CAltDIGA N SHIRE. I CAMBRIAN INSTITUTION FOR THE INSTRUCTION OF THE DIIAF AND DUMB.—It will be seen by reference to our advertising columns that the annual general meeting; of the friends of this important Institution— second to none in interest and importance in the Prin- cipality-is to be held the week after next at Aberyst- with. The laudable efforts of the promoters of this ad- mirable establishment have, we believe, been amply crowned with success during the past year, and as an exhibition of the pupils is to take place at the meeting, several intellectual and interesting phenomena are ex- pected to be developed, at once showing the ingenuity of man and the goodness of his Almighty Creator, who for wise purposes permits affliction to visit a portion of his creatures in order to admit of the exercise of benevo- lence and charity on the part of others. The following poem on the subject will be perused with interest, and we trust the Institution will, on Tuesday week, receive a large accession of friends THE DEAF MAN'S SOLILOQUY. BY JAMES MONTGOMERY. To me, while neither voice nor sound From earth or air may come, Deaf to the world that brawls around, That world to me is dumb. Yet well the quick and conscious eye Assists the slow, dull ear; Light can the signs of thought supply, And with a look I hear. The song of birds, the water's fall,' Sweet tones and grating jars, Hail, tempest, wind, and thunder—all Are silent as the stars. The stars that, on their tranquil way, In language without speech, The glory of the Lord display, And to all nations preach. Now, though one outward sense is seal'd, The kiud remaining four, To teach me needful knowledge yield Their earnest aid the more. Yet hath my soul an inward ear, Through which its powers rejoice; Speak, Lord, and let me love to-hear Thy Spirit's still small voice! So when the archangel from the ground Shall summon great and small, The ear now deaf will hear that sound, And answer to the call. THE CARDIGANSHIRE CONJUROR.—While the Lon- don papers are constantly giving publicity to the proceedings before magistrates, of the police taking before them imposters for obtaining money from sim- ple servant girls under pretence of telling their fortunes, it is rather a sign of the remissness of the Welsh magistrates and poiice than the absence of the imposition itself, that the Welsh newspapers seldom have to record any such proceedings. But though we hear nothing of its punishment in Welsh courts of justice, still there is as rank a crop of credulity and imposture in Wales as in England. Without wasting valuable space in discussing the yet undetermined ques- tion whether the knaves produce the fools, or the fools produce the knaves—without attempting to decide which of those two is parent and which is progeny, we shall this week only state a few facts that have recently taken place within a very few miles of Aberystwith. Last wee k a respectable middle aged English woman lost wearing apparel to the amount of several pounds. To recover these she immediately consulted the police ? No. The next magistrate ? No. The parson of the parish ? No. But she walked several miles to consult a conj uror- the Dyn Hyspys, the cunning man. That the wizard's ad- vice was worth nothing is pretty plain, from the fact of the poor woman being the next day without any tidings of the lost property. As there is every reason to believe that her wearing apparel was stolen by some of the hordes of tramps swarming about the upper part of Cardiganshire through the want of a rural police force, had she instantly given information to the next police officer and had a few hand-bills been printed, there might have been a chance of recovering her property, but here is a whole day and night lost in consulting this scamp of a conjuror, and sufficient time given for the thieves to go a hundred miles off with their booty, so as to render any pursuit hopeless. This occurred last week in the district between the rivers lthydol and Dovey. Another incident of the same kind occuried there about three months since, the parties, both knaves and fools being all Welsh. It will be remembered that about the above time, we gave au account of ascoroner's inquest held at Llanbadarn-fawr upon the ttody Of a farmer who had been drowned in the Cattidwr rivolk,#nd carried down to the lthydol and was found in that river, and taken to the church until it could be identified. His relatives after having followed the trace of the body for some miles, gave up the pursuit and came down to the cunning man (!) to know where the body of their unfortunate relative was. This was on Sunday evening, by which time, as was said above, the corpse had been discovered and lodged in Llanbadarn church, a distance of only two miles from the wizard's den. But he, to shew the extent of his preternatural knowledge, though the lifeless remains were so near him, tolu the poor dupes that it was far up in the mountains, aud would be found in one of the caves of the Rhydol, near the Devil's bridge. This, we should have imagined, would open the eyes of the most gullible as to the title of our- conjuror to super- natural information, and no doubt his being so egre- giously at fault on this occasion, gave a temporary check to his professional reputation, but nothing it seems is to much for popular credulity, aud the fellow is at 4is dirty work again." A,id all this in the middle of t nineteenth century! The impostor, though quite ilh rate and with morals quite the reverse of pure, is yet no means a poor man; and he is therefore without the excuse of the witches in the times of our fore-fathers, who pretended they were obliged to sell their souls to the father of lies, for the purpose of supporting life in their crazy bodies. It is to be hoped that this will meet the eye of some of the neighbouring county magistrates, and especially his landlord, who must be ignorant of what is doing under his very eyes, or before now he would have sent the impostor out of the country, or have procured him a sound whipping-at the cart's tail through Aberystwitti on a market day, with the bell-man accompanying the exhibition to pub- lish the rogue and vagabond's" offence. IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.