THE LOitDS AND COMMONSI
THE LOitDS AND COMMONS I ()i., ?ill the qiiet i ons OF aU the questions discussed by the general puidie since the passing of the Reform Bill in I 1 oji, ue doubt whether any one has excited much serious and even solemn attention, the conduct of the lords in their rejection of vhe Iliil for the repeal of the Paper Duty. This T ix has been pronounced untenable for many j yenrs past, and it is becoming more and more so tiav. In 1835, a royal commlsSlon- | ."U'iiich sat with the view to enquire into its j <)juT..tion condemned it, and urged iti abolition. It has since that time been condeiniiet -I)y all parties -Whi»s, Tories, and Liberals. It his been condemned by Sir E. 15. Lytton, Mr Jjisvaeli, Lord Derby, Mr Gladstone, and by ^Iiinicipal Councils, and Chambers of Commerce i:iro;i<j,oiit the Kingdom—and the public press. 111 1658, the House of Commons passed a reso- lution in fivour of its repeal; and in the year ] gCt), that House has passed a Bill carrying into ciL'ct. that resolution yet on being sent up to the Lords, they tell the Commons that they. •\viii not pass its Bill, but will retain the duty, although the £ 1,200,000 is not required for the ii,iri)oses of the state. Thus do the Lords by their act, tax the British people to the tune <> a million and a quarter—although the con- stitution plainly states, that they have no right to interfere in money matters. The House in its financial arrangements, pro* posed and passed the Budget of its Chancellor of the Exchequer, as a whole, and one ot its provisions was, that the duty on paper was to cea,e in July or August next. In order to make up the deficiency created by the abolition of the taxes on knowledge, the income-tax under the acts 23 Vict., cap. 14, was augmented from !)d to lOd in the pound, which secured a surplus of revenue amounting to nearly half a million of money; Mr Gladstone therefore does not want the duty arising from the manu- iac.ure—yet the Lords by their vote tell the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that they insist on his having—and by their decision, the country is saddled with one million and a quarter of ad- ditional taxes. We protest in the name of the people of England against this usurpation of power on the part of the Upper House, for if we are to be taxed according to the caprice of this irresponsible body, the days of free government it re en led. But what has influenced the Lords in the deeuion to which they have come ? One thing is perfectly certain—that they are no friends of re cheap press of this country. The penny and two-penny papers of England andWales, exercise an immense influence on the country. These papers are nearly all, advocates of popular rights and free institutions. Their circulation is very great, ar.d is becoming larger every week,'and they are conducted with great ability; and as du'V are the exponents of principles diametri- c- dly opposed to Lord Derby and his party, no wonder they use every exertion to crush them, by imposing heavy duties on the paper used. The Morning Star," which, for ability and spirit stands at the top of the cheap daily papers, pays some X8,000 or £10,000 in paper duty. Again, the Peers are no friends to direct taxa- tion. It has been proved to demonstration that seventy-five per cent of the indirect taxes are paid by the great body of the people. Their language is, tax the people as much as you like --let them pay duty upon corn, on sugar, on tea, on tobacco, and all the real necessaries • « 1 T ■ winch tiie working man must have in order to live I comfortably—but don't ask us to tax ourselves —let us have no property tax-no succession hx-no taxes upon real property, and then we shall be content. -Only allow us a share in the rich appointments at the disposal of the crown, so that we shall put into our pockets as much as possible of the sums contributed by the people. Our opinion is, that they have already ri-ceivid enough, and with a Reformed ] r ouse of Commons, they will assuredly lind that the present lavish expenditure will not long be allowed to continue. d £ 30,000,000 for the army and navy is a monstrous sum! and its m r'ge"ent is a disgrace to the nation. But how can it be reduced ? One way to check it is, to pass a bill disqualifying every naval and military officer in receipt of any stipend from the crown in respect of their appointment from sit- tiij, in the House of Commons. Why should they sit there more than civil servants of the crown We think it is unjust to the people that these men should have seats in the lower house, and vote away money for themselves and their friends. I n the matter, therefore, of the Paper Duty Abolition bill, three things are perfectly apparent in its rejection—the hostility of the Lords to the cheap press-their hostility to direct taxation—and thirdly, they have no wish or desire to diminish the present enormous expenditure. At the time we write, we know not what course the House of Commons will pursue respecting the vote of the Lords. We hop; they will stand up for their rights and privileges. AVe need hardly say that the country is with them. Lirtre and influential meetings have been held to protest against the proceedings of the Upper House. Other meetings are about lIeld, and there is every certainty that the country will almost' unanimously stand by Mr. Gladstone. We advise the various public bodies in Wales to call public meetings. Let the lead- ing men in the boroughs and counties write to their members, to urge them to stand by the rrnnent, and assert the rights of the Com- jro: s in all matters relating to finance. The Lords u ill soon find themselves weak and power- less, Tliey cannot stand against the vox populi r) Dei. If our representatives in Parliament, bael-.rd by the people, will so act, the day will shortly ome when the Lords will regret the course pursued by them with reference to this taTij and will find, when it is too late, that they have done that which has brought them to a state of such deep humiliation, and make them tremble for the stability and perpetuity of the privileges they now enjoy.
