I "1t 1.1 @:It .1 i SHteMg ggail SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1901. COLOFN Y CYMRY. GAN "IDRISWYN." CEXEDLAETHOLDEB CYMRU. Y mae y cyfarfod o Gymry ieuainc o wahanol ranau 0 Gymru a gynaliwyd yn I Nghaerdvdd yr wythnos ddiweddaf yn ddigon i argyhoeddi pawb o'n brwd- frvdedd cenedlaethol ac i brofi fod yn gorwedd yn isel yn nyfnderoedd enaid y Cymro ac yn y plygion nesaf at ei galon ddyheuad anfarwol—dymuniad na ddi- ffoddir mohono byth-am gael chwareu teg i fyw fel efe ei hunan a phob cym- horth i berffeithio ei gymeriad ac awyr glir ac iach a daear fras i ymddadblyga i'w lawn dwf. Y mae hwn, yn ddiau, yn naturiol i bob cenedl, ond yn fwy felly i genhedloedd byehain gorthrymedig, yn byw mewn gwlad ramantus fel Cymru ac y maa'n angerddoli a chryfhau, ac, yn wir, yn ymliyfhau, yn ol maint yr aberth fydd cenedl wedi ei wneud er cadw ei hunaniaeth. Does yr un wlad wedi gwneud mwy na Chymru; y mae ei dolydd a'i dyfFrynoedd a'i mynyddoedd a'i bryn- iau a'i hafonydd a'i haberoedd yn goch gan waed ei harwyr; y mae'r ymdrech am fodolaeth yn mynd yn mbell yn ol i'r cyfnod cyn Cred; ac y mae'n para hyd heddyw, er nad ar yr un llinellau nac a'r un arfau. Dyna sy'n peri fod pob mod- fedd o'n gwlad mor anwyl i ni; pob llinell )'i hanes mor ddyddorol; a'r fath gysegredigrwydd yn amgylchu ein hiaith ac yn gydwauedig a'n harferion a'n sefydl- iadau. Y mae y teimlad a'r cariad hwn yn naturiol yn mynwes y Cymro; ond pan y gedy gartref y mae'n troi yn ymwyb- yddiaeth, yn fyw i'w amgylchoedd, ac yn cyneu yn goelcerth llosgadwy a gweladwy. Llin yn mygu ydyw gartref yn y trefi a'r rhanau gwledig, lie mae pobpeth yn Gym- reig a phob un yn ffurfio rhan o'u bywyd; wedi mynd i awyrgylch Seisnig tyr allan yn mam, a meddiennir pob Cymro a Chymraes gan ysbrydiaeth i wneud rhyw- beth i brofi bodolaeth eu cenedl. Pan ddenant i drefi fel Caerdydd ac Abertawe a Chasnewydd ao ardaloedd poblog y Rhondda, a gweled a theimlo'r elfen Seisnig mor gryf ac yn bygwth ysgubo pobpeth o'i blaen, ysir hwy gan sel dros eu cenedl. A pha ryfedd ? Y mae estroniaid unieithog yn ymwthio i safle- oedd ar ein Byrddau Cykoeddus, iaith y rhai yw Saesneg, a churir i lawr y neb a feiddia—ie, a -f eiddia-gynyg siarad Cym- raeg ynddynt; arferion Seisnig sydJ mewn bri ac y maent yn ddigon hyfion i darfu heddwch y Sabbath Cvmreig; troir achosion Cymreig yn rhai Seisnig ac, hyd yn nod, ambell adosbarth yn ein hen I Ysgol Sul-ein hunig amadiffynfa i gadw iaith ein tadau yn ddilwgr. N:1, dydi o ryfedd yn y bvd fod Cymry ieuainc I meddylgar yn cael eu cynhyrfu i waelod- ion eu bodolaeth wrth weled pethau fel hyn, ae, yn neillduol. pan yn canfod cymaint o_ Gymry gweinia-id wedi llithro i'r un cyfeiriad ac y mae'n arwydd dda I-yn argoel galonog am ddyfodol ein Icenedl-fod yr ymwybyddiaeth cenedl- aethol mor fyw yn yr oes sy'n codi. o: SUT I'W DROI ER DAIONI? Y mae hwn yn allu anorchfygol; Duw I sydd wedi gwneud cenedloedd, a does yr un galiu ar wyneb y ddaear all ddinystrio cenedl, bydded mor fechan a distadl ag y byddo; ond y cwestiwn ydyw, pa fodd i droi y cariad, neu y brwdfrydedd, neu y teimlad—galwer ef y peth a fy-Liir- angerddol hwn sy'n rhoddi boll natur- iaeth y Cymro yn