In North Wales, a division.of Great Bri- 
tain which has been long in @ dormant state,

what has been done hy this gentleman, iu the 
short period of six years, will shew how 
greatly proprietors in this part of the king- 
dom might improve their rents, yet better 
the condition of the lower classes of the com- 
munity. The public improvements now exe- 
cuting in North Wales, from this gentleman’s 
plans, are the following :--1. A new harbour 
at Porthdynlleyn; whence a safe and con- 
stun? possage may be effected to Dwblig, as 
there is, at all times, abundanee of water for 
passuge boats. This great undertaking, of 
which Mr. Jones Parry is also an eminent 
promoter and holder of shares, will soon be 
completed, 9%. Avnew road from this harbour 
to join the English roads, hy which thirty 
miles will be saved: to travellers from Lon- 
don to Dublin, independently of much time, 
and avoiding the delay and‘danger of crossing 
tke Conway and Bangor ferries. 5. Anim- 
proved line of perfectly level road fromethe 
harbour of Portidynlleyn through the new 
town of Tre-Madoc to Worcester and Lon- 
don by which forty miles will be saved be- 
tween Dublin and Bath, Cheltenham, and 
the Western towns, This road leadsthrough 
very beautiful and romantic scenery. 4. An 
excellent. road: from. Pont Aberglasslyn to 
Tre-Madoc. This was marked out om the 
ground by Mr. Ms own hand, assisted by 
Dr. Morris, of Morva Lodge, on the sides of 
mountains so steep, that a man could scaveely 
dare to walk upright. It is now finished, 
The improvements going, forward at Ire- 
Madoc, are—A harbour on the south-east 
boundary of the estate, viz. Ynys-Congor. 
¥. A canal from this harbour tothe town »of 
Tre-Madoc—finished. 3. the town oi ‘Ure-
