This is a small collection of lyrici,-aeveral of which have been set to music; and they display, generally, more poetical talents than fall to the lot of many song- writers. The author is vell-ktiovii in the musical pro- fession, having for many years, till within the last five or sis, managed the country business of the London firms of Addison and Co., Cramer and Co., and J ullien as he now does that of Messrs. Collard; and he is not more widaly known than he is respected. As he is, at present, we are sorry to say, seriously indisposed from the effects of aa accident, and other maladies, it is not likely that he will take many journeys more, if any and we have no doubt that those who knew him, will eagerly possess themselves of this collection of pleasant verses," to remind them of "pleasant hours," spent with the writer. We quote one of these short poems: TO ELIZA ON EBB BIRTII-DIY. When Winter, startled from his bed, Put on his robe of snow and Had, And genial Spring's returning reign Bade field and forest smile again, Then first, in infant's beauty bright, Eliza charm'd th' enraptured sight. While in her tiny cradle laid, Fair Venus view'd the slumb'ring maid; And in her golden chariot borne, In splendour brighter than the morn, With lib'ral hand the goddess shed Ambrosial blessings on her head. Be thine,' she said, 'each varied grace That decks the form, or tints the face; 'And each returning season view On thy young cheek a rosier hue; And still above them all desury The first of charms—Simplicity. Ambition ne'er shall tempt thy youth To leave the sacred path of truth; Nor gaudy fops, in idle state, Upon thy steps of beauty wait; No cold neglect, nor falsehood's dart, Shall pierce thy unsuspecting heart. "'For thee one soul that warmth shall feel AVhich Truth ne'er blushes to reveal, sacred to thy love alone, Its power unceasingly shall own.' The Goddess spoke, then swift on high Her chariot mounted to the sky." DEBRETT'S ILLUSTRATED PEERAGE of the United King- dom of Great Britain and Ireland. 1865. London Bosworth, Regent-street. WHO'S WHO, in 1865. Edited by Wm. John Lawson, London. A. N. Baily & Co. The first of these volumes is devoted to the Peerage. It gives an Alphabetical list of all the Peers of the United Kingdom, thetit'es they bear, the offices they hold; the names of their wives and children; with their heraldic bearings (shewn in wood-cuts, as well as described in the letter-press ), and their residences. It is a very useful guide but as it does not contain any of those biogra- phical notices which we find in Dod's Peerage, Baron- etage, and Knightage," and Forster's Pocket Peerage," we should prefer to have either of those two works at our elbow. An elaborate Essay on Titles, Orders, and Degrees of Precedence of Dignity," and The Marriages and Issue of the Sovereigns of England from the Con- quest," precede the list of Peers. Who's Who," is merely a list of peers, baronets, knights, privy councillors, members of the House of Commons, Generals in the Army, Admirals in the Navy, Judges and other public men; with, in most cases, their age and, in the lists of the members of the two houses, their political principles No doubt the public find it a useful work, as it has now been published annually for 15 years. POEMS, by the Right Hon. Edward Bulwer Lytton, Bart., M.P. London: Murray. Sir E. B. Lytton is more popularly known as a drama- tist, a novelist, and a politician, than as a poet,—though this volume establishes his claim to the title. The pro- digality of the author's genius is, indeed, remarkable; and in a review of the literature of the present age, no name will be more highly honoured by the critic, who mav live to write it in the future. This distinguished author, politician, and statesman, was the third son of the late General Wm. Earle Bul- wer, of VVoodalling, and Heydon Hall, Norfolk. His mother was the only daughter and heiress of Richard Warburton Lytton, Esq., of Knebworth, Herts., whose name the baronet took on succeeding to the Knebworth property, on the death of his mother, in 1844. Sir Ed- ward was born in 1805. He was educated at Trinity- hall, Cambridge; and immediately after he left the Uni- versity, in 18215, he commenced his literary career by the publication of a volume entitled Weeds and Wild Flowers." This was a collection of fugitive poems printed only for private circulation amongst his personal friends. Then, in 1827, came his first novel, now never heard of, "O'Neil.the rebel; this was followed by "Falk- land," published anonymously. Pelham appeared in 1823; that work at on cot gave its author celebrity, and determined him to pursue the path of fiction, at least for a time. The Disowned," "Devereux," "Paul Clifford," and Eugene Aram successively appeared; and then we find Bulwer editing the New Monthly Magazine," to which he contributed The Conversations of an Am- bitious Student; papers tliat evinced alike the exten- sive information, and vivid imagination of the writer. Most of them were republished, in a volume, called "The Student." In 1833, his England and the En- glish" appeared; a work that excited a great deal of criticism, and the preponderance of the balance inclined to hostility. His Pilgrims of the Rhine redeemed his character in the opinion of the critics; and then came The Last. Days of Pompeii," written after he had -visited the buried city of Italy; and" Rienzi," which is a noble effort of genius. He wrote several other no- vels, before those admirable works of genius, The Caxtons," Nly Novel," and What wiil he do with it," —appeared in the pages of "Blackwood." Theyaie his best works of fiction; and will, we have no doubt, be uioit valued by posterity, as they are most highly prized by his admirers of the present day.