The reserve men having" taiitH out and inspected, the battalion marched back to barracks. Here the bonks, &c having been inspected, the arms and accoutrements were takert into :-to:<:s again for the year, and in the tbc hu'-iness of paying off was co'nmenc-d and sjme f i'' e men departed for their homes the same eveniT,4. The work was wholly carried out by Saturday aftf. n n, and the training of 1885 became a thili of the past. As far as we could see the dispersion took place very quietly, much more so than u°ual, and we saw nothing with which reasonable fault couid be found. THEFT FROM THE MARKET.—At the County Halt on Monday morning before the Right Hon. H. Cecil Raikes, M.P., and Edwd. Thompson, Esq., a middle- aged man named Thomas Evans, of no fixed place of abode (described as being an adept at change ringing and the three card trick), was in custody charged with stealing nssh meat. the property of Thomas Jones. A youth named John Goodwin deposed that he was an assistant in the employ of Mr ihos. Jones, butcher, NpNi,-ztre,-t, who holds a stall in the market. Between nine and ten on the previous Saturday even- ing the prisoner c'tme to the stall, which was in his charge and asked for a pennyworth of suet. Witness ? customer name d Ellen replied that he had none. A customer named E!!en Daviet was present, and in consequence of what she said he t' the prisoner to replace some meat which he had just taken, and which he had concealed under his coat. The ptisoner did so, and he (witness) gave him in charge of P.C.'s Pearson and Manley. who conveyed hhn to the Police Station. Mrs Ellen Davies, wife of Robert Davies, Little Mi'1, corroborated this statement, and said she was just about t'< purchase the piece of mutton produced when the pn-oner snatch"! it up and placed it under his coat. She afterw:m18 purchased the meat, paying 9d for it. The prisoner, who pleaded guilty, wns nned 5g or seven days' unMieonment in default of distress, and as the money was not forthcoming he was removed in custody. DEATU OF A VETERAK.—lt IS with very much regret that we announce the death of Quarter Master tjaMcant Wm. Lougliton, after a long and lingering illness, which t,)ok place on Monday. The deceased had been c,)i--iected with the Flint Militia for twenty yearii—fr:)m 1SS2 to 1882. and for almost the whole of that Uft)8 he acted as Quarter Master Sergeant, re- tiring in 1882. owiig to age and ill health. The deceased had Men nmch active service, and was a thot'cn h soIfHt'r in every respect, and we give the following record of his life, which is taken out of his small book," the facts being duly attested. He was born in thf city of St. Albans, Hertfordshire, in the year 1820, living in that district till he waa grown up, when he removed to Watford, in the same county, where he was engaged as groom, and where on the 27th of Anril. 1S42, he enlisted into the nrst battalion of the 60th liifl:s. After a service at home of a little more than three years, he accompanied his battalion to Kurrache, in the East Indies, where he landed on the 15th October, 1845, and stayed till the following February, going- then to Lower Scinde, which had been annexed only a few months previously, conse- quent to the battle of Meanee. He remained in Lower Scinde dun g the first Sikh war, but on the breaking out of the second Sikh war of 1$48, his bat- talion was moved up the Induf, and he saw active service f,)r the n' ft time atthe siega of Mooltan, where the late Sir Herbert Edwards gained such renown. He was present at the taking ot the suburbs of Mooltan, on the 27th of December, 1848 a'so at the 8ubspq']6!it sie;e operations up to the surrender of Mooltan. on the 22nd of January. 