isPBCUL REPORTS FROM OURTRADB CORRES- PONDENTS AND EXCLUSIVE SOURCES ] CARDIFF TRADE REPORT. [SPECIAL REPORT BY OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] CARDIFF, Thursday Night.—The trade of this port has been in a most unsatisfactory condition during the present week. In consequence of a great scarcity of tonnage, shi. pere have experienced the greatest Dowible difficulty in keeping themselves fairly occupied. Many of t' em, however, h ive a respectable number of ships on their books to arrive, but at the moment the docks are very scantily furnished with tonnage. Under the cir- cumstances it is almost unnecessary to add that there i, at present, no indication of any improve- ment in the price of ooal. The falling off in the exports amounts to about 20,000 tons as compared with those of last week, and. unfortunately, the arrivals during the wc-k are about 6.000 tons less than the clearance of the same period, so that there is no immediate prospect of improvement in the statistics of trade. It is not easy to account for the prevailing scarcity of ships, for, although the prevailing wintÍs have been favourable for outward-bound vessels, the weather generallv has be<n fair enongh rot to interfere much with those c,),it)g up cliannel In the freight market tonnage has offered rather more freelv than last week, but is still very scarce in nianv directions. A moderate amount of char- tering has been dene, but less than is sufficient to iiiake satisfactory progress with the orders on ) hand. French rates are a trifle easier. Gibraltar and Spanish freights are steaav, &t»amers are in demand, and few offered. Homeward rates for Spanish ore are stiH good, both from Bilbao and Caitha;retia. From the ore ports of the Mediter. ranean to the United States stea.mer are in de- mand at good rates. The Italian ports have risen again considerably, and tonnage is sfr ll very scarce in this direction. Boats have been fixed for Veidce and the Adriatic at remunerative figures. Malta is easy, as is also Port Said, for which several boats have been fixed. The higher Medi- terranean ports are quiet, but as only limited ton- nage is offering ships easily obtain these charters where required. Ho,i-.e,, ard Black Sea business is very firm for advanced steamers, but ra'her quiet for December. Brazil rates have advanced, and for the River Plate are much firmer. There is little or ne tonnage offering. East India outward business is easier, but the homeward rates are good and firm. For the West Indies there is a somewhat active demand for tonnage, but there is little doing, as tonnage does not dfer freely. Boats are still beiig fixe I for iron to the United states. and several cargoes are still in the market. Tl is is all the transatlan ic steam bus'n^ss which has been reported, although steamers are enquired for to Martinique and St. Thomas, but at rates which do not attract offers. H- mewards from the States there ia still a good demand for tonnage at fair rates. The arrivals of iron ore during the 1" eek have been unusually small, about 700 tons being all that has come to band. About 4,500 tons of pitwood have been imported. The entries outwards of vessels to load in Cardiff, during the v eek, comprise 44 steamers, of the es- timated bnrthen of 47,846 ions, and 58 sailing vessels, calculated to carrv 30,196 tons, making a total of 78,04-2 tons against 120.531 tons of last week. The fresh supply of tonnage amounts in Swansea, for the week, to 17,572 tous, and in New. port to 27,916 tons. Cardiff has cleared foreign during the week 52 stenmers and 42 sailing ves-elii with 76,199 tons of coal, 2,080 tons of iron, ana 550 tons of patent fuel. Of the iron t790 tons went to New York, 674 tons to Constantinople, 316 tons to Bonaholm, and 300 tons to Rotterdam. The coal and fuel ship- ments were as follows France, 22,566 tons; Mediterranean ports, 20,774 tons;' East Indies, 13,487 to-is Eastern Mediterranean ports, 4,270 tons Africa, 4c., 3,780 tons; 3pain, 3,658 tons; South America, 3,505 tons; West Indies, 2,.i59 tons Portugal, 1,550 tons and Baltic, ke., 800 tons. Swansea has cleared foreign during the week 11 "steamers 'and 2^ sailing vessels, with llt113 tons of coal and 2,365 tons of patent fuel, and 346 tons of iron. which went to Philadelphia. The coal and fuel shipments were as follows:- France, 5,177 tons Mediterranean ports, 1,760 ton, South America, 1,625 tons; Baltic, etc, 1,550 tons Ex-tern Mediterranean ports, 960 tons West Indies, 826 tons Spain, 806 tons; Africa.etc., 440 tons and Portugal, S34 tons. Newport h'-s despatched foreign during the same reriod 17 stenmers, and 24 sailing vessels, with 23,439 tons of coal, and 780 tons of iron. Of the iron 400 tons went to Pescara, 200 tons to C;¡g-Taid, :Ind 100. tons to Mauritius. The coal shipments were distributed as follows France, 6.684 tons Sptin, 3,040 tons; West Ind:eq, 2,862 tons; Eastern Mediterranean ports, 2,460 t"nj; Portugal, 2,000 tons; Mediterranean port. 1,950 tons East Indies, 1,860 tons United States. 1,510 tons; South America, 683 tons; and Africa, etc., 390 tons.

