I CARDIGANSHIRE. I EDUCATION.—UPPER CARDIGANSHIRE. We copy from a recent publication an account of a visit to Borth School in connection with the church or national si-stern of education. The lines in italics de- scribing the anxiety of the young sailors to make up for the want of early education by snatching the opportunity of going to school for a few weeks while their vessels dis- charge and take in a fresh cargo, will be read no doubt with considerable interest. Together with the Misses Pritchard alluded to below, the name of the Rev. John Jones, vicar of Llanfihangel-geneur glyn, should be men- tioned as being indefatigable in promoting the interest of education in his parish. This school, again, owes its origin to the above-named charitable ladies, the Misses Pritchaid. Education has in them most zealous, intelligent, and liberal supporters. Borth ithdf is one of the most dreary, desolate places I ever saw. It is situated about six miles from Aberyst- with on the sea coast, and four miles from the mouth of the river Dovey, which separates the counties of Car- digan and Merioneth. It consequently is bounded on the west and south-west by the Irish sea, and on ail other sides, by an immense peat bog of stfrne thousand acres, which opens up to the-North Wales mountains. During my visit, the wind coming direct from these snow-clad mountain tops, materially increased the bleak dreariness of the scene. The inhabitants are, of course, miserably poor troops of them may be seen a little before sunset crossing that desolate bog with a large basket of peat at their back, the only fuel they ever see, and I must say, their appearance excited in my mind the strongest feelings of sympathy and comnnsseration. "I have mentioned these circumstances, in order to place in as strong a light as I possibly could, the sheer disinterestedness of the Misses Pritchard, and the very great value of their benefaction. Poor in outward cir- cumstances, the inhabitants might have remained in a state of benighted ignorance, more degrading to the mind, and more prejudicial to the well-being of the body, than almost any external calamity, had it not been for the generosity and chi istian kindness of these ladies. But, poor as they are, the people of Borth are fully alive to the importance of education, To be sure, Borth, like many other places, swarms with children, and there would be therefore no difficulty in filling the school, even if the parents did not care for the instruc- tion, and only sent their children in order to get them out of the way but I ground my assertion more upon the character, age, and condition of the scholars, than upon the number present. Tltefirst class consists of 42 scholars, a larae proportion of whom ate youths Wiio have been to sea, and who, as soon us they yet on land, seize the opportunity of going to school fot alew xcceks, while their vessel discharges and takes in a jiesh cargo, or who get no nautical occupation dining the winter months. These young men, of from 18 to 20 years of age. I found ranged alongside of ordinary school cltildt-eiz the former mixing in the emulation, of the class, and taking plates with as much zest as the latter; each party co>- rsctiny and being corrected in turn by the other. The system works harmoniously and well in this case but I fancy under a master who is such a disciplinarian as the present man it could not do otherwise. The schoolroom, though a very good one, is hardly equal to that at Penparke. It is licensed for public worship, and the benches are made to suit the conve- nience of the congregation, by which means the busi- ness and comfort of the school are interfered with. There is a good play-ground surrounded by a stone wall, which was built at the sole expense of the two ladies to whom I have so often referred. The master is not wanting in in'elligence and ability, and seems to be doing good. His salary is 1:25 per annum, and he has a wife and 7 children. Every one con- nected with the school has said to me, Is there no means of getting him a few pounds a year in addition to this meagre pittance Bottori's Charity Trustees, St. David's Church Union, and about four subscribers make up this sum. 11 1 fear ttiere is no possible hope of his passing the Government examination. In reply to my asking him if he did not think some of them could pay a penny per week, he said, Oh, no, Sir, there is a penny a week on them (i.e., they are expected to pay a penny); but I can never get more than 9 or 10, or from that to 20 a-week." This, it is to be understood, is included in he E25, and there is no house attached. I must again state my conviction, that something should be done to meet cases of this kind, which are by no means uncommon in Wales." ABERYSTWITII COUNTY CounT. Yesterday, at II o'clock a. ni., A. J. Johnes, Esq., Judge of the above Court, entered the Town Hall, and proceeded to hear plaints. The number set down for hearing this month is unusually great (nearly 130), though there are none of great importance. There was a jury case to come on yes'erday morning, but it was adjourned for a month—there being a disposition in the parties to refer the matter in dispute, to arbitration. This being intimated to the judge by the solicitors of the parties, Mr. F. R. Roberts and .Mr. \Vi!!ou_;hby Miller, His HOllour ordered the plaint to stand over accord- ingly. In the course of the morning, Jel n^er S)- mollS, Esq., the ^Government Education Comti i sioncv, who has been for some time resident at Aberystwith, sat with the JUIIge, papng great attention to the busine s Of the court. CAKDIGAN.