GLASGOW IRON TRADE. GLASGOW, Fri,iay.-Se far as the quotations are concerned, there cannot be sa.d to have b".ii any -improvement in the iron trade since last report, but tha feeling in the market is, on the whole, scarcely as depressed as it was a week ago. The prices of warrants have fluctuated from 41s 4d to 4 Is Id, recurring yester- day to 41s 3d, but closing easier this afternoon at 41s 2id, there being thus a decline on the week of lid per ton. Very little speculative business has been done. The values of makers' iron show little change. No. 3 is still in better demand relatively than No. 1, and for several brands there is a fair business, although much complaint is made of unremunerative rates. The shipments of Scotch pigs this week have been good, and the inquiry has been rather better from Canada and the United States, while Russia and Germany are presently taking large quantities of our iron. By an accident at which several men were fatally burned at the Clyde Ironworks this morning, one of the furnaces there has been thrown temporarily out of blast. A small quantity of pig-iron has Deen sent into Connal's stores, but a larger amount withdrawn, so that there is a reduction since this day week of 225 tons, the aggregate being 590,974. The mild steel trade is slackening, and it has been found necessary to put out a number of furnaces at one of the wu ks. There is no improvement in the malleable iron trade. At some ports there have been good ship- ments of coals, but the total quantity dispatched is 80,000 tons less than at this date last year.

THE BARROW COLLIERIES, BRYN- CETHiN. The Barrow Hematite and Collieries Company, who have acquired a large coal estate at Bryi.cethin and iyny waun, near Bridgend, have been for a long period engaged in sinking operations. They have laid out that property with a. view to an extensive trade, and for the purpose of supplying their works at Barrow- in l' tirne>s with coal, and have also laid out streets and louílt houses for the accominodation of the large number of workmen who will be employed when the works are developed. The Central Qlamoryan Gazette of Friday, in referring to the active preparations for starting the collieries, says :— We are glad to be able to announce that the Barrow Coll.eries Company, who own the pits at Bryncethin and Tynywauu, near Bridgeud, are about to develop the.r property by Colonel Beaumont's tun- ne.-drivisig machine, a contract having been entered into with nim f..r driving an inclined galiery, about 1,200 yards in length, at Bryncethin. J he object is to prove tHe seams in connection with the company's leases held from Lord Dunraven and others. It is anticipated that this distance will be completed in four months after the machine has commenced driving. The w..rk will no doubt atract considerable attention in che district, and it deserves to do so, as the machine must tiiia other employment in South al -s if by its uieaus coal properties can thus be easily D.o\ed. The machine works without t. e use of explo- sive*, and it is applicable to cross cuts, passing through the hard measures of the coal seams. We understand that Colonel Beaumont has recently concluded a con- tract with the Bridgwater Titist Company for driving a gallery m their Bridgwater pits near Manchester. Tie tunnel, 1,500 yards in length, will pass through alter- nate be> is oi rock and shale. The machine to be em- piujed at Bryncethin is the,ame a" that which re- cently completed the tunnel heading on the French si e of the channel,"these works having been tem- porarily stopped on account of the scare which is felt in some quarters as to the Cliannel Tunnel being a source of danger t,) this country.

WRECKS AND CASUALITIES. [SPECIAL TELEGRAMS FROM LLOYD'S AGENTS.] The steamer Richmond Hill, 2770 tons, lying in Blackwall Point Dock, has been carried bdiiy forward owing to a caisson bursting in. Her rudder and stem- poit are embedded in the caisson, and her bow is about i5 feet into the head of the dock. The vessel is lying very evenly on the bottom, with a list of eight or nine degrees to port, resting on her port bilge and side shores. She does not seem to have strained as all deck seams, cement, and waterways appear perfect. The water is level inside and out at high water. The caisson is being cleared away, but the vessel will have to remain in the same position until the caisson is suffi- ciently repaired to allow the tide to flow in and out freely. The British ship Andrea, from Liverpool for Sydney, is at Rio Janeiro leaking bdly, and with bulwarks and stanchions damaged. She will discharge her cargo for repairs. The Spanish steamer Carmen, from Almeria for Mar- seilles, has been towed into Tarragona with her cargo on tire. The British ship City of Ottawa is reported to have arrived at Newcastle, N.S. W" damaged. The British ship Caranyali, from Huano, has put into Valparaiso leaky. The schooner Plough Boy, of Shoreham, from Rochester for Leith, with cement, was towed into Yar- mouth Harbour on Friday afternoon leaky.

