DIONMÖUTBSIIIRE. MONMOUTH BOROUGH COURT. The Court for the trial of Causes, which by a very ancient Charter was granted to this Borough, and which has (alien into disuse for nearly half a century, has been recently restored, and two actions were tried on Monday last. There has been some difference of opinion among the inhabitants as to the benefits likely to result to the town from the re-establishmeut of this Court. The long-experienced want of some cheaper and more expediiious mode of recovering their debts than by a resort to the processes of the superior Courts, has led many of the tradesmen to hope that that want will no longer exist • whilst, on the other hand, the manifest disadvantages of a small local juiisdiction, and the unfitness of such tribunals for the present state of commercial affairs, create doubts of its bene- ficial tendency. The experiment, however, is now likely to be fairly tried, and we sincerely wish it may succeed. Subjoined is a condensed report of the two actions decided on Monday. Keddle v H'atkins. This action was brought for the recovery of 51. 8s. for twelve bushels of malt de- livered by plaintiff to defendant in May last. It appeared tiom the evidence that the defendant, im- mediately upon receiving the malt used a part of it., notwithstanding be was then told it was of inferior quality. The defence principally relied on was in shewing that the goods were really so very bad as to be of no value. A sample of malt of very in- different quality Was produced but the witness who produced it, not haviii"- taken it from the bulk himself, there was no positive proof of its identity. p Two witnesses were called on the part of the plain- tiff to prove that laro-e quantities of the same mall had been sent to them" which had proved good and for which they had paid the plaintiff- Mr. Owen, attorney for the defendant, was about to address the jury when Mr. Ives, the plaintiff's attorney, submitted to the court that there was no defence to the action, inasmuch as the defendant was aware of the quality of the goods when he received them, and had used a part of them that he had never rescinded the contract by giving "oticeto the plaintiff, although he had sufficient opportunity to have done so. The following cases were then cited by Mr. Ives :-Okell v. Smith, 1 Starkie, 107 Ross on Con- racts p. 336 Grimaldi v. White, 4 Espinasse, p. 95 Bluett v. Osborne, 1 Starkie, p. 381. The Court agree- ing in opinion with Mr. Ives, directed the jury to find a verdict for the plaintiff, for the amount sought to be recovered. Parry v. Vigors.- This was an action of trover, brought to recover 5s. 9J. being the value of three feeding pens (otherwise old tea-chests) delivered by plaintiff to defendant, and which the latter had re- fused to give up. Mr. Owen, for the plaintiff, called witnesses to prove that the articles were the property of the plaintiff, and that they were delivered to the defendant, and that a demand had been made to the defendant to de- liver up the pens, which he abruptly refused, saying he would be d- d if he would. Mr. Griffiths, for defendant, cross-examined plain- tiff's witnesses, and endeavoured to prove a partner- ship between the belligerents, but failed in doing so. A receipt was then put in, to shew that, at the set- tlement of a former action (brought by the present plaintiff against the now deieudaut) the defendant asked the piaintifi if he had any other demaud upon him, which was answered in the negative. Upon cross-examination of defendant's witnesses, it turned out that the settlement of an item of 55. 9J. included in that account was lor money lent, and not in pay- ment for the pens now in ques ion. The Town Clerk briotjy summed up, and a verdict was given for plai sit lil-i)a niatres, Eighteen pence. The Jury expressed their disapprobation of such actions being brought, and wished they could fine each party forty shillings. MONMOUTH.—The long disputed question, respect- ing the liability of the Borough to the payment of the o-eneral Rate made on the county, has again been revived and we understand a vestry meeting has been called by the parish officers, for the purpose of taking the sense of the parish on the subject. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT The Court for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors, was held at Monmouth on Thursday week, before J. G. Harris, Esq.—John Patisen Smith, ot Monmouth, stone mason, was de- clared to be entitled to the benefit of the act, and ordered to be discharged.