r TO THE electors OF THE COUNTY OF GLAMORGAN. GENTLEMEN, ) HE responsibilities and duties connected with this country, which have recently devolved upon ^ne» forbid me to hope that I could continue to Ifill the position of your Representative with that as- siduity which your important interests require. I .have, therefore, accepted the Chiltern Hundreds in lOrder to resign that trust which your kind confi- dence originally placed in my hands, and which it Ws enabled me to discharge for thirteen years of no 1 ordinary political vicissitudes. V For some time, my intention has been generally ¡known; but since the new writ cannot be issued Jbefore the meeting of Parliament, I deferred any (public announcement of my resignation until the jdose of the jear, in order to spare all parties the annoyance of a long protracted canvass. Ii Placed in a position most honourable, and in a manner so flattering to him upon whom your choice has, during three successive Parliaments, fallen, I j ave endeavoured to requite your confidence by an earnest desire to promote the welfare of our County, in which I must ever feel the liveliest interest, and a determination, on all questions of public policy, to carry out honestly my own convictions, irrespec- tive of their favour with particular parties. The terms of an address can but feebly convey the j warmth of my gratitude for the unvarying kindness I have received at your hands; but I should be doing injustice to my own feelings did I not state that my connection with Glamorganshire has been a source of happiness and interest, much surpassing what I could have anticipated, modified only by the < knowledge that I have fulfilled the duties of your Representative far less efficiently than I could have wished, or than your continued confidence has deserved. In thus renewing the tie which has so long united us, I may, perhaps, be pardoned for indulging the thought, that had circumstances permitted it, I might 4 -ftgain have been honoured bv being selected as your Representative; but although I can no longer aspire to this proud position, permit me to assure you in the strongest terms that the sympathies of deep in- terest and grateful recollection can never he broken, and to indulge the hope that frequent visits to Gla- morganshire will still further cement that intercourse which has always been to me a source of the highest gratification and happiness. I remain, Gentlemen, (Your very sincere and faithful Servant, DUN RAVEN. Ailare Manor, December 28th, 1850.

PAPAL AGGRESSION. GLAMORGANSHIRE COUNTY MEETING. AT a M EETING of the MAGISTRACY, GENTRY, CLERGY, ahd other Inhabitants of the COUNTY of GLAMORGAN, held at the Town Hall, Bridgend, on Friday, December 27th, 1850, and which had been convened by the High Sheriff in compliance with a numerously-signed Requisition, ROWLAND FOTHERGILL. Esquire, High Sheriff, in the Chair; It was proposed by Sir GEORGE TrLER, K.C.B., and seconded by HOWEL OWYN, Esq., M.P.,— That the following Address be presented to Her Maiestv the Queen: J 3 To the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty. The humble Address of the Inhabitants of the County of Glamorgan, in County Meeting assembled. May it please your Majesty,— We, the Inhabitantsof the County of Glamorgan, hum- bly approach your Majesty at the present crisis with the Btrongest sentiments of allegiance, affection, and loyalty Not onl) is your Majesty the supreme head of an essen- tially Protestant state, and to you "ppertnins the chief government ot all estates of this realm, but you are also, by virtue of your prerogative, the fountain of honour, and the only legal source of all titles and diguities to be used, exercised, or enjoyed throughout your dominions. We have, therefore, viewed with feelings of indignation and concern the attempt lately made by the Pope of Rome to interfere with the exercise of your Majesty's undoubted prerogative, by creating titles of honour with- out your Majesty's sanction, and by granting territorial jurisdiction to be exercised professedly overyour Majesty's Protestant 98 well us Roman Catholic subjects within your realm i the language used in the late Papal Bull being •tudioualy framed so as to claim an absolute sovereignty, by the Pope, over the whole of your Majesty's kingdom. We disclaim any wish to interfere with the legitimate exercise by our Roman Catholic fellow-subjects of their religious belief, and we are opposed to any measures which flaay operate in the least degree to the obstruction of the most full and free enjoyment of religious toleia- tion but these principles do not appear to us to require, that we should quietly submit to the encroachment which has been now attempted by the Pope, and which we con- ceive betu insolent intrusion upon ourgracious Sove- ""igll, who is. by the law of this land, the fountain of all honour and dignity, and the supreme bead of the State. We, therefore, humbly venture to express our hope that your Majesty, under Divine Providence, will devise such easures as shall be sufficient and effectual to repel this insulting aggression, and to guard against similar en- croachments for the future. And your Majesty's memorialists, in duty bound, will ever pray. On wbich the following Amendment was moved by the Rev. D. WILLIAMS, Dissenting Minister, and seconded hy Mr. THOMAS: That full religious liberty is the birthright of every Englishman, and that any legislative interference with the spiritual government ot an unendowed Church, which claims nothinsr from the State but toleration, is alike Im- politic and unjust. The above Amendment being submitted to the Meet- ing, was LOST by an immense majority; and the original Resolution, on being l>ui, was curried by an overwhelming dumber. It was moved by CHAKLKS RODNEY MORGAN. Esq., and seconded by MATTHEW MoGGRiDGE. Esq.,— That the followiugPetition be presented to the House of Lords: 7'" the Right Honourable the Lords spiritual and tempo- ral, in Parliament assembled. The humble Petition of the Inhabitants of the County of Glamorgan, in County Meeting assembled, Sheweth,— That our Sovereign Lady the Queen is the supreme head of this, an essentially Protestant state, and that to her belongs the chief government of all estates of this realm. That she is, by virtue of her prerogative, the fountain "f honour, and the only legitimate source of all titles and dignities to be exercised 0 and enjoyed within her do- minions. That your petitioners have therefore viewed, with feel- Inga of indignation and concern, the late attempt made by the Pope of Rome, by the introduction of a Papal Bull, to claim absolute sovereignty over her Majesty's domi- nions; and his having, by granting territorial jurisdiction to be exercised as well over her Majesty's Protestant as her Roman Catholic subjects, and by creating titles of honour without her sauctiou, interfered with the exer- cise of her royal prerogative. That your petitioneis disclaim any wish to restrain the legitimate exercise by their Roman Cat holic fellow-sub- jects of their religious faith, and they are opposed to any measure which may prevent the full and free enjoyment of religious toleration but they cannot quietly submit to the encroachments lately attempted by the Pope of Rome, and which they consider to be an insolent intrusion upon our gracious Sovereign and her royal prerogative. Your petitioners therefore pray that your Right Honour- able House will devise such measures asmaybesunicient and effectual to repel this aggression of .he Pope of Rome, and to guard against similar encroachments for the future. And your petitioners, in duty bound, will ever pray, &c. Carried by a large majority. It was moved by ROBEnT NICHOLL CARNE, Esq., and seconded by J.

NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS; Our Merthyr correspondent is mistaken, we infer from a private note to one of his communications the notice to correspondents, last week, to which he evidently refers, was NOT intended for his quarter of the world, but for parties whose prolix and verbose communications too often oblige us to omit local news from Merthyr, Aberdarc, Bridgend, and other places in which we are most largely interested. A PrcM of matter obliges us to omit our Thursday s Police report; and also the conclusion of the Inquest on the persons who were burnt in the Mid e u rjti Colliery. The verdict was (in effect) "acctdental death." ————^

THE BRIDGEND MEETING—PAPAL AG. GRESSION. THE Meeting at Bridgend went off very smoothly. If it wanted anything, it wanted a httle OpposItIOn, to give it a stimulus. Men's minds were made up; each found the other resolute and unanimous; all came there determined to act, and a most energetic protest followed.. This is very satisfactory. For none, but those altogether blind to the signs and workings of the times, or else those who are really interested m the progress of the Church of Rome, and we regret to say there are too many of the latter in our Church, can with any propriety remain indifferent spectators of the present move. While the Church of Rome is labouring to gain an ascendancy m the land, no Protestant ought to neglect the opportunity of being reminded of his privileges, and being warned against the man of sin. The liishop of Rome has pnt forth his claims so prominently, that no Christian of any sect whatever, is not in some way or other atlected by them. There has been among Protestants of late a growing indifference regarding the points m dispute between our Church and the Church of Rome, as well as a strengthening of the opinion that the two Churches after all differ but little on what is vital. It behoves every enlightened member of our Church, therefore, to protest most vigorously at the prtsent crisis, otherwise, our silence would be a mark of the degeneracy of Protestantism, as well as an encourage- ment to Popery. Our forefathers rose up manfilly, and endangered their substance and their life irt re- sisting claims not more arrogant, or more prominently put forward than the resent. It would, therefore, be a sorrowful sign of the sickliness and lukewarmr.ess of modern Protestantism, did we not all act, as hap- pily all have at length acted, with one accord in this great movement. Mr. NICHOLL CARNE regretted the Lord LifU- tenant was not present. We do not share in such regret at all. It was quite sufficient for us to see the entire Quorum there, as we are quite assured, that whichever way they lead, the CMS/OS will not he very Jong in following. These are times of high pressure, both within and without, and the period will never he long before the effect oozes out somewhere. As Sir Peter the Great said, if the authorities of the country do not themselves move, why the country must trove without them, that is all." It may be very liberal, and very Catholic, to tell us that this is all bigotiy that our agitation is uncalled for, and that our fears are groundless, impassioned, childish, and degrading \o the prevailing temper ot the times, which is charitablt, kind, enlightened, and so forth. Moreover, tht Popery of the nineteenth century, they say, is very different from the Popery of the fourteenth, it is much changed; it has assumed a more becoming and a more Christian-like aspect. This is, and this has been the grand characteristic of the Romish Church. She is marvellously wise in her generation; she adroitly makes use of every circumstance of the times, and, ever since she found out this to be one of them, she has never ceased to ply men with her specious state- ments, that she is not what she was. But those who know her, and who are not weak enough to be dazzled by her, know full well that the Church of Rome is ever the same, inherently, substantially, unalterably the same, bhe only assumes different aspects, in order to carry different purposes. This is itself a part of Popery. She has all the changeableness of the Chameleon, with all the venom of the Serpent. She will assume any garb; but each garb will have its bag of poison. Her very text-book of Theology, that filthiness put together by Dens, will ever announce to us, what Popery is. There is no doctrine ever so monstrous, which this text-book does not uphold as necessary to be believed; nor is there any practiee admitted in the midnight barbarism of the World, which it does not enjoin as Salvation to be done. Let liberal men so called, make peace, if they will, with Rome; or which is just the same thing, 1st them be indifferent as to her progress, and regardless of her claims; let imaginative Puseyites receive her into their chambers, and enshrine her in their Churches; let weak women and still weaker men plant her in their hearts, if they will; but we warn them, as sure as God is true, that the Popery thus honoured, thus fondly looked upon, is the very Popery loathed by the holiest of our forefathers, the very Popery,—the same in its corruptions—the same in its blood thirsti- ness—the same in its intolerance—the very Popery which lorded it over kings, spoke of itself as God, crushed human liberty, and martyred the Saints of Heaven. With such Popery we will have no peace; and were we ever so humble, and without influence, against it we will ever PROTEST.

