--= LOCAL WELSH WORTHIES. e live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not brealhs." Bailey. Robert Owen, the great Socialist, was born at Newtown, May 14TH. 1771. It appears that Robert was a weakly and TENDER cnild. but a great and ardent reader of every book that he could manage to lay hold vf. It is actually RELATED that bdure he was eight years of age, whilst reading in different books about the great animosity which prevailed *MON«KT different denominations towards each other, he CAME'"TO the conclusion that there m ist be a moral evil Strongly attached to all their roots. When Owen was nine Yeals old he was put an apprentice to a tradesman. He REMOVED afterwards to London, then to Stamford, in Lin- colnshire, back to London, and again to Manchester, and THIS before he was eighteen years UF age. He remained in T^E latter place for many years in a shop, afterwards as a MANUFACTURER of cotton engines. When he was about twenty he was manager of a large cotton factory, where be RECEIVED a salary of JE300 a year, which was soon augmented TO JE500. He left his situation and joined in partnership With TWO or three others, and they soon erected a large mill FOR themselves, which proved afterwards to be very success- I^D- In 1799 this company bought the cotton mills of Mr ■"ale, of Lanark, in Scotland, and in September in the same YEAR, Robert Owen was married to one of Mr Dale's DAUGHTERS he at the time having saved about £ 3,000. He afterwirri's left Manchester to undertake the management °F the mills at Lanark. Here he established a social com- TTUNL ND erected a village for his workmen close to his *orks md governed their affairs according to his own lotion's of government—A mixture of republicanism and PatriarchEverything went on successfully for Everythi years, but when the United States raised a war income °n their cotton the manufacturers in the United Kingdom DISCM.-S«{ their workmen but Kobert Owen adopted quite a different scheme. He kept all his hands, which num- bered about 500 families, for four months, to do nothing but keep the machinery clean, which cost him and his part- ners £ 7,000. In 1813 he published his first pamphlet, "Earing the title New View of Society." the publication °f Which brought him into the notice of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Mr Wilberforce, Lord Liverpool, and many the aristocracy and learned persons in the KL?S' HE took great interest and a foremost part I WHICH Sir Robert Peel brought into operation. examined several times before the Committees of the of Commons, and the plain way in which he ex- posed the crueltv and oppression which the factory oper.v tive^Skred goiht upon his head the animosity and VENGEANCE of the great manufacturers. He was also of great service in establishing several charitable institutions, allcl, no doubt, if he had kept his theological opinions out sigh:, he would be justly considered by all parties one °f the greatest reformers and benefactors of his age. According to one author, When the sun of prosperity SNIILED favourably upon his circumstances, the whole unbe- |JEF and sceptism of his heart broke out in such an abun- dance of fruit as threatened to poison the whole atmo- sphere of society." Put, after all, to use one of Kings- ley s phrases on another subject, Owen "had terrible teeth, and used them, too. A man would have thought twice ere he snaot at him living, and, therefore, it seems somewhat a cowardly trick to B^R'K securely at his ghost." However, he lost a large amount of influence in England, after pro- claiming 1817, at a public meeting in London, before many thousands that reliGION WAS INJURIOUS to man, and that, if it was necessary, he would suffer martyrdom for his principles. Owen soon afterwards left England for France, and received A warm reception from Lou's Phil- lipe, Cuvier, Oberhn ^TAC^ He was considered the Lion oi PANS FOR about six weeks and he had quite as hearty a reception in OTHER places on the con- tinent of Europe. He was universally placed by the French somewhere between Voltaire and Mirabeau. According M Carlyle, the fame of the latter is gone forth to all lands When the masses in England, as a body, had deserted him, and looked onhimwith scorn or pity, he bad a warm patron in the person of the Duke of Xent, father tp our present Queen. His Royal Highness wrote about thirty letters to Owen. He took much interest in his scheme at Lanark, and acted as chairman to the committee there until he died in 1819. Owen lost his chief supporter in England when the Duke died. Until 1822 Ireland had, somehow or other, escaped his notice, but in that year he made his appearance in Dublin and examined the cottages of working men, and told the Irishman in his own metropolis how to regenerate his countrv In 1825 H* purchased RF0,000 acres of land in Illinois' America, with the intention of establishing a social communion there similar to the one M Scotland. In visitin Washington in that year he delivered a lecture before the House of Representatives explaining hw different SCHEMES but the establishment at Illinois did not prove took part in one of the meetings of the Social Science Con gress. A few months before his death he rema t A friend whilst going to the stage coach at Shrewsb Y he was taking his bones to the place where he ha iaa (in from." He died at Newtown, November 17th, 1858, iifhis eighty-sixth year. Whatever are the opinions held about the genius and character OF this remarkable man, there cannot be a doubt that he possessed excellent qualities AS a citizen and patriot. His political principles, which WE-E considered wild and dangereusin his early days, are now proclaimed on the very housetops by the leading politicians 1ll our large cities and towns. If he did not believe in the same dogmas as most people regarding religion, why in the NAME of common sense should that be a bar in preventing NIS admirers from erecting a monument to his memory in a suitable place in his dear old native town? Robert Owen WAS an exemplification of the truth of Tennyson's words- "Not once or twice, in our rough Island story, The path of duty was the way to glory." Llansilin. HENRY ROWLANDS.