—On Whit Monday, the scholars of the Sunday schools in connection with the chapels of differ- ent denominations had their usual holiday, and it was evident from the eager countenances of the young- sters that all had been in full expectation of th.s annual pleasure. The diflerent schoo.s consequently assembled^ Jn considerable numbers, and formed a n e-si' A Tea Meeting for the h:nef1t of the children of 3 the Sunday school connected w.th the con- '?re?ati-.n of the Hope Chapel was held in the evening at ?at.?ce There was a Very COIIII)',Illy, ati?l greatis (l,le tk) tile (es'occiAuv uie ladies conn.c.ed wi.h the schoo). for turn troupe u preparing tea, plum cake, tea-cake, &c., &-C., NN. lich if we could judge from the happy and cheerful counte- nances of about :270 visitors, gave general satisfaction, I At the conclusion of the repast, the Rev. Daniel Davies was unanimously elected chairman, and expressed the great satisfaction he had at meeting them, and at the I proof they gave of their desire to promote the interests of Sunday schools. I'-c rev. gentleman stated that similar meetings were nothing uncommon or new, that 50 years ago he had the pleasuie of attending a meet- ing which was presided over by that honored and worthy man, the late Rev. Matthew Wilks — since which pet iod,simitar assemblages had hern, and were still constantly increasing. Mr. 1. Lloyd m a very agreeable and lucid address gave the meeting a most interesting account of his own experience of the benefits of Sunday schools; he stated that in the course of between 40 and 50 years' experience, lie had uniformly found that the establishment of Sunday Schools was an increasing blessing to the locality in which they existed, and mentioned instances of individuals holding high !lud hOllorable situations who acknowledged that theii first impressions of truth and piety wcre received in the Sabbath schools.—The Itev.Natlianiet Thomas, Baptist minister, next addressed the meeting, and said that he had been both a Sunday school scholar and teacher, and had ever felt great interest in Sabbath schools, as he fully considered them when properly conducted, to be nurseries of the churcll of God. He added, that men of the tiist talent of the day. men, the most de. voted in the work of the ministry, had originally been connect, uit i Sunday schools. The rev. gentleman concluded all able address by energetically urging the Sunday school teachers to rehewed exertions, and point- ing out the necessity for untiring efforts to improve, as the work was honourable here and hereafter, and of a nature to obtain the approbation of the religious world The Rev Mr. Ilanc ock, of Hope Chapel, begged on behalf of the meeting, to return thanks to the ladies who had so greatly exerted themselves to promote the meeting, and hoped a similar duty would devolve upon him on many future occasions. A vote of thanks having been accorded to the chairman, the meeting joined in prayer, and after singing a hymn, separated with evident general satisfaction. VV "<

GLAMORGANSHIRE. Ni.ATII.-On Whit Monday, the Sunday Schools connected with the diffrrellt Chapels met according to annual custom in the market place, whence they pro- cei lied through several streets, each school headed by its n.iiiisier and the teachers, when they returned-(the Welsh poitiou to the Zoar Independent cliapel-and the Eoxiii>h portion to the English Baptist Chapel, near the town), and addresses were delivered by different ministers connected with the neighbourhood. There were nearly 2,000 children present, all of whom were cleanly and respectably dressed, and the entire proceed. ings passed off pleasantly. Mr. Ithind, Deputation from the Cambrian Deaf and Dumb Institution attended in the Town Hall, at Neath, on Monday night, R. P. Leyshon, Esq mayor, in the chair. There was a very respectable audience. Collec- tions were made at the close of Mr. Rhind's address. CiioLiutA AT ABKKDUI.AIS.—Three cases occurred hc-re oil Sunday, two were men working on the railway, and one woman, all of which proved fatal in a few hours. One person also died on Monday morning, making seven since the previous Monday. Another case transpirpd on Tuesday, and the person attacked is not expelled to survive. I ABERDARE.