BETHESDA. I LOCAL EISTEDDFOD. I This annual gathering was held in this town, as usual, on St. David's l)ay. The proceedings of the Eisteddfod were commenced on Tuesday night by a concert at the Market Hall, which was presided over by the Rev. John Evans, M. A., Maesygroes, the Rev. E. Stephens being the conductor. The following artistes took part in the proceedings, viz., Llew Llwyfo, Miss Kate Wynne, Miss M. Owen, Shiloh, Cyndeyrn, Garmonydd, and Eos Ogwen, who were ably accompanied on the pianoforte by Mr. It Ro- berts, Training College, Carnarvon,—Harp, Mr. John E. Davies, Bethesda. The Pennilliou singers were Hedydd Trefriw and Eos Mai. The Penrhyn Royal Brass Band also enlivened the audience with their heart-stirring me. lodies. Garmonydd was encored each time he sang Miss Kate Wynne was also exceedingly well received in all her songs, and her Peidiwch a dweyd wrth fy Nghariad," in Welsh costume, and her bobbing curtsies, created quite a furore. Miss Wynne also sang Gelert's Grave" with much taste and precision; her intonation being distinct and marked with a sympathetic expres- sion. The Solo on the pianoforte, by Mr. Roberts, wm capitally rendered. Llew Llwyfo, though affected with cold, did not fail to make an impression upon the au- dience, who, as usual, loudly applauded him through- out. The concert, in more senses than one, was a perfect siuccosa-tlio receipts at the door, this evening alone, be. ing upwards of £60. At one o'clock on St. David's Day a procession of Bards, Ovates, Minstrels, &c., was formed at Ty'ntwr Schoolroom, and proceeded through the town, and into the Market Hall, headed by the Brass Band. The Chairman (Rev. John Griffith, minister of Jeru- salem Chapel) was installed at the, sound of the trum- pet. An address having been read to him by Mr. HosØI Jones, The Chairman made some excellent remarks upon the advantage-commercially, morally, and religiously-to be derived from the cultivation of literature.

Edwards proved the case, and said the prisoner had on three or four occasions be- fore given him a great deal of trouble. In this instance he wanted to fight with a man named Rogers who he had had a dispute with. Evan Williams, charged by P.S. Edwards for riding on his cart at Llanllyfni, was fined 10s. and 12s. costs.

Edward Lloyd was charged with stealing a piece of rope and was sent to gaol for 14 days. He said he never went to gaol before for selling his own property, 1 and that he would never sell his own property again as long as he lived. lie is an old offender, though young in years, having been more than half his time in gaol for the last 6 or 7 years. PLOUGHING MATCH AT PARCIAU. This match, which was advertised to take place on the 21st ult., and was postponed owing to the state of the weather, came off on Tuesday last, in a field at Parkiau, belonging to Mr. Edward Humphreys, Royal Hotel, Carnarvon. The ground having been previously staked out, 17 teams were entered for competition, one of which was, however, withdrawn, as shall be presently explained. The ground, though pretty sharp, presented no special difficulties, and the weather, with the excep- tion of some heavy showers of rain towards the close, interfered but little with the day's proceedings. The "commander-in-chief" (Mr. E. Humphreys) was actively engaged for about an hour in completing the necessary arrangements preparatory to the commencement of operations. Shortly after ten o'clock the order to "start" was given, and the whole of the teams were seen in full motion, and closely criticised by a large concourse of spectators, from this and the adjoining county. Mr. .Howard, of Bedford, had on the ground one of his, champion wheel ploughs, but as the person entrusted with this implement had to leave by an early train, he was allowed to go through the process of showing his improved method of ploughing before the others com- menced. The following teams were in the field and entered for competition NO. OWNERS. PLOUGHMAN. 1 E. Humphreys, Parkiau .Rowld. Owen 2 W. Thomas, Pengelli W. Thomas 3 Evan Evans, Bryn Howel .E.