—A gentleman farmer residing in the upper part of Cardiganshire, and who has been for half-a century a county magistrate, informs us that he has discovered a cheap and simple preven- tive of the fly in tnrnips. It is merely to sift some peat allhes over the plants just after they have made their appearance a bove ground. I ADERYSTWlTll,-THE WEATHER.—On Sunday we hadaSnp day, wind W. brisk. Towards sun-set the sky foretold a change would soon take phce. About 8 p. m. a heavy shower of rain fell, after which it cleared and became star-light. As morning dawned, the wind had got back to the s., blowing in squalls about G a. m. The barometer fell very suddenly (6 tenths). It con- tinued blowing very strong, when about 9 a m. it com- menced a hurricane from the s. w., it was then dan- gerous to walk in the streets on account of the slates falling from the top of the houses. The wheat in small mows in the fields near the sea was blown down, and the labourers obliged to seek shelter from field to field, and at last compelled to run home, while the wheat sheaves the result of their morning's labour, were drifting about, high in the air like so many covies of partridges. This was the case for miles round. The hurricane continued for about 3 hours, then some- what abated, but continued blowing strong all day accompanied with heavy showers of rain. We fear from the suddenness of the hurricane much damage will be done amongst the shipping passing St. George's channel. The vessels in this harbour have escaped injury, although some of them broke from their moorings. ABERYSTWITH GAS COf-II-ANY.-On Tuesday last, the usual annual meeting of the above company, took place at the town-hall, David Edwards, Esq., in the chair. It appeared that the share holders are perfectly satisfied with the conduct of the committee of management, for there were so few of them present that there was a difficulty to proceed to business for the want of the requisite number in amount of shares, &c., to constitute a House." When this was at last accomplished, the usual routine business was gone through, and a dividend of 8 per cent. (the same as last year) was declared payable on the 2nd of October next. CHARGE OF ROBBLity.-On the 17th inst., Alexander M'Cay, a shipwright, and a native of Scotland, was brought before David Davies, Esq., one of the magis- trates for the borough of Cardigan, charged with having stolen a waistcoat, a shirt, a pair of trousers, two cravats, some pocket handkerchiefs, and a sum of money from W. Morgan, also a shipwright. It appeared from the evi- dence that the prosecutor and prisoner lodged together at the house of Mr. J. Rees, Red Cow, Cardigan, and that on Monday, the 14th inst., the prosecutor went to his work in the morning, and left the property above- mentioned safe in his room, the prisoner being in bed. On his return to breakfast, the prisoner had absconded, taking with him the property in question. Information was given to the police, and the prisoner was appre- hended by David Evans, an active officer of the Cardi- ganshire Rural Police, stationed at New Quay, and the stolen property found at the lodging where the prisoner had been staying in New Quay. The prisoner was committed for trial at the ensuing Cardiganshire Quar- ter Sessions. ROBBERY AT KILGERRAN PAin.-On Tuesday last, Alfred Kemp, an Italian musician, was charged be- fore James Bowen, Esquire, one of the magistrates for the county of Pembroke, with having stolen a half-crown piece, from William Mason, a quarryman, residing in Kilgerran on the previous evening. It appeared from the evidence, that the prisoner, the pro- secutor, and several other persons were together in a house in Kilgerran, and the prisoner was playing music to the parties assembled, the prosecutor intending to give the prisoner a penny, threw him a piece of money, which he then believed to be a penny, but immediately missed the half-crown piece, and accused the prisoner with having it, which the prisoner denied. The police was called in and the prisoner was searched, when nearly a pounds worth of silver including one half crown, was found in a purse in his pocket. None of the wit- nesses present saw the half crown given, and the pro- secutor could not distinctly state that he gave the half crown to the prisoner, nor could he identify the piece found in the prisoner's possession. It was further proved that all the parties were the worse for liquor, and the magistrates therefore dismissed the charge. LLYNVI VALLEY RAILWAY.—The usual half-yearly general meeting of the proprietors of this company was held on Monday last, at the office, West Strand, London, Sir Robert Price in the chair. The report represented the net profit for division amongst the proprietors, in- cluding a sum of jE260 13s. 4d., carried from the last half-year, to be £ 2,108 16s. 5d., and the directors re- commended that a dividend be declared at the rate of five pound per cent, per annum on £83,1-10, the capital stock of the company, and amounting to the sum of £ 1,9S1 10s., viz., on 2,500 shares, 1:20 paid up, £ 1,250; on 8,360, with jE3 paid and £4 called, £731 10s., leav. ing a surplus of £ 127 6s. 5. to be carried to the credit of the next half-year. The report was adopted and the dividend declared payable on an eatly day, after which thanks were voted to the Ghairman and the meeting terminated. NEATH PETTY SESSIONs.-On Friday last, before Griffith Llewellyn and R. H. Miers, Esquires. There was only one trifling case of assault, in which there were cross-warrants. Ordered, each party to pay their own costs.

