BANGOR POLICE COURT. TUESDAT, JUNE 28. Before Wm. Bulkeley Hughes, Esq., an(I J. V. H. Williams, CHANGE OF INTIMIDATION AGAlSST WORKMEN. Mr Morgan Richards v. James Thompson IUld Lewis Roberts.Thi* wah a charge of intimidation against two journeymen tailors in this city, occasioned by a strike" which had taken place among the men employed by Messn. M. & T. Richards, clothiers, of this city, in con. sequence of the introduction of a sewing machine upon the premises, The complainant conductedhisown case; Nir. Foulkes defending the men. Mr. Morgan Richards, 8worn, saidI am a waster tailor residing in Bangor, and employ from 10 to 20 men -and more if I could get them. I have recently intro- dtiewl a sewing machine into my establishment, in con- sequence of which, the men have struck. I offered them 5s. a week more wages if they would go on. They held a committee with the other tailors in the town, and it was agreed that they should not work with the ma- chine. 1 got some men from Liverpool, who were in- duced to leave town. I got another batch, and they also left; and now I have a third lot. The tailors, and amongst them the defendants, all combined toge- ther, and crowded round the door of the workshop, and every time my men go out, the others shout and hoot at them. On Monday morning, the polieeman came to me, and told me there was a large crowd round the workmen's todgings, and that they were afraid of going to their work. I went there, and seeing the crowd as he said, I told the officer I would come with him, and lead the men to their work at eight o'clock. We did so. There were between 40 and 60 men outside. When we got into the middle of the crowd, I heard Thompson shout out, Set at them, lads ? Lewis Roberts also made use of the same expression, and the other men in the crowd shouted, and made a great uproar. The work- men were very much terrified. They were afraid of go- ing to their work. This kind of proceeding h;18 been going on for some days. Cautioned both defendant* twice. Cross-examined by Mr. Fonlkes-Heard the two de- fendants calling iny men black sheep. I cautioned Ro- berts on Saturday. He and Thompson were in front of the men. I asked the policemen to take them into cus- tody, but he declined, saying I bad better take a sum- mons out againstthem, I have tmmmoued some of my myoId hands, for breach of contract, in the County Court. Police-officer Joseph Morris, said that he was wits complainant on Monday morning. He had three of hi own hand-* along with him. The crowd were very noisy. I did not hear any threatening language. Saw the de- fendants there. Heard Thompson may them on, send them on." Declined to apprehend them at Mr. Richards'request. Saw Robertd with Thnmon in the crowd. I called on Mr. Richards, fearing that his work- mcn would not be allowed to go to their work. I did not hear Lewis Roberts Bay anything; but I heard him singing. Cross-examined by Mr. rotilkes -Did not know all the men that were about at five o'clock in the morning. Cannot swear that the two defendants were there then. Did not hear what the men intended doing, T did not see any one laying his hands on or threatening Mr. Richards nor the men either; for aught I know the crowd were helping the men t,) go to their work. I don't understand much English, but understood Thomp- son say, send them on, lads." llc-examiued—-I saw the men going backwards and forwards in front of the workmcn's lodgings. Knew the men worked with Mr. Richards, and that there had been some interference before with them. Received or- ders from the Sergeant to watch the spot for fear any- thing should happen. It appeared the t'songo were di- rected against the workmen. Wm. Kllis said—I am one of complainant's work- men. Wan engaged last Wednesday. On Saturday a large crowd gathered around our lodgings. We were before a committee of workmen, who offered our fare to go out of town, which I declined. I saw Thompson among the committee. I cannot say if Roberts was there. On Saturday morning there was a crowd as be- forehand we thought it better not to go for some time. On Saturday evening a crowd followed us down the town, and on Sunday there was a amilll crowd. We heard some expressions which we considered opprobious. The Jerowd wpro singing and shouting. I did ngt hear Thompson or Roberts say anything to incite the crowd. We were half afraid, half ashamed to go out firat thing on Monday morning. Thompson was among the fore- most of the crowd. We should have been at work at half-past seven on Mouday morning, but we were afraid to go till Mr. Richards, and the police officer, came to fetch us. Cross-examined by Mr. Foulke-On Monday night somebody threw stones at us. The obstruction we com- plained of, is the apprehension of danger. The commit- tee offered us 2s. tid each, and to pay our fare back to Liverpool. No one told us that there wo* any violence to be committed. No one threatened us with violence. The crowd collected near the workshop at dinner time, and we were afraid of going out. Thompson came to me as the leader of a number of men, who wished us to leave the town in order to get rid of the sewing-ma- chino. Mr. Foulkea then addressed the Bench for defendants, and called Daniel Jones—Who said: I saw Lewis Roberts com- ing back from Llandegai before breakfast time. Saw some men near Mr. Meshach Roberts's place, but none in coming back. Joseph Reeves t3,ti(I-I was within two yards ot Thompson yesterday. I did not hear him say anything, or the expressions attributed to him. Cross-examined—I Raw Roberts also in the crowd. I don't understand Welsh. I cannot undertake to swear that Thompson said nothing. Mr. Richards did not caution me. Was not there when the last lot had been otFered some money to go away; but I heard that some had supper and breakfast, and I contributed to the money paid to them for going away. I did not hear RobeVts say anything. Saw him oming from the di- rection of the Penrhyn Arms at the time the men came from their lodgings. Could not say what he said be- tween there and James-street. Thompson was sentenced to one month's imprison- ment; Roberts to fourteen days'imprisonment—hard labour. Notice of appeal was given.

