?from the gaperar. The Bishop of Bedford, owing to continued iM-health, has felt obliged to resign his work as Bishop Sutfragen for North and East London. M. Lukanon, ex-prefect of police at Sofia, and M. .LoteS, commissary of police have be?n sentenced by "he Court of Appeal to four years' imprisonment and losa M political and civil rights for maltreatment of prisoners gaol. A gendarme concerned in the offence was "eatenced to two years' imprisonment. Of the twenty prizes awarded by the Royal Geographical Soch iety at the late Queen's Scholarship Examinations for ?"e best papers in geography, the result of which has JQst been made known, two were won by men and ?hteen by women, while of the twenty certiScates also *?Mded only one fell to a man and nineteen to women. -?s is what we have always expected. Aooie Grace Bull, aged eleven years, and her young mother were passing a level crossing on the North ataSordshire Railway, near Langton Station on Sunday "'ternoo,? when they were overtaken by a trMn.

Her skull was br?''? '"? she expired almost immediately. The ?aer {? whom she had sacrificed herself escaped "Ulujured w At C Mr ??wthen Bankruptcy Court last week (before Uw?'?'? Parkinson), Thoa.

W!n '?' °sws gives details of another sharp engagement ?M about 5.000 of the Chitralese near the Swat River, v'?. ?? country ia carrying on a war that we know ?y httle abouc. The enemy held a strong position, and ?tually made a concentrated attack on the baggage "?n. They were checked, however, by the mountain *°d cochins guns, aided by a hot nre from the Bedford- SQtre Regiment, and their discomfiture was completed ?y a brilliant charge of the Guides cavalry, who scattered, "oem on all sides. Further heavy fighting is believed to "e umament. It has been dennitely ascertained that ?"eutenants Fowler and Edwards, a jemindnr, and eight ?Poys are in the hands of Umra Khan at Barwa, twelve miles from Miakaniai, about half-way between Aladand and Dir. The Camberwell Board of Guardians has undertaken ?a experiment in colonisation which, if it has not resulted m reclaiming the men sent to work on the land, ia tanta- mount to a condemnation of the present workhouse system. The Guardians sent 110 picked inmates from their workhouse to General Booth's farm colony. They were all able-bodied and the majority of them were young. They were comfortably lodged and clothed and fed, and received Is. iL week. At the end of the twelve months thirty-four men only remained on the- farm. What be- CMce of the other seventy-six ? AU except nfteen, who were not agMn heard of," returned to the workhouse, and are now continually in and out." This result might at nrat s<ght suggest that the men were lazy vagabonds who preferred to loaf rather than to work. An analysis of the return, however, shows that only a few left the colony with a bad record. Most of them left of their own accord, and after vainly trying to get work dtiftad M<??o the workhouse. Their fate was not altogether in "tetr own hands. Over thirty of them were under twenty.nve years of age, and had spent a great part of men-lives m the workhouse. They were apparently workhouse children, who were never able to shake oS the atignm of pauperism.

