TITHE COLLECTION IN CAR- DIGANSHIRE. DISTRAINTS IN LLANLLWCHAIARN. Last Friday distraints were levied in the parish of Llanllwchaiarn, between New Quay and Aberayron, for the recovery of tithes claimed by the Rev David Griffiths, rector of the parish. There were two years of arrears due, but the distraints were levied for one and a half year's tithes due up to the 1st Octo- ber last. Mr Hugh Hughes, Aberystwyth, acted professionally on behalf of the Rector, and Mr David Owen, formerly of Tregaron, levied the distresses. The Chief Constable, Mr Howell Evans, and Mr Hughes left Aberystwyth on Thursday evening for Aberayron and between six and seven on the following morning proceeded to the scene of action in company with the bailiff, Mr Owen. The early morning was wet, thick misty rain blowing in from the sea. Before midday, however, the rain and mist cleared away, the sun came out bright and warm, and the remainder of the day was pleasant for out-door operations. After going through Henfenyw, a spot hallowed by the once residence of St David, the patron saint of Wales, the party proceeded to Llanarth and thence to Synod Inn where four ways meet. Before leaving Aberayron, Councillor J. M. Howell and Mr Dan James, solicitor, joined the party, and at Synod Inn it was augmented by P.C. Davies, Councillors Morgan Evans, Oakford, J. W. Timothy and J 0 Davies, the Rev W. Griffiths (I), Maenygroes, and Mr Thomas Jones, tailor, New Quay. At Quarter Sessions there was a kind of insinuation that the Chief Constable had not invited the magistrates of the union to accompany the expedition into Penbryn and his reply was that, knowing the distance at which they lived, he had not invited them to attend. On this occasion he had care- fully invited all the magistrates in the union aud-not one attended. After visiting the first place, Mr Jones, Nautpele, Mr Samuel Evans, Penrhiwpistyll, guardian for the parish, Mr Morris, Drefach, and others joined the party. It was subsequently ascertained that Mr Thomas Jones of New Quay had attended in the cap- acity of guide to the bailiff to point out the locality of the farms to be visited. This office had hitherto been discharged by the police officer residing in the district, but has lately been discontinued as not coming within the duty of an officer in the preservation of the peace. Mr Jones's the brother of a former student of Aber- ystwyth College, now a missionary with a kindred race in Brittany. Mr Jones himself was formerly a member of the Calvinistic Methodists but a short time ago went over to the Church where, possessing an excellent musical kuowledge, he renders valuable service in leading the singing. At the request of the Rector and out of the great respect he bore him, on Friday he also acted as leader of the bailiff in the tithe expedition, but seemed to have found it less pleasant than leading a party of singers—even with the traditional cythraul canu included-for before he had been half an hour on the ground he admitted that he would not have under- taken the job for a five pound note and, before the sun had touched the meridian, he declared that wild hori-ea would not bring him to the spot on the following day. He absorbed the entire attention of the small crowd that assembled and the bailiff had an eaqy time of it. The tirst place on the programme of the day's visits was Brynsodyn, the re i ieuce of Mrs Owens, from whom JE1 Is 8d was claimed. Turning out of the New Quay road near Brownhill, a cut was made across a wild and rudely cultivated country to Erynscdyn where a dresser with ware, a clcck aud part of a rick of hay were seized without incident. At Pennant, also, there was no incident of iuterest. Two carti and a clock having been seized to recover 19s Id from Mr Jenkin Thomas, Pennant, a run was made across country tc Penrallt-wen for 17s 10J from Mrs Jones, a widow. In consequence of the puide having been but recently insructed, he had not been able to become thoroughly efficient iu the geography of the district. He missed the right turning when going from the farm, led the party over two or three fields and eventually landed them in a potato patch where the path came to a ter- mination. He then harked back to Pennant, eventually got on the right scent, aud landed the bailiff in the vicinity of Penrallt-wen. There the party were met by Captain Jones of Brownhill, who said that Mrs Jones was ill and that he would pay, less the costs, in order that she should not be disturbed. These terms being agreed upon the money was paid and the receipt given. Up to the present there had been no noise and no crowd. The blowing of a horn had been heard in the distance, but it was like a Will o'the Wisp—now here now there-and seemed a fitting accompaniment to the rambling of the party under the leadership of their guide. On getting to the end of the lane, however, the horn put in a visible appearance and with it about a dozen women and girls. These at once turned the full force of their banter on to the guide who was advised to go home and mend his breeches and so on, all of which he appeared to take in a calm and philoso- phical spirit, as he puffed his pipe alongside the bailiff who on this occasion did not seem to lilve