CHESTER CONSERVATIVES AT RHYL.
CHESTER CONSERVATIVES AT RHYL. GREAT DEMONSTRATION. The annual excursion and pic-nic of the members of the Chester Constitutional Association took place on Monday, the spot chosen for the outing being Rhyl, to which a cordial invitation had been extended them by the members of the Rhyl Conservative Association. The demonstration was not only the largest and most imposing yet held, but the arrangements were so well planned and carried out, that everything passed off in the most pleasant manner. The weather was delight- fully fine, indeed the day was about the most brilliant we have had during this extraordinary year, and enjoy- ment reigned supreme. The members and their families, to the number of about 3000, assembled at the Linenhall Skating Rink at half-past eight, and there were decorated with medals, bearing on side the Crown and Bible, and ou the other the "18(>8 and 1874," pleasant reminders of the victories obtained by the Conservatives of Chester in those two memorable years. A procession was then formed, arid preceded by the band, themeniber; marched to the General Railway Station* where, in company with M»\ H. C. Raikes, M.P., who went with them to i the -staition, and was cordially received, Mr. W. M. I Willie as, J.P., the Chairman of the Association, and a large yumber of the principal supporters, 'they proceeded in heavily-freighted specssJ trains to their destina- Arriving at Hhyl, thoe-r were by, amongst others, the following members of the Rkyl Conservative Association and other friend's, who accorded them a to party welcome:—Mr. J. Churton, J.P,, Moranedd !!f'Cha:r.nan of theRhytCoiisscrvativc-^ssociation); Capt. Po. P. Pennant, Mr, Twnshend Mainwaring, J.P., S'Galltfaenan; Messrs. T. Hughes.

They sat down in parties of nine or ten hundiw' at a time, s ml those who arrived late ( were liberally provided, fur by Mr. Smith, of tiie Web lington Inu. -Sireade Road. Afterwards the large com- pany strolled about tJw gardens, and dashing was indulged ise. Shortly aster four o'clock, when the I company OK the ground numbered considerably over 4,000, an iiifurinal public meeting was held, tlte band stand serving ;as the platform. Mr. W. Maysmer Williams presided, was supported by R, hre mur- ber of the priucipalmcm bel's of the Chester and Rhy.1 Associatio^-s. Mr. W. M. Wiixi.v; who was received with klit cheers, sai l the reception the Rhyl Conservative as- sociation has given us t/)-day is most gratifying, andi-iit at any future time they like to come to Chester with Mr. Pennant at their fee ad—(cheers)—we wiH reciprocate the same f/ood feeling they have shown us te-d&y. We are not lurre to make any lengthened speeches, (;,8 I as* sure you'will be anxious to hear Mr. Raikes—(hear, hear)—and 1 now call upon Mr. John Churton, choir- man of tLe Rhyl Conservative Association. to address I you. Mr..1 CHUJITON, J.P., of Moranedd, usio received with cheers, said Ladies and gentlemen. I have been requested, as chairman of the Rhyl O&neerva- tive Association, to give to the members of the Chester Constitutional Association a hearty welcome PAyl (Hear, hear and applause). I do so with much gieater pleasure than if I had only been a mere resident in (this town, f»ir I have bees associated with Chester for fifty years, during which 1 nailed my colours to the mast, whore I hope they will be to the day of my detrJi. (Applause). I am very glad to say that at the meetings I have attended of thellkyl Conservative Association tk.ring the last fortnight Jb-never saw so hearty and unanimous a determination to .give you a real and hearty welcome. We have put our shoulders to the wheel to give you a hearty reception, and if any of you who have not been properly attended go to any who wear a blue rosette like that I wear, and collar him-(laughter)-he will be sure to give you a hearty reception. (Hear, hear and applause). This is one of the happiest days of my life. I have wished to 'live to see the working men of this country acknowledge Conservatism. I don't want the whole country to do so; I want the real working aen to find out and appreciate who their real friends are. (Applause). I can only tell them that if they stick to the Conservative party, with Lord Beaconsfield and the 1arqu;s of Salisbury at their head-(Joud cheers-- I feel quite convinced that now peace is being restored in all parts of the world, and trade reviving, they will be securing their best interests. The other side ha-v-e blamed the Government, and broadly stated that the general depression jn trade arose in consequence of the Government