THE GREAT AlBftSSABOl OF TO ALL MANKIND. A noon to the Sick! The want of a sterling medicinal preparation to meet the many '"ills that, flesh is hei>" to," and one entirely free from mineral and other deleterious particles was severely felt till this all pow- erful medicine was ushered into the world. Holloway's invalu- able Pills have become the Household remedy of all nations. Their attribute is to prevent- as well as to cure. They attack the root of the complaint, and thus, by removing the hidden cause of disease, re-invigorate and restore the drooping- energies of the system, assisting nature in her task of vital and functionary reformation, Bilious Complaints. Those who suffer from bile and liver complaints should try the effect of this valuable remedy, a few doses of which will mike the sufferer feel elastic and vigorous, remove all impediments, cleanse the blood from all impurities, give a healthy action to the liver, and strengthen the stomach. If bilious attacks be al- lowed to continue without using such a preventive, more serious casualties may arise and the sufferer be consigned to a bed of ¡;ickness. These Pills are an extraordinary remedy in removing acidity from the stomach and correcting indigestion. Complaints Incident to Children. In no country in the world are more children carried to an early grave than in this, Cough, measles, scarlatina, fevers, and similar diseases attack the little sufferers, and death but too often follows at a rapid pace; yet if at the first stage of the complaints parents were to have recourse to Holloway's Pills, all danger would be avoided; for the stomach and bowels being gently but effectually cleansed by this mild aperient., the depraved hu- mours corrected, and the secretions duly regulated, a perfect cure is suon effected, and the little patient is restored to sound health. Sick Heatiaciie with Xioss of Appetite. A certain cure for headaches loss of appetite and low spirits, iiiese Pills may be taken without danger from wet or cold, and require no restraint from business or pleasure. They strengthen tiie stomach, and promote a healthy action of the liver, purifv- ing the blood, cleansing the skin, bracing the nerves, and invi- gorating the system.

|BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR THE…
BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR THE PRESS. To comment on the advantages of the press in this country would now be mere idle waste of words; still more idle would it be to attempt to prove that for the press to have its due weight and power it must be free. Both posi- tioris are fully admitted, and the whole ques- tion is tersely stated by Blaekstone, the expo- sitor of English constitutional law, thus:— "The j liberty of the press is essential to the nature of a free state." The liberty of the press is, in fact, part of our nature, nationally considered- it is a constituent element in our national being. While, however, all Q,re ready to make these admissions freely, as a matter of theory, in practice there has always been an antagonism between Government on the one hand, and the press on the other. If our readers will just glance at the condition of the press on the Con- tinent now, they may form a tolerably correct idea, mutatis mutandis, of the position of the press in our own country some fifty years ago only. Newspaper proprietors were hampered by restrictions which practically kept their in subjection to the Government, while }>■_ 11» for new papers were nipped in the bud, N'ot only did Government offer the press no f.^Pitu s but every obstacle was thrown in. their way; official information was withheld, and if obtained in spite of governments, prose- t; c o eutiou for the lightest offence that followed was certain. Sovereigns as well as govern- raents looked with hatred and suspicion on the | newspaper press. Less than half a century since Leigh Hunt and his brother were sentenced to pay a fine of GOOl., and to suffer two years' imprisonment. The real prosecutor was George the Fourth; the real offence was that the brothers of the press had called the monarch "an Adonis of fifty." But Freedom's battle, once begun, Bequeathed from bleeding eire to son, t Thoug h baffled oft, is ever won." This is as true of the bloodless struggles fori political liberty as it is of the more furious on- slaught of soldiers upon an invading foe, or the uproosing of a nation against the cruel oppress- ions of a tyrant. The battle of the Press has been fought persistently from that time to the present, and it has been fougbt. successfully too. But what a long battle was that between the exclusives and the lovers of freedom before the 1 compulsory stamp was reduced! Right ulti- mately triumphed over might, however, and the Cheap Press has done its work, let Mr. Gladstone say. In his famous Budget speech he remarked "f think the Committee will "idmit that it is a most desirable and legitimate object to promote the extension of cheap lite- rature. (Hear, and cheers.) I don't speak of n. --papers alone, but of the jour. r> is of wlech, in common with all literature, we have of late so large a supply, and the eluu_<.< rof which 1 am bound to say, since the p<nuv <*t„u»p oil Newspapers was removed, has beerfhigJy ere- i ditable to the conductors of that which is called the Cheap Press. (Loud and general cheer- ]Us3-)" The cheers which followed this remark may also be regarded as the shout of joy at the falsification of the ill-natured prophecy which foretold a ribald press" as the result of the abolition of the stamp. Besides this great success, we have just ac- quired, thanks to the earnest exertions of Mr. Avrton, the repeal of another vexatious restric- tion the security system. This is a great step in advance. The security system was a Go- vernnient insult to the press, and an official insult to the nation. It was a direct and con- tinued check on the liberty of the press, and lowered newspaper proprietors to the humbling position of feeling, "Sufferance is the badge, of all our tribe." The abolition of this restriction is a. glorious success. The battle for freedom, however, is not yet wholly won. There is the registration nuisance still existing; there is "the last rag- of in toler- ance;" and sooner or later it must be removed, and leave the newspaper proprietor in this re- spect as free as any shopkeeper can be. But the great barrier to the progress of the Cheap Press is the paper duty. We need not inform our readers that this obnoxious impost will come off if Mr. Gladstone's budget pass, j He proposes to repeal entirely, from the 1st July, the Excise and Customs duties on paper, allowing a drawback on all stocks in hand on that day; to abolish the Customs duty on all foreign 1 books, not English copyright; and .to grant to all printed matter a postage at— 4 id.; 6 ozs., I £ d.; 8ozs., 2d.; 12 ozs" 3d. j and so on, adding: a penny for every four- ounces. That the paper duty is a tax on know- ledge, a barrier to social and political progress, and an evil without any counterbalancing good, there can be no doubt. Mr. Gladstone having so recently proved this in an elaborate argu- ment, it is unnecessary to establish this position by arguments of our own. The Association for the Repeal of the Taxes on Knowledge, in va- rious pamphlets, have over and over again proved the same thing, and they have embodied their arguments, so pithily in a petition that we cannot do better than append them. They say "That the excisable article called paper is undefined. That in collecting- the duty, the Board of Inland Revenue and the Treasury impose restrictions and grant exemptions, many of which are unjust and illegal. That the duty represses literature and education, interferes with foreign trade, and is a heavy burden on the capital and labour employed in manufac- tures." We therefore congratulate our readers on the prospect of the speedy abolition of such a duty. The public will be the gainers.