1849. Thance he accompanied the battalion and joined the army of the Punjauh. und?r Lord Gough, a few days after the battle of ChittianwaHah in time for the battle of Goojprat, where the Sikh army was completely defeated. He joined the pursuit, and was present at the surr"nder of the remains of the Sikh Army at R.wal Pindi, then pushing on in pursuit of the Afghans under Dhost Mahomed to the ferry over the Indus at Attock, where also the river Cabul joins the Indus. The river was crossed in hot pursuit, the British force marching on Pea- hawur. driving Dhost Mahomed through and beyond the Khyber Pass. The battalion remained in the Punjaub for some time af forwards, and in 1850 the deceased was employed with others in an expedition to Kohat, one of those punative expeditions which were so common on the north-west frontier, until these latter years. The battalion, however, seems to have enjoyt-d comparative rest until the great Indian Mutiny of ]857, and even at the beginning of that the battalion does not seem to have been very actively encased, save at the outskirts of the 6shtins'. beinc engaged in dispersing some insurgent villagers in the Meerut district' &c. In 1858, however, moie serious and systematic work had to be essayed. The battalion was employed in the Rohilcund. beginning with an action at 6uKhwa!!a on the 17tb of April, the battle of Nugeena on the Slat. and the relief of Moradubad on the 25th. long marches intervening. On the 5th of May he was present at an action on the Dojura, which waa followed on the 6th by the assault and capture of Barrellly. This in its turn was followed on the llth by the bombardment of Shajehampore, together with the defeat of the rebels and the relief of the garrison there. On the 24th of the same month the fort of Bunnei was captured, and this was followed by a pursuit of the rebels to the left bank of the Goomtee, the destruction of the fort of Mahundee on the 26th, and the capture and destruction of Shahabad on the 1,;t June. This severe fighting and marching was followed by a few weeks' rest, but on the 8th of Octo- ber he was in Oude. and took part in an action at Bunkagong on the 18th October, under Sir James Outram, followed by an action at Pusgaon on the 19th, and a battle at Ressoolpore on the the 23th, and an attack on and capture of Fort Mettowlie on the first of December. This proved to be the last action in which he took part, and we think it will be con- ceded that he took part in his share of them. For these he had three medals and two clasps, besides a good conduct medal. He did not stay in India long after the mutiny, for we find him landing in England on the 6th of August, 1860, after a service in India extending over fifteen years. In the year 1850 he was promoted corpora), sergeant in 1852, and color- sergeant in 1859. In the year 1862 he joined the Flintshire MUitia, being appointed quartermaster sergeant soon after, and keeping up his connection with the battalion until November, 1882, a period of a little more than twenty years, and a service in the army of nearly forty-one years. To those who were acquainted with him we need not speak of his sterling worth, nor of the simplicity and uprightness of his character. His health had been failing him some time, and on Monday morning the end came. We believe that he was twice married, but has no issue. surviving. He was buried on Thursday in the burial ground attached to the English Congregational Chapel, where for many years he has been a faithful and consistent member. The funeral was quite in character with the life of the deceased-simple and unostentatious. His comrades of the regiment fol- lowed him to the grave, but there was no military dis- play, while the townspeople generally, among whom he was greatly and generally respected, paid his memory every respect. When we arrived in Mold, now fifteen years ago. he performed the duties of sergeant-major—except on occasions of display—-md it was the convection of one who knew him that he was beyond question the most competent man on the permanent staff at that time for the post. But he was not a man to thrust his claims on anyone's notice, and preferred doing his duties quietly and well, being best pleased when his own conscience testified that his duties had been done faithfully and well.