SWANSEA TRADE IREPOIIT. [SPECIAL KKPOBT FROM OCR OWN COKRK8PONDENT.1 SWANSEA, Thursday Night. The trade of Swansea during the past week has continued very bii-k in every department. The total tonnage cleared foiei/n shows an increase of 7,486 tons, or more than 50 jer cent, over t1,a.t of 1878, alia the improvement in t! e imports is equally marked. The arrivals have been good both in ballast and with cargoes, so :hat there is now a fair number of vessels in port, a id little probabi itv of any im- mediate falling off through scarcity of tonnage. 'is The coal sliit)ti,ents foreign have inere, e I from 10,368 tons the week before to over 15.000 for the current week, t' e chief items being France, 6,546 tons: Spain, 1.250 tons Ergosteria.690 tons; Corfu, 1.200 tons Sun ma, 2S5 tons; Hamburg, 1,550'tons West Indies, 1.345 tons Coquiiubo, 1,100 tons. A cargo of 542 tons fire bricks has ais be^n cleared for Riga, and 346 tons old iron for Philadelphia. The coal trade continues very firm, and prices have an upward tendency. The exports of pitent fuel have been 1,755 tons to France, and 1,173 tons Co Ergosteria. About 100 tons copper has also been cleared for France. Imports coastwise have been good, espe- cially in grain and pig iron. The entries from foreign include 1,485 tons copper ore. 1,610 tons calamine from Carloforte, 833 tons grain from New York and Prince Edward Island, 200 tons oats from St, Petersburg, and 630 to s potatoes from Hantourg 1,011 tons pit- wnod from France, 460 tons timbef from Norway, 550 tons iron ore from Bilbao, Lnd many smaller consignments. The imports of raw material, ores, &c., is steadily increasing, and as large consignments are known to be on the way may be expected to keep up for some time to come. There is nothing very new to report in connection with the tin-pla^e. Recent improvements are on the whole fully main- ta'nfd, and there is every prospect of a far more it satisfactory winter than the last.

NEWPORT TRADE REPORT. [SPECIAL REPOKT rROK OUR OWN CORRZSPONIDXIqT.1 NEWPORT, Thursday Evening.—The trade of the port continnes to improve, and if tonnage were more easily obtainable, more vould be done. The influx of loaded vessels during the week, thrush fully up to the average as far as sailing tonnage is concerned, falls short of the requirements, an l notwithstanding the fact that in some trades chartering has been active, there is no great diminution in rates even in the directions for which vessels have found most employment. The Newport Dock is fairly well supplied with shipping, and some delay has recently taken place in loading vessels, demurrage having to be paid in one or two instances, not- withstanding the coal was ready for shipment, but that no berth was to be obtained. In times like the present it would be well for the Dock Company to see that the full power of the coal staithes is used during the times of shipment. The Alexandra Dock, if not so crowded in ap- pearance, owing to the rapid movement of the steam trade, has had a large quantity of tonnage this week, in and out principally, of boats arriving without cargo, so that the operation of loading has been quickly carried out, and the steamers have again'left without delay. The river wharves are not so full of shipping, and freights coastwise are still low, offering very little inducement to owners. The exports of iron have consisted of shipments of rails for the States, and some quantities for Tampico and Sardinia. One or two other small parcels have also gone forward. ImQpits of iron ore are quiet, and principally consists of some steamer and sailing ship cargoes from Santander and Bilboa. Of pitwood the quantity arrived from France is large, but has, iu most cases, been quickly cleared off. Other imports have consisted of some cargoes of potatoes from France, two cargoes of flour from Nan:op, two cargoes of oats. one from Sweden, the other from Denmark, and one cargo of lathwood from Riga.