bein.g in power. It was nothing of the kind. If you have only patience you will see that the trade will revive in a very short time. Only this morn- ing I read that the iron miners of Durham were lighting more furnaces than has been the case for some time past, and that shows a. revival of trade. (Hear, hear). After experiencing in Parliament one of the hardest worked sessions, ill contending against political obstruc- tionists, Sir. Raikes comes down here to give you a a piece of his mind, and to show you that what Sir. Gladstone said so strongly lately is not altogether correct, and no doubt he will place the matter in a satisfactory li .ht, and will make an effective reply to the speech. (Hear, hear and applause). I am rejoiced to see you all here. I welcome you, my Chester friends, and, on behalf of the Rhyl Conservative Association, give you a hearty welcome. Mr. PENNANT, who was received with cheers, after a few introductory remarks, said I am here to-day, as most of you are, to express my sympathy with Mr. Raikes. (Hear, hear.) It is a well-known fact that of all members of the House of Commons the Chairman of Committees. is the hardest worked. (Hear, hear.) And yet, although Mr. Raikes holds that position, and although this last session was the hardest and longest session we have had for many years, what do we find ? What happened at the close of the session ? What did the Liberals of Chester do ? They went to Hawarden and rolled down that big gun from there to Chester. (Loud laughter and applause.) They loaded it as best they could, and what was the effect of discharging that gun. (A voice The poor woodcutter," and a laugh.) I do not think there was any shot in that gun it was merely a signal gun, at which all the Conservatives of Chester uprose as one man—(interruption)—and here they are, having come here to enjoy the salubrious breeze of Flintshire at Uhyl. (Hear, hear amI appb,us3.) Now, what was that gun loaded with ? (A voice "Pop." Laughter.) It was loaded with a suckling statesman of the name of Lawley. (Hisses.) Mr., Gladstone said that any constituency that would take 1 charge of a young suckling statesman was doing a service to the country. I partially agree with him there, and I recollect this, that it was Chester, when Mr. Raikes was a boy almost, took him by the hand and sent him to the House of Commons—(hear, hear: and cheers)—and it is owing to Chester that we have now in Mr. Raikes an educated statesman. (Hear, hear and applause.) Mr. Raikes is still in the prime of life he is an experienced man, and has worked hard for Chester and his country. (Hear, hear and applause.) Look at him Although he is still young his hair has grown grey in the service of his country,—(hear, hear and cheers)—and are you voters of Chester to reject that man? Cries of "No, no," and "Never.") Will you do it for this suckling statesman of Sir. Gladstone's? (Cries of no, no," and hooting.) There can be no doubt of what your choice will be. You have shown that you agree with Mr. Gladstone to the extent that a constituency which brings forward a young statesman does a service to the country. You have done it; but when he becomes a mature statesman will you throw him aside? (Cries of "No, no.") Yesterday evening I was sitting with an old friend of yours who would have been here to-day but for the unfortunate accident that befel him—I allude to Colonel Humberston. (Cheers). A voice: "Three cheers for Colonel Humberston," a call that was cordially acceded to—His two arms were by his side in slings, and while we were talking over what would take place here to-day, he looked down at his arms and shook his head, and with a sigh, said, How I wish I could be there." (Cheers). This unfortunate accident happened while he was riding round the coun- try beating up some friends to give you a welcome here to-day. (Renewed cheers). 1 will not detain you any longer this beautiful evening, but will conclude by ex- pressing the great gratification it gives us in Flintshire to see you here to-day. Depend upon it if our sea breezes do you good the atmosphere surrounding your constitutional principles will do us an immensity of good. (Cheers.) Mr. RAIKES, M.P., addressing his hearers as his fellow- citizens, a title by which, he said, no other candidate for the representation of Chester could fairly address them, said there were many public men in this country who might have greater claims upon the fealty ar allegi- ance of a party, men who held office on the one side or the other, and whose names were known throughout the length and breadth of the land, but