SUMMARY. THERE are abundant signs that the season o' poetical apathy is passing away. Such a speech as that delivered at Ayies'ourv by Mr. DisraeJ, I on ecclesiastical affairs would n lone furnish mat- ter of many days' speculation. The iteforir. Conference at Leeds is a remarkable contrast to meetings of a similar nature held in times wont ny. it will be seen that the assembly on Wednes- day declined to accept anv shibboleth that would simply scatter its strength, and break up th<- new movement, and that it was resolved to hold a second conference in London sliorilv after the opening of the Session. ConsDicuous among the orators of the week has been Fir J. S. Tre lawny, whose speech to his constituents at Tavi- stock derives its chief interest from its ecclesias- tical element. The hon. baronet challenges th( friends of compromise to produce their plan next session. If they do not, or if Ministers refuse to take up this question, he engages to bring forward once more his Abolition Bill. It is curious that Mr. Disraeli as well as Sir J. Tre- lawny should agree in urging the Government to take up this question. Indeed, the conviction is now general that Ministers ought to bring in :< Bill, thjugh we cannot see how, after the record- ed opinions of most of the leading members o the Cabinet, such a measure could fall short 01 the abolition ot compulsory rates. The Conference of Reformers at Leeds was brought to a termination on Tuesday afternoon. The resolutions passed are of a moderate and temperate character, and will probably be ac- cepted by the majority of the progressive class The conference has decided thot the present sys- tem of representation is unjust, because it ex- cludes the great body of the working classes from the exercise ot the franchise and claims sucii an extension of the suffrage in counties and boroughs as will give the working classes a fair and ef- fectual representation in the House of Commons. The conference also asks for the ballot, and the right to return members to Parliament in ac- cordance with population and property. If other resolutions adopted by the meetintr are carrierl out, a conference of delegates will be held in the metropolis immediately after the opening of the next Parliamentary session, to dec de upon mea- sures proposed for the adoption of the House of Commons: The demonstrative meeting which followed the conference took place in the Town Hall in the evening. Mr E. Baines, M.P., pre- sided, and in opening the proceedings alluded to the great intellectual and moral progress which the working classes of this country have recently made. The meeting was also addressed by Mr. J. Heywood, formerly M.P. for North Lanca- shire, Mr. W. E. Forster, M.P., and Mr Leath- am, M.P. All America is listening for news from the sea," says Mr. Russell in allusion to the great naval expedition which appears to have narrowly escaped a severe gale, and to have arrived within some twenty-five miles of Charleston. All specu- lation as to the destination of this armada ap- pears to be premature. Should success follow in its wake, it is thought that General MTlellan —now the Federal commander-in-chief, in place of General Scott, resigned-will make an advance if in a condition to do so. But it is dotibt.-ul u his forces are adequate to an offensive move- ment, cooped up as they are in the wooded country in front of the Potomac. The General i and Mr. Secretary Cameron, however, promise largely-the former declaring that the war can- not be long although it may be desperate, with, perhaps, the latent conviction that victory, il achieved, will be speedily followed by negoti- ation. The rumour that the arbitration of the Emperor of Russia was to be invited by the Fed- eral Government has entirely died away. "Something must be done" is the order of the day at Washington, and ere long we may expect to hear that something has, at least, been at- tempted. Concurrent accounts leave the im- pression that President Lincoln and his col- leagues are anxious for a speedy pacific arrange- ment, if only success attend the Federal arms, and a basis for negotiation can be found- twc, rather important conditions. We have also the prospect of a war in the New World, not happily against our American cous- ins, but in the shape of an intervention in Mexi- co. The Governments of England, France, and Spain have signed a convention laying down the articles to regulate their joint expedition ior the redress of mutual grievances in that distracted country. Their ships of war are »' to seize and occupy the several fortresses and military po- sitions on the Mexican coast;" the three Power- engage to abstain from territorial acquisition ot interference with the internal government of the country and agree to the appointment of commission to determine all questions triiiiii. froni the distribution of the iiio-iey which nJa\ be obtained from Mexico. The co-operatiou the United Sutes Government in the joint enter- prise is to be invited, though not likely to b, obtained. Of course the Mexican ports can offei little resistance d.rectty to this formidable arma- ment, but an advanca upon the capital might hi- att-nucft v. ieli peril if not disaster, and is sureo engenderin g the strife and jealousy that ever ,t ttnd joint expeditions. Wnatever the result o 111Pe operations, there can be no doubt that thr Wouseot Ci.mnons will next session beciiled upon Lo meet a heavy bill for the expenses. Considerable sensation was created on Thurs- day by the arrival of the Confederate war steamer Nashville at Southampton. The arrival excited greater interest when it became known that the steamer had captured, off our coast, a tine Ameri- can vessel t-alled the Harvey Birch, and seized her as a prize. The Nashville took the crew of the Harvey Birch, and alter removing some valuables, they set fire to her, and burnt her to the water's edge. The capture took place, as it is asserted, in soundings of 75 fathoms water, lat. 49-8 N., long. 9'50 W., off the Nymph Hank, as appears by these marks, and midway in the line of St. George's Channel.

