D., Newcastle-Emlyn.—The report you have favoured us I with appeared in the Welshman a fortnight ago. The letter of ?ir. l?lori-is, P Ihe letter of Mr. Morris, JULiyd Lewis, is unavoidably omitted from the late period at which it was received. Lengthy communications should be forwarded early in the week when practicable. We cannot insert, or notice in any way, any communica- tion that is sent to us anonymously but those who ehooee to address us in confidence will rind their confidence re- spected. Neither can we undertake to return any manu- scripts whatever. It is requested that any complaints respecting the delay in the delivery of this Paper, be immediately addressed to the Editor, so that the proper representation may be made to the Postmaster-General. e- THE WELSHMAN is Published every Friday morning at Six o'clock.

The Indian Mutiny is still the all-absorbing topic in this country, and in almost every country of Europe the subject is one which occupies a large share of public attention. In England a doubt has not for one moment been entertained that we shall eventually put down the rebellion, re-assert our authority, and maintain the whole of our extensive possessions in the East. This is not the confidence of ignorance, unconscious of the difficul- ties to be; overcome, the costliness of the work, the sacri- fi ces which it requires, the life-blood it will consume; but the conviction which is inspired by the rig hteous- ness of onr cause, the mighty conquests which we have achieved, tho power we possess. We have measured the strength of the enemy, we know of the discord which prevails in their camp, that they have no defined purpose, that the people of India are not with them. For some time our self-confidence was regarded with suspicion. It was said we had over-estimated our powers of resistance- that when our strength was put forth to the ful! we should find the insurgent army able to resist and to drive us away from our dominion over them. The downfall of Britain was looked upon as certain, and the loss of India was to be the first retrograde movement. In several nations of Europe, particularly in France, these sentiments were entertained more generally than was at one time admitted. Now, however, with the progress of events in India, the predictions of our neigh- bours on the Continent change their complexion. They say the mutiny will undoubtedly be subdued by us, but that great trouble will be experienced in restoring order. Indeed, a Russian newspaper gravely proposes a protec- torate of European Powers to do that in India which England has failed and cannot alone accomplish. These opinions are worthy of note, although this country attaches no further value to them than that of in- dicating the character of neighbouring States in relation to ourselves. However, in the best informed circles the rebellion is looked upon as having exhibited its worst phase. With the arrival of reinforcements and the spread of soldiers through the disturbed territory, the hopes of the insurgents expire. It is only a matter of time, and perhaps the next mail will bring intelligence of conquests ittle short of final victory. There is no foreign news of more than ordinary interest this week. The King of Prussia whose life was despaired of eight or ten days ago, is getting better and it is ex- pected his health will be fully restored. The question affecting the Danubian Principalities is apparently as far from satisfactory settlement as ever. Throughout Europe there is an absence of important news. The events which have occurred of interest to us are recorded elsewhere. In this country the state of the money-market has excited an alarm bordering a panic. As we have in another part of this impression given the fullest infor- mation on the subject, even a recapitulation in this place is not required. In local matters attention is centred upon the late accident on the South Wales Ibilway. The inquest has resulted in a verdict of manslaughter against Charles White, the Stormy station-master. The vidence is most contradictory throughout, and will re- quire the nicest discrimination in sifLing. One point ha een very clearly established, and that is the absolute neces- sity of Itailway Companies appointing competent men to the performance of the higher duties at stations. Larger salaries would have to be paid, but after all that is the most economical course. A good deal of our space is occupied this week with reports of Quarter Sessions. They are not of so much importance as usual, but to the rate- payers there are many points of interest, while all who are connected with the district mu3t naturally feel con- cerned in the proceedings of these courts.

LOCAL INTE Mi [GUN Oh. WESLEYAN^MISPIOX.—The aiinivergary-of the Carmarthen Auxiliary to the Wesleyan Missionary Society, was held this week. On Sunday two sermons were preached in the English chapel, by the Rev. T. West. The public meeting was held on Thursday evening in the Assembly liooms, David Morris, Esq M.P., in the chair. The principal speakers were the Rev. G. Roebuck and the Rev. T. West, the deputation. There was a large attendance and the proceedings were of unusual interest. CARMARTHEN SCHOOL OF ART.—Mr. Wilde, the Govern- ment Inspector, will visit this school on Tuesday next, and it is intended to exhibit to the public at the central school room a collection of drawings of the students, &c. CARMARTHEN COUNTY ROADS BOAIm. — A general meeting of this board was held in the Grand Jury Room, at the Shire-hall, Carmarthen, on Wednesday last. The members present were—R. G. Thomas, Esq., (in the chair) John Johnes. Esq., John Lloyd Price, Esq.. David Davies, Esq., John Hughes Rees, Esq., W. D. H. Campbell Davys, Esq., Charles Bishop, Esq., George Davies, Esq., George Goode, Esq., and Col. Wortham, the General Superinten- dent. The claim of David Griffiths, of Dryslwynfawr, for weiring at Drjslwynford, was referred to the Llandovery District Roads Board. As it appeared that the County Roads Board was not liable to maintain a covered drain across the highway at the north of the turnpike road at White Mill, it was resolved that an open pitched water- cuurse be substituted, and the channel restored to the same state as it was in before the drain was made, at an expense not exceeding d61 10s. Permission was given to the proprie- tors of Pontyeats Colliery to relay a tramroad at the side of the turnpike road, near that colliery, provided that it be done to the satisfaction of the Surveyor, that no locomotive be used thereon, and that the proprietors pay this board £1 per annum from the 29th ult. The proprietors of Garnant Colliery were permitted to lay tram rails across the turnpike road, near that colliery, provided that proper crossing rails be used for the purpose, to the satisfaction of the Surveyor, and that the proprietors pay this board XI y.-er annum from the 29th ult. and do not use any locomotive on the turnpike road. The proprietors of Garnant colliery were requested to remove timber and other obstructions on the turnpike road, near that colliery and to use means, to the satisfaction of the Surveyor, for preventing the water flowing from the tramroad to the turnpike road. It was resolved that a sum not exceeding 16 10s., be expended by the Three Com- motts District Roads Board in rebuilding the retaining and fence wall at Llanarthney bridge, and that arrangements be made with the occupier of the adjacent land for alterifig and continuing the wall. A petition from Samuel Evans, of New- castle- Emlyn was read, and the clerk directed to inform him that the board regret they have no fund from which to vote him the allowance he desires. The resolution of the 1st of July last, relative to the completion of the diversion of the road near Llandebie, by the Llanclly Railway Company, not having been carried out, the clerk was directed to see that no further unnecessary delay take place. It was re- solved that the necessary steps be taken for causing the repair of the turnpike road by the Llanelly Railway Com- pany where it is crossed by their railway at Garnant, and also at Cilrychen. The clerk was directed to take steps for recovering the sums due to the board for timber sold in the Carmarthen district after the flood in 1854. It was re- solved that should the biddings for the tolls on the 28th mftant not equal the amounts which shall appear to be their probable value trom the sums they shall have reaiised since ?hey have been in the hands of the board, or such informa- t'ori as can be obtained as respects the Three Commotts and "°?ary Districts, or such amount as shan have been de- i,erii?ii?e(i on as respects the Carmarthen District, that re- couree bd had to private tenders, and that the gates for which such tenders shall not equal such an amount, be kept in the hands 0 the bdard till satisfactory tenders hall have been re- ?i? ? ?'Solved that application be made to the Dro? crietor'? the Li™ Colliery for the payment of the their railway.D°Thedf1nilnt the. tramroad crossing rear t heir railw7a3- e The rk ?pcrted that he had not received way Boards for the^S-?^ Lla?k District High- iray Boards for the yegx 1856-7.

