Eight culprits, six of whom were convicted at our last Assizesof the manslaughter of John Howling, at Swansea, and the other two convicted of forgery at the last Sommer Assizes, were shipped this morning on hoard the Bristol steam-packet for Bristol, whence they will'be conveyed to the hulks at Woolwich. D. Pugh, Esq., of Greenhill, near Llandilo, made the generous allowance of three shillings in the pound, to all the tenants on that estate, at the payment of their last rents; and should the present depressed state of agriculture con- tinue, we understand it is his determination to make a fur- ther reduction. SWANSEA HARBOUR.—On Monday, an adjourned Harbour Meeting was held at the Town Hall, when the following Tiustees were present:—Dr. Bird, in the chair; Mr. Aubrey, Mr. Benson, Mr. L. LI. Dillwyn, Mr. Essery, Mr. Glnver, Mr. Christopher James, Mr. Richardson, Mr. C. H. Smith, Mr. W. H. Smith, and Mr. O. G. Williams. The following Trustees, who are members ot the Town Council, were absent:—Mr. Dawe, Mr. D. Edwards, Mr. John Grove, Mr. Jones, Mr. W. Martin, Mr. M. J. Michael, Mr. G. B. Morris, Mr. Owen, Mr. Philipps, Mr. Sanders, Mr. J. J. Suick, Mr. T. Edw. Tliomw, Mr. Vivian, M.P., Mr. R. Walker, and Mr. D. Walters. The Mayor stated that he had received a letter from Mr. Vivian, and that that gentleman had presented the Council with six copies of the Neath Hatbonr Bill. Mr. Smith then moved the resolution, of which he had civen notice at a previous meeting, to the effect that two additional policemen be appointed to watch the quay and sides of the river, who were to be paid by the Trustees. Mr. Glover seconded the motion, which was opposed by Mr. Aubrey, Mr. Benson, and Mr. C. H. Smith, who contended that it was quite unnecessary to incur the expence of two additional policemen. The motion was lost. It was then carried by a majority of two—" that two lamps he paid for by the Trustees, one to be placed near the Steam-mill and the other at the Ferry-boat." It was then mined bv Mr. Aubrey, seconded by Mr. Glover, and una- nimously agreed to, "that the treasurer give C. R. M. Talbot, Esq., M P., and nees Williams, Esq., new bonds in lieu of the old ones, including all arrears of interest to the 25th of Decent Iter, 1842, and that the new bonds be dated the 25th December, L842." After which the meeting seperated. HoYAL INSTITUTION OF SOUTH WALKS.—Such of onr readeis as take an interest in the productions of nature, will be glad to learn that our countryman, A. Andrews, Esq., of the 21st Regiment, has presented the institution with a Zoological collection, made by himself in India. Thespeci- mens, the greater part of which consist of skins of birds, are j remarkably well-preserved, and many of these, from the great beauty of their plumage, cannot fail of affording plea- sure to the most casual observer among them also there are many of the rarer forms of the leathered creation, which will well repay the ornithologist for a careful examination. We are also happy to be able to state, that the extensive collec- lion of Canadian birds, presented to the institution last year by W. E. Logan, Esq., has been set up by Mr. Leadbeater, of Brewer-street, London, and will shortly be arranged in the Museum. We copy the following from the Morning Post, of Friday:—"Royal South London Dispensary.—Yesterday morning, a General Meeting of the Governors and Sub. scribers of the above valuable Institution was held, for the purpose of transacting the usual business of the Chaiiiy, and for the purpose of electing a Surgeon to fill that respon- sible situation, vacant by the death of Mr. Tamplin,—William Baker, Esq., in the chair. The usual business having been transacted, the polling, which excited the greatest interest among the friends of the respective candidates, was com- menced and kept up with great spirit until the close of the poll, when the election was declared to have fallen upon Mr. Evan B. Jones, of Union-street, Borough, Demonstrator of Anatomy at the late Webb-stieet School; the numbers being, for Mr. Jones, 328, Mr. Pettigrew, 198, being a majority for Mr. Jones of 130. The thanks of the meeting were nnanimonsly voted to the Chairman, after which it separated."—[It is with great pleasure we observe the uni- form success that has attended the professional career of onr former fellow-townsman.] On Friday evening last, dense volumes of smoke were observed issuing from the shop of Mr. Reece, chemist, Wind-street, io this town, which at first greatly alarmed the neighbours. It appeared that the apprentice, in Mr. Reece's absence, was engaged in preparing some composition on the fire, composed of comoiistible drugs, which accidentally caught fire, and the youth endeavoured to throw the vessel and its burning couteots into the street, bnt in doing so bis apron caught fire. In consequence of the prompt exertion of Mr. Cock, grocer, DO serious damage tock place, beyond the Itoy's hands being severely burned, which were imme. diatelv attended to by Mr. Shepherd, chemist. INTRODUCTION OF WILHEM S METHOD OF SINGING INTO LLANELLY.—A few weeks ago, two interesting Lec. tures were delivered by Mr. T. 1. Lynch, at the Infant School-Room, in this town, on the efficiency of the method adopted hy Williem; at the close of the last, a committee was formed for the purpose of making the necessary ar- rangements; and on Monday evening, Mr. Williams, accom- panied by a large pa, ty of his pupils, visited Llanelly, at the invita ion of the committee appointed, to introduce the above system, and gawe the inhabitants a practical proof of its efficiency. The Infant School-Room was crowded bv a very numerous auditory, who had the gratification of hearing an excellent selection of mnsic afi nÚabh sung. Nearly all the most influential persons residing in the town and neigh- bourhood were present on the ocoasion. Mr. Lynch, in a brief address, invited the aid and co-operation of the gentry, professional men, and inhabitants generally. After the performance, which reflected great credit on the teacher and the taught, [\1 r. Lynch moved n »ote of thanks to Mr. Williams and his class, for so readily responding to the in. vitation addressed to them which, being seconded by W. Chambers, jun., Esq., was carried with acclamation. So mnch interest has been excited in this town, that the com- mittee anticipate the immediate formation of a large and efficient class. Several donations towards the requisite fnnd were announced at the meeting. We trust the example of L'anelly will be speedily followed by other towns in the Principality. CARMARTHEN TIN Wonns —We are informed, upon good authority, that these Woiks are now taken by the Messrs. Waynes,of Gadlys, near Aherdare.