NORTH hiiilOPrfEIRE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The annual exhibition of this society was held on 1 September 5th. at Market Drayton, and, the weather e 0 fine during the greater portion of the day, was we tended, thiiugh scarcely waa smaH, but the ytar. The show of che s fir8t jze for cheese quality of both w*as ^cellent.^ ched (ar make_ Hunting was awarded to a tuie,'peavera„e of former years, and the horses were be.ow call for 9pecial notice was the only whinh took the first prize. The agricultural brown g g more noteworthy as a c'ass, and probablv ^re LTer excelkd at any meeting of this society!^ Ther'e was an entire horse which carried off one of the extra prizes which was greatly admired. The cattle made, for a district society, a capital show. The Rev. Walter Sneyd's bull, to which was awarded the first prize in its class, is a magnificent animal, but having taken a first prize at the Royal Agricultural Society's meeting at Wolverhampton, it is disqualified from receiving the prize awarded at this show. Mr Bourne consequently takes the first prize and Mr Morrey the second. Mr Bourne's bull is a fine animal, and well deserves the distinction. If he has a defect at all it is a slight falling off at the loins. In the class of young bulls the first priz was awarded to a nice little beast, and the second to one of the very few Herefords m the show. The latter was in fine form, and thoroughly well bred. The prize animal in the next class, that of cow of any age," was areally splendid specimen of a Short- horn. That which received the second prize was also good in hair and colour, but showed a little falling off in the hind quarters. The heifers calved in 1871 were not so striking, although the class included a fair proportion of useful animals. The pair of yearling heifers which took Hie first prize in their class were remarkably fine they were Sid to be sisters, and had both been calved within the vear The second prize animal in this class was not so fine but was nevertheless noted as a very useful growing rjihe ghow of sheep was not large, for which the mid-harvest time may afford an explanation. The fame of the Shropshire breed was well maintained in its own county, especially by the fine old ram which carried off Mr Cotes's silver cup and the society's first prize. The pigs were held by competent judges to be first-rate, especially those of the Berkshire breed, which won nearly all the prizes. The quality of the animals may be inferred from the fact that a pig which on former occasions had received six first prizes, was at this meeting only highly commended. There was not a lar^e or particularly interesting show of implements. In the poultry department game fowls were hardly so good as on former occasions, and the number of entries was small. The Dorkings were disappointing, but Cochins of any colour were a superior class, but mostly, as might be expected At this season of the year, considerably out of feather. A very fine pen of the partridge-feathered kind took the first prize, and a pen of white the second. The Hamburgs did not cail for special remark. In Bantams, the first prize went to red-pile gAMe and the second to black-red brth were very good. The competition in the any other distmct variety" class was very spirited. The first prize went to a fine pen of Malays, and the second to Creve v. oeurs. In this ciass there were also some good Houdans and white Leghorns. All kinds of ducks were put into one ciass. Whistling ducks took the first prize, and Aylesbury the second. The geese were unquestionably fine, and a pen of the Toulouse variety, of great size and in excellent feather, were the winners of the first prize, while the second went to a pen of Empdens. The turkeys. again, were first rate, and here were also some very good early poults. In the selling class dark Brahmas (chickens) took the first, and silver-pencilled Hamburgs the second. The department of dogs was probably up to the average of former sh-ws. The greyhounds were particularly good, and the first prize dog is full of promise. The setter which carried off the first prize in its class was of the pure Lave- rack breed. In pointers the high quality of the premier animal