NEWCASTLE TRADE REPORT. NEWCASTLE-os -'1 YNE, Thursday. Tr"de pros- pects keep improving, and the incre se in business is well indicated by the improvement in the North-Eastern traffic returns, which show that the work is being done and money circulating. The coal trade keeps brisk, except for steam coil, which the closing of the Baltic trade is affectirg. The iron trade 1,. steady, and a great deal is required for shipbuilding purposes. The chemical trade maintains the advance and demand, and prices ire-sodit, 75s;bleaching, £ 612- 6d; ash, lid. less 21. These prices show an immense improvement on the quotation six weeks ago, when soda was 55s, bleaching powder £ 4 lis, and ash l|d. The trade of the district is reviving, and a distress committee recently appointed, after investigating the case submitted to them, all out of w ork beint; requellted to Melld in their nauies, report that out of the cases investigated three-fourths were un- worthy, and the committee has been dissolved, leaving* the aid to be given by the ordinary agencies. Freights keep rising, and vessels are scarce.

NORTH OF ENGLAND REPORT. [SPECIAL REPORT FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] MIDDUCSBOROCGH, Thursday. The iron trade ha* been prttty steady, and though there has not beeu much iron cban,;n- hands, the fluctuations of a week have left prices of pig metal pretty much where they were when we last reported, with the exception of a trifling improvement in some cases. The merchants having small quantities of iron, set the figures of the market, although the trade they do is of a veiy minor character. Except a few of the larger merchant*, middlemen do not hold iron to any extent worth noticing, and these larger holders are not operating just now, believing that by keeping each their iron they will do better with it later on. Ti ey are, therefore, putting it into store. This increases the price of iron by nbout 2s per ton. If, there- to e, the merchant did not iegar l the outlook as more hopeful than its present condition would lead some to conclude, they would hardly take thut course. The shipmeuts la,t week were tlie Imallu for several weeks past, and though some improvement ap, ears this week, the de- f Hveries are n->t no to the aver i^e Of what they have been rnce t ie revival #«t In, The masters, notwithstanding tin's fact, seem to tftke the eame view an the merchants. Much more now they consider will he required. not mereiy for the local trade—although that will be not inconsiderable—bat more especially for the foreign and the inland trade. It ii believed that if prices keep from 40a to 45s No. 3. that there ^ill be a good requirement for Cleveland iron for tbe Scotcn, Welsh, and general inland trades. In all three directions there has already' been an im- provement slio vn, To South Wales nearly double the usual average of this metal was shipped last month, amounting in the total to 9,269 tons. and though tl!e extra quantity to Scotland was not relatively as large, the quantity was more than usual, and amounted op to 27,23. The quotations for pig metal this week have been about 45s No. 3 by makers, and 44s No. 4 forge. Mereliatitet have been doing business at 41s to 41s 6,1 No. 3, and Is more forge qualities. The larger merchants, however, being inclined to hold their own, ask 42s No. 3, with a proportionate in- crease f, r grey forge. Manufactured iron does not show much change, though what there is is for the better, both in prices and demand. There is more inquiry for ship plates, which form now t' prinoip il pro- duction in the North of England. There are good orders for iron ships in hand., both in the Tyne and Tees. and hence the orders for plates are much more plentiful. One Middlesborough firm 1,11.8 five ships to build, one of them being for the Atlantic traale. and being of the capacity of 4,000 tons, the largest ever built in the Tees. Bars and angle iron are also more in demand. The blast- furnace and iroustone mmera' wages questions have been settled by the adoption of sliding-scale wages, to be regulated by the prices of pig iron. The prices of manufactured iron are-piates, £6 10s to JE6 15s bars, £6 2.!J_6(1; sn.des, JE6 2s 6d to 26 5s less, 2 per cent. Puddled bars k4 2s 6d nett. The steam coal trade is getting quieter with the approach of winter. The Baltic trade is about closed. There is nqt such a restriction of tonnage as was lately the ease. although more has been re- quired in other directions. Good steam coals are about 7s per ton f.o.b., ordinary coal and coke are iu more demand, and prices tend upwards. Coke 9161 to 10s 6d at the ovens.