CARMARTHEN BOROUGH QUARTER SESSIONS. Theso sessions were held on Wednesday last in the Town Hall, before J. Johnes, Esq., Recorder, J. L. Philipps, Esq., Mayor, and E. H. Stacey, Esq. There being not a single prisoner for trial the proceedings of the court were strictly formal and did not occupy half an hour. The Grand Jury was composed of—Mr. J. Adams, Dark Gate Mr. W. do G. Warren, King-street; Mr. T. Bright, Nott Square; Mr. T. n. Jenkins, Guildhall Square; Mr. R I ?i,)stvii 1),Av i es, King- M. Davies, King-street; Mr. T. Mostyn Davies, King- street; Mr. J. L. Morris, Dark Gate; Mr. F. Davies, Nott Square; Mr. N. Williams, Temple Gardens: Mr. D. Davies, Guildhall Square; Mr. J. N. Buckley, Guildhall Square; Mr. W. Morris, Nott Square; Mr. T. Jones, Queen-street; Mr. E Evans, Queen-street; Mr. It. Barrett, Union-street Mr. D. Rees, Guildhall Square; Mr. W. Bright, Dark Gate; and Mr. J. Williams, King-street. The customary formalities having been observed the learned Recorder addressed the Grand Jury, remarking that happily it was not his duty to address them any great length of time on the present occasion as there was not a single prisoner for trial. This was, as lie had often before remarked, the best possible evidence of the excellent order and good government of the borough. It was, however, necessary for him briefly to advert to one or two recent Acts of Parlia- ment which relate to the administration of justice. A great many valuable and important Acts were passed during the late session, and although they were of general interest he was not required to notice them in his charge as they in no way related to the administration of justice. The Act of the 20th and 21st Vict. c. 23 was the first to which he would direct attention. It gives the power of appeal against the decision of the magistrates in cases of summary jurisdiction, not on points of fact but on law only. Application in all such appeals must be made to the Justices within three days after the decision, to prepare a case for the opinion of the superior court, the dissatisfied person entering into recog- nizance to pay all costs if the decision be confirmed. lie regarded this as a very useful provision. He then referred to the 48th chap. of the same statutes which relates to Re- formatory Schools, and read the clauses which empower the Justices to send vagrant children under certain condition to those schools for education. After repeating his congratula- tions at the entire absence of crime from the calender he formally dismissed the jury. The court then rose.

GI.VNETT'S ClItCus.-We remind our readers that Gin- nett's troupe of Equestrians will visit this town to-day. Their performance is highly spoken of at the places visited by them. POOR RATE.—On Friday last, a poor rate of tenpence in the pound, for the parish of St. Peters, for the current quarter, was seen and allowed by the magistrates in petty sessions. CARMARTHEN PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held on Saturday last, in the town hall, before Col. Sir J. J. Hamilton, Bart., Capt. David Davies, Dr. Lawrence, li. Jennings, Esq Grismond Philipps, Esq., D. J. B. Edwardes, Esq., and H. J. H. Lawrence, Esqrs. The case of William Jones, Gellydywyll, Llanddarog against William Thomas for an assault, was compromised. John Thomas, Glanrynnis, Llangendeirne, was fined Is. and costs, for not having the owners name on a cart. CARMARTHEN AND CARDIGAN RAILWAY —On Friday last at the Borough Petty Sessions, Mr. John Lewis, Glyninarch, was appointed surveyor under the Land Clauses Act, to value a garden under the Parade for the purposes of the Carmarthen and Cardigan Railway Company. Mr. i. Green made the application requesting the magistrates to appoint Mr. Rosser, Llanelly but the bench declined to ap- point any one interested on the part of the company or owner of the land CARMARTHEN POLICE COURT. —At the Town Hall, on Friday last before J. L. Philipps, Esq., (mayor), and E. H. Stacey, Esq. The parish constables were sworn in. Lewis Lewis, a lad about 12 years of age, was charged with putting off fire works in the streets. P.C. Beynon proved that on the previous evening he took the defendant into custody for setting off crackers in Blue-street. There were were a number of boys together with the defendant. The magistrates expressed their determination in future to punish with severity every person convicted before them of putting off fireworks in the public streets, but this being the first case, defendant was cautioned and discharged. David Davies, Priory-street, was charged with assaulting Mr. W. Morris, collector of rates. From the evidence it appeared that Mr. Morris on the previous Wednesday went to defend- ant's house for the General District Rate, He knocked at the door, which having been answered by Mrs. Davies, he went inside the passage. When he was asking for the rate the defendant rushed into the house and said, "You bl-y blackguard, what do you want here." On being civilly told, he struck the collector .against the wall, and applied many coarse epithets to him. Defendant's wife interfered, and' asked him why he assaulted the man" He then struck his wife a violent blow, from the effects of which she fell to the ground insensible. The assault was then repeated on the collector with additional severity. The defendant was convicted in the penalty of jE2 and costs, or in default to be imprisoned for two months. Paid.—On Monday, before E. 11. Stacey, Esq Timothy Hurley and Daniel ICelly were ?-sor d ei-y conduct. From the charged with fighting and disordery conduct. From the evidence of P.C. Beynon, it appeared that the defendants, with a large number of Irishmen who live at Kidwelly-fach, quarrelled on Sunday night and attempted a fight. There was a great disturbance, and it was altogether a regular Irish Row." Mr Superintendent Kentish, P.C. Woozley, Beynon, and Williams afterwards succeeded in taking the defendants to the station-house. Kelly was fined 5s., and Hurley 10s. and costs. ST. CLEARS PETTY SESSIONS.These sessions were held on Tuesday last, at the Swan Inn, St. Clears, before R. T. Beynon. Esq., and T. Powell, Esq. David Davies, agricul- tural servant, was charged with leaving the service of Mr. Goode, who stated that lie hired ihe defendant at Pwlltrap, on the 18th of November, 1856, to serve him for twelve months, at £ o wages. The defendant remained in his service until the 20th of May, when he absconded, returning in June, and leaving again on the 20th of July, and since that time he had not returned. There