The first prize for the best team was given to Mr. W. Dew 2nd ditto (lOs.) to Mr. W. Jones, Rhosdican; 3rd ditto (5s.), Mr. John Rae. Mr. Humphreys exhibited in his farm yard a very creaitable selection of implements from the best makers, including patent wheel ploughs, horse rakes, hay-makers, improved flexible harrow, turnip and chaff cutters, &c., &c. Luncheon was liberally provided at the farm-house, which was visited by a large number ol people in the course of the day. The proceedings terminated" ith cheers for the judges, Mr. Humphreys, ploughmen, &c.

HOLYHEAD. At the half-yearly meeting of the Shareholders of the London and North Western Railway, held last Friday week, the chairman (Mr. Moon) said in reply to Mr. Beloe's query:—"With respect to Mr. Beloe's question regarding the Irish Mail Service, there were three par- ties to the agreement-the Postmaster-General, the City of Dublin Company, and the Londonand North-Western Company and the agreement had three parts relating to the land service, the pier service, and the performance of the sea service. It was rather a sore subject, for the Government had not fulfilled what they undertook to do in their works at Holyhead, but the railway company had performed what they undertook, though it had been at great cost, and a strain on the whole system. They therefore thought they had been hardly used, as they thought the complaints were not pertinent to them. They had nothing to do with the performance of the sea service, which belonged entirely to the City of Dublin Company." SKRIOUS AccrnENTS.—On I uesday last, Henry Evans, eighteen years old, a stoker on railway engines, had the forepart of his foot cut off, by the wheel of an engine running over it. J 1I,t above the fore-wheel of these engines, there is a box holding sand, which runs through a tube on the rail below to prevent the slipping of the wheel. It being the duty of the stoker on these engines to take charge of the said sand tube, H. Evans finding that the sand had so clustered at the mouth of the pipe, that it had stopped running, attempted to help it by reaching his foot to the mouth of the tube. While do- ingV.j, the wheel caught his foot, went over it, and cut it so that it must, in all probability, be amputated at a part higher up. On the same day, Richard Williams, 21 years old, a breakaman on an engine working in the Old Harbour Works, as he attempted to disjoin an empty waggon from others in the train, accidentally fell between the two last, and was very seriously inj ured in the head, the back and the limbs, by the wheel running over him, He is now lying up at the Hospital, where, undoubtedly, he will receive every attention from the medical officer of the Works. On Wednesday, a son of John Hughes, Caemorgan, a lad of 14 to 15 years old. fell from the top of the sea wall now being constructed in the Old Harbour. The injury he sustained by the fall of so many yards, was not ascertained before the post left town.

DENBIGH. THE FREB READING ROOM,—Mr. Simpson, manager of the Rhyl and Liverpool steamers, kindly gave apopu- lar entertainment, entitled Old Songs and New," at the Town Hall, on Tuesday evening last, in aid of the Free Reading Room Fund. A. g. Tumour, Esq., M.D pre- sided. There were also present Mr. and Mrs. Mainwar- inE Galltfaenau Mrs. Mostyn, Segrwyd Mr. and Mrs. Gold Edwards; Mr. and Irs. Smith, V.C.R.; and other respectable of the town and neighbourhoed. A goodly number of songs were most ably sung, interspersed with anecdotes of a very amusing and instructing character. In fact, the entertainment altogether was heartily en- joyed and deservedly appreciated. Should Mr. Simpson make a second appearance in Denbigh, in the same ca- pacity as on Tuesday evening, we can safely predict that he will obtain an over-crowded audience. VALE OF CLWYD RAILWAY. The ordinary half-yearly general me«ting of the Vale of Clwyd Railway Company was held at the Denbigh Statiou oil Monday last. Present :-Jas. Bancroft, Esq., Chairman; Capt. Thomas, Vice-Chairman H. Crosfield, Esq., Liverpool; T. Mainwaring, Esq., M.P. J. Spier Hughes, Esq, Llaniwst; W. Parry, Esq., Denbigh; M. Smith, I'.sq., Secretary and Manager; H. Lee, Esq., Bangor, Engineer It. Williams, Esq., Denbigh, Local Secretary; T. Kyffin Roberts, Esq., Auditor; Dr. Roberts, St. Asaph, &c. REPOHT OF THE DIRECTORS. The accounts having been made up and audited ex ililit the followiug results jg s. d. Income from all sources, including the receipt under the Agreement with the T.on.lon aud North Western Railway Company 6,105 13 11 Colill):Il)y ??o 0 9 Ex peii(littire 3,258 0 9 X2,847 13 2 The surplus balance on 30th June was 9 15 7 X2,857 8 9 Out of which the charges for Interest aud Preferential Dividend ainoutitto 1,338 14 5 Leaving an available balance of £ 1,51 S 14 4 The Directors recommend a dividend of X5 per cent per annum on the ordinary hare capital, to be paid on the 1st proximo, leaving a