WEST MIDLANDS REPORT. [SPECIAL REPORT FROM OUB OWN CORRESPONDENT.] BIRMINGHAM, Thurs lay.—The market this af- ternoon was well attended, and prices were firm all round. Sheet makers nevertbele8 seeking specification in fulfilment of orders before re- ceived. Boiler plates were less rarely inquired after. Common bars were firm, and a better trade was done in them. Medium bars fetched £7 5s to 27 10s. Inquiries were made on Ameri- can account for baling strip, b .t makers wanted more money than merchants would give. Very little finished iron other than marked bars could be promised this side Christmas. Pigs were strong without much business. Coal in good re- quest. BIRMINGHAM, Thursday. A good business was transacted on change this afternoon, on most of the commodities upon offer, aid there was a universal firmness in prices which made the busi- ness doing more satisfactory than for months past, Pig-iron of native manuiacture was in active re- quest, and stocks in makers' hands have decrea ed, not however generally, to an extent which brings them down to the level of ordinarv times. Best Staffordshire and Shropshire makers declined to bo<>k anv orders at less than from £ 3 10s to £ 3 15s, and £ 4 10s to £ 4 15s, for hot an<Toold bla-t sorts respectively. West cotaet hematites were firm at abo .t £4 per ton, and agents were not auxious to book orders at even this price, for they say that their principal* are already booked forward as far as they generally cars to be. so great is the demand for the product for but iron making and steel manufacture. Cinder pigs are selling in some instances at 22 10s, and part mine pigs are ad- vancing in price. The great number of American orders for hoops and strips now on- the in trket is causing hoop mi ls to be restarted that have been stauding for a long time past. Amongst these are the mills of Messrs Brown and Freer, of The Leys, Siour- bridge, hich have been idle nearly four years. The demand on United States' account for tin- plate is falling off, and of this there were this afternoon complaints by makers, who regard ros- fecta in this direction ac less favourable than of ite. IrSTI §trde» tor the Admiralty have just been turnel out at the Round Oak Iron- works of the Earl of Dudley of great weight, and composed of iron of the finest quality. His lordship's works are often en- gaged upon contracts received from the naval authorities, who are thus instrumental in helping South Staffordshire to maintain the high reputa- tion which it has l'lng enjoyed for best class iron. The demand for coal it increasing considerably, notwithstanding the Advance in price. Beconfit- and furnace coal are Felling at 9 per ton, and lumps 88 per ton. Slack is quoted at 4s per ton for best; and 38 6d per ton for ordinary qualities, loaded into bo ts, railway wagons, or carts, at the various wharves. The colliers, in some localities, are agitating for a further rise in v, ages.

THE STRIKE AT MARGAM COPPER WORKS. The i, agea dispute at these works, which a few days ago threatened to be of a serious nature, has terminated, the masters sn4 men having come to an amicable understaudisg. The men resumed work on Thursday.

