RHYL. THE ENGLISH WESLEYAN CIRCUIT. — The March Quarterly Meeting (the most important m the year) in connection with the Rhyl English Wesleyan circuit was held at Epworth Lodge on the afternoon of Friday, the 23rd inst. The meeting was presided over by the Rev. H. W. Jackson, B.A., as deputy for the Chairman of the Liverpool District, whose duty it is to visit circuits like Rhyl—being a single station—once a year. In addition to the Rev. Thomas Rippon (superintendent of the circuit) there was also a good attendance of office- bearers and others. The financial statement presented by Mr Hazlehurst was regarded as very satisfactory, there being an improvement in the state of the funds of about £20 as com- pared with the balance sheet submitted at the corresponding meeting last year. The Super- intendent presented the statistical statement of members in society. The figures given were —in full membership; 105 on trial, 7; being an increase of 7 on the previous quarter. In the junior classes 67 members were reported, being an increase of 3. The Rev. Thomas Rippon was heartily and unanimously invited to remain in the circuit another year, and thns complete the full connexional term of three years. The invitation was warmly supported by Mr G. S. Hazlehurst, J.P., Mr G. F. Gunnei, Mr A. L. Clews, Mr Elliott, and Mr Joseph Williams. The invitation was accepted. The Sunday School statistics were given by Mr Elliott, shewing a total of 163 scholars in the circuit (which includes Rhyl and Prestatyn), being an increase of 9. The question of a successor to the Rev. T. Rippon for the Con- ference of 1889 was considered, and it was, resolved to communicate with ministers not yet engaged. The meeting was a most pleasant and happy one. m „ A COMMISSIONER DISQUALIFIED THROUGH NON-ATTENDANCE.—We are sorry to learn that in consequence of the pressure of other business Mr G S. Hazlehurst, J.P., has been unable to record the required number of attendances at the meetings of the Rhyl Improvement Com- missioners and that as a result he has been: declared disqualified. The vacancy thus caused will not have the effect of increasing the num- ber to be elected on the 12th prqximo; but will be filled up, after due notice, by the Com- missioners themselves. ST. ASAPH AND RHYL COUNTY COURT.—All summonses against persons residing out ot this district, for the next court to be holden at a Asaph, on Friday, the 20th April, 1888, should be entered not later than Tuesday. 3rd April, and those in the district not later tlian Thurs- day, 6th April, j, ENGLISH WESLIYAN CHAPEL. Our readers will observe from our advertising columns that a special service will be held on Good Friday morning, when the Rev. David Jones, of Prestatyn, will preach. The Rev. Professor Slater, of Didsbury College, will occupy the pulpit on Easter Sunday, morning and evening. RESIGNATION OF THE REV. D. B. HOOKE.— At a special meeting of the members of Christ Church, held to consider the resignation of the Rev. D. B. Hooke, it was unanimously resolved —" that this meeting regretfully and reluctantly accepts Mr Hooke's resignation, and while recognising with gratitude the invaluable services rendered by him during his connection with this church, under exceptionally difficult circumstances, it prays that, through the bless- ing of Almighty God, he may be made still more useful in his new and largely-extended sphere of labour. It desires also to express to Mrs Hooke its lively gratitude for the great interest she has manifested in its efforts, and the invariable kindness and readiness with which she has co-operated in all good works. It also trusts that the interests of Mr and Mrs Hooke in this Church may be maintained in the future as earnestly and affectionately as in the past-"—It will be seen from our advertising columns that, after three Sundays' absence, Mr Hooke will preach on Sunday next at Christ Church.

QUEEN STREET CHAPEL SUNDAY SCHOOL MEETING.—The annual Sunday School meeting in connection with the Welsh Congregational Chapel, Queen-street, took place on Sunday last. In the morning meeting Mr David Davies, Freelands, presided, and Mr Richard Jones, 51, West Parade, presided over the afternoon meeting. The various classes were catechised by Messrs Arthur Rowlands and J. Griffiths in St. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians, and the Gospel of St. Mark. The answers to the different questions were ready and spon. taneous Several congregational hymns (which are intended to be sung at the forthcoming meeting of the Vale, of Clwyd Congregational United Sunday Schools), were sung with great effect Representatives from the Denbigh and Abergele Congregational Sunday Schools were present, and expressed themselves well pleased with the meetings. In the evening a service of song was held under the presidency of Mr A. Rowlands. In addition to several congrega- tinnal hvmns, the chapel choir, under the leadership ?f Mr Thomas Whitley, Abbey- street, sang in exoellent style, the anthems- "Tevrnasoedd y Ddaear," Concwest, and "Addoliad," the two former being anthems which the choir intend competing for at a com- petitive meeting to be held on Good 1 nday. Mr Green, of Denbigh, read an interesting Daner on The Sunday School, and Mr John ffies Denbigh, also delivered a suitable address. The meetings were throughout high- lv interesting, and great praise is due to Mr l. WUtley for the efforts he has made to secure efficient congregational ringing in Queen-street ( ^MIXIRRN'B TBIOH<B3 AND BloTOLaa.