balance of £18 1484<1. to be carried forward to the credit of the current half year. The Directors regret that the Foryd Extension'is not yet so far completed as to enable then to obtain the Certifieate of the Board of Trade for its opening. This is owing to the fact of some of the questions connected with the worki having been left to arbitration, which has led to considerable delay. Every effort is being made to bring the matter to a close. The Mold and Denbigh Junction Railway Company have a Bill in Parliament for extensions to Denbigh and Trefnant, in substitution of their present authorized Lines, effecting junctions with this Company's Line near Trefnant. And the Denbigh, Ruthin, and Corwen Company have a Bill for extension at Corwen, and for Running Powers over this Company's Line to Foryd, and thence over the London and North Western to Rhyl. These bills will require and receive the attention of the Board. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the above report, regretted that owing to the present state of farm- ing in this district and the difficulty experienced in ob. taining coals during the last half year, the receipts had not progressed so satisfactorily as the Directors could wish, but still they had kept up. He hoped that there would be improvement in these matters and that the next half-year's accounts would be of a more satisfactory character. The shareholders would see that two bill* were before Parliament which affected the Vale of Clwyd Railway Company, and it was important that these bills should be watched. He proposed that the necessary steps should be taken. (Hear, hear.) The Directors' report, (with a statement of account appended) was unanimously agreed to and a vote of thanks having been accorded to the Chairman, the meet- ing closed.

DOLGELLEY. I THill FIRST WHISTLE or THE IRON Hotisic.-Old Father Time unerringly brings every event-aukipicious or pernicious, good or evil-to pass. An enterprising Company have been long formed to construct a railway, fraught with unparalleled and in the opinion of many unsurmountable difficulties, connecting North and South Wales. Ingenious engineers and surveyors toiled pa. tiently to have the line pricked-the adventurous cou- 'tractor bravely undertook its completion. Sub-con- tractors and gangers, and after them the sturdy, sl, wart navvy laboured long to see the first locomotive in the wilds of Merionethshire. At last the Meirion" puffed along the Vale of Dysynne, as if nodding signi- ficantly to the old stage coaches that they wer* ere long to give place to their betters. It cam* to Llwyngwril, and was regularly opened; last year, operations were most spiritedly carried on to have the branch to Dol- gelley completed, and Saturday evening, the 18th ult. -a day that will be perpetually chronicled in the annals of this town as forming a new epoch in its history-the "Cardigan" triumphantly steamed up through the dan- gerous cutting of Alltffynonrydd, along the rocky and sterile bank of the winding Mawddach to Penmaenpool, Mr. Savin, the contractor, being with it. The Volun- teer band was in attendance, and the Cardigan" was ushered in amidst the deafening cheers of a numerous crowd who had atmblod to witness its arrival. Nearly all the spectators, including several of the leading gentry, among whom were W. Williams, Esq., Burgeon, G. Williams, Esq., R. N. Williams, Esq., Lewis Wil- liams, Esq., Bryntirion, Mr. J. Chidlaw Roberts, and Mr. E. Jones, Ship Hotel, and who accompanied Mr. Savin on the engine, were taken up to within a mile to the town, the band playing some of their best selection in honour of the occasion. Attached to the engine was a truck full of Ruabon coals for Mr. Jones, Ship Hotel, who thus clearly possesses the honour of reaping the first benfit of a railway among the people of this town. We must still give vent to our feelings by stating that we very much regret the unpleasant dispute which has stopped us to witness the "Cardigan," not where we did on Saturday evening week, but at the town. This is the alloy. Before long, however, in the face of all difficulties, the line will be completed to the town. The people of Dolgelley are loud in their praises of the Com- pany and Mr. Savin, as they have always been, and it is only proper but they should. There is also a great stir just now about the Dolgelley and Bala Railway. It is said that the line is to be commenced at once. AN INQUEST ON A CHILD FUUND DEAD I IN BED. On Friday, the 17th ult., the adjourned inquest upon the body of the illegitimate child found dead in bed with its mother at Brynrodyu, near this town, on Tuesday, the 24th of January, was resumed before G. J. Williams, Esq., corouer, and a respectable jury, when the following evidence was given and a verdict in ac- cordance thereto returned Catherine Jones, being sworn, said-I live at Twlly, hwbach and knonv Mary Pugh. She was in service at Brynrodyu. I was sent for by