To the Editor of the North IVales Gazette. SIR, IT is a general wisb, after people are mar- ried, to ha ve tllildren; there are many motives to urge such desires, a perpetuation of name aod family, a wish not to appear singular, and be subjected to the laugh of their neighbours, and perhaps a natural fondness which they may possess for children. But at last, it must be allowed, that "They are certain ca-reg, but uncertain comforts." and the privation of them. in many cases, more than compensates for the enjoyment they at- ford to their parents. Many instances might be adduced where the acquisition of a son and heir, has entailed poverty upou respectable families. i In my journey through life, I have fre- quently known wives, who, wearied heaven with prayers" for* a son. Now Editor, I consider this anxiely as being almost impious; for the Lord knows best what is good for us" and we ollght 10 rest contented. The wife of Sir Thomas More,after having borne several daughters, had, to indulge her ardent wishes, a son, who proved little belter than an idiot: on which her husband told her" she had long prayed for a boy, that she now had one, who would prove a boy as long as he lived." I knew a worthy couple who had many girls, bill, never had a son, until at length, few years before the wane of life they had a son, to their great joy, as they thought. But alas how short sigiited are we he lived to spend all his own property, aud by borrowing from his sisters and friends, he greatly impoverished tueln all. It was a pious prayer of a gentleman, whom 1 knew, upon the nurse presenting hiin with a new-born son, ejaculating O God! give biin grace, or take him to thyself whilst he is intiocent.11-gueli indeed should be the re- signed prayer of all parents, on the birth of a child. What rejoicings have been heard throughout the land upon the birth of an heir to the Crown ? How blind arc we to the future dispensations of Providence? Would the pa. rents of Charles I. Louis XVL. or his son the Dauphin, have had cause of exultation if they could have witnessed, or even have conceived an idea of their lamentable fate ? During upwards of fifty years residence in these our Cambrian districts, I have witnessed the bon- fires, entertainments, illuminations and rejoic- ings which have taken place on the birth of a son and heir to respectable families; I have lived to see some of those heirs, squander away their estates,and their entire properly has pas- sed under the hammer of an auctioneer—we may conclude by saying that oftentimes we know not what we ask." Arran, 1815, OBSERVER.

ON THE GROWTH OF TIMBER, For the North Wales Gazette. IT cannot be too frequently obtruded to the notice of gentlemen of landed property, how incumbent it is on them to encourage plant- ing, and the growth of timber trees. Your columns have repeatedly urged them to the exercise of this, I must say, positive duty, a duty which they owe to themselves and their posterity. In the grounds of some noblemen and gentlemen in England, are to be found trees of the most majestic size, and of the largest scantling. At Durham, the seat of the Earl of Stam- ford and Warrington, the .magnitude of the b el elms aod beeches, strike the beholder with a pleajing surprise. From some of the family deeds, it appears, that above two hundred years ago, they are mentioned as the trees in the old wood. During a violent storm on the 21st of Jan. 1802, one of the immense oaks (the fourth or fifth only in point of size) was blown over. The measurement of it, over the bark, was 481 feet; after the bark had been stripped off it was found to contain 403 feet of timber, aod that so valujible, that 373 feet of it were sold for mill-shafts, at 6s. 6d. per foot, or for 1211. 7s. 9d. An elm tree which was blown. down at the same time, measured 146 feet, and sold for 361.10s. at the rate of is. per foot. The following is an estimate of the number of solid feet of timber, contained in teu of the largest trees. Feet in the trunk. Ft. in br. Total.

Although our Cambrian regions cannot per- haps boast of exhibiting an equal number of trees of au equal size yet we may console ourselves, that this patriotic pursuit is daily j exleuding itself, and encreasing and we have the satisfaction of knowing, that we have im- mense tracts of lauds in North Wales, well a- dapted for the growth of limber, and possessed by gentlemen of true public spirit, so that our posterily may be gratified in beholding the la- bours of their ancestors to vie with those of any of the English counties. Our Alpine regions offer a temptation to planting, which cannot be checked, as it is in some Euglish counties, by an apprehension that it may interfere with Agriculture. Num- berless situations are found here, that invite the land owners to exert themselves, in res- cuing their present unproductive state from the scorn with which, some travelling ob- servers have thought proper to treat them. I liave been informed that a survey of our Wel',<? Counties is likel), soon to be published; if so, I am in hopes that every gentleman that has exerted ltimiself, and contributed to im- prove the face of his native country, will be induced to furnish accounts of the numbers of trees, and extent of his plantations,specifying th6 parish and county in which lie has made his improvements; as also the number of acres which he has drained, or otherwise rescued- from their former unprofitable state. Dolgelley, 1815. CJUEIIICUS.