A servant was sent to the dairy, on Monday, to fetch some flour to make a cake, and it appears that a'genie had been mixed w ith some ilia pan, to destroy rats Being ignorant of this, she took the wrong pith to her mistress, who: tinconsciouslv made a cake from tt. All who partook of it, were made more or I^ss ill, and one of the labourers (rhos: Williams), died from its effects. The remainder of the family are out of danger. IVQUKSTS.— On Thursday sennight an inquest was held before Chas. Colhn", Esq Coroner, on the body of a child, aged three years, daughter of John Jones, of T.eboih, near this town. It appeared th-it the parents, hating gone to Llaugafeiach fair, had left three child en shut up in the house the children got playing with the fire, wliich caught deceased's clothes, and she was so se>erely burnt, that rlemh ensued.- On Monday l^st, another inquest was held before tlie same gentleman, on the body (If tllP infant son of Griffith Jones, cotipertnatt, aged two years.

CORN-LAW MEETING.
CORN-LAW MEETING. According-to announcement, a PuMic Meeting was held on Monday evening last, at the New Trade's Hall, High-street, Swansea, for the purpose of diffusing information explanatory of the evil effects, upon all classes, of the laws restricting the importation of food. Mr. Joseph Rutler, who occupied the chair, introduced the subject to the notice of the meeting, by a general view of the operation of the Corn-laws within the last few months. Besides j the serious injuries inflicted by those prohibitory laws upon the commercial and manufacturing interests of [he country,Wey were any thing hat beneficial to farmers-Ihe class for whose interest they had been professedly enacted. Slight observation would convince anv one, that the Agricultural interest was at that mo- ment more depressed than ever. Though it had been asserted, over and over again, that the Corn laws were intended to benefit farmers, he would assert, that the landlords only derived any benefit—and theirs was merely temporary. If those landlords, who called themselves the farmer's friends, were reallv interested in the welfare of farmers, they would lessen their burthens, bv reducing rents, and different other imposts, such as the land-tax and tithes. There was no cia,s who employed so mnch capital as farmers, and who were yet so badly remunerated. This was all to be attributed to what was falselv called protection. These la*vs deceived the farmer, by the promise of high prices, which were never realized. AH other trades advanced, though without laws /or their especial protection. Grocers.drapers, ironmongers,&c., were advancing, while the farmer was nearly stationary. The only way to benefit the British farmer would be to tessen bis ex- pences he would then require no protection. If left to depend upon his own skill and industry, he would flourish as well as others. When a Grecian philosopher was basking in the sun, some one asked him, it he could in any way be of service to him. The philosopher replied, Get from between me IInd the sun— let me alone." So he (Mr. R,) would say to the legislature, let the farmer alone, and he will prosper." So great was the vanationsof prices, caused by protective laws, that they naturally misled the farmer. Under the old law, they could not pros- per, when corn was at9as.. and now it varied from 5Gs. down to 45s. Let trade he revived hy the abolition oflhe Corn-laws, alld the farmer would prosper: in proportion to the increase of trade; would he the prosperilybolb oflbe agricultural,commercial, and manufacturing interests. So great was the depression of manu- factures, that in the parish of Manchester the poor-rates were as high as 15s. in the pound—one seventh of the whole population being; paupers. So fearful was the oecrease of trade ill that manufacturing town, that. the quantity of forty thousand hundred weight less of cheese was sold there in 1842 than in 1837, thus manifesting the operation of those laws upon farmers, by causing a decreased consumption of agricullural produce. There was also a decrease of the large sum of seven millions, paid in workmen's wages, in Manchester in 1842, compared with the amount paid in the year 1837. The men of Sheffield and Birmingham, thus thrown out of employment, could not turn their bands to other trades. Mr. Rutler contended that the eflects of monopoly in olher articles were proportionably injurious to the community. The sugar monopoly had the effect of raising that article to seven- pence and eijihtpenoe a pound, whereas it could otherwise be had at threepence or fourpence. Iflhemonev thus obtained were ap- propriated to the use of the State, the objection could not be so great; but it went to ihe pockets of a class who were nothing better than paupers, or pensioners, quartering themselves upon the country, 10 the great detriment of the rest of the community. An instance of the advantages of free trade might be adduced in the case of Switzerland. Though a very small country, and situated among powerful nations, which pursued the restrictive system, Switzerland flourished, with scarcely any thing which might be called taxation. The late treaty made with the Court of St. Petersburg!], by whicb some imposts bad been taken ott, and an approximation to the principles of free trade effected, had already revived trade in some decree and if simi ar treaties had been en- tered into with Belgium, Austria, and other countries, they would produce equally beneficial results. Mr John Jenkins, M.A., proposed the first resolution, 1 hat llie various cín:UIll8Ianc. attendant 0/1 the present general depression of trade, are, in the opinion of this meeting, strontr confir- mation i,l Hie necessity of extendiu" our markets, and of our adopting a free trace policy.'