PROSPECTS OF GARIBALDI. I
PROSPECTS OF GARIBALDI. The progress of Garibaldi in Sicily has equalled the most sanguine expectations of his friends. He has several times met, and fought, and (of course) discomfited the Neapolitan troops, and the whole island, with the exception of Palinero and Messina, is in his bands. The success of his expedition may be guessed from the acts of the Neapolitan Court, who have sent first General Lanza, and afterwards General Fil;ttii,leri, to offer the insurgents a vice-royalty and an amnesty. The only reception this trea- cherous proposal has met with has been, "It is too; late down with the Bourbons" —a cry that will probably before long be rc-echoed on the other side of the Straits. It is understood that the Austrian Govern- ment which has taken the opportunity of putting forth another promise to Hungary— dares not interfere to support the sorely-pressed young King of Naples, and that an application for a,d made to the Court of Madrid has been somewhat curtly refused. What part the Em- peror of the French proposes to play remains to he seen. The Sicilians, guided by Garibaldi, will, no doubt, baffle all intrigues; but a revolu- tion at Naples would offer temptations for in- direct intervention that Louis Napoleon would find it hard to resist. There is however, reason to hope that the Italian national movement has grown too strong to be effectually thwarted even by a Napoleon. Everybody has been waiting with great anx. iety for new of the progress of Garibaldi in Sicily but the absence of any official telegrams from Naples served to quiet apprehension, for people knew that any mishap to the hero or his followers would speedily be sent all over Europe. The desire for intelligence is now to some extent gratified, but, unfortunately, the news is again of a directly contradictory character. On the one hand, we have two official telegrams from J X aples recording three distinct victories over the nsurgents, and asserting that they have been driven from their positions on the he:«lits lIear Palermo. On the other hand, the Zlovemcnto of Genoa, in a supplement issued on Wednesday, announces that Garibaldi has entered with 9000 infautry and a squadron of cavalry, and that the Neapolitan troops laid down their arms. The Patrie doubts the accuracy of this intelligence but the Paris correspondent of the Express says that he is assured of its correctness, and be I adds that Garibaldi, after having made hiinsell undisputed master of Sicily, will organise a land and sea force for a descent on Calal)ria and drive the Bourbon Tyrant from his throne.

BOROUGH MAGISTRATES' COURT.
BOROUGH MAGISTRATES' COURT. MONDAY, MAY 21, 1830.—Before Thomas Painter, Eo'q., Mayor, Thomas Edi; worth, Esq., tx-mavor, and T. T. Griffith, Esq. There was a boy in custody named Samuel Roberts, of Vron, near Chirk, lie had been found in a carriage on the railway at the Wrexham station, with tiiket in his possession, taken at Llangollen Road fur Ruabon. Inspector Lamb said he had some clothing on which led them to suspect that he had escaped from the Denbigh Lunatic Asylum, and asked the bench to rem ml him until Tuesday, when the police would likely receive a reply from the authorities of the asyium- The prisoner's account of himself was that he had been in the asylum fourteen months, and that he had been discharged cured. Sinee he had come out the people wern plaguing and shouting Madhouse" after him. and when he was iound on the railway he was on Lis way hick to Mr Robinson, the superintendent of the Asylum, about the matter. DRUNKENNESS. —Michael Nolan was summoned by TbomasJones, [alias Joss) for being drunk and disorderly. Complainant said defendant came into his house on Mon- day, and asked him could his son fight, using very abu- sive language at the same time. Defendant admitted feeing drunk. Fined 5s and 7s costs. AN OLD OFFENDER. Jane Jones (a?'a? Jane Joss) daughter of the complain- ant in the first case, was summoned by Michael N ulan, the defendant in the previous case, for being drunk and disorderly. Mary Anne Salisbury was also summoned, but did not appear. Complainant said he was passing the old Black Horse on Tuesday, where he heard fiddling and dancing noing on within. The defendant came out and asked him what he wanted in their house the day before, and if he would not fight her brother would be I fight her. Mary Ann Salisbury then came out and as- sisted her to abuse him, and he got from them and ran awav. Thomas Owen confirmed the complainant's story, and said he was one who helped to get Nolan out of the grasp of his assailants. W itness said that when Jane fitst came out of the Black Horse she told defend- ant that had she been in when he entered her house she would have split his head open, and cut his arm off with the cleaver. Mr Edgworth said he was passing and saw the way she connoted herself and it was most disgraceful She was ejfifciming "fight me," "fignt me," but the com- plainant very prudently ran away, and the defendant threw a half brick alter him. Defendant: No, your worship, it was the bung of a barrel (laughter.) The Clerk in reply to the bench said he could not ny how often the defendant had been there, but he though he should be within bounds if he said twenty times. Fined,e2, or in default a month's imprisonment. De- fendant could not tind the money-she was, therefore, taken into custody threatening that she would do for Nolan and his witness yet.
COUNTY MAGISTRATES' COURT.