DEFEATING IINEnS ON STRIKE. Two vessels have arrived i II the Clyde from Cardiff with a full cargo of coal to dischaige at Glasgow and Greenock, Two other ships ate expected daily with full cargoes. Several Clyde steamship owners are arranging for supplying the steamers with Welst) and North West of England coal, which can be bought and freighted as cheaply :as Scotch coal c <n be hnd at the shiu's side.

COLLIERS' DISPUTE. A deputation of the men oil strike at Swaithe and Eduiunl's Main Collieries met the manager on Thursday. The retult will be laid before the men for their approval. The men on strike atWombwell Main Colliery have submitted a list of [trices to the owners, and a settlement w ill probably be effected. At a meeting of miners, held at Barnsley, on Thursday, a resolution was passed con lemniug the efforts made to form a new Association, aud resolving to rally round the old Union,

THE PLYMOUTH COLLIERS. It has transpired that Mr Simpson, the general manager of the Abernnut and Plymouth Works, near Merthyr. has taken into consideration the recent application, of the men employed in the company's mines 'for a return of the 10 per cent, upon eheir wage*, which was reduced some six months* back. The deputation from the men was informed that it did not ai-pear to the company i that the time had arrived when they could accede to the request, the iact being that, notwithstand- ii g the revival of trade, work had been slacket- than usual at their pits during the last three months. An assurance ist however, given that when the state of trade should justify the em- ployers in such a step they would be quite pre- pared to reconsider the matter.

THE SWANSEA SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION. The adjourned meeting for the selection of Non- conformist candidates for the Swansea School Board took place at Ebenezer Schoolroom on Wednesday night, under the presidency of Mr E. M. Richards. The sub-committee reported the t proceedings of a previous meeting, when the names of nine candidates were recoIÍlJleuded for adoption. After considerable deba e the follow- ing gentlemen were unanimously selected by the meeting as representatives of the Noncon- formist-.— Revs. W. P. Williams, Landore, (baptist); W. Williams (Calvinistic Methodist), A. T. Parry (Baptist) Messrs R. Martin (Con. gregational), W. S. Jenkins (Congrega'ional), N. F. Richards (Congregational), J. Rower (Congregational), E. Roberts (Baptist), and C. V. Crabb (Weslevan). TLe were to be nominated if an arrangement could be made to avoid t ;e expense of a contest. In the event ef no agree- ment being arrived at, and a contest taking place, a tenth candidate. Mr Chenall (Wesleyan), would be named, and the meeting pledged itself to endeavour to secure ti e return of its 10 men.

FRACAS BETWEEN LADIES AND A CLEHUYMAN. In Dublin, on Wednesday, an action was brought by Mis-" Henrietta Diin scombe, 85. Rath- mines-road, against the Rev. William Whitty, an Episcopal clergyman. The defendant stated tha'. he was ordained in 1853. In May last year he went to re-ide with the plaintiff. He was very much annoyed ith w at took place in the house his furniture was taken away, a mahogany table taken out of his room, and a commou deal one put in it3 place, which he put outside the door. Then lodgers came from England, and his bedding was taken away. He told a Miss Ball, a ward in Chancery, that the house was not a proper place for her. Mrs Martin and Mis, Duna. combe heard him talking to Miss Ball, and they entered his room together, and began to assail him with abusive language and beat him with their fists. They struck him about the head, and threatened"to sma=h everything about the room. They fought like two Bedlamites, and he was oLligerl to put them out to save his things. He never struck Miss Dnnscombe, nor gnashed his teet i at her, nor seized her by the throat. She aimed a blow at him. and was turning round, when her foot slipped and she got a severe fall do n sever 1 stairs. She did not appear to be hurt. In cmsvexamination the rev. gentleman a lmitted that he bad written a pamphlet in which he accused Mr Justice Lawson, one of the I Church Temporaries 0»mmissioners( of forgery ou an unfortunate o rate. The jury could not agree aud the judge dncktostd them.