THE liEFORM CONFERENCE AT LEEDS. THE Reform Conference which has just termin- .1tcd at Leeds, seems to have been characterised throughout by great unanimity of sentiment and ijreat earnestness of purpose. The two hundred delegates who iiad assembled from different parts of the country, were men of character, position, and influence, and we believe an impulse has been given to the reform movement by this con- ference that will be felt for a long time to come. Wo extract the following observations on the conference and the Times from one of our daily contemporaries:—"As was to be expected, the Times sneers at the result of the Conference. It would not bc the Times if it did otherwise. No cause was ever espoused by that journal until it appeared pretty certain to win. It was, therefore, with no expectation of assistance from the Times that the working men of Leeds organised the Conference, which everybody outside of a Lon- don club can perceive has at this time a peculiar significance. There is, however, one challenge thrown out by the Times, which is most effectu- ally met by respondmg to it on the instant and in the briefest possible manner. Arguments,' I it says, derived from abstract justice and nu- merical equality, have little effect unless they be accompanied with some practical grievance. It Mr George Wilson or his friends could show that public affairs were going wrong, and that a re- duction of the franchise was the likeliest way to set them right, he would not lack attentive list- eners or eager supporters.' No. we will give the writer in the limes & practical gievance under which all Englishmen, but especially English working men, suffer. It is this extravagance in the public expenditure. Taxes are wrung from the hard-wot king Englishmen to supply this extravagance. The working men, as a class, consume much more tea, coffee, sugar, and to- bacco, than ail the other classes put together, and consequently they pay the taxes on the im- port of these articles. In 1851 the total cost of I our army and ordnance was under 99,000,000 I it is now f. 17,500,000. In 1851 the total cost of our i. avy was under £ 6,000,0(j0; it is now 913,000,000! In 1851 the total cost of the army and navy together was £ 2,39(j,717 less than the cost of the army alone in I sou. Is not this an evidence that public affairs are going tvrontr ? The expenditure on our army and navy 111 1800 exceeded by £ 15,888,385 the ex- penditure on the army and navy only nine years previous Is this a fact to make the unenfran- chised content with their position ? They know that this abominable extravagauce is mainly supplied out of money wrung from the sweat of the toiling millions. If we could but return to the expenditure of 1851, the w hole ot the duties on tea, sugar, and tobacco, with the ex- ception of a million, might be remitted Doei the writer in the l'imes think that his sneers will make the wurkiil,, man content to put up with one pound of sugar when he might have two pounds, or with one pound of tea when he might have three for the same price ? Does he think the working man considers this no griev- ance ? and does he imagine that the working m an does not look upon the acquisition of the franchise as the means of applying a remedy ?"