ALF SANDOE is now arranging for a rep- resentation of the great American domestic drama "Hazel Kirke," in which he has so successfully and repeatedly played the part of "Dunstan Kirke." The drama will be acted at the Town Hall, on the 17 th of April, when Mr Sandoe will be supported by a strong caste of local amateurs. It is unnecessary to dilate on the histrionic abilities displayed by young Sandoe. He has already made his mark on the provincial stage. Poets, it is said, are born, not made. The same expression can be ap- plied with equal truth to actors, it would seem, for in Mr Sandoe the art of impersonation is inherent. In the above drama "Dunstan Kirke is his big part, and this, coupled with the fact that he is supported by some well-known amateurs, ought to draw. At any rate we hope it will.

CONCERT.—On Tuesday, a concert was held at the Town Hall for the benefit of Mr John- Jones, Vaughan-street, who has been suffering" from a severe illness, which has totally incapa- citated him from following his employment for a number of years. The chair was occupied by J. Asher, Esq., and there was a fairly large attendance. Several local amateurs readily gave their services, and the concert was a most enjoyable one. At the close Mr Asher, on be. half of Mr John Jones, returned thanks to the performers for their kindness in coming forward,, and moved that a hearty vote of thanks be accorded them. This was seconded by Mr R. D Roberts, and unanimously carried.

ELECTIOE OF GUARDIANS.—The nominations for the annual election of Guardians for the Union of St A saph closed on Monday last. The parish of Rhuddlan is divided into two wards, the Urban (i.e., the district of Rhyl), and the Rural (i.e.. Rhuddlan and the out townships); three Guardians being required for the former, and two for the latter. In the Urban Ward a contest this year again has been avoided the three gentlemen nominated being Messrs B. Littler, Bodhyfryd; Jacob Jones, Bodeuron and J. Foulkes, Mbert Villa. The two iatter gentlemen are new members, and take the places of Mr. Winston, (resigned), and Mr Perks, J.P., who is now an ex-offrcio member of the Board, as a county magistrate. Neither will there be a contest in the rural ward. Messrs W. Bell and Chas. Jones (Cwybr Bach) being the only gentlemen nominated. There will, however, be a spirited contest for the Parish of St. Asaph, the following candi- dates having been nominated for the four seats, viz-—Messrs Thos. Parry, Faenol Fawr D. R. Davies. Penrhwylfa; Thos- Howes Roberts, Bodhaulog Jos. Lloyd, Elwy Grove; Rev. Watkin Williams, Bodenvyddan Rectory; Dr. A. E: Davies, P. Roberts, Mount Street, and Richard Lewis, Hafod Elwy. Mr D. R. Davies, Penrhwylfa, and Mr Richard Lewis, Hafod Elwy, are, however, disqualified from acting. The voting papers will be delivered on the 7th of April, and the votes will be counted on the 10th of April. DEATH OF MR JOHN WILLIAMS, LATE OF LLANDDULAS MILLS-—We regret to have to announce the death of Mr. John Williams, late of Llanddulas Mills, which took place after a short illness at Rhyl on Saturday last. Mr Williams was a great number of years a faith- ful and active member of the Congregational cause at Llanddulas, and it was principally II owing to his efforts that the cause in that village was brought to its present state. Several years ago he removed to Rhyl, and since his residence here has been A faithful member of the Congregational Church, Queen- street. He was a constant attendant at all its meetings, and as a Sunday School teacher, and an exponent of the Scriptures, he exercised a powerful influence on the young men and others he had under his care. The funeral took place at Colwyn on Wednesday. The members of the Queen-street Chapel were ignorant of the arrangements, and consequently much to their regret they were unable to be present. HAGUE'S MINSTRELS'. — This talented and popular minstrel troupe gave two entertain- ments in the Town Hall this week—on Wed- nesday and Thursday evenings; a change of programme taking place each night. The audiences, though not by any means small, were not so large as have usually patronised the troupe in Rhyl; but, of course, the present visit took place at a less favourable time of the year. The entertainment was excellent; and the applause was loud and frequent. The terpischorean flag tournament was indeed grand; and the musical performances—vocal and instrumental—were faultless. We hope. this clever troupe will favour us with another visit during the season. • "MwRoft" AND THE SILVER WEDDING.— Copies of Mr R. D. Roberts' (Mwrog) song on the silver wedding of the Prince and Princess of Wales were sent to her Majesty and thej1: Royal Highnesses. They were acknowledged in the following kindly terms :—" General Sir Henry F. Ponsonby has received the Queen's commands to thank Mr Roberts for sending the verses which accompanied his letter of the 8th instant.—Privy Purse Office, Buckingham Palace, S.W., 10th March, 1888." — "Marl- borough House, Pall Mall, S-W.—The Comp- troller of the Household is directed to thank Mr R. D. Roberts for his kind congratulations and loyal verses on the occasion of the cele- bration of the silver wedding of T.R.H. the Prince and Princess of Wales.—March 14th, 1888." ENGLISH BAPTIST CHAPEL ANNUAL TEA PARTY.—The annual tea party in connection with the English Baptist Chapel, Sussex Street, was held at the Lecture Room, on Wednesday. At 5 o'clock a numerous and select company sat down to an excellently prepared tea. The tables were tastefully decorated with a large quantity of flowers, and the viands provided were of a superior character. Every effort was made to ensure the complete comfort of the guests, who seemed greatly to appreciate the arrangements. The following ladies presided over the tea tables:—Mrs Foote, Mrs W. P. Jones, Mrs Slinn, Mrs Jones, Abbey Street; Mrs Lee, Mrs Everatt. Mrs Walmsley, Mrs Robbins, Mrs Remington, Mrs Gittoes, Mrs Roberts, Bath Street, Mrs Royston, assisted by Miss Slinn, Miss Hammond, Mr Homan, Mr McEwen, and Mr Bobbins. In the evening the Rev. P. D. McPherson, B.D., Liverpool (successor to the late Rev. Hugh Stowell Brown), preached an eloquent sermon to a large congregation.

