Descending the staircase to the floor a number of stalwart warders were observed to fee grouped awaiting the appearance of the unhappy culprit. The under-sheriff entered the condemned cell and Read appeared at the door accompanied by THK EXECUTIONER. borne points of similarity in the attire of the convict and of Billington were noticeable. Read wore the light gre\ suit in whieh he was dressed throughout the magisterial pro- ceedings and during his trial before Mr. Baron Pollock. The exccu- tioner was also in a light costume, though of a somewhat different shade of color, and both men wore light cloth caps. As the culprit stepped on to a asphalte outside the cell door, he faltered and oast a dazed glanee arounil, appearing to take in the entire scene. The Marshall headed the procession, immediately behind comieg the sheriffs, officials, ane then the ehief warder. The chuplain, in a voice broken with emotion, began the opening sentences of the burial service of the Church of England, I am I the Resurrection and the Life." As thes-e solemn words fell upon the ears of the I listeners the warders closed up, and the procession moved onwards, Billington walking immediately behind the convict. Since his trial. Read's beard has become longer and somewhat unkempt; the hair has grown so long as to very nearly fell upon his cellar, whieh was open at the back. His face denoted the extremity of MENTAL AGONY and was striking from its deathly pallor. The distance to be traversed was comparatively short and very few sentences of tie liturgy had been read when the convict entered the somewhat narrow doorway separating the yard from the fatal trap. There was here some little crowding, but Billington with much celerity and address helped I the culprit on to the scaffold. The shrieval party took their places on the edge of the trap, the chaplain a little to the right, the condemned man with his fare to the wall. Rapidly the feet were secured and the nose was adjusted, the executioner fbllowing these offices by the act of quickly adjusting the white cap and so hiding the head of the convict from view. Only one request fell from the lips o- the unhappy man as the nose was keing fixed in its place. lie asked the executioner to button his coat, which part of his attire up to that moment had open. A painful silence broken only by the words of tlio uttendaut minister and the resonaot tones of the death knell, a quick pull of the lever; and James Canham Read disappeared. DEATH WAS instantaneous, but the rope was so swayed by the muscular twitchings of the body that for a moment Billington steadied it by holding it firmly in his right hand. A glance into the pit showed that the metal eyelet at the end of the rope had been drawn np tightly under the chin, dislocation of the I vertebrae of the neck having accompanied the heavy thud of the falling body. A drop of 7't. 8iu. had been given. KKAU 6 ijAO i ii.Ou.iIS, On the return of the undershenit and his • .artv te the governor's room the Press I A seociation's correspondent gleaned a few interesting facts as to the convicts last I moments. He retired to rott last night at 10.30 and slept fairly well until 5.40 this mern- t ing. At the breaUfaBt hour he partook of I read and buller and tea. The chaplain iji'.ed him twice and his second stay in the coudemned.coli was while Roid finished h:s meagre repast and it was then that the cul- prit, replying to Mr. Westbrook, intimated that lie had no statement to make beyond an expression of thanks to the governor auJ I officials. It appeared, however, from the chaplcin's statement that Read had written something to the Home Office, the substance of which he could not communicate for pub- lication. During the piuioiiing the Under Sheriff also approached the dying man with tne oUject* of ascertaining whether he had anything to say, or any wishes to make known. I-Iis reply was in substance that which he had already given to the jail chaplain. NO CONFESSION. The Press Associations special correspond- ent on leaving the prison was officially iia- formed bv the Governor that no confession of the crime of which he vt&n convicted had been made by ReaO convicted bad been made by ReaO It was farther stated by one of the promi- nent officials that up to within a very brief time of the carrying into effect of the last dreud sentence the convict had again and again reiterated that no evidence of his hav- ing ever been seen with Florence Dennis had been adduced against him. THE INQUEST. After the body had huugthe preseribedtime, an inquest was held within the precincts, and a formal verdict returned. After the pro- ceedings of the ecrouer s court had concluded, I the remains were buried, in the presence of the L'nder-Sheriff and Governor. BUSINESS EXTENSION. Mr. W. S. Clark, grocer and provision dealer, 77, Oxford-street, has now re-openea his premises after extension and alterations Several partition walls have been pulled down. which have had the elfect of doubling the sizo of the shop, providing office nccom- modation, whilst extensive storerooms and cellarage have been added. The whole premises have been renovated, and fitted up in urst-class style, and everything possible done to enable Mr, Clark to deal with a I rapidly increasing business. The establish- ment will now compare fovourably with any in S waasea.