ffiam-pa fodd i'w droi er y daioni mwyaf ac uchaf i'n cenedl? Wel, nid wrth geisio dynwared y Saeson, a sefydlu Cymdeithas i siarad a chanu ac areitnio yn Saesneg a dadleu ar gwest- iynau cecrus gwleidyddiaeth, ac i gael "socials" a "trips" yn ol arfer ein cymyd- cgion, a dim ond ei henw yn unig yn Gymraeg. Nid felly yr ydys wedi byw a llwyddo a dod yn enwog, ac nid felly chwaith y daliwn ein tir yn y dyfodol ac yr ychwanegwn gryfder. Beth ydi hanes Cvmru yn y gorphencl; beth yw y dirgel- wch ei bod heddyw yn genedl, yn meddu iaith fyw a llenydcliaeth gyfoethog a sefydliadau nodwoddiadol hollol o honi ei hunan, tra y mae cvnifer o genedloedd o'n hamgyleh wedi eu llyncu 1 tyny bron yn gvfangwbl gan y genedl gryfaf sy'n llyw-1 odraethu yr Ynysoedd Prydeinig? Hyn yn umg-fe gadwodd Cymru ei hiaith jn gyfwng digonol ac effeithiol i lenwi ei hangen yn grefyddol, llenyddol, a chym- deithasoi fel y daeth y Gymraeg yn ganol- bwynt ei bywyd. o: CYFLEUSDRA "CYMRU FYDD." Ac y mae'r adeg bresenol yn gyfle ardderchog i'r Cymry ieuainc hyny ['y'n awyddus i wneud rhywbeth dros eu gwlad —'Cymru Fydd," fel y gaIwallt eu hunain —i ddod allan o blaid yr hen iaith. Er's llawn haner can mlynedd, os nid rhagor, ychydig o sylw a delir i'r Gymraeg yn ein Uysgolion dyddiol: ac os na ddelfroir yn fuan fe deimlir 'oddiwrth yr effeithiau andwyol, nid yn unig i'n hiaith ond i grefydd a moesoldeb yn gyffredinol. Ar ryw olwg. y mae Cymru, yn neillduol y trefi mawrion, cyn waothed allan yn y cyfeiriad hwn ag ydoedd fwy na dau gan' mlynedd yn ol yn ainser yr Hybarch Griffith Jones o Landclowror. Fel hyn yr ysgrifenai Charles o'r Bala at Christopher Andorson yn 1811, a bron nas gellid meddwl ei fod yn desgrifio cyflwr y Cymry mewn ami i dref boblog: — Mwy na 150 o flynyddoedd yn ol, yn Nghymru, yr oedd yr holl wlad yn y cyflwr mwyaf adfydus gyda golwg ar gyrhaedd addysg grefyddol. Am amscr maith yn flaen- orol yr oedd pobl "ffasiynol" wedi bod yn ceisio mathru yr iaith allan o'r wlad, a dysgu y plant yn Saesneg. Yn erbyn y bobl hyn, ac yn erbyn y cyfiwr hwn o anwybodaeth cyffredinol, cyfodwyd y Parch. Griffith Jones o Landdowror. Gofynai efe—"A ddylai ein Uyfrau Cymraeg-, a'n cyfieithiad rhagorol o'r Beibl, ein pregothu Cymraeg, a'r addoli cyson ar Dduw yn ein hiaith, gael eu cymeryd ymaith, er mwyn ein dwyn i beidio defnyddio oin hiaith?" Felly y maent i fesur, mewn rhai lleoedd. fel y mae fwyaf trneni; ac eto, nid ydyw y bobl yn well ysgolheigion mwy nag y maent yn well Cristionogrion o'r her- '.vydd. Ni^fMarl'u i'r ysgolion eiusenol Seisnig y rholdwyd prawf arnynt gynyrchu unrhyw effeithiau- gwell yn y rhanau gwledig. Nid oedd yr oil a allai y plant wneud mewn tri, pedwar, neu bum gauaf yn cyrhnedd yn y oyffredin i fwy na dysgu. darllen yn anmher- ffaith ranau hawdd o'r Beibl yn Saesneg, heb fod yn ei ddeall yn Gymraeg; ac er bod gyhyd o amser mewn ysgolion Seisnig, nid oeddynt wedi cael un adeiladaeth iddynt eu hunain trwy ddarllen hyd nes y dysgodd Ilawer o honynt yn ddiwtddarach ddarllen eu hiaith eu hunain yn yr ysgolion elusenol Cymreig. Sicr wyf nad ydyw yr ysgolion elusenol Cym- reig mevm un modd yn rhwystr i ddysgu ddysgu Saesneg; ond, yn hytrach, y maent yn rhan. fawr