Mrs. Roberts, Brynrodyn, on a Tuesday morning some time ago. Went upstairs where Mary Pugh was in bed, but did not see her child. I told her she had given birth to a child, which she did not deny. I was in the room for a few minuts and was very much frightened. Went there again and told her I should send for her sister or father. Went there first between 9 and 10 a.m. I did not see the child at an Dr. Edivard Jones, Dolgelley, being sworn, atitl-l was called to Brynrodyn last Tuesday three weeks. Went there about 10 a.m., or a little after. I went to Mary Pugh, the servant, who I found in bed. She had given birth to a child. I saw the child, and it was the child viewed by the jury. She told me it was her child. It was a female. Am not aware that she is married, but believe sbe is not. I examined the chilli, who was in bed with her, It was folded up in an old dress at the head of the bed on the pillow, and she had not hid it. I examined the child carefully, and made a post mortem examination on the following day. Saw no marks of violence, and saw nothing in the internal organs to account for its death. The cord was not se- parated. Am of opinion that the child was born alive. I applied the hydrostatic test. Every portion ot the lungs were crepitating ami perfectly distended with air, which is a strong presumption that the child was born alive The florid colour of the skin also assisted me in the conclusion that the child was born alive. During life in the womb there is a communication existing be- tween the superior cavities of the heart; after respira- tion takes place this communication becomes closed. The partial closure of that communication proved to me that the child had breathed. The room was covered with blood. I am of opinion that the mother gave birth to the child out of bed. She told me so, I believe, that being in a weak state after the birth of the child, she could not have saved it by herself. I have no reason to believe that the deceased was suffocated. There was nothing more than a little redness on the nose, which may be accounted for by the child falling on that part during its birth. The mother told me she had not touched the child, meaning that she had done no harm to it. She could not tell me the time she gave birth to the child. She appeared very weak and ill, and ro- mained in bed about nine or ten days. I believe the child died from exposure to the cold and want of atten- tion. The room was a very cold oue, and it was also a most unusually cold night. The jury returned a verdict ac«ordingly.

FESTINIOG. I AMATFUlt CONCERT.—On Tuesday night, the 23th ult., the Festiniog Brass Bind and Choir gave concert in the Market Hall of the village. The baud was led by Mr. Dickson, band-master, and the choir by Mr. Robert Jones. It i-) bai-ely six months since the baud was form- ed, and the progress they have made in that time is most creditable to them and to their excellen t instruc- tor, Mr. Dickson, who has been most indefatigable in his exertions to train them. It is bot right to state that all the members are working. men-not one of them having had the advantage of a musical education. We have no doubt, if they persevere, that they will be, in time, second to nonein the Principality. The programme for the evening was selected with much care and taste, and it is gratifying to state that the playing and singiug gave thorough satisfaction to all present. The following pieces were loudly encored-" CynIVyd" (Band); Lime- rick Races" (ditto); "Harlech March and Harlech Hur- rah" (Choir) Uodlondeb" (ditto). The entertainment was altogether one of the most interesting we have had the pleasure of attending for a very long time. The Hall was crowded almost to suffocation. There was a large number of the gentry of the neighbourhood present. Among others we were glad to see the Rev. I). Edwards, Rector of the parish; George Casson, Esq., Blaenyddol. The latter gentleman kindly consented to preside over the meeting. The Baud felt highly pleased to see these two geutlemen present, both of whom complimented them in the most flattering terms for the progress they had made, and encouraged them to go on with renewed vigour and we hope the warm reception they had on their first appearance before the public will stimulate them to follow up this advice. The proceedings of the evening were greatly eulivened by Owain Glyndwr, who amused the audience with his usual witty and telling expressions. The proceeds were to be applied to defray the expenses incurred by the Band in the purchase of instruments, and in payment for instruction. The move- ment has cost them, we understand, about qClOf) since it was started. The getitr), of th* district have contri- biltefl- i(,iiie of them very lihemlIy-in support of it, and it would be, ;I matter of deep regret if it failed even- tually for want of assistance-pecuniary or otherwise. The movement is certainly one deserving of every en- couragement.