COUNTY MAGISTRATES' COURT. MONDAY, MAY 21, 1860.-Befo.-e H. W. Meredith Esq, and Captain Griffith. The only case that came on for hearing at this cour was a charge against Daniel Hughes, servant to M Woodfin, Burton, of riding in bis cart near Berae chapel Fined 2:1 6d and 8s costs.
"WREXHAM BOARD OF GUARDIANS.
"WREXHAM BOARD OF GUARDIANS. THURSDAY, MAY 24TH. Present: -Mr Chaloner, chairman Mr Edgworth, vice-chairman; Messis Brough, Wright, Rowe, Jones, (Ruabon) Stretch, Jones (Hope) Hughes, Clay, Parson- age, Duckworth, Manley, .Roberts (Eyton) Gaman, Woolrich, and Sanderson. The minutes of the last board being read and confirm- ed, a communication from the Poor Law Board was read respecting the granting of non-resident relief to Sarah Edwards, now residing at Mollington. THE CASE OF MARY ROWLAND AGAI I Mr Sanderson wished to call the attention of the Board to what appeared to him to be a rather rash con- clusion of that Board that day week. He wished the Board to re-consider the matter, and Mrs Humphreys I was there, and no doubt she would put a new feature upon the whole transaction. He would be ablf also to prove that the eighteen-pence which Mary Rowland said she had from Louisa Williams must have been stolen from Mr llumphreys, as Eliza Williams said she had never given her eightcen-pencc, and further, he thought the rate of salary was too high. Mr Charles Hughes said that there was an agreement between the parties which was made in the presence of Mr Bragger. If he wished to move that the sum due to the girl be paid minus the eighteen-pence ho may do so, but could not alter the wages due to the girl and agreed to be paid to her. Mr Sanderson again went on, when he was interrupt- ed by the chairman, who said that he could not rescind the resolution of the previous hoard without giving seven days' notice. Mr Edgworth then gave in detail what had transpired at the two previous board meetings, und that the clerk had written to Mrs Humphreys requesting her to attend the board to confront the giH. She did not do so, but Mr Humphreys came, and all the guirdians would bear him out when he said that his statement was not very creditable to him. Mr Humphreys said she had picked his rocket, but there was a counterstatement made by MrM'Cutcheon that from enquiries he bad made there was no reason to doubt the girl's statement. Mr Sanderson rose again for the purpose of making a further statement, and to insist upon Mrs Humphreys being called, when the chairman said the board was not in a position to hear him unless he had given notice. Mr Evan Jones, Hope, said the RevJ Williams, vicar, Hope, had requested him to state to the board that he had a situation for Mary Rowland, at Hope, and ulti- mately moced that the girl be allowed to go to service, which was seconded by M r Roberts. u RUABON FINANCES. Mr Wright called the attention cf the Board to the conduct of the Ruabon overseers, they having large sums of money in their possession and did not scud in an accountot the same. Mr Rowefollowed with similar remarks. MEDICAL REPORTS. Mr Edgworth said that in going over the relief list be found that four persons were charged on the medical lis-t, end no redort had been made by the medical oiffcer, Mr Ingman. Jt was resolved that the clerk write to Mr Ingmdn respecting the same.

THE ART Usiox OF CHEAT BKITAIN.— We beg to call attention to the advertisement of the above Art Un- nion, announcing the last day for issuing tickets, and are pleased to find that there is every probability that the 600 prizes already announced will be considerably in- creased both in numbers and arrounts, as nearly 200,000 tickets have been already issued fur drawing. The plan of a Shilling Art Union," although but recently in- troduced, has already taken a hold on public opinion, which augurs well lor its ultimate success. It was first acted upon in Paris, where it ieachtd upwards of 100,000 subscribers, and has since been successfully carried out in Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham, where, ale though the prize-holders were compelled to select their prizes from the exhibitions in which the promoters were themselves interested, the aggregate number of tickets sold was upwards of 85,000, The Art Union of Great Britain has been established on a wider and more com- I prehensive basis, and whilst affording every advantage I which the local Art Union possess, allows its prizu- holders to select their painting lrom any public Exhibi- tion of Works of Modern Artists in Great Britain or Ireland, thus making it as much an Art of Ireland or Scotland as if its head-quarters were established in I Edinburgh or Dublin, making it, in fact, what its name implies, the Art Union of Great Britain; and we have I no doubt, from the novelty of the scheme, the low price of the tickets, and the success which has attend- ed every attempt to cheapen whatever is popular, that a very large number of tickets will be disposed. We would therefore recommend such of our readers as may- intend purchasing tickets to do so without delay. THE LATH Filig AT WYNSTAY.- W e copy the follow- ing from a contemporary, in speaking of the Exhibition of the Royal Academy: The hearts of the Cymri will warm when they get into the East-room, and their eyes rest upon No. 158-the largest picture in the Academy, for there, to the life they will recognize a couple of fa- miliar forms, dear to the hearts of Welshmen. On refer- ence to the catalogue they will find the picture described as follows: 'Sir Watkin and Lady Williams Wynn, presented as a token of sympathy and affection, by 18,247 Cymri, to Marie Emily Williams Wynn, in reo membrance of the merciful protection vouchsafed to her and Sir Watkin on the 6th of March, 1858, when Wynn- stay was destroyed by fire.' F. Grant, K.A., is the artist, and the likenesses are excellent. A favourite horse and hound are skilfully introduced into the picture. The same exhibition also contains a m irble bust of Sir Watkin. Slit WATKIN'S DIELTIID.&T.-On Tuesday, the bells of the Wrexham Church ushered in with merry peals the anniversary of the birthday of Sir W. W. Wynn. At Ruabon, the event was celebrated with great eclat. At early dawn a flag was placed on the church steeple, by an old friend and well-wisher of the house of Wynnstay, Captain Jones, of Bellan. The village was the scene ) of great festivity—the rifle volunteers of the district, I assembled in full dress uniform, and commanded by Lieutenant Roberts, marched to Wynnstay, where they were assembled in front of the hall. After going through the various evolutions of the drill, fired three volleys in honour of the event, and returned to the village. All the different employes of Sir Watkin were entertained in a most hospitable manner. Sir Watkin granted a holiday to all the different artisans employed upon the mansion, and the day was celebrated by them with the "ltfiC festivity, and by none more so, than by the I tenantrr who vied with each other in hODourUl H** j Watkin by t'h Q W&tM. by tblÍ  I: whic4 they celebrated the aumvor- J ry of his bKtMay.