Parry anti Co., but no attention had been paid to it. The Clerk was directed to write again to Mr. Daniel Wil- liams, and Messrs. Parry, and state that unless the re- quirements of the Board were complied with in seven days, the work would be carried out by the Board at their expense. The wall that has been built to stop up the public road, was ordered to be pulled down, and the Clerk was directed to prevent any further encroach- ments.

Dear Rir,- I beg to call your attention to three dila- pidated cottages, adjoining the Museum premises-all three being unlit for human habitation—without drain- age or convenience of any kind, and having one open hole at the back, which is made a repository for all the filth from the three houses and a pig-stye. Being within a few yards from a window in the Museum, and creating an intolerable and offensive stench; they en- danger the health of ourselves, neighbours, and strangers who visit the premises. There is also a bakehouse, the eliimnev of which emits a thick smoke every day-Sun. day included-autl is a perpetual nuuaucs, such as ought not to be so near valuable property, and tho dwel- lings of a dense population, the whole of which feel equally annoyed and believe the awes call for your earliest consideration, and for abatement, lest summer heat produces infectious diseases. Yours very respectfully, "J. JONES. « P S There is also another nuisance contiguous to the Museum, viz a pig stye, belonging to J. Jones, car- ter, pobty.

UPPER BANGOR NEW CHURCH. LAYING THE FOUNDATION STONE. In accordance with the notice given, the ceremony of hyi,, the lirat stone of this Church was performed on the 29th ult., by Mrs. Price, of Brynytnor, and notwith- standing the unfavourable state of the weather, the pro- moters of this go' ,d work, and their friends, were enabled to citfet their object without much inconvenience from the rain. From the many unavoidable difficulties and delays which had occurred the elnnmittee were naturally anxious to make the first step in advance, at the earliest possible period, after obtaining possession of the site. The persons who had consented. to take part in the procession to the ground having met at Brynymor, the residence of Mrs. Price, took the repective places assign- ed to them, and started punctually at 12 15 p.m., headed hy the royal Penrhvn biass band, and led by the Senior Vicar, and the Very Rev. the Dean of Bangor. We noticed among the Clergy present the following members of the Cathedral »taffThe Venerable the Archdeacon of Bangor, one of the Canons in residence the Rev. James Purvis, Senior Minor Canon the Rev. Charles Jones, Junior Nliiior Canon; tho Kev. D. Evans, Senior Vicar and the Rev. J. Price, Jktiiior Vicar. The Rev. W. Morgan, Llandegai; the Rev. J. Williams, Drelin- eourt; the Rev. L. Lewis, Rector of Denbigh; the Rev. Henry H. Price, the Incumbent ot ABIJ. Mrs. Price, having one of the architects on one Bide, and the contractor on the other, was followed by the ladies and laity, whose names, as f,tr as we were able to remark, we give;—Mrs. Vincent; Mrs. Wynne Jones; Mrs. Slater; Mrs. Greenall Mrs. Williams and Miss Williams [Tyddyn]; Mrs. Vanghan Jones; MrB. Purvis; Miss Babington; Mrs. Barber; Mrs. Magnus; Mrs. Charles Jones- Miss Keane; Miss Staines Mrs. Parker Miss Huberts; Miss Reade; Mrs. H. H. Price; and Mrs. Kvaos. Elward Greenall,'Esq J. V. H. Williams, Esq.; J. W. Hughes, Jo:"l-; Hr. H. R. Hughes; and H. Kennedy, Esq. The school children, with flags, on which were inscribed the following words, "Let thy priest* be clothed with righteousness, and let thy saints shout for ioy. Psalm 132, v. 9. June 29, .D., 1864," lead by Mrs. H. H. Price and Mrs. Evans, closed the procession. On arriving at the eastern entrance to the ground, the band filed off right and left, up Belmont Lane and the Holyhead Road, when the clergy, and the lady who was to carry out the principal object of the day proceeded to the trench and platform, where the stone was suspended preparatory to being lowered to its place in the foundation. The children, and Welsh and English choirs, took up their stand at the west of the site, and song two hymns in a very pleasin" manner, iu the interval between which the Rev. the Senior Vicar offered up an appropriate prayer. After the second hymn the Rev. D. EVANS then addressed the persons as- sembled in the following terms My Dear Friends W e are met .together to-day to do a good work—a work of the greatest iiiipoi-tancti, We are assembled to h" v the first, stone of the House of God, to build a house tothat great Being who