Mr. Ekenezer Thomas, B.A an old Swan- sea schoolmaster, has settled down in earnest to work up the Llanfair Intermediate School, in Montgomeryshire. Out of a possible 45, aeeording to the scheme, the school has now I 30 pupils, made up of 17 boys and 13 girls, and in this respect stands first in the county. Some few weeks ago a petition of English- women was got up preying the new Czar to I liberate the Polish prisoners who are now detained in Siberia. Miss C. L. Pirkis, of Mutfield, Surrey, was tne secretary of the I movement, and Mr. James Glass, F.U.H.8., of Swansea, via given the secretaryship for Wales. Owing, however, to the Czar's recent manifesto, the petition has been withdrawn. withdrawn. In the Abei avon Fa risk Magazine for this month the Vieai says:—"By ii.e sudden death of Lord Swansea, tho parish lias lost another sympathetic i'riend (the first beiiij,' Miss Olive Talb ;t). It js alt for us to say anything in "ùese papers of his great and dis- tinguished attainments and public work, but humbly to Oipress gratitude that such an one lived—one whe conferred grent bensfits on his fellow-men."

IIMPOSING PUBLIC CEREMONY.
I IMPOSING PUBLIC CEREMONY. VAST ASSEMBLAGE. PROCESSION OF CITIZENS AND OFFICIALS. SWANSEA, Monday. To-day were laid to rest in the quiet, shady God's-acre at Sketty the remains of one than whom Swansea has never had, nor can scarcely ever have, a greater benefactor, j Never, within memory, has such solemnity brooded on the brow of Hw&aeea—never before has the public heart knewn such a stirring of its tenderest and deepest-emotions. Five short days ago Lord Swansea, apparently in robust health, wai with us., but in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye," he had departed and sinee then Great Britain, yes, and Greater Britain, too, has not ceased to pen its tokens of regret along the margin of bis good name. Wales and Welsh- men have felt all the grief of a personal loss; but in local chronicles the writing of this day shall he sad and dark indeed, for to his immediate neighbours Lord Swansea repre- sented all that was powerful in politics, society, philanthropy, and commerce. fnd pøor alike forgot their positions and ertede in their desire to pay the last tribute of respect to the memory of the departed peer to-day and Lhe town from early morning was astir with thousands of citizens and visitor* intent on attending the last sad rite. At neon all the public bodies, in compliance with the request of the Mayor, assembled at the Guild-hall, where the head of a gigantic procession, which atretcbed away into all the surrounding streets, was formed. Shortly afterwards the first part or the procession started slowly up Wind-street in order that the remainder of its huge length might be marsballed. The following was the order taken:— THE PROCESSION. Mounted Police. Harbour Employes.

I It was half-past twelve Lei ore a start could be made, but thanks to the admirable ariiu--e nient-i made by Captain Colquhoun and ids marshals, not the slightest hileh aitt-rwaruB inter fared with the due ot;4«c im | the processie*. The mounted police drew up I' by the solemnly crapcd Vivian statue,but were forced, before finally leading off, to move forward to the corner of Temple-street and Castle Bailey-street. This enabled thosei portions of the procession whieh had been marshalled in the bye-streets to converge gradually into Wind-street, and thus follow in their appointed order. By this hour1 the main avenues of the town were crowded. Ou balconies and housetops the people congregated thickly, and the pavements as well as such parts of the road as were not kept clear by the police, were literally congested. It is computed that there were over 40,000 people in the procession) which, at various points in the journey, took 35 minutes te pass a given point The sun pbonewith lusual December brightness and tbe ,.1" i. air seemed moderately to ani- mat r: ght otherwise have been a most depree# ? ie.