> He (Mr. J.) appeared before them on behalf of the Anti-Corn- law League, which was formed for the purpose of diffusing in- formation and making use 01 all the peaceable means in their power, to exhibit to the country the evI! effects of monopoly upon nil classes. The Corn-laws were laws enacted for the purpose of preventing the people of this country to exchange the produce of Iheir labour for the corn produced by other countries. hat rendered this tax more intolerable was, that it was imposed entirely for the benefit of the landocracy. It was a tax upon all lor the benefit of the few forming that class. There was some shadow of vindication, Mr. Jenkins observed, for all taxes, how- ever bad, levied for the support of the state. There were ex- penses to be defrayed connected with the Government but by this tax, the Stale derived no benefit, it was a tax levied by a Isudlord Parliament, for the exclusive benefit of tbat OIRSS. Not only did it rise the price of corn to the working man, but it lessened his means of purchasing by decreasing trade The nation that practised the principles of prohibition, always suffered from its ellects. Mr. Jenkins gave, as an illustration, the case of France, the Government of which was as anxious to shut out foreign iron as our Government was to exejude foreign corn. The result was, that the people of France paid a much higher price for their iron than they otherwise would, in addition to causing countries producing iron, to iwipose a retaliatory duty upon some articles of French manufacture. Tit for tat" was as bad a motto commercially a* morally, and the object of the Anti-Corn-taw League was to show that it would be more bene- ficial io all nations to cultivate a mutual understanding with each other, than enact restrictive commercial codes. Mr. J. quoted extracts from the report of the Import Duties Committee," in which manv of the most experienced merchants and manufac- turers of the eounln 811lled, ill evidence, that the present de. pressed stale of the Iron-trade, together with many other branches of national induslri, was entirely attributable to our restrictive policy. Though Swansea was less effected by depression of trade than the great majority of manufacturing towns; yel, it was not exempt from the effects of high duties, as was testified by the great number of potters thrown out of employment bv the dulies imposed upon earthenware imported into Spain. IVIr. J. concluded a very able address by slating that he did not then enter fully into the question of tree-trade in all its bearings, as he in. tended delivering courne of leclurell on the subject at that Hall, commencing next Monday. Mr. Valentine Glutton Slwonded tbe resolution, and appropri- ately illustraied the evils of monopoly by referring tc the effects of the Spanish rarifTopot) the potteries of this town. Mr. John Rutter, ofShnftesbury, proposed the following reso- lution — 'fini 11:i.« meeting express their unqualified reprobation of the in»i- nuatioiis implied in the charge prriVired hy patties in the Hon-* of Commons against'Mr. Oohilen and while this meeting express Iheir approbation ot the real, tahnt. and high principle evinced by the Honourable Member lor Stockport, in hi- advocllcy or free and Imre. sliicted commerce, they highly approve of the pexceable piinciples on which Ihe League the Anti-Corn Law caure, appealing only to Ihe reason, ami relying solely on Ih" good principle IIn" inex- tiiiKiiishaUle love "f justice wlokh Ch:H3cteri-e Englishmen." —Sir. liutter observed; that if the Corn-law question was a mere abstract political question, he would not speak upon the subject, as he had had quite enough of politics, in his more yooihfnl ilavs, to satisfy any man; bnt he considered it a question in which the principles of morality and religion were involved. Though living io the midst of an agricultural district, he had advocated the principles which the Anti-Corn-Law League now endeavoured to carry out, twenty years ago, when liberal principles were not so fashionable as now. He then told the farmers that the Corn-laws did not benefit them. But besides being commercially injurious, he advocated their repeal because they were detrimental to nio- r«litv, which he endeavoured to practise, and to the cause of religion, which he professed. He had the greater pleasure in proposing that resolution, because he personally knew Mr. Cob- dan. and was an admirer of the peaceable priocipte" upon which that gentleman carried out his views—by appeatingtothe best feelings of lIIen -to their understanding and their love of justice. I' the League had not acted upon those principles, be (Mr. R.) would nut niter a syllable in its advocacy, as he belonged lo a class who regarded with the greatest reprobation anv appeal to phvsical force who considered II!I war nothing belter than a multiplication of murders. Mr. Rutter concluded a very lucid and convincing nddress, which from the press of assize intelli- gence, and other matter, we are compelled to abridge. Mr. James Rogers, surgeon, then briefly seconded ihe motion. Mr. Cudlipp, as usual, rose to contend that trade extended misery—that nothing would do but to xdop the Charter, which would radn-ate all our grievances— which he described as the Sovereign balm for all our wounds." Some of his arguments excited much lliughler aud interruption. Mr. Jenkins prevailed upon the meeting to listen, as all had a right to be heard but this paragon of oral. rs could not well proceed, a* he had lelt at home the copy of the Northern Star, from which he generally reads his speeches, when interrupting public meetings. After a short reply from Mr. John Rutter to the crude notions respecting the Charier, the meeiin.; separated.

Meetings ot the workmen are frequently held, all,1 their object openly avowed, but -everything is conducted in a pe.icelid mannet, an<l although reports are daily circulated of the disturbed condition ot the hills, yet-we, on the spot, have no knowledge of it.

