such a length does it appear his neglect had been carried,

THE ROADS IN MONMOUTHSHIRE AND BRECONu.
SHlRE.—Great complaints are made of Ike state of the
roads about Br', nwawr, Beautort, Abercarne, Victoria,
&c. The want of fences at dangerous places, and of di-
rection•posts and milestones, are serious public evils,
which ought to be immediately remedied. In Brecon-
:.hire (as a correspondent Mates) there is hardly a mile-
stone to be be met with that is legible; and as to direc-
tion-posts, they are almost a nonentity. In travelling
from Hay to Brecon all persons insist have noeeti this.
Y. t, till lately, the tolls of Breconshire were more than
treble the amount of am y in the county of Carmarthen,
and four times as high as in the Pontypool district,
v here greater improvements have been made and less
i tolls chi:trued than in any trust west of the Severn. As
a proof, the charge for one horse with a gig is 3d. and a
ticket, to clear the next gate. At every turning there is
a directing post distinctly marking the distance to the
next town arid there is a milestone at every mile. The
contrast is compl IA by the Abergavenny roads. No-
thing can he wor,e than the route from that town towards
.
Newport, till you get to the Pontypool trust.
