HOPS. STO'UVY VESTRY MEETING —A vestry meeting was held at Hope parish church on Monday, and the proceedings were of a rather stormy character In the n'st place Mr William Jones, accused the sexton of neglect of duty. The churchyard vvas, he said, alwa, s in a bad state, brfc it was now worse than ev?r, as the stones lay in hesps throughout the yard. In the next plce, he remarket that a servant was paid to ..l-*an out 'he church, but that work was not done properly. —Mr Wilbraham objected to the way in which the pexton had get into his position. He had been placed in the post, but no one could tell how.—Mr S. Sxy-r and Mr George Francis were th-n appointed ?.s trie churchward ens. —Mr}^Wilbra- ham asked that the accounts should be pro- ducecl.—Mr Edwin Jones, one of the retiring churchwardens, said there were no accounts to be submitted to the meeting.—Mr Wilbraham: There ought to be. Oo this day twelvemonths there were no°books also. The question of accounts was then waived, aud we were to have another meeting. I ask the chairman (the R v Mr Rowlands, re tor) di-I he call thst meeting? The vestry clerk, at the request of the chairman, read a minute, which stated that such a meeting had been held.—Mr Wilbraham: Nothing of the sort. There was no meeting of that kind here last year.—The Chair- man: Trcere is the minute.—Mr Wilb-aham: That was put in afterwards.—A Parishioner: I think Mr Wilbraham's insinuations are not what they oug-ht to be.—Mr Wilbraham: I will speak the truth -The Chairman You must be careful cos to the charge you make. Do you mean to say this entry was not made when the meeting took place?—Mr Wilbraham: There ought to have been another meeting. —The Chairman: Do you taeon say this minute was forced ?—Mr Wilbra- ham I do not mean that, but I want to know where the charity money has gone—The rector said they had not met to discuss the charity accounts.- Mr Wilbraham: It is the church- wardens, business, and before they go out of office they ought to leave the books fair and square for their successors.—The Chairman said they were accountable to the Charity Commissioners for the way the ch <rities were dispensed, and returns were sent in and published in the Magazine.—Mr Wilbraham But all the parishioners do not get the Ma<,nzinc—The Chairman They might do it if they choose.—A discussion arose as to the repair ot a wall arouaa tne cnurcayara, ana jar uawley observed that it was the rector's business to effect the repairs as long as the churchyard was open.- The Chairman quoted Prideaux to show that Mr Cawley's statement was incorrect.—Mr Cawley: You have deceived us long enough with your reading, and it h uot fair that you should do so. -Here the chairman, amidst confusion, declared the meeting at an end, and left the vestry.
LLANIDLOES.
LLANIDLOES. CHURCH: RESTORATION.—The parish church of Llanidloes, one of the most venerable edifices of the diocese of Bangor, was on Tuesday re-opened, after a restoration from the designs of Mr G, E, Street. The Bishop of Bangor preached. The chaiacter oi the restoration, which has been carried out at an estimated cost of JE3000, will be gatherod from the following statement issued by the vicar (the Rev T. Williams, M.A ), who has taken a most active interest in the movement:- The work includes the removal of the western gallery, and thus the opening out of the church to its full length, repairing nave, roof, walls and windows, renovating pillars and arches re- flooriug and re-seating throughout, raising north aisle and re-roofing the same, building choir stalls at east end, and forming chancel by* means of scree s across nave and aisle. Not to mention the present internal arrangement of the church than which anything more thoroughly unsuited to devotion could scarcely be conceived, the walls, windows, and root are so much out of repair as to render attendance at church positively dangerous to many during the winter months. In a word, the real necessity of restoration will at once be seen from the fact that nothing of importance has been lone to the church for just seventy years. In 1810 the present old high pewe were constructed, half facing east and half west, turned towards the pulpit, which stands in the middle of the church abutting the south wall. These things considered, it seemed a duty imperative upon the vicar and churchwardens to take the earliest possible steps for a restoration. Seeing that the population of the parish, num- bering abont 5000, consists for the most part of miners and factory operatives, with only one or two resident landowners, they venture most earnestly to appeal to the sympathy and to solicit the support of the non-resident landlords, of ecclesiologists, and of all who are interested in the work of the Church in Wales. Ecclesiologists, especially those more nearly connected with the county, will, we are sure, need no argument to induce them to help 011 the restoration of a church possessed of so great an antiquarian interest. Founded by St Idloes in the sixth or early in the seventh century, it now can boast an additional charm as guardian of the Cwmh^C^Ut re^C3 the once famous Abbey of

