CARDIFF CCIENCE AND A LIT CLASSES. DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZES. ADDRESS BY THE VERY REV. THE DEAN OF LLANDAFF. ^On Wednesday evening, at the Assembly-room, o-frn-hall, Cardiff, the Vary Bav. the l>ej.n of landaS distributed the prizes and certidcatea '^Warded by the Science and Art Department to ,the students of the Cardiff schools, on acooant of ^ork done during the session 1878 9. The great interest taken in the proceedings was evidenced by the faot that the Assembly-room was crowded io every part, even before the proceedings were /Commenced. AmoDgat those who oooupied seats JpOH the platform and were in the room were:— •the Very Kev. the Dean of LlandaS, the Arch- deacon of Llandaff, Dr. Vaohell, Messrs. B. O. Jones, J. C. Fowler, Aldermen Evans and Lewis, Messrs. Charles Thompson, W. Rsnnteldt, Wm. Sanders, J. H. Biches, P. Davis, J. G. FrojS&*< W. Thqmas, E. Seward, W. H. Thomas, W-,J' Trounce, Bees Jones, J. L. Wheatley (town oler* Price, W. G. Bobinaon, &c. _a Before the commencement of the prooeeaings, ^derman EVANS stepped forward, and said that the unavoidable aosence of the mayor he had Wi requested to ask the Very Beverend the Dean if Llandaff to take the chair as well as to dis. fribute the prizes, which he was sure he would «0 to the approbation of them aU. This having been seconded by Mr. REES JONES, the very reverend gentleman aaaumed the lhair amidet hearty applause. Mr. Thobpb, deputy town-olerk, in response tQ the request of the chairman, read the aanual £ port, which traced the history and progress .JIIft.de by the science and art classes since tkey were started in 1865, with only t\1to students, and proceeded to remark that now that the town council had taken suoh .liberal steps, the committee would soon be in a position to compete with the higher schools ia the fingdom. There were about 150 schools of art Ji Great Britain, and the Cardiff School was far item being the lowest. Having narrated the atrangements tcade by the South Kanaiogfcou ^thcritiea, the report proceeded to state that the ?*8ult of the past year's work had been as fol- :—Freehand drawing 13 certificates, and l*o prizes and certificates; against eight cacti- S5at< a and no prizes laat year. Model drawing certificates; against five certificates, and two and certificates last year. Geometry: Four ^tiiicates, and two prises and eertiaoated, s8airet four certificates, and two prizes and •WifioateB last year. The report con- "toded by saying I. It 13 thus evident that ia tery reaprot, except model drawing, the standard *eaci d by the school is higher this year than |*Bt; .>nr. While throughout the country there «aa 1 sou a general wail at the unfortunate results or the examinations, we can congratulate our- that we have not suffered." 1' o Very Rev.

The institution was begun in 1372, and in the following year received its first grant of £ 60 from Government. List yoar the grant was £79. The free library coaianrtse had given material assistance, and he always felt that that was a right course to be adopted. An effort had been made to get a new building for ths free library and these schools. He regretted that that effort was unsuccessful, especially as Cardiff was now about carrjing out such a scheme. The committee had secured new preni^es in tbe Albert,hall Chambers, and that coat £ZOO to furriah. He paid a tribute to thg memory of Mr. Nelson Hewertaon, who had eo kindly bequeathed a sum of money to these echcola and now, through the kindness of Mrs. Hewertson, the sum of £1,427 103 had been paid into the National Provincial Bank of Erg'and to the oredit of the sohools. (Loud applauee ) He congratulated the town on the possession of this valuable institution, and baapoke for it greatly increased interest and support, epeoially drawing attention to the afternoon drawing CIsbs at the new rooms, as well as tha ordinary c^eses in the evening.

I saw two bottles on tbe chest of drawers. One contained prussic aoid, and one had cuntained ohlorodyne. Tbe cork was out of the latter bottle. I had been attending the deceased, and last saw him on the 24th of Decem- ber, at the surgery. On the 26th he had medicine. He WTOte a letter for it He suffered from shingles. 1 die not leconii^eiid him to take chlorodyne. When I taw the bottle containing prussic acid I put my no.«e to his month, but I did not detect any smell of pinkie acid, nor of obloro. dyne. He bad the appearance of having died in his sleep. His position was quite C1I.FY and 1 atuial, aid tbe appearance was as if he had died from chlorodyne. The bottle of cbiororj lie and a wine glass were near together, and there wae chlorodyne in the glass. The prDeMo acid bottle had leather drawn over the stopper. He was out of health, and an overdose of chlorodyiie would have a greater effect than otherwise. That bottle would noutain 15 drops of prut*jo acid, and a grain or two of morphia. A nittn who L&d'been ia the habit of taking large quantities would not have bought a half ounce bottle. It would be more likely to affect when lyirg down than whan walking about.