AGRICULTURE. To the Editor of the North Wales Gazette. SIR, IT was an observation of Peter the Great, Emperor of Russia, who resided some time in England, u that the happiest race of men,that inhabited the civilizedeatth, were, he thought, the English Gentlemen who farmed their own estates." I believe, that it will not be controverted, that these ranks of men, are in possession of all the Ulile fluid oliite; and for which, they are assuredly indebted to the mild and equita- ble government under which they live-our glorious King and Constitution. In respect to Religion, 1 pronounce it impossible, that any man can feet himself truly happy who is inat- teutive to religious duties, and is regardless of his soul's future happiness, for that is the sine qua non of tranquillity but that happy state is not within the reach of those men. whose minds are incessantly perturbed with a succession of ideas, concerning the existence of some political evils, with which they fancy the State may be affected and are aiming at Reform. But let me return to iiiy subject,— This happiest race of men, the English Gentle- men Farmers. It would be superfluous here, to enumerate the various blessings which they enjpy or to offer a list of the numerous evils from which they are exempt: these are suffi- ciently known to every reflecting mind.— Suffice it here, to adduce to their notice, en- joyments which, if they have not already grasped at, are stiH within their reach. I shall first name—Improvements in Agriculture, and forming extensive plantations. I speak from experience, atthough limited to a circumscrib- ed space. Amusement, excrcise, health, re. gard for the interests of poslerity-and what may be thought the strongest liuk in thischain of attractIOns-wealth, and self-interest urge their claims loudly to their notice and atten. tion. I shall but slightly advert to the present dreary appearance of our denuded country; wliilst I lamentit, I am gratifiedhy lbe obser- vation.that we have vast, and extensive tracts of land, possessed by gentlemen of patriotic souls, whose enlightened minds will be stimu- lated, to exert their unceasing energies to change the face of our country, and render our Cambrian districts to be ranked amongst the most admired, and most enviable of situa- tions in the Island. Let children, yet unborn, be urged to exclaim, with our first parent, at the scene Ipresented to theirwoudering sight, when describing the country —a about me round I saw Hill, dale, and shady tCOMls, and sunny plains, And liquid lapse of murm'ring streams." Nature has been bountiful to our Cambrian regions, to a degree scarcely to be equalled in the whole Island; and shall we, its inheritors and possessors, spurn at these bounteous gift-4, and cast them from us, unheeded and neglect- ed ?-forbid it wisdom, nature, and all the milder passions that bind us to our kindred, and to the relative duties which we owe to society Let it not be said by future ages, to whose perusal your pages may be offered, when they observe the calls and injunctions that they read there, that they were unattend- ed to by their ancestors, lest they should be induced to tear down their monuments and cenotaphs, and consider their memories as un. worthy of being perpetuated. But rather, let it be adduced to the notice of future gene- rations of children, thatsnch and sticti extell, sive tracts of laud were enclosed in the time of their father or grandfather and that such a large wood was planted, and such a wide- spread bog was drained by them which bad remained for time immemorial under water, without almost a possibility of melioration, or improvement. Lastly, let me address myself to humanity, in behalf of the lower ranks in society. How materially wwuld theconaition of the tabouring poor be betiefitted ?-tiicse necessary, and indispensible links of the chain in human airlirs-liow would they hereby be enabled, by the enclosure of waste lands, per- haps, to obtain a small occupation for them- selves; or otherwise to be furnished with con. tinual employment, in their laborious tasks, to obtain their scanty earnings, for the main. tenance of themselves and their families ? Let not ambition mock their useful toil." Permit these effusions to find place in your patriotic pages, and you will oblige, Snoiedonia, 1815. O. LL.

