THE ROYAL VISIT TO WALES.

CARNAR VON, FRIDAY.
Making due allowance for the difference in the
population and wealth of Ireland and Wales, the welcome
which the Prince and Princess of Wales will receive upon
their arrival in the principality to-morrow will not suffer
by a comparison with the hcilliaat reception which their
royal higlinemes have mat with in Ireland. The original
'Menthe of giving to the royal party merely such a greet-
ing as they are semilmeed to receive in paring through a
Bntiali town in the coarse of • journey has expanded until
it has assumed a national aspect, and the reception com-
mittee do not lose any opportunity of stating that the
welcome is to be that of the Welsh nation. Oarnarvoa,
which, by reason of the possession of a castle in
which the first Prince of Wales is popularly supposed to
have bean born, has been selected ea the locality attest
for the reception of his latest anoomeor, is making
great efforts to prove itself worthy of the occa-
sion. At crap convenient place along the route
of the procession arches more or ire elaborate in m
hire have been erected, and all the shops end principal
' homes are already decked with evergreens of '
them dens for illuminatioesag,vidable7nTe
ordinary buainw of the town appears lobe at a 'Madill'',
the attention of the inhabitants being wholly engrossed by
the approaching festival. Workmen have been very busy
for some days peat in the easiest easels, sad a Magma.
Ling hall in whisk 600 guests are provided for has been
run up in the courtyard. The Eagle Tower, wherein ac-
cording to tradition the son of Edward the Pint was
born, bas Moo transformed into& suite of splendid retiring
rooms for the accommodation of their royal h4hneeeee
previous to taking their seats at the banquet. The stone
walla have been tastefully dressed, the floor boarded and
carpeted, and the sky, which for pentodes has been
the only roof of the apartment, has been temporarily shot
oat by a more oubstential ogling, from the centre of
which hangs a splendid madembruk.
According to the wage ts as set forth is the
official programme, the Priacand Princess will be met

to hope that the society may not be compelled by poverty
to abandon any mission to India. But at the same time
oar neglected opportunities of serving God elsewhere must
be kept in view. The society now supporta wholly or in
part 483 ordained missionaries, whom work in 1867, in 40
dioceses, is detailed in the annual report. They me thus
distsibuted-248 is America sad the West ladies, 73 in
Africa, 107 in Asia, St in Australia and the Pacific, 1 in
Europe. Thirty of these ere native 'demon= in
India. There are also 660 catechists and lay teachers,
meetly natives, in heathen countries ; about 106 students
in seven colleges abroad. The remainder of the reportdescribes the operations of the society for the year in
various parte of the world, and refers to the Lam-
beth Conference, and the important Latham,* it wee likely
to eriseise.

The Bishop of CAPE Town, who was much cheered,
moved a revolution, " That the colonial church, moat in-
adequately endowed, and not yet complete, in its organise-
two, has a powerful claim for our sympathy and support,
especially to assist it in • within its fold our emi-
grant countrymen, and to stre n the union which sub-
eists between the branches of our church."
The Bishop of Trauma= seconded the resolution, which
was carried.

A second resolution, proposed by Sir H. &ATLI
8.C.8., and seconded by the Bishop of KILLALOI, de-
claring "that.the vast fields of missionary enterprise pro-
videntially laid open before the church of England call
upon us for • greater effort than any which has yet been
mad, in order to enter on them effectually, and to bring
our heathen fellow subjects into the fold of Christ," was
likewise adopted.
After • vote oL thanks to the most rev. the president,
the meeting was dismissed by his rarsoe with the bene-
diction.

Besides the speakers, Viscount Sidozonth, the Bishop of
Ely, Archdeacon Mackenzie, the Rey. C. Page, and the
Rev. If. W. Mayow were oa the platform.

the eventual adjustment and settlement of the compensa-
tions as between the board and the railway company be
determined by Lord Stanley, or another referee appointed
as in the 61st section of the company's act of 1864, and
as though in all respects such adjustment and settlement
were expressly comprised in that section of such act as a
matter of reference, the deposit in moieties being pro-
visional only, and not to be taken as any indication of the
actual respective sad relative liabilities of the parties,

respects in the same situation as if these resolutloos had
not been pared."
Mr. Flimsy moved the adoption of the report, which
was ultimately agreed to.

THE FENIAN TRIALS AT THE OLD
BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)

(Bean fiord Chief Justice Cockburn awd Bares
Bralimea.)

John reake, being examined by Mr. Baker Grime, de.
ix pi d—l am • boot and shoemaker, end reside In Bow
street, Glasgow. I know a man named M`Nakty. I hams
known him about two years. I recollect being in his hones
pp a Saturday in December last. I was coming from my
marter's shop, after getting paid, when I met • friend of
true, who is • shoemaker also. I asked him to &com-
pany me to M'Nulty's, and he agreed to do so.
When we went into M'Nulty's I saw a strange
whom I had not seen before. WI/why was there at
the time. That man in the dock (Barrett) is the strange
M`Nalty asked me if I would oblige him by doing •
Tale job for him, and I asked him what kind of a job was
it. He replied soling and heeling and welting a
rr,ir of boots. My friend and I then commenced
repairing the boots in M'Nulty's shop. When
we sat down to repair the boots, the strange
man called M'Nolty's son, and sent him for the
Eaning Pod. This was between 3 and 4 on the Satur-
day. I had left off work at 9 o'clock in the morning.
The boy brought in the paper and the strange man read it.
Be read about the explosion in Ckrkenwell. I had beard
of the explosion in the morning from our foreman. My
friend and I finished the boots between 6 and 7 o'clock,
and then the strange men went away and took the boots
with him.

