THE WORLD'S GOSSIP. Like the majority of old ladies, the Queen loves to use her own discretion, and on her way north. when she stopped at Perth, she rather testily waved ofi both the attendants who hurried forward to the railway saloon carriage to assist her in to the hotel, though her rate of progress was painfully slow, and had to be assisted by the aid of her stick. It is interesting while a politician of to-day is making a covert attack on the Throne, to read in the recently-published "Gossip of the Century" the following account of an incident at Her Majesty's coronation — When the venerable Lord Rolle, aged ninety-five, who had already slipped on the steps of the Throne, came in his turn to do homage, the young Queen, in whose heart a spontaneously benevolent respect for age surmounted the dry dictates of Court etiquette, turning to those around her, said with lovable nnirete, 'May I not get up to meet him ? and, without waiting for permission, rose and advanced down two or three steps to spare the aged peer the risk of another fall. That simple act, in an instant, touched every heart and won the loyal affection of all present. The expression of this feeling on their part burst forth unchecked, echo- ing through the vast building, and the incident will live in the pages of history after all those whose sympathies it drew have ceased to remem- ber." The Empress of Russia is a true sister of the Princess of Wales. The kiss her Majesty gave to the Sister of Charity suffering the agonies of cholera in the St. Petersburg Hospital will live in history. Like the kiss that caused the death of Princess Alice, it was a dangerous and heroic act, and it is to be hoped no harm will follow. The cholera bacillus enters the system through the mouth more rapidly than through any other organ of the body. The German Emperor is said to be exceedingly pleased that his seventh child is a daughter. He telegraphed the good news at once to the Queen, and a cordial message of congratulation was promptly flashed back to Berlin from Balmoral. Eighty-four years have elapsed since a Queen of Prussia last gave birth to a daughter. The birth of this daughter has prevented the realisation of a very absurd proposal. The Emperor has six sons already. Had a seventh been born. he was to have been allowed to ask the whole nation to become its god parents. We should really pity an infant brought up under the awful responsibility of having to redeem the promises of a whole nation made in his behalf. It is from the Queen of Denmark that her three daughters—the Princess of Wales. the Empress of Russia, and the Duchess of Cumberland—derive their beauty and their perennial youth. Queen Maria, at the age of three score and ten, is still a very handsome woman, with flashing eyes and lively manners, which cause her to look at least 15 years younger than her actual age. A few days hence the silent plains of Palestine will resound for the first time with the whistle of a railway engine for the line from Jaffa to Jeru- salem is now completed. There is much distress, I h"ar, among the numerous Jewish pilgrims who still flock to the land of their fathers. Speaking of the Jews reminds me that they have lately been strongly advised to seek commissions in the British Army. The German Emperor does all he can to discourage the auti-Semetie feeling which strongly prevails in his army. He has recently promoted an Israelitish officer, who had been much abused on account of his faith, to be his aide-de-camp. While Mr. Gladstone is almost universally known as the Grand Old Man, it is considered by Sir Andrew Clark that Mrs. Gladstone has as good a right to the title of the Grand Old Woman. On her 80th birthday she passed the morning writing letters, and felt no need for the assistance of spec- tacles or glasses of any kind as aids to the sight. Every morning, while at Hawarden, Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone attend early service at the church, three- quarters of a mile from the Castle. Whatever the ,tri 'L weather, the Prime Minister invariably walks to church and back, even when snow is falling heavily. Mrs. Gladstone drives thither and back in her little pony carriage. It is said that Mr. Gladstone does not know what it is to have a head- ache. Sir William Harcourt appears to be no exception to the singular fate that has afflicted recent Chan- cellors of the Exchequer with bad eye-sight. He is now Wiesbaden for the purpose of undergoing a course of the waters, and consulting a specialist as to his eyes, of which he is already said to have lost the sight of one. Among receut Chancellors of the Exchequer Mr. Lowe was nearly blind. Sit Michael Hicks-Beach suffered from cataract, and Mr. Goschen is quite painfully short-sighted. It is a curious coincidence that one of the most prominent members of both sections of the Irish party is the son of a policeman. Mr. Sexton's father was a member of the force," and in his official capacity assisted at many of those eviction scenes that