he stood before them as one whose object it had been to serve the City of Chester. (Cheers). He had also served the House of Commons. (Cheers). Those who served the House of Commons had cast upon them most peculiar and special duties, duties which it was impossible for them to perform unless they were supported by the confidence and respect of both sides of the House. (Cheers). During the six arduous years in which it had been his duty to stem the tide of tumult and disorder, and to vindicate the great traditions of English public life it had been his privilege to receive from one and all, from the leader of the party on the one side, and the leader of the party on the other that generous, cordial, and constant sup- port which alone had made his difficult task possible. (Hear, hear). There had been one exception. One man out of the British House of Commons, and that not a mere private member, not a novice in political warfare, not an inexperienced enthusiast who rushed into Parliament full of the latest craze, which might have captivated a section of excitable electors, but a man who had sat, as he told them, in eleven Parlia- ments, who had been Prime Minister of England and led the House of Commons. (Groans). This man had "found" it compatible with his idea of public duty within three days of the ending of the Session to come down into a constituency with which he had no earthly connection in order to denounce him (Mr. Raikes). He wanted to speak with becoming respect of every political opponent, and of Mr. Gladstone in particular, and he be- lieved, as far as he could judge, that he had more respect for Mr. Gladstone than Mr. Gladstone had for himself. (Laughter and cheers). He regretted to see the decline of so great a reputation, and lamented that so great and distinguished a man as Mr. Gladstone had become I so unworthy of his fame. (Cheers). They had before them two candidates—though he was not aware that Parliament was on the eve 0 of dissolution—who were anxious to run together and to alter the present state of the representation of the city of Chester. Sir. Glad- stone had told the people of Chester that he believed the Conservatives of Chester could not be in a majority, because they had not thought fit to trample upon the convictions of the opposing party, because they had acted upon the good old motto of "Live and let live," and had, in all the elections with which he (Sir, Raikes) had been connected, shown their moderation to all men. They were, therefore, to be deprived of their voice in the representation of the city, because their two present members did not vote just eye to eye with each other and with Sir. Gladstone. They were to be deprived of the services of one of them, and all this was to be done because it pleased Sir. Gladstone to come to Chester as sponsor for an interesting young relative of his wife—(laughter)—who, he had also been good enough to remind them, was also a near relation to a certain distinguished family. (Renewed laugliterf. There were many things in which Mr. Gladstone had made his mark. He had been a great scholar, great ad- ministrator, great leader in the House of Com- irons, and now he aspired to another office, to become a great electioneering agent. (Laughter). He had read Sir. Gladstone's speech carefully. Its lan- guage, although violent, was vague, and it was, in effect, the repetition of a thrice-told tale. His charges against the Government might be resolved into three— first, that they had been extravagant secondly, that they had been unconstitutional; and thirdly, that their diplomacy had been unsuccessful. He (Sir. Raikes) had always heM himself free to criticise the financial policy of the -Government, and be considered it wonld have been Weill if the (overr.rent had taken earlier steps to repair those ravages vrhich their predecessors had created by their pinchin-g economy in the army 1vnd navy, devoting the surplus of six millions banded over to them to that purpose. Timely pre- paration might have waited off war in the bast. '(Cheers.) What other legacy had Sir. Gladstone's ta-overnwsnt left then? It had disestablished the Irish Church, and who was the better for that? (Cheers.) They revolutionised tIN relations of landlord and tenant in Ireland. Werf the Irish tenants a bit more coritsift now than they vere before? (Laughter.) The | expense and delay in the administration of tk-e lawthex had premised to refonr, but did anybody get hIS cr. } tri-ed any quicker or« £ ieaper than he years ago? j;.