PETTY SESSIONS.—On Tuesday, George Redrobe, Shrewsbury, was charged with stealing two watchcs. He was connected with a theatrical company who were performing in Denbigh, aud took the watches from the lodging-house of Sarah Gittins, Denbigh. He was sent to gaol for two months—John Smith, a tramp, was sent to gaol, in default of paying a fine, for being drunk and behaving like a madman in Park-street. THE WEATHER.—The weather, which during last week was exceedingly fine for this season of the year, has now changed, and hailstones, snow, and bitterly cold winds are experienced for miles around. Miis HANNAN'9 COMPANY.-Thia excellent dramatic company, under the management of Mrs Hannan, of Wrexham, paid a visit to this town last Tuesday. In consequence no doubt cf the inclemency of the weather, the attendance was but limited, and Major Mainwaritig, under whose patronage the entertainment was held, was also for the tiame reason absent. However, in compli- ance with numerous influential requests, Mrs Hannan gve another ent jtainment on Wednes- day night, when a comparatively full hcuse was secured. The pieces played were "Nan, the good for nothing," and Lady Audley's Secret," Mrs Hannan in the last piece personating the principal part to perfection. The entertainment was a complete success, and we hope that Mis Hannan will comply with the numerous solicita- tions, and pay the town a visit in a short time again. CONCEPT at THE ASYLUM.—A most socceseful concert was held last Monday night at the Lunatic Asylum, and judging from the satisfied and pleased looks of the patients and the visitors the worthy endeavours of the performers were not made in vain.

We understand that this is the first of a series of entertainments proposed to be given at the Asylum. REVIVAL MEETINGS.—The. Rev W. Roberts, of Abergela, still continues to hold revival meetings in thip town, and we are glad to see that his labours are not in vain. For the last three weeks the tev gentleman has been ministering in the Capel Mawr, Swan-lane, where about 30 persons joined the society.