PENMOEFA. ST. DAVID'S DA Y-AIVERSARY DINTVRR OF THE SOCIETY FOR THE PROSECUTION OF FELONS. The anniversary dinner of this society took place on Wednesday last, the 1st of March, at the Bwlch-y- fedweti Inn, Penmorfa. There was but a comparatively small attendance of members, but the proceedings, gene- rally, were of a very spirited character. Mr. and Miss Thomas provided a most sumptuous and excellent (liniier-tlie best we have ever sat down to at any previous meeting of the society-and this was ae- knowledge! by all. The chairman was Mr. Richard Lloyd Jones, Madoclc Arms Hotel, Tremadoc and Mr. R I. Jones, Tmnad- oc, acted as vice, in the room of Mr. E. A. Owen, Parkia, who was not present.

After the cloth was removed, The Chairman gave in succession the healths of the "Queen," the "Prince and Princess of Wales, and the rest of the Hoyal Family," which were drauk with much loyal enthusiasm. The treasurer, Mr. O. Griffith, then read over the society's report, from which it appeared that there was a balance in hand of 9 10 17s. 3d. Fifty members had paid in their subscriptions, and the expenses for the past year amounted to X7 15.. The report was unanimously approved of. After some remarks by the treasurer, Mr. R. I. Jones rose and sii(I-I beg to second the proposition made by our worthy treasurer, that the so- ciety be carried on as heretofore. It has now existed for 47 years; and I hold that it has done much good- not indeed by punishments and prosecutions, but in her preventive capacity, and that, too, at a very trifling cost to the members, and they have also had a good dinner every year in the bargain. (Cheers.) Notwithstanding that some persons out of doors have doomed the society to its grave, still I think there are no positive signs of its decease, though the number of members present to- day has a somewhat gloomy look about it. Is this any reason why we should give it up in despair ? It is not when the plant flowers that its roots are the deepest; and the society must have had a good and sound root. or it would not have flourished for 47 years. (Cheers.) The national feeling of the Cymro demands it to be held up in order to commemorate our Patron Saint, whose memory has been held sacred for the ltqt 880 years for certain, for he lived some 1844 years ago. This day— St. David's Thy-is at this very time being held in great respect by thousands of Welshmen and English- men and is it for a handful of Eifionyddites, like us, to put it down (Applause.) We all know very well that social society meetings are very scarce in this loca. lity; and I think, therefore, we ought to foster this association because it gives us an occasion to meet together in a social and friendly way. (Loud cheers ) For myself, I have great faith in this society, and I be lieve it will last another 47 years and that it will al- ways continue to be a terror and an awe to evil doers and vicious characters. Moreover, I will maintain this, that if it will be the better means of preventing one per- son from committing a bad act, it will answer its object and do more good than a hundred punishments. (Loud cheering.) Mr. Jones then proposed, in very compli- mentary terms, the health of the Treasurer. Mr. 0. Griffith returned thanks, and observed that the practical character of the association, which was proposed at some former meetings, was not now neces- sary, inasmuch as an agricultural society had been esta- blished for Lleyn and Eifionydd, the annual meetings of which would be held alternately in Pwllheli and Tre- madoc. The secretary, Mr. Morris, then read over the sub- scription list, many of whom did not answer to their names; but a good many sent in their subscription. Mr. R. I. Jones then rose, and proposed the health of the respected treasurer, 0. Griffith, Esq., and remarked that one great reason that the society had existed so long was that they had so efficient and worthy officers, and particularly an efficient treasurer; for