tuag at wneud hyny. Dysgu ein hiaith ein hunain yn nghyntaf yw y uorcid rvvycldaf i enill gwybodaeth o iaith -n arall, outdo, paham na hydr'ai ienenctyd Llocgr yr arfaethir gwneud ysgolheigion o honynt yn cael eu gosod i ddysgu Lladin a Groeg cyn dysgu Saesneg iddynt. Dysgir ni yn awr yn ddiamheuol. gan hrofiad, os hyth y ceisir dwyn pawb o bobl Cymru i ddeall Saesneg, nas gallwn balmantu y ffordd i hyny yn well na thrwy eu dyegu i ddarllen eu hiaith eu hunain yn gyntaf. Ond rhywbeth yn debyg yw safle y Gym- raeg mewn llawer tref yn Nghymru heddyw, ie, hyd yn nod, mewn ami i ddosbarth yn ein Hysgolion Sabbathol— dysgu Saesneg i'r plant gan anwybyddu eu hiaith eu hunain. A hyn a waredodd Gymru rhag bod heddyw yn un o'r gwled- ydd mwya.f anwybodus yn y Deyrnas Gyfunol ydoedd y cynllun a fabwy.sia-d- wyd yn nechreu y ddeunawfed: ganrif. Fel hyn yr ysgrifena Mr. Christopher Anderson yn ei "Historical Sketches of the Native Irish" — Yn Nghymru, yn 1730, gwnai'r athrawon yn achlysurol ddefnydd o'r iaith Gymraeg i egluro geiriau Saesneg; ond gwelodd y Parch. Griffith Jones annigonolrwydd y dull hwn, a mynodd i'r plant gael eu dysgu yn eu hiaith eu hunain i ddechreu. Trwy ei ymdrechion egniol, fe'i galluogwyd i sefydlu ysgolion ar gylch trwy ran helaeth o'r Dywysogaeth. Llaeswyd y symndiad wedi el farw yn 1761, ond ail godwyd ef gan y Parch. Thomas Charlea o'r Bala; a thrwy gyfrwng yr iaith Gymraeg achubwyd pobl Cymru rhag mynd mor anllythyrenog ag yw gwerinos arfordir Donegal (yn yr Iwerddon) yn y dyddiau hyn. Yn y modd hwn y cafodd clerigwr tlawd, cup. chan mlynedd yn ol, mewn rhanbarth fynyddig o Gymrll, y bobl wedi snddo mewn anwybodaeth. Cyfanaoddodd lyfrau, dysgybl- odd athrawon, sefydlodd yegolion; ac yn ystod ei fywyd gwelodd yr ysgolion wedi cod' i'r fath aafle o dan ei ofal, fel, heb y cym- I horth lleiaf gan y Llywodraeth, y mae iaith y Dywysogaeth, nid yn uni" wedi bvw a blodeuo, ond wedi ci gwneud yn offeryn priodol i addysgu y bobl; tra y mae genym ni (yn yr Iwerddon) Fwrdd Addyag Cenedl- aethol, yn derbyn rhoddion blynyddol o gan. noedd o filoedd o bunnau; a chyda hyn oil, mewn haner canrif, nis gallent gael cymaint a llyfr wedi ei gyfanaoddi, nac athraw ei ddysgyblu i ddysgTi y cannoedd o filoedd o blant yn y rhanan o'r Iwerddon y siaredir y Wyddelaeg ynddynt, y rhai eydd wedi tyfu i fyny mewn anwybodaeth mor drylwyr ag yr oedd plant Cymrn ynddo pan y dechreuodd apostol Llanddowror ar ei lafur cariad. Ie, dyna sydd wedi gwneud y gwahaniaeth rhwng Cymru a'r rhanau mwyaf tlodaidd ac anwybodus o'r Iwerddon—y mae wedi cadw ei hiaith a hyny trwy ei chysegroedd a'i Hysgolion Sabbathol. Iaith Cymru, wedi ei hysbrydoli yn ngwirioneddau an- farwol Cristionogaeth, nid yn unig a c' achubodd y genedl rhag cael ei llwyr ddileu, bob ofion o honi, ond dyna a'i coded d i fod yn wrthrych edmygedd a chanmoliaeth pob cenedl wareiddiedig. -0: YR AMGYLCHIADAU A'R ANGEN YR UN. Ond er bod can mlynedd rhyngddynt, y mae'r amgylchiadau rhywbeth yn debyg vn awr ag oeddynt yn nyddiau Charles o'r Bala, a dynion o r un feddwl ao yn cyrchu at yr un nod raid gaet i arbed Cymru rhag yr un peryglon. Bron nad ellid meddwl mai am yr oes hon yr ysgrifena yr hen