FOOTBALL. CARDIFF V. CLIFTON. Theile old rivals met on the ground of the latter club on Saturday. The weather was fine, but the ground was in a highly greasy condition consequent upon the violent gale of the preceding day. At 4.2b, Douglas set the ball rolling, aud U wai immediately returned into tonch near the half-way flag. Adams gained a few yards by punting once more into touch on the leather being thrown out. In a scrimmage following the line out, Duncan and Herbert Jones came tbrouh and invaded the Clifton 25. ;Ja.rtnan here secured possession and chucked to Douglas, who dodged in very cleverly and scored a 'try—one minute from the start. Hughes essayed the tiLice, which was an awkward one. but failed to secure he major point. Youn responded to the drop out, Standing the ball in tonch near the Clifton 25, and some smart passing was shown by the Cardiff backs atter the line out, O. J. ETan., Douglas, Adam., and Young each in turn becoming custodian. The last named kicked across the line, exacting a touch in defence from the home back. Clifton ground continued to bold the contestants after the drop out. O. J. EvanR, AdAms, and Douglas here again showed lSom smart passing, and Morgan, taking a pass from the capi.n, got away to within the 25. A loose kick sent the ball well ont, but Adams was on the alert, and sent it flying back. Morgan then made another attempt to trav61, and this time was not pulled up until within a few yards of the oal line. A capital opening at this jllncturo presented itself to Young, but he failed to properly take a pass intended for him, and so lost his chance. Thereafter the Clifton back sent the leather out to the centre, where Hughes, seizing it, put in a magnificent kick and landed a goal. Following the kick off, the ball for a minute or two hung about the vicinity of the Cardiff 25. Bland equalised matters by dribbling out in the course of some loose play, and Kedzlie then carried the oall on to Clifton territory. Lutiuer here averted an ugly rush of the visitorll by kicking into touch. At the line out Baker tried to make off, but was tqnickly overthrown, and Young gained an additional slice of territory with a punt, Hyba-rtjustatterwurds got hold of the ball, and travelled to near the line, where, being tackled, he passed splendidly to Douglas, and tbe latter ran in and scored a try, which Hughes was not able to convert. Baker kicked out, and after Kedzlie had returned, a Ciifton three-quarter made an effort to get away, and absolutely lost ground in th., endeavour to "double" bis opponents. Tlùs bart the etfect of causing the Clifton position to become invested, and advantage was quickly taken by the Cardiffians of their chance. home clever passing enabled Adams to give Young a look in, and the latter promptly got across the line and behind the posts. The place kick was entrusted to Adams, and a goal resulted. From now on to the call of half time Cliftun continued to have all the worst of the game, but the otily additional poh t obtained by their opponents was a touch down. At the outset of the second half the home team pulled themselves together, and play for several minutes was at the Cardiff 25. Douglas, however, com- pletely altered the aspect of affairs by a brilliant run over two-thirds of the field, passing man after man until face to face with the back. He then transferred the ball to Herbert Jones, who, although promptly tackled, clnedy gave the ball to Jaxman, and the popular little "half* was soon in behind the uprights. Adams successfully negotiated the point. This fresh disaster appeared to completely knock the steam out of the bome men, who in the ensuing play were called upon to repel an invasion of their goal line. In this, for a time, they succeeded, but at length Kedzlie found an opening, and scored a try near the end of the line. Hughes did his best to convert this, and narrowly missed the mark. The Clifton forwards now rallied a little, and rushed the ball out ot their quarters, but Kedzlie and Emery intercepted them, and dribbled back to the 25. Sant was instrumental in gaining a little more ground, and the visiting for- wards domg pretty much what they liked in some scrimmes which ensued, worked the ball over the line, and Clifton had hastily to touch down. Shortly after the kick out Young got away from near the centre, and. hiving