Osborne Morgan, in addressing the children, impressed upon them the necessity of attending regularly and making themselves proficient in reading, writing, and accounts. As they would be the men and women of the next generation, and the future hope of the country lay with them, it behoved them to make the best use they could of the means now placed within the reach of all for acquiring a thoroughly sound education. A lady bad recently told him that her housemaid had received a better education than a duchess had some years agj and if they must become useful members <'f society, they must pront by the advantages they possessed, which were far greater than those enjoyej years ago. The o The chairman had referred to the part which he took in making the laws of the country, and the last law which be had taken part in WM called the Inter- mediate Education Bill for Wales, a hard name for them to remember, but it was for their especial benefit it was being enacted, for by it schools would be established in this country for both boys and girls, in which there would be scholarships of B20 and upwards to enable the quickest and brightest boys and girls to extend their education, as the schools would form a stepping stone between the Board Schools and the great Universities. He booed that next year there would be many more children who would receive the special prizes for regular attend- ance, and he was very pleased to bear that many of them had attended so well during the year. (Ap- plause.) Mr Astley, on behalf of the teachers and children, thanked Mr and Mrs Morgan and the other ladies present for honoring them with their presence, and expressed a wish that there would be many more to receive a prize next year. He called upon the children to express their appreciation of their kindness by riIlgitJ cheers, and this was done most heaitily. Mr Morgan, in acknowledging their kindness, said that their best thanks were due to their teachers who had taken such care to instruct them, and al&o to Mr Harrop for presiding and giving them such encourage- ment to persevere and become clever, and asked them to acknowledge it, which the children did with much animation. The children having sung the hymn, There is a green hill far away." the interesting pro- ceedings terminated. BUCKLEY.

CONSERVATIVE MEETING AT BUCKLEY.
CONSERVATIVE MEETING AT BUCKLEY. Unler the auspices of the Mold Conservative A-sociation, a meeting was held at the Primitive Methodist School-room on Monday evening, when the chair was occupied by Mr John Watkinson, Buckley Collieries. In a few remarks he introduced the names of th¿ Hon. Menry Neville Mostyn and Mr Ap Hugh WiiHams as candidates in the Conservative interest for the county and boruu,,h respectively, and these gentlemen having spoken at some length in denuncia- tion of the p"!icy of the present Government, they were followed by the Riht Hon. H. C. Raikes, M.P., who said that the Conservative party was F.bove all things and in all things a national party. Its object was r.s far as possible to make the least and not the most of those differences which separated class from class. It was quite p(issible to handle burning ques- tions in twu very different spirits it was possible to dt-al with them as the means of enlarging and widen- ing the separation of classes, ar.d it was possible to deal with them in a spirit of goodwill as the means of bringing classes together. This was the object and policy of the Conservative party. As a proof of that statement he quoted the Master and Servant Act, the Friendly Societies Act, and the Act removing from working men the !<tinma of political crime because they chose to act differently from their emp!oyers. (Cheers.) Refernnz to foreign affairs, he said the policy of the late Lord Beaconsfield and the policy of the Conservative party was not to be actuated by an effusive sympathy with any foreign nation, but it was governed nrst by a sense of England's duty. and secondly by a recogni- tion of English interest. It was the duty of a man when he became a Minister of the Queen to put aside personal predilections and to !ook 6rst to the duty which he owed to his Queen and his country. That was the policy of Lord BeaconsHeld, the policy of the ?