The officers of the lvcaJ Salvation Array oorps, looking lowly evcn in their staringly red jerseys, were present in full numbers. The song "Crugybar" was replaced in due course by Bydd myrdd o rhyfoddodnu"—the other grand old hymnal representative of Wolah pathos. The thrill- ing effect of thill, too, was heightened by the belts of St. Mary's Church, which at selemn intervale ding-donged the deep diapason of the dead. Turning into TEMPLE STRRET the procession went down the inohne there at a rapid step. Sir John Llewelyn, who arrived from London by the 12.40 train, and who immediately entered the carnage which was in waiUug, ahortiy a terwards joined the procession. Several other carriages also followed. OXFORD-STREF.T. When the procession reached the Post- office it turned off into Oxferd-etreet by Mesan. Ben Evans and Co.'s premises. The streets were one deaso mass of people, but the arrangements to accelerate the progress of the processionists were I of the very best order. Captain Colquhoun and the ei»ht mounted ^constables so arranged themselves across the thorough- fare, as to keep the road perfectly clear, the thousands of onlookers having pcrforce to content themselves with < view from the pavements. The Mayor's request to the I tradesmen to c'ose their premises, had otw.. throuehouf the If-* of the procesfcien. Shops were closed, shutters were up, and blinds wore drawn, and. alto- gether there were signs of genuine sorrow, sympathy and rtltop. ou every hand. The suu shone .out in all its brilliancy. Beiis toiled their mournful peals Iron) the towers of neighbouring churches and flags oould be seen dying at hal!-ma«t everywhere. The proces&ion turned up Dillwyn-street and thus eutered St. Helen's-road. The crowd cou'inued to be very great, out was probably at its deusebt near the Swansea rius, itai which was reached I at abuut 10 minutes to one o'clock. It would have been a good thinx had the trams keen I stopped during the progress of the proces- sion. < As it was at least one tram cauaed a little inconventeoce. This was in SU Helen's- road. I*. Tee sight Trbich presen:td itself along the royle frum the-JaasprtaJt-to Singleton AWotey was pictu; esqne, yet som'^re, in the extreme. On either Idae of the Mumblee-road, thousands ef faces contrasted sadly WJth the bri^h^uess of what was in I all respects save the-keen east wind a perfect summer's morning. The beautiful tranquility I which prertiled as the solemn procession I moved slowly along told of the intensity of the public sorrow and the depth of their sadness. There was a ¡ caimness ana peace prevailing everywhere. I Then a thrilling effect was eau od by a. thousand voicea bursting into eong. The voiume of melody produced upon the tena of I thousands who were within hearing distance | a stirring effect. The hymn the choir sang waa- Daeth yr awr i'm ddianc adre' Draw o gyrhaedd pob rhyw gwr. Gwdaf dorf o'm hsn gyfeillion, I Daw ar lan y Ganaau bur. The echo of the voices was wafted along j by tke breeze for miles ahead, and as the grand old woras were rs- j ucaicd again auu again by the ckori*ters eyes became dimmed and a gentle influence stole in unawares upou every breast. Inside the Abbey gates a space of ground had been reserved fer meinlers 01 the choir ?vnd after taking up their MHera -sitiouo, t e profound silesce was broktu by tite strains of Bydd inyrdd o ryfeddodau ¡ Ai doiiad t'oreu wawr, Pan cidolo plant, y t.on.. u Yn iach or cystudd mawr I OU jaeu gynau gvt ynion, Ac or pu mwydd wedd, Y11 deb* g idd eu Harglwydd Yn d'od i'r 'an o'r SMd. Y11 deb* g iddeu Harglwydd Yn d'od i'r lan o'r SMd. The effect was indeed mM-eltoua. Hundreds took off their hats and bowed their heads in reverence. It was enoagh to touch the most stolid of hearts. With every repetition ef the I last four lines the sweet singers seemed tar, fresh strength and" inspiration and e conductor, M r .Watkins, who was always held in high et Leem by the late Lord Swansea, was meved to tears. After the last I words, Yn d'od i'r lan o'r bed. had led away, the Luge assembly seemed to heave a heavy sigh before dispersing in diverse direc- tions, AT SINGLETON ABBEY, After tke choirs had song within tne-sates, the procession ceutinued ita way along the broad avennesas far as the abbey. Here a i stop was made, while Lady Swansea and the members of the family entered the mourning coaches which were in waiting. The coffin during this while reposed in the library, whither it had been conveyed frwn his late lordshro'a dressing-room the pre- ceding evening. ISie intimate friends ef the Vivians were privileged to see it here. On the arrival of the hearse the coffin was reverently borne into its interior, I and the many magnificent floral tributes were laid in their place. waJUTJiS.