almost a clear course, ran in close to the posts. Hughes was unlucky with his place-kick, the ball grazing the upright Cliiton now worked the lRather to the Cs.rdiff end, but. Mahoney, dribbiillg to the centre, caused them to retire. A little later the same player again got the ball between his feet. and took it up to the Ciiftoa 25, where Kedzlie crossed the line, but was not allowed a try, it being ruled that he had stepped into touch in goal. From now 011 to the close hostilities were waged entirely in the quarters of the home team, who just prior to tbe call of no side had once more to touch in defence. Cardiff thus won by three goals and five tries to nil. The Cardiff team comprised the following :—H. Hughes, back W. M. Douglas, G. Young, F. S. H. Adams, aud W. H. Morgau, three- quarter backs; W. Jarmsn and O. J. Evans, half backs A. J. Hybart, Q. D. Kedzlie, J. Mahoney, J. A. Sant A. Emery, A. F. Bland, JU. W. Jones, and R. T. Duncan forwards. SWANSEA v. LAMPETER COLLEGE. This mated was played at Swansea, on Saturday, and resulted, after a spirited game, in a decisive victory for Swansea by one converted goal, four tries, and two touches down to ODe touch down, or, according to tbe new I'ystem of counting, 7 points to nil. At 2.35 Swansea kicked off against a very strong wind, which at times was accompanied with heavy showers of rain. The ball was kept on neutml ground for some time, when loose play was continued until the leather was kicked into the visitors' 25. J. Edwards punted near the central tl post, and the Lampeter forwards well followed up. The advance was checked by some very effective drib. bling on tne part of the home forwards, which took the leather several yards back, and then the game was of a give-and-take nature in the open. George Bowen obtained a good run, and tben Towers dribbled into the Lampeter quarters, where the home team played an aggressive glioma for some minute< Bishop picted up, and before being tackled passed to George Bowen, who made a gallant a.ttempt to run in, but lost the ball a few yards from the goal line. Bishop soon a.fterw1.rds nearly scored a try, and then J. Kdwarùs kicked into neutral ground and relieved the goal at a critical time. Thorogood tded to reply, but th" kick was charged down. The collegiaus were on the ball, and dribbled on several yards, and soon made Swansea act. on the defensive. J. Thomas ran out, and then Meredith and W. Bowen worked together, and carried the contest near central ground. A long drop landed the leather in the home 2b. Thorogood punted out iut.o touch. After the throw out. the collegians rushed the ball into the home quarters, where it remained for about four minu. the attempts of the Swansea men to relievo the pressure proving futile, and eventually the ball was sent uver, and a touchdown was registered for Lampeter. After the kick out Wolfe cme off with a run, which was followed up by some effective passing, and Swansea had again to act on tbe defensive, and then the ball was kicked over, but Thorogood declined to touch down, and in lieu he ran near the 25 flag, Meredith and George Bowen carried the game near the Lampeter quarters, where some loose play took place amongst the forwards of both sddes. Meredith gained much ground by a run, but passed back wildly, and lost several yards. One of the visitors took the pass, and, amid appHuse, Bishop punted into the collegians' 25. The Swansea men were up atonce, and pat the I Am peter goal in danger. Bishop got over and obtained a try, which w *s not converted. Half-time was now called. In the second half play commenced at once with a sprint D. Mor- gan kicked to the Lampeter fall back, who failed to handle the ball. and G. W. Bowen got possession, and ran on a few yards. A scrimmage was formed, and the ball, when heeled out, was taken over the goal- line, somewhat to tbe surprise of the Lampeter men, who apparently made no a.ttempt to tackle. After a somewhat lengthened dispute the try was allowed for Swansea, but the place-kick failed. After this lAmpeter exhibited some C8.!)ita.1 passing, which broke through the Swansea defence. George James tackled one of the visitors and thus stopped the advance, and then Swansea resorted to exactly the same tactics. K. S. Richards, George Bowen, Bishop, and Meredith passed and ran efficiently, and did