(las«ghter.) He chafed against then they had weakened our forces by their niggardly retrenchment they had difficulty in fighting a savage enensj-in a distant land, and the man wlw had done rthis I'VX'-uld be pointed out in history in future days -as the 11W.ln to whom all strange acts were to be referred, Mhe man who violate 1 the Constitution in this ■country | by passing Army Eeform Bills, and who did not shrink jiJVom imputing in that building uishsnaltyto the-Queen —(groans)—an excess of public language which -he did j*iot think had ever before been committed ;));1" any public man in tkir century. (Hear, hear.) This was the man who talsred to them abo-ct unconstitutional conduct and about extravagance, when he had so crippled their finances that they wene obligecVto repair his ravages at expense, and who asked them to send another to 'Parliament to yot", ditto ditto'to him- self and Mr. Dodson. (Laughter and cheers.) He caned upon then: in reply to make anotlwrst3.nd for the liberty of reps»esentation, and repudiate the stranger whom it was attempted to force .down their throats. (Laughter and ch -ers.) Sir. J. THOMSON (Broughton Hill) proposed a vote of thanks to the Rhvl Conservative Association. The speaker expressed, a hope that Sir. Pennant would be returned at the aext election member of Parliament for the Flintshire Boroughs. Sir. BOYDELL seconded the resolution, which was carried with acclamation. Sir. J. CHUIU'OS acknowledged the compliment. The proceedings then terminated with three cheers for Sir. Raikes. The pavty thes. resumed the festivities, and in the course of the evening they were conveyed back to Chester by the social trains.
! THE DEE SALMON FISHERY.
THE DEE SALMON FISHERY. The great destruction of fish which has recently oc- curred in the Riser Dee has led the Home Secretary to send Sir. Frank Buckland and Sir. Spencer Walpole, inspectors of fisheries, to inquire into the pollution of the Dee and its tributaries by lime, lead, refuse, &c., and its effects in poisoning fish in the stream, and also to receive evidence as to the proposed new by-laws of the Dee Conservancy Board for altering the close time of the Dee salmon fishery. After visiting Minera Mountain, on the Nant or Pickhill Brook, one of the tributaries of the Dee, three miles from Wrexham, and inspecting the spoil banks of lime and refuse partially washed away by the recent floods, and the means being taken to prevent a recurrence of the catastrophe, the inspectors returned to Chester, and opened their inquiry at the Town-hall with regard to the proposal to alter the salmon fishing season. The present close season for all but rod fishing is from the 31st of August to the 1st of February, while the rod fishing remains open to November 1. The new pro- posals of the Dee Conservancy Board were that the annual close season for all modes of salmon fishing, except rod and line, should commence on the Kith of September and terminate on the 2nd of March follew- ing, and for rod and line commence on the 1st of December and end on the 31st of Slarch. The season for netting would thus commence two months later and continue a fortnight longer than at present. Evidence was given by a number of fisherman of long experience un the river, the effect of whose statements was that the salmon season on the Dee was a late one, and that it might very well be extended in the latter portion of the year, the early months being comparatively value- less. The inquiry was adjourned to Llangollen, where the inspectors held a meeting at the Hand Hotel on Friday last. There were present—Sir. H. Robertson, M.P., vice-chairman of the Hoard; Hon. C. H. Wynn, Rug: Slajcir Tottenham, Sir. Hughes Parry, Sir. Keu-, T. i.his, Bala; Mr. Shaw, Bangor; Sir. G. Lewis, &c.; Captain Houston, h<>n. sec., and Messrs. Duncan and Pritohard, solicitors to the Board. Sir. HUGHES PAlmY, Llangollen Fechan, gave evidence, objecting to the extension of the net season. He thought the river was already spoilt with the exten- sive netting that was carried on. The river had improved tJJlS year on account of the heavy rains and floods. He had been informed that a number of kelts had been taken out of the river and sold in the neigh- bourhood of Cefn. He fished up to the end of the present rod season, but he should like the river closed 14 days earlier in the season than was the case now. He did not think any advantage was gained by the new by- laws. SO:. ROBERTSON, M.P., said he had been interested in fishing since 1S42. The river was now in a compara- tively good state, and had been much improved by the legislature. When he heard about the suggested alterations in the bye-laws, he