The Right Rev. Robert Bickersteth, Bishop of Ripon, died on Tuesday, in his 68th year. His lordship who was consecrated second Bishop of Ripon in 1857, for some time past had been in very feeble health. A fire broke out late on Wednesday night in one of the pits of the Wrexham and Acton Colliery, Rhosddu, Wrexham. A wall built up to localise the fire was blown down, and yesterday efforts were renewed for smothering the flames. Fortunately all the men were got out of the pit without injury. Many of our readers will be pleased to learn that in response to a memorial forwarded by Mr. Osborne Morgan, M.P., the Prime Minister has made a grant of zEI50 out of the Royal Bounty Fund to the fund which is being raised for the widow and children of the Rev. Dr. Hugh Jones, Principal of the Baptist College, Llang ollon.
ELECTION OF GUARDIANS.
ELECTION OF GUARDIANS. The result of the voting for the Guardians in the parishes of Holywell, Llanasa, and Newmarket, was ascertained on Wednesday evening, the return- ing officer (Mr. E. J. Davies) having been engaged during the day in examining the voting papers and counting up the votes. The returns were as follows: HOLYWELL. Four of the retiring guardians have been re- elected, the new guardian elected being Mr. Isaac Hughes, of Bedol. Mr. Owen Jones, Holywell 675 Mr. J. Kerfoot Evans, Holywell 625 Mr. Samuel Davies, Bagillt 606 11 Mr. Joseph Garner, Holywell. 591 Mr. Isaac Hughes, Bagillt 581 Rev. J. E. Jones, Bagillr 519 Mr. R. Baldwin, Greenfield. 372 Rev. D. Jones, Brynford 358 LLANASA. The two gentlemen first named in the subjoined list were elected. Mr. Enoch Lewis, Mostyn Quay 252 Mr. John Owens, Brynllystyn.. 202 Mr. John Brooks, Penyffordd. 172 Mr. Edwin Parry, Old Hall. 139 Mr. A. Parry, Meusyddgwynion 96 NEWMARKET. One guardian is required for this parish, and. the Rector of Newmarket was again elected. Rev. D. Williams, The Rectory.. G4 Mr. Ellis, Graig Arthur 12 [The foregoing appeared in our second edition of last week]. Considerable interest was manifested in Holywell and Llanasa parishes. In the former parish several of the candidates and their friends canvassed most energetically, but notwithstanding 376 blank voting papers were returned, and 143 were wrongly filled up. -The contest in Llanasa was the first of the kind that ever took place in that parish, and the novelty of the election caused much excitement. The bulk of the candidates and their supporters canvassed and worked with vigour. Mr. Alfred Parry alone we are told abstained from doing so, and his defeat is generally regretted, as after his experience of from 35 to 40 years as guardian, the Board will lose the services of a well-tried and experienced official. Seventy-two blank voting papers were returned, and 55 spoilt.-The contest at Newmarket apparently was a walk-over, as the figures will show. Their were 5 spoilt, and 29 blank papers in this parish.
-------.HOL YWELL.
HOL YWELL. THE SPRING ASSIZES. In the North Wales Division the sitting begins on the 22nd inst., at Carnarvon, and the judges go to Chester on the 25th.

Mr. Ignatius Williams, of the North Wales Circuit, has been appointed by the Lord Chancellor stipendiary magistrate of Pontypridd, in succession to Mr. Williams, appointed county court judge for Mid-Wales. J J e GOOD FRIDAY.—Beautiful weather prevailed on Good Friday, and to those who regarded the occasion more as a holiday than one of sacred associations, the opportunity of enjoying the day in out-door exercise was most favorable. FASHIONABLE MARRIAGES. The marriage of Captain A. E. Morgan, late 71st Highland Light Infantry, and Miss M. Ada Cross, took place at St Stephen's Church, Dulwich on Wednesday. A marriage will shortly take place between Mr. Cayley, eldest son of Sir G. A. Cayley, Bart., and Miss Stuart-Wortley. CHAPEL STREET CTIAPEL.-The annual preaching meeting at the Chapel-street Welsh Independent Chapel commenced on Thursday evening last, and was continued throughout Good Friday, the preachers being the Revs. J. Alun Roberts, B.D., Holyhead; R. Rowlands, Trefivs, and D. M. Jenkins, Liverpool. There were large congrega- tions at the several services, and the sermons delivered were eloquent and impressive. CHURCH SERVICES.—On Good Friday there was English service in tho parish church in the morning, and Welsh service in the evening, the preachers being the Rev. R. O. Williams, M.A. (vicar), and the Rev. E. Mayhew Jones, B.A. The offertory on Easter-Sunday was, as usual, given to the funds of the Ladies' District Visiting Society. A special service was also held in the parish church on Monday morning. The Duchess of Westminster has presented Madame Marie Rozo with a bracelet inlaid with pearls and diamonds in commemoration of a recent visit which the distinguished and charming lady paid to Eaton Hall. The Duke and Duchess of Westminster with a fashionable company attended Chester Theatre during Madame Marie Roze's engagement, and subsequently Colonel Mapleson and his wife were guests at the hall for a few days. PEN'DREF CHAPEL.—The usual Easter preaching meeting at Pen'dref Chapel commenced on Sunday and was continued throughout Monday, the special preachers on the occasion being the Revs. Ishmael Evans, Rhyl; Hugh Hughes, Llangollen, and David Young, Cardiff (chairman of the South Wales District Meeting). The congregations, as is usual at these meetings, were very large especially on Easter-Monday and eloquent sermons were delivered by the eminent ministers. BALL.