—Sir Edward, —(he received his baronetcy during the early days of the Melbourne administration, in 1835)-hii also writ- ten the dramas of The Duchess de La Vallere," the Lady of L3-otis," Richelieu," "Money," and Not so bad as we seem."—(written to promote the interests of the now defunct "Guild of Literature and Art,"— and the poems of the New Timon," and King Ar- thur." Many of the poems in the present volume were fugi- tive waifs and strays admired at the time; but they had passed away from memory, till they were collected by the writer. We have now a new and revised edition; and we have no doubt it will realize his wish, that what he has written in verse will, one day, become bet- ter known to his countrymen. The leading poem in the volume is Milton the design of which, says Sir Ed- ward, is that of a picture. It is intended to portray the. great patriot poet in the three cardinal divisions of ilife—youths manhood, and age, The first part is founded upon the well-known, though ill-authenticated tradition oi the Italian lady or ladies seeing Milton asleep under a tree in the garden of his College, and leaving some tributary verses beside the sleeper. Taking full advantage of of this legend, and presuming to infer from Milton's Italian verses (as his biographers have done before me) that in his tour through Italy he did not escape the influence of the master-passion, I have ventured to connect, by a single thread of romantic fic- tion, the segments of a poem, in which narrative, aftt-r all, is subservient to description. This idea belongs to the temerity of youth, but I trust it has been subjected to restrictions more reverent than those ordinarily im- posed on poetic license." One passage will shew how charmingly the author has treated this subject. Milton is sleeping; the fair straugter from the southern skies," approached; and over the Dreamer dwelt the Beautiful." Felt he the touch of herdark locks descending, Or, with his breath her breathing fused and blend- ing, That like a bird scared from the tremulous spray, Pass'd the light Sleep with sudden wings away? Sighing he woke; and waking he beheld; The sigh was silenced, as the look was spell d; Look charming loos, the love that ever lies In human hearts like lightning in the air, Flash'd in a moment from those meeting eyes, And opened all \he Heaven "0 Youth beware! For either light should but forewarn the gaze Woe follows love, as darkness does the blaze If Sir Edward had never written any other poem than this of "Milton," he would have shewn that he possessed the gift of poesy. It is the best long poem in the vo- lume but several of tbe minor ones have great merit,- especially the Boatman," The Pilgrims of the De- sert," and The True Joy-giver." Genuine poetry sparkles in every line of the following versee. from the latter:— Dullard, never on Falerrium The true Care-cfispcller trod; There the vine leaves wreathe no thyrw^, There the fruits allure no god. Liber's wine is Nature's life-blood; Liber's vineyard M<;«m upon Moon-lit hill-tops of Parnassus, Shady slopes of Helicon. But the hill-tops of Parnassus Are still free to every age I have trod them with thw poet, I have mapp'dthem with the sage; And I'll take my young disciple To heed well, with humbled eyes, How the rosy Gladness-giver Welcomes ever-most the wfee. We must now leave Sir Edward's- Poems; and wa- do so with the conviction, that he is, — "take him for al in all," one of the most accomplishedi writers of the- day. LETTERS ON AMERICAS RAILWAYS. Londbo: 26, Throg- morton-street. We have been favoured with a small pamphlet, with the above title, written by Mr. W. Lance,. Railway Ac- tuary, in which he calls the attention of the- British pub- lic to the"Atlantic and Great Western Railway" in North America. This important line, which, independent of its branches, is 385 miles in length, forms a connecting link to other lines between New York and St. Louis, on the Mississippi, adistance of 1200 miles,. which dis- tance can now be traversed in 40 hours, without change of carriage. At present, for want of capital! to fully complete the "packing," &c., and to purchase the ne- cessary amount of rolling Stock, only local traffic can be performed; whilst if through traffic could beropened. it is calculated that the receipts, which already realize 5,783 dollars per mile at the same time it is estimated that with through traffic, it will bring in 20,000 dollars per mile. Besides the main line, there are branches which open up extensive corn-producing distrieta-in the West, the coal-fields of Ohio, and the oil rfegion of/Penn- sylvania, which constitute boundless and exhaustless sources of traffic. The Company has now issued certifi- cates of debentures to the extent of 12,000,000, at jE90 for X100, to be redeemed at par at the end of three-years with interest at 8 per cent., payable half-yearly the in- terest