In the present age of adulteras r tions and shams, w hen so many spurious and inferior Wines and Spirits are shipped to thie country, it requires all the skill and knowledge of old and experienced Wine Merchants, in th- selection of Stocks, to ensure purity and good quality, combined with buying at the places of production from first hands, and attending personally to all the details of the Business, and ,J: consumers should look to the respectability, and the established reputation of the Wine and Spirit Merchant with whom they do business, as a guarantee that what they buy is of the best quality, and at the cheapest rates. The far-famed choice OLD IRISH WHISKEY of special character and age, which has ten been so long known throughout the country for its perfect purity, and wholesomeness, as well 'A as for its being an excellent and invaluable stimulant, is still supplied at 18s. per Gallon, or 36s. per doz. Bottles, containing two Gallons. His Stock of WINES AND SPIRITS, consisting of some very rare Old Scotch Whiskey, Martell's and Hennessy's Pale and Brown Brandies, Nicholson's celebrated London Gin, J. de-Kuyper's Hollands, Old Jamaica Rums, Ports and Sherries of approved vintages, Champagne, Sparkling Moselle, Hock, Clarets, Marsala, &c., &c., is extensive, and in quality and flavour, such as cannot be surpassed, and must give satisfaction.

1-THE HAVERFORDWEST UNION.…
1- THE HAVERFORDWEST UNION. At the present moment the Guardians of the Haverfordwest Union, are greatly exer- cised on one or two important points con- nected with their administrative duties; points which demand great sagacity and mature con- sideration, in order to avoid blundering which would be practically irremediable if once committed. It will be in the recollection of our readers, that some few months back, the Poor Law Inspector condemned the present Work- house as affording insufficient accommodation, and the result was a request from head-quar- ters th&t the Board of Guardians should at once submit plans and specifications for the en- largement of the premises to a suitable dimension. When the subject came on for discussion, several of the guardians expressed a strong opinion that the time had arrived to consider the advisability of forming a sepa- rate Union out of the North Pembrokeshire parishes. This suggestion however was laid aside as impracticable at the present moment, so that the issue was reduced to an immediate extension of the existing House with the alternative of boarding-out the juvenile in- mates. And thus the matter stands to-day. The objection of course to the scheme directed by the central authority is its ex- pense, and a very reasonable objection too it appears on the surface. That of late years pauperism in this district has increased out of all proportion to the population, is a sim- ple, unvarnished, and extremely unpleasant fact. A variety of genuine causes may have contributed to bring about this unhappy con- dition of things, but we greatly fear that in some instances-and not isolated ones either -suiffcient discretion has not been exercised in the selection of recipients for outdoor re- lief. We need not repeat the remarks we have previously made on this aspect of our parochial system. The main difficulty just now lies in a satisfactory solution of the pro- blem of dealing with an overflow of indoor paupers. It is evident that an increase in the burden on the shoulders of the ratepayers must ensue, however the moot point may be decided. Undoubtedly the further exten- sion of the house would cost more than the other alternative. And for this reason, a considerable proportion of those whose aim and desire is to keep down the rates, are vigorously opposed to the scheme. The only way out of this is to have recourse to the sys item of boarding-out the children. To this, the objections are not so sentimental as they seem at-first sight to be. Since juvenile paupers have to be cared for, it becomes a wise as well as a just policy to see that they are well cared for. That this is so under the present house regime, admits of no question. Would it be so, if the children were to be boarded out? Emphatically ,• no! We speak within our knowledge of the abuses of which the practice is capable of being put to. Those people who would be the most ready to enter into such a contract with the guardians, are just the very last in the world to whose tender mercies, unfortunate childhood should be handed over. On one side the guardians would consider it their duty to make the boat terms they could as the representatives of the ratepayers; whilst on the other hand, there would be a determination on the part of those who took in the children, to make something out of the bargain one way or another. Is it needful to ask- who would bp the sufferers under such conditions? Unhappily there are some folks even within the radius of the Haverfordwest Union who cling to the belief that any treatment is good enough for a pauper. To such