—IMPIOUS PRACTICES OF THE LATTEII- DAY SAINTS. -Ai inquest was held on the 19th ult., at the Black Lion Inn, Aberdare, on view of the body of John Pugh, collier, also a preacher in connection with the Latter-day Saints. In the late explosion at the Wyrfa Colliery, the deceased was much burnt, but per- sisted in refusing surgical aid, alleging that his faith" was sufficient. The following is an outline of the pro- (:e((Iii,s :-Geot-ge liosser proved, that on the day the explosion occurred, he and the deceased were in the Wyrfa Culiiery and in his absence the deceased went with a naked lighted candle into the part where he had been told not to go. Immediately an explosion took place. He and deceased were much burnt. Deceased was subsequently seen by witness, but positively refused to have a surgeon's services, preferring the aid of one James Jones, atias" Jim Pontypool." — Eleanor Pugh, widow of deceased, said that James Jones diessed his burns daily. Mr. Evans, surgeon, offered his services but deceased declined them, saying that if his faith should prove too weak to enable him to be cured, then he would call in Mr. Evans. He was then quite sane. On a subsequent occasion Mr. Evans declined giving witness any oil for her husband's bums, unless she would discard all the saints." Mr. Sims, an elder, administered the ordinances of the "church" to deceased as soon as he was brought home after sustaining the injury. A flask of the" blessed oil" was brought a shilling's wurth with which deceased was anointed after which Mr. Sims placed his hands on deceased, and prayed. "If my husband's faith had been strong enough (said witness) he would have been cured instaiitly. James Jones, alias "Jim Pontypool," was called. He informed the court that he was a saint!" According to the saints' creed their members should rely on the ordinances of the church" for cure in all cases. Had it not been for the wea]wcss of deceased's faith he would have been cured immediately -William Sims, a saint" and an elder," allliulltcJ deceased's death to want of faith." Witness then added—" I most solemnly declare that it all the jlesÍt was burnt oJf my hand this moment that my blessings would cure it at once I Had John Pugh's faith been good, I could have cured Ititit.iNIr. E\ans, surgeon, pro\ed that his services were declined,—de- ceased preferred relying on the ordinances of the church. Deceased might have recovered if L]4e proper remedies had been applied to his wounds.—The jury returned the following verdict.: That John Pugh died from the effects of an explosion of lire-damp at Wyrfa Colliery, May 18th, and the culpable neglect of his attendants, who were members of a certain society, called the Latter Day Saints," in refusing to permit a medical gentleman to attend to his cure. The jurors, in the strongest language, censured the conduct of these de- luded people, and cautioned them not to repeat their foolish practices.—The coroner then said that the verdict was a merciful one. He fully expected to have had to commit several of them for manslaughter.

BLILIII. A melancholy and rather singular instance of sudden death,occurred last week at the village of Llangammarch, a few miles distant. A quarrel and fight or scufilc having followed the merry-making at a wedding, some young man was thrown down and reported to be seriously injured, which statement so affected a poor woman whose son was present but not in the fray, from her fear that he was the sufferer, that she fell down speechless and almost immediately expired. BUILTII. — (From a Correspondent.)—This "spirited little place," to the inaminate features of which, at least, Nature has been lavish of her gifts, follows the Spirit of the Age" in very high stile—or rather stiles -that is, it has seemed good to the high authorities, the powers that be," to erect barricades (start not, peace-loving reader!) in the shapes of most uncouth stiles, across two or three pleasant shady paths, crossing the churchyard and saving some distance to pedestrians axamples of which are seen in Kington, Ross, Hereford, and numerous towns, quite as conservative of their dead as Builth. Here all female visitors weak or robust, are compelled to clamber over bars, the topmost of which, if not of Norwegian pine,—fit for the mast of some great admiral"—is at least, big enough for that of a small fishing smack,—or to wade their way all round the barriers, by a very dirty lane. Beside these female ordeals, (not so cruel quite as those of red hot bars, but quite as worth), of the Dark Ages) are seen lounging the elite of the Order Blackguard," (every town boasts its few) on purpose to enjoy the embarrassment of ladies, strangers to the gallantry of the" improving little place," on coining to a dead stand before one of these dirty barricades, requiring them to attitudinise in the highest Danseuse fashion, before that grinning assembly, or (unless they are blest with all the brass of Opera virgins) retreat in confusion. Nor is this all. Repeatedly some filthy biped of the said order has amused himself by bedaubing the enormous crosspole in such a manner, that after dark, no one with even the instinctive cleanliness of a brute, can venture to mount! And this abominable nuisance, in a town much dependent on genteel visitors to the Wells, deterring as it is, is persisted in, on the pretext— (visum tei>eatisf oh reader of decency!) of excluding the pigs As the town enjoys now a Mechanics Institute, let us hope that the mechanics thereof, or rather the parish-authorities, will, in time, learn how to exclude pigs without excluding women from one of the attractions of a finely-situated and salubrious place of resort for invalids.