ABEROA VlENNV C V M REI G Y D D ION. To the EDITOR 4f The CAMBRIAN. LETTER 10. Why should 1 play the Roman foot, and die On mine own sword 1 Whiles I see fives, the gashes Do better upon them."—MACBETH. SIR,—My second reply to Taliesin Williams, Esq., if not oriel, shall be good-tempered. When he said that my statements were untrue, he should have explained whether he meant all or ''Tf' IT ''e a" were false, he has contradicted him- se He appropriates to himself the "damning facts," which appeared in the 8lh Jelter. Since Ihe cap tils him, it would be 0 y lor me to take it oil". In writing of the Cardiff Society, I merely stated a fact. He admits its accuracy, but asserts that I live placed an insidious constrnction upon it. That no such intention existed, will at once be made evident, bv the following extract from the letter in question :—" 1 think it inv duty to f'pl,\y" i? ,houS!' Daniel Ddu and the party referred to ( Lsq.), are unhesitatingly exculpated from anv charge of dishonesty, nor can the expressions nsed, without injustice, be insidiously construed." How inconsistent with a character so ful of r.iinntng and malignity, as mine is represented to be, it is to have paid Taliesin illiams, Esq., so very high a compliment, as to suppose (without any authority) that hp had the virtue to resist the temptation, whereas I ought lo have said nothing bat left the public to draw their own conclusions. When Mr. W.'s nallle is nowhere loand (in these letters) in connection with any offensive or injurious expressions, one is readv to a«k, why this animosity against me? Why apply to me such a host of epithets. A disproof of my statements alone can confirm bis assertions, or in any measure alTect me. While he avoids coining to particulars, and showing what parts of my letters are false, the public will not deem me "a villain," but one who, con- sciously virtuous, calmly looks down upon the pigmy efforts of his detractors, and does not think their petty malignity worthy of notice. I have beencalleu "astanderer," and accused of "traducing" private character. Whom have I slandered—whose character have I traduced Are they the Secretaries, who held at the same time two offices, wholly incompatible, the proper perform- ance of each of which was decidedly prejudicial to the other? Is it to be supposed they had the self-denial not to prosecute their personal interests to the prejudice of the other competitors? Before reading Ab Iolo s last letter, I thought him guiltless, as will appear from the quotation in the first paragraph. Whether the schoolboy-eagerness with which he presses forward, declaring, Indeed he did not write to the judges," arises from conscious "Indeed he did not write to the judges," arises from conscious guilt, is a question for public decision. What reason can there be given for holding an office, if not with an intention to perform its duties? Where is the man, of common honesty, who would not, knowing himself to be a competitor, resign his emoloyment* Were there none others capable of performing its duties ? Taliesin Williams, Esq., has very effectively slandered his own character, but I have not. Whom have I slandered? Is it Taliesin Williams, Esq., who did not scruple to exalt his friend, at the expense of the reputation of all the Bards of Wales, in declaring that the col- lective talcut of Wales could not have produced a poetical com- position to equal Iolo Mynwy's Cerdd Arwest? Whose cha- racter have I traduced? Is it Caledfrvn's, who (to borrow a phrase from Mr. Williams's Druidic records), in the face of Heaven, and in the eye of light," declared that South Wales had not one bard of genius and talent" (Ab Iolo, of course, among those "found wanting"); by which declaration he represents Ab Iolo to have uttered a gross falsehood, when he said that Gwilym Ilid would soon be "lJrilfardd ?" Is it Mr. Price, the worthy and inteUigent Vicar of Cwmdu, whom I have slandered— whose character I have traduced? How comes Ah Iolo so sen- sitive for the honour of Mr. Price? Are there any choice pickings in the Vicar's gift ? I have already paid Mr. Price a compliment, which must be considered very high, for the character which extorts a compliment from me, is not an ordinary one. I have censured Mr. P. for allowing antiquated prejudices to cloud his intellect-a censure which, from the want of the latter ingredient, does not so materially affect Ab Iolo as it otherwise would. He I was censured for confining the attention of the Society, and the laboors of literary characters, to subjects having no general in- terest. I desired that he would establish the Society upon a broader and more liberal basis-one more accordant with the spirit of the age for it is the property of the human mind per- petually to advance, and the successive changes we observe in the institutions of countries huve been, and are effected, in com- pliance to the demands of better defined, and more extensive intellectual views. I wished a share of the Society's patronage to be extended to Arts and Sciences, for it is a melancholy fact, that from its foundation to the present day, Dot one premium has been given for original compositions, or translations upon any- thing connected with art or scieuce. Men are possessed already ot certain notions of order, right, and justice, and he was not de- sired to intuse new views, nor endow with more refined concep- tions, the minds of Welshmen, for of these they are already pos- sessed, but. know not bow to use them. The necessity for im- I provement .s an idea with which their minds are familiarised, nor is there anything forbidding to (hem in the prospect of its betnx elfected and all be has to do is to concentrate and direct me ideas, which now inefficiently float upon the surface of society, into tuat channel which will most effectively ensure the desired object. He is acquainted with the means,and possesses the power. Let him exert himself,therefore,and posterity will bless his name. 1 am disposed to blame Mr. Price, since he bad the conlroul, for not having enquirer) into the characters of the decisions about to be given by bis colleagues. What I have said of Ab loto. ifhootd have been said by Caledfryn; what I have said of Caledfryn, should have been done by Ab Iolo; and that which I have said of Caledlryn, Ab Iolo, «nd the Secretary, should have been said by Ihe Rev. Thomas Price. He says, he never interrupted me." Did he not try? Who was that pitiful creature whose faculties were limited bv the pre- cincts ol It wooden lab (the English of Patera Lignea) ? Who Was that contemptible writer (P. L.) whose whole efforts could not attract my attention ? Let any man peruse those letters, which have appeared in the Guardian, signed Patera Lignea, and doubt, ir lie can, that I lie same style pervades those ofT, W., Esq.,in the Cambrian. Let any one contemplate the alternate pompous and confused expressions, which characterize a mind in the last stage of decay, straggling under a load of assumed importance, which it with difficulty sustains, and aiming at a real dignity, which it cannot reach, and say if these characteristics do not point T. W., bsq out as the writer of the four. I have no doobtupon my mind that he is the writer, and that in denying it, be has deli- berately uttered a falsehood. Men, who belie by example that whicb they by precept incul- cate, are the most pernicious members of society.

He said that I was "ignorant of Druidism." than which nothing could be truer.