was no legal excuse for his leaving, and altogether he was a very bad servant. De- fendant, who did not appear, was formally discharged from his service, the complainant consenting to pay the costs. James Morris, Plaesywarren, Llangunning, was charged with trespassing in search of game. The defendant did not appear, and the service of the summons having been proved, Edward Hughes, gamekeeper, living at Penycoed Lodge, stated th.it on the 9th instant be saw the defendant at Pen- back farm, Llanboidy, in pursuit of game. He had a gun, and was followed by a dog. Just before seeing the defend- ant, the complainant heard the explosion of a gun. He saw the defendant, in the act of loading his gun and afterwards beating the land, and sending his dog to search out the nme. There were partridges and hares on the land this season. When detected, the defendant ran away. The de- fendant was convicted in the penalty of £2 and costs. Divid John, was charged with non-pay merit of wages. Harriet James, Troedyrhiw, Llaiminiiing, stated that on the 13th of October, 1856, she was hired by the defendant to serve him for twelve months, as an agricultural servant, at .£: 5s. wh^gs — £ 3 in cash, and 5s- in certain articles of clothing. Stie had served the whole of her time except three weeks, when she was ill at home. Ten shillings weie now due to her. The defendant was ordered to pay 9s. 6J. and costs. Thomas Phillips and James Phillips, i'wily ■ gravel, Llanfihangel-Abercowin, were fined Gd. each and costs for riding on their carts on the turnpike road. KIDWELLY. — On Wednesday last, Frederick Cycle and James UIJde were brought up before Mr. J. G. Roberts, (mayor), and Mr. Thomas Thomas, charged with stealing a quantity of wearing apparel the property of Rihard O'Leary, on the 6th inst. The requisite evidence having been taken, the prisoners were committed for trial at the Sessions. LLAXIJILo. On Thursday evening last an interesting lecture was delivered at the baptist chattel in this place, by the Rev. n. W. Hughes, of Liverpool, on "Ymdaith yr Israeliad or aift't i ganaan," illustrated by elaborate maps and diagrams prepared for the occasion. John Prytherch, Esq., presided. There was a large and respectable at- tendance, and the loeturer was listened to throughout, with the most marked attention. About L30 waa collected in aid of the fund for building the chapel house, and at the conclusion a vote of thanks was proposed and seconded to the chairman, and warmly adopted by the meeting. TAFF VALE EXTENSION RAILWAY.—The works on this important line are fa4 approaching towards completion, and in all probability will be opened about Christmas. A slip which happened at the mouth of the tunnel ten days ago has thrown the works back considerably, otherwise the opening would have taken place at the end of November, or very early in December. It may not be generally known that the mag- nificent viaduct at Crumlin, of which we gave a short de- scription at the time of its opening in June last, is not the only structure worthy of notice on this line, as may be gathered from the following particulars of the iuaeeycuriimwi- Viaduct, at the Rumney Junction, about six miles from Crumliii :-Its length is 852 feet 6 inches; breadth at top over the parapet, 23 ft. 6 in. breadth at the foundation of piers, 40 ft.; thickness of piers at bottom, 10 ft. ditto at springway, 5 ft. 6 in. height of bridge above the river, 120 ft.; number of openings, 16 span of openings, 40 It. arches, semicircular; time building, 2 years; timber used in scaffolding, 32,000 cublic feet; architects, Messrs. Liddle and Gordon, 24, Abingdon-street; the contractors are Messrs. Kennie and Logan and the total cost is under £ 20,000. This viaduct is built of stone obtained in the neighbourhood. The masonry i* what is termed rock work, with a block course at the springen of the arches. There is nothing orna- mental about the work, the main object being strength but at a short distance it has a very imposing effect-the pro- portions of the various parts harmonise so well and form a very pretty picture. In order to form an idea of the magni- tude of this undertaking, suppose three bridges were added to the Carmarthen Bridge, of the same length, which would reach nearly half way to Pensarn—this would give the length and now, imagine four of these placed one above the other, and we have the height and length of the Maesy- cummwr Viaduct, which is therefore equal to 16 bridges of the size of Carmarthen Bridge, and all this tinder £ 20,000, a contrast, as to cos', with the bridge at Llandilo! After viewing and admiring the mighty w<>ik, the visitor may spend an agreeable half hour in going through Mr. Jenkins's woollen factory, at the foot, or rather below the bridge. his is a small concern, carried on in every respect but "ne the same as the large mills in the west of England and in Yorkshire; the power loom is the only thing wanting, and this Mr. Jenkins intends to set up in the course of next year. There are abundant facilities in Walts for manu- factories on a large scale—the whole distance from Miltord Haven to this place. If the same spirit of enterprise were observable in this branch of trade that we perceive in the carrying out of our mighty iron works, we should have our valleys teeming with mills; for there is no part of the United Kingdom where water power is so plentiful. HorsE BREAKING.— On Sunday evening last the dwelling house of John Davies, Coesllina, Pontvbcvem, was forcibly entered, and £ 19 10s. in gold taken away. A pane of glass was removed from the parlour window so as to admit a hand to open the fasting. Two iron bars on the outside of the window were wrenched off. All the drawers in the room were ransacked. That containing the money was the only one locked, and instead of breaking the lock "the drawer im- mediately above it was removed so as to admit of the search. The only things stolen was the money and a handkerchief in which it was wrapped. LLANGADOCK. PETTY SFssro-s.