—On Easter Monday evening, a ball was given in the new Assembly-hall, by the members of the Battalion Band of the Flintshire and Carnar- vonshire Rifle Volunteers, the reunion having been arranged by the bandsmen for the purpose of rais- ing funds for the purchase of a presentation cornet for Bandmaster Edward Jones, who has for many years been the efficient leader of the band, and whose thorough musical abilities arc well-known. There was a good attendance, and dancing was kept up with vigour for some hours to the sweet music of the band. THE HOLY WEEK SERVICES AT ST. DAVID'S, PANTASAPII, were on the same lines as in former years. The Tencbne services were rendered on the afternoons of Wednesday, Thursday and Good Friday. On Thursday, High Mass was sung by the Very Rev. Father Modestus, assisted by Fathers Bernard and Marianus. On Good Friday, the Mass of the Presanctified was at nine o'clock, and in the afternoon the Tenebrae were followed by the Stations of the Cross. On Easter Sunday, Solemn High Mass was sung by the Very Rev. Father Modestus, the deacon and sub-deacon being Father Bernard and Father John, after which took placp the pro- cession and Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacra- ment. The procession, in which some fifty or sixty persons took part, through the Cemetery and grounds of the Monastery, had a very solemn effect. ENGLISH CONGREGATIONAL CHAPEL.—A series of special sermons will be held in this chapel next week, the preachers being the Revs. D. B. Hooke, Rhyl; H. Barrow Williams, Wrexham; Thomaa Nicholson, Denbigh; D, B. Evans, Mold; David Oliver and Owen Thomas, M.A., Holywell. On Tuesday evening a general society will be held. CARRIAGE ACCIDENT.-An accident, fortunately unattended with any serious results, happened on Sunday morning last, to a carriage belonging to Mr. Tomkins, of Penypylle, as it was being driven to town. The horse, through some means or other, bolted, and the shafts of the carriage were broken, the occupants escaping uninjured. The horse with the broken shafts dangling at its side, ran,direct to the stables at the King's Head Hotel. ST. WINEFRIDE'S ROMAN CATHOLIC CHAPEL.— Services were held at the above Chapel on Good Friday when the passion sermon was preached by the Rev. Father Swift, from the seven last words of our Saviour on the Cross. The services were continued throughout Easter. The altar decorationg were very skilfully executed, and presented a very pretty appearaucee a splended display of flowers being sent from private conservatories THE CYCLISTS.—The first run of the season of the Holywell Cycle Club took place on Good Friday, when a start was made at eleven o'clock from the Kings Head Hotel, the headquarters of the club, and also of the Cyclist Touring Club for Abergele. The weather was exceptionally fine, and a very enjoyable run took place, the route chosen being through Newmarket, Rhuddlan, and Bodelwyddan to Abergele. After partaking of dinner at the Bee Hotel, the wheelmen made a rapid run for home, the return journey being through St. Asaph. On Easter-Monday the members had a run to Mold, but the rain which had fallen made the ground much heavier for travelling than it was on Good Friday. EASTER-MONDAY IN HOLYWELL. -Easter- Monday has been regarded as a general holiday in Holywell before the time when, by the intervention of a "sainted" Lubbock, the day was declared to be the first Bank Holiday of the year, and the rule so long established was generally observed this year. Business was for the most part suspended during the day, and a large number of holiday-makers and pleasure seekers paraded the streets. A few stalls and photographic saloons were pitched in High- street after the fashion of the oft-spoken of good old days," when the market was held in the open air. In a field adjoining the Halkyn-street Board School a number of shooting galleries, swing boats, merry-go-rounds and shows contributed to the ''fun of the fair," and here the juvenile portion of the holiday-makers found ample amusement. The weather was dull, with occasional showers of rain, and a cold wind prevailed. VISIT OF THE REV. RICHARD OWEN.—This well- known Evangelist visited Holywell on Tuesday last, and preached three sermons in Rehoboth Calvinistic Methodist Chapel. For some time prior to the morning, afternoon and evening services, prayer meetings were held to invoke divine blessing on the services of the preacher, whose almost incessant labors in the towns and villages of North Wales, marked as they have been, with undoubted success, have rendered his name familiar in almost every household in the northern portion of the Principality. The peculiar fascination by which the preacher holds his hearers was strikingly shown at Tuesday's services, when the large chapel was densely crowded, especially in the evening, the seats and aisles in the body of the chapel and galleries being densely packed, and some were uuablc to get even standing room within the build- ing. The large congregation included persons from the towns and villages around Holywell, and not a few had travelled many miles for the purpose of listening to the discourses of the acceptable revival- ist preacher. At the close of each service the names of persons wishing to become members of the churches of the several denominations were n'n 0 received, and in the evening service alone twenty- four persons intimated their intention of becoming church members. On Wednesday evening, an united society" was held in Chapel-street Chapel for the purpose of encouraging those who were desirous of joining the churches. We are informed that the Rev. Richard Owen has promised to visit Holywell for a week during the month of July. DRAMATIC ENTERTAINMENT.