WALES.

FATS OP A TOVRIPT.—We have already announced that
the remains of the Rev. H. W. Stan have been found on
Snowdon. The following particulars have since ap-
peared : It will be remembered that last September,
this gentleman, • cleric) man of Northampton, was on
a tour in North Wales, when he suddenly disappeared.
Various rumours were circulated to account for his
deappeermee; hat the amnion of one of the guides,
John Hissbm, that he had met a person on the
summit of Wider Fawr, had convened with him, and had
received Mignon from him for pointing out the way back
into the Llembsela read, pat an end to all other conjectures,
especially ne Megbee's shemiption of his person and dress
seemed to semeepied se entirely with the description given
of the ill-kited gentleman ; sad the general supposition was,
that he had perished in ass of the terrific gorges of that
mountain. It is now, however, well esoertained
either diet Maglese's story wee a fabeloation, or that
the fi=seitemi be saw daily neembied Mr. Starr.

terooms teeviet ; that Is, the bedy tea the waist to the
knees ; mad seer it a white cerebric handkerchief, marked
in red with the letters H. W. S. They proceeded up-
wards foe abssit4o9 yards, and at the foot of the precipice
they found the bias bone, and at the top of the precipice
ono of the shealims, with the arm and band perfect, hanging
over. At this !pet, also, they found a hair brush, a small
telescope, • asp of North Wales, a small theological
treatise, red • pocket-book. They continued their
search up the bed of the torrent, and found pieces of
clothing ten into small fragments, and threepence half-
penny la copper. nigher still, they picked up a small
silver mberemope, and a pearl-handled penknife ; and con-
tinuing their search found • user, nightcap, flannel waist-
coat, wallthretick, comb, tooth-brush, and a tobacco-box ;
sod dung the satire line, from the spot where the
Perham ef the body was hand to the foot of the firstiar
patties et *labs sad ef beam were discovered, on turn-
ing ever the Wee Meese and earth which formed the dry
bed of the torrent. A mall raver watch was also found.
Every person who may examine the mountain will come to
the toncluaioa that Mr. Starr's death must have been purely
accidental. After he peened the farm servants on the
boggy ground, before he reached Llyn.flynnon-y-gwas,
he must have turned to the left, to reach the path leading
along Bwlch Cwmbrwynog to ascend the mountain ; but not
finding it, owing to the fog which at that time enveloped the
whole mountain, he continued his upward mune to the left,
until he reached tho table land of Moel-y-Cynghorion.
Here, probably, he became bewildered, and in the density of
the fog, fell over the frightful precipice amidst the rocks, on
the side of which he died. Soon afterwards, there can be
little doubt, he was covered over with the snow which re-
mained on the mountain until the latter part of April, or the
beginning of May. Being then discovered by the shepherd
or by foxes, which are abundant in that vicinity, the
body was dragged down the course indicated by the fug-
meets which have recently been picked up. An inquest will
be held on the remains of the unfortunate tourist