to be guaranteed by the Consolidated Bank;.Lon. don, and the principal secured by a deposit with the trustees of bonds and shares amounting to £ 4,23O;403. Considering the position of the Company, these terms appear to be liberal, and the operation has been received with favour in Europe, so that the company will have with f,,Lvotir in 1, the means of making any farther improvements that may be required in their line. We may add that Sir S. Morten Peto speaks in the highest terms of this line and its future prospects, and states that under the direction of the chief engineer, Mr. Mc Henry, it has been ballasted in a style fully etpial to the best of our English railways; while the extremely favourable nature of the country through which, it passes has rendered necessary so few works of art, that its maintenance need not exceed the average cost per mile of our railways at home.

THE BISHOP OF CHESTER ON RATIONALISM: AND RITUALISM. Preaching on Sunday week in Chester Cathedral to the ministers newly ordained on that day, the Bishop 8aid,- Our Church draws its doctrine out of the pure fountain: of Holy Writ It receives the Gospel in the plain sina. plicity of the Scriptural narrative. It receives what is written. Whatever there is mysterious in this great dispensation of God's mercies, our Church receives withi the submissive reverence and the steadfast reliance of faith. But, my brethren, there ever have been men,. and there are many now, who will not receive anything that reaches above and beyond the narrow limits of the- natural powers of the human mind, and the narrow com- pass of human experience and knowledge. Such meTh presumptuously seek to lower the revelation of the Dp- vine will tot tie level of their own poor understanding. They lower the doctrine of Jesus Christ to little more than a mere system of moral philosophy; they lower the. re- cord of the ministry of Christ to little more than a bio- graphical delineation of a perfect moral character. They recognise in the cross of Christ an example of heroic Buffering indeed, but they will not see in it what the eye of faith sees-a propitiatory sacrifice for the sins of the world. Now, my brethren, thus to deal with the sub- ject is to be false both to the substance of Scripture and to the doctrine of the Church; it is to evade the force and to pervert the meauiu, of the plainest language- oi Holy Writ; it is to rob the (jospel of its very es- sence, to rob it of that which makes it to be in reality what it is in name, a message of tidings of great joy, for what message of God to simple man can be tidings of joy, unless it brings with it what man most needs, par- don for sin My brethren, preach to your people that Christ came into the world to be the light of the world, to be the teacher of the world, to be the educator of the world, if anyone likes that phrase; but teach them also, preach to them also, and above all, that Christ came in- to the world to be the Saviour of the world preach to them that true saymg, worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners through faith in His Holy Name, and in the merits of His effec- tual mediation. This is the Gospel, this is the message we are sent to deliver, and woe unto us if we do not be- lieve it faithfully and truly. Then, our Church has its liturgy and its ritual fixed for it, a liturgy and ritual named in accordance with the language of Holy Scrip- ture, and after the model of primitive usage—a consis- tent and reasonable service adapted equally to direct the understanding and to impress the heart. And yet there are persons who are not content with its simplicity, but must needs go out of the way to superadd to it a variety of unwarranted forms, may I not even say, sometimes of fantastic ceremonies and theatrical pageantries, which, since the time of the Reformation have not been known in the service of our Church. My friends, it would be a sufficient condemnation of these super-additions to say that they are destitute of all authority, and that they are not suitable to the simple nature of our public wor- ship but. more than' this inasmuch as in many instan- ces they are imitations of the ceremonial of the Church of Rome, they not unnaturally create in many men's minds a painful misgiving that more is meant than meets the eye, and that there may be a secret desire and aim to depart not only from the simplicity of our ritual, but from the purity of our doctrine. In this way suspicions are engendered, men's minds are disquieted within them, the peace of the Church is broken. Can it be said that the minister who acts in this manner is doing his duty to the Church ? Even if he have no ulterior design, even if he meditate no secret treachery, forfarbeit from me to speak on this subject or on any other subject otherwise than in the spirit of Charity, that thinketh no evil-yet, even so, how can the minister justify himself for being thus the occasion of such scandal and such dis- cord in the Church for merely introducing gratuitous in- novations for his own pleasure into the services of the Church, and overlaying the simplicity of our ritual with a tissue of incongruous excrescences ? Though all things ivere lawful, yet all things would not be expedient, if they became a stumbling block to others, and cause even a weak brother to offend.