By the Attorney-General—l worked for Mr. M'lntosh,
Stockwell-street. I left Wlntosh's employ about two
months ago. I now work for Mr. Martin, of the Callow-
gate. Ido not know James Miller, but I heard of him in
4:,4sgow. Between 9 o'clock in the morning and the time
I went to M'Nulty's I was at different places, amongst
where in the house of a man M'Cann. I was walking
:lout till I went to M•Nulty's. I met the other man ac-
caudally in Stockwell-street. I was paid at 2 o'clock on
tte Saturday. I received lbs. When I went into
11'Nulty's the stringer was sitting. I think the clothes
be wore then were the earns he has on now. He
wore a felt hat which was round at the top.
I 4saw 11`Nulty the next week. I am in the habit of fre-
, roily calling at his house. I do not know M'Manus,
I have heard his name mentioned. I believe M`Nulty
re:rived a letter from 111`blanna. M`Nulty came to my
Lo4.se. The name of the other man who assisted me in
repairing the hoots is Walsh. I had heard of Barrett and
...Neil being taken up at Glasgow before that. I cannot
say bow long after Barrett's arrest the letter was received
!rote M•3lanus. We are all lodging now near Fleet-street.
Se-examined by Mr. Greene—l went to receive my
n.4,ney at 2 o'clock on the Saturday. While passing down
t.t street I met Walsh, and then we went to M`Nulty's.
Ey Baron Bramwell —When Barrett read about the ex-
;',.ion we commenced talking about it. I said it was a
.•:y bad thing. I don't remember any particular remark.
I ..e not remember whether the shoe I mended was the left
right.
!.y the Lord Chief Justice—The first day I beard of the
• ,plosion was the same day I was at M`Nulty's Donee. I
prepared to swear that.. . . .

lihn`Walsh examined—l live at 78, Stockwell-street,
ueow, and am a shoemaker. I work at Neeson's. I
ane a man named N'Nulty, and I also know Peaks.
y are both shoemakers. I recollect meeting Peak.
• Stockwelbstreet on a Saturday in last December. We
to 11'Nulty's' where we saw a man who was waiting
have his boots dose. That man at the end of the
deck (Barrett) is the man I saw there. M'Nulty ssked Peaks
••• do the job. Peaks inquired when he wanted them
lone, and M'Nulty replied in two hours. Peaks said he
,oald not do them within that time, and I then offered to
•!n one of the boots. We then set to work and finished
the boots. I had never seen the strange man before. He
i.ent out for a paper which was bought, and he read an
Account of an explosion.
By the Lord Chief Justice—l don't remember whether
Le read anything else in the paper.
Examination continued—l heard of the explosion in the
morning. I saw it announced in the placards of the newe-
l. .pers. I had not heard anything of the particulars of the
explosion until the strange man read them. Wo finished
the boots about half-past 6.
By the Attorney-General—Mr. Neeson, for whom I
worked, is a manufacturer. M'Nulty did not work for
him while I was employed there. The stranger wore dark
lothes and a bolt hat with a round top. I know James
Mullen, he worked at Notion's while I was there. Ido
aot know Irfilanna. I heard that Barrett and O'Neill had
taken up in Glasgow. I taw M'Nulty after that, but
uid not tell me anything about a letter.

t...e known since last August, when I met him in •
sic ball in Glasgow. 1 generally saw him once a week
.tt• r. I recollect the time of the executions in Man-

Earon Braniwell—You mean the murder of Brett?
:Ir. Greene -Yee, my lord.
loon Bramwell—That is the proper way to describe it.
Examination continued—There was a demonstration on
;.art of the Irish in Glasgow at that time. I saw Mr.
orry and Michael Barrett there. The object of the
:...mnstration was to petition the Home Secretary. The
e , ning I heard Barrett say his face bad been almost
str.,yri by a torchlight. When I saw him in August
Lc had In.lit small whiskers. When I saw him after the
.lemondr ton he had no whiskers. The droppinp
frwn ti.. t“reh-lights had signed them. After this it
• movo.ed that we should have a demoristra-
hon in honour of the executed men from Glasgow.
• to Dalbath Cemetery. The meeting to
:mine the demonstration was to take place on Friday
u. qbt. The meeting was held, and Mr. M'Corry, the editor
• ' one of the Glasgow papers,presided. A communication
made by Mr. M'Corry to the committee in reference
ti• the catholic bishop of Glasgow. The purport of the
,o.t.ieuni,ition was that, if the demonstration did not take
1.1 . , a solemn requiem for the repose of the men's souls
• be °tiered. In consequence of this the demonstra-
',ll was odoned. A gentlemen named Gallagher and
h-,trctt were present at the meeting. It was held on the
to of the kith of December, at the Bell Hotel. I maw
a Tett once or twice after that, and then I beard of his
rr.••t. I have not seen him since his arrest till now.