-a's"t       au I '? was the policy which would prevail when they c?me into power again. (Cheers.) During the fix yeara the Conservatives held power they secured peace with honor, and the influence of England in the Councils of Europe. Great as was the power of England when they entered office, they left England greater than when they took oiBca. and this they did with an ex- penditure, comparatively speaking, of miilions of pounds less than the sum which the Liberals were now spending. (Cheers.) The fo eign policy of the Government had disgraced England in the eyes of foreign nations. Alluding to home affair", he re- marked that every trade was drooping, every industry declining, and any Government which would not in. stitute an inquiry into such a state of affairs was unworthy of the confidence of the people. (Cheers.) A Correspondent writes Mr Raikes' criticism on the Intermediate Education Bill for Wales, and on the Sunday Closing Act, caused the audience, which consisted almost entirely of Liberals, to show their en- tire disapproval of his remarks, consequently he had to draw it mild, and he had very little more to say. The Chairman called upon Mr Humphreys, the Con- servative agent, to address the meeting in favor of the two candidates, but so much disfavour was displayed towards him, that although he made every attempt to make his voice heard, he had to sit down in despair.— Mr Gregory, Hawarden Collieries, proposed a vote of thanks to Mr R ikes and the two candidates. This gained a cheer from the Conservatives, who were few, but mMt of the audience shouted out Lord Grosvenor for ever." The proceedings concluded by sinking the National Anthem," which was preceded by hearty cheers for the Grand Old Man." COEDPOETH -AN-D-MIN-ERA-. WERN CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. We are requested to publish the following:—"In consequence of receiving an uncourteous a-ld disordinate notice of burial, and to prevent the recurrence of the same, the Congregational Church at Wern unanimously passed the following resolution at a Church meeting du!y convene i on the SLtit day of May, 1885. That this Church utterly disregards every notification to dispense with the service of her minister to omciate at burials in this place, and t:Jat no one outside the Church has a right to officiate at the same without his consent. Also, that every request for permission must be made to the minister by the person appointed to omciate.' "—Richard Jones, secretary. CORWEN. BURGLARY.—An extraordinary robbery was !ate!y committed at the house of Miss Davies, BrynIIan, Gwyddelwern. It seems that the servant maid left the house at a quarter to eight in the evening (Mi<s I Davies having left earlier) for chapel, and on returning at ha.lf.p"st; eight the maid on entering the house and going upstairs, found that the bedrooms had been entered into, all the draw-'rs therein having been thrown open and upset. The steps had also attached drawers, where the purses were kept, and the drawers were opened, and £17 in gold taken out of one, leaving S2 uatouchea the second purse containing a B5 note was left unstolen, but thrown abouut in the aams manner as the first. DENBIGH. POLICE COURT.—On Monday, Joseph Davies, car- driver, Va)e-ro:<.d, Rhyl, was brought up in custody before the Mayor and Mr T. Evans, and fined 2s 6d and costs for being drunk and disorderly on Sunday afternoon in High-street. He was further charged wit!! assaulting Sergt.

His brother, Mr J. Copner Wynne Edwards, accompanied by Mr Hugh Wynne Edwards, immediately started for London. The Rev. Canon Robert Wynne Edwards was the youngest surviving son of the late Canon Edwards, of Rbuddlan, and was born there May 28*.h, 1824, and was therefore sixty-one years of age. He was educa- ted at Oxford, and became a Vaughan Exhibitioni-it at Brazenose College in 1842; took his B.A. in 1846, and M.A. in 1861; and was ordained Deacon and Priest by the Bishop of St. Asaph in 1848, in which year he was curate of Rhuddlan and St. Asaph; he was curate of Gresford from 1849 to 1852. vicar of Gwersyllt from 1852 to 1858, and also Diocesan Inspector of Schools from 1854 to 1858 rector of LIanShangel-yn- Gwyllfa from 1858 ;:u 1860, in which year, and until 1877, he was vicar of Meifod. He was appointed t" thePrebendiaryofMe)iden in St. Asaph Cathedtal in 1865, and Canon Residentiary in 1867; Welsh Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of St. Asaph in 1870, vicar of Hamhaiadr-yn-Cimmerch, near Den- bigh, in 1877, and Rural Dean of Denbigh in 1882, and has led a remarkably busy, active life. On the 8th April, 1858, he married Elizabeth Ann, daughter of Archdeacon Robert Wiekham, whom he leaves a widow with five daughters. Mr Edwards had felt unwell during the past week or ten days, and on Monday he and his wife went to London for the pur- pose of consulting an eminent medical man. The consultation was to have taken place on Wednesday morning, but early that morning a telegram was re- ceived announcing that he was ill, and entreating his brother to go up to town. Preparations were instantly made to do so, but in half an hour afterwards another telegram was received announcing his death. The funeral will take place to-day (Saturday), at about half-past twelve o'clock, at Llanrhaiadr. The late Canon Edwards was a ripe Welsh scholar, and was much respected in the Vale of Clwyd and throughout the diocese wherever he was known. The living of Llanrhaiadr was worth some JMOO 1 year, but was much reduced of late years. The Canonry would be worth JE350 a year. TOWN COUNCIL. MONDAY.—Present: The Mayor (Mr R. C. B.