HOLYHEAD. DEATH OF MR ^.JOHN PETERS.—After a long illness, which he bera with much patience, the above esteemed gentleman departed on Thursday, the 6th inst., at the age of 58. Mr Peters was a member of the St. Oybi Loige of Freemasons, and had always been characteristic for his genial spirit and charitable dispositions. The deceased gentleman had risen through perseverance to a high pc.s tioa in the Provincial Grand Lodge or North Waies and^Shropshire. He was also one of the fi-st promoters of the Children's Sunday Ragged School at Mill Bank, in that town, and gave a substantial support towards its erection, and he continued to evince mueh interest in that institution to the last. His funeral was a masonic one, and was largely attended by the brethren of Holyhead as well as from Bangor, Carnarvon, Llangefni, and Amlwch lodges. The funeral ceremony was performed by the Rev O.

Hughes,seconded by Mr W. D. Jones, it was resolved that as soon as the necessary preliminary work had been got through a special meeting should be called for the purpose of passing the rate. A letter from the secretary of the Local Government Bxud was read, complaining that the report lately sent them by Dr E. Evans, medical officer of health lor the county of Anglesey, was incomplete as regarded some important matters connected with the sanitary condition of Holyhead, and on the motion of Mr W. D. Jones, seconded by Mr E. P, Griffith, it was resolved to notify Dr Evans oi the complaiut which had been received, and to request hira to make a formal inspection of the town, and forward a full report tf) the Local Government Board, The clerk read a letter which he had received from Mr Robert Williams (one of the unsuccessful candidates in the la&t election), immediately after the result of the voting had been declared, asking that his bort might be permitted, on bi,. behalf, to scrutinize the voting papers. The permission asked for had been given by Mr Hugh Hughef, the returning officer. — Mr Richard Hughes said that six year3 ago he made a similar appiication, but permission was refused until after* the board had held a meeting,and he wascoivinced II that that decision was in a curdance with the pro vision of the act.—Mr ilugh Hughes explained that us he had never been r-turning officer before. he was entirely in she hands of Mr J. Lloyd Griffith and his clerk for advice and in- struction as to the performance of his duties. He further stated that according to his own reading of the section of the act bearing upon this point he was of the opinion that he was empowered to act as he had done in the matter. After much dis- cussion the opinion of the majority of the mem- bers present was found to be in favour of the con- struction put upon this section of the act by Mr R Hughes Mr H. Hughes was, however, fully exonerated from all intention to act illegally. Mr H. Edwards said that in consequence of certain rumours which were in circulation in the town, he now gave nctice that at the n' xt sitting of the board he would move that all the newly elected members should fully satisfy the board as to their being fully qualified, before taking their seat3 at the board. A letter from Captain Hicks, Newry- street, was read, in which he complained that hav- ing had occasion to call the attention of the sur- veyor to the condition of the drain leading from his house to the main drain, he (the surveyor) had used most insulting language to him. Mr had used most insulting language to him. Mr Evans denied this and stated that he had examined the drain referred to more than once and found that it was perfectly clean and free, and that the nuisance complained of rose from accumulation of filth at the sink on Captain Hick's premises.—Mr R Hughes drew the attention ot the board to the necessity now that the summer was approaching, of taking some steps towards making the recrea- tion ground attractive. The chairman stated that he had written for price-lists of iron seats, &c.,and he hoped to be able to lay them before the board at their next sitting. The board then adjourned I until the 17th inst.

Complainant aaid that on the night in question she was in bed asleep and be- tween midnight and 1 a.m she was awakened by by loud knocking at the door, and on getting up and asking who was there and what was wanted a voice, which she did not recognize, replied that it was a stranger who had lost the train for New borough. She did not opea the'door,and^the knoeking was continued,and the person at.tiiedoor threatened that if it was not opened he would burst it open and kill her. She lighted a lamp, and as soon as she had done so the door was burst open, and a man came in. His face was p&le, and he pulled his cap over the upper part of it, and put his hands over the lower part. Complainant ran out of the house, and, aiousing some of her neighbours, returned to the house, but the man had gone.-In cross-examination, Mr Roberts elicited that complainant had on a previous occasion dreamed that she was being killed. She also admitted that she had at first said the man who had broken into her house was very like a man named John Williams, Ceryg- bach, and afterwards told a neighbour Mrs Lloyd, Treflae, that the man was like John Thomas, because he had a pale face.