THE STAE BOWKBTT BUILDING SOCIETY.—An adjourned meeting of persons favourable to the establishment of a branch of the above society in Rhyl was held on Monday last, but the attendance being small, it was resolved to further adjourn the meeting until after the Easter holidays, it being thought that the holidays would render it inconven- ient for tradesmen and others to attend. In the meantime, we would recommend the working- wen to study well the principles of this society. MB H. J. B. LAWBENOE, one of the retiring commissioners this year,, and who hesitated as to whether he would seek re-election, has, we under- stand, finally resolved to stand; and has been duly nominated by Dr. Q-irdlestone, J.P., and Mr S.

MAJORITY OF MR. DAVID PHJNNANT NANTLLYS. The heir of Nantllys attains his majority on the 16th prox and the leading parishioners of Tremeirchion and Bodfary have taken steps to honour the house of Pennant-a name of ancient lineage-on the auspicious occasion. Mr P. p, Pennant and his family are univer- sally respected, not only in their own town and adioining parish, but throughout Flintshire, to say the least. As a magistrate, ex-officio way- warden, and poor law guardian, Mr Pennant is rightly regarded as one of the best men in the county. The unflagging interest he takes in affairs pertaining to matters of local importance, shows his deep concern for the welfare of his neighbours. Therefore, it is no wonder that the parishes (Bodfary and Tremeirchion) com- pete in friendly rivalry to celebrate the coming of nge of his son, Mr David Pennant, in a fitting manner. Last week an informal meet- ing of friends and neighbours was held, and which resulted in the convening of a general meeting, held on Tuesday evening, at the Ffynnon Beuno Inn, Tremeirchion. There were present at the public meeting :—The Rev. Canon Browne (Bodfary), Rev. E. J- Edwards (Tremeirchion), Messrs Edwin Morgan, J.P., John Roberts (Geinas), Wm. Jones (Nant- cwilym), Roberts (Hendre1, Rowland (The Warren), Hughes (Adwywynt), R. Lloyd (Ffynnon Beuno), Rees (schoolmaster)^ D. Williams (county surveyor), Thos. Matthews (Bryn Ibbot), R. Davies (Bodfary), John Roberts (Glyn), Isaac Jones (smithy), W. Owen (Bryn), W. Roberts (Bodfary Schools), &c. Mr E. Morgan explained the object of the meeting, and proposed that Col. Mesham, an old friend of the Pennant family and of them all, should be appointed* chairman.—The Rev. Canon Browne seconded the motion, but said that inasmuch as Col. Mesham was not present he would propose that Mr Morgan be appointed vice-chairman, and asked to preside at that meeting.—This was unanimously agreed to. In taking the chair Mr Morgan referred to the depression in the country, and remarked that as there were several demands upon the purses of the people they must not expect large contributions. All who would subscribe would no doubt give as much as they could, and whether the amount was large or small they I would all join to express their esteem and respect for the house of Pennant (cheers). A conversation ensued as to the mode pro- posed to be adopted for the. celebration. Canon Browne was strongly in favour of having separate demonstrations in Bodfary and in Tremeirchion. In fact he had made up his mind to give the school children of Bodfary a treat at his own expense, but if the committee liked to supplement it by a few prizes for little athletic games, and so on, well and good.—The Chairman observed that that would make two affairs of it. He was under the impression that it was decided the parishes should amalgam. ate. They might have two demonstrations governed by one committee, elected from the two parishes.—Mr Browne did not think that could be done. Perhaps Bodfary would want one thing and Tremeirchion would not care for it. The taste of the Tremeirchion people might be sufficiently refined to go in for sack and donkey races (laughter), but they would not have such inhumanities at Bodfary (laugh- ter)—Mr Morgan said that it had been suggest- ed to make arrangements to give tea to the children of both parishes at the Nantllys farm yard, and to have general rejoicings after- wards.—Mr Browne had made up his mind to confine the Bodfary demonstration to Bodfary. —To bring the matter to a point, Mr Robert Lloyd proposed that one general fund be formed for the purpose of celebrating the event at the two parishes. This was seconded and carried unanimously. On the motion of Mr John Roberts (Geinas) it was resolved to apply local subscriptions only to defray the costs of tea parties to the children, and the rejoicings. Outside subscriptions, supplemented by any balance that might remain after defraying the costs of the festivities, to be used for making a suitable presentation to Mr David Pennant to mark his coming of age.-A committee was then formed to carry out the arrangements, with Mr 1 Mr John Roberts (Geinas) and Mr Wm. Owen (Bryn) as treasurers, and Mr Robt. Lloyd as secretary.

The last-named gentleman objected to stand on the ground that he could not read or write, and it was ultimately decided t) name Mr John Roberts, Brynpolyn Bach, in his stead. Mr i J. Jones, Riverdale, one of the retiring overseers, said he was pleased to be able to state that the new officers would have a clean bi 1 of health, as there were but very little arrears outstanding." Follow- ing, the electing of waywardens was gone into, they being this time elected for the parish, and not for the township as heretofore. Mr W. G. Jones said he would like to know how the farmer wardens had acted and attended, as he thought that those who did not take proper interest in the parish should not be elected.