NEW OFFICES OF THE PROVINCIAL INSURANCE COMPANY. The handsome and commodious new offices of the Provincial Insurance Company are now completed, and the numerous staff of clerks employed by this prosperous company have migrated across the street and are now comfortably settled in their new quar- ters. We have several times, during the progress of the building, dilated upon the beauties and the conveniences of these new offices, but if our readers wish to see them under the most favourable circum- stances, they should turn in when the clerks are all at their desks. The large office in which the whole of the" ready writers" are at work, is the finest room in Wrexham, and for a long distance beyond. It is large, beautifully fitted up, warm, light, and well ventilated-the health and comfort of those employed, (matters too often neglected in large es- tablishments) have evidently been kept in view in carrying out the internal arrangements, as well as the business facilities of the premises. The desks are arranged in parallel lines across the room, all the clerks are under the eye of the principal, while a screen separates them from that portion ot the room which is devoted to the transaction of business with the customers. A strong fire-proof room open- ing into the large room keeps in the utmost safety all the valuable books, papers, and deeds belonging to the establishment, the close proximity of which to the general clerk's office greatly facilitates the progress ot the general business. The board room, the committee room, and the private room of the secretary are in front of the bUlldiog-double win- dows obviate any nuisance that might urist: from the noise ot the traffic in the street,—and double tloor8 preserve the privacy and ensure tue quietude ot these rooms on the other side. The same complete- ness prevails throughout the entire building. There is hot water and cold water eveywhere at command, a large hoist to lift up heavy materials from the cellar to the summit ot the building—;vnd a smaller one to lift up lighter articles. A telegraph to cult the clerks- to point out which clerk is waiited-aud to indicate where he is wanted. There is a place for everything and everything in its place." i hey are in every respect model offices, and it any ot our readers fed disposed to turn in and look at them, .hey will meet with the greatest courtesy, and we have no doubt when they have completed their tour ot the rooms, lobbies, passages, and different flights of stairs, that they will consider it half-an-hour well spent, and feel highly gratified with the result ot their visit.

I WREXHAM RAGGED iCUOOLS. RE- jMEMiiEit THE ilook." I We have always great pleasure in calling the at- i tention ot our italicis to the sVrexhaiu Ragged Schools, because we believe they have been instru- mental in effecting a large amount ot good amongst a certain class ot our townspeople. These schools by their peculiar constitution and their modus opnr- audi have reached a depth of degradation in oar social scale that no instrumentality ever reached uetore. Scores have been taugut to read in the Wrexham laggeJ Schools, wuu probably never wouid have acquired that usetul art at all but for cue establislnneut ot these schools. We paid them a. visit a few days ago, aud were really much struck with the order wuich prevailed-it was very ) ood. indeed, and would, liave done ciedit to schovis I I of much greater pretensions. The children also appear to make very respectable progress in the lit- I Iterenc branches of elementary instruction taught in the schoois. The reading, as in all schools ot this c lass, is not wh it 't ou-M to be, stilt it is fair. The tritninetic is tititt the writing from dictation very g,olt. Ine children s-ing well, an 1 a portion ot them form a drum and file o-inii, which is taiiizii: by Mr Hughes, ot Yorse-street, and certainly thj Lttle fellows, in tneir style of playing, uo their L t teacher and themselves great credit, But the best test of all of the good accomplished by these schools is the fact, that most of the children, when they go out to situations (boys and girls) generally conduct themselves so as to obtain excellent characters from their masters and mistresses. There may be excep- tions, but this we are given to understand is the general rule. This is very pleasing and encourag- ing to the patrons and suppotters of the schools. Some of our readers may not be aware of the abject poverty which is found amongst the parents of the children who attend these schools, hence one great, object of the committee is to procure for those who are not only ill-cl-id. but who can scarcely be said to be clad at all-such clothing as will enable them to make their appearance in the school, and in the streets on their way to the school, with something like a show of decency. The committee have done much in this way, and would do more, if they had the necessary means at their command. We are now on the threshold of winter, a time when warm clothing is almost as essential as a sufficient supply of food. Ttie patrons of the school, there- fore would be happy to receive any contributions of turn-by clothing that could be made available for the children, or any subscriptions to be devoted specially to this object. Many of the respectable classes doubtless have cast off garments that are put bye and forgotten that would be of great service to the poor children, and which, we are given to under. stand, would be received as very timely and accep- table presents at this inclement season of the year. To all such we would say Remember the poor."