Mr Phillips warmly thanked all for their good wishes. The Rev. W. D. Owen having thanked Mrs Philtips for her kindness and hospitality, the pleasant meeting closed with the National Anthem, the solo being taken by Miss Johnson.

The Town Clerk read the following letter LIangedwyn, Oswestry. May 21. MR MAYOR,—I am most anxious to express to you and to the inhabir<tnts of Oswe try my deep gratitude (or the great respect anct love they showed to my husband's mem- ory on Friday last when his funeral passed through Os- westry. All the sympathy that has been shown to us has been no sma t comfort to us, in our tile-long sorrow, i remain, Mr Mayor, yours truly, MAfUE E. WILLIUIS WYKX. His Worship the Mayor of Oswestry. -On the motion of the Deputy-Mayor, seconded by Mr Weaver, the letter was ordered to be entered on the minutes.—The Town Clerk said the Mayor wished him to state that he attended the Committee of the House of Lords on the subject of the Water Act, when he was attended by the Borough Surveyor and the Deputy Town Clerk. The Bill passed the Com- mittee and it would be read a third time on June 6, and immediately afterwards the Royal Assent would be given. It would probably then be necessary to call a special meeting of the Council to consider how the work should be carried out.—Alderman Thomas said the Mayor could call a special meeting when the Royal Assent was given.—Mr Smith said as soon as the Act passed, the nrst thing to be done was to pre- pare plans and apecincations. and an estimate of the cost of the works, for they could not ask for power to borrow until they knew what the work would cost. The necessary instructions as to the plans and esf. mates could be given by the Water Committee, and 'vhen the question of money came to be considered, i'he Finance Committee could be called in.-It was agreed to to leave the matter in the hands of the Mayor. Mr J. Jones asked if, as a Board, they had any con- trol or authority over the drainage and water supply of houses outside the borough boundary. He under- stood that there were houses just outside the boundary which were without drainage or a water supoly.—The Town Chrk said they had no control over such houses, unless they should be a nuisance to the borough itself. If there were any houses outside the borough without drainage or water supply, and if they were built in a jerry condition, it would be the duty of the council to call the attention of the Rural Authority to the matter, because of course if any di-ease broke out in consequence of the defective buildings it would spread to the borough. He be- lieved the Rural Sanitary Authority had no bye-Iawa, so that people were allowed to build as they liked. but he did not think the Authority would a)Iow a house to be occupied if it was without drainage or water supply.—Mr Whitfield said on Saturday the Committee received an application from the builder of some houses just outside the borough for a water supply, but as the property was outside the borough. they could not grant the application until they kad & better water supply.—Mr J. Jones said his question had special reference to some cottages which were very badly drained.—The Town Clerk said a letter was read at the Markets Committee from a number of grocers and provision merchants, stating that it wn8 intended tf close on Saturday nights at ten, and a-tkir.g t))a.t the Council would require the market to be closed at the same hour. At present they could not do that, for the terms of the arrangement were that the hall should remain open until elever.—The Deputy-Mayor said he wan entirely in favor of cotupiyinK with the petition, but they could not do so until the letting of the tolls was re-ccnsidered in August. RHOSLLANERCHRUGOG. ACCIDENT AT HAFOD COLLIERY—On Friday mom- ing while a young marrie i man named Daniel Jonea, residing at the Ponkey, was beginitg to work in his stall, in No 1 Pit, a "fati came down covering the lower part of his body. The poor fellow who was suffering great pain was extricated an quickly as II possible, and taken by a St John's Ambulance party to the surface, and conveyed home, where he was attended to by the doctor. A broken leg was the principal of his injuries. THE BORING OPERATION.