- These sessions were held at the Glansevin Arms Inn, on the 15th instant, before Lewis Lewis, Esq., (mayor) G. W. Rice, and the Rev. T, Davies, clerk. Enoch Roberts, of Pencagarw, charged John Williams, of Caemawr, Breconshire, with maliciously kil- ling a pig, his property, by driving a cart over him when returning from lime on the 30th ult. He was ordered to pay £ 2, the value of the pig. or six weeks' imprison- ment. William Davies, of Cefenforest, charged Isaac Jones, of Blaeollynan, with violently assaulting him on the 9th instant. He was fined 5s. and costs, or in default, three weeks, imprisonment. P.C. David Howells charged Thomas Griffiths, Carregfilgam, with leaving his waggon on the side of the road for a considerable time. He was fined Is. and costs. Henry Evans, of the Glansevin Arms, charged William Evans, his servant, with ill-behaviour, insolent conduct, and on several occasions disobeying his orders and absenting himself from his service. Committed to the House of Correction for one month. The case of William Davies, of Llangadock, against William Parker, railway contractor, for non-payment of wages, was com- promised. LLANDILO MUSICAL SOCIETY.—We understand that Dr. Wastfield, the talented organist of this Church, is about to establish a society at Llandilo for the purpose of instructing pupils in vocal and instrumental music. Knowing his ability for undertaking such a project we wish him every success. LLANDILO PETTY SESSIONS.—On Saturday last, before J. W. Philipps, W. Peel, and W. du Buisson, Esqrs., and the Rev. D. H. T. G. Williams, Clerk. Mr. W. T. Mister, of Carmarthen, applied for a warrant of ejectment against Elizabeth Davies, Brynmelin, Llanegwad, she refusing to give up his farm. Warrant granted to be ejected in twenty- one days. James Davies, Tynywaun, Llanegwad, was charged by Timothy Davies, keeper to D. Jones, Esq., M.P., with trespassing in pursuit of game. Mr. J. P. Lewis ap- peared for the defendant. Timothy Davies being sworn de- posed I am game keeper to Mr. Jones of Pantglas. On the 30th of Sept last I saw James Davies on Penybank farm in the parish of Llanfynydd. He had with him a greyhound and was then coursing a hare. He was not the tenant of that place. Cross-examined I saw the hare and the dog. I spoke," to James Davies after the course was over. The tenant of Penybank was with him and one John of Brechfa. I asked James Davies how he came to Penybank to course. He said the tenant had given him leave. He said this whilst the tenant was present. I will not swear whether the tenant said he gave permission or not. They both went away after 1 spoke to them. John Roberts, of Brechfa, the person named by the complainant, proved that he was present when the tenant gave James Davies permission. Case dis- missed. We have been favoured with the following letter received by the relatives of the writer, who reside in this county, which will be read with the interest peculiar at this period in all events transpiring at the seat of war:— Main Picquet, Hindoo Itaos House, Delhi, August 12th, 1857. I have not much time for letter writing, but I cannot allow another mail to go out without just a line to say that I am all right. With the exception of a few cracks from spent balls, I am, thank God, untouched. The escapes I have daily are perfectly wonderful. We have not yet taken Delhi, but (D.V.) it will fall before the end of this month. As yet we have only 5,000 infantry, and with such a small force it would be madness to attempt all assault. We might certainly take the batteries, but taking the town and Palace (which are fortified) is another thing. The rascals have 64 heavy guns and about 200 light, with 15,000 in- fantry, and about 6,000 or 7,000 cavalry. However, the more the better, say 1. When we do get in, rest assured not a man will escape if we can possibly help it. My little fellows (the Ghoorkas of the Jirmoor Battalion) are grind- ing their teeth again to get into the fort. We arrived before this place (as you have already heard) on the 8th of June. I was requested to take command of this picquet (the a in), which is on the right of on,- position, and since I have been here I have been attacked by the rascals twenty- five different times, but they have not yet succeeded in driving me out. They have on all occasions been driven back with great loss, and I have tv>ice followed the scoun- drels up and driven them within their strong walls My losses have been most severe. I have lost four officers killed and wounded out of six, and 249 men killed and wounded out of 415, which number I had with the regiment the day before we reached this. Would that we had more Ghoorkas, but unfortunately they are not to be had in numbers, as some imagine. My regiment is to be 1.000 strong, but I shall have some difficulty in recruiting. My recruits from Deyrah joined me the other day, and I can now muster 250. I have in all 1,000 men under my command here-detachments of the 60th Rifles, Seh and 6th l" oot, men of Coolie's ltegiinent, Corps of Guides, and my own. I dare say has told you of the last attack made on my position. It commenced at sunset on the 1st instant, and lasted the whole of that night and until 5 p.m. the next day. The rascals brought out eight guns, and got their heavy guns from the Bastion to play upon me. How- ever, it was of no use. I held my own with one thousand against their ten. They were able to relieve their troops during the night, but there was no relief for my poor men. At 2 p.m., on the 2nd, they thought they had had enough of it, and at 5 p.m. I had the satisfaction of seeing them in full retreat. They attacked me again on the 6th, and brought out heavy suns—with which they are now pounding this house and different breastworks w/tich I have on the ■right. From the morning of the 6th until 2 p.m. on the 10th my men were under arms This morning we took four of their light guns, which they were fools enough to bring out on the left, which is open ground, and where we could easily get at them. A force went out half an hour before daybreak and completely took the enemy by sur- prise. Their guns were taken, and a good number of them killed. We lost an officer killed and two wounded. My dear friend, John Coke, one of the latter, but I am happy to say his wound is not a bad one—through the fleshy part of the thigh. He will soon get over it, I hope. We have lost 20U officers killed and wounded since we appeared be- fore this place. How I have escaped I know not. My men have their heads taken off by round shot right and left of me, but mine is still on my shoulders. A merciful Provi- dence watched over me. Poor Law, of the late 10th (for they have mutinied with the rest of the Pandees), was killed on the 23rd of July. He was doing duty with John Coke's regiment. Poor fellow, he was shot throuh the body, and died immediately. I have just written to his father. The poor fellow had been on duty with me here, and had only left me that morning He died as every soldier would wish to die-in front of his men, sword in hand. He "as a good officer, and a great friend of mine. I have not time for another line. We are under fire here morning, noon, and night. God bless you all. I hope to write again when Delhi falls. LLANELLY.