On Christmas-day the Countess Dunraven, with her usual liberality, had a substantial dinner of roast beef and plum pudding, with plenty of cvyrw da, provided for up- wards of forty of the oldest inhabitants of the village of St., Brides Major. The health of the noble countess and family was heartily drauk by the recipients of her lady ship's bounty. The Gazette of Dec. 27 announces the promotion of Lieut. Robert Francis Lascelles Jenner, of the 4ist Foot. oddest eon of Robert F. Jenner, Esq., of Wenvoe Castle,) to be Captain in the same Regiment, vice Northey pro- moted.—The same gazette publishes the retirement from the army of Colonel Charles Lascelles, commauding the Grenadier Guards (only son of the late Colonel Lascelles, of Cottrell)and the promotion of Major Egerton, of the 77th Regiment, to be Ueut.-Colonel of that Ret. vice Dnberly, who retires. 0" Mus. BEOWNB'S ASSEMBLY.—This lively affair comes most opportunely (see adv.) to relieve the depression occasioned by the dull cheerless weather now prevailing It is usually well attended and we have no doubt that the forthcoming ball will have as many attractive features as those had which are now numbered with the past. Boy DROWNED.—A lad, named William Foster, aged 14 years, was drowned in the Bute Dock, at seven A.M. on Thursday (yesterday). The hapless little fellow was a native of Southampton and his death was caused by accidentally falling into the water from the brig Anne, of Sunderland. Imported into Cardiff, to John Rees, in the Ann, of Mil fold 2470 bushels of oats; in the William and Ann, of Carmarthen, 500 bushels of ditto in the Ellen, of Mllford, 2^25 tushels of ditto. WE perceive by an announcement in another part of this impression that the annual dumer at the Black Lion Inn, sLt Mary Srreet, is to take place on iuesday eVNEWTONXNOTTAGE.-A most liberal distribution of clothes, blankets, and other useful articles has been made ht the Kev. Robert Knight to the poor in this parish; and on Christmas day a large number of them was enter- tained with substantial roast beef and plum pudding by the kindness of Mrs. Lewellvn, of Court Coleman. I CARDIFF CATTLE MARKET.- Ibis market was wet supplied on Thursday with good stock Beef sold a from 4d. to 5d,; mutton at from 5ù. to 6(1.; and pork at SAINT JOHN'S CLOTHING CLUB.— Tn that great day when the Benevolent Creator ol the Lniveise shall deal with every man "according to his works "-not accord- ing to his professions or his promoters of th s philanthropic institution may, we think, with humble> .n devout confidence reflect upon the part they have taken in ministering unto the wants and necwsities of the poor by whom they are surrounded, oiider the auspices of the Rev. Thomas Stacev, and with his counsel and sane. tion, they have gone 01;, year after year performing the most pious & sacred offices to the sick and the infirm; and alluring others of the industrial orders whom ill-health had spared to the brighter paths of rational economy and reasonable forethought, so as to induce them to make pro, vision for the wants of their households, and to maintain a greater amount of respectability in their outward ap. nearancethan they had been accustomed to deem requi- site. During the year, at stated intervals-weekly, we believe- altendance is given at the school-room, m Crock- herbtown; and the contributions of poor people are re- ceived. These payments make up a large sum at the end of the year; and with it articles of clothing are purchased by the promoters of the club, at wholesale prices and of the very best materials,-each subscriber intimating before hand what particular thing he oi she should like to have purchased—whether flannel, blanket- ting, articles of clothing, &c.. &c. A few evenings ago we had the gratification of seeing an extraordinary pile of miscellaneous goods, which on Wednesday last were dis- tributed to the members,—each of whom was presented by Mr. Stacey with a copy oi" Bishop Blomfield's family Prayers and a quantity of coal-varying from 224 lb. to 448 lb., according to the relative indigence of the parties. We are not permitted to mention the names of the excel- lent ladies who take an active part in the charitable pro- ceeding. as thev are of that amiable class who do good by stealth and blush to find it fame;" but we are sure that they are entitled to the warmest gratitude of the com- munity at large for their disinterested and most benevolent ^THEDocKS—On Thursday morning, the 2nd instant, the Rev. J. Tinson Wrenford distributed to the slxty- = nock's Clothing Club (which was seven members of the.Do ck s C otni g WOiU. established by him a year ago)—parcels o inir apparel, &c., to the value of nearly A Urolith thf kindness of a few of the employers of the| poorer J Guest M.P..T.

Fumous DRIVING.—Soon after five o'clock on Satur- day eveuing last, as Mr. Edward Evans, of this towo. surgeon, accompanied by Mrs. Evans and some ot the younger branches of the family, was returning to Cardiit in his carriage, at a short distance from the town, on the North-road, he perceived a horseman approaching, who was galloping at a furious rate; and shortly afterwards he saw another person following in a dog-cart, driving at the same unwarrantabtespeed. Mr. Evans took the precaution of keeping to the extreme left side of the road, and by so doing the horseman passed on harm- tessty but the dog-cart came in violent collision with Mr. Evans's horse, which animal sustained au injury that occasioned bis death on Wednesday night-olil: ot the shafts having penetrated his lungs. It is most fortunate and, considering all the circumstances of the case, most surprising that some serious, if not fatal, injury was not sustained by Mr. Evans's family, or by himself, as the force of the concussion was so great that the vehicle was turned round, and the horse dashed off at full speed, but i i nnt strength to run more than a comparatively short i-1 nn? As the whole affair will probably form the wont of inve»tiKati°n ia oourt of law, we abstain 5 n» further remarks than roeraly to state that the w ««■»» w" ««»•»"•» CONSIDERATE SYMPATHY.—The Marquess of Bute's Trustees have made a reduction of TWENTY PER CENT. to the Glamorganshire tenantry of the Bute estate. The Archdeacon of Cardigan, and Arch-Megalithic of Cambria, has been for some time on a visit to Mr. Bruce Fryce, atDyffryn Golych, and has discovered the remains of a Cromlech, with its exterior circle of stones, hitherto unknown, to the South East of the large Cromlech on the Tinkin's Wood Farm, Saint Nicholas.— Ihe learned Archdeacon proceeds from Dyffryn to Llanover to arrange with Gwenynen Gwenl the programme for the next great Abergavenny Eisteddfod, which is to be presided over by General Sir Love Parry Jones, (whose son, though very young, is one of our most promising archajologists). THE OLD YEAH.—Notwithstanding the very festive and joyous proceedings which take place at this season of the year according to time-honoured custom, the old year slides away from our view with many serious and solemn reflections calculated to teach a moral lesson to mortal man. Few, indeed, are there amongst us who have not had to mourn the ravages caused in the domes- tic circle by the last enemy" during the year that has almost, as it were, imperceptibly passed into eternity. Surely "we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told." The Rev. Thomas Stacey, at St. John's Church the Rev. W. Leigh Morgan, Vicar of St. Mary's; and the Rev. J. T. Wrenford, solemnly addressed their seve- ral congregations, on the right improvement of time, on Sunday evening last. The latter reverend gentleman held also a special service at the St. Mary's National School Rooms, on New-year's eve. GLAMORGANSHIRE AND MONMOUTHSHIRE INFIRMARY. — The annual meeting of subscribers to this Charity was held on Thursday afternoon [yesterday], and was attended by the following gentlemen-.