t SHOCKING TRAGEDY IN DUBLIN One of the most terrible and painful tragedies that have occurred in this city for years past, was enacted on Wednesday last, at No. 25, South Cumberland-street, at between ten and eleven, a.m., and from the circumstances attending it, has evidently been the work of a madman. It appears that the perpetrator of this frightful cutia g a man named William Molloy, with his wife, sister-in- law, and the two murdered, children, occupied the top room of the house No. 25, South Cumberland-street. He had been a waiter in a hotel at Bray, but had left his situation on the 10th of September last, an d since then has been unable to obtain employment. lie aud his family were consequently reduced in circumstances, and had to part with whatever little property they possessed, in order to purchase the necessaries of life, They were brought to that state of poverty, that they had barely enough of food to suffice for the day, and to procure that he had, on the previous day, to send some of his shirt collars to the pawn-office. To this circumstance is at- tributed the origin of this dreadful occurrence. On ex- amining his shirt-collars on Wednesday morning, he stated that they were not corrept-i hit there were same of them missing, and became very angry. His sisc. r-in- law, a woman named Py^, told him that he should not be so unieasonable, and that if he did not believe that thY were all right he could g > to the pawn-office, and see that none of them had been put a>trs'v. This seemed to render him quite frantic with rsge.and seiz- ing a poker, he rushed upon h¡.r, and inflicted a serious wound or. her left temple. Sne tan from him and fled down the stairs. His wile interposed to pacify him, out he turned upon her, and most savagely attacked her, cut- ting her with the poker on the head in several places, and about her person. After struggling with him for j ilig With h,M for some minutes, she likewise succeeded in freeing herself from his grasp, and ran dowu the stairs. He did not attempt to follow her, and it seems that now the most tragic and melancholy iesture of this terrible occurrence took place. Rendered mad at being, as it were, thwart- ed in his murderous attacks on his sister-in-law and wife, he took up a knife, and catching bold of his youu est chIld-a tine boy of two years-named William, be indicted a ti-ighttui gash across bi5 throat, severing thd head almost from tue b-d y Then seizing the eldest chdd, Arthur, he, with tue same instrument cut his tiro&t. but the wound did not caus* •uommanBuw UtfdlU. 11;: now appeared to have become conscious ot the hor- nblc deed he had committed, for he immediately cried out in the most agonising aud frantic manner tor he p— weeping bitterly.

LATEST MARKE rs. LIVERPOOL CORN MARSR T—Yesterday. At our market this day there was a slow trade in wheat without any material change in prices. Oats were neglected. Barley and peas were quiet, and Egyptian beans 6d. per quarter cheaper. Indian corn was more difficult to purchase, most of the parcels offering in ship being cleared off. Oatmeal was dull, and buyers might have supplied them- selves at 3d. per load less money. There was no variation in either sack or barrel flour. LONDON CO rtN MARKET—Yesterday.

BARON RICASOU AND THE ROMAJC QUESTION. TURIN, Nov. 20.—The Ital an Parliament was reopen- ed to-day. In the Chamber of Deputies. Baron Riensoli, rresideut of the Council, explained the present ta' c of the Rownan question. He said that he ta.d drawn up a plan of reconciliation between religion and liberty and between the state and the Church. He had requested the Emperor Napoleon to become mediator, but owing to the little disposition to conciliation on the part of the RlIlln Couit, the mediation had not been attended with any re. suit. Baron Ricasoli then laid on the table of the house the documents relating to this project of arrangement. The project contains eleven articles, of which the follow- I ing is a summary :-The Pope and the Cardinals are to preserve their dignity and inviolability. Fu:l liberty is guaranteed to the sovereign Pontiff for his acts of dl vine rigiits chief of the Ciiuteh. The Pope is empowered to sendNuncil to communicate with the bish ps and the faithlul, and to convene synods and councils without the iDte(entiul1 of the Government. The King of Italy re! nounces hij right io respect of ecclesiastical benefices. The Itdian Government alio relinquishes all rzht of in- terlerenee in tt.o norninatl. n of bishops. The King of Italy will guarantee to the Pope a ccrtain reve :ne. Tbe eleven articles are preceded by au address to the Pope, accompanied by a letter to Cardinal Antonelli, re- auesting him to give the plan a favourable en sideratiun. A note addressed by Baron Ricasoli to the Chevalier de Nigra was also laid on the table of the house. It instructs the Sardin'an Minister at Paris to request the good offices of France in order to bring this project before the Pope, and says that should the pro- poea's it contains be rejected, the Italian Government could not without difficulty restrain the impatience of the of the people, who claim Rome as their capital. After the speech of Baron Ricasoli, an animated discus- sion took place on the statu of thingi in the Neapolitan provinces. The Chamber resolved on discussing the ttate of things in Naples at the same time as the Roman question.

