PROPOSED MEMORIAL TO FATHER…
PROPOSED MEMORIAL TO FATHER DAMIEN. A few days ago the Prince of Wales pre- sided at Marlborough House over the first meeting of the committee for promoting a memorial toLthe late Father Damien. In opening the proceedings, the Prince proposed that there should be a memorial scheme, em- bracing a monument onj the spot at Molokai where Father Damien's remains are interred tlie establishment of a leper ward in London, to be called the Father Damien Ward, togethpr with the endowment of a travelling student- ship to encourage the study of leprosy; and a full and complete inquiry into the question of leprosy in India. Mr E. Clifford, the Duke of Westminster, Sir James Paget, Mr J. Hutchinson, Sir W. G. Hunter, Cardinal Alaniiing, and the Rev. Hugh Chapman hay- ing spoken, resolutions adopting the schcme were passed, and an executive committee ap- pointed. The Dally News of June 18th has the follow- ing remarks:—The whole civilised world has followed the story of Father Damien's noble fcelf-sacrifice with admiration and reverence. No argument can be adduced against the extreme importance of giving careful study to this terrible disease, especially in India and among our colonies. India is one of the chief homes of leprosy. There are in our Indian Empire about 250,000 victims of that loath- some scourge, or about one thousandth part of the whole population. Here it is exceedingly rare, but it exists, while in the colonies it is also infrequent, but it is said to be spreading. The only part of the Committee's project over which any discussion can possibly arise is the necessity for the establishment of the proposed leper ward in one of the hospitals of the 11 11_- __1 metropolis. It has been generally supposeu that the disease no longer exists in these islands. That is unhappily a mistake. There are some unfortunate people living and mov- ing among us, who carry about with them this hideous, incurable, and possibly commun- icable disease. The Prince of Wales men- tioned one startling instance. At this very moment," said he, there is a leper, with his hands distinctly affected by the disease, en- gaged at his business in one of the large London meat markets." This would be alarm* iog enough if it were certain that the contagion could be spread in such a way. The old notion of the infectious nature of leprosy is dis- credited, but the death of Father Damien is to some extent evidence on the other side. The very doubt upon such an important ques- tion—for we must remember the great fre- 0 quency of leprosy in the East—is the best proof possible of the urgency of full scientific Z5 investigation. London is the first school of Medicine in the world, and yet this awful scourge cannot be properly studied by London medical men. But collect together a number of cases and place them where their affliction can be thoroughly investigated, and there will at last be some possibility and hope of the discovery of alleviating treatment, if not at length of an actual cure. The Lancet notes further It is gratify- ing that the self-sacriticing labours of the late Father Damien should have received such recognition as is evinced in the announcement of the movement headed by H.R.H. the Prince -of Wales, and sh a fed in by a large J number of prominent men of all creeds and political paities. Commenced under such auspices, there is every reason to hope that the movement will succeed. It embraces not only the erection of a monument at Molokai, the scene of Father Damien's life work, but also two other schemes, which, if carried out, may go far to wipe out the reproach that may well be cast at England for her neglect in investigating thoroughly the nature and treat- ment of a disease that is so rife in some parts of her colonial dominions. It is proposed to found a leper ward at the Hospital for Diseases of the Skin, Black friars, to be called the Father Damien Ward, and in connection therewith to found travelling scholarships to promote the study of leprosy. The other suggestion is to follow up the recent recommendation of the Royal College of Physicians, and to despatch a Commission to India to determine in what manner the disease may be best alleviated and, if possible, eradicated. This, which we have more than once urged as the duty of the State, would necessarily require large funds, but no more fitting memorial of Father Damien's work could be well suggested. It must also be gratifying to Archdeacon Wright, who has done not a little in urging the recon- sideration of the subject, especially in view of the question of contagiousness."
" THE LYRE OF ANACREON."