—Thia trial it carried on with unabated vigour, and exceptionally good progress has been made, though the work, since our last report, has several times been impeded by the dis-jointing ot the boring rod which is now nearly 100 yards long. The last accident occured on Monday, about 3 30 p.m. when the drill-bit, three-quarter yards in length. became unattached at the bottom of the hole. but it was grappled and suceoasfully brought up before 5 30 p.m., the same day, a feat highly creditable to the dexterity and perserverance of the present employes. For the past six weeks the boring baa been in a bed of Freestone, which, according to geological catcula- tions, would be found no les than twenty-two feet in thickness in the bearing running through the trial- ground, consequently, as the atone was to hard to bore at a quicker rate than an average of nine inches a day, it was expected to take some weeks yet before the bottom of the bed would be reached. Happily, however, thnse calculations have proved erroneous, for on Tuesday evening the rock was passed through, the bed being only nine yards, one inch thick, the total depth of the hole being ninety-four yards, two inches. Uuderlying the rock a bed of unusually strong shale has been found. The greatest interest in the important change was shown by the colliers when the news wns brought down on Tuesday evening, and many went to inspect the specimens of the shale exhibited at the Eale Inn. The general opinion was that it is the best shale met with since the commence- ment of the boring, and from its exceptionally fav trite character it it confidently expected that the coal found beneath-of which no doubt remains— will be far superior to the seams already discovered. It would appear that we are on the eve of an im- portant di covory, and the operation", will doubt!ess. be watched daity with anxious and increasing interest by large numbers in this neighbourhood. RUABON. I PETTY SESSIONS. YKSTERDAY}(FRiDAT.)-Before Owen Sidney Wynne, Esq., and Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, Bart., M.P. Drunk on Licensed Premisel.

As soon as the fuse was ignited a quantity of gas in the working took fire which lit a feeder, and this communicating with the gas in the waste, an explosion took place by which the defendant and three other men were burnt, but nut seriously.—Mr Acton said the defendant had not been complained about before, and he wad Sued JE1 and costs.

I CLUB ANNIVERSARY. -1 Glorious weather favored the anniversary on Wed- nesday of the Pride of the Rossett Lode," No. 1531, of the Loyal Order of Ancient Shepherds, A. U. The village was all astir t-) watch the procession of the brethren, attired in their gay scarves and carrying Soral emble.ns on their crooka. The beautiful banner of the district led the way, followed by the juvenile members, and the Rossett Church Choir Bram Band, the adult members bringing up the rear. The Lodge has increased dvring the past year both in numbers and finances, and the turnout on Wednesday was the largest ever yet held during the twelve years the Lodge has been in existence. After visiting the residences of Capt. Barker, Mr Russell, and Mr Townshend, the members attended Divine service in the Parish Church, where an earnest and practical discourse was delivered by the Rector of Putford, the Rev. J. R. Williams. A capital dinner (admirably served by Mr and Mrs Dudleston, Trevor Arms, Marford) was partaken of by the members in a spacious marquee adjoining the schools. The Rev. J. R. Williams presided, and was supported by Mr Townshend, Mr Jas. Boydel!, Dr. Manisty, Rev. J. Meredith, Mr G. Cromar, Lodge secretary Mr W. Ledsom, Chief Shepherd; Mr James Wright, district treasurer; Mr Samuel Cattieroll, district trustee; Mr Porter, and Mr Morion. On the re- moval of the cloth, the usual loyal and patriotic toasts were given and duly honored. The toist of the Bishops and Ciergy, and Ministers of all de- nominations," was proposed by Mr Townshend, and suitably acknowledged by the Revs. J. R. Williams andj. Meredith. The next toast, "Success to the Loyal Order of Ancient Shepherds," coupled with the name of Mr Ledsom, was proposed by Mr J. BoydeU, I and was heartily drunk. A letter from the Rev. T. V. Wickham, who is at Buxton recr.nting his health, was here read by Dr. Manisty, in which the writer regretted this, his first absence from the club's anni- versary, and hoping all would spend a happy day. Mr W. Ledsom, in the course of a lengthy and interesting speech, expressed the pleasure it gave him to be present and to hear how steadily their lodge was