are now so eloquently denounced by his talented son. Mr. Leamy's father took off his uniform to become the lessee of the historic wooden toll bridge that spans the Suir to Water- ford. a position which he occupied until he became a wealthy man. Owing to the presence of cholera. Lord and Lady DufTerin have abandoned their projected yachting tour along the coit of Brittany and Normandy. For the same reason, thousands of British tourists have forgone their annual Continental trip this year. The hotel and restaur- ant keepers of Paris are unanimonsly bewailing the falling off in their custom this season. The few people who have visited Paris have been made to pav the most extortionate charges in order that the hotel-keepers might recoup themselves as far as possible, for the defection of other customers. And yet in Brittany, I am assured, there are many hotels where you may live wcomtortably for three francs a day. Mr. Gordon Bennett, the proprietor of the Xnr York Ifrrnl/L who has just taken a part of one of the largest preserves in France for the shooting season, may be congratulatad on having a very devoted staff, for Mr. Stanhope, who has been sub- mitting his body to be experimented upon by the Russian scientist. M. HafSkine, with his anti- choleraic virus, is a leader-writer for the Paris edition of his journal. Lord Iveagh, who recently bought the Savernake Estate from the creditors of the Marquis of Ailes- bury,has decided to spend no less than £ 200,000 in improving it. This will be good news for the tenants, who, if the High Court had not permitted the sale of the property, would have been sweated by the miserable late owner's creditors to the last penny, to pay the highest possible interest on the capital sunk. It is far better that they should fall into the hands of a wealthy and liberal nobleman like Lord I veag-h. than into the hands of such Philistines as these. One can imagine a wages revolt among game- keepers but who would have believed that ghillifls would strike ? They have done it, how- ever. In the forest of Khedarrock, near Ullapool, has the standard of revolt been raised. Headed by a piper blowing a pibroch, the servitors of sport have marched off the moors and left their em- ployers to feud for themselves. Whatever the lairds may think of the movement, to the deer it can only give unbounded satisfaction. The marriage of the Earl of Rivensworth with Mrs. Baker-Cresswell was a most, brilliant affair among the X orthllmbrians, and calls to mind that at the village of Cromwell, where the wedding took place, and which has from time immemorial belonged to the family of the bride, many legends and stories are told. The most curious is that of the Wrhite Lady of Cresswell, who on a stormy day was standing" on the tower of the Castle, and saw her lover, a great Danish chieftain, slain in cold blood by her own brother. She shut herself up for ever after and starved to death, and it is s.id that on stormy nights she visits the treacherous coast.

EAST GLAMORGAN CALVINISTIO METHODISTS. The monthly meeting was held at Blaen- Rhondda September 3th and 9th, and largely attended, the Rev. W. Lewis. Cwmpark, in the chair, lintroducing the meeting with prayer. The 11 9 business was proceeded with. It was passed that the next monthly meeting was to be held at Penarth English Calvinistic Methodist Chapel on October 12th. Also, it was decided to hold the examination of the ministerial candidates at Penarth in connection with the monthly meeting. The reports were read of the various delegates and committees who had been appointed by the pre- vious monthly meeting to carry out certain things. Alderman Jones Griffiths, in his report, stated that an English Church has been constituted at Tre- herbert under very favourable circumstances and in perfect harmony with the Welsh Church, which has promised to the young Church pecuniary support. This the Alderman very much com- mended. and called the attention of other churches in similar position to it. Rev. J. M. Jones. Cardiff, stated that he and Mr. D. Morgan, Canton, had been. on their message in South Splotland. constitut- ing a Welsh Church there, and said that his Church (Pembroke-terrace) had given them the building, which cost about 4;500, free. So the Church, which had about 50 members, started under very favourable circumstances, and he be- lieved that bye and bye, these branches of his Church would be much stronger than his Church itself. The committee which had been appointed to look into the state of the cause in the Vale gave their report, which contained three or four resolu- tions and the following suggestions :-(a) Thafc- Aberthyn, Soar, and Wenvoe should have English service every Sunday evening if possible. Rev. T. Rees (Cefn) stated that the Church at Cae Harries, Dowlais. had given an unanimous call to Rev. T. Maesyddog Francis. Tredegar, to become their pastor.