Alary Davies examined by Mr. V.Williams —I am the daughter of Stephen Danes he fives in the parish of Fishguard. 1 re- member the 12th October last; I w:ts 'eft in the house by myself that morning. About ten or eleven o'clook in the morning, I left the house, to go to my master's, Mr. Harris, of Cefnb dre. I locked the door after lIle, and put the key in a hole, over the door Ihe windows were all fastened. 1 returned about six o'clock in the evening, and fourld the lock hanging hy Ilte staple of the door, with the key in il. I went into the house, and found a box, into which I used to put my missionary-money, on the table, with the cover broken, and a hammer by it. J saw the box when I left in the morning it was then nailed fast. Slbpheu Davies. lalher of the last ",ilness, corroborated her; evidence, and added, I missed two handkerchiefs, 7s. 6d. in money, and some stockings. I then vveoi in search of ihe pri- soner, and found him in Nancy Row's house; I then gave him into custody. I saw my handkerchiefs, the next morning, with the wife of James Jimes, of Danvchare I found the stockings In the h"use of the prisoner's stepmother. Elinor Davies, wife of the last witness, corroborated the testi- mony o! her husband, ai.d added, I missed a shawl. There were about 1Sd in the inissionarv-hox, all in copper. Mary Jenkins examined: I have known the prisoner since he was a child. I saw him, on the 12th Oct. last, going over a hedge into a field, close to Stephen Davies's house, in a direction towards the house; there was no path in the field; he said a good day to me. Blanch Rowtand examined — I alii the wife of David Rowland, the constable. On the f-lth my hoshand bad the prisoner in cus- tody, at our house. He look he prisoner oul of I lie boose, (0 goo before the Magistrates. After they left, I found 1"0 handker- chiefs behind the settle, near which the prisoner was sitting. David Rowland produced the handkerchiefs, which his wife gave him, and added:—On the night of the 12th, I nsked the prisoner what he had done witii tho money. He said he had 7s. 2jd. then about IJim. I searched hilll, when he was going 10 bed, and found half-a-crowu in each sleeve. When I was taking him to gaol, he desired me 10 keep his k nire, and a paper I had taken from him, as those were his property. Ann Row deposed, that the prisoner oír,:red her the handker- chief, now produced, for sale. Her servant was present, and oflered him Gd. for it, which he refused. The property being identified, the Learned Judge summed up, and Ihejury immediately returned a verdict of Guilty. A certificate of a conviction of the prisoner at (he Pembroke- shire Epiphany Quarter Sessions, 1S40, for felony, was then put la, and Ihe gaoler swore to his idenli: v. Sentence, Ten years' transportation. John liees was tried for feloniously stealing a parchment writing, relating to the title of Jane Wiiliatns to certain property, io the parish of Robesioo Walban. Mr. Hall-opened the case, aod oalled Jane Williams, who swore HS follows: -1 am a single woninn, living at Milford, in this county. The prisoner is mv brolher-iri-law he lives at Cott's Farm. in the parish of Hobeslon Walhan. The deed now pro- duced was deposited wilh me by the prisoner, about the year Ib39. I then lent him 2¡)/. He told me I might keep the deed until be would pay me. There was no written memorandum made at the time. About twelve months ago there was a sale at prisoner s farm, onder distress. I bought some goods there, and left him have them, and he was either to pay me for them, or to return then). There was nothing said at that time relative to the deed. In September Inst, the prisoner applied to me, 10 see the deed. I thmi brought it to Mr. Reuben Fry's. I saw thedefendant there. I told Mr. Fry, that I left the deed with him, in order that the prisoner might take any extract from it he choose I said be was not to let him have it. I then went out, and left Mr. Fry and the prisoner in the room. In the afternoon of that day, in conse- quence of something Mr. Fiy told lIIe, I went in search of pri- soner, and found him at the" Salulation." in this town. I asked him for the deed. He said he would not give it, because I was so cross. I afterwards saw the deed with the policeman, be!ore the Magistrates. I have never been paid the 201.. [The deed was now put in, and read by the officer; it was dated the 22d Oct.. ihj!), and purported to be an assignment 01 a lease of the Cott's Farm. from Martha Rees 10 the prisoner]. Mrs. W iiliams further examined :—This is the deed which the pi isouer deposited with me. Cross-examined by Mr. Hill:—.My name is Jane Corry Wil- hams. After a few further questions, Mr. Hill objected that the in- dicIl/lent did not oontain the proper name of the prosecutrix. The Cou't said the objeelioll was fatal. Prisonerdischarged.—The prosecutrix's costs were not allowed. JVIII. Davies WHS indicted for stabbing Lewi, Davies, on the 21st of August last. The first count charged the prisoner with slabbing, &c., wilh intent to murder; the other with intent to maim, disfigure, disable, or to do some grievous bodily harm. Mr. V. W iiliams stated the case to the jury, in which he said he abandoned the charge in the first count. Lewis Davies examined by lHr. V. Williams .-1 was in August last a servant in husbandry, to Mr. Child, of Begelly. On Son- day, the 2lst August, in the evening. I went to Chapel. After I came oaf, I went to a barn, belonging to Abraham Nash. I saw Rebecca Nash, his daughter, and the prisoner there. RebecCa asked me what I wanted ? I said I wanted to conrt her. She said she did not want me. The prisoner said, if he was in her place, he would send me from there. I said he could not do II. We then began to fighi we bolh struck at each other the same time. The next blow he gave me was with a knife. I felt my- self stabbed in Ihe belly the waistband ot mv Irowsers was cut tbrough my shirt was cut through, also. He then gave me a second slab, in my hip joint. He then told 10010 take care, or I should have it next time in the g— s. Abraham Nash then came out, and we both left. I then tried to go home, hntcould not walK far, because the blood was flowing. I got to the house of Richard Brigg, and was forced to remain there a week. 1\lr. Noole, the surgeon, attended me there Examined by Mr. N. Carne:—I never tried to court this girl before. I did not know that the prisoner was courting her before that time. There were twopers.ons. who went wilh me to the harn Thomas Morgan was poe pf them. Morgan and I had changed clothes before we went. I did not do it in order to dis- guixemysetf. I did not tell Morgan that I wanted to go there to give the prisoner a good hiding. I had my own coat back that night. Rebecca asked me to go awal, as Mhe-woald have nothing to say to me. The prisoner and RelJeoca len the barn together, and went into the haggard. I did not go behind him, and give him a hhiw which knocked him down. I did not give him the lirst blow his blow tuuched tirsl. I knocked him three times, but he did not fall once. I hafl bul olle Itlow after I had given him the three blows. I felt the cut. I did not tell Morgan to hit him. Re-examined :—Morgan and Griffiths were outside the hedge, about eight yards ofr. By the Conrt :-11 was not light enough for me to see a knife. Tho^. G.eorge Noole examined :-1 11.1" a surgeon, living "t Be- gelly.' I was sent for to attend the last witness, on the ^lst of August last, about eight in the evening. 