he believed that a more worthy officer no society ever possessed; as be was a gentleman they all may be proud fof, and he was respected by all classes of society. (Loud cheers,) Mr. Jones then recited the following impromptu verse, which was much applauded. j I'n tra siriol drysorydd—ein henwog A'n hanwyl O. Griffith Tra golcho'r don Eifionydd, Ei eriw a'i barch yti ftwr!)V(ld. ATXTUD EIFIOK. Mr. Griffith, in responding, said tint he had been a member of the society for 47 Vears. and its treasurer for 35, and he, in fact, was the only memher living who was present at its first formation, and for himself he should always support it. (Applause.) Mr. John Parry, in a brief complimentary speech, proposed the health of the Chairman, Mr. R. Lloyd Jones. Mr. R. 1. Jones again recited the following impromptu verse— In Ilywvdd difyr Ihwen-y dylem Roi'n diolch mewn crechwen; Rhodder, A nerfch yr heidden, Lwnc iechyd tra bywyd i'w ben. ALLTUD EIFION. Mr. R. Lloyd Jones returned thanks in a neat but brief speech. Mr. John Thomas then proposed, as a toast, the health of Mr. and Miss Thomas, and thanks to them for their verv excellent dinner. (Cheers.) Mr. Thomas returned thanks, and said it always gave him great pleasure, and likewise his sister, to do all in their power to accommodate their friends to the best of their ability, and they should always continue to do no. It was a source of much pleasure to him to know that they had given the company satisfaction. (Applause.) Mr. John Thomas next proposed the good health of the secretary, Mr. W E. Morris, who had always proved himself to be a most efficient officer. (Cheers.) Mr. Morris returned thanks, and said he felt it a great pleasure at all times to do what he possibly could to promote the interests of the society. (Applause.) Mr. 0. Griffith next gave, as a toast, Mr. E. Anwyl Owen, who would be their president next year, but who, he was sorry to say, was not present on that occasion. This toast was duly honoured. The good health of Mr. it. I- Jones was then pro- posed by Mr. John Parry, and was duly drank and res- ponded to, FThfabsent members was then proposed by Mr. E. Roberts, PensySog, which was responded to by Mr.. R. MorrM, who particularly apologised for the ?absennccee of Mr. J. H. Jones and Mr. E. Breese, as those gentle- men were busily engaged in preparing for the Menoneth- shire Assizes. Mr. John Parry also apologised on behalf of Captain G. Owen, who was employed in making preparations for an event quite as interesting as the Assizes. (Laughter and Mr R. L (ones then proposed the Farmers of Eifion- ydd, and with the .o.\st coupled the names of Mr. Jones, Gwyndy, Mr. M. Griffith, Llwynymafon, and Mr. I-. Roberts, Pensyflog. I 'tll d rem-ir k p(1 that the Mr. Roberts returned thanks, and remarked that the farmers in these districts were never better off than they were at present, because they principally reared cattle, and cattle never sold better than they did now. He would advise them, however, to import gram to feed their cattle so as to eusure still greater profit. (Loua Mr. John Thomas then proposed the health of Mr. Davies, Commercial Hotel, Portmadoc, who was a new member, and wtio, he was sure, they were all very glad to see at their meeting. (Cheers.) M,\ Davies returned thanks in a bri_ et _speech. A Welill song by 4fr. Lt. L. JUllCS-" The Barley, corn. Mr. W. E. Morris next proposed tlie "Lntl with it the representative of the "North Wales Chronicle." Our reporter returned thanks. Mr. John Parry was next proposed by Mr. K. J, Jones, who briefly responded. Mr. Owen Griffith, in a very warm and comphmcutary manner, proposed the health of Mr. Mathew, Worn, whom he eulogised as a good magistrate, a good country gentleman, and who was always ready to assist in everything which tended to promote the good and the happiness of his neighbours. Drunk with much cheering. Mr. Cheuery returned thanks on behalf of Mr. Mathew. The meeting then terminated.