—Walter Coffin, E«q.. in the chair; the Rev. J. M. Traherne, Rev. T. Stacey, Rev. James Evans, Rev. W. Leigh Morgan, E. P. Richards, Esq., C. C. Williams, Esq., Captain Armstrong, Charles Vachell. Esq., Dr. Moore, Dr. Vachell, Dr. Edwards, James Lewis, Esq., Edward Evans, Esq., jun., H. J. Paine, Esq., Montague Grover, Esq., John Bird, E3Q., Elias Basset, Esq., and Messrs. Henry Webber, J. B. Woods, Griffith Philips, James Pride, and the house-surgeon, Mr. F. Evans. We are obliged to defer our report of the proceedings till next week; but we may state that the institution seems progressing most favour- ably, and that the house-surgeon was spoken of in terms of unqualified praise for his humane attention to those entrusted to his care. CARDIFF POLICE.—MONDAY. [Before C. C. Williams, E-q., and C. Vachell, Esq.] Three persons were summoned by the police, charged with having lett their respective carts in Working-sireet to the annoyance of the inhabitants.—Cases dismissed on pay- ment of costs; and on promising not to offend similarly in future. DISREPUTABLE CONDUCT. Thutnas Parry, draper's assistant, of Newport, was charged with having been drunk and disorderly at the South Wales Railway statiun in this town. on Thursday night last; and with having assaulted P.C. Joseph Garrett—It appeared in evidence that Parry and several others were drunk on the platform, and behaving with great impropriety upon which they were told by the statiou-clerk on duty, that if they did not desist they must g > away. They paalno attention to this remonstrance; aud it was found necessary to endeavour to get them off the platform, which was dose without vio- lence. In a short time the defendant was seen again on the platform, having got orerthe rails, it was conjectured. lie was behaving rudely, and was told that he must go away. He refused to do so. P.C. Garrett tlu-n took hold of him, and was assaultvd. With much dillicuhy Ihe defendant was taken to the oflice. He resisted violently, »s did aLo his companions. Ultim.iteiy he was secured.—John Wallinger, a clerk at the station, said that he saw the defendant, on Thursday night, walking up and down the platform ia a drunken state—disturbing people; upon which witness or- dered the policeman to put defendant outside. That was done; but in a few minutes afterwaids witness observed the defendant to be again IIn the platform and twain misbehaving himself, for which he was taken into custody. He struck a porter nained Thomas Howell. There were 200 or 300 people on the platform at the time, as a train was momen- tarily expected. Mr. C. C. Williams: Do you prefer one charge against defendant, or two? Superintendent Lnngdon One. sir. The case having been concluded, Mr. Price, Duke-street, v»ry kindly came forward, and gave the defendant a "nod claiader for gcneral respectability. Mr. Price conceived thtt the defendant had been treated somewhat harshly, as bal was retus<!d, although teudered. Superintendent Stockdale said tbat it was a matter (If discretion whether to take bti) or not. In this instance Íj wood have been imprudent to have taken bail at the t tne it W18 first tendered. Tie Magistrates animadverted in strong terms on the defeidant's conduct, and lined him 20s. and costs. Paid. ATTEMFTH) ROBBERY IN the mite J>OCK. Charles Dunn, a couvicted thief, was charged with having been bund on board the Friends, of Waterford, with intent to commit a felouy. He was caught on board the vessel under circumstances which fully supported the charge, —namdy, skulking at midnight near the" compani,>u," with ht boots off. which he had taken off and placed in anotheivessel so that his foot-steps might not be heard.— The prisoner said he had been an assistant in t ,e No. 4 pilot-boct for eleven months; and had behaved in that situation with perfect propriety.—E.lward Harries, pilot, said, that he could not say anything against the prisoner.— Sentence—To be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for six week. IRISH LIFE IN CARDIFF. Charles Daly and Ellen Duly were charged with having- damaged t door. the property of Michael Daly.—Mr. Kichaid 1.1. Reece appeared for the complainant; and Mr. John Bird for defendants.—The parties implirated in this affa r are all Iri;h aud at a late hour on Friday night amused themselves by a general "row" at N. 26, David--treet, where fouior five families are huddled together. We are tolil that inthis and similar houses therj are several rooms each room let to a distinct family, and each family hate their respective lodgers, so that a most crowded and mis celUneous tfesembUge meets the eye of any nocturnal visitor who "ay choose to make enquiries into the pecu- liarities of 'Irish life in Cardiff."—Ihe evidence was s) defective tht the case broke down aud was dismissed. Arising at of the same transaction was a charge of assault, preferred by the same complainant against John Dove.—Co(ii(lainant after detailing various matter s. posi- tively swore hat the defendant made several efforts to get at him with akuit'e which he brandished repeatedly but could not U9t it Complainant was ultimately struck by Charles Daly nd John Dove. He was struck mire than once till he out of his senses." The police quelled the disturbance. Mm Dove, with the knife in his hand, made the most violent threats, saying,—"I have only one life; an-i before I loseihat I'll have two." Michael Dily, his cross-examination, said he had been up to the halt fou times for assaults. Mr. John Bird: How otten do you say, Mr. Stockdalc ? Suprmtendent Stockdale: 1 cannot say, sir. The charges that have been preferred against him are too numerous to be reflected (laughter). Michael Daly, in tply to further question*, admitted that he had cixteeu todies, as well as his own family, residing in one small teneincit. Mary Welsh, a IDarieJ woman, confirmed what had been said respecting the ttempted use of the knife by John Dove. There was au" Irish wake" in the neighbourhood that night. She sawlefeudant ttriking the complainant. Defendant and Ctiarl? Daly broke the door open but they hadpreviouifty applle to have it opened and complainant would not do so bec^jse he was afraid of his life." For the defence, Elen Daty was called; and from her account the complainut had been the aggressor. She swore positively that Die had not a knife in his hand; aud that complainant used ifooker aud shovel free'y. The magistrates said ijis was one of those Irish ca-es in which it. was difficult to rrive at the truth, and dismissed the case, ordering the r^pective parties to pay the costs between them. ASSAULT AN PRIVATE SLANDER. Martha Coles, a IOltrricll",omau 01 respectable appearance, residing in Ilnberts's-coui, Bridge-street, was charge with having assaulied William [or<;au,on the 22nd of December. —Mr. John Bird appear*} for defendant. — Wm. Morgan swore that the defendant hd struck him three times without any provocation, accompany,^ her violence with the foule-t language. All this occurrq at mid-day on Sunday week. The complaiuaut was coofimej by another witnes'.— For the defence, Anne Williamvras called, who said that com- plainant had vilely traducft Mrs. Coles's character,—that she (witness) had told her hsband who hnd repe'ited it to Airs.