Mr Murray BrovvDesaid that the matter was one entirely for the discretion of the .Medical Officer; ,^r Browne's) sympathy waa with those who had brought the matter forward. In large unions they had almost dispensed entirely with the use of stimulants, still it was an extremely delicate matter to interferp. with any order that might be made by the Medical Officer. resolved that the Medical Officer be re- quested to discontinue the use of stimulants as much as possible. THE LATE CHAPLAIN. r.3r^irt?a.n t'iat t^e present was a fitting ffi? f!hD1ly ^0,'re or t0 the death of their late chap- lain (the Rev I. Brown), who, as they were well aware, had died since the last Board meeting. M* Brown had been chaplain of the house for about 30 years, and from what he (the Chairman) had seen of him he had been a most excellent chaplain in every way,and was exceedingly devoted to his duties, andvery careful in attending to the spiritual >\ ants of the inmates; and he thought the least they could do was to propose a vote of condolence with his relations (hear, hear.) The motion was seconded by Mr J. Briscoe, and unanimously carried. On the motion of Mr Joseph Lloyd,it was resolved to defer the election of a successor to Mr Brown until the first meeting of the new Board. THB SCHOOL CHILDREN. The deputy-Chaplain (Rev W. Williams) reported that he had examined the children. They answered very well, but were deficieut in reasoning power. They could repeat a thing very well, but were unable to explain its meaning. He recommended that more attention should be paid to the cultiva- tion of the reasoning powers of the children, and less to memory. ON THE SILVER WEDDING OF THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES. The following lines were read by the author at th<^ *6 Pleasant i/vening*" on Monday erenmg Five and-twenty years ago, England's youthful heir went forth, To the regions of the North, Armed with Love's unerring bow Saw a maiden wondrous fair, Left his heart behind him there, Guarded by a lover's vow. Five-aud-twenty years ago, Came a Princess to this land Came to gain that lover's hand; Came her own heart to bestow. And, the suushine of her smiles, Thrilled with rapture all these Isles, As she stood in beauty's glow. Five-and-twenty years have gone, ileaven, their royal home has blast; From that genial peaceful rest, Love's sweet pledges have upgrown. Wife and mother prize we more Than when first she touched onr show— He, unrivalled, holds his own. Five-and-twenty years combined, .Bless the silver wedding dav • Now, the Poet in his lay, Brings a nation's heart, enshrined Full of praise and gratitude, For what's best in womanhood For what's noblest in mankind. Through a longer life again May their happy union last, With more lustre ih m the past Till the summit they uttain. May it ripen into gold, nd the future yet uniultl, Rieslings of a glorious reign. -p- ,R MOSTTN WILLIAMS. Ruyl, Marc.il 10th, 1888.

RHYL PLEASANT EVENINGS." The last, with the exception of the conver- sazione, of the fifth series of the Rhyl Pleasant Evenings was held at Christ Church Lecture Hall, on Monday, when the chair was occupied by James Y. Strachan, Esq., manager of the North and South Wales Bank. Special interest attached to this meeting for the reason of its being the last in which Mr Hooke would take part in his capacity as pastor of Christ Church, and there was a large and influential audience. The Chairman, who was received with loud applause, said it was not within the province of a chairman of a gathering similar to that one to make a long speech, but