It might prcpe.!y be described as Local Option Bill, the Government being desirous to introduce the principle cf lnn.t.t!on M well a.s the principle of prohih&ou. The towa councds or parish coanc? would be resp?stble for tak.ng &e poU. which would have to be preceded by a requisition from not ie.s than one-tenth of the parochial electors, aad th. areas would be in boroughs the wards and in rural districts thd puihes or wards of the parishes. A prohi. ibory r<.so:utton must be carried by a two-thirds majontv < f the electors voting anj the resolution would comeuitu force at the date of the general innusil licenaing meoting which occurred next after the expiration of three years irotr the com- mencement of the Act. which wr.uld practically give a period of foar year.' grace to present licensees. When a poll had been taken ro further poll could be taken for three years. The majority required for the r"peal of a prohibitory resolution was to be a simple majority, instead of a two-thirds majonty as in the B<!1 of 1S93. As to limitation or reduction of licences, the Bit! proplsed that it should be carried by a tumple majority. Limitation" would meau diminution of the number of licences by one-fourth, and the dis- cretion of the magistrates in thta case would absolute. The justices would also be ja;iven dMcredon where a prohibiting or limiting resolution was in force to grant licences to bona-fide hotels, eating.houaaa. or refresh- ment-rooms. Sunday closing was to be applied by a vote of the majority, and the Sunday closing resolution I would come into force at once. The only compensation which the Government could assent to was the time I compensation" which had been indicated. The Y'I "I__L -J: measure did not apply to iretand. Str &. uiarile sam the good sense of the people would not tolerate such proposals aa those which had been put before the House. How about "clubs"? Sir W. Harcourt said as the Bill would cot come into operation for three years there would be ampte time to deal with the clubs in a separate Bill. Sir W. Lawson said the Chancellor of the Exchequer had loyally fulfilled the pledges which the Liberal party had given to the country. Mr Broadhurst said that if the Government did not attempt to deal with tied houaea in Committee he should himself move an amendment on the subject. Mr Goschen criticised the Bill in hostile terms. Leave to bring in the measure was given about midnight, and the Bill was read the nrst time, the second reading being nxed provisionally for the 22nd inst. HOUSE OF LORDS, TUESDAY. The principal business was the giving of the Royal Assent by Commission to the Army Annual BUI, the Shop Bill and several other bi)ls. HOUSE OF COMMONS. TUESDAY. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that the Budget statement would be made on Thursday, May 2nd. When the questions were all disposed of and the Chancellor of the Exchequer rose to move a resolution :0£ thanks to the Speaker for his distinquished services in the chair for more than eleven years, there was great cheering from aU parts of the House. Both bia speech apd that of Mr Balfour, who seconded the resolution, were models of everything that such speeches should be. Both speeches were repeatedly cheered by the House. The addresses of the two leaders were followed by brief tributes of respect and esteem by Mr Juatin McCarthy, Mr Chamberlain, Mr John Redmond. and Mr Naoroji, after which the Speaker rose, amid protracted cheers, and, in a voice touched by deep emotion, returned thanks for the honour done to him by the whole House. The resolution was.adopted with a tend shout of approval by every member present. The motion for an address to her Majesty, praying her to confer on Mr Peel some signal mark of favour, was then moved by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, seconded by Mr Balfour, and carried with similar demonstrations of unanimous approval. The House was occupied during the remainder of the evening with the discussion of the motion for the second reading of the Naval Works Bill. The Bill was read a second time, and when the House adjourned ac midnight and the Speaker left the chair, the members rose to their feet and uncovered, and cheered him warmly as he left the House.