batriarch o'r Bala:- Ar y cyntaf. yr oedd y rhagfarn cryf a ffynai yn gyffredinol yn erbyn dysgu plant i ddarllen Cymraeg yn gyntaf, a'r syniad a gy- merwyd yn ganiataol nad allent ddysgu ddysgu Saesneg cystal os wedi eu haddysgu yn flaenorol yn yr iaith Gymraeg, yn graig rwystr ar fFordd y rhieni i anfon eu plant i'r ysgolion Cymreig; yn nghyda thyb ffol arall oedd wedi eu meddiannu, sef, oa gallent ddar- llen Saesneg y gallent yn fnan, o honynt eu hunain, ddysgu darllen Cymraeg. Ond erbyn hyn, ymwrthodir yn gyffredinol a'r rhag- farnau ofer a dieail hyn. Gyda golwg ar y priodoldeb o ddysgu plant ieuainc, yn y lie cyntaf i ddysgu darllen yr iaith a leferir yn gyffredin ac a ddeallir oreu ganddynt, nid oes angen am ei bron: y mae'n eglur ynddo ei hun." Er pan ysgrifenwyd y geiriau uchod, y ma,9 cenhedlaeth arall wedi codi, a chydag ychydig eithriadau, yr un yw ei chredo a'r un oedd yn byw yn nechreu y ganrif am le y Gymraeg yn addysgiant ei phlant. Y mae cynydd wedi cymeryd Ile y mae Cymru wedi rhoddi camrau breision yn mlaen; ond y mae'r hen ffol-dybiau uchod mor gyffredin heddyw ag un amser yn ei hanes. Ychwaneg, y mac llu o'n harwein- wyr mewn addysg, a'r rhan fwyaf o'r Byrddau Ysgol a bron yr oil o'r ysgol- feistri, yn credu nad yw y Gymraeg yn werth dim i'w dysgu; gwastraff amser yw ymboeni gyda hi; ac nad all fod o un cym- horth i'r plant ddysgu Saesneg ac leith- oedd eraill. Gwir fod ambell i Fwrdd goleuedig, fel Bwrdd Ysgol Caerdydd, yn mynd i weithredu ar gynllun Griffith Jones a Charles; ond y mae y mwyafrif 0 awdurdodau addvsgol ein gwlad, nid yn unig yn hollol ddifraw, ond yn gosod eu gwyneb yn erbyn hyn. A'r angen mawr yn awr ydyw cael rhyw ddylanwad i orfodi v rhai hyn i wneud eu dyledswydd at blant Cymru; y mae eisieu arwyr fel yr hen gymwynaswyr o Landdowror a'r Bala i gymeryd y cwestiwn i fyny ac argyhoeddi y wlad unwaith yn rhagor o'r pwysigrwydd o addysgu y plant yn eu hiaith eu hunain a bod dyfodol eu hiliogaeth a'u gwlad yn ymddibynu yn hollol ar hyny. A dyma le ardderchog i bob] ieuainc—yn feibion a merched—oymdeithasau "Cymru Fydd" weithio, nid yn Tmig wrth fyw yn Gymry eu hunain, a siarad Cymraeg yn mhob cylch Cymreig o dan bob amgylchiad, a dysgu Cymraeg i'w plant, ond trwy ddwyn pob dylanwad dichonadwy i argyhoeddi y rhieni a'r rhai sy'n gofalu am addysg y wlad i roddi ohwareu teg i'n hiaith trwy ei dysgu i'r plant, a byddai eu henwau yn perarogli hanes ein gwlad. -:0:- EANGDEil Y MAES. Nid ors prinder pynciau o'r pwysig- rwydd mwyaf i'n hieuenctyd i'w trafod; bydd hyny yn bleser ac adeiladaeth iddynt hwy eu hunain ac yn fendith i Gymru; ao nid ar y Cymry hyny sydd wedi symud i'r trefi mawrion a'r ardal- oedd gweithfaol yn unig y mae'r ddyled- swydd o ymaflyd ynddynt yn disgyn, ond hefyd ar Gymry y trefi Oymreig a'r ardal- oedd anghysbell. Wrth gychwyn, bwr- iadwn gymeryd y maes yn gyflawn, ond cyn gorphen bron un gornel o hono, y mae y llith wedi mynd yn faith; rhaid i mi adael hanes Cymru a'i llenyddiaeth a'i chanu a'i harferion a'i sefydliadau a'i chrefydd hyd yr wythnos nesaf; a chredaf y byddai'n fendith gc-nedlaethol pe byddai'n Cymdeithasau Llenyddol yn ystod y gauaf yn cymeryd y pynciau dan sylw, gan eu trafod