I AMERICA. I EARLY'S DEFEAT AD SHERMAN'S MOVE- MENTS. NEW YORK, March 10th.-Cuater's division attacked and defeated Early's forces near Waynesboro', capturing 84 officers, Early's staff, 1,100 men, seven cannon, 100 waggons, and also a train of artillery stores prepared for transportation. General Early escaped. The Federal loss was ten men. Custer was last reported within ten miles of Charlottesville. Kosser attacked a detachment returning from Winchester, but was repulsed. Prisoners report that a heavy Federal force was advancing from East Tennessee towards Lynchburg. Unconfirmed rumours report the capture of Lynchburg Grant is reported to be waiting fine weather for ano- ther attack on the south side railroad. Lee is strongly fortifying his line on the Roanoke River to secure the possible retreat of Johnstone to the Roanoke. The accounts from Sherman continue conflicting, deports from Charleston to the 7th announce Sher- mau's arrival at Charlottesville. Beauregard was ho- vering round his front. Rumours, through Southern sources, state that Sherman had deserted Cheraw, retiring towards Charleston. Other accounts represent the fight at Cheraw as a cavalry engagement, Hampton defeating Kilpatrtck. General Potter had advanced from Charleston to the Santee River without opposition. The fortifications of Augusta are being strength- ened. The Southern journals now express more confidence of Sherman's failure, aud say hiiw retreat would not sur- prise them. General Terry is 13 miles from Wilmington, on the north-west branch of the Cape Fear River, confronted by Hoke. Charleston is quiet, and business reviving. The arrival of detachments at Winchester with prison- ers confirm Sberidan's success. The Danville Register saya that Lee intends never to surrender Richmond until it is impossible to hold it. A meeting bæ been held at Danvilk for subscriptions to support Lee's army. The governor of North Carolina has atoongjy appealed for provisions for Lee's army. General Canby has left New Orleans for Mobile. Mr. M'Culloch\. the new Secretary of the Treasury, upon assuming office, made a speech BtaCing his chief aim was to providie an early means for discharging the claims upon the Treasury, and gradually "toring the specie basis, the departure from which was. a temporary necessity, damaging and demoralising to the- people and expensive to the Governments. The Secretary of the Interior has resigned, and has been succeeded by Senator Harton. The papers continue-to stigmatise Andrew Johnson's conduct on the day ofi hifr inauguration. Some recom- mend him to resign. President Lincoln has been officially informed of England's approval of the recent Canadian legislation regarding Southern reexgeea. Mr. Seward has rescinded the Canadian passport order. lit has also been agreed not to. increase the navaiforce on the lakes. The draft commences in' New Yoric on toe lotn March.