PENMORFA. I TE.V PAKTIT.—On Tuesday last, Mr. Humphrey Lloyd, merchant, kindly gave a splendid tea to 96 chil- dren of the district, at his house in this village, to com- memorate the ooeuing of his tine new shop, which he has recently built. The children, boys and girls, were invited from all parts, as far as Pencaenewydd, and (he little people seeme,1 to enjoy themselves very much in- deed. There was an aoundance of bara brith" and other similar adjuncts, and as it was Shrove Tuesday, Mrs. Williams, Tymawr Inn, kindly sent in Iilito, a heap of nice pancakes, which created Itiite sensation." The following ladies officiated at the tables, and were most assiduous in their attention to the juvenile party- ,Nfrs, aii,i Vis-3 if. IVillizinii, Tymawr, and Miss Hughes, Bwlchyfedwen Inn, Miss Griffith, Allt- wen Cottage, and Miss Roberts, schoolmistress. Cap- tain Mathews' schoolchildren were all present. The above, we believe, is quite a new feature as it regards the occasion of tea parties."

RUTHIN. I COUNTY COURT. r The bi-monthly County Court for this district was I held on Friday week, 24tli ult., in the County Hall, be- fore R. Vaughan Williams, Esq., Judge. SiiEEP TilEsPASS. I David Roberts, v. Cadwaladr Jones.-An netion claim- ing iM for damages done by about 100 sheep to three loads of turnips. Mr. Adams appeared for plaintiff, and Mr. Louis for defendant. The parties are neighbouring farmers in the parish of Gyffylliog. In December last, defendant's sheep enter- ed plaintiff's turnip field and were seen there, it was al- leged by the plaintiff, for three successive days, during which time they so damaged three out of five loads of turnips that they were unfit for further use-nothing but the peelings being left. The trespass was admitted, lfis. on that account having been paid into Court, but Mr. Louis contended that defendants' sheep were pastur- ing in common with other people's sheep on an adjoining mountain,, which were also in the habit of entering plaintiffs' turnip field-therefore, he thought it unfair that his client should suffer all the burden of the loss sustained. His HONOUU observed that the owners of the sheep would perhaps volunteer to assist the defendant to pay the damages. The witnesses for the plaintiff, however, had sworn that defendant's were the only sheep seen in the field on the days the turnips were destroyed. Mr. Louis in advocating for a reduction of the claim, said that plaintiff was a litigious person, whereupon His HONOUU pertinently remarked—You don't com- plain of that, do you ? (A laugh.) Mr. Louis (jocosely)-I do, sir, in all sober serious- ness. His Ho-ioun-On public grounds ? Mr. LOUIS --No, sir j on private grounds—my time to-day is being wasted. Judgment for plaintiff for one guinea, in addition to the 15s. paid into Court. CAUGHT IN HIS own TRAP. I Thos. Jones, butcher, v. James Phoenix.— This action created a little merriment in Court. His HONOUR (to nJe Defendaut)-Do you owe this money, £ 3 4s. Od. for meat ? DEFENDANT—(Coolly) I suppose I do. His HONOUR-Bow can you loay ? DEFENDANT—Two shillings a week. His HON-OCR (to plaintift)—Will that satisfy you t PI.AINTLYIP-tie can pay at once he's got plenty of money. His H ONOUR- Then, he is better off than I am very few persons have plenty of money. DEFENDANT (angrily-How can you prove it, Thomas Jones ? His HONOUR-What is the defendant ? Pl;tintiff-A driver, sir, at the White Lion. His HONOUR—This is not good time, you know, for a driver. Two shillings a week, I think is a fair offer. I will make an order for 2s. a week for the first three months, and 3s. a week afterwards. DEPENDENT—I offered him 10s. this morning, and he would not take it. His HONouR-INw much? DEFENDANT (greatly elated)— Ten shillings, sir His HONoUlt- Very well-I will add to the order- to pay 10s. forthwith." (Laughter.) DEFENDANT retired with a long and gloomy face.