dwelleth not in temples made with hands, but as the Prophet aid, Whose throne is hoaven, and whose footstool is the earth." But though it is true that God is every where, and that we cannot go anywhere where he is not; yet it is true that there are times and places when and where God vouchsafes Ilis esoecial presence to all those who faithfully and hnmbly seek Him. In the Old Testament we read of places being especially appointed for the worship of God. Thus we read, But unto the place where the Lord your God shall choose out of all your tribes to place his name there even unto his habitation shftll ye seek, and thi- ther shall ye come." Speaking of the tabernacle which was to be set apart for his worship, God says, There will I meet with the children of Israel, and the taberna- I cle shall be sanctified by my glory;" and accordingly, we I find it written, that When the tabernacle was set up, the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle." Respect- ing the temple that Solomon built, God was graciously I pleased to say, I have heard thy prayer and thy sup- I plication that thou bast mad e before me; I have hal- lowed this house which thou h«(t ^aiM) to put my tI r there for ever and mine eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually." So, too, of the second temple, which' WM built after the return from the captivity in Babylon, God declared, In this place will I give peace." Now, since it cannot he that God will be less gracious to his people under the new and better dispensation which Christ introduced than he was under the Old Testament dispensation, so we may safely conclude that his pre- sence and blessing which were vouchsafed to the devout Israelites when waiting upon him according to his appointment, shall be also granted to the devout believers in Christ, when humbly waiting upon God in the place which is set apart for his service. We should, therefore, consider it one of our greatest privileges to be instrumental in building a house to the Lord our God. It is unnecessary for me to take up your time in endea- vouring to show that z% Church was needed in this part of Bangor, as I feel sure that all who are acquainted with the neighbourhood, and have the Church's cause at heart, will readily admit it. Our late worthy Dean laboured hard for many years for the purpose of supplying this deficiency, and spared no personal efforts towards the accomplishment of his praiseworthy object; but so many obstacles rose up one after another, both during his life- time and after his death, that the good work has been necessarily delayed until now. Thongh the Dean was not permitted to see the Church begun, yet we may be sure that his zeal and pious labours have not been un- rewarded. As it was the wish of many, some time back, who had had oppoitunities of witnessing the great amount of good the Dean had been instrumental in effecting, as well as his unwearied exertions in the cause of education, church-building, and every other good work,that a fitting memorial should be raised up to him; it has been thought that under the circumstances there could not be a more appropriate one than the sa- cred edifice whose foundation stone is to be laid to-day. and therefore it was agreed that it should be built as a Memorial Church to the late Dean Cotton. Perhaps it would not be irrelevant on the present occasion to state tlmt we should not have been able to commence this I good work to day, had it not been for the large subscrip- tions promised by several individuals in Bangor and it, neighbourhood, as well as by a few at a distance two in particularuiay bcmHtttjoned, Co). theHon. E. G. D. Pen- nant. who, with his characteristic liberality has given JE300 towards purchasing the site, besides a handsome I subscription. The site would have been gladly given by the intended donors had they been able to do so but as the law now stands that, unfortunately, was out of their power. Another very large contributor both to- wards the endowment and also the building, as most of you are aware, is the lady who is about to lay the foun- dation stone. I am sorry to say that another lady in this neighbourhood, who is a large subscriber, [Miss Ro- berts, George Hotel], has been prevented from atteuding on the present occasion. We shall now proceed to lay the foundation stone, which Mrs. Price haa kindly un- dertaken to do; and may it be our prayer, that in this Church, when built and dedicated to His service, God's presence and blessing may ever abide; that here many may be made the spiritual temples of the Lord the ha. bitation of