A bastardy case having been disposed-of, George Johnson and Benjamin Jackson were brought up in custody of P. S. Thomas, charged with having bro- ken the shop window of Mr. Richard Evans, Tailor, and stolen therefrom a waistcoat, of the value of 8s. 6d., on Friday evening, the 17th instant. Mrs. Job Jones deposed to having seen the prisoners come down street together on the evening in ques- tion and when opposite Richard Evans's shop Jackson pushed Johnson against the window, which the latter broke but she did not see anything taken a wji)r. p, S, Thomas deposed that when he took the prisoners into custody he found upon Jackson the waistcoat, then produced; and he confessed to ha- ving taken it from Evans's shop. Mr. Richard Evans having identified the waistcoat, as his pro- perfv, the prisoners were asked if they pleaded guilty or not; and they answered—Guilty. They were sentenced to six months imprisonment, with j hard labour, in Cardigan gaol, THE 11 A R n. > R; n TRUST.—A meeting of the trustees of the harbour was held on Tuesday last, at the. Town Hall, wher there were present—John Hughes, (in the chair,) i Parry, John M. Davies, Rich- ard Roberts, Griffith Thomas, Thomas Jones, John Davies, Evan It Morgan, John Jones, Richard Morris, John Jeskins, and John Watkins, Esqrs. The meeting wastcalled for tfie. purpose of appoint- ing a harbour master. There were six candidates for the situation. Capr. John Davies, however, late of the Magdni. n. v n- ejected, and was instructed to enter upon his duties nt once.—Mr. Paul sent in his report of the present, state of the harbour, in which he stated that the pier had suffered more or less along- the whoh- of its length by the violence of the htte storms; ami "he re commended that it should first of nil he reaa>honed, and advised that a lo- comotive engine sfioukl be procured for the trans- mission of stone from the quarry for that purpose, the quantities caified by the present mode beinp- bv (ar too scanty a6d he assured the trustees thafthe expense ent.ailpd thereby would soon be snved by the increased amount of work that would be done thereby. After a iong: discussion on the subject, Mr. Panl was rrquested to write to enquire what would be the expen-e of a locomotive engine, and rails adapted for it, and report at the next meeting, to be held in a fortnight. ABERYSTWITH HIPLE 'CORPS.—The corps pro- ceeds regularly in drill and exercise, and, consider- ing- the varied professional and business engage- ments of the itiemhers, there if a very punctual attendance.

There was a good mus- ter on the ground, and the first lessons in marching weie proceedwi with. The uniform and accoutre- ments are expected to arrive in a few days and it is then in contemplation to enforce the fines for nonattendance. We are requested to state that no person, unless an horiorary or effective member of the corps, can be admitted to the drill ground, un- less provided with an order from a member.

The usual monthly County Court for this district was held yesterday, at the Town Hall, before A. J. Johnes, Esq., Judge. As is invariably the case, a great number of plaints were entered, but hardly of any public interest. VESSEL RUN ASHORE.—On Monday last, a brig- of about 300 tons ran on the beach near Morfamawr. near Aberayron. She is the Planter, of White- haven, bound from Cardiff' to Dublin, with coals, j It, appears that on Sunday afternoon, when near Bardsey, she sprung a leak, and the crew were compelled to run her ashore. All hands, with some difficulty, were saved. The vessel is now high and dry, and there is not the slightest chance of getting ben off. 8 FATAL ACCIDENT — one of the crew of the schooner Aretas, of this port, (David Thomas was assisting in getting in hawser from his ship to a tug steamer, the ropp^oifortui.&teiy got entan- gled around his leg, and atVice snapped it off The poor sufferer was immedi.it,>H^;»ken to the hospital, at Greenock, wnere the ve*>>el wras lying-, but died shortly after.