GLAMORGANSHIRE QUARTER SESBLO.NB. [CONTINUED FROM oun VOURTII PAGK ] Mr. HUTCIIINS admitted the ACCURACY of what had fallen from Mr. flruce Pryce; and obseried that the railway could not be protected by enclosures without in- terfering with the rights of commoner! whose cattle had a right to cross that railroad. But it was unnecessary to enclose that railroad and no court could compel its pro- prietors to build a wall around it: it was legally impossi- ble to do so. The next charge was that of having packed the coal in the waggons in such a negligent manner that it fell off. Any magistrate who had anything to do with the coal works must know that no attention to pack- ing" could prevent depredations on mineral property; and in support of this- allegation Mr. Hutchins entered into a description of the approaches to the coal works and the mode of conveying coal therefrom. He was pro- vided with an affidavit which showed that when the coal was proceeding in waggons along the railroad, parties got on top of the waggons and actually shook down a part of the coal; and loosened the whole mass so as to cause other portions of the coal to fall as the waggons went on which they subsequently took opportunities to pick up and steal. Against depredations of that kind it was most difficult if not almost impossible to guard. But the most serious part of the charge made by the right honourable gentleman against the Dow- lais Company was this—that there was a hole in the wall of a yard from which coal was frequently stolen, through which aperture parties entered and thereby were enabled to commit depredations; and that (it was said) if the Dowlais Company had gone to the expense of five shillings by stopping up the hole in the wall, coal rob- beries from that yard might have been prevented. He (Mr. Hutchins) put it to the magistrates whether, if the Dowlais Company had conducted their business in the negligent maimer which the nature of this allegation might induce the public to believe they had, instead of having a large establishment which afforded a valuable market to an extensive agricultural district, would not they (the Dowlais Company) have been long ago re- duced to bankruptcy 1 He had the affidavitof the mason who swore that he had built up the wall over-night and that it had been pulled down before morning. As long as they kepton building up the wall mid-night marauders pulled it down; and the course that was adopted to de- feat the intention of such determined plunderers, was to abandon any further building up and to put a man inside the yard to keep watch and in all the cases ofcoal rob- bery from that place that watchman was the very man who gave evidence. The Dowlais Company incurred the expense of maintaining two or three watchmen and still it had been said that they had not paid proper at- tention to their property. They had done everything that could be devised; and at length they had applied to Captain Napier for two police-constables, who would be under his control, but paid by the Dowlais Company. There are two descriptions of cual-stealers, — wotkmen who pay so much a month and have so much coal; and parties who pay for no coal; and not only do not pay but actually make it a positive practice to steal all the coal they can get for their own consumption and make a trade of selling coal about the town and almost all the prosecutions that had proceeded from the Dowlais works had been directed against incorrigible offenders or parties who stole coal and sold it in that way the company would not think, of sending a man down lo Cardiff to be tried for stealing a lufop of coal, but only for systematic plunder. The doctrine of thought honourable chairman was of a dangerous description, that the company should enclose a railway which was carried over a common over which many parties had a right to travel. The CHAIRMAN interposed; and observed that they were trying the learned gentleman in his absence: what authority had Mr. Hutchins for saying that the Chairman (Mr. Nicholl) had ever stated such a doctrine? Mr. HUTCHINS replied that his authority was the report in the CARDIFF AND MERTHYR GUARDIAN (copies of which newspaper be produced); and observed that the suggestion made by the right honorable gcntleman- (that of enclosing the railroads—would interfere with the rights of commoners who had the privilege of depas- turing their sheep and cattle on unenclosed lands. The costs of prosecutions were allowed in cases when sheep or a pony had been stolen from a common and the owners of such animals were not required to keep a man to watch them. Robberies of a similar description might be made from fields; and it was a dangerous doctrine to taydown, that costs of prosecution would not be allowed when property had been unprotected as in numerous instances it would be impossible to throw any other shield over property except that which the law provided. Take the anna's of crime; and it would be found that the great criminals of the country began with petty larcenies j and from trivial offences had gone on to the commission of crimes of much greater magnitude. In his (Mr. Hutchins's) humble opinion all the exettions which were now made to build churches in this county or to establish schools would go for nought if such a doctrine should go forth as had been promulgated by the right honorable Chairman. He (Mr. Hutchins) had not alluded to what the Dowlais company paid ill county rates, because he held that whatever rate a man paid he ought to have the protection of the county as well as a mall who paid largely. Still he thought the magistrates would agree with him in opinion that the heavy amount paid in county rates by the Dowlais company was a sufficient guarantee that they would not wantonly cause any expenses to be thrown upon them. During the two years which he remained at Dow- lais he (Mr. Hutchins) never sent one coal-stealer to be tried; but gave offenders the option of paying a fine—which might not have been a legal course. — Mr. Hutchins con- cluded by expressing his opinion that he thought the ironmasters and coal owners of the county fully entitled to as much legal protection on the part of the county as other parties: and instead of having obstacles thrown in their way, they should be supported when they brought criminals to justice. The CHAIRMAN (Mr. Henry Thomas) then rose and said—His honourable friend had moved—"That this court do reconsider the costs of prosecution in coal cases;" and he should now state his reasons lor taking so unusual a course as to move, on the con- trary, that that motion be not put from the chair, or, in other words, "the previous question." He never re- collected above one instance, ill the whole of his experi- ence, where this court had allowed a magistrate to move for a reconsideration of matters in which the mover had a personal interest, and which had already formed the subject 01 a decision by that court. That case was one where a magistrate of acknowledged eloquence, ability, and influence, opposed a new valuation of county rate, in which he was interested; but although he then supported his motion by all ex parte statement, sufficient, if sup- ported by adequate proof, to have upset any valuation in the world, yet this court by a large majority confirmed that valuatiou, and repudiated the principle that any < magistrate could bring forward in fhiJ"Court aoy matter of personal interest to himself, and withdraw that subject from the established routine of county business. AVhat was now the easel His honourable friend complained (himself a partner of the Dowlais company) of certain cases in which, that company being prosecutors, costs were refused to them by the Chairman in the exercise of his judicial duties. That was a principle he would strenuously resist—namely, the reconsideration of judicial decisions on the instance of prosecutors in a criminal pro- secution, and that whether the ground of