God through the Spirit. Mrs. Price, [whom Wty were glad to see in such good health as to be enabled to go through the part of the in- teresting proceedings she had undertaken to perform] in a very workmanlike manner spread the mortar with the elegant trowel, and used the mallet and ma. hogany level provided for the occasion, and handed to her by the architect and builder, as if well accustomed to such operations. On striking the stone with the mallet Mrs. Price made use of the following words:—" In the taith of Jesus Christ we place the foundation stone of this Church, to be consecrated for ever to the service of Almighty God, in the Name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. Amen." The following were enclosed in a bottle, which was afterwards hermetically • sealed,—a sovereign, half sovereign, half-a-crown, a florin, a shilling, a sixpence, fourpenny piece, a penny, a half-penny, and a farthing, all of the present year's coinage, a copy of the NOHTH W AUB CilitOlICI.P and Carnarvon Herald of the Zith nJt., a card of the order of procession, and the following list of the committee and principsfl subscribers to the church, the Right Hev. the Lord Bishop of Ban- gor; the Canon in Residence, the Rev. Daniel Evans, Senior Vicar of Bangor the Rev. William Williams, Llanddyfnan, Anglesey; the Rev. Leonard Slater, Bel- mont Col. the I loii. E. G. D. Pennant, M.P.; Edward Greenall, Esq., Gorphwysfa; John William Hughes, Esq., BrynMenai; R. M. Griffith, Esq., National and Pro- vincial Bank of England Captain jonu, Museum, Ban- gor; Mr. George Simpson, Bangor; Inr. James Pring, Bangor; Mr. Fricker, Trosycanol; Mr. H. Kennedy, Bangor. Architects—Messrs. Kennedy and Rogers, Bangor, and Albion Chambers, 11, Adam Street, Adelphi, London. Builder—Mr. W. T. Rogers, Pen-y- Parc, Beauu-aris. The first stone was laid by Mrs. Price, Brynymor, June 20th, A.D., 1864. Another hymn was then sung, and the procession re- turned to Brynymor in the same order as it went to the ground. After reaching the Brynymor grounds the children were ranged along the part of the drive in front of the lionse, and were presented, by Mrs. Price, with buns, oranges, and a new penny. The children evinced their satisfaction at the receipt of these gifts by giving several hearty cheers for N, rm. Price. The, persons present then partook of a superb luncheon, prepared by their kind hostess, and left, after tea, much pleased with the day's proceedings. The edifice, which is designed in the second pointed style, and the first stone of which was laid, is only part of the plan contemplated by the promoters, as the building is eo planned and placed on the site, that a north aisle and south transept may be hereafter added, should the neigh- bourhood so increase as to justify the committee in col- lecting funds. Further funds are also required for the completion of the tower and spire. I A DINNER I Was provided, at the Belle Vue Motel [assufficient room could not be provided at Brynymor], to which about forty gentlemen wtre invited by Mrs. Price. The table was served up in a liberal style, and the catering of Miss J "lJe, appeared to give entire satisfaction. The chair was occupied by Mr. Evan Evans, senior churchwarden, and the vice-chair by Mr. T. T. Parry, the other churchwarden. The loyal toasts having been disposed of, The VICE-CHAIUMAK proposed the "Army, navy, and volunteers," and took occasion to, observe that it seemed to him very strange that no public institution in Ban- gor permanently flourished. The utmost time which any society or institution was destined to last in the city was never more than a twelvemonth. It was difficult to account for such a state of things, but such was the fact. [Hear, hear.) The volunteer corps had almost met with a similar fate; but he was happy to say it was likely to resucitate, under the able command of Mr. Pritchard, of Tan y coed. (Cheers.) With this toast he had great pleasure in coupling the names of two very attentive and efficient members of the corps-Mr. W. Roberts and Mr. Samuel Hughes. Mr. W. ROBERTS, in reply, believed that there were among the members of the Bangor company many true and loyal hearts, that would never shirk from the per- formance of their duty whenever their services might be required. As had been intimated, under tue manage- ment of Mr. Pritchard, he had no doubt the corps would prosper, and become as efficient as any other com- pany in the county. [Applause.] Th« VICE-CHAIRMAN again rose, and proposed the "Bishop and clergy of the diocese." Their esteemed diocesan always evinced a