It is reported to be probabl^- in the north of South Caro- lina. Refugees from Newbern report that Sherman owu- pied FayetteviUe last week, and waa within 40 miles of Sleigh. Scouts have reported I that S?erman intercept- ed and crushed Cheetham's corps, which was movmg from Alabama to reinforce Hardee. Hardee was not up in time, and did not give- battle. The steamer Ruby has been-captured. The British ship Margaret Kerr has been totally wrecked at Key West. The'crew were saved. The Confederates were deserting by companies and going home. The people were not heeding the govern- or's call, and in many cases were welcoming Sherman. A panic prevailed among-the-negroes since the an- nouncement that they were-to be conscripted into the Confederate army. The Conservative slaveowners went arming their slaves. The result of the conscription was that hundreds of slaves were flocking to Sherman's army with the assist- ance of their masters, promising to return- to work for wages as-soon as safe. The Federals from Wevy-bern have arriml near Kins- ton. The Confederates are reported to have abandoned the country between Newbem and Goldsbero', ovacuat- ing Kineton on the 3rd.

The New York Times says President Li^ ncol.n d.o.es not propose at present to maka-any diplomatic- appointment to France. It is reported that the Government will immediately ship the cotton captured at Savannah to-Ehgland. NEW YORK, March 11, Evening. -Seovits amved at Wilmington announce Sherman's occupation of Cheraw. Up to that time, nothing but skirmishing has occurred. Sherman's advance into South [ I North] -Carolina was a certainty. It is rumoured at Washington that General. Schofieid has had an engagement in North Carolina: Grant is reported to have discovered, coloured troops confronting his pickets* showing that the Confederates had adopted the policy of arming the slaves. t'he Confedate Semite has passed the Negro. Enlist- ment Bill and it is supposed the houM will ratify it. NEW YORK, March. 12, One a.m.—The Federal Senate 1 has adjourned without transacting any important busi- ness. The only diplomatic appointment sent in i, s: that of Mr. John P. Hall as Minister to Spaiiii I- New York, March IO.-The. report ot ttle. (ieleat of Early by Sheridan is revived. The battle is now stated to have been fought at Fisherville, near StAAmton, Vir- ginia, but, the date is not mentioned. 1300 Confederate prisoners and eight cannon, caotured in. the battle, are asserted to have arrived at Winchester on the 8th inst. ml New Orleans ctespatches state that Gen. Cunby would leave the city on the 1st for Pensacola or Pbomgoula, to conduct the new- operations against Mobile. A naval and military expedition for the-capture of St. Mark's Florida*, left Key West osuthe 24th ult. No news of its process-has been received. Admiral Porter stated yesterdhy, before the Congres- sional committee on the contiuct of the war, that the principal object of General Banks' Red River expedition was the capture of cotton, and! attributed its failure to that fact. Senator Harlam, of Iowa, has- been appointed by the President, and confirmed by the-Senate, Secretary of the Interior, to succed Mr. Usher, who, will resign office on May 1. Mr. Seward has rescinded his Canadian passport or- der. The cotton captured at Savannah is being rapidly brought to New York. The Tribune states that Secre- tary M-Culloch has deairedi tx> immediately tranship it to England. Chief Justice Chase has decided, that the cotton cap- tured on the Red River was not a lawful prize of war, and should have been cfelivered to the Treasury D4art. mont., as abandoned personal property, snbject. to ad- indication. Rumours from Washington of a victory by Geo. Sher- man caused gold to decline to 186f it has since rallied to 189. March 11, Afternoon.- Richmond papers, to the 9th inst., report the news from Carolina highly encouraging though still suppressed. They intimate that Sherman is retreating. The Bill for arming the slaves, slightly amended, has passed the Confederate Senate, by a majority of one. Mr. Lincoln has issued a proclamation warning de- serters to return to their duties within 60 days, under pain of being deprived of their rights of citizenship. The same penalty extends to persons, who being liable to military service evade its performance. Senator Hale, of New Hampshire, has been appointed ambassador to Spain. Gold, 1911