—It was reported to the monthly meeting that a schoolroom worth £ 500 had been opened at Cotdpenmaen for religious purposes, under the supervision of Penuel, Pontypridd, and its energetic pastor, llev. W. Lewis and, in addition to what they have already done. they in- tend again to build a schoolroom at Hopkinstown. -The Committee which was appointed to report as to what course to take with regard to the debt of Dinas and Blaenrhondda recommended to the monthly meeting the following course :—That they should undertake to p iy £ 1,200 of the debt ef Blaenrhondda, and that Lower Rhondda. was ready to undertake to pay £ 500 of the debt of Dinas.— That was confirmed by the monthly meeting, which expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Dis- trict of Lower Rhoudda, for their readiness to undertake to pay £ 500 for Dinas.— It was parsed that a copy of this resolution should he sent to the District of LTpper Rhondda.— Applications for the association of March, 1892, were received. Three place; applipd-narrely, Penuel (Ferndale), Treorky. and Penrhiweeiber. And after a few minutes' discussion it was un- animously decided that Penuel (Ferndale) should have it.—The time of the thanksgiving meet- ings which were decided to be held either on Monday, October 17 th. or Thursday, October 20th, leaving it to the Churches to chose the most convenient day for them. -The Rev. J. M. Jones was appointed to be on the United Committee of the new causes for the for- ward movement.-A letter was then read from the Presbyterian Council asking the monthly meeting to appoint two—a minister and a deacon—to re- present them "on the Council. Also, a letter was read from the secretary of the Foreign Mission, calling the attention of the monthly meeting to the great need of more missionaries. Two were needed at once. at the least. It was remarked that they were sorely needed, especially in the face of the fact that the Roman Catholics had entered into their field. and do their best to undo the work which has been done by the Methodist missionaries. — A resolution was passed acknowledging the receipt of the letter, and the monthly meeting desired most earnestly to press the matter to the consideration of the ministers, and asked the Churches to pray to God to raise and point out missionaries accord- ing to His own heart.-A vote of condolence was unanimously passed amid deep feeling to show their great sympathy with the relatives of those who were killed in the explosion of the Park Slip Colliery, and pressing all the Churches which are able to do anything to send in their subscriptions as soon as possible. Sermons were preached on Wednesday evening by Revs. Abraham Edwards and Thomas Rees, Cefn Thursday, at 10.30 a.m., Revs. William Henry, Pontypridd, and D. Jones, M.A., Brynsadler at 2.30. Revs. W. Morris. Cwm- amman, and W. Lewis. Pontypridd at 7 p.m., Revs. J. M. Jones, Cardiff, and W. James, Aber- dare.

EAST GLAMORGANSHIRE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. A meeting of the local agriculturists and others was held at the Nelson Inn, Llancaiach. on Thurs- day night, presided over by Mr. D. E. Jones, of Llancaiach House, to consider the question of inviting the East Glamorganshire Agricultural Society to hold their annual show at Llancaiach in 1893.—A resolution was moved by Mr. W. Phillips, and seconded by Mr. D. Price, that the society be invited, and that a local committee be formed for the purpose of carrying out the arrangements.- This was agreed to with acclamation.—It was de- cided. on the motion of Mr. T. Jones, seconded by Mr. G. Osborne, that all present should be members of the local committee, and it was agreed to wait on the Executive Committee of the Society at their annual meeting.—After some further pre- liminaries had been, arranged, the meeting was brought to a close with a vote of thanks to the chairman.

TEACHING MANSERS IN BOARD SCHOOLS. The Education Department has lately issued a, series of instructions relating to the award of the State grant for discipline and organisation," and intimates that henceforth the scholars will be ex- pected at the examination to show a fitting respect for the teachers, a real interest in their work, and a well-ordered obedience to the rules of the schools which they attend. In our opinion, nothing could be so timely or judicious. We are apt to overlook, in these days of- com- petitive examinations, the full meaning of Education." The Latin poet who taught that the object of education was not only to develop intellectual activity and store the mind with useful knowledge, but also to soften the manners and correct the innate bru- tality of human nature, had a truer perception of its meaning than many who aspire to be called educationalists in the present day. A man may be an intensely learned man, and still remain a boor and an illiterate man may be as well-mannered as the highest in the land. It is not the convention- alities of society that we wish to see taught in our schools but the thought for others, the unselfish- ness, and the respect for duly constituted authority which mark the gentleman in every course of life.