DUKE OF WELLINGTOfN's STATE COACH. For taste and elegance, for splendour, light- ness, and variety, we believe, the abo-we ap- pendages to greatness have no parallel in this or any other country, the Prince Regent's dis- play not excepted. The chef dreeuvre, and the harness are now finished. The b«dy is painted a Devonshire brown, with the family arms, composed of that of the Wellesleys in the first and last quarters, and the Colleys in the second and third the latter is a name (in ancient times rendered illustrious by heroic acts) no longer known it is bbsolete.-Thc -Duke and Duchess sarms form a dOli ble shield; those of the former arc encircled with the Col- l, lar of the Garter, and that of the Golden Fteece; the latter wjiii a foliage of a laurel. Underneath appear the George and the Dra- gon fully personified by every attribute. The Golden Fleece is on the right; on the left a wreath of laurel. The motto below f irlu- lisfortuna comes." The arms are supported by two lions,in argent, rampant; the coronet surmounting the whole. As a superb finish the whole are enclosed within a magnificent mantle of crimson, inimitably well executed. oil the door rails are displayed the Collar and the Order of the Tower and the Sword of Por- tugal, encircling the star of the order, and sus- t-I pending the badge- The quarter-rails have the ribbands aud badges of the Order of St. George of Russia, and the Sword of Sweden. On the quarters, within rich mautles, are the slars of lhe Orders of Verdiuand of Spain, and Maria Theresa of Austria. The front has the arms painted the same way as on the doors; ends the same, As finishing touches we may speftk of the ornaments on the quarter-rails in the angles, superbly chased and gilt, in bur- nished gold, 3Jre the rose,thistle, and the sham- rock. The supp orters—the body issuspended by richly carved snakes issuing from Indian grass and foliage, finely executed, and the whole in burnished old. The roof is encircled by a rich embossed fret-work, representing acgrns; at each corner, and over the door pillju's, are ducal coronets, on cushions and chased pedeslals. There are only two vase- lamps, which are very rich, and completely in the French stylej The door handles are the most beautifulspecimens of chasing ever seen.' fhey are water gilt, and represent the crest, coronet, and the order of the garter, with the motto, surmounted by the coronet, issuing from very rich foliage. The lining is a very rich scarlet lute-siring silk, plaited to .the sides, and doors, bordered with a very rich gold colour orris lace, finish- ed with massive tassels of the same. The car- riage is a compass-perch, elaborately carried between the hoops, with a rich gilt foliage to the sides; with a standard pedestal coach-box. The coach box has stays and blocks carved iu rich ornaments; and flowers on both sides; the four standards have carved palm-leaves, coronets, crests on both sides. The Harness is for a full set of horses, and; consist of black leather, wilh the whole ofthe i backstrapping cut out of the solid, and sewed wp with a double fform sewing. On the hous- ings aud winkers are displayed the Dune's arms, surrounded by richly embossed flowers and foliage, surmounted by the coronet in embossed brass. The terrils are formed by rich foliage, with the coronet on the top of ditto. Ou the sides are displayed magnificent buckles pierced; the hames of the collar are cased in brass, with suitable appendages to the tops of the bridles, and very rich front roses and tassels in scarlet silk. -The postillion's saddle, devised, and stitched upon the skirts with scarlet silk. The stirrups are most ex- quisite; displaying the honeysuckle, a scollop- shell, and other richly chased ornaments, sur- mounted by the crest, and coronet. Upon all the back-straps are displayed rich oval rosettes in brass there are no less than 36 upon each of the trappings. The bridles have a profu. sion of rich embossed ornaments, finety de- signed and executed. The pad and saddle- cloths are white, bordered with gold colour. The whole ot the buckles are with a treble reed, with the corotfet chased on the top, and rich foliae at the bottom. The whole of the traces with embossed oruameuts. t

The candour of Commodore Decatur on the oceasion of his capture is most creditable to him. He said to Captain Hope, Sir, you have out-sailed, out-manoeuvred, and fairly beaten me." Such an admission could only be made by a dignified mind, and is therefore alike honourable to the victor and the van- quished. Parish Banks.-In several parishes of Scot- land there have lately been established places of deposit for the benefit of tradesmen, ser- vants and labourers, who are permitted to de- posit the smallest sum (even as low as one shilling:) they are left at liberty to cousull their own convenience as to the time and amount of their deposits; they drawcompound interest; and retain the power of withdraw- ing their money either in part or in full, ac- cording as their necessities or inclinations ma y require. JVew Remedijfor a Cancer.-M.. Ruele, a French practitioner, asserts, that this cruel disorder may be radically cured in three days, without any surgical operation, by kneading a piece of dough, about the size of a small hen's egg, and a lump of hog's lard, the older the better, of the same dimensions. These substances thoroughly mixed, so as to form a kind ofsalve, must be spiead on a piece of white leather, and applied to the part affect- ed.-M. Ruele cites two cases at Paris, of the efficacy of this simple remedy. An interesting case, Seymour v. Mountain, was tried on Friday last, in the Court of Com- mon Pleas. The defendant is the Proprietor of the Blue Bath Coach, and the plaintiff, the daughter of a respectable tradesman in the country, about 24 years of age. The action was brought for injury sustained hy the over- turning of the coach, by which Miss Seymour's Ihigh was broken.—The damages were laid at 20001. However, in conscquence of circum- stances which came out in the course of the trial, the Chief Justice recommended an ac- commodation; nndit was agreed, that the plainliff should have a verdict conditionally, and receive from the defendant 1001, The following copy of a placard, stuck up Iasi night in several public places, and sur- rounded this morning by a crowd of passing readers,affords a striking specimen of the ir- rational and antipacific manner in which the resistance to the measure now before Parlia- ment is promoted and organised "NO CORN LAWS—LOW RENTS—AND SMALL FARMS No Corn Laus-ncnts Lowered-Small Farms—The Reduction of National Expen- diture 11 Then bread, meat, and other necessaries will be as cheat. as on the Continent.

