THE IfMtt. NEWPORT, FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 18S4. I IRISH CONCESSIONS." WE printed in our last issue a statement said to have been ma4e by Thomas Casey, an Irish informer,atfto the Maamtrasna massacres. Rarely do we meet with such startling evidence of the foulest depravity. In the cases of such fellows who can determine which of the contradictory Btoriea they tell—if either—is true ? When men thus steeped in villany affect to be moved < by the reproaches ci* conscience, and avow a • i desire to confess" from religious motives, it were well that no man's life or reputation should be at their mercy, and that no heed should be given to their testimony withoub irresistible supplementary proof. Before 8C- J ceptinpf the statement of Casey, it would be well to study the hideous light in *whioh he is now willing to stand before the public. He declares himself to have lied foully in his declares himself to have lied foully in his sworn evidence at the trial of the Maamtrasna murderers. If he and Philbin are now to be believed, they perjured themselves grossly when they knew that men's li"swere at stake, and, with the <tain of murder upon them, implicated innocent men to save their own neoks. Further, the person against whoni I their latest allegations are made is now ic & critical position and may we not assume that they have knowledge of Mr. Bolton's difficul- | ties, and of the greater chance of acceptance which any charges against hin now have ? It is in the highest degree suspicions that Casey should, .{just at this particular time, be | troubled with conscientious scruples as to his evidence at the trials. Can informers whose < rare skill in the art of lying caused the execa- tion of innocent men, complain if their startling 1 41 confessions" be received with misgiving ? i It-would be a matter of serious import, if a criminal who, for conscience sake, forsooth! accuses himself of the darkest atrocities, were allowed to set the law in motion so as to implicate other persons, and thereby add to tke dumber of the victims who, if his word insy be taken, have already been sacrificed to his: perjury. It were better far that the matter should rest as it is than that a hideous suspi- cion should be fastened upon amy man through the Unsupported testimony of a fellow who Bays he allowed himself to be coaxed into gwearing. away the life of an innocent fellow- countryman. So, we are happy to find, thinks the Attorney-General, who, having thoroughly investigated the case, advises the Lord Lieutenant that there is no ground for a public inquiry.
THE CORPORATION LICENCES.
THE CORPORATION LICENCES. ATTEMPTS have been made to show that the majority of the Newport Town Council who last week voted for the suppression of the liquor licences that recent alterations had placed at the dispoeal of the governing body, took an unwarrantable step. They had ne right, it Is alleged, to forego the opportunity of placaaag three or four hundred .pounds in the coffers of the borough by a sale of these licences, seeing that they were actIng as custo- dians ofpnbhc money. In other words, they had no right to consider the consequences likely to arise from their becoming vendors of public-house liceiices-it Was no part of their business to inqaire 'whet&e,. the upshot would be good or bad—whether they would be pro- moting the social and ^oral Well-being of the town, or indirectly con ribatiQg to tte Jicen_ tiousness, misery, °r'^e ^vhich are com- monly associated with the pnbhc saie of intoxi- cating drinks. Tbe do of the objectors is, that because there for y existed a siven number of licences in the quarter affected the Town Council had no right to mqaire whether that number was inadequate or e^cessiVe. thev should, it is alleged, have treated the licences simply as marketable commodities, and soi,j them for the best prices they could get, irre- spectave of any scruple as to whether thev might ba advancing or retarding the pabl £ well. It is scarcely necessary to do more than state this contention to show 1 s a aciousness Do men who argue thus fail see .a there is a sphere for the exercise of conscience on the side against which they array themselves ? If it be wrong, as they say, to sacrifice public money, is it not also wrong to establish cen res of temptation and immorality when there is no pretext for saying that such houses are nequired for public convenience or refresh- ment? If this be granted, then we say it shows a sufficient ground for dealing with the question upon its merits, and upon considera- tions immeasurably superior to the narrow pretext that to refuse to strengthen the flood of vice and misery already fed by an excessive number of streams, is to make an unauthorised sacrifice of public money. It is scarcely possi- ble to conceive any application of public funds by a corporate body to which some crotchety clique would not object, if their protest could avail anything. But surely no case could arise in which it would be more fitting that the pleas of such objectors should be set aside, than the one before us. Happily a majority of the Council took this view, and thus saved the borough from a standing reproach.