sincere desire to do every- thing that had a tendency to extend the usefulness of the church, and to spread the Redeemer's kingdom throughout the world. (Applause.) Mr. ROGKHS gave the health of the "Lord Lieutenant, Sir R. Bulkeley," of whoseiberality and kindness, as a landlord, he was everywhere well spoken of. He felt great desire, though he was aware of its irreguliarity, to propose Sir Richard's and Lady Bulkeley's names toge- ther) because there never was a more amiable, aud a more charitable lady than her. In dispensing her chari- ties she never asks whether the recipient is a Church- man, a Roman Catholic, or a Dissenter, but seeks for fit objects of charity. [Cheers.] The VICE-CHAIRMAN next gave the "Members for the county and boroughs." Respecting Colonel Pennant, it was needless, in a company composed of the citizens of Bangor, to dilate upon his good qualities. He main- tained that he had done more good for Wales than hardly any man living, in proof of which he pointed them to the schools he had erected—to the churches he reared and endowed—and to the liberal contributions he always gave towards every good object. (Cheers.) As to the member for the boroughs, he had not the pleasure of his acquaintance. propo,e d t'no The VICE-CHAIRMAN again rose, and proposed tne health of the lady who had that day laid the foundation stone of the new Upper Bangor Church—Mrs. Price. (Cheers.) She was a lady greatly respected; and for what she had done in connection with that church es- pecially, she was entitled to their best regard. [Hear, hear.] He wished her health, long life, and happiness. He wished them also to understand that she not only laid the foundation stone, but contributed oi)e thousand pounds towards the endowment, and a hundred pounds towards the building. [Cheers.] When a person come. forward in this liberal manner and contributes largely of her substance towards God's sanctuary, she must bo sincerely attached to the cause,—it is no outward, emp- ty show, but a reality. He had, therefore, much pleasure in proposing the "health of Mrs. Price." (Ali- plause.' j JJr. FOULKES proposed the Chairman's health, a I gentleman whom be had known for many years, and who was universally well spoken of-he meant ilr. Churchwarden Evans. (Applause.) Mr. EVANS returned thanks. The VICE-CHAIRMAN proposed the health of 31 r. Rogers, the contractor of the new church. [App.ause.J Mr. BoGttJByS said that he had built altogether from twenty to thirty churches; and never had ho any dis- pute with either the committee or the clergy about his contract. (Cheers.) He bad not finiihcd the Lower Bangor church yet; but he hoped to be spared to Bee the cotuj lition of the Upper Bangor church as well, and the time, when it might be said that many a sinner hll-" turned from the evil of bin waya within those sacred edifices. Before sitting down he begged to be allowed to propose a toast which -should have preceded his, viz., the .1 health of the architect, Mr. Kennedy." He was a man of ta- lent, a man of sterling integrity, and a man whose straightforward conduct earned him the good opinion of all around him. Whatever they might think of him, those who could appreciate his talents thought and spoke of him very highly. [Applause.] The VJCK-CHAIKMAN oroposed the health of Miss Roberts, George Hotel" —a lady whose charities were -%?erything tiii t she unbounded, and who contributed to everything th; t she considered conducive to the people's welfare. (Ap plause. i Mr. ROBERTS proposed the "Vice-Chairman's health," which that gentleman acknowledged in a brief but a neat speech. Mr. ROGERS begged to propose the health of a gen- tleman who had for years faithfully represented the Carnarvonshire Boroughs in Parliament, and who still served his country in many public capacities. He sup- ported all meetings and public institutions, with all his might; and, moreover, he was a man that could be ap- proached upon all occasions. At the Board of Guardians and petty sessions he was always to be found—making himself useful everywhere. (Hear, hear.) Never was there a member sent to Parliament more anxious to serve his constituents than he, and who exerted hiiiiself more on behalf of poor Welsh lads in London. He, therefore, proposed the "health of Mr. Bulkeley Hughes." (Applause.) Then followed the "Press," the health of Miss Jones, the hostess, &e. Mr. ROGEIlS proposed the "town and trade of nan gor," which had wonderfully improved in size and im- portance during the last few years. When he was a lad there were only thi-ec shops in the place (which he named), and