he could not allow that opportunity pass without expressing his deep regret that they were about to lose from their midst one who by the generous support he had extended to all laudable movements had endeared himself to the hearts of all of them (applause). Personally, he was almost a stranger to the town, but although he had not been here long, he had, since his residence here, realized the fact that Mr Hooke had been doing a noble work, and had exerted himself in every movement having for its object the promotion of the religious welfare of the town (applause); therefore, he had no hesitation in declaring on their behalf, as well as his own. their apprecia- tion of his efforts and the good he had done, and if the important change he was about to make was to his benefit, he trusted they were sufficiently disinterested to wish him, with all their hearts, God speed in his new sphere of labour, and their heart-felt desire was that he might be longer spared to be a pattern of usefulness in that new sphere (cheers). He believed that this entertainment was the last of the season, and they had to realize the fact that they were about to lose the moving spirit who had provided such enjoyable entertainments for some four or five years. But although they were about losing Mr Hooke, he trusted that those gatherings would continue to be carried on (hear, hear). He thought' they also owed a deep debt of gratitude to the ladies and gentle- men who so kindly volunteered their services from time to time, very often at great incon- venience and trouble to themselves, to con- tribute to their enjoyment, and the least tney could do was to show by large audiences how much they appreciated their services- -He would not trespass upon their time, but would at once proceed with the programme (loud *The following programme was then proceeded with Opening Hymn, Onward, Christian Soldiers," The Audience Brief address, The Chairman song, A merry little mermaid am I,"Miss Thomson;pianoforte solo,"Scherzo" Miss Hewitt; song, "WIth Such a Dainty Maid," Mr W.

To-night we "wind up" the fifth series of the Rhyl Pleasant Evenings." This is the 13th gathering, for the present winter, and nearly the 60th since [these entertainments began. For live years we have carried them on more or less success- fully, but chiefly more. When I cama to Rhyl, five winters ago, Wseemed to me a great pity that something was not done to afford 8musement;and re- creation during the long evenings, and with fear and trembling launched the little barque called Pleasant Evenings, on the sea of public opinion. Since then several others have launched somewhat similar vessels, and some of them have had success- ful voyages. I am glad of their success. Let us have free trade even in Pleasant Evenings. May friendly competition only lead to improvements. To-night the winding up time has in a double sense come. It is a good thing to know when to leave off and how to do it. Some people don t. That parish clerk, a kind hearted old fellow, who used to declare that he had become" a lion to his mother's children," instead of an alien, was evidently one, for on one occasion he gave out that Mr A and Mr B-wouldpreaoh every Sunday to all eternity." Evidently there was no winding up there, but he had made a mistake, for he should have said alternately." It is som^mes we l that the winding up sbonld be gradual. So at least said an old toper who belonged to that clasa of me one of whom is said to haveaddressed saving that he was better than it, for while the moon was only full once a month, everv night.