1 examined him, and found a wound on the right side of his belly, and another on his tefthip. I dressed the wounds,-and attended him for three or four davs. I considered him in danger at tirst. I should think the 1V01lllds were occasioned by blows struck witIJ ,iolenoe. A knife might have caused thein. Jeremiah Phillips, a constable living at Begelly, who took the prisoner into custody, produced a knife which he found on pri- soner, and also the shirt of the prosecutor, which appeared to be very much seined with blood. Mr. N Carile addressed the jury for the prisoner, contending that there was no evidence lo prove that the prisoner had a knife or any other weapon i" his hand at the litne the qnarrel took place, and urging the probability thai, during the aftrsji while the prosecutor and prisoner were struggling together on the ground, Ihe former received the wounds from so"1* instrument lying abont the haggard. He called Rebecca Nash, who said, I am the daughter of Abraham Nash. I know the prisoner he courted me in August last. On the 2I*t 01 that month, the prisoner and I were in my father barn. Lewis Davie* came there. I asked him what he wanted. He said he wanted nothing. [ then told him to go awaJ. He said lie would not. I came out of the barn, and the prisoner with me; we went towards my father's house. Lewis Davies came after ns; he struck the prisoner three times, and said he would kill him he struck him down the first blow. The prisoner then got up and said let me atone, I don t WlIoIIO fight. The second blow knocked him down also, and also the third they afterwards both struggled on the ground. This took place in the gardou. Morgan letped in over the hedge when Davies struck the prisoner the first time. 1 screamed out, and beard Lewill Davies nomphinlhat he had heell cut. Cross-examined by Mr. Williams:—The* barn is near mv father's house. I called out, and D.ivies told me to stand hack or I should have the same. I went home immediately after. The prosecutor came theie bleeding. When Davies first struck my lover, I was surprised he did not return the blow he did not defeu4 himrelf although struck three limes. He WHS afraid of him. Tiios. Stokes, Esq., J. M. Child. Esq., and Mr. Jos. Calleli, severally gave the prisoner an excellent character. The Judge then summed up the cilse; and alter the jury had deliberated a short time. they returned a verdict of Guilty, with « sliong recommendation to mercy, 011 account of hill previous good chirHcter, and the great provocation he had leceived.—.

After that, we went to see if we clluld "RVe anything from die wreck. When we gOI down to the vessel, we found a ladder placed against her side. We went on board with some of Mr. Keynaston's men. I went into the cabin, and f'»itnd Ihe mate's chest plundered. It was about elfeven o'clock at night when we uot aboard. We got some coils of rope atbore thev were missing the next morning. I also missed some hluckll and a xheet ofcoppar. On the Monday following, I missed some lIIore rope frum Ih" rocks. Cross examined by Mr. N.Carne :—The night of the 13th, was verv stormy we had greal. dtdicaity in saving our lives. I saw John Webb, one of tin prisoner's on the shore that night he assi-led ill S'lvittg our lives. As soon as tbe vessel "!fuck, we look ihe boat, and rowed towards shore, and threw a rope to the men IIn Ille beach, by whirh thev hauled up We did not Cnl away any of the riguiivr until «e went aboard again between ten and «leven o'clock.

When we left the vessel the first tilll" there were IW,) or three feel uf waler tin her.

The men who assisted me were ver\ active in saving the tiiinsts from the wreck We put the things we saved un the rocks "1llhe prisoners were assisting in saving the thions. Several other witnesses were examined, whose evidence went to prove that the prisoners were hard at work, as«i ting the Cap- lain in saving the wreck, and placing il olllhe rocks. Mr. N.

He sub- mitted from the ev idence, lhat cverv bit 01 rope that was brought from the shi|» bv the prisoners was placed on the rocks, in the very 8pOt where the nther property was put by thtt captain and crew and he called tJeorge Rowe.the elder, and John Edwards, who swore iligl they totv the prisoner George Rowe, pick up two) blocks oil the -bore so ate davs after the wreck had happened.

Thonum JJtnorll and David Howell, were charged (together wilh other persons to the jurors unknown), with having, ou the 13'h February last, at the pirish of Lan:p-let' Vuificy, in the ooii.iiy of 1)e.llbrok.. unlawfully, riotoasly, and tnuialtiiouslr 1I!\lIrnIulea together, 10 the disturbance of the public peace, a»d being so assembled together, did then and 11.rEl unlawfully, and with force, demolish and pal! dawn ibe dwelling-house of oat William Llee., there situate. They were farther charged with demolishing and polling down the office of the said William Rees, and in other counts, with beginning 10 demolish, &c. Mr. Chilton and Mr. Nicholl were Counsel for the Crotvu, and Mr. Evans (by special permission), and Mr. Williams, for the ptisoncrs. The following were the Jurv sworn Timings Gibbon, Broadway, Henry Adams, Bramble, 1 liotrus Noot, Robeston, William Lewis, Heuna, Thomas Roberts, J,,|in fimiiit, Thomas Leonard. St. Florence, Richard Hood, John Davies, Lawrenny, i J„|)n Beviinn, Levi Phillips, Keynaslon. Tboinas "Evans. Taukardlon. MR Chilton addressed the Jury KS follows —The prisoners at the bar wetedigged with riotousiv and lumultuouslv asesmbling, with other persons, mid unlawfully demolishing the dwelling- house of William Roes. The question yon will have to try is, whether the twn prisoners, or either of Ihem, were actintr in the outrage which took place at Trevauzhan, o the 13th of February Jast. It will surprise you, that persons in their station in lire should be so engaged, It is it, dutv to advert to that of which you are n it ignorant, namely, that there has prevailed in this and the adjoining county, what I may term a war of extermination against (he toll. sates 011 the roads. I regret the circumstance most unfeigned'y, and 1 am sure tnv learned friend will join with me in Ihe wish, that the res))t of this trial may have the effect of explaining to the misguided people, that thev are in thrt wrong. Roads in litis country are almost necessaries of