a'u dwyn o flaen y cyhoedd. -:0:- ENGHRAIFFT 0 W ASTRAFF CENEDLAETHOL. Ond goddefer i mi gyfeirio at fywyd adfydus a helbulon a thrallodion ein cenedl yn Mhatagonia fel enghraifft o gamgymeriad dynion nad ellid amheu eu cenedlgarwch yn sefydlu gwladychfa Gymreig yno, gan berswadio eu cydwlaa- wyr i ymfudo i'r lie. Cyhuddid rhai o honom a ddygwyddai amheu cymhwysder y wlad i'r Cymry drigiannu ynddi fel creaduriaid anwla-dgar a llwfr; end erbyn heddyw, cyduna pawb i waeddi uwchben y Wladfa Gymreig—"Y fath golled ar nerth a llafur a brwdfrydedd a chysur a bywyd ac arian y genedl." Gwyddvs am y trychineb a ocldiweddodd y Wladfa ddwy flynedd yn ol gan y liifeir- iant, ac y mae anffawd arall, yn ol y newyddion cliweddaraf, wedi dal yr ym- sefydlwyr hyn, druain o honynt. Gor- lifodd yr afon Gamwy dros ei glanau, a gcrfu i'r bobl ffoi i'r mynyddoedd. Yr ooddrhai ffermydd dan ddwfr, ac ym- ddangosai yr holl le fel mor dan ddanfon- wyd y frysneges. Yn Gsiman fe wnaed ymgais neillduol i ddiogelu y tai, ond yr oedd yr afon yn uwch nsg yr oedd ddwy flynedd yn ol, a gorlifodd y drydedd ran o'r yffryn. Dywedir na syrthiodd ond tri 0 dai yn y bymydogaeth, ond i bob dyben y mae cnydau y flwyddyn wedi eu dyfetha. Y mae y trefedlgaethwyr wedi cynal cyf- arfod, ac wedi penderfynu gofyn i Lyw- odraeth yr Argentine roddi tir iddynt ar y naiU ochr i'r bryn, lie y gallent ddianc ar adeg o berygl. Gofynasant hefyd i'r Llywodracth roddi cymhorth i'r rhai oedd mewn angen, a gwneud i fyny y golled a gafodd y bobl yn ogystal a'u hamddiffy-i rhan; gorlifiadau yn y dyfodol, Y mae'r tcnadau yn yr arglawdd yn cael eu Ilenwi, ond y mae llawer o'r gwladfawyv, yn gwybod bellach fod y wlad yn an^hyfaddas 1 fyw ynddo zc nad oes rhyw lawer i'w ddysgwyl oddiwrth lywodraeth y Werin- ia^th, wedi penderfynu symud oddiyno i Cana,da gynted ag y gallont, lie y der- bynir hwy yn llawen gan yr awdurdodau a'r trigolion. -:0:- CYHOEDDIADAU'R MIS. "Y Cerddor."—Rhoddir y llo amlycaf yn v "Cerddor" i ysgrif alluog gan Mr. D. Jenkins, Mus. Bac., ar Eisteddfod Merthyr. Dywed wirioneddau pwysig, mewn iaith blaen, wrth gordclorion Cymru, a gobeithio y cvmerant hwy at eu hystyriaeth ddifrifol. Dyma ddywed am y canu corawl: — Am ddatganiad y corau eleni, credwn eu bod i fyny a'r goreu ydym wedi gael. Drwg genym mewn un ystyr fod y Saeson wedi cipio y hrif wobr eleni oto, a hyny o dan wahanol feirniaid, oddigerth un. 3ais oedd arweinydd y cor buddugol yn yr ail gystadleuaeth, a Saeson gan mwyaf oedd aelodau y cor. Sais eto oedd arweinydd cor buddugol y merched, ac yr oedd datganiad y buddugwyr yn yr ail a'r drydedd gystadlen- aeth cystal a dim gawsom yn y brif gystad- leuaeth. Ehyfedd iawn, cor Seisnig aeth a'r brif wobr yn Eisteddfodau Corwen a Bwlch- gwyn yr un wythnos, a'r oil o dan wahano] feirniaid. Cwestiwn ag y dylid ei ofyn gyda phwys!ais yw. both sy'n cyfrif am hyn? Cydnabydda pob heirniad ddaw atom fod lleisiau y Cymry yn fyfartal os nad weJl nag eiddo unrhyw genedl, ac yn mhelJach. cydnabyddant fod calonau llawn gwres o dan y lleisiau hyny; eto, dyma'r defnyddiau ar- dderchog hyn yn gorfod cymeryd ail a dderchog hyn yn gorfod cymeryd ail a thrydydd le yn ein prif gyetadleuaethau. Cymer