The discourse was based on tho last paragraph in tho li.;tb chapter of St. John's epistle—the burial of tho b'-iy of Josus by Jcaepii of Aramathea and i\'icodemus in the grave prepared by ino former. The misery surrounding an open grave had been strikingly placed before them during the past weeh. at Pontypridd, but a, great deal of tho consequent- sorrow and distress coulu not be told by the medium of human words. He prayed that God— with whom ali power and care was possessed— wouid cause thu distribution of the superfluous, wasting, wealth of the country towards the alleviation of the sorrow of the widows and i'ather- leslS, and that from the foundation?, of rich men's hearts would rise rivers of good and the streams caused to overflow for the benefit of mankind, The rev. gentleman concluded by earnestly nppeaJ- ing to his hearers to give an account of their actions, and the best death would then ba that i which was least premeditated. )

CO RUES POIN 1>EN€E
CO RUES POIN 1>EN€E MIl. W. WILLIAMS, M.P., AND THE CUURCH iN WALES TO rNR 15 iron OF TI: J-. U SOUTH WALKS I-AILY rOcT." oja,— In your report of the speech of Mr. W. Williams, M.ir at Brynhvfryd, in your issue of Saturday last, I find the following statements relative to the Church in Wales v. hich, to put it j mildly, a, e about at. gross, palpable, misleading, j and unwarrantable as could ee well put together in tiie Si, a.e space. It is, of course, equally easy to y to the gallery and "tidÜe the ears of the grouudJings by ridiculing matters of great I moment, but it is hardly creditable to do so at tbe expense of truth, or even by following the very dvubtful Ti ic of what is generally known as the "Fuppressio veri'" and the "suggestio falsi." Consciously or not, Mr. Williams was guilty of lioth, for one can hardiy suppose that he is ignorant of the \ery common and well-known elementary i facts of the irisiory of the Church or the country. Tho statement.s are as follows 1.—"That in tha district of Penllergaer, instead of churches he would Snd Nonconformist chapels." 2.—" Chapels for the poor as distinguished from the churches of the rich." 3.—"For the many as distinguished from the churches for the few." Those three statements can only be distinguished as a gross libel upon tbe Church in Wales and upon Churchmen, some of whom are his constitu- ents, aud are at least, entitled to fair play when the Church they love is spoken of at a public meeting. Mr. Williams must have known he was I suppressing the truth when ho insinuated the absence of churches in the dist .sets referred to, and unpardonably so when he li'oelled the Charch, by implying that it was for the rich only, No greater fajsollood with regard to the Church than that of i exclusiveness could be uttered. Witere ire the roor-aye" and the poorest of the poor -freely I welcomed if not in tLe Church ? Wtero are there I free houses of prayer outside this old mother ?" an 1 where do the poor go who cannot alurd to pay a seat rent or a pew rent ? Where do they go j when they cannot afford any longer to pay for their sitting ? Docs Mr. Williams knfew r If not,! I csn tdllrim. Not to the charei, but they find refuge with the old mother," who is ey-Ir ready to receive them without money or without price, i Will Mr. Williams look up the history of our j chapeli m large towns—aye, and even i i Swan- sea and South Wales ? If he will, be will find that not one, but nearer on" hundred, have been closed j and sold Why" ? Because be locality was too poor to maintain them or a minister. Another fact for Mr. Williams, which may surpriso him, viz., that the Church of England bought a number of them, a.nd actually uses them to-day as churc ics where large congregations of very very poor ppople find spiritual ccusolation from tha much abused resident clergymen. These arc facts, and for Mr. Williams's edification and instruction I will, in the course of a few days, supply him with a sample list of disused and dis- posed of chapcis. Mr. Williams also trotted out the old, stale. fiat, aud well-worn State-paid fiction. S«rely he mast have laughed up his sleeve at the simplicity of his audience when be spoka of 4. "Chapfis which were voluntarily supported ar distinguii-iicd from Churches supported by the State." 6. 'Chapels which were self-governing as dis- tinct, from State Arehbisbops and Bishops." Ti;e Law Courts would reveal n story of "self- governed" chapels, if he chose to search. These statements sound well anJ look very nice on paper; but what do they amount ta six the) absence of proof ? A little less thioi nothing, Would Mr, Williams repeat, si.ch unbis-1 tovical and fioaucid nonsense in the House of Commons, where be ceuid be answered on the spot ? I trow not, It is said that the Bourbons learned nothiog and forget ] everything. Mr. Williams is tlieir flatterer by imitation. He will act learn from the Budget j lilli, which Ijas been discussed ttvelve weeks with oat even one small or faint s'iasdon to the pay of the elergy and, secondly, he vdty fo;- £ Pt that his great ex-ehjef, Mr. Gladstone/ cays that the clergy are rtoi State-paid," and Mr. Uladstune was Chanecdor of the Exchequer fox ma.<<y years, and f-.O was a ma.u of authority no the question of "State pay." Farther, who were the "State Archbishops" and" State Bishops^conseerateU by (because yc-u cannot have fn arehlnsliop or bishop without) ? If 1 know history"at ail, tacy were eon-I ?ecratod by oiheers of ths t hurcb. not of the Stafe. aud certainly the State has no power to remove either archbishop, bishop, or clergyman, any more than it Can make «ne. It is true a j clergyman, bishop, or archbishop can be nominated hy laymen, but hey mnst be prieats'an J be cptfl-1 eopaliy ordained or eonsecrated. Mr. Williams indulges in cheap comnion-place in order to raise a cheer from people wbo should be regarded more in sorrow thaix^'anger because, j they are misled. Where does thf.; "S'ate come j wi th regard to the vacancy of Bath and Weils be- { yond, of course, naming a priest for the high and holy oihee of Bishop Tnp Archbishop ot j Canterbury has officially taken ?hj«-ge of the j dioecaa and safe-guarded the revenues, Why I did not the Chaneelior of the Exchequer do thaI; ? Mr. Williams knows. Lassly, Mr. WilUams says j ho only wants the Church froe from the State. Is j lie honesi in that statement ? If .to. why does he i advocate aud vole for Disendovrcimcnt ?" One] is not necessarily a complement, corollary, ovj consequence of the other, pei St1. You can have Disestablishment without. Than whv not' Beeausc it is £ » d which is being lo^-ked s'ter.