UNIQUE PRESENTATION TO MR GLADSTONE. Mr Gladstone has just been presented, at his official residence in Downing-street, by Major Isaac, representing the Mersey Railway Com- pany, with two candlesticks, formed out of two of the outters from Colonel Beaumont's boring machine which successfully cut away the last por- tion of rock that divided Liverpool from Birken- head in the Mersey Tunnel; at the same time Mrs Gladstone was presented with a cutter from the same source formed into an inkstand. The cutters have a covering of silver, on which the following inscription appears :—" Cutter, from the bori machine, presented to the Right Hon. W. Eo Gladstone, M.P., by Major S. I aac, as a memento of his visit to the works of the tunnel under the River Mersey, Thursday, October 11, 1883." Major Isaac expressed the hope that by the end of the year trains would be running from Liver- pool to Birkenhead, and that the Premier would occupy a place in the first train that went through. Mr Gladstone, in accepting the present, said he always felt deeply and sincerely interested in the tunnel under the Mersey, and hoped to have the pleasure of going in the first train that passes through.

A CABLE TRAMWAY. A tramway enterprise new to this country was started on Thursday in London. This was the cable tramway constructed on Highgate-hill, one of the highest districts in North London. This is described as the first example of a cable tram- way in Great Britain, and, indeed, in Europe. The. system has been worked successfully for a number of years in San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and other American cities, and also in New Zealand, where the cable as a means of haulage has been preferred before any other method. The rails are laid on the narrow gauge, but otherwise the line is constructed like an ordinary tramway. The feature of the system is the endless wire cable, which is placed in a tube in the centre of the road-bed, and to which the cars may be attached at pleasure. The cable is worked by steam power. The cars are provided with powerful brakes, and can be stopped in a couple of yards distance. There were four heavily-laden cars on the track on Thursday, and all of them travelled up and down the steep gra- dient with remarkable smoothness. The gradient is oue quite impossible for horses.

EXCITING SCENE AT A LEVEL OROSSING. An exciting scene was witnessed near Becken- ham on Thursday afternoon. On a level crossing between the latter place and Croydon some boys were crossing into a field, when one of them got his boot fixed in one of the points, and could not ex- tricate it. The quarter to four train had just left Beckenham Junction, and the other lads, seeing the peril of their companion, shouted and screamed, but were unable to give any help. Their cries attracted the attention of a publican named Davis, who was driving past at the time. Seeing the danger of the boy he ran to the spot, and the boy's boot being a laced one, Mr Davis seems to have had the presence of mind to rip it up with a knife, and thus release the lad's foot, who by this time had fainted and fallen on the line. He instantly dragged him on one side, but in doing so he was caught by the buffer of the engine, which now rushed by, and received a severe contusion on the head, but otherwise miraculously escaped serious injury.

CAPTURE OF THE "PRINCE OF COINERS." At the Edmonton petty-sessions on Thursday, William Mason, 36, said to be known as the prince of coiners," and who has been sentenced to ten years' penal servitude for manufacturing base coin, was charged on remand with feloniously having in his possession materials for coining, together with spurious coin. William Colley, 19, was charged with being concerned with two men in knowingly uttering a counterfeit florin; and Edward Llewellyn, 35. who has been sentenced to seven years' penal servitude, was charged with having spurious money in his possession. Mr Pollard prosecuted on behalf of the Mint authorities. In the course of the evidence it was stated that an inspector went to the lodgings of Llewellyn, at Tottenham, and found two packets of counterfeit half-crowns and a packet of spurious florins. At Mason's house were found some pieces of white metal, three double moulds for the manu- facture of half-crowns, and other apparatus for coining, and when he was apprehended base coin [ was pGaoession. 'lne prirs were w re F fitted for trial.