any attrac- tion for the ladies. Afewpans were beaten, but the noise was neither great nor continuous, and the horn did not rest on the shoulders of the bailiff, or his guide, or his legal adviser or anything that was his. Llanlwyd was toe next place visited, and the amount here claimed from Mr David Jones was 10s 9J. Mr David Jones was not much in evidence himsell, but his better half seemed able to transact business in his absence. She said she did not see the force of paying money and getting no return for it, but eventually handed over the cash, less 23 IB, the cost of the dis- tress warrant. Seeing a stranger present she handed him a skein of thread saying it might be useful to him; bit when t was explained to her that the stranger was a reporter and not a tailor she said Beggio 'ch pardwn, syr," and was profuse in her apologies. In the mean- time, the guide was being subjected to chaff and banter in another part of the yard. The party made the next move across country to Doluaut, where, in default of the payment of 18a 3d by Mrs Rachael Owens, a rick of hay was seized. Tynant lay a short distance off. There Mr Thomas Evans owed JC1 10s 6d. He produced the money and, turn- ing to the Rev Mr Griffiths, begged him to see that the receipt was given in proper form. Oh," said Mr Hughes, you wili get the receipt all: right, never fear," to which the farmer retorted by saying, What, do you think that the devil never gets into a lawyer?" At Penralltgoch, the residence of Mr John Jones, where El 14s Od was claimed, payment being refused, a rick of hay and part of a rick were seized. Mr John Morris, Drefach, owed £5 15s 9d, the largest amount claimed during the day. His farm was approached by a road running for a short distance out of the ordinary road. On either side of the approach were high banks crowned with thorns and trees and near the entrance to the farm was the gable end of a house. The yard was fenced off from the road by a gate. On either side of the gate posts were high walls and the gate had not only been locked and barred, but the top built up high with thorns so that it was im- possible to get over it, On the side wails also, a man was placed, one carrying a walking stick and the other a massive ash stick about four feet long and an inch in diameter. When the bailiff arrived, a young man led a fine Welsh bull by a ring in its nostrils across the inner side of the gate and a young woman came forward and said Walk In, gentlemen, if you please." Instead of walking in, however, the bailiff walked off without the tithe and without distraining. Judging from past experiences, he had brought but eight war- rants with him, but he had disposed of them and the day was yet young. It was, therefore, resolved to make a run for Cross Inn and write out more warrants, Mr Hughes having blank copies in the recesses of his bag. On going from Drefach Mr Morgan Evans and Mr J. O. Davies narrowly escaped serious injury. They were riding together through a narrow lane when the cart was nearly upset by a projecting bank. Mr Evans and Mr Jones fell out and if the horse had bolted they would have been crushed against the hedge and run over. The horse, however, remained quiet, and the police officer and others held it while Mr Evans and Mr Jones picked themselves up little the worse for the accident beyond a few scratches and a little shak- ing. A halt was made at Cross Inn for refreshments and, a couple of warrants having been made out, a brief run I Was made for Pantygwair, the resMence ef Mr Evan James. The guide appeared to be going past the entrance, but a neighbouring farmer pointed out the gate leading to the farm. The crowd, which had now got up to about thirty or forty, turned their attention to ijim and when the gate was opened and he was standing behind it, one or two pushed the gate against him. On returning also, the farmer opened the gate, whereupon one sarcastically observed. You would die and your name would be forgotten were it not that you opened that gate to-day." At the entrance to the farm, the titho-jjayi-r's wife disputed entrance and held on to the gate which had been tied up with a piece of rope. The bailiff g"c over the gate and distrained upon a rick of new hay and part of a rick of old hay. The party then walked b-ick to Cross Inn and along in the direction of Cefagwyddel for a visit to Fforch- cwm, the ltsiiie.ice of Mr David Williams. Both approaches were secured by locks. The bailiff got over one of the gates, but finding nothing but hay lying about the ground he returned to the road and the party finally ran back again to Aberayron, taking the guide with them as far as Llanarth, whence he made the best of his way home to New Quay. On Saturday, Mr Owen, accompanied by the Chief Constable, visited the following farms for the purpose of allowing the bailiff to make distraints. At Cefn- wyddel, Nantpele, Penrhyn. Brynllys, Soar, Perthy- gwenin, Penrhiwpistyll, and Troedyrhiw the entrances were secured and no distraint could be effected. At Tynrhos and a neighbouring farm a water wheel and other effects were seized, and at Waunfach nothing was found on which to distrain. There was a small crowd of spectators, but no disturbance of any kind.