YALE OF CLWYD RAILWAY.
YALE OF CLWYD RAILWAY. MEETING AT DENBIGH, An extraordinary meeting of the Valt. ->f Cl«-yd Rail- way Company was held in the County Hall, At Denbigh, on Thtirsd y last, when a copv of th.. following Bill. now pending in Parliament, was submitted for the con- sideration of the pr- pi ieto, s-namelv 1 "A Bill to enable the Vale of Clwvd Railway Comimny to extend their railway to the river C ii,yd at Fo'vl; to construct a toll bridge over the same and fjr other purposes." Towmncnlll\lqiuWHrin\ K*q, Chairman of the Com- oanv, presided, aud alter the noiici convening the meet- ing had hem read hy the secretary, he adverted to the provisions t'f the Bill as stated in the notice, also to the ciicumstance thai a clause har< been .,Ifleol to the Bill grafting to the London and North Western liiilwuy Company running poweis over ihe Vale of Ciwyd lt.'il- wa%. 'J hey would excuse him ming so litile-it iii- said more he should pioh.ibly n(rt m«nd mutters. The C'.airmau tht-n moved a resolution to the rfl'tct that the Bill now bdure Parliament be approved Colonel Wynn, M.P., seconded the resolution, and in df'ina so explained to the meeting that the running powers had boen granted to the London and Ni rth- Wi stern Company for the purpose of favinsc the Bill- if ihese powers had not been granted the Bill must have been lest. Mr foi'nes here ro-e and said be had a question or two to put. lie wished to ask whether Parliament, '.ad how the power to alter or amend the bill, and whether there "as any'-ouise open to them except to accept or reject the bill ? lie 11180 wished to ask whether they had any (,bjo'c',ioll for him to read to the meeting the agrpcii, itt wr.ich had beer. come to with the London and Nortu- Westein Company granting the running powers ? Mr Williams (the solicitor of the Company) referred to clause 64 in toe bill in answer to Mr Johnes' last question, and in reply to his first question said, it was open to them to amend, or Ieject, during the progress of the bill through the House ot Lords. Mr Turnbull said he should otjec; to the running powers being granted to the N irth Western Company, as such powers could not but act injuriously to the in- terests of the Vale of Clwyd R tilway. He should like to know, therefore, whether it was open to them to drop the bill at any stage of its progress t the bill at any st, n Mr Williams said he had no hesitation in saying that they had the power of dropping the bill. ilrturnbiill said he was satisfied. Mr Napier then rose and said that he had no wish to disturb the harmony of the meeting. Mr Johnes had pelt the whole matter in so simple a shape-the accepting ur rejecting of the bill-that he should nut detain them on that point. But though he had no wish to disturb the harmony of the meeting—he had one or two ques- tions to put, the first was-what use do you mean to make of the t 17,000 unissued scares ? The Chairman: To use them for the purpose for which the meeting has been called, as expressed in the resolu- tion which has been moved and seconded. Mr Napier: I thank you, sir, but at the same time I beg to state that you have no legal authority to do so. I have one other question to put to you as our local re- presentative in Parliament-I have no wish to be offen- sive, but I wish to know how this clause granting the running powers to the London and North Western Com- pany passed the committee without you attending that committee once ? The Chairman: I have a right to use my own discre- tion on such a point. Colonel Wynn: I was there all the time, and we thought that one was enough at a time, Mr.Mainwaring was iu the House of Commons the whole of the time, and I thought I ought to supply his place as he was not well. Indeed, it almost knocked him (Col. Wynn) up, suoh was the atmosphere of the committee room. After a few words from the chairman, Mr Napier asked why the engineer and not the solicitor was consulted in reference to the running poweis ? Col. Wynn replied at some length to the effect that they had been put in a fix by Mr Napier himself, who gave evidence directly opposite to that which he had led the directors to believe he should do. Counsel told him (Col Wynn) that they had been floored by their own wit- ness, and were obliged to insert this clause to keep the bill alive at all. It was granting the running powers that saved the line. Mr Napier eaid Col Wynn had not informed them how they came to consult the engineer instead of the so- licitor. Col Wynn said the time was so short that there was scarcely time left tJ consult with any one. He had not even time to go down and consult Mr Mainwaring, in the library of the House, which would occupied tjn minutes at least, as all who know the committee rooms would admit. After a few words from Mr Napier, the chairman said he believed there was some mistake, he believed they did consult their solicitor. Mr Williams said he thought they had done so. Mr Mainwaring and Col. Wynn had acted in the only way they could act under the circumstances, and had done what they thought was best fur the interests of the com- pany. If ho (Mr Williams) had had any idea of the evidence Mr Napier was about to give he should never have put him into the box. Up to the lat moment he thought Mr Napier was strongly in favour of the objects of the bill, but his evidence was directly opposed to both objects, and it was in cons-queiice of this evidence that they (ailed in proving the preamble of the bill. In this prcuicamcnt t,he bill must have been lost unless they had conceded the running powers. They had gone to con- gidera'ue expense, all of which would have been thrown awav if they had not conceded these running powers to the Great Western Company to keep the bill