ARE BOARD SCHOOLS RATEABLE ? An appeal of considerable interest to School Boards and managers of public elementary schools was heard on Thursday, in the Court of Appeal. The West Bromwich School Board were the appellants, and the point raised was whether the board were rateable to the relief of the poor in respect of their schools. The contention of the board was that they had no occupation of the schools or premises connected with them, nor bad they any beneficial occupation, nor could any tenant under the same restrictions have any bene- ficial occupation of any of the schools and pre- mises. The court held, however, that the board had a beneficial occupation of the schools, because in the one case a tenant could be found for the property, and in the other the board had powers of leasing the schools. The appeal was therefore di^rii'scd, with costs.

THE LATE DEAN OF BANGOR, TO THE EDITOR. 4 SlE,—Would you, through the medium of your paper, allow me, on behalf of the family of the late Dean of Bangor, to thank all those who have written letters of such kind sympathy, and also those who in such thousands, irrespective of sect or creed, attended the funeral yesterday of one who had devoted his life to Wtles.-I am, &c.s E. W. EDWARDS, Vicar of Ruabon, Ruabon Vicarage, May 29,1884.

SWANSEA SCHOOL BOARD AND CANON RICHARDS. TO THE EDITOR. SIB Your comments on the motion made by me at the yesterday's meeting of the Swansea School Board convey such a misconception of the nature and grounds of my motion that I can only account for by the exteinely meagre report which was furnished, you. You say that I applied that the children attending a certain school" should have their ferry expenses paid to St. Joseph's Church on Sundays, the obvious inference being that these children were living with their parents, and attending some ordinary elementary school. My application was in behalf of children detained by magisterial order in the truant school. These children are taken out of the hands of tiiL-ir parents, and during the period of their detention the school board stands to them in loco p'arentis, and amongst other responsibilities towards them has that of arranging for their at- tendance on Sundays at a Roman Catholic plac3 of worship. If any necessary expense has to be incurred in sending them,' it is upon the authorities who hold them in durance to provide the same and not the pastor of the churclj they may happen to attend. My authority for this application is that of a letter from the Home Sec- retary, Sir Vertfon Harcourt, to the clerk of the Sheffield School Board, dated 14th January, 1884, where amongst the arrangements which he thinks it incumbent on the school board a to adopt, in respect of Roman Catholic children in the Sheffield Board School, and which need not "entail excessivecost,"occursthelollowing: "Provi- sion shou' be made for the attendance of the Roman children at a Roman Catholic place of worship every Sunday under due regulation." Your argument seems entirely based on the conception that I was applying for ordinary scholars residing with their parents, upon whom obviously rests the obligation of attending to their. Sunday's worship. I am loath from your past generous and fair reports of my speeches to think that you would purposely misrepresent me. But in justice I ask that you will insert this letter, which I write to correct an obvious misconception*—I am, &c., J. W. CANON RICHARDS. St. Joseph's, Swansea, May 29th, 1884.

PRAYING FOR THE DEAD. TO THE EDITOR. SIR, -I have always been under the impression that praying for the dead is a peculiar doctrine of the Roman Catholic Oliurch, and the 22nd of the 39 Articles of the Church of England pro- hibits such a practice but seeing such promi- nent clergymen as the Revs. D. loyd, head master of Christ College, Brecon, and G. A. Jones, Vicar of St. Mary's, Cardiff,-in your issues of Tuesday and Wednesday, recommending .prayers for the departed soul of the late Dean of Bangor, I must have misunderstood the doctrine of the Church of England, or these gentlemen imist be traitors in tho camp of that church. Which is the case ?-I am, &c., PROTESTANT.

FINE ART EXHIBITION. TO THE EDITOR. SIB,—I am glad to learn by to-day's issue of your paper that you are willing to receive sub- scriptions towards the deficit in the funds of tho 'I' be fine art exhibition, and beg to enclose my mite.—I am, &c., J, MILES, Canton, May 29th, 1884.