not lose the ball until it WM 16ft a few yards from the Lampeter goal- line. C. Williams passed to J. Thomas, who kicked, and the visitors touched down. The Swansea men con- tinued to play an aggressive game for some minutes, and although the leather was sent into neutral ground occasionally, it was soon worked in again. W. H. Gwynn ran ower and secured a try, which D. Morgan failed to convert into the major point In three minutes' time W. H. Gwyun aftain got over, ud very unselfishly passed to George Bowen, who grouuded the ball down right behind the goal posts, from which a goal was kicked by D. Morgan. The home team showed some good passing. Meredith, however, pased witboat jud. ment and lost ground. I-ampeter played up pluckily, but it was evident they had little chance of scoring. Their territory was frequently invaded, although Wolfe tackled exceedingly well, and L. Jones and J. Edmunds played a very hard, defensive game, but did not have sufficient support from their confreres. E. J. Richards kicked the ball over the goal line. Towers, amidst loud applause, raced after it, being accom- panied by three Lampeter men. Towers, however. dodged, and got the try, which was not converted, although the angle was most favourable. Bishop took a pass, and secured a try behind the goal posts, but again the place kick failed. Time was soon called. Sides:—Swansea: Back, E. Thorogood three- quarter backs, George E.

On Saturday the Neathites journeyed to the town over the border to fulfil an engagement with the home team. The team was a tolerably good one, and Gould got together ene whicb would stand a lot of beating. Tbe weather was wretched in the extreme, a drizzling rain falling nearly throughout the game, which was almost a one-sided one. There was a very poor attendance, the weather keeping a great many away. Neath kicked off towards the pavilion end in tbe face of a rather strong wind. Webb sent the leather to the half-way. where it dropped into touch, and from the necessary scrimmage the howe forwards carried play to the Neath citadel. DoWDe threw ont to Webb, who at once commenced an attack on the line, and a splendid opportunity to score was lost through Webb dinging to the ball no tenaciously. Powell charged at the goal, and missed from a scrimmage, but he could easily have run in. A lot of interesting play fol- lowed, but the attempt of the home men to cross proved abortive. Neath having been compelled to touch down twice, Thomas ran the drop-out back to the 25, and Webb handling the ball wretchedly lost another efaance, and the visitors coming away rushed to lesa daageroos ground. The home forwards rapidly transferred the play to the 25 again, their dribbling being of the best oi-der, and the leather going over, Briggs scored. Gould made a grand effort, but the goal did not come off. The forwards still continaed a brilliant game, and Jones within three minutes was across. Gould this time sending the leather flying between the poets. Hard- ing, Thomas, and Peperall were amongst the next to show any form, and a fine bit of loose phy resulted in their scoring, Peperall falling on the leather exactly under the posi s. The captain essayed the place, and scoied the major point with ease. Half-time was then called, the game standing in favour of Newport by two goals and a try to nothing. Gould set the ball in motion, and a free kick, nicely caught by one of the three-quarters, gained a good deal of ground for the visitors. On the Neathites rushed the ball, and the Newport backs failing to get hold, the line was suc- cessfully crossed, but nothing came of tbe place. Newport now began to awaken up, and in no time, as it were, Thomas was across the line at the opposite end of the field, Gonld landing goal. The home men, still playing the dribbling game, confined the gamo to the visitors' territory. Powell got in a dhiIift run, and 00 being held on the line transferred to Stone, who placed the ball in the desired spot. Nothing came of Gould's attempt, and "time" waa soon after called, Newport thus winning by 3 goals. 3 tries (12 points) to 1 try (I point). Mr Simpson, Cardiff, was the referee. The foDowing played for their respective teams •.—Newport". W. Edwards (back); J. E. Webb, G. Thomas and R. W. Powell, three-quarter backs; C. Thomas and T. Downe, half baeka R. Qosld (captain), T.