The lividity tihowed more in the head and neck. The ears were blue the nails of the Brgera and toss were blue. The fingers were closed, but not cramped. The tooa also were slightly contracted. One eye was partly open and the pupil dilated. There was also a certain anonnt of lividity about the trunk and slii g es on the left breast. Oil opening the scalp I noticed a groat amount of venous congestion in that aubatanoo, and the pericranium. On removing the skull cap I found the dura mater firmly adherent, on the left side, to the bone. There was great venous congestion. There was also an efiusion of serum between the other membrares and signs of old adhesions, apparently cf either a blow or other inflammation, whioh must have occurred some time ago. In the chest the right lung was greatly congested, but the left was perfeci with the exception of a emsll portion of the lower lobe, whioh showed Eigns of incipient disease. The heart was healthy. No valvular disease, but a quantity of fat on, not fatty degeneration, On opening the esophagus slightly, before it was tied, we noticed the emell of hydrocyanic (or prussic) acid. The Esophageal and pyloric extremities of the stomach 1 immediately tecured without opening, and on piecing that organ into a proper vessel and apply. mg the nitrates (if silver teat, I found that this, which is called the vapour test, showed that prueeic acid was there. This fact, joined with the blue appearance of the nails and ears, the partial lividity of the body, the closed hands, and the partial contraction of tha toes, and the general venous congestion, leads me to give it as my opinion that death was caused by hydrocyanic acid. I have not tbe slightest doubt Mr. Fox died from prussic acid. The Foreman Can you inform the jury what is the smallest quantity of prussic aoid which would occasion death r Mr. Cooke: That I cannot say without referring. I can give you what Professor Taylor says. Mr. Melville Brewer That would depend. upon whose it was. The Coroner And whether he was in the habit of taking prussic acid. Mr. Cooke read an extract from If Taylor's Jurisprudence," showing that 20 drops was the smallest fatal test, and that two drachms were fatal in from two to ten minutes. The Foreman asked if he could tell how many drops of prussic acid a half-ounce bottle of chlorodyne would contain ? Mr. Ucoke said ordinary chlorodyne contained 15 drops to the half-ounce. The Foreman: As that bottle of ohlorodyne was found in deceased's bedroom, do you think it probable that his death waa caused through taking the chlorodyne P Mr. Cooke Certainly not. There was no trace of chlorodyne. The smell of chlorodyne is very powerful. Fruseic acid was not conveyed through chlorodyne. Mr. Melville Brewer explained that prusau acid is very volatile, and it might have passed off before he got thtire at njon on the day of Mr. Fci's death. A Juror: Ie there any prueEic acid in that bottle cf chlorodyne ? • Mr. Cooke: I cannot detect any. I should have expected to have found some trace of ohloro- dyne, if he had taken it, as in the case of prussic acid. A Juror: What waB the position of the bottle containing chlorodyne? Mr. M. Brewer On the lat of January that bottle was in a box. I took the stopper out, and found it was chlorodyne. I opened the bottle of prueeic acid, which was on a chest of drawers, and I knew it immediately by the smell. The same day I took from the box the other bottle. A Juror I think on Saturday you said you fonnd a bottle of chlorodyne without a cork by the side of a wine glass, and that in the glass was chlorodyne?, Mr. M. Brewer Yes. A Juror: Did you smell any prussic scid there ? Mr. M. Brewer: There were only two or three drops in the glass. Prussic acid is so volatile in half an hour it would have entirely evaporated. Supposing that prussic acid had been in that glass, at the end of an hour or two I could not bave detected it, it is so volatile. It would have been a very eaBy thing to have taken one bottle for another. It was here stated in conversation that on Saturday the deceased's brother said the deceased was in the habit of going to bed without a candle, and no candle was in the bedroom that morning; so that he might easily have taken the wrong bottle.. f „ The Coroner said the simple question for the jury was, whether deceased took prussic acid to poison himself, or accidentally in mistake for ch!oroèYDe. The jury held a consultation m private for a few minutes, and returned a verdict, That the deceased came by his death by taking prussic acid in mistake for chlorodyne." This closed the inquiry. The furcral of this lamented gentleman took placs on Wednesday morning at the graveyard of the parish church, Malpas, and waa strictly of a private character. The arrangements were en- trusted to Messrs. Benjamin Evans and Co., of the London House, Mr. Evans personally super- intending the eame. The coffin, which was of solid English cak with braBS mountings, was supplied by Messrs. Palmer and Son. The inscription notified tbat the deceased was 60 years of age. Upon the coffin was placed a cross and wreath of choice flowers and ferns. The funeral procession walked from the residence of the deceased to the church, the remains being followed by six children, three brothers (Revs. Thomaa Fox, Edward Fox, and Mr. G. Fox), Rev. E. Dendy, brother of deceased's wife, and the servants of the establish- ment On the corpse arriving at the gate of the churchyard, it was met by the Rev. E.