Epsom DOWNS, Friday. Contrary to the evidences of the morning, there was after all a very full attendance for the Oaks day, and the weather was everything that could be desired. All the leading and diverting features of Derby day forced themselves prominently upon public attention. From the paddock, well on to the bend at Tottenham corner, the betting men carried on a roaring business in more senses than one. Picnic parties were numerous in drags and carriages that lined the course, while out in the open snow-white cloths, well covered with the good things of life, looked very tempting in the brilliant sun- shine. The sporting prophets, many of them apparently persons who had received a good education, did a better business than might have been expected. There was no end to the variety of amusement and refreshments provided, from water at so much per bucket to champagne at all prices per bottle. A local brewery sent two dray loads of beer, which was served by men in coarse aprons and scarlet caps, at the usual price of sixpence per pot. Nearly every enterprising business and newspaper adver- tised itself inside and outside every booth, and Madame Tussaud announced in glaring characters that Gen. Gordon and Lord Randolph Churchill have just been added to her waxwork exhibition. The sale of yearlings in the paddock was but indifferently attended, and very little business was done. The animals offered were nevertheless a very promising lot. Lord Rosebery's grounds, the Durdans, were thrown open to those who had obtained tickets of admission, and for those who could spare the time a walk through the charm- ingly wooded park was a pleasant contrast to strolling over the parched ana dusty downs. The errand stand, just before the commencement of the principal event, was black with people. The course when cleared, which was effected at half-past two o'clock, was found to be in a very hard condition, but the atmosphere was remarkably clear, and a good view of the race for the Oaks was obtainable from nearly every point. The stait was not effected without considerable difficulty, and when at last the nine competitors got away, the race proved very exciting. The pace was good, and it was no surprise to the majority of persons that Mr Abington's Busybody, with T. Cannon as jockey, took first placa. Fred Archer was a good second on Superba, Webb being third on Queen Adelaide. On returning to the weighing place, Cannon was loudly cheered. During the day the general topic of conversation was the alleged objection to St. Gatien, one of the dead heaters for the Derby stakes, on the ground that his pedigree had been improperly described. The rumour turned out correct, for during the afternoon Sir John Willoughby lodged an objection to St. Gatien on the ground that he had been insuffi- ciently described, and the case will be heard on the Tuesday in the Ascot week. Contrary to expectation, a very fair field came out for the Epsom Two-year-old Plate, and of the ten coloured on the card Harold and Lucy Ashton were conspicuous by their absence. Stmiefall settled down favourite at 2 to 1, and of the others Radieuse and Aromatic came in for most notice, while 12 to 1 was procurable about the winner, Catacomb. One hour intervening between the decision of the Epsom Plate and the time ap- pointed for the Oaks, which was, of course, the piece de resistance of the day, ample time was allowed for those who wished to pay a visit to the paddock to inspect the fillies before they paraded for the actual race Busy- body was the centre of attraction, and looked cool and collected, and was followed round the pad- dock by Periosteum. Whitelock, on the other hand, appeared excited, which affliction increased before they proceeded to the post. Legacy looked clean and well, and the same remark ap- plies to Kinfauns and Pinta, the latter of whom, wearing bandages on her fore legs, looked rather out of place in such company. Pibroch accompanied Superba, who looked fit to run for a man's life, and excited general admira- tion, and Wild Shot, who gave credit to her trainer, will probably see a better day, while Quilt showed considerable improvement from a two to a three-year-old. Queen Adelaide's toilet was put to rights in the Langley bottom, not far distant from the starting post, and she cantered the reverse way to the others. The race was run at a fair pace, Kinfauns being being the first to show in advance, but was soon after pulled back, and Legacy and Pinta showed the way from Wild Shot, Kinfauns, Quilt, and Busybody, until half- way down the hill, when the pace told its tale on Pinta, who quickly became tailed of, and Iiegacy showed the way into the straight. She was in trouble soon after, and when fairly in the line for home the race was reduced to the three placed. Busybody, however, stalling off in turn the challenge of both Queen Adelaide and Superba, the favourite won rather cleverly by half-a-Iength. Lucy Ashton, refusing her engagement in the Epsom Two-years-old Plate, was brought out for the Acorn Stakes, and with Archer for her pilot, was made a very even money chance, but having the misfortune to break her fetlock. Vacillation secured the race from Grecian Bride. An ob- jection to the winner on the grounds of a cross was subsequently over ruled. MacAlpine, on whom odds were laid at the opening of the betting, gradually roeeded on the quotations, as the money invested on Snack landed her a 7 to 4 chance, while 6 to 4 was laid against Mr Peck's horse at the fall of the flag. Simon was indulged in a walk over for the Epsom Cup, and the odds laid on Applause the Second for the Selling Welter, were easily landed and Lulli-ngton, against whom 5 to 1 was procurable for the Walton stakes, soon got back the money Mr Burton gave for him yester- day, and the business was wound up. The feature of the betting on the Manchester Cup was the support awarded Borneo, who advanced to 100 to 14, and the backing of Patriarch, at 1,000 to 40, after 3,000 to 90 laid, while Sir Hugh was in fair request at 1,000 to 30, at which price he was supported to win 25,000 or 26,000.