was indisputable, but hard work had reduced him from the standard of the show bench to that of the stubble field. The retrievers were a fair class for a country show. The Cocker spaniels were a ftir iot, and those of any other class included one of Mr Bullock's famous prize winners. The class of keepers' night dogs was a novelty. Bull ter- riers made a fine show, but the class of fox terriers wa, the most numerous of all, and that which the jadges the most trouble. The second-prize bitch was disqualified on account of its ears having been cut. The sheep dogs were mostly a cross between the drover's dog and the sheepdog, and the animal which obtained the first prize last year was again successful. There were only four horses entered for the leaping competition, which, on account of the fluiall number of entries, was less interesting than usual. For the first time prizes were offered for wool. Mr John Smith, woolstapler, of Shrewsbury, was the donor, and there were seven entries. Five fleeces were shown by each exhibitor. The judges considered that the whole of the exhibits in this department were excellent for weight, quality, .and soundness," and they especially approved the fleeces of Sir John Chetwo le, which gained the first p<ize. The horti- cultural produce made a very pretty little show. The following were amongst the prize takers :— CHEESE.—Best cheese, Mr J. Hentiey, O.d Springs Farm, Market Drayton second best, Mr E.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.-For the cure of burns, scalds, wounds, and ulcers, this justly celebrated ointment stands unrivalled. Its balsamic virtues, imme- diately on application, lull the pain and smarting, pro- tect exposed n. rVtS from the air, endue the vessels with the vigour NECESSARY to heal the sore, and confer on the blood a purity which permits it only to lay down healthy flesh in p]ace of that which has become deceased. H< lloway's PILLS simultaneously taken, must assist the ointment's purifying and soothing power. Together these medicines ACT like a charm no invalid, after a fair trial, has found them fail to relieve his pain, or completely cure his disease. The combined beneficial action of the ointment and pills, in all disorders, is teo irresistible to be withstood.

THE NEW LAW ON SALMON FISHERIES. On Monday, September 1st, the Act passed in the recent session (36 and 37 Victoria, c. 71) to amend the law relating to salmon fisheries in England and Wales came into opera- tion, and is to be construed together with the statute of 1861. There are sixty-five section, and three schedules, consisting of preliminary, defiiaitions, finery ,DIGG* strictions as to certain modes and times of takii g selling FI,h, licences, constitution of I^OAPLSOFCON^RVATORS, powers of water bailiffs, bye-laws, wem and gratings PREVE"^|E^T^E"FGSTITE is empowered after proceedings. district, and he has power to alter notice to alter any QZIR<, ANnointed.

PARTRIDGE SHOOTING. The weather was calm and fine on Monday in Norfolk, and favourable upon the whole for partridge shooting. Numerous shooting parties went out, and some tolerable baps were ma ie. In the West OF England the day opened rather inaus},iciously. The weather HAD been s.ormy for several days, and the ground WAJ MUM, the fallows sticky, and the turnips very wet. Moreover, the harvest was backward, AND bitMs once put up on the stubble flew to the standing corn, which afforded them for tha time a safe asylum. Reports from the west midland v_cricultural counties—Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucester -report diversely as to the prospects of THE sportsman. In some parts of Herefordshire there is A good stock of partridges. Coveys are numerous and large, while from G-loucesbershire we have a repltTc that there is an unusual number barren birds. Worcestershire varies. Here and there are good <^OVEYS OF from ten to eighteen, while in other places there arc barren p,irs and small coveys of from ff*ar to eight. There were some heavy showers in Worcester- shire juft at, the hatching season, the end of Tune. There is a good show of pheasiwits, and hares are plentiful. The gaaae season in Leicestershire promises to be a fair average one. Spal.ting Gazette.