dissatisfaction related to costs, or to any other incidents or accidents of the case. He did not mean to sav that his honourable friend was likely to be influenced by the trumpery amount ot costs in a coal prosecution. He knew no man less likely to be influenced by such a consideration than his honourable friend, But he did mean to say that his honourable friend was likely to be biassed, like all of ourselves and all mankind, by the circumstance that he himself was a party to a suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal; and he knew no man who was not so liable. He should think it highly improbable that of all the par- ties who appeared before them, auy one, either criminal or prosecutor, ever departed wholly satisfied by an ad- verse decision, whether relative to penalties or to costs. Now, he had already eaid he would not "ointo the matter at all of the coal cases alleged by his honourable friend for that in fact would be to try their Chairman for what he had done; but he happened to recollect one circum- I stance which occurred—namely, that before their Chair- man had refused costs, he had called on the counsel for the prosecution to show why they should not be refused, after which they were refused, so that his honourable friend had already been heard by his counsel—the ques- tion decided against him; and he now came forward, at a subsequent sessions, to re-open his own case as a ma- gistrate. Besides this, his honourable friend attempted to censure their Chairman upon the newspaper report of a charge he had delncred to the grand jury in the exer- cise of his judicial functions. His honourable friend had alluded much and often, in the course of his able state- ment, to the House of Commons. He would beg to re- mind his honourable friend that the largest and most powerful majority we had ever seen governing the House of Commons in our day, had broken ap, or rather broken down, for the first time, in an attempt to call in question the charge of a judge to a frrand jury io the execution of his duty. So averse were Englishmen generally to any interference with this particular function, that in the House of Commons itself, where, of all assemblies, the spirit of party ran highest, and the tone was least judicial, the first defeat ever sustained by the most unvarying ma. jority within our own memories, had been sustained in the attempt of the late Mr. O'Counell to call in question the charge of a judge to a grand jury. He had hitherto spoken as of a matter of principle he would now come to the effect of the motion. What Dr. Nicholl's senti- ments were he might not so clearly know as he otherwise should, since he hid not received" a letter written to him by Dr. Nicholl. But this he knew, that in any similar case of his own, he should consider it impossible, after such a motion had been carried in that court, to render any satisfactory service either to that court or to the county. Now, he respectfully admitted that in dealing with a motion before the court, they were bound no more to regard what might be Dr. Nicholl's private feelings than those of any other mau. But while they put out of their view his private feelings, he could by no means assent to their leaving out of consideration his public services. There were two kinds of Chairmen of Quarter Sessions throughout the couutry—those who were chosen from residence and influence in theif county, and those by reason of their professional skill from amongst the members of the bar. Both these kinds of qualification were united in their precent Chairman, and that in no common degree. In what he said of the Chairman, whom he was glad for once to find absent from his spat, he beg- ged to be understood not H1-- expressing the ordinary offi- cial courtesy with which a Vice-chairman would speak of a Chairman, or vice versa; but he must beg to assert his deliberate and conscientious opinion, that he had never met with any man whom it was so satislactory to consult on any matter (whether public or private), either of law or of mixed fact and law, as their present able and expe- rienced Chairman and as it would be affectation in him to say that he had never in the course of his lite met with men more eminently successful in lhe career of the law, so the very unusual superiority 01 Dr. Nicholl in legal analogies, or what was vulgarly called" a good legal head," had always appeared to him a matter of curious speculation. And it did seem to him a sort of proof that the study of that groundwork of all law—namely, the Roman law—practised in the civil courts where Dr. Nicholl was bred, that that training, added to a sulficient practice of English law to master its technicalities, and improved by that converse with the world and with the business of life, the opportunities of which weie afforded by his position as au active member of the House of Commons, and also as a resident country gentleman ;—it did appear to him that all these combined gave a greater mastery and quicker apprehension, even of law and legal science itself, than the mere dry, exclusively technical training of a practising English barrister. He had now given them his reasons against allowing this motion to be put from the chair. 1st. That it was contrary to all prin- ciple. 2ndly. That the effect of such deviations from principle would be to reuder the person alfecied by them, whether as judge, as magistrate, or as chairman, incapable of rendering any satisfactory service heiuifter. And, lastly, he had ventured to express to them the grounds of his opinion that there was no man now alive for whose services rendered to this county, they would find it so hopeless a task to provide a substitute as lor those of Dr. Nicholl. He would, therefore, move the previous question (loud cheers). Mr. COHIN concurred (we understood) with Mr. Henry Thomas, that this was a matter over which the court had no jurisdiction, lie suggested that Mr. Hutchins should instruct his counsel next 1.11111 tondduca tha 61'jturoenu whieb (Mr, Hutchins) had brought fpirwirii pi) (bit occMlWf Coffin cided in what had fallen from the Chairman respecting Mr..Nichpll—(cheers)—but would much rather that that deserved tribute which had been paid to him in his :tb- seure had been made under any other circumstances than incidentally to the present motion. He thought it was due to Mr. Nicholl; and he (.Ur. Coffin) hoped a better opportunity would be found of testifying to him (Mr. Nicholl) the high sense the county entertained of his services (loud cheers). After a few words of similar import from Mr. BnccE PRYCE, who, however, said he knew it was the custom for workmen's wives to put stones tinder the wheels of coal-waggons in order to shake the coal off, Mr. HUTCHINS withdrew his motion, observing that he never expected it would be adopted by the magistrates. His object was to show the magistrate's that the distinct charge which had been made against his relative and himself, of gross negligence, was not coirectly founded, -it was not the case. COUNTY ROADS BOARD. Upon the motion of Mr. COFFIN, the name of Mr. Jenner, of Wenvoc Castle, was added to the County Roads Board instead of Mr. Homfray, who had resigned. The Uev. ROBERT KNIGHT did not put the question of which he had given notice, to the Chairman of the Countv Roads Board, observing that he considered the matter had been settled at the last Quarter Sessions. He also intimated that he had published a statement in a news- paper. LUNATIC ASYLUM. The CLERK OF THE PEACE, in answer to a question from Mr. Gwyn, M.P., said that the conveyance of the land at Dan-y-Graig, intended for the site of the new lunatic asylum, had not been completed, in consequence of some legal difficulties arising from claims made by Colonel Cameron's creditors, who had registered debts against him to the amount of £ 20,000, He (Clerk of I the Peace) expected that some arrangement would be made ill the course of a fortnight.