''-ALARMING FIRE IN CARDIFF.
ALARMING FIRE IN CARDIFF. Shortly before midnight on Monday an alarm of fire was raised in St. Mary street, Cardiff, when it was discovered that the stables and workshops situated in Gay nor's court, at the lower part of that street, were in flames. The premises belong to Mrs. Evans, lessee of the Talbot Arms; by whom they have been let to Mr. C. Griffiths, mail contractor and cab proprietor, who uses the ground portion of the building as a stable, and has sublet the loft above to Mr. SJmea, coachbnildor. The entire building, consisting of rough stone walls and a tiled roof, covers an area of about 60 feet by 3u feet. When, at about five minutes to twelve, the fire was discoveied, Mr. Thomas, of the Rapier Arms, clot-e by, and Inspector Tamblyn succeeded, with much cifficulty, in running oat of their stalls eight horses belonging to Mr. Griffiths, who had left his stables about half an hoar previously, when everything appeared to be safe aa usual. Shortly afterwards the fire engine arrived, in charge of a etrong body of police, who, with admirable judgment, "planted" thenselvea in different positions along the walls of Gaynor's court, and commenced playing the hose upon the noW furiously burning mass with considerable vigour, though not with the desired effect. The stables contained a comparatively small quantity of • hay and the workshop an amount of stackad timber, three butcher's traps, a wagonnette, carpanter's tools, &0., all of which, together with the struc- tural woodwork, readily sueoumbed to the flames. It was at this moment the possible extent of the disaster could best be 'realised. The burning premiees are situated in one of the moat densely populated paris c-f the town. The public- houses and shops forming the St. Mary etreet frontage barely indioate the extent of the inhabited property behind and at either side. Gaynor's court ia a closely-built congeries of small houses, teeming with residonts of the poorer classes, who flocked to their doors or rushed to and fro in dismay, while the brilliancy of the aBCending flames made the upper rooms of the several dwellings extending from St. Mary street to Caroline street visible as noon-day, with the faces of the oooupiera eagerly Looking at the burning mass close by. Fortunately a very slight wind was blowing at the time, or the result must have been one of the mo jt •disastrous ever caused by fire at Cardiff. As it was, the untiring efforts of the poliaa were equal to preventing the flames spreading beyond tha building first attacked, which in the space of half an hour was completely gutted. The total loss consequent upon the fire is variously estimated at from wE500 to £ 1,000, which is covered by in- surance.
--IMPORTANT GAME TRESPASS…
IMPORTANT GAME TRESPASS APPEAL IN DEAN FOREST. On Wednesday, at the quarter sessions at Gloucester (before Mr. Sumner, chairman, and the county justices), the appeal of Mr. Jamea John James, a solicitor, of The Haggins, St. Eriavel's, v, the magistrates of the Coleford beach was entered for hearing, and was an appeal to which great interest will be attached. Mr. J. D. Sims, with whom was Mr. Moreton Brown, Oxford Circuit, instructed by Mr. Edward Gold- ring, of Cinderford, Forest of Dean, appeared for the appellant; and Mr. G. Griffiths, with whom was the Hon. Mr. Parker, were instructed by Mr. Fryer, clerk to the magistrates, for the respon- dents. The main facts will be remembered by a brief reference thereto. In the month of November Mr. James, the appellant, with Mr. Vaughan, who is a lieutenant in the Forest Volunteer Company (Coleford), were ont shooting npon lands of the first-named gentleman. They were near the Bearce Common, when William Bennett, the keeper, swore that as he was standing on the bank on the opposite side of the cover, 300 yards away, he saw the dogs of Messrs. James and Vaughan hunting about the cover, and eventually a hare or rabbit ran out, when both fired, and he saw a boy run and piok it up. He then proceeded to another cover at Willea Croft, where, secreting himself, he swore that the parties came up and pnt their four dogs into the cover, when a cook pheasant rose and wasfired at by both gentlemen. Mr. Vaughan was associated in the magisterial proceedings, but at the outset of the hearing the sum- mons WaS withdrawn against him at the wish of Colonel Elrington, who livea at Clearwell Court, and in whom, under Mr. QnivD, the proprietor, the shooting is vested. Mr. Vaujzhan, both at Coleford. and on Wednes- day under the appeal, emphatically denied material points cf the evidence of Bennett, the keeper, stating that no rabbit or hare was shot at ntar the Bearce, but that a covey of partridges only were ehot at, a bird of whioh was killed, the seme having risen iu Mr. James's field; and, second, he denied that four, or any, dogs were incited into the Willea Croft cover, and that a little dog only chasing a rabbit from Mr. James's field, entered. It was sworn by the appellant, who was corroborated by a witness, that a pheasant did rise, as stated by the keeper, but, that instead of rising in the cover, it first ran up Mr. James's hedge-row, that then he fired both barrels as the bm" n id tha cover, but he missed it. These shortly are the facts. Several cases were cited, and the chairman and magis- trates retired to consider their decision, when the former, cn resuming his seat, said that the majority of the court thought they ought to allow the appeal with costs, and that they ought not to grant a cafe. (Several of the local magistrates were present during the hearing of the appeal, inducing Mr. Quinn and Colonel Elriagton.