I CLYNNOG. I PRESENTATION TO THE KEY. ROBERT wfL" LIAMS, M.A., RECTOR OF LLANVAKLOG. On Tuesday evening, the 14th instant, a very interest- ing meeting was held in the National Schoolroom of this parish for the purpose of publicly presenting to the Rev. Robert Williams, M.A., the former Vicar, and now Rec- tor of Llanvaelog, in Anglesey, a Testimonial from the parishioners and other friends, as a token of personal esteem and respect, and a mark of their high appre- ciation of his professional services during more than six- teen years' official connection with the parochial charge. On the motion of Mr. Rees, seconded by Mr. David Jones, the Rev. William Jones, Curate of Upper Clyn- nog, was voted to the chair (the newly-appointed Vicar not having come into residence), and in a forcible address he reviewed the labours and exertions of Mr. Williams in the parish. He touched very feelingly on the various branches of a minister's charge, and the important inte- rests atfected by the right performance of his functions. He adverted to the earnest and efficient manner in which the late Vicar, instant- in season and out of season, dis- charged these duties, in his public ministry, his pwtoral visits from house to house, and the friendly counsels he ever gave to all his parishioners. He dwelt on the many claims on their gratitude the reverend gentleman they had met to pay respect to undoubtedly had, and enume- rated the visible evidences of his great usefulness in the parish, in the great work of the restoration of the fine and far-famed old Church, and in the erection of the spacious Schoolroonkl-one in the lower, and the other in the upper district of the parish. These institutions, as he observed, would be standing proofs of their former Vicar's deep interest and devotedness to the welfare of his charge, and, when generations had passed away, would continue to be inetrumeuts of incalculable good, temporally and spiritually,, to the parish. He felt, un- wortby as he was, that it was a high honour to occupy the chair at the meeting, and wished these proceedings had been presided over by one of greater pretensions than himself, as he could not do justice to the occasion. It was his pleasing duty, however, to call on the Hono- rary Secretary to present the splendid articles before them, to their late respected Pastor, the Rev. Robert Williams On thisj. Mr. Rees placed hie- hands QI1 a magnificent Drawing-room Clock, and Silver Inkstand, both very beantiful specimens of artistic; workmanship, and ex- pressed thegreat satisfaction he BMtiti, presenting them on his own, behalf and that of the subscribers generally to the rev. gentleman, begging hie acceptance of the same as a memento, however inadequate,, of their warm and sincere respect and regard foe him, personally and professionally. The Rev. Rbtiert Williams then sddbessed the meet- ing at some length to the following effect-He expressed the great gratification he felt in meeting: go. many kind friends, and in, accepting at their hands so pleasing and substantial a proof of their good opinion and friendship. His feelings were-necessarily of a very mixed character, as of all topics the-least desirable and ttie least edifying must be for one to'have to speak for himself,, and any little good he may have been instrumental in effecting in the sphere he may have in God's providence occupied. Whilst thanking therm with all his heart fur: their splen- did preeent, he could- only regret that he was not more deserving of such a reuik of their nattenng; estimation. Whilst they seemed tohave written his manydaulwand shortcomings in the saud, and thrown thd- mantle of charity oier them, they had literally carved, the good they were pleased to sap he had done amongst them (he would not-say with a pew of iron in the rock);, but in rich and silvery engravings. He was, however,. too con- scious of many things he bad left undone, which, in the retrospect of the past must deeply humble biini;.ai*l if he had beeii,aii instrument, whilst with them,, of doing any real good; all the glory should be ascribed to Him who giveth the increase. Works such as he had been privileged to. be engaged in are always their o-wa rewmd, for in the ministry of the Word and pastoral visitations it had been graciously provided, that those who-watered should thereby be watered themselves, and bjr seeking to promote the happiness of' others we always best se- cure our own.. He could with truth say, tliats it had been his constant endeavour, whilst amongst them, to carry consolation, to every house of mourning, and the bed of sickness,,and many were the affecting reminis- cences which orowded on his mind in reviewing his in. tercourse withithem, both as regards domestic asprows through which) he had himselffpassed, and those- he had witnessed in many a home thrcmghout the parish. Many and sad had beemthe changes' in many a circife, and whilst thinking-of so many who- had passed away.