what an immense trade there is now here ? He hoped they would goon increasing, and secure to themselves the Bangor and Llanberis Railway," which would do a deal of good to them without injuring Car- narvon in the least. (Hear, hear.) And let them also secure the country business by a pier at Garth. Mr. PARItY returned thanks, and fully coincided with Mr. Rogers as to the good a railway would do from Bangor to Llanberis, by which they would secure to themselves "a circular sailing," having also a branch from Llanberis to Carnarvon, without injuring the latter place. (Hear, hear.) The company then separated. In the eve ting a supper was given to the choristers by the Rev. D. Evans and Mrs. Evans, at the Prince of Wales Restaurant, Pendre, The churchwardens pre- sided, the senior, Mr. E Evans, occupying the chair; the vice-chair was filled by Mr. T. T. Parry, who, after the removal of the cloth, gave the following toasts- The Queen," "The Prince and Princess of Wales," when the National Anthem and u God bless the Prince of Wales," were Hung Mr. Williams, of St. Aidan's College, Birkenhead, in a fluent Welsh speech, r>ro|>osed the health of the Bishop and Clergy, which elicited repeated bursts of applause. Mr. Green, National Schoolmaster, proposed the health of the Rev. D. aud Mrs. Kvans; thanking them for their kindness in providing so bountiful a repast, and enabling them to spend a pleasant evening. Mr. Rogers, Penyparc, the Contractor for the erection of the new church, dilated upon the great progress made in Bangor by the National and British School systems, and pointed out the great advantages derived from them.

CARNARVON. WOMBWELL'S MENAOERIE.—This exhibition was in this town on Friday and Saturday, 23rd and 24th ult., and gave great delight to all those who visited it. Ex- hibition of this kiud cannot be too much encouraged, as few things are more instructive than natural history. We understand it will pass through here again on Satur- day, on its way to Bangor and Anglesey. MowIrm MACHINE.-We have much pleasure in being able to state that a fair trial has been made with this valuable adjunct to easy farmers, on Thursday last, in a field opposite the railway station, belonging to Mr. Humphreys, of the Royal Hotel. Mr. Windsor (the agent) in the early part of the day took the management of it, afterwards Mr. Humphreys, awl latterly one of his servants took charge of it. The very superior man- ner it did its work was so apparent, tfiat there cannot be a doubt of its being generally adopted in this part of the country. It is right to observe that it can be re- gulated to cut as olose to the ground as possible, and with such regularity over that in the field cut by the scythe, was so apparent, that a large increase of hay is not only saved, but the work can be done at least at half the cost of manual labour. One man or a boy, who can drive, can cut down 15 acres per day with two horses. PETTY SESSIONS, JUliE 25.-Before W. B. Hughes, Esq., in the chair; Rev. Canon Williams, C. J. Samp- son, Esq., Dr. Millar, and John Millington, jun., Esq. Drunkenness.—William Owen and Ellis Robert Jones were charged with this offence.

About three o'clock in the after- noon she discovered that the shirt had been taken away. The shirt now produced was the one she lost. It was worth from 2s. to 2s. 6d. It had been worn since she lost it. P.C. Ed. Jones, Carnarvon, produced a shirt, aud de- posed that he found it upon the person of prisoner. Prisoner, who was described by Superintendent Davies as a regular prowling thief, was then charged with steal- ing a pair of trowsers and a Guernsay frock, the property of Thomas Williams, Port Dinorwic. Ellin Williams, mother of prosecutor, deposed that she put the trowsers and frock out to dry on the previous day, and between six and seven in the evening she found they were gone. The trowsers were worth 2s. fid. or 3s., and the frock from 8s. to 9s. Thomas Williams, father of prosecutor, said that when on the road to Carnarvon, on the day in question, he met prisoner. He was then dressed similar to what he was now. On returning from the town he again met prisoner, who then had on a pair of clean fustian trow- sers, something like those produced by the officer. P.C. Edward Jones deposed that he took prisoner into custody that (Saturday) morning, and charged him with stealing these things. He found the trowsers upon him. I 'risoner said he had bought them at Liverpool a fort- ni.;ht before, William Hamer, pawnbroker, Carnarvon, deposed that prisoner had pledged the Guernsey frock to him for 3s.