alive. He believed Mr Napier had s'tid to some one that he had changed hins mind before he was called into the box, but then he ought to have told him so. He had no doubt Mr Napier was influenced by conscientious motives— he felt uo doubt that his interests would be interfered if the line was brought over to the west aide of the river. But then it was very wrong to allow himself to be put into the box when he had changed his mind. Mr Napier: I repel with dUgust such insiruationa. (Some altercation followed between Mr Napier and Mr Williams, in which Mr Napier admitted that he changed his mind, and Mr Williams maintained that he ought to have told him so.) Mr Finney asked had Mr Napier interests of his own that were adverse to the iutercsts of the shareholders? (cries of no no.) The chairman said Mr Napier's interests were not ad- verse to the interests of the company, but he bad exclu- sive interests by which he was biassed-a failing that was common tu all of them. He hoped, however, Mr. Fapier would appro3ch the subject calmly. Mr Napier: I should be inhuman if I did not feel strongly on the present occasion. Mr Napier made some further remarks to show that the interest of his steamer running between Ithvl and Liverpool were identical with the interests of the Vale of Clwyd Railway Company. He then went on to deny that he had said that he was opposed to an independent station at Rhyl,-his evidence was quite incapable of any such construction. After some conversation about the running powers, and the bridge over the river at Rhyl, Captain Thomas asked whether they had the power to expunge any clause in the House of Lords ? Mr Williams replied that if any clause were ex- punged the bill would then have to go back to the House of Commons. Mr Napier said that Mr Williams had told him that the withdrawal of a clause would vitiate the bill. Mr Williams denied this. Colonel Wynn said the Lords had the power to amend any clause, but the bill must then go back to th3 Com- mons, when the question would be put by the speaker whether they agreed to it, if they did, there the matter ended, if they did not, it was referred back to committee. With regara to dropping the bill, that could be done at any stage previous to its receiving the royal assent. Several contiadictory opinions were expressed on this point, Mr Johnes and others giving expression to opin- ions opposed to that of Colonei Wynn. Mr Williams said he saw no difficulty in the matter. He spoke on the authority of oue of their agents, when he said that a clause could be expunged. Mr Frankish, who was a parliamentary agent was present, and could no doubt tell them. Mr Frankish said it was clear that if the clause were to be expunged, the bill would have no chanco of pas- sing—it would be a fraud upon the London and North Western. Mr Williams said he was sorry to find that the opinion of Mr Frankish was opposed to his, but Messrs Muggle- ton and Boll had given the opinion he had stated-that the clause could be expunged. Mr Frankish said they would have to fight it all over again if they expunged the clause. Several of the shareholders then expressed their opin- ions and made different suggestions. Colonel Wynn suggested that notice should be given to the London and North Western of their intention to have the clause expunged—they would have pleuty of time to lodge their petition. It was certainly not the fault of the directois that the clause granting the running powers was inserted. After a few words from Mr Gardener, who proposed that the bill be abandoned, Mr Gold Edwards rose and made a suggestion as to the most convenient course to be pursued. He thought it would be desirable to take the opinion of the shareholders as to what they thought the objectionable features of the bill, then obtain an under- taking from the directors that the bill should not be passed with those clauses. Mr Napier: There would be more expense incurred in this way, than by abandoning the bill. Mr Finnev agreed with the suggestions of Mr Gold Edwards-it would be better than sacrificing the bill. Let them express an opinion, then leave the matters in the hands of the directors. iMr Ilillward: I would not trust one of the directors (laughter and cheers.) Mr Turnbull asked what would be the advantage of dropping the bill. Mr Uec said he hoped Mr Gardener would withdraw his resolution, and that Mr Millward would withdraw his remark. Mr Gee then replied at some length, exonerating the directors from the charge of selfishness or neglect, Mr Napier then seconded Mr Gardener's motion for abandoning the bill. Alter some further desultory discussion, Mr Turnbull asked what guarantee they had, if they dropped the bill that the London and North Western would continue to allow them to travel over their line into Rhyl. Mr Williams said there was a clause in their bill which said that in case of the extension of the Vale of Clwyd line beyond Ruthin, the London and North Western Company have the power of terminating the agreement. Until that does take place they have no such power. This matter was then discussed at considerable length Mr Johnes objecting to any matter being left to the di- rectors, which called forth an indignant reply from Col. Wynn. Af!t'r eor-i-i WaMe discussion and various moli nswere nut Rlld withdrawn, Mr Ilusrfies (of y,Lrl.) arnon^yt other questions isked what advantage making a bridge for the public at Foiyd would be to the We of Clwyd Hail way Company, and what would bd the cost of the -au.eP This lid Mr Gse to ask the contractors wither they would continue to guarantee the shareholtlers tbeir fl per cent, on the Vale of t'lwyu lino, and 5 per cent, on life extension into Rhyl, or would they decline to carry out their h'sse.