THE WELSH MEMBERS AND THE RAILWAY RATES BIL.L. In the House of Commons, on Friday, on the order for the consideration of the London and North Western Railway Company (Rates and Charges) Provision Order Bill on Clause 2, Mr Lloyd George moved an amendment to postpone the operation of the Hill from the passing of the Act to January 1st, LSI«. The hon. member appealed to the President of the Board of Trade to say what course he would adopt with refer- ence to certain amendments on the paper. The object of one was to except Welsh railways from the scale tor Roods in Class A, of another to except Welsh railways from Class B, and of a third to except certain Welsh railways from the provisions as to terminal charges. The present amendment he moved because it was impossible for traders to appear be- fore the Railway Commission and get the reductions within the limited time allowed. Mr Atkinson seconded the amendment. Sir M Hicks-Beach said if the Bill was to become law the sooner the better. He would make one concession with re- gard to Welsh railways, and exempt them from table B. but whether he would extend the exemption to Class A he could not say until the amendment was moved. Mr T. E. Ellis urged the extension of the concession to Class A. One of the main objects or the Bill was to protect traders in districts where there was little competition, which was the case in certain parts in Wales, where, unless the conces- sion were made, high rates would he stereotyped. The desire to fix maximum rates had been fully satisfied in almost every clause, but very little had been done to bring down charges in non-competitive districts. Sir M. Hicks-Beach said he was bound by the decision of the Select Committee, and he could not promise further con- cessions unless the necessity for them was established in the course of discussion. Mr Lloyd George withdrew his amendment; but Mr Atkin- son objecting, the amendment was negatived. Mr Lloyd George moved to leave out section 3 dealing with terminal station charges. Mr Hanbury said that he understood the main objection of the hon. member to be to the conveyance rates on certain Welsh lines. If that were so the proper time for discussing them wculd be when the part of the Bill dealing with those lines was reached. Mr Thomas Ellis said that he and his hon. friend objected to the rates in Class A, and also objected to the terminal station charges. If a concession were made in regard to the rates they would abandon their opposition to the terminal charges. The House having been cleared for a division the amend- ment was negatived. On the motion of Mr Lloyd George a number of amend- ments were agreed to exempting certain sections of Welsh railways from class B. Mr l'ritchard Morgan also moved the insertion of lime in bulk and loam after the words "limestone in bulk," but Sir M Hicks Beach objecting that the alterations of the classifications would be an endless task, the amendment was negatived. An amendment by Mr Pritchard Morgan in favour of the inclusion of precious and other ores in the same classification as night soil was negatived, and finally the Bill was read a third time and cHrrier!. On the Great Western Railway Bill, Sir M. Hicks- Beach made a concession to Sir H. H. Vivian in regard to South Wales tratlic for lower rates in any years in which the Great Western dividend reached six per cent. Mr T. E. Ellis moved to insert after "Worcester" (18) railways governed by the Yale of Llangollen Act, 1859, and the Llangollen and Corwen Act, 1860; (1!)) railways governed by the Corwen and Bala, and Bala and Dolgelley Acts, 1S02; (20) railways governed by the Bala and Festiniog Act, 1873." He said th;<t these railways fed collieries in North Wales. Sir Al. Hicks-Beach said that he had not inquired whether these railways were in the same district and position as the lines which were provided for in the North Western Bill. He wonld, however, accept the amendment provisionally. The amendment was then agreed to. The Bill was read a third time and passed.