On the Magistrates leaving the gaol, Sir William Middletou was surrounded by the po. pulace, who hooted and pelted him till he took refuge in the Great White Horse Inn; and the adjoining street was filled with disorderly peo- ple, who stood debating on the Corn Bill till late in the evening nor was Sir William able to retire home to Shrnbland Mall (escorted by a numher of constables and dragoons), till ten o'clock at night, when the tumultuous multitude had dispersed. HATTON GARDEN.—On Saturday, J. Tubb, a music.il! cabinet-maker, who lives at No. 23, Tottenham-place, Totleuham-court-road, was brought up for final examination, charged by the parish officers of St. Pancras, with the most flagrant acls of çruelly to his two children, the eldest a boy of 12 years of age and the young est a girl of nine. It appeared, that the wife of the prisoner, and mother to these unfortu- nate children, was formerly tried and convict- ed for her cruel treatment to them, and suf- fered six months imprisonment. Among other acts of cruelty alledged against the prisoner and his wife, who is not in custody, was keeping them without food or clothes, and making the boy shift for himself, and locking him out at night, so that he was glad to sleep in a stable or cow-house. The mode of punishment in. flicted ou these children were taking them by the heels and throwiug them against the floor, flogging them with a leather strap, or throw- ing cold water on them, with many other such cruel acts. The children are under the care of a physician in the workhouse. Several re spectable neighbours were bound over to pro- secute, and the prisoner was committed for want of bail. Lunacy.—On Monday last, about twelve o'clock, a most extraordinary circumstance took place at the Horse Guards, in the yard between the iron gates in Whitehall and the general building. A gentleman of about 60 years of age, after walking about for some time in a state of great agitation, made up to the scalincl in the passage leading from the open space to the Orderly rooms, and produc- ing a brace of pistols, insisted upon his light- ing him. The senliuel ordered him to with draw from his post, which he did, to the open space, where he discharged one of the pistols in the air, and immediately after presented the other at his own head. A iife.guardsman and another person rushed in upon him at the instant, and with difficulty wrested the pistol from him. It was found to be charged with ball. Sayers, the Bow-street officer, who was passing at the time, took charge of the gen- tleman, and as he refused to give any account of himself, proceeded to search him. There were fonnJbn bis person Exchequer Bills to the amount of between 14 and 15,0001. "ud Napoleon and other coins to a considerable amount. He was afterwards taken before Sir N. Conant, who, on discovering his relatives, ordered him to be placed under their care.— It appears, that he held a high appointment in the army, and that the unfavourable result of a Court:MarLial, in which he had been en- gaged, continues to prey upon hiv (oiad, SO all to came occasional Ocraii-emeut, Mr. Wliitbread has announced officially* that he and his associates in the brewiug lint had at length lowered Porter a penny per Pot.

A CHART OF CARNARVON BAR AND J HARBOUR. j Directions for Ships and Vessels Sailing into Car* narvon Harbour, over the Bar. In order to facilitate the navigation of this Har- bour, two Buoys are placed on the Bar, the ouler one is painted black, and the iuuer red; a Perch is also erected on the Bank, called the Muscle Bank. LLAWDOWYN Point lies about,2 miles distance from the black Buoy, (which is moored in the en- trance of the Bar, in about 15 feet water, at low water, average spring tides) in a N. by E. direc- tion. DIN AS DINI.LE lies from three, or from that to three and a half miles distance from the black Buoy, in a S. E. direction. The black Buoy lies about one mile distance from the red Buoy, in a S. W. by S.direction. The red Buoy lies about two, or from that to two and a quarter miles distance from the Perch, in a W. by N. direction. The Perch lies near one mile distance from Abermeuai, in a west direc- tion, where ships and vèssels may anchor in safety. Masters of vessels, drawing 12 feet water and upwards, should not (in a gale of wind) approach this Bar until four hours fbo1. All vessels coming in, should leave the Pereb on the larboard hand. High water at full and change, at a quarter af- ter nine o'clock—average spring ticks rise and fait on the Bar from 16 to 18 feet-neap ditto from 6 to 8 feet. Expert Pilots nidy always be had oa making the proper signal. This Harbour has been lately considerably en- larged and improved, a great number of large ves- sels are built here allllually-it is a most coavii. nient place for repairing of old ve,eis- there it aa extensive trade carried 011 in the exportation of stales (of the best quality) and other articles* to most parts of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and consists of convenient quays and wharfs, for the reception and safety of ships and vessels leading and unloading, or lyiug within the limits of this port. The Trusfees of this Harbour have expended from four to live hundred pounds in blasting some of the rocks at the Swillies, to low water mark, which ha" rendered a most free passage for ship and vessels of large burihen, coming- from the eastward to this Harbour, or sailing through the Straits of Menai.