LATEST NEWS. LODON, WEDNESDAY. RETURN OF THE COURT TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE. -The Queen, Prince Albert, and the Court embarked on board the Fairy on Wednesday from Osborne for the Clarence-yard, and returned to London by the South- western Railway. The directors of the London, Bristol, and South Wales Direct Railway" scheme (long since defunct) announce a final dividend of sixpence per share. From the evidence taken before the committee of the House of Lords on the audit of Iailway accounts, the disclosures that have recently taken place have lessened the market value of the York, Newcastle, and Berwick, within the last two months, to the extent of 1:3,000,000, or equal to one-third of its share capital. DUBLIN, TUESDA Yo Cholera, though not to any great extent, has broken out among the troops stationed in Ship-street Barracks, adjoining to the Castle-yard, The situation of the buildings is close and unwholesome. The 2nd, the Queen's Regiment of Foot, which occupied the barracks when the disease appeared, were this day placed under canvass, a camp having been formed in Phoenix Park. MARRIAGE OF THE COUNT DE MONTEMOI.IN.—We are enabled to state that a marriage of more than common interest even in a political point of view has been agreed upon between a fair country woman of our own and one of the Royal personages who have had occasion to seek refuge in Great Britain. The Count de Monteuiolin has offered his hand to Miss de Horsey, the accomplished daughter of Spencer de Horsey, Esq., and the marriage will shortly be solemnized in this country. It is understood that a negotiation has been opened by the Prince with the Government of the Queen of Spain, which has consented to make an adequate provision for his Royal Highness and his bride, in con- sideration of the renunciation of the claims to the throne of the male line, of which the Count de Monte- molin is the representative.— Times. FuANCE. — The Pi estdents and Secretarians nominated for the standing committees in the new Legislative Assembly of France exhibit a majority of 12 belonging to the moderate party out of lo. The pro. tem. Pre- sident, M. Keratry, has soon found himself in hot water with the Montagnaids, for Monday's sitting did not terminate before the latter complained of the President's conduct in surroundiu the Assembly Iyilh troops, for the purpose of intimidating its members. The Assem- bly then adjourned. Shortly afterwards some alarm was created by a report that between 1*300 and 1600 men were marching to the Legislative Chamber. The troops were instantly recalled, and several arrests were made. One of the persons apprehended had a considerable sum of money in his pockets, and also two pistols. The Mountain representatives have formed themselves into a club, in which all important political questions are to be discussed. A Socialist banquet took place on Monday at the barrier Poissonniere, at which about 1500 attended, including both sexes. Just as the company were about taking their seats, a Commissary of Police made his appearance, and intimated his intention to continue a visitor of their proceedings. The comittee denitd the right of the functionary's presence, and demanded that he should instantly retire. The Commissary remon- strated against the unlawful opposition which had been raised to his authority, and informed the guests that he would withdraw only to return with a force which should compel obedience to his commands. In the interval the repast was rapidly devoured, and the toasts in the course of being drunk, when the Commissary re-appeared, backed by a strong detachment of troops. The sight of the military soon damped the rebellious spirits of these Socialist orators; for after a brief consultation, it was agreed that the meeting should be broken up, which was instantly carried into execution. At the sitting of the Assembly on Tuesday, there was no appearance of agitation, and few persons were collecte d together out- side the Chamber. The military were in strong force, and therefore any attempt at disturbance could be spee- dily suppressed. The President having taken the chair, M. Lnndophe blamed M. Keratry for not having pro- claimed the Republic at its ifrst sitting, which he should have done according to established usage. To repair this omission of duty, he invited the members to join in one universal shout of Vive la Republique The Left rose c't masse, and responded to the call but the Right only partially replied to the invitation. This "ave great offence to the Left, who upbraided the Right for the lukewarmness they had exhibited. A bear-garden scene followed which defies description. The l'iesident said he would put the order of the day, in which he was supported by a vast majority of the. hotis-e when M. Baurn objected, and looking contemptuously in the face of the President, impertinently told him that he had yet to learn republican manners, and was not to conduct himself as if under a monarchy. Confusion still greater, if possible, here arose, the clamour of the several parties contending for the mastery. Amidst the wild uproar, the President insisted upon putting the order of the day to the vote, which he declared carried by a large majority. The Assembly then pro- ceeded to the verification of the election returns. Nothing further was known of the new Cabinet. RUSSIA.—Accounts from Vienna of the 25tli instant, state that the Russian fleet off Funen had caused con- siderable anxiety as to the part the Czar "ai about to play in the hostilities between Denmark and Germany.