—William Morgan, of Llanthewy, to .the county of Monmouth, shoe- maker and publican, was opposed on behalf of the detaining creditor, Mr John Corles, of Ross, tanner. Nothing, however, arose from the cross-examination to affect'the insolvent; and after being asked a few questions by the Court, he was declared to be en- titled to the benefit of the act, and ordered to be forthwith discharged. The learned Commissioner congratulated the county ot Monmouth on the re- duction in the number of its insolvent debtors. COMMITMENTS.—A man named James Roberts was on the 2d inst. committed by the Rev. W. Powell to the county gaol at Monmouth, charged with stealing a cow, the property of James Yarworth, of Clvtha, gentleman and, on the same day, Hannah Price, convicted of being an idle and disorderly person, was committed by the same magistrate, to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three calendar months. This Roberts, and a rnau for sheep-stealing, who has been about a month in confinement, are as yet the only prisoners iu this aol for trial at th next assizes. The latter stands charged with stealing no less than 46 sheep, the property of a farmer at Newchurch in this county. It is reported that he took the sheep to Bristol, but not making a good salesman suspicion was excited, and the clerk of the inarlcets there had him apprehended and with the sheep conveyed back to Chepstow, when it was disovered to whom they be- longed, and the sheep were restored to their rightful owner, actually before he had missed them. ABERGAVENNY AND NEWPORT RAILWAY.—It is in contemplation to form, i" connexion with the prqpo- sed Cambrian Gloucester,and London Railway, a rail- way 22 miles'in length, to run from Aberg lVenuy vid Usk, to Newport. The survey has already been made byMr.Hodgkiss civil engineer; and the expense is ex- pected not to exceed one hundred thousand pounds. It i<» proposed to fix the rate ot tonnage at a half penny per mile per ton on iron and coal, and one penny per mile on all other goods. BAIL COURT KING'S BEVCH —Mr. Godson moved to admit to bail William Jones, committed in Den. bighshire on charge of manstuu^iUei. The tacts, as stated in the affidavits, were, that the person killed had been seen walking in Abergavenny, the prisoner following and abusing him. Jones struck the de. ceased who fell back on his head, and expired almost directly. Jones was taken tip, atid after examination before a magistrate, committed on a charge ot man- slaughter. The two sous of the deceased did not now object to Jones being admitted ..to hail Rule granted to admit the prisoner to bail. Evening Mail. CULTIVATION OF WELSH LITERATURE.. —A so- ciety ia ely formed at Abergavenny for the cultivation of the Welsh Language, held their first meeting at that town a few days ago, when the chair was filled by a highly respected Clergyman. The meeting was merely an initiatory one for the purpose of coucertlll measure? of public and more extensive operation but from the talent and great respectability of the gentle- men present, we anticipate great advantages from the formation oi the society. SEWP IKT—STATE OF TRADE.—The trade of Newport in the two principal articles of business, coal and iron, is in a most flourishing state. The coal owners and the ironmasters cannot execute the orders as fast as they come in. This, after the depressed state of the coal trade of Newport a few months ago, is most exhilarating intelligence. NEWPORT.—We extract the following from the Morning Herald of the 25th instant as a matter possessing some local interest. It relates to a suit in the Exchequer by Sir Charles Morgan, Bart, to establish his claim to tithe of Coppice wood. in the parish of Monythusloyne, in the county of Mon- mouth, instituted in consequence of the provisions of a recent act of Parliament, which required the pro- ceedings to be commenced by the 16th August last. The application was made on the part of John Hodder Moggridge, Esq. one of the defendants, who disputed the legality of the service of the subpoena before that day, and refused to enter his appearance, to enforce which an attachment was issued against him. Sittings in Equity before Lord Chief Baron Lyndhurst. Morgan v. Moggridge—Mr. Simkinson moved in this case to have an attachment issued against the defendant set aside on the ground of an irregularity in the service of the subpoena. The subpoena had neither been personally served nor left at the dwelling house of the defendant. It appeared from the affidavit of the clerk of the attorney for the plaintiff, that he gave the subpoena to the son of the defendant, whom he met at a short distance from the defendant's house. He contended that this was not sufficient, and that the subpoena ought to be served at the dwelling house. Lord Lyndhurst—This is substantially serving at the dwelling house; it was served on the son of the defendant, on the defendants premises, within his gate, and on a private road leading to the house, and this must be considered in every respect a sub- stantial service. It was not necessary to knock at the door and put the subpoena in it was quite sufficient for every purpose to serve'it as had been done in this instance, and on that ground the application must be refused with costs. -———— LAUNCH.