DENBIGH. DREADFUL FIGHTING.—About midnight, on Saturday last, a terrible row broke out in the neighbourhood of Middle Lane, amongst a number of men who were in- furiated by the effects of intoxicating liquors. They kicked and attacked each other in a most brutal man- ner. One man named Edward Jones, stonemason, was very seriously injured, and he was considered to be in a critical state on the following d?y. On Monday thre? of the men, viz., Thomas Jones, stone cutter, Edward Lewis, ph-terer, and Hugh Lewis, shoemaker,^ were taken into custody, charged with maliciously injuring Edward Jones. They were brought before the Mayor and Dr. Pierce, and were remanded till Monday next. Hail was accepted. OBSTRUCTION AT BEACON'S HILL. -Compltint.4 have lately been made of a large heap of stones being left on Beacon's Hill to the interruption of persons travelling, thereon; but we are glad to find that our active In-, spector of Nuisances, Sergeant Davies, has taken the matter in hand, and summoned the guilty party, Mr^ Foulkes, of Graig, for an offence against the Highway; Act. Mr. Foulkes subsequently complied with the, strict latter of the law, and the summons was conse- I quently withdrawn. It is, unfortunately, a common; practice in Denbigh to obstruct the public thorough- fares, and we commend the conduct of Sergeant Davies: for performing his duties so independently. j,

(Signed) JOHY DENMAK. SUHVEYOLLS REPOHT. Bache Mills Bridge.—I regret to inform you that the severe rain storms which visited certain portions of the County on the 19th of May, took the form of a water spout in the little mountain valley above this Bridge, sweeping large pieces of the bank away, and completely undermining and working round the foundations of it and carrying the whole of one side away. To prevent the possibility of the bridge being again washed away, I beg to suggest that the following pre- cautions be taken 1. That the foundations be taken down to the depth of 12 or It feet below the original bed. 2. That the invert from pier to pier be of the heaviest stone procurable, and that an apron be continued up the stream for a distance of '2o feet, and that it, covered down in such a manner, as to prevent the stream forcing itself under. 3. That a discharging wall for the stream extending along the north bank to some distance round the curve, in order to turn the waters and ease them through the brjdge. The designs will shew these and all other requisites Pack Saddle Bridge. — I have to report that the para- 'pet of this bridge has been partly destroyed on one .ide, having been thrown down on the night of the 12th or the morning of the 13th. I took the responsibility of offering a reward of £2 for the apprehension of the guilty party. I calculate the damage done will amount to £15 or i 16. To pre- vent a recurrence of this, I propose inserting a rod through the length of the parapet. The Contractor for Bedwell and Pickhill bridges, hav- ing neglected tf) repair the road, according to his con tract, I stopped the orders, whereupon he issued a County Court summons against me. which I was obliged to defend—and succeeded in getting a verdict. It cost me many journeys and much time. I have let the roads to another contractor at the same price. [The course taken by the Surveyor in this matter, was approved of by the Court].

