THE WEEK'S SUMMARY.  The colliers in the Ogmore Valley and at the Aber Collieries are moving for an advance of wages.  We regret to annottne the death of Mr. R. C. N. Came, of Nash Manor; the sad event occurred on Wednesday morning. By this gentleman's demise the poor have lost a good friend.  _ The trial of Frederick Hinson for the murder of Mr. Boyd and Maria Death, at Woodgreen, took place this week at the Central Criminal Court. The affair having occurred so recently the facts are well known. The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to death.  The Monarch's departure, freighted with the remains of the honoured philanthropist George Peabody, has been postponed until the arrival of the United States convoy, which cannot reach this country before the middle of next week.  The proceedings at the lest meeting of the Board of Guardians (reported in another colmnn) shows that a necessity exists for a paid porter at the Union Workhouse. Such a want ought surely to be supplied, and the authority of the Master strengthened by the assistance of an active and intelligent porter. _  The perpetrator of the murder at Blaendead, in Carmarthenshire, remains unearthed, and now that the brother-in-law of the murdered woman has been discharged, we should think that the Homo Secretary will offer a reward. A very unpleasant stigma has been cast upon Wales, owing to two or three murders having been committed of late years without the murderers being found out. The police authorities have been baffled in their efforts to unravel the secret mystery, even when aided by the experience of London detectives.  Death of R. C. N. Carno, Esq.  We regret to have to record the death of R. C. Nichell Came, Esq., of Nash Manor, which took place on Wednesday morning ahout nine o'clock. •  Mr. Came was a Barrister-at-law, Mayor of the Borough of Cowbridge, and Constable of St. Quintiu's Castle, and for many years an active magistrate for this county. Mr. Came was a Conservative in politics, and a sincere sup. porter of Church and. State. He was for many years a widower, but leaves no issue. His only brother is Dr. N. Came, of Dimlands and St. Donate Castles, both in this county. The de. ceased gentleman was well known in the neighbourhood of Cowbridge, Lantwit, Bridgend, and we may say the county generally, fur his many and sterling qualities. His lose will be more particularly felt by the inhabitants of Liswomey, to whom he was a great benefactor. He had erected a school there, and was renowned for his charity to the poor. As • landlord, no one could be more beloved by his tenants than he was, and his hand WM ever ready to assist Any of them in distress. He had lilled the office of .mayor of the ancient borough of Cowbridge, (which office is in the gift of the Marquis of Bute) for the last twenty-three or twenty-four years, having been appointed to that honourable post on the death of the late Major Edmonde,s, father of the Bev. Thomas Edmondes, the present esteemed Vicar of Cowbridge. Being brought up for the profession of the law, he was specially adapted to sit as a magistrate at the sessions weekly held at Cowbridge; and as long as his health permitted he very neldom absented himself from his duty. He had been in a very enfeebled state for a considerable number of years. Lately, however, he began to decline more rapidly, and as his medical attendants predicted in the latter part of last week he could not not possibly live more than a few days, which prediction was verified by his demise on Wednesday. The de. ceased gentleman was in his 63rd year. I