A ceremony of a very interesting character to ,k p'ace on Tuesday, September 9-h. at Phs Llanfair, the beautiful marine seat of Admiral Lord Clarence Paget, on the Metiai Straits. A colossal concrete statue of Nelson, which his lordship has just completed, after two years' patient labour, was unveiled by Earl Cowley. Notwithstanding most in- clement weather there was a large number of people present from all parts of Anglesea and the neighbourhood. The statue, which is 19 feet high, and weighs over 12 tons, is intended to answer the double purpose of perpetuating the memory of the greatest of our naval heroes and serving as a landmark to mariners navigating the highlv dangerous Swilly Channel. To carry out this latter object a square tower 13 feet high, has been built on a rocky promontory commanding an extensive view up and down the Menai Straits, This tower has been surmounted by a pedestal nine feet high, on which the statue is placed. The total height from the ground is thus 42 feet. The statue is of limestone and Portland cement, and one of the primary ob- jects Lord Clarence has had in view has been to show that our public parks can be decorated with statues little inferior to marble in appearance, and probably more durable, at a tenth of the cost of marble statues. Shortly after one o'clock a procession, headed by the Carnarvon military band and a detachment of the Naval Reserve from Carnar- von, marched from the h dl to the promontory, where the cere nony of unveiling was gone through in a drenching shower of rain. After a few words from Lord Clarence and Earl Cowley, Lady Clarence dedicated the statue to all mariners. A feu du joie was fired by the Naval Reserve detachment, Rule Britannia played by the band, and the inaugural ceremony was at an end. The procession then reformed, and returned to the hall, where a dejeuner had been nrovided for over 200 invited guests. In replying to the toast of his health, given by Earl Cowley, Lord Clarence, after a brief dejcription of the work of art which had been unveiled, said the statue was composed of a material which he hop"d shortly to see in more general use, for marble was both unsuit^d to our climate and extremely costly. The latter observation would apply f qually to stone and bronz". In the present times he believed it was nccessary to elevate the minds of the people by showing them copies of great works of art, statues of our great men, and other deigns, which all tended to elevate and civilise the peaple. (Hear, hear.) He hoped yet to see the day when our English villages would be more like the villages of Italy, which abounded in sculpture. The country was devoting great care and much expenditure to schools of art, but with the exception of a few isolated statues here and there, and the magnifi- cent memorial which the Qneen had erected to the llemory of the illustrious Prince Consort, there were no works of art which the people could see as they went to their daily work. By erecting the present statue he wished to show to the thousands of sailors who passed through'the Straits that there still lived in Engli h he arts the memory of one who was ewr realy to risk his life in his country's cause.

GRAVEYARDS AND CHOLERA. BY ROSE MARY CRAWSHAY. The majority of my readers will be shocked T.X HEAR that not only" did I decline to subscribe on FL0spital Sunday, but that, had help, been asked to Plall down hospitals, as at present constituted, I would hr,ve gladly adven it. A medical friend who accompanied me to a r"fiapel where a collection was made refused to give, and ior the same reason, as we both disapprove of all except cottage hos- pitals. The present large ones are vast nuclei for disease, and our first medical people know it. It v/ould be trying to any of that profession to tell us thr4t our money has done more harm than good but it is to be hoped that since a laic now speaks, some of those who know the dreadful amount of mischief hospitals have done, and are doing, will corroborate what is said (anonymously if they cannot publish their names). The amount of disease engendered by hospitals is pro- bably only second to that caused by graveyards. I have in the country passed cemeteries which, under certain at- mospheric conditions, emitted most sickening odours, and the highly sensitive crHlstitutiorlof Caspar Hauser used to be seriously affected for several days from the same cause. I believe some, Indian tribes use for their poisoned arrows only such as have been introduced below the SK;n of a dend body and those who know the dreadful effects of I the slightest scratch the surgeon may give himself with his dissecting knife, must, on reflection, feel how foolish it is of us to poison the ground by the repayment of our debt to it ere purified bv fire. r Man is composed of about a pailful of water with a few ounces of dust. During life air enters largely into his frame, and iflat death that most beautiful receptacle, fire. were used, the natural circle, earh, air, fire, and water, would be completed; and the soul (supposing it to be a spirit capable of entire disassociation from matter) would find itself free to enter an further courses of existence. It is a fanciful