did not send any protest, as he believed they would not be sanctioned. The effects of the new rules would be to increase the powers of those using the net, and to diminish the stock in the river. There was a large increase of late in the number of those using nets who made a living out of the river, and he did not think they required any special considera- tion. The main loss to the river was an insufficient quantity of breeding stock. He did not think the proposed extension of the rod season to be of any importance. His principal objection was to the ex- tension of the net season, as it would enable those using nets to catch fish going to spawn, and conse- quently this would seriously affect the river. The meet- ing of the Board of Conservators at which the by-laws were passed, was only attended by sixteen conservators, of whom five were representative members, and this made him of opinion that the majority did not approve of the alterations which, if they resulted in not making all fishermen take the same interest in the preservation of the fish as was the case now, would be disastrous to many. He intended to give notice of a special meeting to consider the matter. He was a member of the Mid Dee Club. He was of opinion that any departure from the parliamentary legislation would be injurious. He did not think the fish were fit to take after October, as if the later they eaught them there was the probability of catching those which were the surest to breed, and thus the stock of spawning fish would be diminished. Supposing the nets were allowed another fortnight in September, he for one would not take the same interest in angling as he did now, as just at that time the angler had the best sport. When the Dee was considered to have a surplus of stock then an extension of the season might be allowed, but until that was the case he did not think the Board were justified in making any change. He had twenty-six miles of single bank of the river, besides tributaries, and in these miles there were many spawning grounds which could contain more fish than at present. Mr. BUCKLAND remarked that the arguments used in favour of the matters were that, as they paid £5 for their license, they were entitled to some consideration. Sir. ROBERTSON said his answer to that was that it would not be to their advantage to catch the fish, which would supply the future generations of the river. Air. SHAW said that the net fishermen agreed with Mr. Robertson that any change would be to the dis- advantage of all. Major TOTTENHAM said he owned about ten miles of single bank. As one of the upper proprietors of the river, he was opposed to any extension being allowed. If the netters had the fifteen days in September, it was proposed to give them, it would not only decrease the stock, but would interfere with the anglers, who had their best sport about that time. After the end of October he did not think the fish were worth eating. He had never thought of fishing for salmon in June. A large majority of the upper proprietors were opposed to the proposed alterations. This year, out of eight fish he had caught, five were cocks, and three were hens. From the source of the Dee to the lower waters, the proprietors supplied their own private watchers, number- ing forty or fifty altogether. The river was capable of maintaining a much larger stock than was in it. Even if the bye-law was passed, he would not allow fish- ing in his water during the month of November, as it would be injurious. THOMAS MCSHEE, head water baliff to the Board, gave evidence in favour of the proposed alterations, as he thought the extension would tend to diminish the poach- ing that was now carried on. GBIFFITH LEWIS, Llangollen, who had known the river for forty-five years, and EDWARD JONES, fishermen, gave evidence to the effect that the changes would not be of any advantage to the fishermen. At the close of the inquiry, Mr. BUCKLAND thanked the witnesses for the evidence that had been given, which, he said, would be duly considered, and reported upon. I