LLANYBYTHER. DEATH OF INIR REES EVANs.-We regret to have to an- nounce the death of Mr K. Evans, A.P.S., second son of Mr Daniel Evans, Dolau-uchaf, and brother of Mr E. Evans, chemist, of Ammanford, at the early age of twenty-four years. Mr Evans served his apprenticeship with Mr T. Hughes, chemist, Llandilo, Carmarthenshire, where he was well-known and highly respected. He afterwards served at the retail shop of Mr Gwilym Evans, at Llanelly -and for tome time travelled for the Quinine Bitters Co. Thence he proceeded to London. He was engaged for some time at King's Road, Chelsea, and studied for the minor examina- tion which he successfully passed. Some time last year he suffered from an attack of influenza, which left him in a weakened state, although he rallied sufficiently to proceed with his studies, qualifying ItS A.P.S. in January last. Since I then there have been evident signs that his health was fail- ing, and he gradually became weaker, though up to within a fortnight of his death he had not been confined to his bed. He bore up bravely throughout a trying illness, and peacefully passed away on Tuesday of last week. On Friday, the 24th a large number of friends assembled together to pay the last tribute of respect to the deceased. The funeral took place in the new burial ground at Aberduar, the officiating ministers being the Revs Alderman J. Davies, Alltyplaca, Mr James, pastor, and the Rev Parry Griffith, vicar. The coffin, the handiwork of an old friend of thefanllly,wa:3 of polished oak, with massive brass mountings. Besides those already men- tioned Ithere were also present the Rev Professor Evans, formerly of Carmarthen, and the Rev T. E. Jones, curate of Cardigan, while wreaths were sent by Mrs Davies-Evans of Higbmead, Mrs Dr Evans, Llansawel, 31 re Steer, Swansea (aunt of the deceased), 3Irs Davies, chemist, Llanybyther, and Mr Jones, chemist, Llanybyther. 31ucfa, sympathy is felt for the parents, and brothers and sisters of the deceased in their sad bereavement.

CARDIGAJN. SALMON FISHING.-Salmon fishing with Seine nets on Cardigan bar during the pabt week has again been exceptionally good. On Monday evening last the catch was so heavy that considerable difficulty was experienced in securing the net. The season, however, only makes up for two miserable previous ones. INQUEST.—On Friday last at the Rose and Crown Inn, St. Dogmell's, an inquest was held before Ivor Evans, Esq.. on the body of David John Hughes, the infant son of Thomas Hughes, a shop assistant, resid- ing at Tanybwnfil, St. Dogmell's. The child's mother, Hannah Hughes, gave evidence as follows On the 13th July, the deceased, who wa two years and four months old, was standing on the settle in the kitchen. I saw him fall and knock the back of his head, but he was not insensible. He became very unwell. I immediately took him to the doctor. The doctor did not see him afterwards, but I got medicine from him. At about five o'clock on the morning of the 22nd July I noticed he was getting worse, and that he was in convulsions. I was not present when he died. On the day he fell I noticed there was a discharge from his ear, which continued for a day and night, and the night before he died.—Mary James, of the Lodge, Pantsaeson, said deceased was her grandchild. She saw him after he was hurt. He died in her arms about one o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday, the 22nd. He was in convulsions when he died. He died whilst io one of the fits. His arms and limbs were rigid whilst in the fits. Saw him vomit on Thurs- day, the 14th July, and that day only.—Charles Griffith Joues, a medical practitioner, practising at Cardigan, said: I remember deceased being brought to me on the 13th July. I found him very pale and bleeding slightly from the right ear. There was no bruise or external mark on the head. I examined him, and it seemed to me there was a slight concussion of the brain. I directed the mother as to the treat- ment of the child. I aho prescribed for him. I have viewed the body to-day, and have heard the evidence given, and I consider that I can with reasonable cer- tainty arrive as to the cause of death, which was brought about through concussion of the brain and convulsions.—The jury gave a verdict accordingly. COUNTY COURT, THURSDAY, 23RD J uLY.-Before Deputy Judge Mr Cecil Beresford. Condolence.—The Deputy Judge, addressing Mr Daniel, solicitor, said, that before proceeding with business, he had been requested by the Judge to express his deep regret at the death of Air Mitchell, and the los the Court had sustained. The letter ran thus I much regret that my state of health pre- vents my being present at Cardigan to-morrow (Thursday), so that I may pay a last tribute to the memory of the worthy man who has passed away. During the fifteen years I have presided as judge, I have had frequent opportunities of guaging the sterling qualities possessed by Mr Mitchell. As a sound lawyer, he had my best opinion as an advocate, he gained my esteem for the honourable way in which he conducted his cases. The County Court of Cardigan has sustained an irreparable loss, and I trust you will convey my deep regret and sympathy to the family in their bereavement." The Deputy Judge endorsed the remarks, and Mr Daniel thanked his Honour for such kind expressions, and prom'sed to convey them to the. family.—The business was then proceeded with. Proceedings Under the New Tithe, Act.-The Rev Thomas Parry, rector of Cilgerran, sued Messrs John Evans and Griffith Evans, owners of the farm of Tyhen, for f8 4s., half-year's tithes due 1st April last. Mr H. R. Daniel appeared for plaintiff, and Mr Ivor Evans, of the firm of Asa and Ivor Evans and Stephens, for the defendant.—For the defence, notice to defend had been given, and 1:6 3s. 3d. was claimed to have been paid for poor rates due from plaintiff on his tithe rent-charge.—Mr Daniel contended that as the Act came into operation on the 26th March, and the tithe was not due until the 1st of April, that pay- ment was not legal.—Mr Evans argued that the Tithe Act was retrospective, but his Honour differed.— Judgment for plaintiff, order to be suspended for twenty-one days in order to give notice of appeal. A receiver was also appointed in the meantime.