PUBLIC HEALTH. I To the Editor of the Welshman. I Sin,-We must acknowledge that the promoters of the Sanatory Bill, both in and out of Parliament, have been exerting themselves in a benevolent cause, one in which it is sought to strike at the origin of contagious and other diseases, and by instituting preventive means, antagonise the great causes of physical and mental suffering, so ex- tensively previtiling and-increasing, and especially at the present moment, in anticipation of that awful scourge of mankind—malignant Cholera. I trust your frequent notices on Sanatory measures have not been without their good effects, in calling the attention of the intel- ligent, and arousing the less sensitive, to a just notion of the danger that surrounds all classes, both rich and poor where Sanatory means are neglected. Surely a knowledge only can be necessary, to create a general interest in this important question—the preservation of health, and with it the preservation of worldly means and comforts, increase of happiness and extension of life itself. The causes of disease are even found to be greatly on the increase, both as to number and power, and so alarming is the effect that legislation upon the subject became imperative, giving rise to the "Pub- lic Health Bill," "Nuisances and Contagious Diseases Bill," &c., brought in to remedy many things most dan- gerous to health and to life. There are abundant facts to prove that a large amount of disease is capable of being prevented. In the healthiest year since the sys- tem of registration has been adopted, the number of deaths in the United Kingdom above what is considered a fair and moderate standard (two in a hundred of the population) was 43,000; but on an average of seven years considerably above this, shewing an excess of ol,000 for the United Kingdom. Still even this large amount of unnecessary waste of human life does not fully show the extent of misery brought upon the coun- try, for at the lowest estimate it is ascertained that for every unnecessary death there are twenty cases of unne- cessary siCMiess, so that in the healthiest year an amount of no less than half a million, and on an average of seven years, an amount considerably exceeding one million cases of unnecessary sickness occur annually. What arguments can be offered in opposition to such facts ? Our duty to our neighbour commands our exertions, and our most important interests are inseparable from his. Nor is it diiiicult to perceive that the evil in disease or death is not confined by any means to the sufferer or the immediate relatives, for its influence is widely ex- tended. If the tradesman is so fortunate as to escape being a sufferer in disease, he most assuredly must suffer in trade, and this is not all, he becomes a sufferer by increased poor's rates, and possibly other losses. The authorities of Sheffield in reporting upon this subject, shew that in the West Riding alone the amount in annual loss by preventible" diseases was no less than £ 1,500,000, and the population being 1,100,000, the loss was at the rate of from seven to eight and twenty shillingsjper head. Thus all grades, from the highest to the lowest are interested in this question. It concerns life, all kinds of property, occupiers, whether of houses or land, every variety of trade or occupation, even to the labourer. Nor is this town by any means so free from disease as we might be led to expect, or as many ima- gine the returns for this district, although about a fourth of it is rural, exceed very considerably the na- tural standard for England and Wales, and shew an excess of sickness to an extent. of more than twelve hun- dred cases annually. The subject is one that requires the most serious consideration, and all those who can at all appreciate their dearest interests, and are anxious to preserve them, will with as little delay as possible adopt some measures calculated to stay this unnecessary amount of disease and melancholy waste of human life, with all its attendant evils. In carrying into effect sa- natory improvements, one of the great objects to be at- tained is apure atmosphere for the purpose of respira- tion. Thus our attention is directed to all thoseMW>tm>es from whence it may be vitiated-as bad and insufficient drainajte sewerage icater-supply ventilation, <5fc., which are originating the worst kinds of diseases, and aggravating the most simple maladies, until they assume a dangerous modification. I am, Sir, yours truly. Carmarthen, Aug. 24th. J.

His mother tan to him and opened his mouth, whereupon one of the plums dropped out, but she soon perceived that there was another still in his throat. She immediately nt to a neighbour's house, which was within two lipids distant, and in the meantime put her finger into hill mouth, but could not extract the fruit she then ?*rHed him in, and as soon as she sat down, blood lftued from his mouth, and he died instantly. A neigh- bour and his wife by this time came in, and took the citild into their arms, but life was extinct. The husband by Putting his tinger under its throat, and his wife the same time opening its mouth, the plum that %tuck in his throat, slipped out. Verdict-" Accident- choked."