-On the 12th inst. was launched from the building yard of Richard Watkins, Esq. at Chepstow, a very handsome ship of about 450 tons register, called the Bombay Packet. She is intended to sail from Cbepstow to Bombay, direct. CAPTURE OF A ROBBER --i family of the name of l}urrice) residing iu a retired cottage (an encroach- ment) in the woods at Great Diuham, near Chepstow, have long plundered the neighbouring farmers with impunity, and defied search warrants, and every other means of detection. The Rev. H. Berry in par- ticular has been a great sufferer by their depreda- tions. On the nio-ht of the 12th or morning of the loth instant, one of his barns was entered aud robbed of a quantity of wheat •, early iu the morning he re- ceived information of the event; he immediately despatched his bailiff. for a search warrant and took his station at the robber's house, with one of his men. In order to prevent the removal of any Stolen property, in executing the warrant they took William Burrice the younger into custody, (the father absconded ou the first alarm), and on searching the house they found five four-bushel bags of wheat the bags were princi- pally the property of the Rev. H. Berry a quantity of heat in the chaff, one sheaf of wheat, and a great deal of wool, as well as a bloody bag, which had the ap- pearance of having been used to carry the carcase of a sheep, and numerous indications of an extensive system of plunder. The following day the Rev. gentleman attended before the magistrates, when Wiliam Burrice the younger was remanded in order to give time for the appieheusion of his father, for which purpose constables were despatched into the hills, where it was thought he had secreted himself. However, on Thursday evening, the suspicions of Mr. Berry weie excited by a pauper, and he resolved to set out as soon as it was dark, attended by his bailiff and two labourers, for a lone house on Erlswood Common, a noted resort of thieves and poachers, and having by a little manoeuvre obtained admission for himself, Ue soyu Cuuti(I that the object of his search was there concealed; who, in fact, then made his appearance, armed with a formidable weapon, an im- plement of his trade, he being a carpenter but, upon signal given, Mr. B.'s attendants entered, and their prompt appearance put aside the intention of Burrice, if he had any, to use his weapon, and they made their capture, and conveyed their prisoner to Diuhain, for the night. The prisoners underwent a lengthened examination, on Saturday last and were fully COlli. mitted at Usk, by Colonel Lewis, to take their trial. The house of an associate poacher was searched, and some stolen property discovered. It happened singu- larly enough that while Mr. B. was engaged with the magistrates on the duy that he captured the elder Burrice, a young man was seen runningat fullspeed past his house, pursued by a great number of people, hoot- ing and hallooing '• Mop vliief, &c." The Rev. Lewis Williams, of Mathern was riding up to the house he immediately joined in the pursuit and captured the fugitive, who had it seems, escaped from custody, upon a charge of stealing the church plate ot Llausaw, when retaken he had a knife and lar^e stake iu his hand, and upon his person were found picklocks and keys. [We cannot but remark that the spirited exertions of the Rev. II. Berry, as above detailed, must be re- garded a signal triumph iu the neighbourhood; we understand from other sources that a gang of mis- creants of whom the prisoners were distinguished members, have for a long time past successfully carried on every species of robbery upon the farmers. This example canuot fail of having a most salutary effect. ]-Glouceter Chronicle.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE- LLANBLETHIAN HOUNDS.-Tiiese hounds, be- longing to H Eutwisle, Esq will meet at the New Forest, on Monday next; at the Aubrey Arms, on Wednesday; and at Golden Mile, on friday. A stag will be turnet^ out on Wednesday, and a good field and capital sport are anticipated. The HEREFORDSHIRE HOUNDS will meet Tuesday» >>># j)ec, 3 Perrystone. Friday. •••• 6 Tiberton Village. Tuesiiay. 