Piteous were his cries for aid. His wife ran out of the house, and looking down the well saw her John piteously seek- ing to be rescued. The bucket was lowered, and John laying hold of the rope began to think himself saved, a? his wife turning the handle brought him a little way up the well. Alas, it slipped, and John fell back Again fehe tried, this time he got a little further on, when again the rope slipped, and Kfell John again. A thnd tune she triod, j j. i *1, T/Vhn began to see the shore, and was and at length \^gdeliverance, when again the about to rejoice John's fall was greater and rope slipped, aDd poor tQ 6u8pect that sorer than ever. -C0" D him, and angrily some trick was being playe Q jes8 Bharply remonstrated with his wi > -nSf his reasoning returned that she was only thing all at once, -that it was not well togiv P. degrees, that it that everything must be do hage would be must be one step at a time, or the John too great for poor human uatu wea that if was beaten with his own logic, well, he only he were rescued at once ir thraldom would by one step rescue himseu lr own of drink.

Taking the most hopeful view, we shall not all meet thus again, and if f°r this fact only, it ig more than enough to wish that our meetmg8 had been better, and especially that these addresses had been more finished and complete-, yet at that I have not aimed—they have made no pretence to be more than the plainest, most homely talk. Au fact, you cannot say as a farmer once did to a preacher—" You are not so good a preacher as our l»st wan was." "Am I not?" asked the preacher. In what do I fail?"

WELSH JOTTINGS. Mr T. E. Ellis has been placed upon the Grand Committee for Trade. It is rumoured that Mr Raikes may succsed Sir Hercules Robinson in South Affrica. Dividend of 10 per cent. on the consolidated stock and 7 per cent. on the ordinary shares of the Wrex- ham Gas Co., have been declared. A1 thirty-fourth half-yearly meeting, last week, ot the shareholders in the North W»les Har- row Gauge Railway Company the report states that receipts for the half-year show the satisfactory in. crease of £ 308 Is. 8id over the corresponding half- year of 1886. There had been an increase in the passenger receipts of;682 19s. 6-2'd, and in the re- oeipts from goods and mineral traffic of £ 201 lis 6d. It was stated that there was now a balance in hand sufficient to pay jEt per cent. in respect of arrears of interest due on the B Debenture Stock. HL £ rah/an Tele9raph reports the arrival of Mr U. W. lay lor, the Liberal candidate for West Den- bighshire, and Mrs Taylor, upon their return from A U COUUTRY» AN(I the warm welcome they received. A banquet was given in honour of Mr Taylor's re- turn by the councillors and officers of the citr and another banquet was to be given to Mr Taylor bv the citizens generally. The paper has a portrait of Mr Taylor, with a sketch of his life; and the Mel- bourne Herald has a column of an interview sketch of his travels and experiences. A branch of the Church Army has been established at Wrexham under the command of Capt. Clayton. The Vicar, the Rev.

Daring the past week levels have been taken on tJ Liverpool-road, Chester, for the 1. IV Cheshire Lines Railway from the Northgate Station, Chester, to the new bridge over the Dee, beyond Queen s Ferry. The work will be co- aienced shortly. The line will cross the Liverpool-road above the house occupied by Mr Birch, solicitor, and thence across the meadows to the SaDghall- road, which it passes over, and proceed in front of Blacon Hall. After reaching the now bridge over the Dee the course of the rails, which are to be double ones, will be nearly in a direct line over the country to the Mersey tunnel, thus forming a diruct route to Liverpool. After crossing the Dee bridge, the Wrexham, Mold, and Connah's Quay system meets the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln line from Cbesfor, and here there Jwill be an important station for the interchange of traffic, both from and into North Wales generally. It is anticipated that an important item of traffic will be from the salt district into Wales, and that the slack, now the drug at North Wales collieries, will be disposed of advantageously in that locality. The work of constructing the one-span swing bridge across the Dee, is making very rapid progress. The cylinders on which the bridge will work have been sunk into a solid foundation and built up, and the bridge itself Is now in process of erection, and will, it is expected, be completed well within the time stipulated.