n,)tion, hut possible, that as long as any portion of the earthly frame is unresolved into the ele- ments, whatever there may be ethereal in man finds itself chained to it; th-refore, not alone on sanitaiy grounds do I hail the movement the medical press has re- cently favoured. Incremation would be a vast improvement on our present plan of burying dead bodies, and is a reform perchance lying at the root of all sanitary improvement. Surely the bodies of all animals not used for food might be burnt by way of a be-cinning. We F-eern to have pret'y well ascertained that typhoid fever is induced by inhalation of the noxious sewer tas. Water which has filtered through a graveyard has been suspected of breeding cholera and the fact that good meat placed at a certain altitude above a cholera-stricken dis- trict turned rapidly putrid seems to point to the existence of germs of putridity in the atmosphere on occasion of cholera. Surely it is easier to suppose such germs emanating from all the foui and reeking graveyards of the world, and from all the buried and unburied carcases of animals, than to imagine it a visitation from God!' It is truly a hopeful sign for the improved health of the country that the medical press has been brave enough to call the attention of the public to a reform so much needed and which will doubtless banish more than half the disease now rife among us for when earth, air, and water are by the agency of fire rendered really pure, man, composed of the first three elements, will necessarily become a purer being, with far less inclination to unhealthy pleasures. It is indeed impossible to overrate the benefit we may derive by no longer slighting one of God's best gifts fi reo J 0 0 0 Doctors are courageous in thus taking the initiative FOR they know well there is a CLAS^ which will oppose them tooth and nail, as it always does all progress. We shall be met by the alleged impossibility of trying any experiment but it might not be impossible to obtain a Bill in Parliament to make it penal to dispose of the body of any dead animal, unfit for food, otherwise than by burning. A patent would soon be.taken out by some one for an economical and odourless mo,le of incremati n and if the health of the country were suddenly from that time to improve, it would b an imp >rtant step, even though prejudice might yet for a while delay the incremation of the human dead. Perhaps lightning might assist in the process, although it would require combination with some other agencies to dispose of the bodies, which possibly lightning would but char. The idea of the soul btdng perchancs so intimately hour d up with its companion the body as to be forced to witness the honibleprocess of decay slowly progressing through years, nay, in the case of mummies through ages, is truly anpalling and although many will see only subject for ridi- cule in such a notion. we know ton little of th it undis- covered country which may exit beyond the grave to speak dogmatically allOUG it. It is in o'.ir own power to pluck at least this one possible sting- from death by care that no grave or funeral urn shall prevent the return of earth to earth. Beyond a 1-ck of hair, surely we shoald ot wi,h after death, to deiay that mir-gling with the universe which seems our destiny. .:iome of my readers may say that since we do not find that any of our mental power separates itself to follo.v the fortunes of the hair, teeth, or nails shed during life, the suggestion is too fanciful to be entertained but when we hear the strange experience? of people who h .ve but. nar- rowly escaped being buried alive—how they ku,w thing that went on, Av!ieii supposed by sorrowing friends to have been bevond all feeling and knowledge—and the drearliul revelations which graves, opened after a Lipse of years, btve ma(le, tif supposed corpses which have turned h-df round in the coffin, .<i-.d others which give evid.i-'C of having made strenuous effort to escape fr.,m their ghastly prison, we feel that we do not know with certainty at wlnt period of the tody's decay consciousness leaves it nor c .n we say with absolute assurance that thought may net con- tinue as long as one of those cerebral mohcules whose movements arc pronounced to be the mo le of thought. I think even from m iterialists I may look for support to this plan for burning instead of bur} ing the bodies ot the dead since supposing their ideas be correct, they \v >tild surely advocate any plan which would allow of the vital principle continuing some happy curse of existence, though it might be but in the flower or crytal. If afrer th s: prC-Ilt lives those who have not rightly used their opportunities and intelligence in forwarding all possible reforms should find themselves with lessened s obliged to drift th, ongh conditions where, instead of acting, they could only be acte! upon, th"re might be Tegret for lost opportunities sufficient to mak.j a hell,' though scarce y the orthodox one. Discussion on tha sir j-ct ot incremation led to 'he re- mark that people might g..t burnt before they we>-e dead just as well as buri. d Heiore they were dead. 'Yes bu., s.iid one of the party, it wouid b> very apt to w.ike them up.'