10 Borriugton. At 10 o'clock each day. STEEPLE CIlACE.-On the 19th inst. two dash- ing races for a valuable silver cup and a snuff box, with sweepstakes added, took place near Gloucester, between the officers of the 8th Hussars. The dis- tance was three miles across the country, and weight 12 stone each. The line afforded some ditlicult leaps, calculated to try horse and rider. For the cup five horses started, and it was cleverly won by Major Hankey. The box was also won by the Major in the second race, three horses starting. One horse was staked and died soon after, and some of the riders in taking desperate leaps, experienced severe falls. A large concourse of persons assem- bled to witness the novel races. MOST EXTRAORDINARY RUN WITH THE PANTY- KKNDY Fox-H(IUNDS.-Oll the 14th instant, the Pantykendy Hounds drew till eleven o'clock without finding, when they threw off at Penyrallt, Trawscoed woodland immediately struck upon the drag, when a gallant dog fox broke cover, and led them over a fine open country to the Forge cover but the dogs pressed him so hard before he gained the large cover, that he was obliged to turn short to the right over Vole Tnrnp and Blaenigau, and crossing the turnpike- road near Conwil, was met by some people going to the fair, who gave the hounds a momentary check that enabled him to make his ground to Nantycastell woods, and from thence to Pena'ltavar, and over Travelpwll to Criguan Mountaiu, when the hounds again obliged him to turn about for Clynperveth a id Cvvmgiest-gorse cover, where he was tally'd in fitie style, and made back for Ciliiere, and crossed the river for his old kennel but the hounds soon made him quit his favourite fastness, and after making a circuit of a few miles in the attempt of eluding his pursuers, but being foiled, he once more boldly faccd the country for Sychbant and Penyrhiwlas woods, where he was ob'iged to quit, and make the best of his way for Esgolgoch, Nantycastell, Brynwith, Nant- yrolehon, and Peiiceire, and was run into, in fiue style, on Bryn Fold, aft; r a chase of at least 35 miles and (ive hours'hard hunting. He measured 4 feet 7} inches from the nose to the tip of the brush. All Eugli-h fox-hunter, who was out, declared that he never met with so severe a run in Eiglaud.-Car- marthen Journal.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE AND GUARDIAN. Cow bridge, 25th Nov., 1833. Mr. EDITOR,-The paragraph in last week's ('«»*- brian, commencing with "The lazy weather, &c. must, I think, have been indited in the fog, as it ap- pears that the writer of it could have seen but little of the sport at theCowbridge Hunt, or that he fancied he saw events which perhaps he wished, and has been somewhat unaccountably blind to some prominent features in the week's amusement, which he might have noticed and mentioned. In the first place, too much cannot be said of the urbanity and polite attention to all in the field, on the turf, at the dinner table, and in the ball room, of the, steward, Charles Morgan, Esq., of Ruperra, on whom (in the absence of his colleague, C. R. M. Talbot, Esq,) the whole duties of the stewardship devolved; his arrangements gave entire satislaction, and have made an impression which will not easily be eflaced in the county. The sport with the different packs throughout the week was excellent, two bagmen on Monday and Thursday took the shine out of most ot the nags, particularly on the latter day, when more than hr i\h-in riders took ™r,i;n<r hath than two or tnree nuei-> IUOK a cooling for themselves andjhorses in the famous Clemenstone brook but the best :thing of the week was lin" doubtedly a five and thirty minutes run with the Lanblethian harriers, (rather late in the day on Monday,) when these quick ones, with their merry comptroller on his old crop mare close at their sterns, led three or four of the fint flight strangers such a dance as they will not soon forget. The races afforded great amusement to a very numerous assemblage, and it it many years since the Old Stallion Down has been graced "with so much beauty and fashion, and the cheerful countenances of the yeomanry and lower classes, and the humour- rous excitement and good will evinced by all, were indexes of the excellent spirit which now so, happily exists between all parts of the community in this county. The races were generally well contested, but the hurdle race, for its novelty, was by far the most interesting to all the spectators. It was admirably ridden by Mr. Bradley, jun. Mr. Williams, and Mr. Townshend, who, on a very rash