- from their scene, it became them all to give renewed diligence to do their allotted work whilst it. was day, before the evening shadows closed around'themselves. As regards the restoration of their fine old' Church, and the commo- dious Schoolrooms now provided for them, whilst the difficulties had often pressed much upon him in connec- tion with them, he had thankfully to record his obliga- tions for much encouraging co-operation on their part, and the landowners, without whose assistance he could have done nothing effectually. One lesson he had learnt thereby was, that-no good worl-connected with Church and educational progress need ever be regarded as hope- less in this favoured country, for if set about with, any ordinary degree of energy, there-will never be wanting sufficient sympathy and support to carry it out and'oom- plete it. It was,"ource of great satisfaction to him that all that kind of work, often so great a tax on; tie time and energies of a clergyman, and hampering him much in more spiritual duties, was completed in this parish, and that his worthy successor in the charge would be at liberty to devote his earnestness and aseal to what was more-especially the work of the ministry. He earnestly entreated their co-operation and prayers o» his behalf, that the-ands of providing. these buildings might be fully answered amongst them .by raising and polishing lively stones forthe spiritual building. In that?MuJIy accepting this handsome present, he assured thera.lie? needed no such. memorial of his old friends amengst them, whose kindnesses would never pass away from; his memory, and as they were wellaware his ties to "dear old Clynnog" were of an undying nature, when so many dear members-of his family were sleeping their laat.long sleep, and where he must, ere-long, expect to join, them. Whilst he was spared, he would prize highly their sug- gestive gifts. The Inkstand, ever reminding hiiu, that no day should pass without some written line on. life's page, and the Timepiece pointing out the inestimable value of Time, and suggestmgdessons qf deep import as regards the-past, present, and future, as well as the-great importance-of preparing for the eternity to which they were has toning. His heartfelt prayer was, that they might all be enabled so to live that they might ren- der ap their account with. joy and not with grief, and again meet, after life's conflicts were over, in, eternal happiness. The meeting was furthec-addressed, with much effect, by Mr. Hugh Davies, formerly of the Nawborough Arms Hotel, who dwelt at some length and force on the happy contrast the state of the Church, inside-and out, now exhibited, as compared with what it was. when Mr. Williams entered on the-oharge. It was to him a mar- vel how so much money could have been raised by the energy of one individual; to enrry out so much in a pa- rish where there were no. resident gentry; and though he was happy in being, privileged to be there, to join in the well-deserved tribllw, he could not but feel that it wasifar from being act. adequate return for such sue- coodulekertions. He concluded a very interesting address by, reciting some impromptu Welsh verses. On the motion of tho Rev. R. WillianM, a vote of thanks was proposed,, seconded by Mr. John Griffith, Mid carried with acclamation, to the Chnrehwardens (Mr. Richard Edwards, Xowborongh Arms Hotel, and Mr. Wm. Jones, Henbsuit Mawr) and Mr. Rees, the Hon. Sec. and Treasurer;, for their able and zealous services in carrying out the Testimonial movemect and bringing it to so successful aj- issue. This was suit-tbty acknowledged by Mr. Wm. Jones IMr. Edwards being unavoidably absent) and also by Mr. Rees, who expressed the pleasure b,¡r felt in rendering his services, which he would have been still more glad to have seen crowned with more success. He said it was only just to add, that mueii credit was also due to Mrs. Edwards for her valuable u-wistatice in the matter. A vote of thanks having been cordially carried for the Chairman* and suitably acknowledged, the interestiug meeting was brought to a eloae- by singing a hymn,, and the benediction. The Silver Inkstand was provided by inlesirs. Lpwe & Sons, Chester; and the Timepiece by Mr. Benson, Ludgate Hill, bearing the following inscription, neatly engraved on a silver plate Presented, together with a Silver Inkstand, to the Rev. Robert Williams, M.A., by some of the inhabitants, and proprietors ot the parish of Clynnog, in the county of Carnarvon, with other friends, as a token of respect and regard, and in testimony of their sense of his valuable and efficient services as Vicar of the parish for upwards of 16 years. The fine old Church was restored at an outlay of £ 2,250, and two spacious School Buildings, which cost more than £1,600, were erected during his incumbency and through his sole exertious.-Chliattu,ts, 1864. There was also exhibited on tho table a beautiful and richly-chased Silver Salver, presented by Hugh Jones, Esq., Wood-street, London, bearing the following in- scription -"Pi-esetite(I by Hugh Joues, Esq., ex-Sheriff of London and Middlesex, and a native of Clynnog, Car- narvonshire, to the Rev. Robert Williams, M.A., for 16 years Vicar of Clynnog, and now Hector of Llaubeulan, Anglesey.—Christmas, 1864. The entire cost of the articles was about ze I oo, and, as expressed by one and all, the Testimonial was but an inadequate recognition of the valuable services rendered by the rev. gentleman to the parish. It should be added that a list of the subscribers, with an address on vellum, and in a gilt frame, signed by the Churohwardens and Hon. Sac., is in course of prepara- tion, and will form a further meujeuto of the Presen- tation.