S and above our ken and forethought. U'hile Ilea | caues His sun to shine alike on the evil and the < good, He often sends atHictions on the righteous | t and the benefactors of humanity, from which the | ? unthankful and unholy escape. It is no business 1 ? of ours to emiuire into the ¡'eason of these oper- 1 8 .u!on? of the D?tty, snutoent is it for us to )?now 1 | that the »oveminent is upon his shouMers, and a | that He orders the alluirs of men by infinite wis- § | dom. If He ?ive the wound, it is our duty to| I kiss the rod thac indict it, and trust the heating 1 thereof to Him, who does all thin? well. Tuis 5 is a hard duty, especially under certain circuin- 1 | stances, but it is not, until we look upon the I | events which have occurred from some future a stand point, that we fully realise the breadth, 6 and the depth, and the height of that Divine wisdom, which is carrying out the grand pur- poses of His sovereign will, for the universal good of mankind. Such were the thoughts which passed through our mind on being informed of the death of Mr Lloyd, of Hafod, whose obituary appeared in our last week's impression, and we cannot allow the solemn opportunity to pass without making a few observations respecting an event which has cast a gloom over the inhabitants of Mold and its vicinity. Mr Llovd was the architect of his own fortune When but a young man he bid adieu to home and friends, in order to seek wealth and position I in the broad world. When abroad, he applied himself with the greatest assiduity to his various | duties, and by rectitude, integrity, and diligence, I he gained the goal of his ambition. After realiz- ing an ample fortune, he returned to his own | land, and purchased the Hafod estate, and he and his amiable lady have by their kiudness and i I goodness diffused blessing and happiness on every I I hand. Mr Lloyd, though a Liberal, was not an | advanced Reformer, lie felt a deep interest in the progress of commercial, political, and religi- j | ous freedom, and always gave his cordial support S 8 to those candidates at elections who advocated [ 1 those principles. He was a cordial supporter of S unsectarian, christian, and bible education. It j | was only a few days before his death that be: | arranged to preside at a public meeting of the | Mold British Schools, but was prevented by ill- j | health, a circumstance which he deeply regretted. ] By his death the poor have lost a kind friend and benefactor. One of the last acts of his generous beneficence was to promise a donation of £20 to the building fund of the Free Church, and we I believe had he lived that it was his intention to 1 have increased the amount by a sum nearly as 9 large. In addition to this gift, we believe he was a in the habit of subscribing to the general funds | of the Church. This and all movements which had for their object the social, intellectual, edit- fc cational, and religious welfare of the people of | Mold, have by his death sustained a deep, and we fear, an irreparable loss. We hope that our | loss has proved to be his gain, and that his spirit I now stands before the throne of the Redeemer, | siuging Worthy is the Lamb that was slain." 1 Our prayer is, that the son may grow up to I I imitato the virtues, the goodness, and true- 1 heartedness of his father; and that she who was S S his partner in life, may have all the consolation | j which religion and heaven can afford in this her | 8 hour of sorrow. g I Thou art gone to the grave, but we will not deplore thee, S I Tiiouali sorrows and darkness Micon?pass th': tf?tb; i TIat1 Saviour has passed through its itor? before t:;M, g I May the I?mp uf h? 10\e be thy KuÎdo through the g 31,a ?v tiie lainp of his lote be tily KuiJOLi Fiooln. !.m..?!<rM!.t?

ROOK SHOOTING. On Monday the Annual Rook ghooting took place at Emral Park. A select party of gentlemen, farmers, and tradesmen, from the neighbour- hood. Worthenbuiy, availed themselves of the kind invi- tation of R P T Ethelston, Esq., to enjoy the sport of shooting rooks. About one o'clock the shooting com- menced and the sport was kept up till about three o'clock At the conclusion of the sport the whole party were in- vited to partake of Mr Ethehton's hospitality, and ad- e" 11 I 11.. journed to the Man, wnere they were entertained to a most sumptuous spread, to which ample justice was done. After the removal of the cloth, the healths of R P T Ethelston, Esq., Mrs Ethelston, and family were heartily given and responded t>, also, the healths of Mr E E Peel, Mrs Peel, and family were drunk with accla- mation. Song and sentiment followed till evening, when the party-after firing a parting volley separated to their homes, highly pleased with the sport-but that feeling was rather damped by the knowledge that their wor- tbv host Mr Ethelston, who is universally respected, was about to leave Kmral; this was the subject of much and general regret to the neighbourhood. RUABON MAY FAIR.—This fair, which was held on Tuesday last, May 22, was very well attended by buyers and sellers. There was a good show of stock, which realized full prices. Pigs very dear. The show of horses was much better than usual at this fair.

