EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE.

On Thursday last Mr. William Powell, a respectable
innkeeper, also farming his own land at Tavarney-
garreg, in Ystradgyulais, was brought up in custody at.
the Petty Sessions Court, Brecon, charged with burgle-
riously breaking into the house of David Williams, at
Trecastle, in the county of Brecon. The peculiar and
mysterious circumstances of the case excited great inte-
rest, especially as one T. Williams, a. blacksmith, had been
tried and convicted at the last assizes as the perpetrator of
the.burglary, and had been removed to Woolwich, under
sentence of transportation for seven years. The principal
witness was a tinker named William Morris, who stated
that the prisoner, on the night of the burglary, brought
him to the premises of David Williams, on the pretence
-of getting him to drive some pigs to market. Prisoner
broke into the houie, and witness at once rau away.
Subsequently Williams, the blacksmith, was charged
with the burglary, and witness received from the prisoner
W. in money and a note for 10/. as bush money, the pri-
soner undertaking, by influeccing some of the jury, to
procure the acquittal of -Williams, who, however, was
convicted of the offence. Witness then communicated
with the police; as he was anxious to procure the libera-
tion of Williams whom he knew to be innocent. Several
witnesses deposed to having seen the prisoner and Morris
together on the night of the burglary, and on several oc-
casions previously and subsequently to"it. It was also
shown that Morris had received the note for 10/., and
other sums of money from th© prisoner. David Wil-
liams, of Trecastle, repeated the evidence he had given
at the last assize relating to his house being broken
open, his being awoke from sleep, and seeing a man
having -a light coming upstairs. He swore positively
now, as "he did then that the man was Tom the smith,
and that he knew him well. On cross-examination he
said he held a mortgage on the prisoner's land for 8004,,
and than the deeds were with Mr. Morgan, solicitor,'
of Liandovery. The mortgage had been originally
for 6001., but he bad advanced 2001. more than
twelve months since, and on that occasion the
prisoner was present when the deeds were deposited
with Mr. Morgan, and it was then understood that he
was to keep them until the prisoner should make ar-
rangement as to adjudgment. At the time of the bur-
glary he had an action of ejectment pending, which the
prisoner settled by giving a judgment two or three days
before the Brecon assizes. On re-examination witness
said that prisoner had been several times in his house oe
business, but he.never let him or any one see where he
kept his papers; some papers had been taken out of a
drawer on the night of the burglary, and were found in
a sieve in the back kitchen. Tne prisoner, who stated
that he would reserve his defence, was committed for

MINERAL SPRING AT. TAIN.
The inhabitants of the ,ancient, burgh of Tain were
gratified and surprised a few days since with the reported
diseovery of a mureral spring, in a corner of the .highly-
cultivated farm ot Morangie,- within half a mile of the
town. The, spot is -close to the seashore, and almost at
the foot of it. tremendous boulder, which many of our
abiseut countrymen will remember as. a conspicuous land-
mark. Old and young, high and low, were
,instantly
seen-repairing to the spot, with drinking vessels of all
sizes and. shapes, and utensils for carrying the water
to . a ;distance.... Even the medical and chemical
burghers yielded. to the. report, and satisfied them-
lielves that there was in this case truth in the rumour.
There wants a tr.aot, of dry weather to have the
Spa properly analysed, but., it is evidently . a strong
salphereous and chaly.beate spring, equal to the
far-famed Strathpeffer. The first thing to be done was
to get a road formed along the shore to render the spring
easily accessible, and instantly some of the young men ot
the town, by tuck of drum, assembled to wield the-mattock
and spade. They elected a director of the works, and pro-
ceedcd under his orders. to commence road-making at five
o'clock in the morning. This voluntary labour was con-
firmed for several mornings from daybreak until the time
for opening places of business, and-already- a considerable
extent of road has been blocked out and reclaimed, by
great exertion?, from a hog on the south and from the sea
on the north. . Some Salta! briegee or conduits have been
constructed, and named after the persons whose labours
entitled thew to teat distinction ; so that we bear of the
Ut qu', art, the Sutherland, and the Ross bridges, and long
tee structures hand down the names ot the worthy
fellowl who erected them. In a short. time and at no ex-
pense—such is the enthusiasm of the 4°mm:rep—there
will be..a fine promenade to the spring. At present the
vvell, properly cleaned out and made into a basin with
stones, is4inonged with visitors at. all hours, and sundry
invalids with improved looks and healthier complexions
point with gratitude to the spring. Some of the citizens
are planning out achemts for felling and building in con-
nexion with battling machines; and in these days of cold-
water cures, Taiu, with its local facilities, may boast of
a hydropattlic establishment. The healthy situation of
the town, its advantages for bathing, its cheap living and
lodgings, auti_cxcellent Academy, render it a very ,de-
sirable place of residence, independently of the new and
Valuable attraction of the mineral water. We hope soon
to be able to give a correct analysis of the spa, and con-
gratulate our Tain friends on their good fortune in having
made the discovery.—lnverness Courier.

A LADY " RESOLyED TO RE FREE" AND EASY.—
Mrs. Bloorter, editor of the Lily, has adopted the " short
dress and trowsers," and says in her paper of this month
that many of the women in that place (Seneca Falls) oppose
the change; others laugh; others still are in favour;" " and
many have adopted the dress." She closes the article upon
the'subject as follows :—" Those who think we look a queer'
would do well to look back a few years, to the time when
they wore ten or fifteen pounds of petticoat and bustle around
the body, and balloons on their arms, and then imagine
which eut the queerest hgure—they or we. We care not for
the fro-ens of over-tastidious gentlemen; we have those of
better taste and less questionable morals to sustain us. It
men think they would be comfortable in long, heavy tkirts,
let them pnt them on; we have no objection. We are mote
comfortable without them, and so have left them off. We
do not say that we shall wear this dress and no other, but we
shall wear it tor a common dress; and we hope it may be-
come so fashionable that we may wear it at all times and in
all places without being thought singular. We have already