Immediately the flag was hoisted Whitelock became very fractious, and, refusing to join her horses, there were several breaks away before the flag fell to a fairly good start. Queen Adelaide and Superba were the first to break the line, but they were immediately pulled back, and Legacy settled down in front of Pinta, Kinfauns, and Quilt; then came Wild Shot, White- lock, and Queen Adelaide, with Busybouy and Superba bringing up the rear. There was little alteration In the above order as they streamed past Sherwoods Cot- tage, shortly after which the favourite began to rm prove her position. On passing the mile post Legacy was followed by Pinta, the pair being clear of Wild Shot, Quilt, Kinfauns, and Busybody, while Superba and Queen Adela de now went on a couple of lengths in the rear of the favourite. Before reacning the six- furlong post Pinta and Whitelock lost their places, and Legacy came down the hill in front, attended by Wild Shot, Quilt, Busybody, Kiufauns, Superba, and Queen Adelaide, and in this order they rounded Tattenham Corner. When fairly in the line for home Legacy re- tired, and Wild Shot for _a few strides was left in front, but before reaching the road, a quarter of a mile from home, Busybody took up the running, and she was followed by Queen Adelaide, Wild Shot, and Superba to the bell. Here Wild Shot was beaten, and Busy- body, stalling ott in turn a resolute challenge from both Queen Adelaide and Superba, won by half a length from Mr Peck's mare, who came with a. wet sail from the half-distance Q^ra Adelaide was a bad third, Wild Shot being fourth, Quilt fiith, Kinfauns sixth, Whitelock next, and Pin*ta last.

CRICKET. AUSTRALIANS v. GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND. The Australian eleven accomplished a remarkably good performance against the Gentlemen of England, at Lords, on Friday. When play was resumed in the morning the Australians, who had lost five wickets overnight for 83, went on with their inningj, which was finished off for 135, or 142 behind. This, of course, necessitated a follow on, and so badly old they com- mence again that there seemed eveiy probabiiity at one time of a single innings defeat. McDonnell and Bannerman were soon got rid of. Murdoch, who beg;tn badly,andgiffen, however, added 34for the third wicket, and the former and Midwinter raised the total to 75. Up to this point the batting had been of a very moderate character, but Midwmter and Scott showed much better form. The former played on at 135, and then Scott and Blackham saved the innings amidst cheers. It was, however, after Blackham was out that the best cricket of the day was shown. Scott and Palmer played with the greatest pluck, and completely altered the aspect of the game before they parted. They put on 96 runs by a splendid performance. Scott's not out innings was in every respect a g, and batting display, and "including seven 4's and fivo 3'6. There is now a chance that the Australians may win, as the Engli-hmen want 111 with nine wickets io fall. GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND. 1st innings. 2nd innings. W. G.

THE LATE DEAlT EDWARDS. RUABON, Friday.—In a letter of condolence in connection with the death of the late Dean of Bangor, just received by the vicar of Ruabon, Mr Osborne Morgan, M.P., writes I cannot re- train from sending you a few lines of sympathy on this terrible, tragical event, which every Welshman is at this moment so deeply deploring. Iliad always entertained the highest esteem and admiration for your brother. He was certainly one of the most eminent—perhaps the most emi- nent—Welshman of his day, absolutely unrivalled in the power of moving the hearts as well as in flaming the convictions of his audience, and his loss will be not only 11 universally mourned, but never really repaired." Mr Richard Davies, M.P., writes Though a Nonconformist differing with the dean, I found him ever a most kind friend and neighbour, a welcome and interesting guest. I do mourn his loss, and so will every Nonconformist through Wales." The Secretary of the Church of England Tem perance Society writes:—" His work was been widely-known and highly prized, and it is not too much to say that in the advocacy of the claims of our society it will be difficult, if not impossible, to supply his place as a platform speaker."