THE LYRE OF ANACREON." The following beautiful poem is from the pen of Mr Oliver Wendell Holmes, the popular American poet :— The minstrel of the classic lay Of love and wine who sings, Still found the fingers run astray That touched the rebel strings. Of Cadmus he would fain have sung, Of Atreus and his line; But all the jocund echoes rung With songs of love and wine. 0 Ah, brothers I would fain have caught Some fresher fancy's gleam My truant accents find, unsought, The old familiar theme. Love, Love! but not the sportive child With shaft and twanging bow, Whose random arrows drove us wild Some threescore years ago Not Eros, with his joyous laugh, The urchin blind and bare, .But Love, with spectacles and staff, And scanty, silvered hair. Our heads with frosted locks are white, Our roofs are thatched with snow, Bat red, in chilling winter's spite, Our hearts and hearthstones glow. Our old acquaintance, Time, drops in, And while the running sands Their golden thread unheeded spin, He warms his frozen hands. Stay, winged hours, too swift, too sweet, And waft this message o'er To all we miss, from all we meet On- life's fast-crumbling shore Say that, to old affection true, We bug the narrowing chain Thit binds our hearts,—alas, how few The links that yet remain! The fatal touch awaits them all That turns the rocks to dust; From year to year they break and fall, They break, but never rust. Say if one note of happier strain This worn-out harp afford,— One throb that trembles, not in vain,— Their memory lent its chord. Say that when Fancy closed her winga And Passion quenched his fire, Love, Love, still echoed from the strings As from Anacreon's lyre!

THE LEPER.
THE LEPER. The Prince of Wales, it is stated, is ex- tremely anxious that Mr Yoxall, the leper engaged in the meat trade in London, shall c not suffer from the publicity given to his case. It is understood that when the arrangements connected with the Father Damien Memorial Fund are carried out, Yoxall will participate in its benefits, but in the meantime his Royal Highness desires to shield him fiom want, and, with this object in view, has sent a cheque to Mr Frank Harris, the hon. secretary of the Executive Committee, with a request that such steps shall be taken as shall seem needful in order to relieve Yoxall's im- mediate necessities.
THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SHOW.…
THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SHOW. Fine weather favoured the Royal Agri- cultural Show on Monday, and at a com- paratively early hour visitors began to pour into the show ground in large numbers. The railway companies offered special facilities from many districts, and vehicular traffic was so large that the Long Walk was almost 0 Z5 blocked. By nine o'clock the judging of live stock, poultry, and produce had begun, and during the morning there was a general ex- hibition of implements in motion, with de- monstrations of butter making in the dairy. During the morning judging has been pro- ceeding quickly in all classes. The champion prize of Y,25 for best blood mare in hunters was won by Mr Cooper, East Haddon, North- ampton the Queen's gold medals for the best stallion in coach horses and best maic or filly were awarded to Mr Burdett-Coutts, M.P., and Mr Thomas Kelsey, Hook House, Howden, Yorkshire, respectively.
THE ARMAGH RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
THE ARMAGH RAILWAY ACCIDENT. OFFICIALS IN THE POLICE COURT. At eleven o'clock on Monday, morning, James Elliott, conductor. of the Armagh excursion train; Thomas M'Gratb, engine driver; and William Moorhead, fireman, who are still under arrest, were brought up at the Court House, at Armagh, before Mrj Town- send, R.M. Mr Monroe represented the Crown, Mr Farrell appeared for Elliott, and Mr Gallagher for M'Grath and Moorhead. Thomas Cowan, traffic manager, deposed that the servants of the company in the train that left Dundalk to take the excursion train from Warrenpoint to Armagh were Thomas M'Grath, engine driver, Henry Parkinson, fireman, and Thomas Henry, guard. There was no other guard at the time. Mr Elliott was appointed by the witness to take charge of the train from Armagh to Wairenpoint. The others were under him, but the engine driver was only under him so far as the stopping and shunting of the train, lie had no control as to the speed or management of the engine. The engine was tested on Satur- day, under the direction of Major General Hutchinson, on behalf of the Hoard of Trade, and it proved capable of drawing a weight equal to that of the excursion train. The carriages were detached on the incline, and the brake proved capable of holding the train.
A CATECHISM FOR EVERYONE.