- THE ST, JOHN THE BAPTIST…
THE ST, JOHN THE BAPTIST MISSION, NEWPORT. We last week printed a letter addressed by the Bishop of Llandaff to a Cardiff contemporary, to correct certain mis-statements which had obtained currency as to the reasons for the forthcoming closing of this Mission. The affairs of the Mission have been watched with much interest in this town and neighbourhood since the Vicar of St. Woolos happily gave notice to the promoters of it that be could not permit it to be continued in his parish under the then existing conditions. That the subject should possess a special attraction for that vigilant and energetic- if not always judicious debater of Church questions, the Re*- J°hn Griffith (Rector of Merthyr), will surprise no one. As is usual, he has shown himself eager for the fray, and within the last few days has defined his position in the arena in a long letter to the Western Mail. Readers acquainted with the Rector's pugnacious proclivities will not be surprised fc0 find that he occasionally hits straight from the shoulder—» kind of fighting which, whatever may be said as to its effectiveness, is, of course, unacceptable to persons who look upon religious questions in the light in which they regard a personal difference or a bargain viz., as matters for compromise. The Rector is not ftlways careful that the force he employs shall be tb&t of logic as distinguished from that of pre- possession; still, there can be no mistake as to the side upon which he means to stand in the controvert. flis out spokenness is sometimes refreshing, even though he now and then exposes himself to the suspi- cion of needlessly meeting a WOund jQ before us there are some passages that have little or a0 relation to the question at issue-while there are re that ought to be written with no less plains., .a.vQQ tba0 the Rector^ We append a few Writing of the St. John s Mission, Mr. Griffith savs • There, if anywhere Clewer and Canon G^ \'Z t 11 play and carte blanche to do wW bad fS Romish way, and they did it Ilked ™ Em «s c!e"er -a 'the sisters, "the brothers," "th* i priests," great Ugh priest" of a\ "!? j nil their own wav.

An application for the Industrial School Band to play at a friendly society gathering at Ponthir was refused, the parish not being in the Union. A circular respecting the emigration of pauper Roman Catholic children to Canada was laid on the table, as also were some docu- ments relating to Dr. Bernardo's homes, whereupon the Chairman remarked that the Newport Union possessed a home equal if not superior to Dr. Bernardo's. This was all the business. BRECON AND MERTHYR RAILWAY. — The accounts of this Company show a balance for the half- year ending 30th June sufficient, after paying all charges and interest on the A" Debenture Stock, to pay interest in cash at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum on the B" Stock, as against 2 per cent. in the corresponding half-year of 1883.

The boy also sustained some I bruizes. FUNERAL OF A TELEGRAPH MESSENGER.—The funeral of the telegraph boy, Charles Try, who was drowned in the Old Dock last week, took place at the I Cemetery en Sunday afternoon. The cortege, which left the residence of the deceased's parents at three o'clock, was preceded by about 50 of the elder scholars from St. Woolos Boys' Sunday school, which school the boy had attended.

Dr. VacheU, of Cardiff, was immediately sent for. He has prescribed complete rest for a time, and recommends afterwards a change of air. He believes his patient has over- taxed his strength lately by work. His lordship is j partially confined, to bed, but is progressing very favour- ably. AN AFFRAY WITH POACHERS AT RUPERBA CASTLE. OJl Friday night the gamekeepers at Ruperra Castle came across four men engaged in poaching. One of them was captured, bat the three others made good their escape. They, however, left behind them four large nets, S10 yards long,, and a rabbit recently killed. The man arrested is, ap. parently, a navvy, and states that he was recently employed at the Severn TunneL The delinquent was brought before the Caerpbilly Bench of magistrates on Monday, and sentenced to one mouth's hard la- bour. VOIUNTESR SHAM FIGHT. — On Saturday a large number of volunteers, belonging to the First Mon. Rifle Volunteer Corps, took part in some inte- resting manoeuvres. The B C and E Companies were supposed to be an enemy coming by way of Caer- 1 philly, across Machen mountain, to Risca