CWMKKLIN. —The first ties in 'connection with the Guardian Challenge Cup took place on tbe S*radey Grounds, Llaoelly, on Saturday last, in the most wretched weather, rain falling inces- santly all through tbe game. Cwinfeltn won the toes, and the Juniors kicked off acainst a strong wind, tbe ball being well returned. The first scrimmage waa formed in the centre, which afterwards prosed to be a series of tbem, BO material advantage being gained on either side. Alter a severe straggle, autl a flying kick by Cwmfelin, th$Juniors wMe cum- polled to touch down. After the kick out, Cwmfelin, [ by a saurt bit of loom play, scored a try, which Joseph. •froo» a diiffcult angle, converted eplaadidly. Anthon^ kicked off, and from a loose dribble the Juniors got a touch down. Evans dropped ou1, and scrimmage after scrimmage being the order of pay, Cwmfehn snc. ceeded in getting another try, which Joseph failed to improve upon, when half-time was calleu. On the teams changing ends and tho ame bein restarted, the Juniors soon compelled tbe Cwmfelin team to touch down. After this the game was one series of scrimmages, untilnea 1'1y the call of time the Juniors crossed the line and got a try. Anthony took the place, but failed to convert the same to a major point. The match thus ended in a win for Cwmfelin by 1 goal, 1 try, anri ] minor to 1 try and 2 minors. Messrs J. L. Davies and F. N. Powell acted as umpires, and Mr W. Buckley Uoderick ats referee. OLD CASTLE ROVERS v. DAFEN.—At tbe conclusion of the above match, these two teams took to the field to playoff their tie in the same competition. The j Rovers won the toss. and Dafen kicked off against a. strong wind. During the first half the Rovers compelled their opponents to touch-clown no less thau seven times, being greatly aided by the wind. After half time the Dafen team improved on their form, and played a good open game. By some effective dribbling Dafen seemed a try, which l'homas failed to convert, Soon after they secured a touch-down, which enabled them to secure the required number of points for a win, and thus the match ended in their favour by a try and a touch-down to seven minors. Messrs F. N. Powell and W. T. Davies acted as umpires, Mr Roderick being the referee. LLANELLY V. CARMARTHEN. For the first time for many years the Llanelly team visited Carmarthen to play the latter town club a friendly game. For some reason or other a misunder- standing has existed between these two teams, but we are pleased to note that since Mr Arthur (late of Cardiff) has gone to Carmarthen, and with the assist- ance of Mr Holmes (the president of the club), the ■ cupholders consented to arrange a home and home fixture. The weather was very bad; but in spite of this a large crowd witnessed the game. At the outset, it was expected that the Carmarthenites, with the weeding of players and improved style of play Arthur had introduced, would win, but on the ball being set in motion, the better play of their opponents told, and, although no tangible point was scored, several of the minors were almost equIValent to a try, the home am only saving just in the nick of time. Arthur and Lewis lor the home team were very busy, but their efforts were well watched by Bowen and Howells. Evans from the field of play nearly dropped a goal, the point being given a poster. On change of ends the visiting forwards played a splendid game, their rushes and loose play being particular noticeable. For fully 20 minutes of the latter half the home team were penned on their goal line. :eve1 onslaughts were made 011 thair goal line, but tbe home team defended grandly, and succeeded in keeping their opponents well in hiõnd. Thomas got a mark and Bowen tried for goal, tne ball being blown witie. The forwards rushed over the line, but only a minor resulted. After a very fast and loose game. being contested in the best of spirits, it ended in a draw in favour of Llanelly by six minors. The teams were composed as follows CarmarthM: Back, W. M. Powell; three-quarter bac,s, C. S. Arthur (captain), George Lewis, G. Grogan, and D. Jenkins; half-backs, D. Hutchins and J. S. Thomas forwards. J. Lloyd, D. Smith, D, Davies. W. Jones, J.