THE DISGRACEFUL HOAX ON .,THE…
THE DISGRACEFUL HOAX ON THE GOVERNOR OF newgats. The Home Office is engaged in investigating the extraordinary attempt to interfere with the carrying out of the capital Bentence upon the murderer, Charles Shnrety, on Monday. The letter purporting to be signed by Mr. Liddell, in the absence of the Home Secretary, directing the governor to postpone the execution until he heard further from Mr. Cross, was enclosed in an offioial envelope, headed Çn her Majesty's Service," but curiously enough it bore the stamp, not of the Home Office, but of a neighbouring public office. It is to be hoped that the perpetrator of this dis- graceful hoax may be discovered.

THE THIRD GA. V. CONCERT.
THE THIRD GA. V. CONCERT. Our readers w'U doobtleca be glad to be ■t u/uced. in reference to this forthoomiug concert, hat tho artist- e. as previ 'a&!y announced, are ii oae of ber Majesty's Opera, aud that this is the s iy t ecacioii curios? tte year on whioh these L«iebratt)d efiijeors v,ill appear in Cardiff. In the $gramme a felection d ti va English ballads is o oet harmoniously introduced amongst more si-ietd ixubic. The oonoert is calculated to ylesBe everybody, and for that reason it is to be m commenced to all. Madame Marie Raze, a lady v. hohub gained a great name by her admirable ringing and acting, will Bing" The bend of the liver" (by Blumenthal), "My love faraway" (by jJalfe), and v, love, come back" (by Pease), all of whiuh have been specially composed for her. Mclle. Sacconi is one of the best harpists in Europe, fur.d she will doubtless reoeive a most hearty wel- come here. Mr. Carleton will sing The Village Blacksmith," a song of whioh we can never grow tired and Signor Brignoli will render Hatton'a Good-bye, Sweetheart, Good-bye." Madame Marie Boze, who will be most favourably remain* bered here, has made a most auooesBfnl tour in America. She returned to England last season, and made a great sensation at her Majesty's Opera. She will sing the magnificent air "Robert Toi qui j'aime with a harp accompaniment by Mdlle. Lacccni, and we are Bure the audience will have a rich treat. Mdlle. lima di Murska has been absent from England for some years; she is a stranger to Cardiff, but her great reputation ought to ensure her a splendid reception. tihe is to sing the valse song, "Ombra Leggiera," from '• Dinorah," and the lovely "Una Voce," so well known to every musioian; she will also take part in the quartette "Chi mi Free* from Lucia di Lammermoor," with Mr. Carleton, Signor Brignoli, and Signor Sneini. Mdlle. Darialli, the new Russian con- tiailo, is alfo a stranger here she has achieved fei fiat (ucccbs at St. Petersburg, and she will sing the t cavatiua 0 mio Fernardo" from "La Fevoyita," and that general favourite, II 11 fepgreto." She and Mr. Cirleton will also sing the cnet In quest euol," ftom the same opera and tf is gentleman is to give us the fine air, "Toreador." from Bizet's famous oper/i Caiuien." Signer Brignoli is to sing the pleasing serenade, "Com 'e gentil," and he will join in tha duet, "TElisir d'amore," with Sigxior Susiui. Tha last-named artiste will rilig f<ou piu audrai," from Mozart'a L •\Nizzo di Figaro," whioh will give ample scope icr the display of his fine bass voice. We tiufet the artistes and the officers of the oorps will be rewarded by a crowded bouse, particularly as I&st gear's conoett was an actual loss to the band fund. It is to be hoped that tho loss will now be made np, and that the result will be. moreover, a fcutetamial addition to the fund. It would be a g;'fct, pity if these concerts had to be discontinued through lack of proper support.