while the D G and H Companies were supposed to be some men sent forward to intercept them. The latter found the former on Machen mountain, and the officer in com- ocand of the attacking force arranged matters in such I a way that that body attacked the defending force front and; flank, so that the latter must have been defeated. After the sham fight the volunteers went through out-post duty, and returned home soon after nine o'clock. The Newport, Machen, and Pontymister Companies took part in the manoeuvres. GOSPEL TEMPERANCE UNION. — The weekly meeting on Saturday evening was held in the open-air near the crossing at the bottom of Commercial-road. The speakers were the Revs. R. Edgcombe and C. Ayliffe, who delivered telling addresses. At the close of the speaking several persons took the pledge of total abstinence and donned the blue ribbon. BREWSTER SESSIONS.—The annual licensing meeting for the Newport Petty Sesriocal division is fixed for Thursday the 4th September- The borough licensing sessions will be held on the following day. THE NATIONAL EISTEDDFOD.-Her Majesty the queen has graciously consented to be the patconess of the National Eisteddfod of Wales, to be held at Liverpool this autumn. LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAtLWAY COM- P ANY.-At the half-yearly meeting on Saturday, the chairman of the Company (Mr Moon), stated that in the namber of first-class passengers, carried, there had been a falling off estimated at 50,000. The number of second-class passengera remained at about 200JOoo, while the third-class had increased 500,000. That, however, .meant an increase of only jE9,000 in the receipts. ENGLSSH CHURCH UNION.—On Tuesday the annual meeting of the local branch was held in con- nection with St. John's Mission Church. The Rev. F. Beck, Roath, preached a sermon in the morning, and after luncheon the meeting of members was held, Mr. F. J. Mitchell in the chair. Thanks were passed to Mr Beck for his sermon. An address wae.delivered by I the Rev. E. T. Williams, of Caldicot, and a committee was appointed to arrange for lectures in promotion of the objects of the Union. I FRIENDLY SOCIETY DINNER.-—The members of the Sir George Elliot" and Rose of Jam,, lodges of Shepherds dined together .on Tuesday evening at the King's Arms inn, Commercial-roach The ohair was occupied by Mr A. E. Southali. The after dinner pro- ceedings were of the usual character. In responding to the toast of the Newport district, Mr W. Brown, one of the secretaries, mentioned that the net gain in membership since the establishment of the district in 1880 had been 50 financial and nine honorary mem- bers the total number of financial members was now 121. The reserve fund for sick and funeral purposes amounted to X529 12s lid. which was equal to C4 7s 6d per member. MISSIONS TO SEAMEN SOCIETY.—The Rev R. H. Boyd, one of the society s chaplains, occupied the pulpit at St. Mark's church on Sunday morning. In his sermon the rev. gentlemen ably set before the con- gregation the claims of the seamen upon their sym. pathy and aid in the matter of religious ministration. CHRISTCHURCH LOCAL BOARD. — The fort- nightly meeting, held at Maindee Board Schools on Tuesday evening, was attended by Messrs J. Harris (in the chair), F. S. Dauncey, D. Happerfield, E. Hill, G. Morgan and J. Wilkes. Attention being called to the unsatisfactory state of the footpaths in Fair Oak- terrace and neighbourhood, a discussion ensued as to who was liable for their repair. The matter was ad. journed in order to find out the conditions on which the plans for the houses were sanctioned. It was re- solved, subject to the regulations of the Board being complied with, to pass plans of four houses in Archi- bald-street. Pians of eight cottages in Victoria- avenue were adopted on the understanding that the system o ^drainage, would be modified according to the recommendations of the surveyor. Cheques having iSMT CUmmt wpwww, the meeting ter- DISCOVERY OF A BABY'S BODY.