THE WRECK OF THE OCEAN BEAUTY. A PILOT DROWNED. REMARKABLE ESCAPE OF THE GREW. Full details have come to hand of the wreck of the barqae Ocean Beauty, of Swansea. Early on Friday morning the ttig Challenger observed that the barque, which during the week had been tak- ing shelter under the Mumbles, was in a perilous position, and she offered to tow her to a place of safety, but from some unaccountable cause, no definite reply was received, and the tug left her. Shortly after, the barque began to drag her anchors. The Challenger went to the rescue, and did her best to take the vessel out of danger, but she became so unmanage- able that all efforts to do so were of no avail. The vessel drifted across the bay till the sand banks between Aberavon and Briton Ferry brought her to. All the time great seas washed over her, and as from the shore it was impossible to ascertain her exact position, the gravest apprehensions were felt. Mr Richardson, one of the owners, went to the Mumbles, and succeeded in inducing: the crew of the lifeboat to go out and see if it were not possible to render assistance. The boat was out nearly four hours, but so terrific was the sea that nothing could be done. Towards night the storm had increased in fury, and as nothing bad been beard of the crew, Mr Richardson got the Digby Grand tugboat, which was lying under the Mumbles, to undertake the duty of towing off the lifeboat. When Coxswain Jenkins, however, began to collect his crew he found that about half of them refused to go. The response to an appeal for volunteers was somewhat tardy, and a delay of a quarter of an hour took place before the boat was fully manned. She was rowed out to the tug, which proceeded with her in tow towards where the barque was supposed to be. About 10.15 the men reached the Mumbles in safety, after encountering the roughest seas any of the crews can remember. The barque was not sighted and had she been, the rendering of assistance was quite out of the question. It subsequently transpired that the barque, after getting on the sands, was not left dry at low water, and the men were afraid to trust themselves to the waves. By the incoming tide all the deck-houses were washed away the rudder was unshipped, and the cabin and storeroom flooded. The barque soon commenced to break up, and the deck being swept by each succeeding wave, the crew had to climb into the rigging. They had difficulty in getting the pilot, an old master mariner, named Daniel Wilson, to follow their example, and as they were persuading him to leave his dangerous position on the poop, a heavy sea from the windward swept over the deck, and carried Wilson with it. He was seen no more, but at noon the following day his dead body was found near Port Talbot. The remainder of the crew clung to the rigging for six hours, being washed by every sea that broke. Although the shore was not far off, they could not see it, but those ashore lit blue lights to show the men that their position was known. Towards midnight the tide had receded, and the crew were again able to get on deck. Then one of the men got an empty oil-can, corked it tightly, fastened it to a line, and let it drift. By almost a miracle this little buoy not only reached the shore, but was picked up and made fast, and then the crew one by one, by means of the line, got into shallow water and walked ashore. They reached Port Talbot about one o'clock on Saturday morn- ing. Mr Jenkins, th local agent ot the Ship- wrecked Mariners' Society, took charge of the men, and subsequently forwarded them to their homes. The Ocean Beauty is a total wreck. Her cargo, which consists of coal and coke, is being washed out of her, and a tug is engaged at low water in saving what ift possible. The loss of this vessel will be a heavy one for Messrs Richardson Bros. She wae not insured, and she bad only jnat been so thoroughly overhauled that Lloyd's repassed her for 12 yearf.

THE NEW CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH AT NEATH. The new Congregational Church at Neath was opened for service on Sunday, when the Rev. E. Herber Evans, chairman of the Congregational Union of Wales, preached in the morning and evening, and the Rev. J. Pandy Williams in the afternoon, to overflowing congregations. The new church, which has been built at a cost of £ 3,000 by Messrs Thomas and Cox, from a design by Mr D. M. Davies, measures inside 57 feet long by 37 feet wide, exclusive of the transepts (which are 16 by lOb feet) and a vestibule. It will bold about 700 people.