The scene was a heart-rending one, and many a sob betokened the grief ot relative I and<oak>oker alike. I THROUGH THE PARK. j It was twe o'clock when the procession, as now augmented, started from tbe Abbey. The scene in the park during the long heur that it took the cortege to gat through was a Most impressive one. Thousands upon I Lhonsands of spectators waited about on the leaf-strewn ground or walked fram the Abbey towards the church aadroad. Aatid the clusters of leaflets trees other I thousands showed from end to end of the kroad grounds. The solemn black worn by the men, relieved only by the toilets of the women, lacked nothing in impresslveness as the sullen suu gleamed down tqxtnit ail. In one part of the park a quaint- looking structure, half chateau half chaumière, stands on the side of the avenue leading towards SketLy. A balcsn on two sides ef it was laden with people con- nected by service with the Viviaa family. A motto in German inscribed conspicuously on the frout read with singular appropriateness at that grave function Liebe sodass cu wieder leben ma^st." When that portion of the cortege which prcecded the Swansea Sailors Society had rassed along, there carne LI1", lirst carriage, containing Mr. Edward Strrck (solicitor to the deceased pper), Dr. D.

Nothing could so unmistakably h&vt- te;,tiuel to the popularity ot the late peer, ana the LC- spect in wbich he was universally held, as the II tremendous flux ef people who waiksd be- hind tbe cortege. Their numbers seemed in- exhaustible, and, together with those who took part in the p.ocession and l those who had by this this time placed themselves in the vicinity of { the church must have reached 50.00C— possibly more. The small path diverging trom th" drive was quickly covered bv spectators, anxious thus to reacl: Sketty I Churchyard by the most direct route. The J neighbourhood of the family vault which 1 borders on the park was soon ocouuied. by a living half circuit fully forty;, deep Many of the younger meaHf hers of the community climbed thetj adjacent trees and were thus enabled to catchsj a glimpt-e of the solemn proceedings tnti the churchyard. It Wiis a quarter*! past three before the end ot tharl cortege passed through Singleton Gates* and there still remained the approach 10 tUeí: sacrfd edifice to traverse. The wholepiacelj was absolutely congested, notwithstanding]] the fact that at fire minotcs past three ihejj massed choir began its first funeral hymn imj God s acre, drawing niacyto within the ranger of their voices. The sight presented by a, j glimpse vp Skettv>road was calculated' to raise no little wonder. The b»hk& lining the roadway were packed, every* available incfl or ground being taken ad. vantage of. The road, as far as tho eye could reach, was dotted with living humanity I like leaves of vallambrosa, while tranches of trees, garden walls, housetops, wooden sheds, &e., were all thiekly occupied. In the ehurchyard mpvemcnt was almost impossible ehurchyard mpvemcnt was almost impossible to great was the throng. I IN THE CHURCHYARD. I For several hours before the arrival of the I funeral cortege., large crowds cowmet,oed te meve along the several roads leading to Sketty. Thd road passing in front of the church was early I occupied by a huge throng of peoplo, who.. clung te the walls surrounding the church- < yard and stationed themselves at all points of* vantage in the fields on the north side of the church with the hope ef obtaining a view of the huriaL A large body of police, num- bering about 80, under the direction off Superintendent Thomas, Neatii, were sta-. tioned inside the grounds of tno church, and ( it was not without considerable difficulivfj that they prevented tbe crowd from I scaling tbe walls. At the tine ap- proached for the arrival of the! funeral prooession the crush outside j became terrific, and the scene one of a most I 4 extraordinary description. Men. women, and ¡ j children were wedged icto one tight mail, and < the road appeared tubeabsoluteiy impassable until the mounted police forced a way tor the ) hearse and its followers. Those who were I; not satisfied with the view to be obta-ined cf 1 the churchyard from the road lived the oppo- < site wall, and every tree above it wm blsck < with people. In spite of this, however, the | police succeeded in maintain^ admirable order. ] Inside the ciiurciiyard e«er\ tiling was very quiet and placid. Tiie sun siioae in snbroken continuity ever the enchanting expanse o" sloping meadww which lay between the church 1 and Singleton Abbey, lighting up t with 'entrancing effect the thick with 'entrancing effect the thick juniper trees whicu surround the building and throwing into picture* shadows the ^othic < architecture of the sacred edifice. At nine in ¡ the morning Koiy Coiumuaion was celebrated I ] by the Rev, E. W. iioiney, the v.car of t»l etLy. i The was attended bv Lady Swansea < and tit9 whole of tbe family. After it was I over the bereaved family returned to Single- ton Abhey. Lady Swansea is said to have I conducted herself with threat catttness. At r about 2.0 minute's piijt one the passiag hell. boomed wllh oielanehoiy eiaphajiis from; i the steeple. A ft<w of tbe public I were admitted, including the saemhers ef the I J choir, for whom an enclosed space was reserved near the entrance to the family vault on tllie south side of the church. AT SKKTTY CHURCH. While crowds of immense p'op-jrtions. jBWd ail the entrances and liveware to the little church of Sketty, whieh ie situated at the extreme edge of Singleton Park, there was little to indicate, so fur as the interior of the church was concerned, that a luemorahle service was about to take place within its walls. The doorways were care- fully guarded by ecnstables, aad only the possessors of special permits COP id obtain ac entrance. The bare walls, beautifully re- lieved by the h&cdsome stained glass windows, through which the sun reflected in many colours could bat witness two or three persons mtenflv engaged in perusing the specially printed hymn Leaflets which were lying about the seats, but wlaen,81..rtly before three o'clock, the head of the precession made its appearance in the vicinity of the church there was a deal of activity evidenced, and the church was quickly and uncomfortably filled, with the exception of the pews which were reserved for the r>econxnedaiien of the mourners. Meanwhile the organist of the church, Mr. C.F. Fryer, played Mendelssohn's beautiful solo, "If with all your hearts.' The coffin was met at the church- yard gates by the three sorplioed clertry, namely, tke Rev. D. W. Bolney, Vic&r of betty; the Rev. Caaoa Smith, Viear of I Swansea; a d the Rev. G. Emery, Curate of Pemnaen, at which latter phtee the no n Aubrey Vivian resides. As the mortal re- mains of the deceased peer were being carried int» the church, the Vicar of Sketty repeated in solemn aact impressive tones, the well-known verses from tbe barial service commencing "I am the resurrection and* the life," "I know that my Redeemer In-eth," and "We brought nothing into the world." The tenantry and estate workiLen were ibc first to arrive, and ibey earned the innumerable wreaths of exquisite beauty winch had been received at .Singleten trom- all parts, and which were in themselves a remarkable testimony | ef thfrtuakfueesteemand admiration in which; th« laie>p»ar was generally held.