Every condi- tion on which it was originally consented to has been cancelled. That original alliance was, in my view, an equal calamity for the nation and tha Church; but at least, it was an intelligible corn- pact. The only consequence of the present union of Church and State are, that on the sida of the Church a sedulous avoidance of all those principles on which alone church government can be established, and by the influence of which alone can the Church of England again become universal. It (the Church) would do as great things now, if it were divorced from the denradin" and tyrannical connection that enchains it. Yoa would have other sons of peasants bishops of En. land, instead of men appointed to that sacred oQica solely because they were the needy scions of a fac- titious aristocracy; men of gross ignorance, profli. gate habits, and grinding extortion, who have dis. graced the episcopal throne and profaned the alter. There is, I think, a iising feeling in the community, that parliamentary interference ill matters ecclesiastical has not tended either to the spiritual or the material elevation of the humbler orders. Divorce the Church from the State, and the spiritual power that struggled against the bruta force of the dark ages, against tyrannical monarclm and barbarous barons, will struggle again in oppo- sition to influence of a different form, but of a similar tendency, equally selfish, equally sensible, equally barharising. Holy Church, transformed into a national establishment, and therefore grumbled at by all the nation for whom it was not supported! What an inevitable harvest of sedition, radicalism, infidelity I really think there is no society, however great its reiiour" that could long resist the united influences of chief magistrate, virtual representation, and Church Es. tablishment.

A FEW WORDS FROM AMELIA. To the Editor of the Denbighshire Advertiser. Sir,-When the frost set ia so sharp the other night grandmother said she felt starved all over, so she ordered Mary to warm tho bed, and before the clock struck eight she was in bed herself, and comfortably" Lucked in" by five minutes past eight. As soon as ever grandmother was in bed Mary slipped out at the back door, and out she stopped good two hours in the cold talking to a man juat by the pump. I wonder ane was uot frozen, for the pump was frozen a little in the morning. I sometimes wish there were no men, for they do make servant girls so giddy. But what puzzles me is whatever they can find to talk auout for when I meet a male friend on the street and say How do you do ?" Its a fine morning, I am quite at a loss afterwards what to say. Sometimes the gentleman will say "Oh what a pretty little dog," (we have got a lovely little dog—a sweet creattire-I !iiink I told you). a gentleman did once ask me whether I was going to the entertainment in the lown Hall, and I thought he was going to as-k tae to come with hiUl-I was so aiarmed-but h" aiw I was a little fluttered, so he bade ma 4* good morning." I think this the longest conversation I ever had with a gentle- man in the street. Whatever these servant giils iiodto say to the men I cannot mako out. 1 should like t) hear them talking some night. Bat what I was going to say was, that Mary stopped out so long I tuought I would write a letter to you, and firÜ of all I will tell you (.bout— SIR JOHN. I have bal such a time with u:iele, I can't make you believe. You must know ha is vwy daf, and if he takes a thing in his head it is difficult to persuade him out of it. Grand mother was reading the other paper to him this afternoon. He had got a cold in his eyes and could nt see to read himself, and he generally goes to sleep when she reads that paper with a handkerchief thrown over his head. All at once, however, he burst out laughing, whieli surprised giaudinother and me amazingly. Grandmother had just read that part of the paper m which it said what a grin(i thing it would be if our new mayor should be made Sir John." You never heard such a laugh he set up. When he bad settled down a bit he said, "the fellow who wrote that doesn't know Wrexham nor the people in it, why Mr Dickenson has been a Surgeon for the last 28 years to my certain know- legde, and what do they want to make him a Surgeon over again for 1 should like to know ?" We tried to ex- plain that he must have been asleep and mistook the wurds, and that it was the honour of bring made II k/Jiht t the writer wa3 proposing for the mayor: he replied t had not been asleep and had nm bad the knwht mayor, lie got so vexed, but it was verv tunny, tor it tiok grandmother and me a full liuur to explain it to him. c CONFIDENTIAL. T'- .1 nope you vvon-t put w:,a-, I am going to say in the paper, viz :-al)out the Tuwll Councillors changing the day of meeting to accommodate the other paper. Now, although uncle is very deaf and can't sto very well, he is very long-headed, and he said the red party was obliged to do something for the fellow who threw all the dirty squibs about at the election but if they cannot do anything more substantial for him than changing the day to enable him to report better, he woot thank ??-T? he ie) ow .juljt report half-a-dozen sentences if he had a week tj do it in. I don't kuow anything about this myself, but I am telling you what uncle save.. You will always see the reports of the Advertiser copied in word for word, this f know roy.-elf. But what I wlint to ten you in strict confidence is that the councillors of the red party in fixing Tuesday instead of Wednesday for their mtetiDgs fcuve done the very thing a particular trieud of mine viould blive wished-he is a lawyer, and the first vacancy in the council he will be in-and Wed- nesday wouldn't suit him, on account of the Couuty flAiirt I AMELIA.