TO THE EDITOR. Sift,-A great deal of stress has been placed on some supposed secret compact made at a meeting of some Liberals at Abermaed on the 28th ultimo. Allow me to say that I volunteered my visit there for the purpose of urging upon Mr Pugh the desirability of his attending the proposed meeting of the Liberal Association at Cardigan, and giving an explanation of his Parliamentary conduct. I was the more anxious that he should do so as Mr Asa Evans had, with much courtesy, at my appeal postponed bringing forward his motion in order to enable Mr Pugh to attend. The future representation of the county was not the subject of discussion at Abermaed.—I am, &c., W. O. BRIGSTOCKE. Park-y-Gors, Boncath, R.S.O., May 28, 1884.

TO THE EDITOR. SlE,—Mr Pugh seems to be unfortunate in his apologists, and I think it my duty to animadvert upon the tenor and spirit of the two letters which appear in to-day's issue of your paper. The writers or writer seek not only to palliate but justify Mr Pugh's Parliamentary career, and his recent contribution to the public press. Indeed, in tenor and phraseology they so favour one anothor (and alike they run in couples) that one is justified in concluding they are the twin offspring of the self-same author. Alike they are incapable of rising superior to personal spite, and fairly meet and discuss the charges of inconsistency and neglect of duty in Mr Inch's conduct in his renresprr^ly^ ch«r»»G- ter; an3 to attain their ends" at any price they seek to villify those who have been instrumental in inviting an expression of the sentiments of the constituency. The two productions do not seem to be in accord as to the capacity of the con- stituency to deal with advanced questions of prin- ciple. The one, inspired evidently by the old sentiments ef Whigism pervading a portion of the party, and unconscious of the advancing spirit of the age, still dreams of rallying the Liberal forces by a name or tradition. The other writer, on the contrary, maunders incoherently about bigotry and intolerance, and a higher and nobler basis of Liberalism, without explaining what his views are, and what actions he takes exception to. They still hark back to the now stereotyped but exploded im- peachment of the composition and proceedings of our association, and one even modestly suggests that we should sue in Mr Pugh's presence for an amelioration of our grievances. We are curious to know why was not Mr Pugh present at our meeting and if exception be taken to the presence of four residents of the borough outside the county (all-long consistent and active members) what of the proposed discussion of the borough representation by the county delegates ? But your correspondent goes further, and repeats the insinuation of concealed motives for our action, and that in the face of a challenge to Mr Pugh to make good his words, and a categorical denial of it by the gentleman referred to. I leave it to your readers to judge such conduct. Your correspondent seems incapable of comprehending the fact that Nonconformity is a political and not a religious distinction, and characterises the con- duct of one association, while being consistent, under the euphonious titles of bigotry" and intolerance." Is it any wonder that a preference should be given to candidates who have carried into practice their principles of dissent from State Establishments by severing themselves from a Church whose religious tenets and practices are limited and declared by the legislature, to men who, while avowing like principles, have not the courage of their convictions ? Two most important measures involving clear, essential and almost elementary principles of civil and religious liberty and equality were debated in the House during the present Parliament, viz., the Affirmation Bill and the Ilbert Bill. The division on the former Mr Pugh did not think it worth his while to attend, and as to the latter, he has used all his energies to perpetuate the iniquitous domination of one nationality on another equally wise, moral, and intellectual. This is bigotry and intolerance with a vengeance, and far from the broad and noble principles your correspondent rants about. But we have not yet learned Mr Pugh's senti- ments on the question of the day. Disestablish- ment, and especially disendowment, Why has he witheld them so long ? All we know is that some of his stoutest supporters entertain but hazy, if indeed orthodox, notions on the subject. But your correspondent stoops to a lower depth yet, and to, attain his end he scruples not to charge my father, Mr Asa J. Evans, who seems to be the principal butt of Mr Pugh and his apologists, with being corrupted by £ s d, and then he conceals his identity under the non de plume of Fair Play (save the mark 1) Let him disclose his identity and with a clear conscience I leave it to the public to judge who can best stand the test for consistency and disinterestedness. I may be excused for repeating what ] has already appeared—that Mr Asa Evans was an active and consistent Liberal when Mr Pugh and most of those now taking leading parts were not yet in their cradles and eyen I can recall the time when Mr Pugh's Liberalism was not so pronounced but that public rumour credited him with being the candidate elect of our opponents in the county. The reference to MrE. M. Richards our late able and respected member, is most unhappy. It is generally admitted that his political creed and career Were in perfect harmony with the senti- ments and wishes of the great majority # of the constituents, and yet, notwithstanding his great' popularity, he failed to be returned in 1874. Let us now avoid the like fatal mistake of con- fiding the manipulation of our forces to a self- constituted few, but rely on the f-pontaneous and concerted co-operation of the masses. If he had taken pains to be en rapport with them he would not have found it the broken reed it proved to be. Under present circumstances I but echo the convictions of reliable public men when I say that it were easier to stem the flow ofour river Tivy than to turn the current of Mr Pugh's un- popularity and return him agaid There is now but one who can hope to secure the united sup- port and suffrageà f the Cardiganshire Liberals, and that is one whose religious and political beliefs are those of the people, the honourable member for the borough.—I am, &c., IVOR EVANS. Cardigan, 29th May, 1884.