pro- gressing, especially in regard to the juvenile branch. He spoke of the great value of friendly societies and of the rapid growth of the Order of Shepherds whi'jh now stood third in order of amiiated societies. He read out the chief statistics in regard to the Order, and said they proved that the working classes were growing more thnfty and frugal. In spite of threatened war and bad trade their society had improved both numerically and financially, and h<* was glad that :\t the annual meeting lately held at Bristol the directors had decided that all lodges who did not register themselves before next December were to be cut off from the Order-such were nothing better than rotten branches. After stating that the teaching of morals was next to preaching, and exprrs-iing the pleasure he felt at seeing so many of the supporters of the club present, and whom he urged to become re embers of the lodge, he resumed his seat amid much cheering. The toast of the Ladies and genalemen supporters of the club was given by Mr G. Cromar, and responded to by Mr Townshend and Mr J. Boydell. In a felicitous speech the toast of Success to the Rossett Lodge" was proposed by the Rev. J. Meredith, and acknowledged by Mr G. Cromar, who apoke of the kindness shown to the Lodge by the Boydell family. He referred the members to the L 'dg? balance sheet, which was a most favorable one in every respect. They numbered on their books 109 adult and twenty-nine juvenile members, and the only death during the year was that of a member's wife. They had a very worthy doctor, and he ha 1 very great pleasure la proposing his health. Dr. Manisty having responded, the health of Miss BoydeU, Alyn Cottage (who so kindly grants the use of the tieU in each year), was siven by Mr Morton, and suitably acknowledged by Mr J. BoydeU. The toast of the Host and Hostess having been given i and acknowledged, the proceedings terminated. The beauti u) weather induced a large number to visit the Held in the evening, the music for dancing being supplied by the band, under the able leadership of Mr J. Peters, bandmaster. RUTHN.

NOTES AND QUERIES. - TOWN…
NOTES AND QUERIES. TOWN AND COUNTRY. The Darby day this year was one of the most dalightfuliy Sne days we have had for this event for some time. Very warm also, and it was therefore most appropriate that the winner should be Melton (melting, do you see !) < I should perhaps explain that the above paragraph is written at the earnest request of several admiring frtends. Obvious, eh ? Well—perhaps—ao, but no ap. propriate. When the parentage of the joke comes t' be made out. its fathers will be M the gandzi of the sea. < It is really delightful to see how the Liberals, both in the County and the Boroughs, are closing up the rivets and mending any weak places that might he in their armour. As far as organization goes both ptaces are complete, and judging by the enthusiasm displayed at the meetings, the return of the Lineral candidates seems certain. This ii, to me, very gratifying, but whilst justly congratulating yourselves upon having the best of the c.mdi fates and the most perfect of organisation, all is useless unless each of you feela and works and fights as if on you individually rested the fortune of the day. The Liberal danger is over con- Sdence. < The preparation for war made in the Liberal camp has not been without its due effect upon the Tories. The selection of the Right Hon. G. Osborne Morgan and Major West for the county divisione, and Sir Robert Cunliffe for the borouvhs, has not been long before calling for a counterblast from the Tories. On Thursday Sir Watkin and Mr Owen SIaney Wynne were in town, together with the Hon. G. T. Kenyon. But the electors require more than con- venient courtesies paid few months before the elec- tion. It is too palpably a put on. I fancy from what I hear that Mr Raikes will hard)y congratulafe himself upon the state of Toryism in the parts of Wales he has just visited. He went to Buekley. but his attacks upon Mr John Roberts, the esteemed borough member, was met with a remark- able demonstration of disapproval. Hearty cheer-) were raided for Mr Roberts and for his celebrated Bill, whi)st one man expressed his opinion that the Honorahie Henry, Mr Roberts' proposed opponent, had no business in Parliament, for he couldn't speak more than Mr Gladstone's lap(log. This was strong, but such statements sometimes have a very excellent effect. The visit of Tory members to Wales appears to me to be a very risky procedure. In the homeopathic system, the basis of all prescriptions i< that like cures like. If th'' Liberals want to do their cause good let them h:til with delight the visit of Tory speakers for they will hocneopathicatly stamp out Toryi-nn in the Principality. Anent some remarks I made a while ago about the Wrexham Cricket Club, the bun. secretary sends me the following DEAR QutZ.