: SHIPWRECKED MARINERS5 SOCIETY..
SHIPWRECKED MARINERS5 SOCIETY.. Ceatral Office; Hibernia Chambers, London Bridge, S.E.. We insert the following at the request of a gentleman in this town, who takes a lively interest in the above Society. i THIS very excellent Institution was established in the year 1839, and incorporated by Act of Parlia- ment in 1850 and it affords us pleasure to add, that the object for which the promoters designed it has been fully carried out, far beyond their most san- guine expectations. Nothing is more difficult than to found a society for the alleviation ofprcbable mis- fortunes, as in the hey-day of our own ease and amusement, we little calculate on the casualties which may occur with change of circumstance or season. For example, at that period of the year, when London becomes comparatively deserted", and most families are off on their annual trip of pleasure and recreation, some to Brighton, Ramsgate, Mar- gate, or other watering-places on the Sussex or Kentish coast; others to Southend, Walton-on-the Naze, or Harwich some taking a further trip north- wards into Suffolk or Yorkshire, and enjoying the sea breezes of Lowestoft or Scarborough, while thou- sands of other families prefer their seaside trip to the fashionable vi,ateri n g-pi aces of North and South Wales, or, perhaps, the distant coast of Cornwall, Dorsetshire, or Devonshire, the Channel Isles of Guernsey or Jersey, or, nearer home, to that most charming spot of wild romance at Black-gang Chine., and similarly attractive ocean scenery in the varied localities of the Isle of Wight,- there is nothing in bright weather to induce this host of summer visitors to believe that there needs a society for the future help of those happy and skilful mariners and fish- errnen who take us on a sailing or rowing trip over the glassy surface of a summer sea. Occasionally some gentle undulating swell tells us that this world of waters is capable of emotion but we never allow our minds to dwell on what a dangerous time it is when the storm and the wind rage across its decep- tive bosom in the snows of winter, or in the fluctu- ating hazards of an equinoctial gale. If the plea- sure-seeker has no such forebodings, these denizens of the sea-side hamlet will not rake up a tale of win- ter's horror when stern necessity compels the poor fisherman to venture on the deep to gain subsistence from his craft for wife and children, or a piteous J narrative of the dangers so many thousand mari- ners are compelled to undergo from their precanous lot, in life, and whose avocation it is "to occupy their business in great waters." But let our readers meditate on the urgent calls there are for anticipa- tion of the direst calamities by shipwreck, and the heavy sweJ! that swamps the boat of the poor fish- ermen, and proves a cause to make many happy wives lone widows, with hundreds of young child- ren fatherless and dependent on-the world. If these sea-side visitors who are only like summer swallows, remaining while sun and sea are bright, and calm, would investigate the condition of the men they em- ploy to minister to their pleasure in a ride upon the waters, they would appreciate a society like this; and then not an absentee from London would con- sider that he was exempt from a contribution to such an object. The proof of any Institution being valuable to society is found in facts; and when there is such a confirmation of its promised good, none will be sceptical about the channel to which their contributions are directed. This "Royal Be- nevolent Society of Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners, shall then tell its own tale, and the pub- lie will impartially weigh its pretensions to appeal for pecuniary assistance to carry out its charitable objects further and further still. Annual subscrip- tions and donations may be, of course, ad libitum, a life subscription is £5, and a life governor £ ]0, These apply to the general contributors among the public, and the proportionate increase of the sub- scription is commensurate with the advantages and patronage which each donor or subscriber may en- joy The mariners and fishermen are themselves also subscribers, or rather members by such sub- serintion, of the Society itself, whereby" in the case of shipwreck they are recompensed in clothing and money and if lost at sea, their widows and orphans re provided for on a gradual scale of peeuniary re- compense. In the year 1858, there were 3,32-0 ships wrecked, stranded, &c., of which 1,170 were wrecked on the coast of the United Kingdom. Relief was given in this year to 5,037 persons, besides 3,168 widows and orphans of seamen and fishermen, who received sums from f 14 downwards, making a total in one year of £ 8.205. The report for last is not yet published, but 10.-354 persons were relieve! being 1000 more in J859 than in 1858. From the foundation of the Society to 31st December, 1858, no less a number than 87,443 shipwrecked seamen, widows, and orphans have been aided by its funds These facts tell their own tale, and we hope the sea- | side summer visitors will so weigh them as to add a contribution in the balance ofexperifHifjre for their annual trip, and join the" Royal Benevolent Soci- ety of Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners."
