TESTIMONIAL TO THE EARL 0

Fowls.
On Saturday a meeting, over which the Bishop of
Bangor presided, was held at Willis's Rooms, St. James's,
to promote a testimonial to the Earl of Powis for his
exertions in the preservation of the sees of St. Asaph
and Bangor.
There were present the Earls of Nelson and Winchil-
sea; Lords Kenyon, Lyttelton, and J. Manners; the
Bishops of Exeter, Salisbury, Oxford, and Lichfield; the
Recorder of Lond.,n; the lion. D. Pennant, M.P.; Sir
R. Glynn, Bart., M.P.; Sir F. Lewis, M.P., and other
members of Parliament and gentlemen connected with
the principality of Wales.
The CHAIRMAN having pronounced an eulogy on the
exertions of Lord Powis, and expressed the gratitude of
the principality towards him, explained the business of
the meeting.
Lord liefevox expressed the great pleasure he felt in
being permitted to propose the first resolution, to the
effect that it was desirable to exhibit, by some permanent
testimonial, the gratitude due to the Earl of Yowls from
the members of the English Church, and proceeded at
length to show the obligations conferred by his energy
on the Church and on the principality in the preserva-
tion of the sees above named.
The resolution was seconded by
The Dean of ST. AsAPH, who rejoiced to find that
the cause so ably defended by Earl Powis had found so
many friends in England. The rev. dignitary described
the idea of dividing the revenues of the extinguished see
amongst the clergy, as a sop designed to secure their
acquiescence in the scheme : the idea, however, had met
with no idulgence from the clergy.
Lord NELSON proposed a resolution that the testi-
monial should be in the form of some institution for the
permanent benefit of the Church in Wales.
This resolution, having been seconded in an appro-
priate manner by the Dean of BANGOR, was, as well as
the first resolution, carried unanimously.
The Bishop of EXETER proposed the next resolution,
" That, inasmuch as the immediate foundation of the
see of Manchester, and the early prospect of a further
extension of the English episcopate, were in a great
measure due to the persevering exertions of the Earl of
Powis, a general appeal throughout England should be
made to the members of the Church for their support in
the undertaking."
The resolution was seconded by Lord LYTTELTON
(who spoke in high praise of the perseverance of Lord
Powis in the House of Lords at a time when there ap-
peared no reasonable chance of the success of the cause
he advocated), and carried in the same manner as those
by which it was preceded.
Colonel TREVOR moved, " That the proposed institu-
tion should be an institution of scholarships and exhibi-

tions in such number as the funds to be collected would
admit of, at one or both the universities of Oxford and
Cambridge, to be called the Powis Exhibitions,' for the
maintenance of students. natives of Wales or of one of the
dioceses of St. Asaph, St. David, or Llandaff, thoroughly
acquainted with the Welsh language, and intended for
holy orders."
The resolution was seconded by the Hon. C. DOUGLAS
PENNANT, and carried.
Lord J. MANNERS proposed the appointment of a
committee to collect subscriptions and arrange the details
for carrying the former resolutions into effect, which
was seconded by the Rev. Dr. HAWTREY, and carried.
Lord Lyttelton, on the motion of the Bishop of SA-
LISBURY, seconded by the Bishop of OXFORD, was ap-
pointed treasurer ; and a vote of thanks haviug been
carried for the Prelate in the chair, which was acknow-
ledged by his Lordship, the meeting broke up.
A subscription was opened in the room, and nearly
1,000!. subscribed.

FATAL ACCIDENT TO Mit. J. ROSE, THE BREWER.
—On Saturday an inquest was held before Mr. Lewis,
the coroner for Essex, at the Coach and Horses, Leyton-
stone, on the body of Mr. .John Rose, the well-known
ale brewer of Great Ilford, who was killed, by being
thrown from his gig, under the following melancholy
circumstances:—lt appeared from the evidence that on
Thursday afternoon last the deceased, who had been out
collecting his debts, was returning home along the Ley-
tonstone-road, driving his horse at a gentle pace, when,
on passing a waggon laden with timber, the animal sud-
denly took fright, and started off at full gallop. The de-
ceased appeared to have lost all control both over him-
self and the horse; for, instead of trying to pull him in,
the reins seemed to fall from his hands on to the animal's
back. Unrestrained, the horse kept on for some dis-
tance, when, in trying to avoid a cart, the wheel of the
gig came in contact with a wall, and the deceased was
pitched out on to his head, a boy who was with him at
the time being unhurt. He was picked up in an in-
sensible state, and carried to a neighbouring public-
house. Several surgeons were in attendance upon him,
but he never recovered his sensibility, and died on
Friday. Verdict, " Accidental death." The deceased
was possessed of considerable property, and was greatly
respected.
DEPARTURE OF THE FOREIGN MAILS.—The fol-