MERTHYR AND CHILDREN S TEA. PAnTY. A. tea party was givtn to the children of the Sunday school, belonging to Twvnyro- dyn chapel, by lhe teachers. Abont a hundred and fifty children partook of the tea and cake provided for them- and judicious remarks, 00 the importance of education' were addressed to the parents, who had also been invited to attend at thectose, by Mr. C. H.James and Mr. A M. Hughes. TWYNYRODYN CHAFEL. The usual quarterly meeting of the Unitarians of South Wales, took place at Merthyr° in the course of this week. In consequence of the tea party being held at this chapel ou Christmas day, the meeting was commenced at the Cefn Chapel on Wednes- day. On Thursday, the services took place at the Merthyr chapel, when the Revs. D. LloyJ, Carmarthen, and J. E.

The services at the Cefn c'tapel were con- ducted by the Rev. J. James uf Gellioneu, aud the Rev. T. Thomas. ZOAR CHAPEL. On the evening of Cbristuni day, the Rev. BeDj'iuiin Owens, the regular minister of that spa- cious "lace of worship, delivered a lecture, for I he instruc- tion and entertainment of his congregation. The subject was If Saul of Tarsus;" we have heen informed by several intelligent friends that the subject was skilfully and ably treated; and that an audience, full to overflowing, retur- ned home much pleased and delighted. EXCURSION CLUB.— Twelve m >nths ago we recollect hearing the ltev. W. Rees, ot Denbigh, drawing down thun- ders of applause by the declaration that the Papacy was for ever fallen; but now we suspect it to be destined to live a little longer; and by the last publishers' circular, we have just happened to see. that Fleming's fall ol the Papacy is reduced in price. Yet notwithstanding ail the hubbub about the priests and Cardinal Wiseman, the Exhibition still keeps its pl .ee i» th.- public mind; and though the Pope should come to Westminster, we tvill still not be de- terred from having to see the glass palace and all its rich contents, The Prince Albert Excursion Club, is making rapid progress; the contributions are being steadily paid up in the course of this week, an additional "um of £20 was paid into the bank, making a preseut total of JLJO and we are informed that it is in contemplation to pay contributions regularly up to July next. A ZEALOUS PROTESTANT.—We have heard the ilssrrtioll frequently made, that as regards the pretensions of his eminence ot the red hat and stockings, the heart of the nation is sound. We will not answer for every part of Great Britain, but with respect to Cardiganshire we will become personally responsible; and the following incident will abundantly justify the confidence we repose ill the broad shouldered people of Ceredi-iou.

The third anuual literary meeting of the Merthyr Welsh Temperance Society was held at the Tabernacle chapel on CHRISTMAS DAY, when that spacious building, capa- ble of holding more than two thousand persons, was tilled to excess. The chair was filled by the Rev. JOHN KOBEKTS, the esteemed minister of the chapel, who, in the course of the business, delivered a very eloquent addicss on the culti- vation of Welsh literature and the preservation of the Welsh language.

ABERDARE AND NEIGHBOURHOOD. THE NATIONAL SCHOOLS, AND OUII DUTIES RESPECTING i THEM.—A very erroneous impression being abroad re- specting these schools, and industriously circulated by 1 interested parties, the vicar deemed it his duty, in a ser- inon lately, to call attention to the fact, and state most unequivocally that the principle upon which these schools ) were conducted was to make no distinction whatever as to J crerd. The child of the Dissenter, as well as the child of the Churchman, was admitted, and invited to attend on precisely the same grounds. No peculiar doctrine, no catechism was ever pressed upon the child, If the parent t so objected at the time of its admission. He was well r. aware that this was not generally understood, and that there were gross and wilful misrepresentations abroad respect- ing it. He proclaimed it, however, then publicly, and be ( invited any one to examine into the matter personally, and he would Sad that tht-ir system of education was as liberal and as scrupulous with regard to the conscience of any parent, who may think differently to the way they did, as I the ruos' conscientious Dissenter could ever wish to see. He thought it but justice to the.managers of the schools to make that known. But though they made uo distinction < as to creed, still he stated it most emphatically, and he withedl). to be most distinctly understood, that the basis of ttlltheir education was religion. For they had a tho- rough belief, that the great secret in bringing up children properly was always to regard them as endowed with im- mortality. The inslaut this was kept out of sight,—if they ] schemed and arranged as though the child had to live only ( Oil this earth, then the plan not being commensurate with the eud, the object would necessarily he until andinade- ( qnaie to secure the result. Children should < ver be brought Up. both at home and at nchool, and more especially poor j children, with the fullest impression thtt they were pre- paring them lor eternity. For if their education was < such that it referred only to this world, —if they did not ) take care that everything they tllng!lt their children was subordinate to a world after this, they then virtually im- pressed upon them a lesson as to the importance of this world far above the next; and children would not bestow iu concluding—however they might occasionally read them Ii lelisoo 00 religion-Ihat they attached a greater reality to present things than they seemed willing to a]|(),Vi More- over, he entreated them not to go away with any miscon- ceiied impressinus liD any brunch ot the subject, and more especially as to their own duties respecting the matter. He begged them not to suppose that when they had built their schools, and contributed towards their support, ihut the wm k was then done. Nothing was more fallacious, and yet noth ng more common, than such an idea. Schools required to be fed, as well all erected; they who contribu- ted towards their outlay, should aihocoutrtbute, in their measure, to see the schools filled. They should do so by exhortation, by interference among their workpeople, by questioning them whetliertheirchil iren availed themselves of the schools or not. By such a system of parental inter- < ference only among their workpeople they could ever hope to se" around them a sober, peaceable, educated, and con- tented population. If every one who had obligations and ] duties could only be impressed practically with this, what I might uot be done in that parish When a crisis arose or c when there was an emergency in trade, or a "strike" among the men, could they ever believe that there would J be such estrangement between master aud man, such a