vag gave a beautiful specimen of cool horsemanship and had not his horse swerve and gone over the side hurdle at the second leap, by which, according to the rules, he was obliged to turn round and come back to leap over the front hurdle,there would have been much more work cut out for the winner, Mr. Bradley on "Rocket. After the races, between forty and fifty gontletnen. of the first distinction, in this and the neighbouring counties, sat down to a most excellent dinner at the Bear Inn, served up in Mrs. Ballard's first style, C. Morgan, Esq. in the Chair. The circulation of the bottle was quickened and enlivened by some very good speeches and several excellent songs, tilt about half-past 10 o'clock, when the party broke up to refresh for the sports of the next coming day." The ball on Thursday evening, under the patronage of Mrs. Colonel Morgan, was brilliant beyond prece- dent, with a very numerous assemblage of elegance and fashion from every part of the county, amongst whom were prominently conspicuous the parties from Landough Castle, Ruperra, Duffryn, St. Nicholas, Wenvoe, Courtyralla, St. Hilary, Llimblethian, Duffryn Neath, Clemenstone, Park, Glyn Leiros, Ga- balva, Llandaff, Laleston, &c. &e. The room was most tastefully decorated under the direction of the Lady Patroness, whose obliging attentions were un- remitting during the whole evening. The quadrille, waltz, and country dance were the order of the night, and kept up with the greatest spirit till nearly four o'clock, when the party separated, highly gratified with the past, and anticipating the pleasures of the next meeting, which is fixed for the last week of Nov. 1831, tinder the patronage of Mrs. Franklen, of Clemenstone, and the Stewardship ot Robert Jenner and Nash Vaughan, Esqrs. I am, Mr. Editor, Your Constant Reader, and A THISTLE WHIPPER.

THE LATE KAINS.— inere has been -during the present week a heavier foil of rain in this part of the country than is remembered by many eveli of the oldest inhabitants. The River Taff, between Pont- storehouse and the Iron Bridge at Merthyr, rose on Thursday last between ten in the morning and four in the afternoon nearly five feet. This rise of the river when we consider that the bed of it in that place is about 500 feet higher than at Cardiff, where it falls into the se^, is really astonishing.

MERTHYR POLICE. Before J. !3. BRUCE and W. THOMAS, Esqrs. Nov. 26.—Th )tnas Richards, Boar's Head, Beer- house, was fined 40s. for keeping his house open at eleven o'clock on the night of the 18th inst. Nov. 27 William Williams, collier, Win. Williams, and John Williams, miners, at Aberdare, were fined, the former 15s. and costs, and the two latter 5s. each and costs, for all assault on Henry Williams, at Heol- y-Velin, in the pai-ish of Aberdare, on Sunday the 24th instant. In default of payment, Wm. Williams, collier, was committed for one mouth, Win. Williams, miner, for three weeks, and John Williams, for a fort- night, to the House of Correction. Nov. 29 —John Jones of the Rose and Crown, Beer house, Heol-y-Vtlin, Aberdare, was fined 40s. for keeping his house open after ten o'clock on Sun- day night, the 24th inst. [We are grieved to observe a very great in- crease of drunkenness, and assaults consequent upon it. Besides the cases reported, there were above thirty persons this week (some of them with black eyes, brokcll teeth, clothes covered with blood, &c.) fined in the costs only. the magistrates finding thaj both sides were equally culpable. Most of these cases were the result of quarrels commenced in the innumerable Beer-houses with which Merthyr is now inflicted. This evil is incomparably greater since the passing of that act which has done and is doing, so much to demoralize and ruin the working classes. The poor workman, returning hot and thirsty from his labour, if he has the resolution to pass by one, is soon entrapped into auother he only escapes Scylla to fall into Charybdis.^o t