lowing notice was issued on Saturday at the General
Post-office, St. Martin's-le-Grand:—" The next mails
for the Mediterranean, Egypt, Aden, Ceylon, India
Hong-Kong, and China, will be made up on the evening
of the 24th inst., to be forwarded by the fortnightly,
closed overland mail via Marseilles. Corunna, Vigo,
Oporto, Lisbon, Cadiz, and Gibraltar, on the evening of
the 26th inst., via Southampton. Next packet dne, the
Iberia steamer, on the 26th. Madeira, West Indies,
&c., the Avon steamer, due ton :the 22d instant.

steamer. The next mails for Sydney, New South Wales,
Australia, Van Diemen's Land, and New Zealand, will •
be made up on the evening of the 30th, to be forwarded
by the Trafalgar from Gravesend."
LOLA MANTES AGAIN:A case came on yesterday
before the Tribunal of Commerce, in which the far-
famed Lola Montes is concerned. She had, it appears,
purchased some shawls from M. Cerf Levy, and given
him in payment bills to the amount of 2,117 f. When
the bills became due, the lady had taken flight to Bavaria,
and M. Cerf Levy obtained from the Tribunal of Com-
merce a judgment by default against her, by virtue of
which he seized on a quantity of furniture left by Lola
Montes in her apartment in the Rue de Provence. M.
Dillais, the lady's counsel, yesterday entered an opposi-
tion against this judgment, on the ground that the Court
was incompetent, his client not being in business. On
the other side it was contended that she bad
the shawls to sell again at the Court of Munich, and
consequently that she had in that way acted as a trader.
The Court adjourned the case for a fortnight.—Galignani.
DISTILLATION moat SUGAR.—Messrs. Roe have
concluded their sugar operations for the season, and the
result is that they are quite confirmed in the opinion
that more than ten and a half gallons of proof spirits
cannot be obtained from the ordinary run of sugar,
whereas the excise experiments showed fully one gallon
more, say eleven and a half gallons. They tried Hon-
duras, Jamaica, and Madras sugars, but found very little
difference in the extract, and none whatever in quality.
The spirit we have seen, and it is remarkably fine.—
Dublin Mercantile Advertiser.
BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE.—The position of this
great metropolitan borough with regard to the candi-
dates for its representation is most singular. The Con-
servatives have had a host of candidates mentioned,
commencing with Sir James Hamilton, and after having
gone the round, have come back to he point whence
they started. There can be no doubt now but Sir James
Hamilton will be the Conservative candidate, for on
Saturday the walls of the borough were placarded with
announcements to that effect. It is now quite certain
that Sir Charles Napier will not, as was originally in-
tended, go to Lisbon, and in consequence it is the inten-
tion of the Gallant Admiral again to solicit the suffrages
of the electors, and an address to that effect will be
issued by him in the course of a day or two. This
circumstance, there can be no doubt, will entirely
destroy the pretensions of Lord Dudley ;, Stuart,
Mr. Sergeant Shee, and Mr. Daniel Whittle
Harvey ; indeed, two out of the three candidates
named have signified their intention of retiring in the
event of Sir Charles Napier again presenting himself.
The Gallant Admiral is about to take an excellent course
for the purpose of ascertaining the feeling of the liberal
electors with regard to himself. It will be remembered.
that upwards of 5,000 electors recorded their votes for
Sir B. Hall and Sir C. Napier at the last election, and to
every elector on the present register who so voted, Sir
Charles is about to send a circular and ticket signed by
the gentlemen who moved and seconded the nomination
of himself and Sir B. Hall, requesting them to attend a
great public meeting, and decide whether or not he shall
again stand as a candidate with Sir B. Hall for the re-
presentation, and to that decision he will of course bow.
It is rumoured that Sir James Hamilton has been put-
forward chiefly by the Dissenters, on account of his Pro-
testant principles, in opposition to those of Sergeant•
Shee as a Roman Catholic.
NOTICE TO PARLIAMENTARY VOTERS.—The fol-
lowing important notice to voters was put up yesterday
at the entrances of all the churches and chapels in the
cities of London and Westminster, and the metropolitan-
boroughs of the Tower Hamlets, Finsbury, St. Maryle-
bone, Lambeth, Southwark, and Greenwich, as regards
such boroughs in the election of Members:—" City. of

envied his being to a better position than himself, and
of a happier disposition. He at the same time expressed
the greatest regret that he had not afterwards killed
himself.—Paris paper of Friday.