—REVISION OF THE LIST OF VOTERS.—A court was held at the To«n Hall on Wednesday last by H. G. Allen and W. Atills, Esqrs., barristers for the respective parishes of the Union. There was no interest excited. TEA PARTY AT KILFEG.—The girls of Dafen Tin Works school were regaled with tea and cake on Friday last by the kindness of Mrs. Philipps. The Dafen band was present and played for the amusement of the juveniles. LLANELLY.—CAPEL NEWYDD SUNDAY SCHOOLS.—The children of these schools and the Furnace branch were re- galed with tea and cake on Friday last at the Chapel. They assembled in the afternoon and formed a procession, and headed by the choir perambulated the principal streets of the town. On returning to the Chapel they partook of the good things provided by the ladies and friends of the con- gregation. there were from 700 to 1,000 present. In the evening an interesting meeting was held when several ad- dresses were delivered. 0 LLANELLY.—WESLEYAN MISSIONs.-The annual meet- ing of the Llanelly Auxiliary was held on Sunday and Wednesday last. Two sermons were preached on Sunday at the Wesleyan Chapel by the Rev. S. Atkinson. On Wednesday evening the public meeting was held under the presidency of D. Morris, Esq., M.P. The Rev. J. Pengelly engaged in prayer, after which the chairman briefly ad- dressed the meeting and was frequently applauded. Mr. Buckley then read the report, which showed that the contributions ot the circuit for the past year amounted to over 160. He then called on the Rev. J. Pengelly to move the first resolution, who in doing so addressed the meeting at some length. This was seconded by the Rev. D. Rees in a brief address. The Rev. T. West and the Rev. G. Roe- buck, the deputation then delivered able addresses, which were listened to with marked attention by the highly re- spectable audience present. A vote of thanks was proposed by Mr. Buckley and seconded by the Rev. E. Addison, and carried with applause to the honourable member for his great kindness in taking the chair. Liberal collections were made at the close of each of the services. The meeting was a very interesting one and a great improvement on some that have been held in late years. It is frequently remarked that Missionary meetings are too long and tedious, but on this occasion it was quite the reverse.

I CARDIGANSHIRE. LAMPETER PETTY SESSIONS were held on the 17th inst., before the Very Rev. the Dean of St. David's, and John Pugh Pryse, Esq. An order was made for the removal of two pauper children, Eleanor and Sarah Lloyd, from the parish of Llanwenog to the parish of Llansawel. Several summonses were issued, which constituted the business of the day. ALLTYRODIN AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION.—On Tuesday the 13th inst., the second annual meeting of this society was held as tha Wilks Head, Llyndyssil, and the tenants on the Alltyrodin property entered with much spirit into the various lists for competition. The landlord, John Lloyd Davies, Esq., gave as previously, X,20 for competition amongst them, and the pnzes were awarded as follows by Messrs. Evan Evans, Cwmbyehan, Thomas Davies, Henllan, and Joseph Joseph, Wern, judges for the cattle. For the horned cattle.—First prize to Mr. John James, TVilks Head second, to Mr. Samuel Jones, Alltyrodin Arms; third, to Mr. John Davies, Dolwaliter. First prize lor the best mare and foal, to Mr. Samuel Jones, Alltyrodin Arms; second, to Mr. David Thomas, lihydceir. Messrs. Jenkin Jones, Itheol, and James Davies, Alltyrodin, judges for the green crops and drains. — First prize to Mr. Evan Rees, Dolifor second, to Messrs. John Lloyd, Penrallt, and Daniel Jenkins, Pant- moch third, to Mr. Titus Thomas, Tommenrhydowen. Messrs. Lewis Evans, Cwmbychan, and William Jones, Dancoed, judges for the best ploughing.—First prize to Elias Jones Dolifor second, to Evan Davies, Wilks Head third, to James Davies, Glancletwr; fourth, to Daniel Davies, Blaendyfi'ryn. The prizes, adds a correspondent to whose opinion we do not pledge ourselves, being here obtain- able by tenants alone has inspired them with ardent desire for the contest, the fear of being exceiled by the landlord not affecting them. In consequence of numerous applications from tenant farmers on other properties it is intended to admit them members from henceforth each paying as his subscription a fixed proportion with reference to his rent, so that a large bolder or a small one will contribute according to the value of his holding. The principle on which this l society is conducted is so acceptable to all from its justice and fairness, that it is expected to include an immense number of members, and confer on a large and neglected district incalculable benefit. ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—Mr. Rowland Rowland' of Strata Florida, in this county, having been elected Fellow of this College at a previous meeting of the council, was ad- mitted as such on the 8th instant. CARDIGAN MILITIA.-Tbe appeal-of the Lord Lieutenant and the exertions which are being made throughout thp county to raise the Royal Cardigan Militia fovee to the number required by the Act of Parliament have already been attended with considerable success. During the week a goodly number of recruits have been obtained, and it is hoped the quota will be completed. I LLANDTSSUL READING SOCIETY. A meeting of the members of this society was held on the evening of Monday, the 19th iust., whpn from the Secretary's report it appeared that owing to some of the members being in arrears of their promised support, the society is indebted for books and periodicals to a considerable amount. It was resolved that: another application should be made for payment to those members who are in default, such application to be accom- panied with a statement of the society's financial affairs. LLANDISSUL.—A meeting of the principal inhabitants of this town was held on Tuesday last, for the purpose of taking into consideration the most expeditious method of promoting the interest and prosperity of the town and neighbourhood—among other resolutions it was determined that a new fair should be held here for the sale of horses, cattle, sheep, fat and store pigs, &c. CARDIGANSHIRE COUNTY RokDs BOARD.— A meeting was held on Wednesday last, at the Court House, Aber- ayron, for the purpose of letting the rents arising from the several toll gates in the county.