THZ REVIVAL IN THE IRON TRADE. WOLVERHAMPTON, Saturday.-Evidences are increas- ing in South Staffordshire which point to the improve- ment which has recently set in In the iron trade being of a genuine character. Tbe black sheet makers and the galvanisers alike are experiencing a considerable increase in inquiries. London and Liverpool merchants intimate that they are in possession of good Colonial and South American orders for galvanised iron, if only they can place them on reasonable terms. Black sheet mills, which up to no'v have been only very poorly off for trade, are getting full of work, and makers are strong at the advanced quotations of 5s to 10s per ton. This advance makes sheets of 24g. B6 5s to S6 10s, and Zl/t. £7 to JE7 10s. The galvanisers decline to accept further business except at the 10s advance de. clared at the quarterly meetings, which brings the price for 24g. f.o.b. Liverpool to about £ 10 5s per ton. The advance of 5s per ton in spelter is to the gal- vanisers an important factor. The exports of galvanised iron from all parts last month to Australia totalled 3,800 tons, to the Argentine Republic 2,000 tons, and to various other countries 4,333 tons, making a total for the month of over 10,000 tons'. Consumers of best bar iron state that althongh the marked bar houses have iletormined for the present to redeclare the previous standard of B7, with 27 12,9 tKt as the Earl of Dudley's quotation, yet it is not impro- bable, it the revival continues, that next month may see a declared advance of 109 per ton. It has on several occasions previously happened that the marked iron firms have chosen to declare alterations in their official lists a few weeks after the quarterly meetings have gone over instead of at the actual meetings. November is noted amongst consumers as a favourite month with the masters to advance prices. Common bar masters quote 2s 6d to 3s per ton rise, and decline orders at former minimum rates. Thus common bars have become %:4 158 per ton. The pig iron market is very strong. Local makes have advanced 6d to Is per ton, and in some cases Is 6d per ton advance is quoted. Derbyshire pig makers are refusing orders at the advanced price of 36s per ton fn this district. The Earl of Dudley's official coal list has been withdrawn.

LORD DUNRAV¥N ON POLITICAL AFFAIRS. On Saturday afternoon Lord Dunraven (Under Secretary for the Colonies) addressed a well- attended meeting in the Town-hall, Bridgend, on political affairs. Colonel Warlow, of Laloston House, presided. Lord Dunraven, having spoke at some length in advocacy of Imperial Federa- tion, referred to Ireland, and said he was strongly of opinion that Parliament would have to deal soon with the land question, and consider the transfer of the soil from the present landlords to the occupiers. With regard to differential railway rates, he said they placed the agriculturist under a most unjust disability. He approved of local self-government; but warned his hearers against accepting any scheme of the late Premier for catting up the country into sections and destroying its power and unity. They would, doubtless, be subjected to a great temptation in this respect in the principality of Wales.—The Rev C. R. Knight moved a vote of thanks to his lordship {or nis address, which was carried. ?