want c of confidence, all they usually saw on such occasions, if they themselves, their wives, and their daughters, were to f make it the sole gospel ol their lives to preach the gospel ( to those who depended upon them, and who added in return so much to their comforts and their nscessities. They might r ask him what that gospel was1 He who spoke as never r mau spake defined it to he—" To clothe the naked, to feed S the hu ugry, to visit the sick, and to teach the low ly." There was a fatal and, he would add, a most unjust, error abroad a which supposed that all this was to be dnue only by the appointed and specified ministers of religion. People who bad the most weighty obligations on their shoulders readily c deluded themselves, that it a minister were appointed to the I sphere they lived in. they had then no spiritual duties in- dividually but that all this, the teaching;, the visiting of ( the sick, tbe auperintendence of tbe schools, and the r preaching of lit" GO^PET, was the whole Mud sole wurk of tbe minister* Th#t titw-was tlie minister'* special work there would not. be hoped, be ever a minister in thig OQQQ. or erne to !lot *ip t« it, tQ j utmost of his power. l)u' that this WHS (he vri the mini-dry, and that none but lhe tnini-<trvXm^«» ev r take lot or part in it, was an error of the iii'iViiiiti^s»i''ns 4 kind,dang' rous to nil who etit'-rtamed it, as particular community who snlFrttl by it. lrWl<s^-Vf l«Sc 4/ r be done by the miuister, what would one minister be anion^ ten thousand? or even five thousand? Tiie work of re- generation was to be done only by tiie contact of mind upon mind, and heart upon heart. But what was o»?emind among so many thousands? No: they miglit be well asuured, that it ever the gospel was to he preached effectu- ally among their people, if it was ever to be brought home practically to their hearts, it must be preached by them- selves, by their own examples, their own self-denial, and their own precepts. These mHst be taken home with zeal and energy to the hearths and the inmates of their cottages. He feared this was a new doctrine to some of them; but it was a doctrine as old as the gospel; and it wns a doctrine, he was thankful to say, more generally acted upon than :t was wont to be done; and, he trusted, it would yet per- vatle them more and more daily. None could say the beneficial results that would follow a more direct 11110 a more personal interest in the welfare of those around them. 1 hey would then know the good from the bad, the ..been from the goats, and how to discriminate between them; the latter would become intfre the subject of controi and iff. spection; and the former would have a greater anxiety to keep a pure and an unsullied name. II abits of providence, if not of religion, would grow up among buys, aud habits of modesty, if not of purity, among girls. But, what would lie ot the utmost importance in a social, no less than a commercial, point of view, such labour of I ove would gi*'<s rise to better feelings among the classes below towards those immediately above them. The benefit would be rapidly seen to tall on employer no less than employed. There would he an end to all eslr.ui^ernem between tin: two classes. Either would see that tliey Ifave a common interest, and tint no cl;is, can be improved or injured, without a corresponding improvemert^ or injury to the other. Such labour of love would di.Jjat the root, and snap at the foundation of ^very grievaiKo beating npon a "strike." Mutual love between mas'er and man" mutual anxiety for each other's welfare, spiritual and temporal, these form the basis upon which peace a;]tl clllllen;ment shall remain ever stable, ever firm. In conclusion he would pray, that God would, in hid inercy, induce them to consider, and to apply, what had been said serioctsfy to their own hearts. May He make ihem all to remember that however manifold and bountiful their own luxuries might be at that festive season, in the same, nav, in a Jr<t- grtater proportion were there others whose homesteads were chilled with want, and disease, and misery. May He, indeed, so hind the reflections made about their hearts, that they midlt never lose the sense of thelll lesi, peradveut ore, u hard and unthinking woild mi^lit render their lot thai id Dives, MIX! tiie poor oniy thai, of J.tiZirus.

NEWPORT AND NEK;iiBOURHOOD. Ala. W. J ones, of Clvtha, Kiiil Mr. I'liiiipa, Wit*»n House, made a reduction ot tun ptr cent, to their tenants, at their recent lent audit.

N KWI'OIIT CATTLH MARKET.—Prices ranged as follows on Wednesday — Beef, from :L?s. to 3.3s. per cwt. mut- ton, from ->^tl. to 3d.; poik, from 8s. to 0s. per score. 'Ir c' 1 he 1 heatrical performances at Newport liarraek scon- tinue to be carried 011 most favourably and creditably and are a source of much iuriocent amusement. The i-etui-ns oil the Western V,i|ieys Railway have hitherto exceeded lhe most sanguine expectations of those interested in its prospprity. On Friday, the 27th ult., being St. John's day, Jacob J. Nicholas, Esq., timber merchant, of Newport, was duly installed as W. 31. of the Silurian Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons ill that town, for the ensuiu; year. Ihe brethren then sut down to a splendid diuner, at the Westgate Hotel, provided by Brother 11 alien, and a very pleasant evening was spent. The W. M. was unable to attend the banquet, in consequence of the death of his nephew, and tbe chair was taken by James Harrhy, Esq., surgeon. BRISTOL COURT OF BAXKRUDCY.—THURSDAY. Dec. '2<;th. —(Before Mr. Shum Tuckett, Registrar, acting f..r Commissioner Mr. Sergeant Stephen).— Re Taos. Ci.AitKfc Grocer, Newport.-The bankrupt came up on Monday on his adjourned last examination, and was asked a few questions by Mr. Trenery, who has hitherto opposed the bankrupt on the part of the assignees. It appearing that some of the books belonging to the estate had not been delivered to the olhcial assignee, the case was adjourned to the following day to enable enquiries to be made res- pecting them, and to have them produced. On Tuesday, however, the bankrupt was uuable to deliver the books', but had received information as to where they were to lie fouod. The case was therefore Hgain adjourned till this day, when the books were forthcoming Hod the explana- ttonot their not having been before delivered was, that shortly before the bankruptcy a sale by auction took place, at which the books iu question were put aside by the auctioneers, being considered useless. In consequence of the enquiries made by Mr. Treuerry, the bau krupt applied to the auctioneers, and there learned what had become of the missing books. In answer to the Registrar, Clarke stated that all his books and papers were now delivered to the ofiicial assignee, and no further opposition bein" offered by Mr. Trenerry, the bankrupt passed his I at examination.