THE DYNAMITE SCARE. Eugene Turpin, civil ^engineer, of Paris, sur- rendered at Bow-street on Friday on the charge of being in the'unauthorised possession of an ex- plosive. Mr i-olandt from the Treasury, read correspondence showing that the defendant's agent had sought the permission of the Home dffice to bring the explosive to England for ex- periments at Glasgow, and defendant, :notwith- standing the warning, endeavoured to evade tho act by illegally passing it through the Custom House. The counsel merely applied for a penalty and forfeiture of the material. The defendant pleaded guilty, and said he had acted in igno* ranee. Sir James Ingram imposed a penalty of 25:and costs, and ordered the forfeiture of the explosive which was broucht to London.

THE TINNED SALMON POISONING CASES. It will be remembered that the inquest last Monday upon the bodies of Mrs Sarah Dewen (51), Piper's Row, and her son Frederick W. Dewen (20), of Whitmore Renns, whose deaths occurred from supposed poisoning through eating tinned salmon, was adjourned until next month to permit of a post mortem examination of the bodies, and an analytical examination of the con- tents of the stomachs. The post mortem exami- nations have now been made by Dr Pope and Mr R. W. Collis (Bunch and Cbllis), who were the surgeons who attended the deceased, and portions of the stomachs, of the livers, and of the kidneys have been passed on to Mr E. W. T. Jones, of Wolverhampton, county and borough analytical chemist. From certain appearances which he discovered Mr Jones thought it advisable to communicate with Dr. Ballard, of London, inspector and medical officer to the Local Government Board. On Thursday a letter was received in reply from Dr. Ballard, requesting that portions of the viscera, including part of the lungs, should be forwarded to him and to Dr. Klein, speoialist of the Brown Institution, London, for microscopical examina- tion. To furnish the lung it would have been necessary to conduct another post-mortem exam- ination. In the temporary absence from town of the coroner (Mr W. H. Phillips) it was not deemed by the surgeons advisable to take this course, and the funerals of the deceased took place to-day. Por- tions however of the viscera) wh ich are now preserved in spirits by Mr Jones for his examination, will be forwarded to Drs. Ballard and Klein, and Mr Jones will act in unison with these authorities in experimenting with the small portion of salmon which was preserved in the tin. The more the case is investigated the more important the enquiry becomes. Indeed, it seems likely to take rank among medical men with the late Walbeck poisoning case, since it is probable that the Wol- verhampton d'eaths will turn out to be due to the cause in the Walbeck affair, viz., animal poison- ing. The necessity of the investigation becomes the greater from the circumstance that other serious cases of illness have recently been under the care of the Wolverhampton surgeons which have been traceable to the eating of tinned sal- mon, and which well-nigh proved fatal.

FRIGHTFUL EXPLOSION IN AN IRONWORKS. THREE MEN KILLED. Three deaths have resulted from an accident which occurred at the Clyde Ironworks, near Glasgow, on Friday morning. The men were preparing to run off the metal to cast the pig iron at No. 1 furnace when, from some unex- plained cause, an explosion took place, and the molten iron, slag, and cinders were showered upon them. Tlieir fellow-workmen extricated them from the red-hot metal, and they were con- veyed to Glasgow Royal Infirmary. Three of them, named Cosgrove, Wilson, and Dunlop, succumbed to their injuries in the 'afternoon, and the fourth, named Callaghan, is not expected to recover.