BREAKFAST BfevERAOE.—Homoeopathic- Practitioners, and the Medical Profession generally, recommend cocoa as being the most healthful of all beverages. When the doctrine of homotap*thy was first introduced into this country, there were-to be obtained no- preparations of cocoa either attractive to the taste or aoeeptable to the stomach; the nut. was either supplied in, the crudo state, or so unskilfully manufactured as to obtain little notice. .J. Epps, of London! homoeopathic chemist, was.induced in the year 1839 to turn his attention to tliissubject, and at length succeeded,, with the assistance of elaborate ma- chinery, in being the first to produce ati-articlepure in its composition, aml'so refined by the perfect tritinration it receives in the process it passes through, as to be most acceptable to the* delicate stomach. For general use, Epps's cocoa is distinguished as an invigorating, grateful breakfast beverage; with a delicious aroma. Dr. Hassall, in his work Food and its Adulterations," says Cocoa contains sogreat variety of important nutritious principles; every ingredient necessary to .the-growth and sustenance of the body." Again, As a nutritive, cocoa stands very much-, higher than either- cotfde or teq. .N F XL J „ T- „ 1- Directions Two-iaaspooiuuis tK tuts IXJWUUJ- LU it mexft.- fast cup, filled up with boiling water rrmiilk.

Dr. Granville, F.R.S., state& "Being much more palatable than the Pale- Oil, Dr. Granvilleo have themselves expressed a preference- for Dr. de Jongh's Light-Hrown Cod liver Oil." Dr. Jos.

I REVIEW OF THE BRITISH COUN~~TUAte DURING THE PAST WEEK. A continuance of rough and sapnial weather his begnn to tell seriously upon the labour necessary in the fields. The ,.„. ing of Spring com and seeds has been materially hindered, the young wheat begins to show the effect of a long state of 111. action and exposure. Complaints increase as to its general pect the alterations of temperature have raised it from its b and exposed it to the sleet and chilling atmosphere, and on th, whole, there is far less promise than.when started with at the coia- roencement of the year. The ice-bound ports of the North. are however, gradually opening and the almost failure of foreign wheat supplies may soon give place to the resumption of corn. merce, if prices hold out the slightest encouragement. But this has not happened yet, as the week s report of the English mar kets has been a dull one and it would seem that nothing bat some unmista cable disaster or a foreign war would tempt spet ulatora to meddle with the corn trade. With an advance, how: ever, of 10s per qr. they might be attracted by the low pi,, One thing, however, is certain, that if our imports continue at the present rate, we shall be left to our own resources, and ( ir. iners will then be to blame if they neglect an opportunity to paid for their anxieties and toil. In France the upward mo. ment in country maikets has acted on Paris, in spite of the heavy stocks of flour, wheai been generaUy about Is per qr. dearer from the consumptive demand, though the trade if by no means active. Belgium begins to feel the influence of her neizhbours Holland remains much the aa" as do other parts of the Continent: while tlbough prices are I. at Odessa, no margin is left for any profitable exports theneff. In South America they have had gM crops, but the continuanes of the deadly strife in the Northern Continent makes a great dearth of the neeeeasaries of life in p111 tain localities, with little prospect of the peaceful tillage of the soil in the Southern States; and New York remains too deacaj regards brewdstuffs for any important exports. &.I

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—TUESDAT. Our import fist far the past week consists of small arrivals fif wheat and flou*, and one cargo of feeding barley.

I'he shilmient, of Indian corn to Ireland is slightly on the increase The weather hes been most sevem during the last two or three days, with strongga3es from the Eastward; frost has aJ., reo turned upon us. Our market has shown an advancing tendency for both wheat and flour in the interval 3ince Frlcfty last, and Dsnubun Corn has been in request at 3d per quarter oyer the rates then cunent At Mark Lane yesteiday English wheat brought an advance of Is per quarter, and foreign full prices* We have had a full attendance of hocfbtown and oocmtiytoiy. ers at our cern exchange this morning. and a healthy consump. ttro business has beewdone in wheat aft an improvement of id per cental. on white, and Id to 2d per cental on red.
