CHESHIRE AND WALES.

The Baptist chapel at Lymm, Cheshire, has been duly
authorised for the solemnization of marriages therein.
We feel pleasure in announcing that the sheriff of this
city, Mr. Peter Eaton, has, in a spirit of true kindness
and liberality, presented to the poor widows of Chester
200 loaves of bread.—Chester Courant.
The Carnarvon Herald reports that some labourers
stripped a boy, three years old, of his clothes, rubbed him
all over with coal tar, dressed him again, and then be-
smeared his clothes with the offensive liquid.

THE NORTH WALES MUSSEL TRADE.—A very remu-
nerative trade is springing up in North Wales, originating
in the more extensive working of the various fisheries
along the coast. The whole of the seaboard of this part
of the country abounds with fish of every description,
which until very recently was caught and sold only for
local use, but the opening of the Chester and Holyhead
Railway appears to have opened a new market in the
northern and midland districts. It will scarcely be credited
that during the last two months no fewer than 830 tons of
mussels have been sent per rail from Conway to Man-
chester. This large quantity of shellfish was packed in
bags, 10 of which made a ton. and were disposed of at the
rate of from Is. 6d. to 2s. per bag. Employment has thus
been afforded to a large number of men, women, and
children, for even the latter have been engaged in the col-
lection of the fish on the shore, between high and low
water mark, and there can be no doubt that in a short
time the valuable and hitherto neglected fisheries on the
Welsh coast will be fully and profitably worked, affording
a number of small coasting vessels regular employment
and adequate remuneration. Oyster dredging is now car-
ried on to a great extent in Cardigan bay, there being 17
vessels employed, which average each 1,000 fish per day,
and this large number is chiefly sent to the Liverpool and
Lancashire markets.