hyn le weithiau am fod y coran Cym- reig yn mynd allan o diwn. Pa bryd y clywyd cor Seisnig yn mynd allan o diwn? Er ein bod wedi clywed ami un o honynt yn canu'n ddigon cyffredin. eto, nid oes cof genym eu bod allan o diwn, oddigerth yn Ngwyl Bir- mingham. Mae holl sel cann y Cymry wedi ei osod ar sylfaen anghywir, sef cystadleuaeth; feliy y mae yr holl adeilad yn sigledig a phwdr, fel nad oes modd sicrhau ilwyddiant cyson. Yr ydym yn dweyd hyn er mwyn dangos yr anhawsderau sydd gan ein harweinyddion i'w cyfarod, yn wahanol i ar- weinyddion Lloegr. Pe cawsai rhai o'r ar- weinyddion yn Merthyr eleni gor pyson dan eu gofal, buasai y canlyniad yn wahanol. Yn ychwancgol at hyn, defnyddid y "tremolo" sydd mor andwyol i'r lleisiau, ond1 a ystyrir gan rai fel perffeithrwydd teimlad, ond mewn gwirionedd y ffug mwyaf a'r "fraud" penaf ellid fabwysiadu i arddangos teimlad. Mae gwirionedd y ffug mwyat a'r "fraud" penaf ellid fabwysiadu i arddangos teimlad. Mae rhai o'r rhanau poblog yn ddwfn yn y cam-

The WASTING DISEASES OF MEN AND WOMEN ARE CURED BY jK Slaters What with wasting of flesh and strength my body and limbs grew terribly thin. Since taking Dr. Slater's Tablets I have put on flesh rapidly, and I feel better and stronger than I have done for a long time." The above is an extract from the attested statement of Mr. W. J.

MR. HANBURY AND SCOTCH AGRICULTURISTS. Mr. Hanbury, President of the Eoard of Agriculture, received two deputa- tions on Wednesday in Edinburgh. The Royal Scottish Agricultural Societies directed his attention to the need of aomething being done to provide practical teaching in forestry. Mr. Hanbury said forests and technical education were beyond his con. trol. but he sympathised with the views put forward, and would support a suggestion that a committee be appointed, that the whole of the information on the subject might be focusned. Mr. Eanbury also received a deputation con- sisting of representatives from Glasgow, Aber- deen, Dundee, and other burghs, and various Scottish county authorities urging that the restrictions on the importation of Canadian cattle to this country should be removed. Mr. Hanbury said the Government adhered to the policy of the past. So far as he was concerned his mind was very clearly made up. So long as he was Minister of Agriculture he could not yield to this demand. Speaking again later in the day, Mr. Han- bury said be did not think the grants made by the State to agricultural education were anything like what they should be. He had ixprcssed that opinion in the House of Com mons and on the platform, and would repeat it ad nauseam. When he thought of the enormous grants by the Board of Education for technical education, which nearly all went to town populations, and which was of no use, and when he remembered that- of every £ UQQ spent by the Board of Education in England only Xi went to the rural population, then he considered it time that they should have a change of system. As colleges where technical education in agricultue would be given sprang up in England and Scotland more and more appeals would be made to the Exchequer to assist those institutions, and the money ought to be found.