—The remains 1 of a female infant were found by a lamplighter in the I path leading from Clytha-square to Stow-hill early on j Tuesday morning. The body was nude, and the child k had apparently been stillborn or died in a few hours after birth. The police took charge of the remains, and the coroner's enquiry was opened on Wednesday, when an adjournment for a week was decided on, to allow of a post-mortem examination being made. THE BOROUGH MEMBER AND THE HOUSE OF LORDS. -The Globe, referring to a recent speech by the member for the Monmouthshire boroughs, says:- Mr. Carbutt, M.P., has invented an infallible method of overcoming the Constitutional majority of the House of Peers. If they reject the Franchise Bill again, Let the House of Commons pass a short Bill to enact that the Upper House should have the power of returning a Bill to the Commons once only.' This would be a grand idea. The House of Lords would, of course, pass a short Bill for their own political effacement, with the greatest alacrity, to please Mr. Carbutt, M.P." COMMERCIAL ROAD BIBLE CHRISTIAN CHAPEL. -On Sunday the Rev. R. Edgcombe preached fare well sermons at the above chapel, he being about to leave Newport for Swansea. Mr. Edgcombe was pastor of the Bible Christian denomination here for four years and under his ministry the cause prospered greatly. He has been instrumental in building a new chapel costing £2,000 only half of which remains unpaid, and during his pastorate the number of members grew from 80 to 170. The rev. gentleman identified himself with most good works" carried on in the town, being particularly active as a teetotal advocate, and he will be missed. A meeting to bid him farewell was held on Wednesday evening, and he was presented with a purse of money on behalf of the church and congregation. THE POLICE OUTING.-The borough police force had their annual outing this week. They paid a visit to the lighthouse as usual, one half going down on Tuesday and the others the day after. A SWINDLER CAUGHT AT NEWPORT.—A young fellow giving the name of Bob Arthur Bruce was apprehended by Detective Inspector Jones on Tues- day, for obtaining money and jewellery by false pretences at Neath and Port Talbot. He seems to have turned up in Neath about three weeks ago, wearing fashionable attire of the masher style, and though content to reside at a coffee tavern, announced himself as the son of Colonel Bruce. Aided by a good stock of assurance, the "masher" speedily made a pretty large circle of acquaintances, and some of these he "bled" by specious stories about the non-receipt of remittances, and so forth. He also ran up a bill at the coffee tavern, besides bor- rowing the barmaid's watch under the pretence that his own was being cleaned. One day towards the close of last week the adventurer suddenly dis- appeared, when his dupes awoke to the fact that they had been swindled. From Neath Mr. Bruce" proceeded to Penarth, and then to Newport. Here he took rsp his abode at the lreaegar Arms noiei, but patronised other hostelries, including the Ship and Pilot, where he succeeded in borrowing a bicycle of the landlord's eldest son. On Tuesday, by which time he was under the observation of the police, Mr. (Brace was negotiating the sale of the bicycle at the Prince of Wales Ian, Cardiff-road, when Detective Jones entered and apprehended him. The day following, the prisoner was brought before the bnroagh magistrates, and transferred to the custody of an officer from Neath. He will be charged at the police court there next Monday with obtaining money and medicine, value 27s., from Mr. John Stephens, surgeon, and other offences of a somewhat similar Nature. MUSIC IN PAKE-SQUARE.—We are glad to announce that the Thursday evening band perfor- mances in Park-square have been resumed. Yester. day the Third Mon.

MARRSAGE OF MR. F. A. Goss. — The marriage took place, on Wednesday, at Edgbaston parish dmrch, Birmingham, of Mr. Frederick Alfred Goss, of Newport, second son of Oliver Goss, ESfl., and Mres 'Emmie Ridgway Bale, younger daughter of T. Sanders 'Bale, Esq., -of Edgbaston (late of New- castle, Staffordshire). The Rev. J. Canning, B„A,, officiated, and assembled in the church was a large gathering- of friends, comprising several of the near relatives of the bride and bridegroom. The bride was given away by her father; the bridegroom was attended by his brother, Mr. E. Goss,at best man, Tsa happy pair were greeted on leaving the ciwwch with the customary salute of rice, -slippers, etc., and drove to the house of the "bride's parents, where fa party of friends and relatives afterwards assembled for the wedding breakfast. The .presents were,numerous and oestly. ROBEERY OF JEWELLERY.—This morning. before Mr H. Pfaiflips and other EM-gistrates, Philip foenisuf, a sailor, was charged with stealing a gold watch and chaim, bpooch, diamond ring, and other jewellery, the property of James Cameron, Ruperra- street.