"THE SCHOOLMASTER ABROAD."
"THE SCHOOLMASTER ABROAD." To the Editor of the Denbighshire Advertiser. Sir,—I observe by the medical report of the Wrexham Infirmary, in the Organ" of Thursday, that a certain George Goodhall is troubled with a Liverpool concupion of brain." Whether this is a mental or physical de- rangement, I cannot deiino; but perhaps our friends on the other side of the Mersey are subject to local diseases similar to those which are said to be peculiar to the iena of Lincolnshire. Cettain it is, I never before heard of the brains" of the people of Liverpool called in question. But this is not all. In a leader, the said Organ" speaks of The faithful Shephards of the church," reminding one of the notorious Jack" immortalised by Aiuawortb, and which perhaps is the correct definition it intends to convey. The Rev Mr Hatch we are told was liberated on Saturday, when it is well known that he was not released until noon on Monday, But I could point out at least 500 discrepancies in the said paper, such as WhimM-Monday," &c. These errors ot the press are calculated to mislead the ignorant, and I should certainly get into a chiding tone, if I was not perfectly satisfied that this miserable hash" circulates nothing beyond a few copies amongst that class who are the very fittest associ- ates for it that can possibly be imagined. Yours, &c., A rRACTicAii lUAN,

HOUSK OF LORDS—Thiikvday. I There w, 8 little business of importance in the House of Lords, the time of their lordships being almost ex- clusively occupied with an explamtion and discussion as to tho appointment of the Lord-Lieutenant of London- derry. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THUESDAY. I The opposition hnd anothiir trial of strength. Cir- cumstances h-viog delaved the financial businesg of the session, the balances were nil but exhausted, and the Government was under the necessity of aqiiinic for a vote r.f credit on the civil service estimates b the amount uf £ 400,003. This was opposed as a dangerous precedent, and dt-fended as an ordinary .n-currence in reference to the naval and military estimates. The division was on the m,)tion that the hous- g') into cnrllrnitlct of supply. which was carried by 135 against 109. Mr liorsman I gave notice of his intention to obstruct the Hform Bi I by moving, when it is propo.-ed to go into committee, that the house discuss the principle or bnsis of further legislation by way of resolution. A £ 5 5s license for tHe makers of and dealers in British wines in quaniities above two gallons was sanctioned. The bill for repealing Sir J Bernard's act was read a second time by 181 I against 58.

SERIOUS FKAY 0? BOAKD AN AMERICAN VESSEL.— On Tuesday night last, a serious disturbance took place on board the outwprd bound Amencan ship, Gem of the Ocean, Captain Seth Williams, now lying off Erith. It anpears when the vessel left London, nearly the whole of the crew were intoxicated; ann, on arriving at Erith, some dispute took pl?ee 8S to the performance of dulv. A seaman named Maeavoy having being accused of skulking, some words ensued between Maeavoy and a seaman named Robert Willi.ms, which ended in a right, during which Macivoy bit a considerable portion of i Williams's under lip completely off. Williams then went into the foiecnstle. and returned with a razor, rushed upon his opponent Macavoy, and inflicting 1 several frightful woulldi upon his face and head. Iu consequence of the druukeoess of the crew the utmost confusion prevailed on board, but Williams was secured and a message was sent on shore for the assistance of the police. Tie priaouer Williams (UTO." faoo was bound up in consequence of the uijuiy to his lip) was on Wednesda y placed at the bar of the Woolwich police court, when a medical certlficiite was handed in to the effect that Mucavoy was severely A ounded and unable to attend. The captain, mate, and other witnesses were examined, and Mr Traill remanded the prisoner for a week. INGRATITUDE OF Down's" FRIEND.—If the bishops are entitled to our gratitude, what shbli we say to one conspicuous example of desertion of his party and his friends, to which I cannot help calling attention ? I refer to the proxy which Lord Panmure gave against the second reading. If there was a Whig whom the commonest gratiude for benefits received should have attached to the present Premier it is this noble lord. Lord Palmerston supported him at no small cost of popularity to himself through all the odium which his administration of the army incurred,—through all the olt)li(itiy which he incurred through the well-known telegram D w))," and other little matters of this kind, and yet the first time the noble lord really wants his as- sistance L,rd Pitninure takes his pare with the Elices and Grevf, ct hoc genus omne. What a blessing it would be if these men would just go over to the Tories at once, and let us know the worst they can do!—Correspondent of Manchester Paper. ( THE NEW BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY BILL.