BLACK GAME IN WALES.—His Grace the Duke of Newcastle very lately received from Scotland several brace of black grouse, which have been turned out at Hafod. They were brought into Wales by ahighlander, and it is hoped the breed will be allowed to increase, that Cardiganshire may once more be stocked with so fine a description of game. -A lbion. THE GRAND FLINTSHIRE EISTEDDFOL). Au address, signed by a number of the Clergy, gentry, and tradesmen of Holywell and its neighbourhood, was formally presented on Thursday week, to the Hon. E M. LI ovd Mostyn, M P. soliciting him to act as president at the intended Grand Flintshire Eisteddfod, in 1835. We understand that the deputation appointed to present the addres-s, were most handsomely re- ceived; and that Mr. Mostyn immediately expressed his acquiescence. We also hear that the sum named as his contribution was in accordance with his well- known liberality, and worthy of the representative of the ancient house of Mostyn. A meeting of the com- mittee of management will be called in the course of next week, when the particulars will be announced to the members by the deputation, and immediate pub- licity be officially given to Mr. Mostyu's reply. BEAUMARIS EISTEDDFOD.—We are informed that the Committee who conducted the late Eisteddfod at Beaumaris have come to the resolution of printing the prize essays and poems brought forward on that occasion. We sincerely hope the publication will meet with every possible success from the lovers of literature in Cambria. If however the prize essays on agriculture were printed in a separate volume, and at the lowest remunerating price, a great benefit would arise to the agricultural interest, as works of the kind are much in request among the farmers in Wales, many of whom, from their ignorance of the English language, have no guide iu their agricultural operations, save their own experience and observation. —North Wales Chronicle. MILFORD.—The sloop Rose, Richardson, from Liverpool, bound to Syduey, with passengers, was blown ashore this morning in Hubberstone Pill in consequence of a heavy gale of wind Irom S.E. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—On Thursday night last week, during a heavy gale of wind frotn S.VV. a man named George Rixin, in the employ of Mr. Wm. n. I <nl« Ilrnwnprl in 0: Ijrown as pitoi, was utnonuua^'j u_" ntempi- ing to board a vessel aprroaching the entrance to this harbour. It is supposed that the boat in which he was at the time was too small to resist the violeuee of the sea, and consequently capsized. He has left a widow and five children to lament his untimely tate. SERIOUS ACCIDF.NT.-Weduesday RNORNIUO^a poor fellow named Stephen Morgan, carter, in the employ of Mr. Thoinas Beynon, of Haverfoi d«est, was thrown off the cart about midway between Milford and Haver- fordwest, in cousequeuce of the hordes taking fl ight, and unfortunately became in contact with the wheel, which broke his at-m and lell- His situation being soon discovered by some persons passing along, he was removed to the nearest house, and, surgical aid being procured, animation was restored; but we are sorry to say he still remains in a very precarious state. LIBEL ON THE CARMARTHEN MAGISTRATEs.-On Thursday week the judgineut of the Court of King's Bench was pronounced upon the printer of the Welsh- man newspaper for a libel ou the Mayor and Magis- trates of the borough of Carmarthen. It was alleged in an affidavit on behalf of the defendant, that he received the article from Mr. Palmer, the editor, who was also a dissenting minister, and who was passed over by the prosecutor Since then Mr. Palmer had removed from the borough, and the object which the prosecutor had in view was the suppression of the journal of which be the defendant was printer. Mr. Evans was heard in mitigation, and Sir J. Scarlett in aggravation. The latter learned gentlemam commented in strong terms, and in a strain of happy irony on the tone of the article charged as libellous, and trusted that the court would protect the magistracy of the county from such attacks as those contained in the libel under consideration. Mr. Justice Park, in pronouncing the judgment of the Court, said, although the entire of the conduct of the magistrates could not be defended, yet no neglect of theirs merited the severe strictures which were con- tained in the libel published by the defendant. It ap- peared now that the defendant was not the author of the libel, but it was too late now to say who was the author of it; that statement should be made when the criminal information was applied for. Consider- ill" all the circumstances of the case, the judgment of the court was, that the defendant he imprisoned five months, and at the termination of the imprisonment to be called upon to give security to keep the peace for three years, himself in lOOl. and two securities in 50Z. each. ROYAL BENEVOLENCE.—Mr. Ciiarles Wilson lately forwarded from here a petition to be laid before her Majesty, to the Kight Hon. the Earl of Denbigh her Lord Chamberlain, in favour of Alire L'^vles, a poor pensioner, residing in Lammas-street, and who i6 the mother of t welve children, all sons, On Monday last an answer was returned, by her Majesty's corn- n,and, fi-om John Barton, Esq., enclosing au 01 for 12Z.