—On Tuesday evening last, a dramatic entertainment was given in St. Winefride's Hospice, by the members of the St. Winefride's Young Men's Clnb. The spacious room was decorated with suitable mottoes, and the attendance was tolerably large. The first part of the entertainment was taken up with the performance of a sacred drama, entitled "Joseph and his brethren." The performers dis- played considerable talent in the histrionic art, some of the characters being exceedingly well represented, Mr. A. Durken's representation of Benjamin being deserving of special mention Mr. Goddard, as Simeon was also much appre- ciated, and the acting on the whole reflected great credit on the members of the St. Winefride's Club. The following were the dramatis persona —Joseph', the Prime minister of Pharoah, (Mr. C. M. Leaning), Utabal, Joseph's steward (Mr. A. Conlon), An officer, (Mr. J.J.Moran), Simeon (Mr. H. Goddard), Naphtali, (Mr. J. Dolman), Reuben (Mr. F. Conlon), Benjamin (Mr. A. Durken), the last four characters were Joseph's brothers; Jacob, Joseph's father (Mr. J. Durken). Joseph's other brothers, with soldiers, guards, Egyptians and other persons were represented. An interval took place at the con- clusion of the piece, when excellent selections of music were played by the young ladies of the Convent School, and Mr. A. Durkin sang Hutchinson's favorite ballad Ehren on the Rhine," with good taste, and was deservedly applauded. Mr. Goddard followed with a comic ditty, and was warmly received and recalled. The second part of the programme commenced with a comic farce in one act, which bore the title of a "Thumping Legacy," in which was represented the comic adventures of a hilarious Englishman, or a true Briton," as he styled himself, in Corsica. The piece throughout was very amusing, and created continual outbursts of laughter. The scene was in an inn on the island of Corsica, and the following was the caste: Fillipo Gerimo, inn- keeper (Mr. C. M. Leaning), Jerry Ominous, his nephew (Mr. Goddard), Bambogetti (Mr. A. Conlon), Leoni (Mr. F. Conlon), Brigadier of Carbineers (Mr. Joseph Durken), First Carbineer (Mr. J. Dolan), Second Carbineer (Mr. J. J. Moran), Rosetta, daughter of Fillipo (Mr. Austin Durkin). At the termination of the performance the audience dispersed after having thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The proceeds will be devoted to augment the funds of the St. Winefred'g Catholic School. ANNUAL VESTRY MEETING.—The Easter Vestry meeting for the election of churchwardens and the examination of the charity accounts was held on Monday morning, the Vicar presiding, and there was a tolerably good attendance. The Vicar re- appointed Mr. John Carman as his warden for the ) ensuing year, and on the motion of Mr. J. Lloyd Price, seconded by Mr. Peters, Mr. Garner was again selected as parish warden. The examination of the several charity accounts, occupied considerable time, Mr. Thomas Hughes going minutely into various matters with respect to the Griffith Jones' charity, consisting of land at Leadbrook, Flint, it was pointed out by Mr. Hughes that the rent had remained the same for over 80 years, and he pro- posed that the churchwardens should take steps to have it increased. Mr. Earl seconded the motion which was carried.—The repair of the charity property at Ysceifiog provoked some discussion, and ultimately it was agreed on the motion of Mr. J. Lloyd Price, seconded by Mr. Thomas Hughes, the matter was left in the hands of the churchwardens to make the best terms possible for the repair of the one habitable cottage, and fur building a boundary wall on the property. Attention was called to the Cae Cwyu property, in the tenancy of Mr. Gabriel Ames, the lease for which, at an annual rental of six guineas, had expired. It was stated that the former churchwardens had arranged with the tenant to pay an annual leutal of c8, but the tenant; had not since paid that amount on the ground that he had not received formal notice of the increase. A resolution was therefore passed that the church- wardens should demand the balance of the increased reni, find failing his paying the amount, that the tenant be served with notice to quit, and that he also be called upon to put the property in repair under the terms of his lease. Under the Ellis Parry charity three boys had last year received £1 each on their apprenticeship, and there was a balance in hand on this charity of £ 2i Ss. 2d.—Mr. Thomas Hughes asked whether there were not poor boy2 at Bagillt or Brynford who were entitled to this charity MI. Caiman could not say, but personally he should have no objection to boys from Bagillt or