Six months1 hard labour. CASUALTIES.—A labourer named Richard Thomas, employeditt the new Town Hall, works, had his hand smashed on Monday. Me was taken to the infirmary, where the house-surgeon amputated two fingers. John Howes, a seaman, was admitted to the infirmary the saine day suffering from injuries to the head caused by a winch handle. On Wednesday a boy named Wilknott partially swallowed a halfpenny. The infirnirry surgeon took the youngster in hand with a view to dislodge the coin, and in this he was successful. There were also treated at the infirmary on Wednesday a foreign sailor and a workman living at Cwmbran named Pritchard. The former slipped off a ladder and broke his leg and the latter was suffering from barns caused by his falling on some hot iron whilst in a fit. On Wednesday evening, as a party was returning from-the Lighthouse, the horse shied and overthrew the trap. The occupants were a good deal-abaken, but not seriously hurt. CRICKET.—A challenge cup tie match was played between the Newport and Cardiff clubs on the ground of the former last Saturday. The elevens played,ene innings each, Cardiff winning by 132 runs. The scores were Cardiff, 251 Newport, 119.

BLAENAVON. NARBOW ESCAPE or THREE PERSONS EROM DROWN- ING,-()n Sunday afternoon some boys went to Ball's Pond to bathe, when one got into deep water and dis. appeared. A man named Young jumped in to his rescue, but the drowning lad held on to him so tightly that it was feared both would be drowned. A second man jumped in, and with much difficulty all reached the bank amid much excitement, a large number of persons having been attracted to the spot by the occurrence.

CHEPSTOW
CHEPSTOW BOARD OF GUARDIANS.—At the weekly meeting on Saturday Mr. J. J. Taylor, vice-chairman, presiding, toe clerk reported that he had caused a prosecution to be instituted against Mrs. Harris, Llangwm, near Chepstow, to compel her to pay towards the support of her husband, who is confined as a pauper luoatic in the County Asylum, Abergavenny. The case came on for hearing on Monday last, when the Rev. W. Price, vicar, with whom Mrs. Harris is housekeeper, attended and produced a certificate, stating that Mrs. Harris was too ill to attend, and the case was ad- journed for a fortnight. Mr. J. PowelJ, guardian for the parish, produced a letter from the patient, which at his request was read by the clerk. In this letter Harris stated, among other things, that he was quite well, and able to work for his living, and that it was a shame that he should thus be confined for the purpose of a certain party, whilst the ratepayers had to pay for his maintenance. He hoped that Mr. Powell would try to have him released. A Guardian sug- gested writing to the Commissioners in Lunacy, as it was hard to keep the man a prisoner if he was well. The matter was deferred until after the next justices' meeting,
--MARRIAGE OF MR. THOMAS CORDES.
MARRIAGE OF MR. THOMAS CORDES. A nuptial event possessing more than ordinarv interest for this neighbourhood was celebrated yester- day at St. Michael's Church, Chester Square, London; we refer to the marriage of our popular and much respected neighbour, Thomas Cordes, Esq., of Bryn Glas, with Margaret Agnes, elder daughter of Admiral of the Fleet Sir Alexander Milae, G.C.B., and Lady Milne. As a citizen possessing a large stake in one of our most important local industries,- as a county gentleman who has for some years taken a leading part in the public affairs of the district.-as one who, not long since, stood in the honourable posi- tion of representative in Parliament of the Monmouth Boroughs, and still aspires to that distinction,—and as having discharged the duties and responsibilities pertaining to these several stations with singular intelligence and fidelity,—Mr. Cordes has come to be recognised among us as a man eminently worthy of esteem. Being thus regarded, the interesting event in his life marked by yesterday's ceremony naturally awakens pleasurable attention among his friends and I neighbours, and this is shown, not merely by party adherents, but by very many who, though not of his school of political thought, yet appreciate the honourable traits of character to which we have alluded. The marriage took place under the most favourable conditions as to weather, &c., the officiating clergy being the Rev. Canon Fleming, vicar, assisted by the Rev. Henry Seymour, rector of Holme Pierrepont, near Nottingham. The ceremony was fixed for half- past eleven, but the invited guests began to arrive as early as eleven. The central aisle and the approaches to the altar had been covered with crimson cloth for the occasion. Soon after eleven the strains of nuptial music burst forth from the organ, and the organist (Dr. G. C. Verrinder) continued at intervals to play appropriate marches from Stainer, Gounod, and Handel. The bridegroom was the first of the bridal party to arrive on the scene. He was accompanied by his cousin, Mr. Lucas Ewebank, a Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge, who