0 LANAU AERON A'R CYLCHOEDD. (GAN DAFYDD.) Gan fod cynnifer o blant Dyffryn Aeron ar wasgar yn y Brif-ddinas, diau mai nid anny- ddorol ganddynt yn awr ac eilwaith fydd der- byn byr nodion gan Dafydd," un o hen frodorion y Dyffryn, er gwybod pa fodd y mae pethau yn dyfod ymlaen gartref. Claddedig'aethMrs. Davies, Cilcenin.—Cyd- ymdeimlir yn ddwys a'r Parch. Cadfwlch Davies, gweinidog Annibynol Cilcenin, yn ei brofedigaeth chwerw ar ol colli ei briod yr hon a gyflawnodd hunanladdiad boreu dydd Gwener, i7egcyfisol. Cymerodd yr angladd le dydd Mawrth canlynol. Claddwyd yn Neuaddlwyd. Pregethwyd gan yr Hybarch William Evans. Cymerwyd rhan yn y gwas- anaeth gan y Parchn. Gwilym Evans, Aber- aeron Griffiths, Maenygroes; Evans, Llan- bedr; Owen, Ceinewydd; Davies, Ty'n-y- gwndwn. Gwelsom hefyd yn bresenol y Parchn. Thomas, Llanon; Thickens (M.C.), Aberaeron Rees (W.), Aberaeron, &c. Yr oedd y dorf oedd wedi ymgasglu i'r gladded- igaeth yn profi fod y wlad yn cydwylo a Mr. Davies yn ei drallod blin. Drwg iawn genym fod merch mor brydweddol ac anwyl a Mrs. Davies wedi diweddu ei hoes fer (25 mlwydd oed) a'i dwylaw ei hun. Caffed Mr. Davies bob nerth i ddal yr ystorm. Cor Undebol.-Mae Dyffryn Aeron tua chymydogaeth Ystrad yn ferw gwyllt yr wyth- nos hon yn parotoi i ffurfio cor ar gyfer Eis- teddfod Llangeitho yn Awst. Cyferfydd y cdr am y tro cyntaf nos Wener nesaf. Mae cantorion glanau Aeron wedi bod yn enwog flynyddoedd yn ol, ond ar ol colli y fuddugol- iaeth yn Eisteddfod y Borth crogwyd y telynau ar yr helyg hyd yr wythnos hon. Gobeithio y daw y tanau i hwyl eto. Yr arweinydd ydyw Thomas Davies, stonecutter. Pob llwydd niedd Dafydd. Cynghorau Plwyfol.-Ffurfiwyd cynghorau plwyfol gwahanol blwyfi Dyffryn Aeron eleni heb frwydrau etholiadol. Diweddwyd y cyfan yn y cyfarfodydd plwyfol. Mae Dyffryn Aeron wedi bod yn enwog am ei etholiadau, rhai o honynt wedi bod yn gynhyrfus a bygyth- 101 iawn. Mae gwawr y mil blynyddoedd wedi dechreu tori eleni gobeithio.

A GLOOMY OUTLOOK." The whole machinery of European Dip- lomacy has been abruptly set in motion by the Egyptian expedition. The whirlwind of hos- tility suddenly created in some foreign countries is such as to foreshadow some gloomy prospect in the future. Many critics are now of opinion that some members of the Govern- ment begin to perceive the sad outlook of the blundering policy, upon which they have embarked. The stirring speeches made by several prominent Unionists betray the discord prevalent in the Government ranks on this British march into the Soudan. THE DESERT FISHING EXPEDITION. The great debate on Friday did not unhappily give any consolation to those who still trusted that there were, besides those insignificant telegrams, some urgent reasons which had honestly compelled the Government to adopt this aggressive and risky policy. In spite of his natural flippancy and cunning, Mr Cham- berlain, in his plausible reply to Mr John Morley, failed to justify straightforwardly the present forward movement in the Soudan. In his speech he made the laughably remark that this mai ch was only a fishing expedition. In handling this complicate question, it was apparent to almost any observer in the House that Mr. John Morley, by virtue of the con- sistency of his convictions, showed to better advantage than Mr. Chamberlain. THE GHOST OF PROTECTION. On Monday the Diseases ot Animals Bill gave a golden opportunity to all the Protec- tionists of the present Government. The obje'.t of this measure is practically to prohibit the importation of any live cattle into this country. Its advocates fallaciously think that this revived form of protection would slightly benefit agricultural depression. Now-a-days many become Protectionists in order to post- pone the urgent demand for land reforms, which only will be capable of accomplishing any lasting benefits for the welfare of the majority of the people. The alleged advan- tage of this proposal at its best would only slightly benefit the breeder at the expense of the feeder. Besides, it would be bound to increase the price of meat, and would thus injuriously affect all the industrial classes of our country. LONDON WATER QUESTION. The discussion on the London Water Ques- tion on Tuesday clearly exhibited the family discord that exists between the Conservative Party and the London County Council. Mr. Stuart strongly advocated that all the present water companies should be transferred to a public representative body like the County Council. This necessary step, however, must come to pass sooner or later. No party will continue powerful enough to reject this pro- posal. which was loudly supported by many Unionists at the last General Election. The present capricious water companies have proved themselves very inefficient to cope with the growing demands of London. Having been, perhaps, engaged too long in discussing such a cold and tasteless subject as water, our depressed legislators disbanded at the early hour of 9 o'clock. PURE BEER? On Wednesday the honourable members resolved to select for a change a coloured liquid for their debate. Some of them have quite suddenly found out that the popular beer is often adulterated before it comes from the brewery. The most curious feature in con- nection with this measure is the fact that many of our legislators would not believe the trULh of this statement, if it were kindly given them by their friends that belong to the Temperance Party.