The coffin was reverently carried and placed near the chancel, followed by the moumeES. whese grief and anguish was palpably aeaåt, and who oecupied the two Vivian pews close to the pulpit. It was noticed that tibe new peer was not present. Lady Swansea, heavily veiled, leaned on the arm of the Hon. Aubrey Vivian. While the mourners audvothers were taking tkcir-eeats, Mendelssohn s 0, Rest :n the l^ora"' pealed forth from the > organ.

J. W. Hall makes a big hit. He I sings his very humorous songs in a most j fetching way, and, by being true to nature, I gets in those touches which make tbe whole I world kin. The Brothers Lang intro- duce a new knockabeut act. Dressed as Chinamen, they bang each other about beautifully and force the audience into a continued roar. OConnor and Marney, a brace of talented variety artistes, and Laurance Barclay, another capital I I comedian, complete a programme which • leaves nothing to ue desired in the way of fun, singing, dancing, and instrumentation. kWe have no hesitation in recommending our [ j Readers to pay a visit to the High-street) Balacc of Varieties.

The artiste whom we referred to as the ¡: mezzofanti ef music plays, among others, the following instruments :—cornet, claiinette, I post born..musette, oboe, cor anglais, ocarina, saxophone, concertina, coach horn, piccolo, flute, violoncelio banjo, guitar and mandoline. It is not to be understood I that he simply gets certain airs out of those instruments. As a matter cf fact he manipu- lates each with the most complete skill. His ) mastery ever, of such a bumble instrument as the ocarina is wonderful, taste and technique t-tiabling him to rise to a high level of plHY- j inft- I I was Ijorn almost in tne British Army," j j said Virto last (Monday) night to a Post i (reporter whe sought to know II little of his oistory. I am a Londoner by birth, but was j early entered by a musical relative on the j band of the 5th Dragoon Guards. After serving, as one may say, my apprenticeship to regimental music, I purchased my discharge from theDragecns, and thee joined the baud of the-Grenadier Guards, where I served for i.sevea years under Lièut.