THE TIN-PLATE TRADE. RE-STARTING OF MR W. WILLIAMS'S WORKS. (FROM OUR SWANSEA REPORTER.) SWANSEA, Saturday.—The exports of tin plates amount to 2,000 tons for Philadelphia and Balti- more, and parcels for France and Germany-in all 43,912 boxes 10,538 boxes have been received from works for storage and stocks to-day in ware houses and sidings—in all 118,367 boxes, com. l:d with 136,867 this day week — a de. crease of 18,500 boxes. The trade continues to improve all round. The fear now is that makers will rush up prices too quickly, and that thus business will be choked" off. In fact, this has been the case already, makers in many instances quoting prices that are quite out of the question, whilst others refuse to quote at all. These tactics have been so repeatedly tried before and have so signally failed that the wonder is they should be tried again. On Saturday the following notice was posted up at Mr W. Wil- liams's works at Morriston :— NOTICE. The market having slightly advanced, work will be resumed on Tuesday next, and the engagement will, nntu further notice, be from day to day. Prices are still lu «• and unremunerative, but we hope a further improvement will soon take place, so that we may be ab.e to keep you employed regularly as before the stoppage. W, WILLIAMS, Worcester and Upper Forest Works. This means the re-engagement of 1,400 men and children, who, if the works had been kept closed during the winter, would have had to face beggary and starvation. LIVERPOOL, Saturday. Though the Birmingham quarterly meeting wa< held this week, yet there baa been a great deal of business done here-and more, perhaps, prior to the meeting than afterwards. Great things were expected of the Birmingham quarterly meeting, but the result is not at all commensurate with the high expectations entertained for some time previously, that is, so far as it has beeu communicated to neople here, In bet, and judging it from a business point of view, i.e., by the orders booked, it was a very disappoiiitfeg meeting. The inquiries made here during the *arly part of the went were very numerous, and several orders were booked at 13s 3d, 13s <Ud, and in some cases 13s 6d IC for the ordinary kinds of coke tin plates, as well as Bessemer steel plates with coke finish, and it was rather expected that many more orders of a similar kind, and even at better prices, would be tixell up on quarter day, but such unfortunately was not the case, otherwise the tin-plate market would be firmer now than it is. There are at- readysigns of its giving way,as theburiness doneat the beginning of the week could not be repeated—at least, not at the same figures by any means—that is. the figures now offered are lower to the extent of 3d or so per box. It is not usually the case that mtrch business is done here during the week the quarterly meeting is held, but, as stated previously, considerable business of one kind and another was done here during the early part of the week. but not much now during its closing day. Most of the orders then booked were for Bessemer steel plates with coketinning and coke tin plates. Also some Siemens steel plates with coke tinning. The prices of the two former we have already given, and the price of the latter ranged from l3s 6d to l'h IC.in accordance with grade of brand. There were a few orders also booked for charcoal tinplates, without any change in prices, as given last time. There has been a dis- position to do a great deal more in ternes, and there were numerous inquiries, but there is no response to the advanced (and in some cases very advanced) quotations made by makers. It most be owned that some of the prices now asked are in great contrast with the prices quoted a month smce so very much higher have they been that they have stopped the business for the present. Tin-plate wasters, especially in ordinary sizes, have been in great request daring the whole time, and prices have been advanced steadily though slowly—3d to 12s 6d being the figures obtainable at present. Tin is steady at £ 10110s to ElOl 17s 6d. Scotch pig iron firm and advancing at 41s lid to 42s Id Middlesbro' 32s 6d aud Cumberland hematite pig iron warrants, 43s 7d.

THE LOSS OF THE ARCTIC, OF SWANSEA. BOARD OF TRADE INQUIRY. At the Swansea Town-hall on Saturday, Mr J. Coke Fowler (the stipendiary), assisted by two nautical assessors, held a Board of Trade inquiry into the circumstances attending the abandon- ment of the Arctic, the property of Messrs T. P. Richards and Co., of Swa Evidence was given stating that 4;be vessel left Tucacas on September Htb, laden with a cargo of copper ore, and bound for Swansea. She encountered heavy squalls, and her boats were crushed to pieces, and her bull bO seriously injured that the men went in a body to the captain and asked him to leave the vessel. A brig passed a day or two after. and the Arctic was abandoned. Nothing has been heard of since, and the question was whether she was unneces- sarily abandoned. Evidence having been heard, the decision was reserved till this (Monday) morning.