acted as best man. Imme- diately after, and at short intervals, the bridesmaids made their appearance, and took their stations at the western entrance to the church. They were six in number-Miss Grace Alice Milne, sister of the bride; Miss Susan Milne Home, Miss Bertha Cochran, and Miss Home Purvis, cousins of the bride; Miss Ethel Cordes, niece of the bride- groom and Miss Madeline Seymour. The ladies were dressed in costumes of white satin brochcj, trimmed with cream-coloured lace, with white bonnets ornamented with red poppies and corn. Each wore a pearl anchor brooch, bearing the crest of the C bridegroom, with monograms in brilliants, the gift of f Mr. Cordes. All carried magnificent bouquets of red and white blossoms. While the bridesmaids we* waiting, the church continued to fill, and when t^e clock denoted half-past eleven, the interi 0j the building was almost crowded with a ^^iUiant assemblage of the friends of the two farlilies and i others. Some of the costumes worn b „ the ladies were extremely fine, and elicited generp admiration At the hour arranged for the ceremony to commence the roll of carriage wheels was hep^r<j and presently the bride entered the church, learning oD the arm of her father. Immediately there, came a fresh peal of music from the organ, and a perceptible flutter of expectation ran through the brilliant throng massed in the chancel. Then the bride and her father advanced to the head of the attendant bridesmaids, those young ladies closed up the rear in the orthodox two-and-two formation, and the bride's procession started on its progress up the aisle. The bride, who was somewhat pale, was, of course, the cynosure of the occasion. She was attired in an elegant dress 'of white brocade and satin, with garniture of white I ostrich and marabout feathers. Her head-dress con. sisted of a tulle veil, fastened with diamond stars, the gift of her father, while she also wore a magniS- I cent riviere of diamonds, a present from the bride- groom. The procession having traversed the length ct the church and ascended the altar steps, the bridegroom, attended by his best man, took up a position on the right of the bride, and the ceremony commenced. The seene presented, as the bridal party knelt grouped before the altar, was wonderfully eflec- tive a more charming tout ensemble it would be difficult to imagine. The effect was heightened when, after a. momentary pause, music, soft and swelling, threw its gentle spell over the scene. The service was very simple. Originally it had been intended to have a full choral service, but this idea was abandoned at the last moment, and both the chant and the nuptial hymn, "The voice that breathed o'er Eden were dispensed with. The only duty assigned to the choir was to join in chanting the responses. The service over, Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" was flayed on the organ, and the bride and bridegroom, followed by Sir Alexander Milne and others, made their way to the vestry, to sign the register. Mean- while the bridesmaids remained in the church. On the return of the happy pair, the bridal procession was re-formed, and made its way down the flower- strewn aisle to the western porch, Mr. and Mrs. Cordes on all sides receiving the warm congratulations of friends who pressed around them. Shortly after- wards the wedding party drove off amid a shower of rice from the crowd at the church door. Amongst those who were invited to the wedding were, though many were unable to attend owing to their absence from town Marquess and Marchioness of Normanby, Lady Kin- ?SSD f P?urcy> Mr and Miss Milne Home, Field-Marshal Sir Patrick, Hon.

The newly- married pair left early in the afternoon on their way to Scotland, where the honeymoon is to be spent. The presents were both numerous and costly, onmbering over 200. Amongst those presented to Mr Cordes was a finely-ornamented mail phaeton whip, with a suitable iascription, from the cab drivers at Newport. In Newport the auspicious event was regarded with warm interest. Some half dozen enthusiastic admirers of Mr Cordes went to London to see the wedding, while others hung out flags from their dwellings in order to show their good feeling towards the popular squire of Bryn Glas. At the Conservative Association rooms and the Westgate hotel there was a profuse dis- play of colours, the bells of St Woollos church rang merry peals for a number of hours, and at the Dos Works the firing of carmn was kept up throughout the day. At Bryn G!as the servants partook of a sumptuous luncheon, a arje weed ogcake,supplied by Mr A. W. Bland, being on the table. All who had ever been in service at the mansion received invitations and about 20 persons sat down. The office staff of the Dos Works had a very pleasent outing, taking train to Chepstow and thence driving through th Forest o' Dean to T ntsrn Abbey, where an exeeIle. dinner was provided at the B^autort Hotel, over wh' at presided Mr Thomas Horton, the ice-chair being Jtch cupied by Mr Francis Long.