[SELECTED FROM THE "EVENING EXPRESS."} It is time for the local historian to com- pile a list of lapsed and superseded names of hostelries in Cardiff. One of the land- marks of the town will be lost to recogni- tion by the change of the name of the Black Lion to that of the Sandringham Hotel and Restaurant. There is a singular want of local patriotism in this ambitious town of ours. In London the old names of hostelries are preserved as precious heri- tages, which have gathered around them associations that are full of interest. The Black Lion would prove a source of infinite gossip to a convivial penman or an experienced raconteur. Cardiff contains many public-houses that have been similarly re-named, and an equally large number of houses that are licensed no more. When I was engaged in the building trade it frequently hap- pened that my workmates and I were called upon to deal with strangely-formed houses, which, we were informed, were once ale- houses, but were closed at the passing of Bruce's Act (about 1868), when houses under a certain assessment were dis- qualified for licences. For instance, a house that is occupied to this day at the corner of South and West Church-street was once known as the "Blacksmiths' Arms." When the owners of these houses desired to retain the licences, a sufficient addition to the premises was ordered to raise the assessments to the qualifying value. This was the time when the modest Blank Arms or Inn became the pretentious Something Hotel. In Cardiff the Carpenters' Arms, in the Hayes, became the Oxford Hotel; the Tennis Court, near St. John's Church, became Nells' Hotel; the Green Dragon, St. John's-square, became known as Fulton and Dunlop's, and the Queen's Head, Queen-street, became known as- what? Well, Carey's, to be sure! Not long ago The Shakspeare cast off its more primitive name and the Cardiff Cottage made room for The King. The Seven Stars have ceased to shine in Bridge-street; the Six Bells have become silent for ever in Charlotte-street, and the Lakes of Erin have become dry, very dry, in Mary Ann- street. This is about the full extent of my knowledge of Cardiff's oldef hostelries, but I invite readers to add their informa- tion to mine, and thus help the future his- torians of Cardiff's ale and public houses. At Saturday's meeting of the Penybont Rural District Council it was reported that diphtheria was very prevalent within the area of the council's authority, no less than eight cases being at the vil- lage of Aberkenfig. The physical for- mation of this place makes it very difficult to compass proper sanitary arrangements. The least swelling of the Cynffig Brook or the Ogmore River, soddens the whole neighbourhood. Even in the main street the ground floor levels are lower than the or own of the roadway. In many places also houses are situated in such a manner as if they had been tumbled out of a dice-box, and when I passed through in August last I noticed a number of houses that had long remained untenanted through disrepair, being prepared for re- tenanting. I did not stay to examine these out-of-date dwellings very closely, but had I been a member of the Penybont Rural District Council it would have taken a good deal of argument to have convinced me that a certificate of fitness for dwelling purposes should have been granted in favour of these houses. The sanitary inspector also complained that, in spite of his repeated warnings, I there was a lot of visiting going on at infected houses. The duties of sanitary inspectors are onerous and responsible, and their office is one of the most neces- sary requirements of our civilisation. Too often a conscientious sanitary inspector gains the obloquy of those whose sanitary interests he endeavours to guard when he should be strenuously supported in isolating infectious diseases. He is the missionary of hygienic science, and, as such, his directions should be promptly acquiesced in, and his authority strengthened in every possible way. "Gair i gall"—yes, a word to the wise. The inhabitants of Aberkenfig have erred through inadvertence, I know, and it is to be hoped they will postpone their visit- ing until the stage of infection has passed away. The Millennium has not dawned at Mil- fcrd Haven, but its spirit has shown itself there, and all who wish to see goodness prosper are gladdened by the complete unity of the various Christian agencies of the town on Sunday last. Not only did the Nonconformists heartily further the tem- perance mission of the Church of England, but they suspended their own special mis- sion in order to make the Yicar of Milford Haven's meeting the success it deserved to be. it is an odd thing that an incident of this kind is marked cut for special com ment in a Christian community, and still more odd that common practice justifies this special comment; but in this direction lies the panacea of social ills, and when the leaders of Christian activity join their forces in this way an awakening of spiritual work will follow as a matter of course. Principal Salmon, of the Swansea Train- ing College, is making an earnest appeal to the public for assistance to remove the college to the suburbs. When the Central Welsh Board met at Swansea, I had an opportunity of viewing the building thoroughly, and I strongly endorse Mr. Salmon's opinion that "buildings which are an adaptation of private houses must be struggling, wasteful of space, and ill-suited for scholastic pur- poses, and that with the gyeat rise in the standard of educational efficiency many things which were considered onlv desirable thirty years ago are now considered indispensable. There is no room for expansion on the present site, and even if there were a change of locality is imperative. The situation is too low to be favourable to health, and the college stands in the midst of what has become a very squalid neighbour- hood." Mr. William Williams, ex-M.P., cf Maesygwornen, has generously offered n site, and if there is a liberal response from the public to Mr. Salmon's appeal the council hopes to soil the present building at a price that will materially reduce the cost cf the new. The existing college accommodates, after a fashion" (so says Mr. Salmon), seventy resident students, and none of the friends of the college will misunderstand or take it unkindly of me