LET THE THINKING READ AND PONDER. Liverpool. May 22. 1873. Henry D. Brandreth, Esq. 57, Great Charlotte-street. Dear Sir,—Having suffered from cold and sore throat, with a severe pain round my shoulder-blafle, for more than six weeks, and after tryine various remedies without any effect, a rien, t of mine induced me to try your world-renowned porous plaster, and I am happy to say the effect was marvellous I pi leed a strip round my throat an,1 another piece round the shoul !er-bl uie from the back of the neck towards the spine, and in a remark- ably short time I felt relieved. The yard planter I hun the most useml to cut from as recommended. But I did not '.et entirely rid of my complaint until I was further induced to "uåke Br^mdreth's Pills. 1 took five pills one ev ning abo-.it six o'clock, and five more the next evening, and five (he evening but one after, an I need hardly tell you with wha'. results — the following day I was perfectly cured, and have rot had any return of the pain. If sufferers like myself could only be indnee(I ti take the ad- vica as I did, "nd follow the instructions given, theywou'.d have little need to seek medical aid. A* first the idei of five pills at a dose rather alarmed me, but in future I shall rather increase the doso than otherwise waen anything ails me, as I find my general health so much iinprovei. You inav make any use you please of this letter, an.(i [ enclose my card, an I if neces- sary you may refer to me; \rat to avoid unnecessary corres- pondence, I would rather you did not publish my uime iu full. —Yours truly, G. H. BRANDRETH'S PILLS JD ARE WARRANTED VEGETABLE AND INNOCENT, COSTIVEiNESS and DIARRHOEA are alike cured by BRANDRETH'S PILLS, for they always re- move that which is hurtful. No one should ever try to cure diarrhoea by astringents, for those remedies may bring on complaints far more to be drea ied. The certain cure is Bran treth's Vegetable Universal Pills, safe for all ages and sexes. 15a, Whittle-street, Kirkda'e, Liverpool. Jane 10, 1873. HENRY D. BRANDRETH. Dear Sir,—For some time past, I may say ever since you introduced your life-saving remedy to the Briti h public, I have nsed them both for costiveness and diarrhoea, and always fonnd relief. A short time since my litte child was so constipated that neither castor oil nor several other remedies I used were of any effect, theb iby being only six months old. I did not like to give it a pill, but was re- commended to give it half of one, and the effect was wonderful, and he has since enjoyed mist exe llent health.—Yours truly, R. W. CAIIPBELL. I know that for children and infants Brandreth's Pills are the best medicine in the world; they are alwavs safe and sure. HENRY D. BRAV PF. H.

THOMAS BONSALL, JLj M.A., as to the Qualities and Reputation of Brandreth's Pills and Allcock's Plasters. Wissett Vicar.'ge, near Halesworth, Suffolk, July 29,1872. H. D. BRANDRETH, ESQ., LIVERPOOL. Mv Dear Sir,—Please forward me some of Brandreth's Pills and Porous Plasters to amount of end >siir.j. I may here state I have he n ia the habit, for the last thirty- seven years, of administering those reme He" to the sick with great success. I have been well acquainted .ith Dr B. Brandreth, of New York, for nearly for'y vpars, an 1 can certify that he gives constant emplovment to urv'-nrds of one hemdred persons Ipreparing these commodities alone. Brandreth's Pills and Allcock's Porous Pli-;t 'rs are the household remedies of neirly every family in the United States Rnd throughout South America. Wean know that many persons take medicine when the, do not need it. It is, therefore, of importance that the medicine should he incapable of hurting. Now I know Brandreth's Pills to he perfectly harmless from long experieuce of their effects. Yet, when the bowels or the bloo I need cleans- ing, they are a thoroughly energetic medicine, arousing all the istarlof organs to healthy action. In colds, co'ics, and costiveness thev give relief im neJia elv, an t tnose who use them will find them a safe ancl most rei ible remedy.- I am, yours truly, THOMAS BONSALL.
