Al the church gates the procession was met by the vicar anri the choir, the males bare-headed, and the femalei dressed in deep mourning, aid upon entering the church, the organ played the Dead March," in Saul, which fell on the ear most solemnly, and brought tears to many eyes. Then the 39 th Psalm (Batteshill, in A minor,) was mas- terly sung by the choir. The services were read by the vicar in a most impressive manner, and the tremulous voice of the reverend reader betrayed the depth of his feelings, whilst as a servant of Christ, and an intimate friend of the departed, he was reading the sublime burial service of the Church of England. After this was ever, the body was conveyed, headed by the choir, to its "final home," by the side of his affectionate wife (who died on the same day ten years ago), in the family vault in the new cemetery. May he rest in peace and may the blessings of heaven rest on his swert and amiable orphan. It is but right to state that Mr. J. W. Jones did his duties as undertaker in a most creditable manner. BANGOR. I SEVENTEEN HEAD OF CATTLE BURNT.—A most dis- tressing and extensive fire took place on Friday morning (yesterday), at Bangor Bank farm, in the occupation of Mr. Vickers. It appears that as Mr. Mulliner, was re- turning home from Wrexham, on his way to Koyton, about half-pist one in the morning, he saw in the dis. tanco the reflection of a large fire, and he immediately rode towards it, when he discovered the out-buildings and four stacks on fire, belonging to Bangor Bank farm. Mr. Mulliner immediately roused Mr. Vickers, and the inmates of the farm, but it was too late to save any of the valuable stock.—when Mr. Mulliner first arrived on the scene, the roof of the out-bdildings had fallen in, and the stacks were all simultaneously burning. We regret to add that the whole of the cattle, consisting of seven- teen head, were entirely destroyed, being burnt to a cinder, also three valuable horses, and two stacks of hay, one of wheat, one oats, and one beans. Mr. Walters, of Baagor, was early on the spot rendering most valu- able aid, so was Captain Panton. Mr. John Clay, of the Dongery, was exceedingly active, and everywhere staying the progress of the fire. It would bo promatij i e to state any conjectures as to the cause of this most de- plorablo fire, but there appears little doubt, it is the work of an iucenuiary. Mr. Vickers, wo are glad to state, is partially insured in the Boijal." 1- CAERGWRLE.