A CATECHISM FOR EVERYONE. WHAT ALL SAY MUST DE TRUE. What is Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters ? A noted vegetable remedy, prepared in the most skilful ar.d scientific manner, and containing the active principles of those plants which are generally acknowledged to be the best remedial agents, and to possess the most healing and curative properties, viz., sarsaparilla, gentian, burdock, dandelion, lavender, and saffron. What is its actions? It assists and promotes digestion, strengthens the nerves and muscles, cleanses and purifies the blood, enlivens the spirits, and removes all obstructions and impurities in the human body. It gives a tone to the whole system. It strengthens and fortifies those parts which have been weakened by disease, and are consequently more liable to colds and unhealthful influences. On account of its noted medicinal virtues it has gained the highest recommendations as the Best Family Medicine, and a remedy for every kind of weakness and general debility. J s it recommended for these disorders by trustworthy persons ? Yes. Mr. Gwilym Evans has received hundreds of testimonials attesting the virtues of his renowned Quinine Bitters from doctors, analysts, chemists, captains of vessels, clergymen, ministers, public singers and speakers, tradesmen, and others in all classes of society, who have them- selves proved its beneficial effects, and have been benefitted by it in various disease and ailments. Is it adapted to children's ailments as well as adultsl Yes. It is so purely vegetable and free from injurious substances that even tbe weakest in/ants, the feeblest females, and most helpless invalids may use it with safety, and the working-man need not abstain from his labour whilst using this wondrous curative mixture. flow can it be procured with the certainty that we obtain the genuine preparation ? 1.—Ask in any chemist's shop for GWILYM EVANS'S QUININE BITTERS, and see that the name Gwilym Evans is on the stamp label, and bottle. 2.—As the smallest sized bottles of this preparation are sold for 23. 9J., if a smaller quantity, say sixpennyworth is offered you, you may feel confident it is a fraud, and that you are being imposed upon. 3.—Do not be persuaded to take any other preparation, such as Extract of Quinine, Quinine Wine, or any other kind of bitters, under the excuse that it is quite as beneficial as the QUININE BITTERS, and much cheaper. This a purely false and misleading statement. Remember that only things which possess special merits to recommend them to public favour are deemed worthy of imitation, and the excellence and widespread fame of Gwilym Evans's Quinine Bitters have given rise to a host of worthless imitations, called by similar names, but not possessing the unfailing virtues of this Evans's Quinine Bitters have given rise to a host of worthless imitations, called by similar names, but not possessing the unfailing virtues of this excellent remedy. I GWILYM EVANS'S QUININE BITTERS. 4.—It is also sold in larger sized bottles at 4s. 6d., and should any difficulty be experienced in obtaining it, a bottle of either size will be sent carriage frae by parcel post on receipt of postal order for the mount, direct from the proprietors, ) QUININE BITTERS MANUFACTURING CO., LIMITED, LLANELLY, SOUTH WALES.

Eifty years ago there were probably not more than from 90,000 to 100,000 acres of fruit land in Great Britain. In 1872, the date of the first reliable record, it had increased to nearly 170,000 acres, and Mr Whitehead, a well-known authority, estimates the present acreage at about 214,000 acres. A short time ago there was published the results of a so-called Religious Census" of Wales, taken by an irresponsible Dissenter, who, for some extraordinary reason, seems to have been afraid to give them to the world before. There is no means of checking the accuracy of this person's estimate ank, knowing what is the usual character of Dis- senting figures," and especially bearing in mind the frauds deliberately perpetrated in 1851—when the Dissenting congregations were counted over and over again, like theatrical supers" represent- ing a make-believe army" on the stage-we entirely decline to accept the present computation as accurate. Still, as Mr Percy Andrews, of Basingstoke, has pointed out, if we assume its correctness, and also bear in mind that over 174 Dissenting bodies have certified their existence to the Registrar-General, it will easily .be seen that the Church in Wales must be larger than any single schismatic body — probably larger than almost any three or four of them put together. The Limerick Town Corporation has been informed by the Prisons Board that they have inquired into the state of Mr Finucane, M. P.'s health, and that the law must take its course. Mr Finucane has still halt ot his sentence of four months' imprisonment to serve. The nomination for West Fife takes place on July 1, and the polling, if any, on the 5th of July. At the last election the Hon R. P. Bruce, the late member, was returned without oppos- ition.