TRADE AND MONEY MATTERS. I I [From the Worcestershire Chronicle.] I The symptoms of an improvement in trade are percep- tible at Manchester, and the commercial advices from India and China have given much satisfaction. Full prices are accordingly being paid for goods suitable for the eastern market. As to cotton, the prevailing feeling is that the price of the raw material is higher than it ought to be, considering the large imports into Liverpool, the accumulation of stock, and the liberal estimate which is now made of last year' s crop. At Leicester the turn-out of the glove trade still continues. We are glad to hear that the great bulk of the work- men in the iron districts of the north of this county and South Staffordshire are quietly acceding to the reduc- tion in wages consequent upon the fall in the price of iron. A parliamentary document has just been published which shows the value of the exports and imports of metallic manufactures from 1810 to 1818, both inclu- sive and ltunishes another triumphant refutation of the fallacious and worn-out arguments of the Protec- tionists. The influence of the reduced scale of duties introduced by Sir Robert Peel's revision of the tariff is found to have resulted not meiely and solely in an increased value of imports (as was at first feared) but in a gradual and steady increase of exports. Look- ing to the returns of 1843—the first year after the most important revision of the tariff-the imports of metal- lic manufactures increased in value to the amount of only E4,000 in 1844, 13,000 in 1846, 1:11,000. The exports of brass, copper, and hardware and cutlery, have increased from the period above mentioned, upwards of two millions in value in the aggregate & the total value 0 t"'I of the increase of imports, as compared with that large amount, is so inconsiderable that no fears need be en- tertained of the foreign manufacturer underselling us in our own market. As our contemporary, the Birmingham Journal, observes :—" Let it be remembered in all future discussions on the subject that the entire value of articles in metallic manufacture imported is less than the transactions of one single firm of the hundred., in this town and district. This is an easily applied refu- tation of all platitudes about foreign competition." The stripping of the oaks in Dean Forest is nearly completed. The weather having beenpropitiaus, the bark appears to be in good condition. We are glad to say that the price is looking up, the last quotation being from E12 to JE:15 per load of -15 cwt. A Leeds contemporary, alluding to the plate glass trade, says it is very surprising to see the extensive use made of this real luxury since the iron hand of the excise has been taken off its manufacture. It is within com- pass to assert, if Manchester be taken as the standard, that there is an inciease in the consumption, within these last three years, of fifty-fold. The price is now so remarkably moderate, that the consumption may be calculated upon in a manner never contemplated by any one; for instance, as to price, it will be sufficient to show the strong inducement to its use. A pane of glass for an ordinary house window may now be had for Is. SJ. superficial foot, or only about "5 per cent. mure than was usually charged for a pane of the common window glass. TIIE MARTIN ESTATE.—We understand that Lord Ducie and several active and intelligent persons in Lon- don are endeavouring to raise a Joint Stock Company, for the purchase of the famous Martin Estate" in Galway, of 200,000 acres, iu order to carry out Sir R. Peel's idea. COUNTY COURTS. — We understand a memorial has been addressed to the Home-office by the County Court Judges, and that a deputation of them has waited upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer, complaining of their salaries having been permanently fixed at £ 1,000 a-year—a sum, they say, quite incommensurate with the dignity, responsibility, labour, and usefulness of the ofifce. A BAILIFF HUNTING A CLERGYMAN.