LLANDY'SSXJL.—On the evening of the 16th fnst. the Rev. John Jones, "Humilis," delivered a lecture in the Wesleyan chapel, in this town, on "India." Mr. John D. Thomas presided, who opened the meeting in a concise speech, and introduced the rev. lecturer, who commenced by giving a graphical outline of the country, manners, and religion of its inhabitants, and a brief history of the period when our enterprising merchants became settlers there, The atten- dance was not so numerous as was anticipated. ABERYSTWITH.—COMMISSIONTRS MEETING.—A meeting of the commissioners was held on Tuesdey last. Present- John Jenkins, Esq., (id the chair) Messrs. John Jones, jThomas Jones, and Charles Hackney. The bills due from the commissioners were examined and ordered to be paid. The question in dispute between the commissioners and Mr. Vaughan, the road-surveyor, as to whether he had a right to carry stones from the beach, was ordered to be adjourned till the usual monthly meeting. The meeting was then ad- ourned for a fortnight. ABERYSTWITH PETTY SESSIONS.—Oa the 9th inst., at the Station House, before F. R. Roberts, Esq,, (mayor). Henry Felix was charged by P,C. Evans with being drunk. Fined 2s. 6d. Jane Griffiths was charged by P.C. Oliver for a liike offence. Fined 2s. 6d. On Monday last an inquest was held at Cnwch-coch, near Crosswood. before J. M. Davies, Esq., coroner, on view of the body of James Davies, aged 19 years, when the following evidence was adduced. Thomas Hughes, Gate-house, de- posed that on Monday, the 20th ultimo, the deceased called upon me. He had a gun with him which proved to be loaded. He had the stock in one side pocket of his coat and the barrel in another side pocket opposite, so that the stock and barrel were placed one each side of his breast. I noticed him in the act of adjusting his necktie. He was standing then in the door of the house where I live. While he was thus engaged the barrel fell through his coat pocket to the ground. The cap must have come in contact with some hard substance and fired, and the charge entered the deceased's body through the lower part. I believe some shot went into his bowels. He was ailing from that time up to the 16th instant when he died. The first words he uttered after the gun discharged was, I I Oh dear, I have killed myself." R. Rowlands, Esq., deposed I attended upon the deceased in a short time after the accident, and I continued to do so up to his death on the 16th inst, I found that the charge from a guu had entered his body through the abdomen. He was very much exhausted from loss of blood. I considered him to be dangerously wounded, and expected it would result fatally. Mortification set in and affected the bowels, which was sufficient to .cause death. The jury returnee a verdict of Accidental Death." PONTRYDFENDIGAID.—THE POTATO CROP. We had some time ago gloomy forebodings with respect to the potato crop, but as they hre now gathering they are not found to be so much infected as was anticipated. PEMBROKE.—Mr. Thomas Mansel, of this town, having undergone the necessary examination for the diploma, was admitted a member of the Royal College of Surgeons at a meeting of the Court of Examiners on the 9th instant. PEMBROKE-DOCK.—A public meeting in connection with the Auxiliary Branch of the Society was held at the Tem- perance Hall, on Thursday, when addresses were delivered by the deputation from the parent society and several other ministers. Mr William Edwards (Gwillym Padarn), a distinguished and talented individual, well known amongst the literati of Wales, has just died. Mr. Edwards distinguished himself at various Eisteddfodau, and gained several prizes and medals at these meetings. He was for many years a con- i tributor to various Welsh periodicals, and published two volumes of poems, entitled "Eos Padarn," and Y'* Coniedydd."