life, and they can- not be kept in repair, unless funds are raised for the purpose. Lawless men may just as well invade vour farms, because you cannot give away the produce of them, as that people should de- stroy toll-gates because the keepers of them the tolls which are lawfully demanded for passing over the roads. '1 ite ev idenee by which I shall can upon vou to come to the conclusion that the prisoners did lake v part in the outrage is the follotving :— Y\ m. liees will tell oil, that he is I he keeper of the Trei aughau gates he has been tenant of the tolls for one or two years he will teff you that within a short time Ihe gates have been three lintes taken awa< by mobs. This so much alarmed him. lhat lie became afraid to sleep in the toll-house. He used to go about ten 0 clock in the evening to sleep in the house of liees Isaacs, a little distance ofl. and subsequently he slept in the house of David 1 liomas. He will tell you that, on the night of the 13th of February last, he had not been long at Thomas's house, before 'iee* Isaacs came to inform him ihu} Rebecca was at the gates." He immediately ran towards the gates, and went into a garden belonging lo the cottage of Keturah Howell, about 100 yards from t fie in. This place commanded a full view of the toll-house and gates. but il was not near enough lo enable hiin to distinguish the features of any ot the parlies engaged in the work ol de- struction. He reckoned from IGlo 20 persons there, and heard the discharge ol lire arms. He saw them employed in carrying pieces of wootl, the fragments ol the toll house and gates, across a field near the foil-house, towards Ihe river Tail', for the purpose of throwing them into the river. After the house had been pulled down, the mob rail across this field as if alarmed, Rnd dispeised. Rees then went towards the toll-house, and in ten minutes after he saw the prisoner, Thomas Howell, coming oil, in company with two other persons whom he did not know, across the field I hat e spoken of, in adire; tion from the river. Thomas Howeifs then addressed him as Colll)\\ S It is hard on you to lose vour house, you had better come w.tb me to get a damper." After (hat Thonus Howells went on in ihe direction of the bridge, which would lead him to Y\ hitiand. The next witness will call before you is, Lewis Griffiths lie will t• -11 you that between eight and nine, on the night of the 13th of February, he went lo bed at the Golden Lion, iu Whiilatid. There were two persons sleeping willi him. Some time afterwards he was awakened bv a voice cai/mgoul, "Rebecca is come." Thomas Howell, one of I ue prisoners, was at the bedside, and gave him some beer. Howell then fett the room, and Griliiihs hastily dressed himself, and went out alter him ha overtook Howell and David Thomas, the son of the landlord of the Golden Lion, who were going towards ihe toll-house. When they got to Trevaugban bridge,be saw rem- nants of the gates being carried to the river, and he saw the mob busily engaged in pulling down the house. At this time, a man approached them with a gun, and snapped the cap on it. Thomas Howell then cried out Hurrah, Rebecca." The man took off his fiat, asked for money, and Thomas Howell look some out of his pocket, and pal it into the hal. The man then wen! oil', aud Howell, Gnutths, and Thomas followed him towards the gates when they got there, Ihe mob were at work pulling the house down. Griliiihs will leil you that David tfowell, the other pri- soner, was 011 the pine end of the bouse, at work wiih a hatchet, which he once dropped, and Lewis Griliiihs picked it up, and gave it back to him. The man who had the gun then came up. and said to Thomas Howells, you must take this while I work and Howell with the gun kept back the people, who were pushing towards the house. Shortly after. Howell returned the Run to the man, and took up a shovel, with which he began to pull down the house. After a short lime, a cry was heard, they are com- ing. when the mob all ran towards the river. They then re- turned, and called at Benjamin Watt's house, where they had some beer; after which, Lewis Grifhihs returned to the Golden Lion, and went to bed. These gentlemen are the facts against the prisoners, io addition to which I shulf call before you the Rev. John Evans, who committed the prisoners on this charge, r?'° you that, when he asked the prisoner, Thomas owel.J if Jje |la(j anything to say, ha answered, that he was not at the Golden Lion »t all on the night in question, and he called a man nstned .Walter John to prove this but when John wos ex- aminetl, he was obliged to admit that both he and Thomas Howell lad been at the Golden Lion lhat night, and that lie left Howell there. Gentlemen, I humbly submit, that if I am able to bring these proofs before you, it will be your painful duty to find the pusoners guilty if you have any doubt on the subject. of course jou w ill, under the direction of his Lordship, give the prisoners 0I\ -r °' ,e,n !e benefit of lhat doubt. William Rees examined by Mr. N. Carne:—I live st Tre- vauglian, in the parish of Lampeter- Velfrey, in this count v. I am the tenant ot the Trevaugban loll gales. 1 occupied the toll- house oil to the lime of its destruction. The house is situated between the two gates. I rent the tolls ander the Trustees of the Whifland Trust. There was an attack on the house and g;.les Oil the night of the 16th January. The gates have been destroyed three times. I slepl in the house sill the 16th January, and not ailer. Between that time and the 13tli February, the house Was repaired. I was there in the evening of the 13th, and left about ten o'clock. The reason why I did not sleep there after the 16th January was, because the windows were not glazed. I went to David Thomas s huu.se lo sleep on the lHth February his house is about 300 yards from the gates I went to bed about twelve 0 clock, and had not been there long before Rees Isaacs came, and told me that were breaking the gates. I then got all. and went through the fields to Keturah Howe'ls's garden. This was about 80 yards from the toll-house. I could ee the toll honse clearly from where I stood. I heard a greatlloille, and saw them tearing down the gates. I saw abeut twenty persons (here. I did not go near, because I was afraid. They were llirowint- stones at the people who peeped out. I saw the mob carrying the toll bar and the timber from the house towards the river, which ran along-side of a field at the b-ick of Martha Phillips's honse. Whilst I wu looking at tire mob, the. all ran awav at once; some ran through the road, and others across the field towards the river. After they left, I went towards the toll-house. 