TO WYN. TROUT FisiirNa.-Some local gentlemen have bad excellent sport with trout in the river Dyaynni upon severe occasions during the last week. The nsh, J contrary to expectations, were found to be in excellent condition. It is a. matter of wonder to those acquainted with local waters that gentlemen from populous centres do not come down to the coast whtle there is ample sport, instead of in the dry summer months when there is a dearth of 1va.ter, 6sh, and sport. LAYING OF A FOUNDATION bTONE.—The foundation stone of the marine residence of Mrs Newbery, of the Corbett Arms Hote), was laid on Wednesday. April 3rd The site is one of the loveliest in the locality, and commands views of the Cader Idris range of mountains, the Cardigan and Carnarvonshire ccasts, the entrance to the pappy Valley, &s well ag alt the beauties of the VaIeoftheDysynni, Bardaey Island, and CarJigan Bay. The sub-aoil is dry and gravelly. It is expected that thia is the beginning of a new building era, as land is now a-va.ita.ble on the ma.in road from the Station to the Pier. „ THE SPANNING OF THE DYSYNNI RiVNR.—The Councillors accompanied by Mr R. Gillart, Mr J. Corbett's agent, and Mr Pryse H. Hughes, surveyor, watked over the Pill Way, crossed the river, and went as far as the Bryn Lowlands. It was found that the coarse of the proposed road traversed much low and swampy ground, and that the river at the point suggested for a bridge was over nfty yds wide. There is no hard and suitable material for forming and metaHIng the road to be found in the locality. In the face of these dimculties and in the absence of any in- formation as to whether the parishes of Hanegryn and Llangelynin would contribute anytime towards the expenses, the matter was left in abeyance. The con- struction of a bridge at the point suggested would un. doubtedly prove a very great advantage to that fertile part of the country which surrounda the beautiful spot known as Pant and Bryn. It would bring all that rich !oca)ity into direct connection with Towyn, and would reduce the distance to a third of what has to be travelled at present, but it is quite evident that both eides of the river must co-operate before such a desirable object can be attained. THE FLOODED MARSHES.—Just when the earth was beginning to recover from the effects of the terrible winter, and the grass was setting green again, heavy raina came and thf marshes were nooded. In some cases lands which had been coated with hundreds, if not thousands, of loads of manure 'vere submersed, and the fruit of the husba.nd- man's toil was ca.rried'away by the turbid waters, and the ara"s turned yellow and sour. The cause of all this, as has been repeatedly panted out, is the inadequacy of the outlet pipe. In the ye4rs 1863 and 1864 no teas tha,n JS30 000 were apent <m the drainage of these marshes, but, strange to say, almost every year aince, I the elements have demonstrated most conclusively that the works thfn executed at such a coat he.e been rendered nearly usetess through the ut.:er inad.quu.cy of the outlet pipes. The drainage area is eonsid,rably over 1 000 acres, and the ratable value is so great that ? rate sumcient to pay the instalments of loan and interest of a sufficient amount to defray the coat of an additional outlet would be almost imperceptible. Yet things are allowed to drift. When the attention of the Commissioners, when not in solemn conclave assembled, ib called to the matter, it is freety admitted that something should be done, but nothing is done. and the occupiers of the land have to bear the con- sequences. PETTY SESSIONS, FRIDAY, APRIL 5TH.—Before J. Huzhes Jone", in the chair Marmaduke Lewis, J. Chidlaw Roberts, H. Haydn Jones, and J. Maethlon James, Esqr?. The 2/o<e Mr Renry Owen .-The Clerk (Mr David Evans) read a letter acknowledging the vote of con- dolence passed at the laat Court with the relatives of the late Mr Henry Owen, a member of the Bench.

Ayeeiment.-Mr W. R. Davies applied for xn order of ejectment against Eva.n Jones, PwUbedr. Pt-nnal, of a cottage and land. Mr Davies stated the facta. and the Bench, in view of the fact that the defendant had been altowed to remain after the notice had expired, refused the order. ZarceMy.—Elizabeth Jones, wife of Henry Jones, mason, Towyn, Red Lion-street, was charged with having stolen a silk anbrella from 8, High-street, Towyn, the property of Mrs Annie Lee, a vianor.—Jane Davies, 8, Htgh-street, said that Mrs Lee resided with her. On the 2Sth March, missed a umbrella from the stand in the passage, and gave information to P.S. Hughes. The accused had called offering her daughter as a servant. The umbrella was worth 12a. She called the second time on the 1st April, and asked Mrs Lee to forgive her for taking the umbrella and selling it. She added that she had picked it up on the pavement opposite the china abop. Aaked her in Welsh what she had done with it and she said she had sold it to Sitvanus Hughes for Is 6d. Mrs Lee said the woman was not speaking the truth and that she could not forgive her until P.S. Hughes had been seen. She then s:ud that if the lady would forgive her she would admit that she had taken it from the stand.—The accused denied that she had asked for forgiveness, but witness adhered to her statement.—The accused said she asked for for- giveness because she had sold it, but witness still adhered her statement.—Mrs Lee said the accused on seeing her asked You have lost an umbrella ?" Witness re- plying that she had, the accused said she had picked it up. Witness asked her why she did not take it to the Police Station like an honeat woman and she re- plied that she had sold it to Sil Hughes for Is 6d, and aaked for forgiveness for having sold it.—Silvanus Hughes said he bought the umbrelta on the represent- ation that it belonged to a wom?n who was outside in theatreet. He had seen the name on the umbrella and the accused said it was the name of the woman out. side.—The accused was 6ned 15s, and ordered to pay costs. Begging.-Five tramps, charged with begging, were each sent to go*l for 14 days.