INVENTION FOR SUBMERGING SUBMARINE CABLBS.—A rather numerous meeting of engineers was held at the Town- jnall, Manchester, on Wednesday morning, to receive from lir. John de la Haye (of the firm of De la Hayeand Bloom) an explanation of a new invention, for which he has taken out a patent, for submerging submarine electric cables. Mr. Richard Roberts presided, and Mr. De la Haye said his attention had been drawn to the subject by the failures in laying the Mediterranean and Atlantic Telegraph cables. The pi n he would adopt would be to encase a cable pre- pared like that for the Atlantic Ocean in a soluble compound (the composition of which he would now now mention), capable of floating it for a time on the surface of the water. The coating he proposed to use for this purpose he supposed would hold it on the surface of the waves while about five miles of cable were payed out from the vessel before it began to dissolve, and as it would dissolve gradually, so the cable would sink gradually to the bed of the ocean. By this means he calculated that there would always be about five miles of cable lying on the surface of the water in the wake of the vessel, and the remainder would describe an incline to within 100 or 200 feet of the bed of the ocean, so that there would be comparatively little strain and consequently less liability of breakage. The cable would descend-into the ocean almost horizontally instead of nearly perpendicularly. Some questions were put to Mr. De la Haye. which he answered, but his proposition will be sufficiently understood from the above short outline of his plan, RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.—In the year 1856 the number of passenger trains despatched along our lines was 944,664: and the passengers were more than that number multiplied a thousand times—they were nearly a hundred and thirty millions; that is, more than four times the entire population of the three kingdoms, and not very far short of the popula- tion 01 our Eastern empire. In exact figures, the number was 129,347,592. Now, including with the past year the two preceding years, of which the traffic was not so great, nor its security so high, we find that the total number of accidents during them was three hundred and twenty-six. One accident, however, might involve more injuries than another, or than half a dozen others and taking, therefore, the number of killed and wounded in proportion to the number carried, we find the following results -There is one killed in every sixteen millions of travellers, or very nearly so, the average figure being 16,168,449; and there is one hurt in each half million, or rather less—that is, in each 458,170. This implies that one individual out of, not sixteen millions, but every half million passengers, finds himself involved in an accident; only that, generally speaking, he is not killed, bnt mcrely mangled or hurt. In other words, there are thirty-three, instead of one, who are involved in an accident out of every sixteen millions and odd but of the thirty-three, thirty-two survive in a more or less mutilated condition, only the one perishing. This is the real and genuiue meaning of the above figures; and we need not say the source from which we get them—the Board or iraae report—must De considered periectly impartial, because it is disinterested. But there is a further and very noteworthy statement to this effect-that among the three hundred and twenty-six "accidents" recorded as having oecurred from 1853 to 1856, only fifty-five of them were properly accidental; two hundred and seventy-one of those so-called accidents are pronounced to have been avoidable and preventable catastrophes. This is a most serious and appalling proportion, when it is remembered that we have a I Tiht to require—and a right to inquire it under capital pain at need—that not one reasonably preventible or avoidable catastrophe shall occur.-Post. RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR MANCHESTER.—On Wednes- day morning, as the Lancashire and Yorkshire train from Southport, due in Manchester at 9.45, was approaching Manchester on a sharp curve at Windor-bridge it came into collision with an unattached engine crossing the line. The driver had seen the obstruction and was trying to stop the train, but owing to the slippery state of the rails from a fog during the night did not succeed. The collision was not a severe one, but it was sufficiently violent to throw nearly all the passengers from their seats, and many of them received rather severe contusions about the face and head. Dr. Wood and his wife, of Southport, were passengers, and were sitting opposite each other in a first- class carriage. They were thrown against each other with such violence that the Doctor was rendered insensible for a time, and Mrs. Wood sustained a deep cut in the scalp of one of her temples by one of her hair-combs being driven into the flesh, and they were removed to the Clarence Hotel, Manchester, where it was found desirable to put Mrs. Wood to bed, and they were attended by Dr. Harrisou, medical officer of the company. Dr. Wood also sustained a scalp wound, but there is reason to believe that neither of them is very severely injured. Four or five others of the passengers were severely bruised, and were attended by Dr. Harrison, who, with the officers of the company, did all in his power to render them assistance. No limbs were fractured, and there is reason to hope that no fatal consequences will result. A CLIMAX.—A Yankee, boasting of a visit which he had paid the Queen, clinched his remarks by declaring, I should have been invited to stay to dinner, but it was wwhing day.

I THE CORN TRADE. CORN-EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, Wednesday, Oct. 21. The supply of English corn, grain, and flour this week is more moderate than.of late; but of foreign oats again large, and wheat and barley limited. A few Irish oats only have come to hand. To-day the market is exceedingly dull for everything, and with a very thinattenaance of buyers. The wheat trade is nominally the same'as on Monday last, and but very little progress is keing made with what was left over from last market day, a good quantity of which is inferior in quality' Barley Temains in the same dull state, without any change in value. In oats there is very little doing at Monday's prices. Flour the same as before the new Canadian is of very various quality, the finest being worth 34s. per barrel- Beans and peas without change. DUBLIN, October 20. There was a small supply of all kinds of grain at market to-day. The- currencies of Friday were generally suppoded, and rather higher rates were realized for the best qualities of feeding oats. Indian corn met a very slow demand, at late quotations. HULL, October 20. The weather this week has been damp, but exceedingly mild for the season of the year. A great breadth of land has been sown with wheat in the earlier districts in the best possible order. A finer autumn for all kinds of agriculture labour could scarcely be desired. The arrivals of wheat and barley continue liberal; of other descriptions of grain the import is only trifling. The wheat trade has again ruled exceedingly dull, and prices are still tending downwards. The depression of last week has been further augmented by the advance in the rate of discount to 8 per cent., and transactions are limited to the urgent want of millers, who have been enabled to supply themselves at a decline of Is to 2s per quarter on the best qualities, while secondary descriptions are altogether neg- lected. The tightness of the money-market has quite put a stop to general business; orders for autumn shipments have been countermanded, and all parties seem determined to re- strict operations, and act with caution until the present dis- turbed condition of monetary affairs shows some symptoms of improvement. At to-day's market there was a small supply of English wheat, which was taken off by millers at a deoline of Is to 2s per quarter. Foreign met fair retail inquiry at the re- duction noted during the week. Spring corn met a slow sale, at barely late rates. NEWCASTLE, Oct. 20. At this mornings' market wheat met a limited demand, at a decline of Is to 2s per quarter on the week. In other grain no alteration. At the cattle-market to-day the trade in beasts was steady. at firmer rates. Sheep in slow deftand, at jd per pound de- cline. Pigs sold slowly, and prices were lower, part remain. ing unsold.

TRADE REPORT. Wednesday Evening. SUGAR.-There was but one auction of 2,165 bags Penang, that was chiefly disposed of; good and fine brown at 40s to 42s and middling to good yellow, at 44s to 47a 6d per cwt. Privately more business has been doing, upwards of 1,000 hhds. Cuba Muscovado have been taken by the refiners, and there have also been sold 470 boxes Havanhah, a few hundred bags of Mauritius and white Siam, and, of West India, 503 hhds. COFFEE. —The market continues flat; some trifling sales have been made privately at low prices 360 bags native Ceylon were withdrawn from auction. RICE AND SALTPETRE dull, and scarcely anything doing. TALLOW.-The market is firmer to-day; 56s 9d is paid on the spot, 56s 3d for all the year, and 57a for January to March.