1 found the roor destroyed, also the front wall the joists of the floor were down at one end. I know the prisoner, Tholl, Howell. I have kuowu him for three or four years. I saw him that night Ilhootten minutes after the toll-house had been pulled down lie came over the hedge from the meadow behind Martha Phillips s bouse. There were two or three persons with hiin. I don't know Whether Lewis Griliiihs was there. Thonins Howell said to me, "Rebecca has done bad work to pall down the house." I said, ".Yea, and lam very cold." Thomas Howell said, You had better have a damper of ale." This was in Welsh. Thomas Howell then went towards Trevaugban bridge, and one of the men went with him. Cross-examined by Mr. Evans :-] knew Thomas Howell verv well, and be knew me. as the toll-keeper. I was standing near tne toll li use when he spoke to me. This gate had been ereeied between forty and fifty years. ^Lewis Griffiths examined by Mr. Chilton T live at Pant-v- park Mill, and am a miller. I was at Ihe Golden Lion, Whitland, 011 the liilli February. I went to bed there between nine and ten oclock. I slept ou the ground floor. There were Iwo o her men who slept wiih ine they went to bed before me. I think one of thein was Griffith Grilfiths, of Llanddarog. I went to Whitland to sell pigs. I went asleep, autl was awakened by Thos. Howell he attempted to drencit me with beer. About this time, a man catne in, and said, Rebecca is come." I did not know Thomas Howell before, lie and John Thomas then went out, and the pig drovers and I got up and followed. I overtook Thomas Howell • nt! John Thomas. The lalter is the son of the landlord of the Golden Lion. Thomas Howell said, We had better go down near the toll-honse." I said, better nnt." We went across a field over a brook towsrds Trevaugban bridge. While standing on the bridge, a man came up with a gun in his hand. I saw the the flash IIf a percusssion cap. Thomas Howell then cried nut, Hurrah, Btcca." The man ihen begged some money of Thos. Howell, and he gave him some the man seemed lo grumble at it, when Howell gave him some more. The man then asked me lor fit mey. I said, I had none for him. The man then went back, and Howell asked if he should oome oil, when the man gave it turn wilh tha gun for him lo come. We then went on to the toll- hoose. When I got there, I saw the prisoner, David Howell, on the pine end of the toll house he had a hatchet in bis hand, whicb he dropped I picked it up, and gave il to hiin. There were fiom sixteen to twenty engaged. Wli.-n wegot there,Thos, Howell took the gon iroui the man who carried it, Hiiii elie man took up a shovel and began tearing the house. A little while after, the man said, II I must have the gun, and voit must work," Thomas Howell then return.,(i the gun, and took the shovel, and began 10 tear down the house: An alarm was then given thai somebody was coming. The people then ran across a field towards the river. Thomas Howell, David Thomas, and I, went with them. After a time we came hack again across the field; the other people went olY iii a dill'ereiil direction. When we returned, Thomas Howell spoke lo a person who I think was the gate- keeper tliey spoke in Welsh. We then crossed the bridge to Watts's house, and had some heer. I left Howell and Thomas there, and returned to the Golden Lion. There were two of the men who had petticoats iv. and somelhing-about their heads. Cross-examined by Mr. liyans :—This was in the middle or the night. All the people ran out of tne Golden Lion when the cry came that 1, Becca was r,ome." I am not a daughter of Beoca, I went there to see what was going on. The gate is about a quarter of a mile from the Gold on Lion I wax close to Thomas Howell all the time, except when he had the gun. English was spoken when they were tearing down the house. The man with the gun spoke to Howell in English; he sai l, "I want some money, Howell." That was the first time I knew Howell's name. I went to Whitland r"ir on Monday, the pig fair was on Tuesday. I stopped there four days. I heard of the reward of loot. oil Friday. I did nnt hear about it on Tuesday morning. I mentioned IIbonl Un..ell on Friday before f heard of the rew.ard. I staid at Whitland four davsto find out more about Rebecca. I li-ad riever Seen Thos. Howell before that night. I had seen David Howell --if the Monday. I had beer in me when I went to bed. I was not drunk. I saw Tholl. Howell at Whitiand the night after the toll-house was destroyed, and had s une quarrel with him. I wanted to find out Rebecca because I thought it was all unlawful thing. Rev. John Evans I am a Magistrate for this ooontt. The prisoners were committed by me of this charge. I asked Thos. Howell if he had anything to sa" after cautioning him not to say MMtthittg that might injure himself. He said he had not been at the Golden Lion that nilChl. that Walter John had gone in to light h's pipe, and came out, and acnontpanied Howt ll to Llwvndrissr gate. Walter John was examined on behalf of the prisoner. Howell said to him, you know you came with me to Llwtndrissy gite. Waller hesi ated for a short time, and said he would speak the truth. Examined by Mr. Evans :—This was not taken down in wriiing Waller John exainiued bv Mr. N Ciriie :-Tliis witness proved that the prisoner, Thomas Howell, had, on the night of the 13th, "ccomptnied bun from St. Clears to the Golden Lion, where John letl him and went home. John Thomas, landlord of the Golden Lion, wait also called to prove that Thomas Howell was in his house, when the cry name that Becca had arrived. Mr. Evans then addressed the jury for the prisoners in a most able !ilpeedl. in Ibe course of which he sirongiv animadverted on the testimony of Lewis Griliiihs. He pointed out the improba- bilities of Itis storv, and submitted that Griffiths had selected the prisoner, Tlio. Ho well, « his victim, in order lo gain the reward of 100/ and to get bis revenge oil him, for the qtimi-rel tha) took place between them on the night after ihe destruction of- the gates. Htdid not deny lhat the prisoner, Thos. Howetl, was present, bul-be contended that he was there only it the character a spectator the not had cotnuieooed before he had arrived, and it W¡. xhcAi.. 1)\ ihe evidence, of W .))(:< John. that Thos. Howell had been at St. Clears all dav, and therefore could not bave been aware of the attack. As far as concerned the prisoner, David Hnwrn, the only evidence that touched him was that given by Lewis GrilliLbli, and bo (Mr. Evans) confidently submitted that the jury could not, on the nngopported testimony of a drflhken c"nvict either of the prisoners of the charge. His Lordship shortly sommed op, leaving it to the jory to say. whether, on the evidence adduced, ihey coald find the prisoners. or either of them gnilty. If they had any doubt, of course the prisoners were entitled 10 the benefit of it. 'j'e 'Ulr- !,n^ '"hunt ten minales returned with a verdict ol <« Not Gaifty" for both prisoners. As soon as the audience heard ilie verdict, they signified their a!^ol it by a load and long cheer, which with great oiincrutV WHS silenced.