distorted natures, poverty is the one unpardonable sin, and they would fain arrogate to themselves the Divine right of visiting the sins of the fathers upon the children, from one generation to another. Corporations are said to possess no con- sciences, and by the same token, Boards of Guardians are generally exempt from any display of tender feeling. Why should this be so ? At the risk of being thought unduly sentimental we maintain that as poverty may overtake any member of the community, it is our duty individually and collectively to alleviate its pangs as much as lies in our power. There is a vast space between commu- nism and the oppression of the poor and needy. We can give the latter a wide berth, without at all running foul of the former. As regards the particular case in point, the guardians of this Union will soon have to decide. The most sensible-and in the end the most economical—plan, will be to set about enlarging their borders, with as strict a regard to expenditure as possible. If this is done, no ratepayer at all amenable to rea- son, can complain.
IMPROVED RAILWAY COMMUNICATION.
IMPROVED RAILWAY COMMUNICATION. In our issue of the 27th December last, we published a synopsis of the judgment de. livered by the Court of Queen's Bench in the case of the Central Wales and Carmarthen Junction Railway Company v. the Great Western and London and North Western Railway Companies. The point at issue was whether the Central Wales Railway-not having either terminus on their own line- was entitled to a through rate between Chester and Haverfordwest. The case for the Court was stated by the Railway Commissioners, and judgment was given in favour of the Central Wales Company on both points, viz., That the traffic in respect of which the through rate was required, although com- mencing and ending at stations off the appli- cants' line, was through traffic within the meaning of the section. Further that the applicant company was a company which was entitled to require a through route and rate." This judgment was in effect, just a confirma- tion of the course which the Railway Com- missioners had themselves adopted in the matter, and it is of far greater importance than appears at first sight. Apart om its immediate effect upon this neighbourhood, and the public convenience attendant upon its adoption, there is the higher consideration that an important principle has been re- cognised. Formerly it was assumed that a powerful railway company had the public, so to speak, in its own hands, and could make its arrangements to suit its own ends solely, without the least regard to the exigencies of general commerce. It would be difficult to find a district where the hardships of this policy have been more severely felt, than our own. The area west of Carmarthen town has, all this while, been entirely at th6 mercy of two powerful companies, from whom it was next to impossible to wring anything like re- form, and whose concessions such as they were-have been the result of a jealous rivalry rather than a desire to consult public interests or the demands of the age. We are therefore disposed to think that great credit is due to the Central Wales Railway Company for the persistency and courage with which they followed up their point to so successful an issue. It is to be hoped that other local companies in like circumstances will take im- mediate advantage of this highly important, initiatory step in railway reform. As regards the new route from Haverfordwest, it will be seen at a glance at the subjoined tables, that the saving in point of distance is very con- siderable indeed. Take the journey to Leeds for instance, that being the most remote from us. To reach it at present, via the Great Western Railway, we have to travel a distance of 294 miles. But the proposed new route, via the Central Wales, will accomplish the journey in 237 miles, or a clear saving of 57 miles. It will be seen that a proportionate saving will affect the other towns named in the table, with a corresponding decrease in the amount of the fares. The table will be found in our third page.

It is needless to say that the good things were thoroughly enjoyed, and if the kind donor had been present to have seen the look of gratification on the faces of the company, and to have heard the grate- ful expressions that were uttered, he would have felt that his seasonable gift was universally appreciated. In the evening several ladies and gentlemen from the town, thinking it a fitting occasion, gave an im. promptu concert to the inmates. When the names of Miss Amy Williams, Miss B. Roberts, fthe Misses Stannard, the Misses James and Evans, the Crescent, Miss Mathews, Mr Walter Vaughan, Mr Reynolds, Mr Thomas, and others are mentioned among those who assisted at the concert, it is needless to say more.

HAVERFORDWEST TOWN CouNciL. An adjourned meeting of the council was held at the Council Chamber, on Friday evening, when there were present:—The mayor (Mr W.