EXTRACTS FROM THIS WEEK'S PUNCH. I A distinguished antiquary wishes to know, in whose pos, session is the chair on which Verbum sat." A PLUCKY REPLY.—A Candidate for the Civil Service, being asked to name the principal divisions of the Anglo- Saxon race, answered Epsom and Newmarket. ONB WHO CLKABLT KNOWS HIMSELF. I A celebrated flute-player, who was asked, What is a I Man ?" answered quite naively, Why, a man is a very stupid animal: at least, judging, as far as one can, from oneself." MOBE REFORMS. I The eminent Jockey-Statesman, Lord Derby, has given notice of a measure for Turf Reform, which is. at least, as likely to give satisfaction as Lord Palmerston's for Reform of another kind. The Earl proposes, "That all bets on handi- caps made previously to the publication of the weights shall be null and void." Very well; but why not the Earl and his party carry the same just principle into politics? Why not decide that I -all attacks made on the proceedings of a Government, until it is known what they are, shall be deemed unfair ?" To be sure, it would throw Mr. Disraeli out of employment, but oompensation might be annnged Does not the Earl want a helper in some of his stabf ? Punch knows nobody who can toss about a litter more vigo- rously than Ben, to say nothing of his preternatural talent at finding mares' nests. EXIT STULTUS. I An extremely foolish contributor, whom we have some- times employed when his betters were gone bathing, lectur. ing, pheasant-shooting, and the like, says that the lying messages brought by the electric wire make it perfectly proper to call the dispatch a Tell-a-cram. He is discharged, BADLY BROUGHT UP. I A Swell-Mobsman, hearing a moralist enlarge on the benefits of self-examination, said: It was all very fine, but he had often been before the Magistrate of the Thames Police-court, and he must say he didn't like a SELPE-EX- amination at all! oun NATIONAL DEFENCES. I Some public-house patriot was repeating the old National boast that an Englishman's House is his Castle." I am not to positive about that," said a critic of the Westminster Review but I am sure that an Englishwoman's Dress is Her Castle; for it is such an enormous size now, that it is morally and physically impossible for any one, friend or enemy, to come near her!" A FRESH-WATER NAVY. I The Prussian Government has issued a proclamation, in which it humanely recommends all sailors employed in the Prussian Navy to take, before going to sea, five or six drops of ch loroform, in a wineglassful of barley-water, as it is considered an admirable preventive against the horrors of sea-sickness.

A DBSEKVINO MAN.—" Do you know Mr. Brown ?" Yes, my dear." Is he not a very deserving man ? "Yes, he deserves a flogging, and if he ever gallants you home again, I will give it to him I" Exit wife, in a fright. BAD NEIGHBOURS.—" Shon," said a Dutchman, you may say what you please 'bout bad neighbours I had te vorst neighbours as never was. Mine pigs and mine hens come home mit their ears split, and todder day two of them come home miasin." AN INTENDED ROMISH CHURCH TO BE A PROTES- TANT CHURCH.—A correspondent gives us the following account of the church built by Daniel O'ConneU's pro- tege We are happy to hear that the church built by the late Mr. Raphael, M. P., at St. Alban's, and intended by him for a Roman Catholic church, at a eost of more than E8,000, has fallen by his death into better hands An excellent lady, Mrs. Worley, residing at New Barns, of ample fortune, a most deteimined supporter of the orthodox Protestant Churah, has purchased it at about one third the original eost, and is now fitting up the in- terior at an expense of E2,000, with a residence for the officiating clergyman also. She will endow it and present it to St. Alban's as a chapel-of-ease. Illesterta Timet. THE HOUSEHOLDERS FLOUR ANL BREAD COMPANY (LI- MITED).-In reference to this case, the Times publishes four more letters. Mr. T. E. Weller, of 15, Duke-street, Adel- phi, states that he never bad anything to do with the company, nor authorised the use of his name as one of the directors;" Mr. Styles, of Knotk-ball farm, Swanscombe, that he was "surprised to see his name published as a director, as he never had any interest or communication with the company. The Rev. H. P. Haughton, of South- end, Essex, that be has not had any connexion with the company that upon being solicited he distinctly de- clined to become one of its trustees; and that upon observing that his name appeared as such in i a prospec- tus he desired that it should be forthwith withdrawn and from Mr. H. Croysdill, accountant, that "so far from hating been one of the auditors, he never before even heard of the company, and that the use of his name in the pro- spectus was wholly without his authority." The whole affair would appear to show the necessity that exists for the fullest publicity in such cases,—first, as suggesting to per- sons of responsibility how circumspect they should be in lending their names towards the formation of companies which may turn out to be only bubbles, or something more and next, to the publio, that they be not deluded into be- l coming shareholders in companies by the appearance of rc- spectable names in proapoetuses.

I SPAIN. As the new Spanish Government will not be formed until after the arrival in Madrid or M. Mon, it would be idle to reproduce the names which are mentioned by letters from the Spanish capital as destined to figure in the new ad- ministration. It is, however, worthy of attention that some of the principal journals of Madrid incline towarth tho new Cabinet. The Diario ElpatWl, the Epoea (former organ of the O'Donnell party), the Occidente, the Fenix, and finally the Cortes (a liberal paper), express themselves more or less in favour of Admiral Armero, and against the talleu ad- ministration.

( PRUSSIA. Tho Independence Beige publishes the text of a private despatch addressed by the Prussian government, and signed by M. de Manteuffel, to the Prussian representatives at foreign Courts. In this document, which bean the date of the 28th of May last. M. de Manteuffel carefully avoids declaring either in favour of or against the union of the Da- nubian Principalities. He simply refers to the instructions given to the Prussian Commissioner. The withes of the Divans, the suzerainty of the Porte, and the integrity of the Ottoman Empire are pointed out as the chief elements to be considered. Prussia reserves her vote as regards the union until the Special Commission shall have, accoiding to the 25th Article of the Treaty of Paris, laid before the assembly of the Plenipotentiaries of the Powers that signed the Treaty of Paris the results of its investigations. In short, M. de Manteuffel says that Prussia only desires a strict, full, and faithful execution of the Treaty of Paris. The advices from Berlin of the 20th state that the Tfing remains in the same state. His Majesty slept soundly at night.