if I Ray that it is a high moral and physi- cal necessity to make every effort to remove the institution from its present habitation and surroundings. Apart from this, if the building stood in the most- pleasant situation that could be found in Swansea, with all our boasted interest in educational matter- something better than adding a dwellhig unto a dw. lling, and then ether dwellings ad infinitum, should he found. The college has trained over a thousand women for the teaching professions, and students are entitled to a thoroughly equipped modern educ I tional establishment. After all. there is much in a name, and the Dinas Powis scheme of public-house reform has gained a good deal more of favourable attention through its being called a Gothenburg plan than if it had been described a six per cent. philan- thropy. A large brewer with whom I dis- cussed this latest novelty in social reform told me that at a less than 6 per cent. offer he would promptly hand over every brick and barrel in his possession to any trust that would accept them. Six per cent. investments do not come in the way of the public very frequently in these latter years. The Barry magistrates are evidently anxious to wear their thinking caps for some time yet before becoming parties to a trial of a very much revised Gothenburg system at Dinas Powis,

ROUND THE CHURCHES. PASTORS IN PEN AND PENCIL. ROATH-ROAD WESLEYAN CHUKGH, CARDIFF. [FROM THE "EYENING EXPRESS."] It may bo said of Wesieyan Methodism in Cardiff that it is in one respect unique, in the strictest eense of that expansive word. Its establishment was aided by the very founder of English Methodism, John Wesley himself. Whitfield end Howell Harries had paid visits to the town long before his first visit, in October, 1739. Wesley's last service in the "Town of the Taff" took place in 1788, but in the interim he is recorded to have visited the town not less than fifty times. Schism and separatism entered the young Church in Cardiff—one had almost said, as a matter of course. It was early the besetting sin of the Christian Church, as it is of all new sects. whether of creed or credo It is now especially manifested in the Åmri-can Churc-hee:-type of abundant youth and vigour—Christian science and thn,t other "fond thing vainly imagined," Faith Healing, to wit, not exempted. But if schism is a danger, it id a danger preferable to that of indifferentism, for it arises from over-zeal and assured con-J ■viction that the division will benefit their canse-a cause or phase at least, of Christism if not of Christ-like Christianity. It is ques- tionable whether down in his heart St. Paul did not approve this straight-out vigour and spiritual advance at all costs, for his own example had been that of a revolutionary of the noble type. But the division in Cardiff Wesleyan Methodism could not have been surpassed for deep rooted con- viction in the Apostolic times of earnestness. even Tmto harshness. It was annulled, however, as most over-zealous schism is by the conciliatory efforts of John Wesley, and the first society, founded in 1742, was re-started with a spirit far from listless, whose effects are seen to-day in the Church's prosperity, and whose tendencies, like a line, go out far beyond human ken. Cnrdiff became the centre of a Wesleyan district, which included Eastern Glamorgan and the whole of Monmouth. Bilingual cervices by the celebrated John Hughes towards the close of the eighteenth century appear to have given a wonderful impulse to that branch of Dissent, a few years of work resulting in a membership of about 250. The first mis- sionary" from the local body was Stephen Games, whose native place was Builth. Brecon- shirc. He had formerly been a Calvinist, but seceded, and, after due acceptance, was appointed to the Welshpool circuit. And where did the first Welsh Wesleyana meet for worship? The authors (in collaboration) of "The History of Nonconformity in Cardiff" ask, and thus answer the question:—"On May 6, 1743, a place of worship was opened here by Mr. Wesley, and thi3 is, by current report, the first Wesleyan Chapel built in Wales. An old Wesleyan Chapel (now a place of business) in Church-street, which we pass on the right as we go from St. John's Church to St. Mary- street, was built in 1329, on the site of an earlier chapel, erected towards the close of the eighteenth century." There is somewhat, of distinctly Welsh daring in thus planting one of the first Churches of Dissent right by the central seat of Establishment. The spirit and nerve of opposition have now modified into a desire for as daring co-operation with that Establish- ment in the amelioration of social iniquity and rampant wrong in Cardiff, and more widely, "in this blessed spot, this realm, this England." A Welsh home minister was appointed in 1805—John Hughes, a uni-Jingual Welshman— and four years later the circuit was divided, Cardiff remaining the centre of the English section. In 1811 growing differences again imperatively called for a sub-division into Cardiff Welsh and Cardiff English groups. The latter claimed among its local preachers Mr. T. Revel Guest, an ancestor of the iron-manu- facturing firm. Koath-road Church has in reality grown out of the Ens-lish section, and is now the centre of one of the most important of circuits. A chapel in Castle-road had preceded the present building, which was erected in 1970. One of the first preachers thereat was the Rev. Hugh Price Hughes, then a student. The secretaries to that fine effort to build one of the expensive churches in the West of in the Roath district were the late Mr. B- Moxey and Mr. Lewis Williams, now chairm*1!1 of tho Cardiff School Board. Their indefi1'-1' gable work culminated in the payment of £ 12,000 which the church cost. The chnrc™ was opened on May 24, 1871. The first miiiiste" was the late Rev. David C. Ingram- It. ø claimed for the Sunday School that it jl among the finest in the kingdom, with membership, inclusive of the Cyfarthfa-atres" Mission, of over a thousand. Mr. David SheP' herd, well known for his secretarial work 011 the Cardiff Free Church Council, has the superintendency of this branch of the work- The Rev. Edward Smith, tow of Scarborough completed hia three years' ministry at Roai.d road as superintendent of the Eoath-r°'a circuit in August last.