Propert Williams, Michael White, and Samuel Thomas.—The report of the gas committee was read and adopted, and ehequea signed for Y,181 58 Id, being the aggregate amount of vari- ous accounts recommended to be paid. A discussion took place on the financial position of this branch of the corporation—affairs which had been gradually drifting deeper into debt-and some of the members expressed themselves strongly on the point. The disoussion ended in a resolution to the effect that the finance committee should meet on that day week to investigate the matter and report thereon. An offer of Messrs Bird and Son, of Cardiff, of lid., per gallon for the sulphur tat was accepted for the present year. —The Town Clerk reported that on the 21st Decem- ber last the market tolls had been let by auction, with the following results:—Lot 1, corn tolls, to Richard Harries, for JE27 lot 2, wool tolls, to Richard Harries, for L8 5s; lot 3, small tolls, to John Rogers, for !270; lot 4, weighing machine, John Harries, for C29 making together JE334 15s, being 92 158 less than last year.

It was stated by the town clerk tht he had beenin communication with Mr Cousins, C.E., SwanBeR) on tho sewerage question, and his assistant was now on- ■■ gaged on the work, taking levels, &a., WESLETAN TEA AND CONCERT.—On THURS- day evening last a tea meeting was field in the Wesleyan Schoolroom, the expense of which yas borne by the worthy mayor, William Farrow, Esq. The mayor's daughter, Mrs Payne, and Miss Cfrqen, managed the tea, which was a most successful aad en- joyable one; the tables being presided over by various ladies of the congregation. A large number øatdôn to tea, most of the churches and chapels being repre- sented. By eight o'clock the schoolroom was crowded for the concert, which took place under the presidency of the mayor and the Rev. Mr Little. The programme was an excellent one, and the concert proved to be one of a very high order. Miss Amy Williams, who is a most accomplished artiste, rendered her pieces in splendid style, and perfect finish, and elicited- the warmest applause. The other lady artiste, Miss Bella Roberts, who possesses a remarkably rich, powerful, and sweet voice, was also most successful in her performances, and sang her pieces with very great expression and taste, and was heartily applauded. The gentlemen vocalists also did their work well. The singing of Mr J. F. Brown was highly appre- ciated, and warmly received. The deep and rich tones of his excellent bass voice being especially heard to advantage in his last song, and the trio. Mr Edwin Thomas is an attraction and acquisition to any concert, and possesses more of the artistic qualities of A professional, than an amateur, and since last year his voice has considerably developed in power. Ms pieces were rendered with exquisite taste and finish, and have won for him the highest enlogiums. It is to be regretted that he does not reside entirely in the town. The instrumental part of the programme was very enjoyable, and the number of pieces judiciously limited. Pianoforte solos were played by Miss Mathew and Miss iiittle, (the daughter of the paator of the church) in a masterly and brilliant style. The duet by the Misses John and Owen was also played re- markably well, and in excellent time. The perfor- mance of these pieces was listened to with marked attention, and heartily applauded. It is, however, A matter of regret that some of the old familiar popular airs are so seldom played. Miss Brown and Mr Alban Brown were the accompanists, and performed their duties most efficiently. The arrangements were suc- cessfully carried out by the indefatigable and courteous secretary, Mr Meyler Thomas, whose useful and de. voted life is not only appreciated and valued by his own church, but also by all sects and clashes far and near. The proceeds are to be devoted to the chapel debt. Our Wesleyan friends are determined that the grass shall not grow under their feet in the matter of the heavy debt that encumbers them, and are en- deavouring to rid themselves of it in every way, possible, by tea*, concerts, weekly, and house to house collections, thanksgiving boxes, &c. We doubt pofc that true to their traditions, they will get out of T debt, and then get into it again. Subjoined is the pro- gramme:—Pianoforte duet, (selected) Misses John and. P, Owen; song, Dream faces," Mr Edwin J. Thomas" song, "The Kerrv dartoe Miss Am V Williams; song, "The diver," Mr J. F. Brown; duet, May.' ? ing," Miss Roberts and Mr Edwin Thomas piano- forte solo, "Killarney," Miss Mathew song. "Whe" the tide comes in," Miss Roberts; duet, L^ve and war," Messrs.