LONDON. WEDDING.—On Saturday July 18th, at Castle street Welsh Baptist Chapel, London,, W., by the Rev R. Ellis Williams, the pastor Mr Lewis Lewis, second son of Mr Evan Lewis, Rhiwbwys Mill, Llan- rhystyd, was married to Miss Elizabeth Morgan, eldest daughter of Mr William Morgan, Penrhyncoch, near Aberystwyth. When the ceremony was over, Mr Williams, on behalf the church, presented the young couple with a handsome large family Bible.

TOWYN, THE PIG QUESTION.—A correspondent wants to know if any member of the Local Board keeps pigs within a few feet of his dwelling house ? APPOINTMENT OF PROFESSOR ROBERTS.—The news of the appointment of Professor Roberts, to the Prin- cipalship of the University College of Wales, which reached here on the evening of Friday, the 24th of this month gave universal satisfaction. The new Principal commenced his distinguished scholastic career at the Towyn Academy, the institution which was so success- fully conducted by Mr Edwin Jones for many years, and at which many of the leading Welshmen of the present day received their preliminary education. Principal Roberts has never forgotten Towyn; indeed it is his home and he spends a considerable part of his holidays with his parents at Towyn every year, and nothing in the world appears to give him more pleasure than to help every movement having a tendency to benefit Towyn. Towyn rejoices exceedingly at his brilliant successes. HARVEST.—The hay harvest is being proceeded with and in spite of the variable weather a great quantity of hay in good condition has been secured. One of the most noticeable features in connection withjthis year's harvest is the general adoption of mowing machines and hay making impliments. Twenty years or so ago these machines were as novel and rare as they are familar and general nowadays. NEW CONGREGATIONAL CHAPEL.—The contract to build this has been let to Mr JohniAdains, Barmouth. There were three tenders Messrs Jones Hughes and Edwards, Towyn, for £ 1,592; JAIR Morris James, Towyn, for £1,541; Mr John Adams, Barmouth, 91,454. The tenders were submitted to and the vote of all the members taken on Sunday evening when a large majority declared in favour of the lowest tender. The plans of the new chapel with its commodious and well arranged schoolrooms and vestryrootns are very much admired. When erected this chapel will be an ornament to High-street and by far the handsomest place of worship in the town. This church is in need of anew tabernacle and the gallant efforts made to secure one are worthy of admiration and support. ESPLANADE.—Visitors and others complain of the annoyance caused by bicyclists and similar contrivances which are used without let or hindrance on the pro. menade. Old people and invalids are not only annoyed, but frightened. Are there no regulations governing the uses to: be made of this fine parade. The management and maintenance of the place are in the hands of Mr J. Corbett, M.P., for some years, and it would be well ifathose young people who make a practice of throwing stones from the beach to the esplanade and of gathering together in groups and yelling like mad Indians were put under some control or restraint.

The railway accident near Paris proved to be of a most serious character. On Sunday evening a train ran into one that was standing in the station of St Mande, near Vincennes. The last three carriages of the station- ary train were crushed to pieces, and then caught fire. Forty-three persons were killed, of whom the bodies of twelve were removed from the debris so charred as to be unrecognisable, and one hundred and four persons were injured. Two stories are current as the cause of the disaster. One is that some boys pulled the wires so as to substitute for the danger signal an intimation that the line was clear and the other, that the brakes of the latter portion of the second train had been tampered with, and would not work, A LEADING LONDON TEA BROKER writes I have tasted Blue Cross Pekoe Souchong against a golden tip tea which recently sold at almost its own weight in gold, and ha,, e no hesitation in stating that for rink- ing purposes, I consider Blue Cross' Pekoed Souchong better tea."