The following Testimonials, among many others, have been recently received at tue Liverpool UJnce, 7, Clayton Square :— BRONVHITIS, WITH SPINAL WEAKNESS. Sir. W. Wilson, (12, Peuton-street, Liverpool, writes — "2nd August, 17).-Since last Christmas I have been a, great sufferer from bronchitis, with pains in the chest and back. I have now worn for two months one of your Nerve and Lung lnvi-orators, with the result that the pain has entirely left me; my breathing is much easier; phlegm passes off easily and in every way I am better in health. I am 59 years of age, and well known in Liverpool." RHEUMATISM, SPINAL AND CHEST WEAKNESS. Sir. John Hills, Dolawen, Bethesda, Bangor, writes 3ht July, 1879.—I am glad to inform you that the Knee Cap which my father had from you has done me great good.; the pains are neither so severe or frequent, and he has derived great benefit from the Belt, as he now never feels any pain in his back. And I am also glad to inform yun that the Lung Invigorator obtained for my wife has, I believe, quite cured her she is getting quite strong and healthy again. ASTHMA, ETC. Irs. E. Slulvey, 34, Holden-street, Liverpool, writes —"Having long suffered severely from asthma and chest disease, f was persuaded to try one of your Slagnetic Lung Invig'orators, which has relieved me of great pain. Sly only regret is that I did not obtain it earlier." DEBILITY AND INDIGESTION. Mr. Reynolds Waters, Insurance Agent, 28A, Nevill- street, Southport, writes I cannot speak too highly of the Slagnetic Belt I obtained from you last autumn*; its effect on my circulation was such that I could dis- pense with an overcoat on the coldest days, and my weight, appetite, and general health are all improved, ——— BRONCHITIS AND CHEST WEAKNESS. Sir. Thomas Sharpies, 5, Angela-street, Liverpool, writes:—"In reply to yours, I beg to say that your Slagnetic Appliance has proved very satisfactory to me my cough is a great deal better." HOARSENESS AND LOSS OF VOICE. Sir. J. Williams, 1, Carreg Domas, Holyhead, writes —"Your Slagnetieon Appliance has done me a great deal of good soon after applying it." CONSTIPATION AND INDIGESTION. Ann Slyerscough, 28, Hudson-street, Preston, writes — "I have worn your Slagnetic Belt about two months, and it has done me a great amount of good. Sly food does me much more good, and I am altogether better in health." WEAK ANKLES. Sirs. E. Rigby, 41, Slill-street, Liverpool, writes— Your Appliances have given great satisfaction. Sly little Loy had been unable to go to school for nearly two months from pains and swellings in his ankles. He was able to go anywhere after wearing the Appliances only one week." ASTHMA AND BRONCHITIS. Sirs. Airey, St. Paul's-square, Liverpool, writes— "Both in breathing and coughing I find a great benefit from your Slagnetieon." INDIGESTION. P.C., 21, Woodside-street, Edge Hill, Liverpool' writes—"Your Appliance has quite cured me of indiges" CHEST DEBILITY AND GENERAL WEAKNESS. Archibald Laurie, 78, Dorritt-street, Liverpool, writes—" I have found immense benefit during the last severe winter from your Lung Invigorator. Being in the police force, I have been greatly exposed both night and day, and I am satisfied that it has enabled me to resist the colds which have formerly seriously affected my chest." BRONCHITIS, 1\1. A. II., 18, Martensen-street, Liverpool, writes— "I have much pleasure in stating that your Lung Invigorator has done me a great deal of good." LIVER COMPLAINT AND INDIGESTION- Mrs. Wynne, 97, Soho-street, Liverpool, writes—"I beg to say that the Appliances I got from you have proved very beneficial to me. I have for the last two or three years suffered extremely from indigestion and liver complaint. I was under different doctors during that time without receiving any benefit whatever. I am now quite well, and can eat anything whatever—in fact, I feel quite myself again. I would recommend anyone suffering from the same complaints to try your Magneticon Appliances." SEVERE AFFECTION OF THE LUNGS WITH HEMORRHAGE. Mr. G. R. Laurence, 91, Sutton-street, Tuebrook, writes—"I have derived great benefit from the Lung Invigorator supplied by you. For seme time I had a severe pain in the left lung, and spat blood. I am glad to say the pain has now disappeared, and I am in my usual health." It is unquestionably true of MAGNETISM as it undoubt- edly is of MONEY-while a little is good a great deal is incomparably better—the reason why Wetton and Co.'s Extra Special Power Appliances have achieved such a distinction in RELIEVING AND CURING DISEASE, is because they impart a great amount of "MAGNETISS1 TO THE SYSTEM. Mr. Hagarty has adopted Wetton and Co.'s Appli- ances from the fact they contain infinitely greater Magnetic Power than any others. REVISED PRICE LIST. OF SPECIAL AND EXTRA SPECIAL POWER.

Defendants pleaded guilty. There was a second case against them for stealing a ham on the previous afternoon, and selling it for 2s. 3d. at Bridge End. The defendants admitted this theft also, but the case was not gone into. The Bench sentenced the defendants to three months' imprisonment with hard labour. BREWSTER SESSIONS.