CAPTURE OF A SPANISH FORGER AT CARDIFF. On Friday evening last a clever capture was made at Cardiff of a Spanish forger. It appears that the man in question, who bears the name of Isidore Vitoria, bad been for some time M wa." on account of several cases of forgery and em- bezzlement in which be was mixed up. No traces of him, however, couJd be found till about the end of last week, when. it was ascertained that he bad embarked at Bilbao for England. It was dis- covered at thosalne time, although in what way it has not transpired, that the son of the runaway had gone a week previous, and bad taken up his resid- ence at Cardiff. Accordingly, Mr H. Young, the British consul at Bilbao, wired to that town to put the police on the watch, with the result that from a slight description added the man was arrested on Friday evening, at the Great Western Station, by Detectives Smith and Fowler, as he arrived by the 10.10 train from London. A search was made of his clothes and belongings, which resulted in tbe discovery of £ 300 in gold and a large number of Spanish and French I notes. He was locked up in the cells, and is waiting to be conducted back to Spain. The anthonties expect someone this (Monday) morn- ing to take charge of the prisoner.

SHOCKING TRAGEDY AT FULHAM. A MOTHER AND FOUR CHILDREN DROWNED. Great excitement was caused in Fulhim and Hammersmith on Saturday owing to a report that a woman had on Thursday evening thrown her four children into the Thames off Fiifham .meadows, and bad also drowned herself. Upon investigation the shocking intelligence was only too fully verified. The woman's name is Frances Leader, aged 35, wife of a butcher living in Denmark-road, Camberwell. On Thursday after- noon, in consequence, it is said, of a slight family quarrel, Mrs Leader left home with her five children, the youngest being a baby in arms and the eldest nine years of age. She took a steamboat, it is believed, to Chelsea, and pro- ceeded to the banks of the river, near Broyn- house-lane. Here she walked into the water with the baby, saying to the children, We have all to die." The children followed her, but one boy, aged seven years, who would not go in until forced by his elder brother, succeeded in scrambling out, and was the sole survivor, by whose means the dreadful news was made known that the mother and four children had perished. He wandered about wet and crying, and when be told his tale people naturally could not credit it. He was taken to the police-station, where he was well cared for, and when it became evident that there was some foundation for his story, en- deavours were made to discover some of the bodies. The address given proving correct, the father was communicated with, and arrived on Friday morning at the police .station, where he identified the surviving boy. The little fellow then repeated his account of the affair. The search for the bodies resulted in the discovery on Friday of that of Harry Leader, aged nine, but the second boy Frank, agad three, was not dis- covered till Saturday forenoon, near Putney Bridge. i>Char»re'B body was recovered on Sunday. Mrs Leader was a native of Bristol, and formed the acquaintance of her husband when she was barmaid at a fashionable hotel in Eaton-square. Of lata her married life had not been a parti- cularly happy one, and various causes are assigned for this. She was confined five months since, and although after this she became desponding, none of her friends suspected she would commit such a terrible dead. On Thursday morning the husband (went' to a neighbouring public-house to get a glass of ale, and on his return he found hit wife and the five children ready dressed to leave the house. A painful scene followed, the mother, father, and children weeping piteously. Thinking she would remain, the husband took the children into a bed- room, but they cried so for their mother that he let them go. According to bis story he begged her not to leave, but she persistently refused, and1- thinking that she desired to go to her mother's, he offered her JB4 for her fares. This she declined^ and immediately left the house with the children. The husband did not follow.

The heroine, Sabina, who name gives the title to the story, is the daughter of a rich M.P., who quits her fathers house and lives in lodgings so as to devote herself entirely to labour among the London poor. The novel, it will be seen, is a departure from the run of stories to which Mr Black has accustomed his readers.' The new story is the first tlrree-volnme novel which Mr Black has written expressly for newspaper publication, and a perusal of the manuscript of the first volume leaves no doubt that it will prove one of the most popnlar of Mr Black's stories. It was commenced in the Cardif Times and South Wales Weekly New on October 9th, and will run for 26 weeks. A synopsis of the chapters already pub. lished will appear this week, so as to enable new readers to take np the story. J^UDSON'S^MARKiNG INkT ,JUDSON'S MARKING INK. JUDSON'S MARKING INK.