DISINTERMENT.—The remains of Mrs. Hav- grave, the unfortunate lady who was drowned wah her family in the late wreck of the phvtbe,^cutter, have been disinterred from Aberystwyth Clurch- yard, and conveyed to Pwllheli by sea in the C yniera, to he laid in the same grave as her husband and chilùrelJ.-J bid PEMBROKESHIRE AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR THE MONTH OF NOVE)tBER.-Although the au- tumn has been rather wet, yet, upon the whole it was favourable to husbandry. The wheat was wed got in, aud looks healthy in the extreme. It IS now so mild that the country has more the appearance of spring than autumn the tields are qui'e gieen, and vegetaiion seeuis scarcely to have received a check. Pigs are low, but cattle fetch good prices. Good horses seil well this is generally the case at. al I seasons. Cora is nearly stationary, if anything, we should say it is rather ou the dcciine.-Ibld.

TU THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE AND GUARDIAN SIR,—In your paper of the 23d ult, I observed from one of your correspondents, called Memor, some ex- tempore stanzas called Englynion, which were composed by Edward Evan, David Nicholas, and Lewis Hopkins three, I believe, of the best Welsh Bards that Glamorganshire ever produced. I should consider it very desirable if Memor would be so kind as. to favour us with brief biographical sketches of their lives.—A correspondent wrote to one of the Welsh magazines, published monthly, inquiring if there was any person that could give some biogra- phical account of Khys Morgan, of Peneraiyntdd, and David Nicholas, of Aberpmtgwm and from that time to the pi-eseiit, I have not heard of any indivi- dual giving any account of the above persons. Rho imi wybod, Memor, Eu hanes wych a'u tyininor; Cei gennyf ddiolch, gyfaili hedd, Heb drosedd, am dy drysor. Peth gwych yajiwr yw cofion, o ddoiiiau'r hSn Brydyddion; Pa rhai a fuont yn ddiau Fel goleuaduu mawrion.

HENRY MORGAN, THE WELSH BUCCANEER. a TO THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE AND GUARDIAN. SIR,—I observe in the Penny Magazine ot Oct. 26 the following passage from the life and travels of William Dampier Many men of respectable lineage and education joined the association against the Spaniards in America; nor were they then con- sidered as robbers and sanguinary pirates. Peter of Dieppe, L'Olonnais, Le Basque, and Mansvelt, were among the most celebrated of the Buccaneer Cap- tains but their fame xcas eclipsed IIY a H/elchman, named. Henrzj Morgan, who, after many successes, about nine years before Dampier's expedition (1670; had crossed the Isthmus of Darien to the South Sea, and taken and plundered the rich city of Panama." Knowing that you have many contributors to your truly interesting Paper, well versed in the ancient history of their country, I should feel much gratified to obtain some record of this Henry Morgan. I am, Sir, your constant reader, Neath, Nov. 23, 1833. NlDENSIS.