—I notice that in last Saturday's Adrertiser you h:tvo a stash at the Wrt.xb;m Cricket Ctub. for tho miseraMo show in:td-i on Whit-Monday. I don't 8n ) hult with you for that, but why, in the name of all that. is f;L.r, did yuu mt give us a goo t word when we won our nrst three matchea. Well, if I failed to do so, let me do it now. that is if I could forget Saturday. Ah! where is the excel- lent club which formerly stood so well. Gone ap- parently. for Saturday saw the Wrexham lose five wickets for as many runs t It is not to be surprised, for the listless way the members play is scandalous. If they don't want to play why join, or if they join why don't they make an effort to decently represent the town ? A lot of lads from the schools could do better. Would you believe it that the Tories in Wrexham have adopted, and that publicly, the caucus. They have indeed, and aftpr so much abuse of the tliiii, they bated and abhtrred, they now turn to it, and love it and Mess it and adopt it. 0 for those blessed. Messed days, when constituencies were not manned, and the wird puller was not," sihs the .,c)od old Tory, and yet the tast man I should have ex- pected to have teen having a share in the dreadful thins is a vice-chairman of the North Ward. Oh, Mr Conraa, Mr Conran, how are the mighty fallen. I hear that Sir Watkin will take his seat on Mon(lay tn the tloase ot commons, and wm oe tntro- dttced by Sir Stafford Northcote and Mr Raikes. Now, I think, that -i the Liberals have ,,iven him the seat he ought to have been introduced by Mr Osborne Morgan and Sir Robert CuniiSe. ALFRED QUIZ.

SHOCKING WfFE MURDER ATI AB¡;;RYðTWYTll.
SHOCKING WfFE MURDER AT I A shockmg and determined wife murder was com- mitted at Abbrystwyth just before midnight on Friday by Sergeant John Price, of the 5th Battery Cardigan Artillery. During the recent training, just completed. Price lived with his wife, whose maiden name was Davis, in Poplar-row, in the neighbourhood of the railway station. They had only recently re- sided th re, and there have been differences of late, which on Friday culminated in a quarrel. Mrs Price went, to the house with a determination to remove her things and leave her husband. He refused nod reeir.ed her and then shot her three tim :s with a revolver. One bullet penetrated the brain near the eye and another through the ri,;ht temple, whilst the third shot smashed the right cheek bone. The L juries were of such a nature that they proved Imme- diately fatal, although three medind men were prompt y in attendance. Prica apparently mad j n' attempt to escape, but discharged another barrel of the revolver at bis neck, but the bullet did not pene- trate, and only caused a superficial wound. He stumb'ed and fell directly he tired at himself, and the revolver fit-w out of his hand, and was picked up by a neighbour named Jenkins. Two other men, named Griffiths and B!and, then seized and secured Price, who was conveyed to the police station, where he wa., formally charged with the murder by the Chief- const:\b'e The deceased, who w:is about twenty-six years of aJ, was a native of Aberystwyth, and the prisoner has lived both at Swansea and Brist '1. where he ts said to ha\i, another wife and family. The de- ceased had an infant, horn before their recent marriage, but the ninerencfs do not appear to have been about it, but because she would not leave Abetystwyth with Pricf. An inq'u-st was h'-Id on the body of the de- ceased on Saturday by Dr Rowland, th' borough coroner, an.I a verdict of wilful iii,irtlei, was re- turned a¡:ain:<t Pnc: Th3 ,freit excitement in the town, nothin.; of the kind li..Lv:liig occurred in the neighbourhood for over a hundred years.

He staged th.tt the deceased gave him grpat provocation all the evening, and thft .-<he had determined to leave him and take the child a.vay. He became infuriated, and did not know what happened aftarwards. The prisoner was committed for trial on the capital charge.