Archdeacon Jones, of Bryneisteddfod, who also approved it. Tenders were given iu by several builders, the lowest of which being £ 200. The work now awaits your determination in regard to the rent, as the Arehdeacou expects to receive 5 per cjnt oil the outlay. The order of the Court upon the occasion re- ferred to, was for £8 or Z9. Order of the Court.—The order to stand as before. Pant Otan Tan(it.riia Justices in Petty Sessons ac- cepted Mr. John Williams's tender of £ 40, for repairing and making good this llridge, as ordered at the last Quarter Sessions. The work is now being proceeded with. Pack Siddle Bridge. -Since I wrote my former state- ment in regard to this Bridge, further depredations have been committed, and with the concurrence of the ma- gistrate?, I had some more bills printed, offering X20 re- ward for the apprehension and conviction of the perpe- trators of so wantJIl au [I ct. Llamirmou Bridge.—The parapet will on one side of this bridge is very much out of repair, and I expect it daily to fall. It should be at once repaired. [ The Court ordered the work to be executed]. Llau, .t Lock-up.—I have been ordered by the Jus- tices of the district, to report to this Court, the incon- venience they are subjected to by having no retiring room. The Court being small there is some difficulty in clearing it when the Justices require to consult to- A brief discussion arose on tins subject. The CHAIRMAN appeared averse to any expense being incurred in erecting a retiring room for the magistrates. If such work was allowed to be done at Llanrwst, he felt sure that applications from other places would be nude to the Court to grant similar conveniences. lie referred to the Llangollen Lock-up and Court room, and said it was only a matter of taste to call for new arran.-a- ments t,) be made in connection with them. Magistrates were becoming more refined these days. Mr. SANDBACH—They ought to be more refined n.v, thau formerly. The CilAlKBAN y,); they are at liberty to have as much refinement as they pleMe in their own houses; but we are here met to lay, out the money of the rate- payers, and we should be as Saving as possible. Mr. JAS. MAUHtcE made an observation to the effect that the Llangollen lock-up was in a wretched state. Notice was eventually given, in compliance with the requirements of the law, that at the next Quarter Ses- sion a motion will be made to have a retiring-room at the Magistrates Court, Llaurwst, at the expense of the County. AOvwllHODAXIOK FOR LLANRWST VOLUNTEERS. Mr. SANDBACH desired to be mtormea it me kourv, would grant an order to erect a building attached to the Llanrwst Lock-up for the accommodation of the Vo- lunteers viz., ;t house for the Drill Instructor, contain- ing a room to keep the arms, and a cell to keep the ammunition, The CHAIRMAN said th, e Court had no authority to make such au order. Mr SANDBACH then asked it he might be allowed to make the buildiug at his own expense He had no ob- jection to the buildiug being considered County pro- perty. All he required was suitable accommodation for the Volunteers. g After a short conversation, it wu rewlyed- That ft Mr Sandbach be permitted to build such resident* arii eel on the north-east comer of the garden attaehoi lis the lock-up at Llanrwst, subject to the approval qi dm Couuty Surveyor, such intended building to lie ditaeWi from the pi-iiioiien' yard under a rate of In. per Mi- lium—tor the use of the Volunteer force of the Lloo- rwst neighbourhood during such time as such V Viim teer force be enrolled."

FLINTSHIRE QUARTER SESSIOllS- These Sessions were opened on Wednesday lad, at the County Hall, in Mold, before J. Scott B.,tiike- SAII. (chairman), and a numerous assemblage of couatzy mAk- gistrates. The whole of that day was occupied in the of the civil business of the county, including the teram- ing relating to THE FLINT COUNTY GAOL. The Chairman stated that owing to c()n)[ilitints of jSc. Haverfield, the new gaoler, of an alleged nuisaiK«*tlihP gaol, arising from the Works of Messrs. Mu^pratt a" Huntlev, the matter had been referred t-j the (kdl t5m- mittee, who had visited the Works on Monday W.

All they had to do with was tie enquire whether the alleged nuisance was such as to In prejudicial to the health of the prisoners at the XmL Mr. Haukes went on to read the opinion of Dr. Rw4gpm the gaol surgeon, who, in stating the fact of an smell arising from tbi.s time, but only for a short, taw. when the wind blew in the direction from the worut.2IIe gaol, but that it was not deleterious to health, an4 LW it was so transitory that lie had not been able to AtteA anything but passing effects on the human constit-etw*. The Chairman left the matter in the hands qf go Court. Mr. Vaughan Williams, County Court JtjdM 8IIiíI that he had stopped at Flint on his way morning, aul from enquiries of \II'.

Mu*- pratfc and Huntley that time should be givell AM to carry out their iutention with respect to the new 4uh- binkment. The Journal of the present gaoler was read, wht., in complaining of the alleged nuisance, also slated tiMi-xtt health of the prisoners waa good, which produced w applause. Captain Thomas having referred to the health 0f.4he town of Flint, observed that if this question a philanthropic one, then the sympathy ought rather Go 4p shewn to the town of Flint which did not coutp&iiflC the nuisance, rather than to prisoners, and who cmuIS not imagine that it was so bad, or the iuhabitants complain. Mr. Philips said that Messrs. Mn-pratt & Huntky ia* been great benefactors to that town, so that the htbr would put up with the smell. Captain Thomas said prisoners always grumble aboa something. Mr. Wynne Eyton-But we must not send the. to be smothered. (Laughter.) Mr. Vaughan Williams-This is only a tem.ru. matter, and will blow over.