—Mr W li BuchanaD, of Basinghall-strect, an expeiienced practitioner in this and other branches of the lav for 30 years, wrote a letter to the Attorney-General on the 28th of March last, pointing out the deficiencies of this measure. Mr Buchanan stued that it was quite obvious that not more than three in one buntired insjlvent real- ised assets for the creditors amounting to £;)0, and that in very many cases the liabilities did not exceedtIOO. The bill proposed a stamp of Plo in every case, subject to a return of one-half of such duty to the petitioner, if the assets realised should not exceed JE50. A difficulty fur- ther pointed out by Mr Buchannan's letter was how the applicant would be able to raise the £ 10, seeing that in a great majority of cases the parties were in the most indigent circumstances. Another objection was shown by the learned gentleman to be that, if the money was raised, how could the 15 ba returned to the petitioner, seeing that all his prior estate was vested in assignees, and that the X10 formed part of such estate. The letter also suggested that instead of the proposed there should be a stamp duty of £5, where the estate was under £100 A. few weeks after the receipt of this letter the amended bill appealed, in which the points of Mr Buchanan's suggestions were entirely adopted. The stamp duty is to be £ 5, subject to the repayment of half to the assignee. MURDKR AND SUICIDE BY A FATHER.—On Thurs- day a baker, named John Herron, threw himself, with his son and daughter into the Keith, a narrow and deep part of the Ericbt. A correspondent of the Dundee Advertiser" says—" Some of the workers at Mr Gruc- ond's mill ncticed a boy standing on a reek in the centie of the river, immediately below the rapids ot th* Keith. 'I hey soon procured assistance and got the little boy I lescued from his dangerous positiou. After some time the boy was questioned as to the cause of his being on the rock, when he stated that his father, when he met them on the bridge, had asked him to go up to see their grandmother, and when passing the deep pools of the Keith, he induced them to go and look at the river. The father stopped on one of the rocks overhanging one of the deep pools, and took off the boy's bonnet, saying he would soon need a new one. He the II rClLùvtd the girl's hat, aud laid it down on the rock beside their school. books, then seized the boy and flung him into the boiling pool, and taking the girl in his arms, plunged after him. The boy, by the strength of the current, after rising to the suiface, was forced upon the rock, where he was found. His father and sister swept past him, and the man, as if aware that the boy would escape, made a clutch at him, which was, fortunately, without avai!. A search was immediately commenced for the bodies, and the body of the girl was luund about one hundred yards down the river."

LATEST INTELLIGENCE ALLEGED ABANDON RXT OF THE REFORM li I LL. The "Timp" Finnounce.. tre virtual abandonment of the Reform Hill as an event, absolutely decided last night (Thursday) although some time may ellipse before the measure is firialiv given up. The "Times" says it is not t,) he expected that the House of Commons will again grant a vote of credit. Rnd it follows, therefore, thai the coming month must be civen up entirely to the consideration of the estimates. The result is perfectly obvious if ti,e month of J line be taken up with the estimates, i he Reiurtn Bill must go over to July, a period everybody knows will be too late to discuss it. It ceems tborefore, that incidentally, and of course without the slightest knowledge on their pirt of tile nature of their own act?, the House ot Commons have lor this vear disposed ot the Reform Bill, anu rendered it morally certain thai, at least in the pres et session, no time can be found for the task of re-arrangiug our re- presentative system.

OVER 1 ON. RETURN OF MR. AND MUS. PEEL.—On Fridav last, (vesterday) the usually quiet village of Uverton was all alive with the festivities occasioned to celt-brute the re- tura home of Mr and Mrs Peel, after an absence of Several months on the Italian peninsula. Many of our readers are no doubi aware thet in con?equei ce of the delicate state of the health of Mrs Pe. i--(.tir illustrious neighbour, it was de,erluined to pass the winter months in the sunny climes of Itdy. At one time very great apprehensions were entertained by the people of Overton it r the ultimate rtturn of Mr and Mrs Peel-as unfor- tunate news had arrived of the precarious health of both. The enthusiasm connected with the celebration of their return therefore was in proportion to the solicitude of the villagers on the receipt of the doleful intelligence alluded 10. Our attention was first attracted by the dashing display of Alr Kenrick. of the Argoed, with four in hand, through the town of Wrexham, driving a uuique and picturesque break laden with the band of toe D. Y. C., on their way to the scene of the rejoicings. On our arrival there amidst the beautiful scenery of the Darland, we were delighted to find an immense concourse of the children of the various Sunday and day Schools and the matrons of the Village were being treated with tea and plum cake in great profusion. We regret to say that in consequence of the unfavourable state of the weather the attendance was not so large as it otherwise would have been, still there was a very happy meeting, and all enjoyed themselves to the full. Mr Kenrick did every- thing in his power to make the thing a success, but his efforts were to some extent marred by the refusal of certain parties to allow the children of the National schools to unite with the Dissenters in giving expression to their feelings on such an interesting occasion. Not- withstanding this drawback, an exceedingly happy even- ing was spent, and it was agreed that the children of the National school should enjoy a tieat by themselves on Monday next.