—In the Bail Court, on Saturday, an application was made under the following curious circumstances. An action was brought to recover possession of a chapel at Bath, of which the Rev. Henry Brougham William Ilillcoat was the minis- ter, and the affidavit of the person who had been em- ployed to serve the notice of ejectment on the reverend gentleman, set forth that every effort had been made to serve it upon him, but without success. On one Sunday evening during the present month, the officer attended service at Mr. Hillcoat's chapel. At the conclusion of the service, he followed the reverend gentleman to the house of the sexton, where he went in, and remained all night. The next morning he watched him out, and went up to him and informed him of the nature of the communication he had to make, but the defendant ran or), the deponent followed, and overtook him, and com- menced reading the notice of ejectment, but, being out of breath from his exertion, before he could get half through it the defendant again took to his legs. The deponent followed, and overtook the defendant a second time, but was again, from the same cause, unable to read the notice to him, and the defendant ran away. This occurred several times, and the chase was kept up for a circuit of thirty miles, when both the oiffcer and defendant found themselves in Bath, from which they had started. Here defendant entered the house of a friend, and, on the deponent attempting to follow him, he was stopped, and threatened with an action for tres- pass. And the affidavit concluded by stating that the deponent had not succeeded in serving it up to this time. —Mr. Justice Wightniaii Yiiu may take a rule to show cause. — Mr Phinn said lie did not know how the plain- tiff would be able to serve the defendant with the rule. —Mr. Justice Wightman: On your making an affidavit that you do not know his place of residence, but that he sleeps at a particular house, you must try and serve him there and affix the notice upon the doors of the chapel. —Rule granted. FATAL CONFLICT IN LIMERICK.—-A fatal conflict took place on Monday at Hospital, in the county of Limerick. It appears that a mob broke open the pound at that place and released some cattle, distrained under civil bill decrees. A conflict with the police ensued, when a man named Connor was stabbed to the heart. Several of the police were wounded by stones flung at them. BRISTOL SeGAll MARKET, MAY 30.-The sales of ;N l ?y 30.-The sa l es of this week are between 300 and 400 hogsheads, princi- pally Barbadoes of the last arrivals, which have been taken with great spirit by the trade, at prices varying from 39s. for low- middlin" to 43s. for biie.-Bi-istol Gazette. ° THE GERMAN PARLIAMENT.—A most disgraceful scene occurred in the Frankfort Parliament on the 2Gth inst. M. Wolf, an ultra-radical member, in speaking upon the motion for a proclamation to be addressed to the German people, condemned the draft read as being too wea k and worthless for him. To talk to the people of legality, he said, was nonsense it was high time to preach illegality. The German people must be called upon to march against the Russians, the Prussians, the Hanoverians, the Bavarians, and the Austrians, for ali these crowned rebels had thrown off their disguise. [ This parliament, too, ought at once to outlaw the Arch- duke s Administrator, for he was an arch-traitor to their cause. The Speaker here called M. Wolf to order, who replied that he did not care for the call to order, for lie intended to be out of order." The indignant shouts of the Assembly were here uttered against the gross ue- haviour of the refractoiy member; but he heedlessly continued to give vent to exclamations and invectives, but they were met by the Assembly with the most signal marks of disgust and contempt. After a short discus- sion on the order of the dav the house adjourned to Tuesday, the 29th instant. Good intentions will never justify evil action* nor will good actions ever justify evil intentiuns,- A truly good memory is only forgetful of injuries.

I TO THE EDITOR OF THE WELSHMAN. } I Silt, I venture to ask yon to allow me to call the attention of the authorities to the dangerous condition of the bridge over the Brennig, at Llanddewi-brefi, which is a disgrace to the county, being only one narrow plank over a pool 9 feet deep, and without "even a hand-rail joined to it for the safety of passengers. In the course of the last year, from time to time, no less than seven persons had very narrow escapes from drowning by falling off the bridge.