SWANSEA LICENSED VICTUAL- LERS' ASSOCIATION. ANNUAL BANQUET, The annual dinner of this association was held at the Cameron Hotel, Swansea, on Wednesday evening, when Mr Clare put a well appointed re- Sast upon the table. Mr Albert Worthington, lurton-on-Trent, presided, and Mr George Brad- ford, local president, took the vice-chair, while amongst the number, comprising a good atten- dance, there were noticed the Mayor, Mr Jno. Jones Jeukius, the Rev. Dr Walters, Mr Jno. Buse, Mr W. H. Crowhurst, Mr Jno. Leeder, Mr Jno. Ivor Evans, MrB. R. Harvey, Mr Wynd- liam Lawrence, Mr E. Everingham. fcc., &e. Letters apologising for and explaining absence had been received from several gentlemen, including Dr. Rogers, the ex-Mayor, Mr Dillwyn, M.P., Mr Daniels, and Mr Charles B^th. After the loyal toasts had been duly honoured, The CHAIRMAN gave The Bishop and Clergy of the Diocese, and Ministers of all Denominations," in the course of which he alluded with much satisfaction to the presence of one of the clergy. The Rev. Dr. WALTERS, rector of Llansamlet, responded. He had, he said, been associated with Swansea and the valley for more than 33 years, and it had often beeu his lot both in this town and elsewhere to acknowledge the toast which had been so kindly proposed, and which had been received with such warm enthusiasm. On his own behalf be was very much obliged t > them, and he bad no doubt that the bishop and clergy would be very much gratified to know that such a warm interest was taken in them, an 1 that such sympathy was shownthem, as the present occasion testified. He was almost sorry that he should be the only one to sometimes assume what was con- sidered the garb of singularity, and to heed not the sneering remarks or unkind expressions which had been cast against Ijiin for appearing amongst them on former occasions, but he thought they would do him the credit ofsayinar that lie had the courage of his convictions—(loud applause)—and that he was not easily frightened—(laughter and applause)—by the stereotyped invectives levelled against the body of respectable gentlemen lie saw before him, as well as against himself for associat- ing with them. He saw many present with whom he associated in other walks of life, and he was at a loss to understand how any degredation could be attached to tht-m, or to him for meeting thus around the banqueting board. (Applause.) Clergymen and ministers appeared with him at other banquets in the town, and he himself was not able to see any difference between one and the other. He could only say that the same propriety of conduct was observed here as at any other banquet. (Applause.) He was at a loss to know how it was possible to associate drunkenness n' d intemperance with the annual banquet of the Licensed Victuallers. Over and over again they had been told at their banquets that no charge had been made againstany members of the Licensed Victuallers Association during the preceding year; and it was a notorious fact that drunkenness and extreme intemperance were not carried on upon respectable premises, but upon the premises of notorious and ill-famed houses. There were three hundred members be. longing to this allBociarion, and air he had always been very glad to lend help in order to raise any institution in public estimation, he waa very much obliged to them for the invitation which they gave nim every year, enabling him to be pre- sent amongst them. (Applause.) His Worship the MAYOR gave "The Army, Navy, and Auxiliary Forces." Captains LEWIS and HUGHES responded. Mr JOHN RUBE proposed the health of The County and Borough Members," in the course of which he alluded to the absence of these gentle- men on the present occasion, adding that if they were not disposed to devote a long time to this annual meeting, they might attend and say some- thing which would very likely be of use at this time of the year. Mr WYNDHAM LAWRENCE gave "The Mayor and Corporation of Swansea," remarking that the local Council would compare favourably with that of any other town, and adding that the cavilling mostly arose from would-be members, who had not been able to gratify their ambition. In conclusion he paid a high tribute to the new Mayor, Mr Jo' n Jones Jenkins. which was followed with three cheers for his worship. The MAYOR, in reply, said the position which this country at present occupied was mainly attributable to local self-government, and he viewed with apprehension the tendency towards centralisation which existed in these days. (Hear, hear.) No serious charges, he went on to say, had been made against the licens d victuallers of the town since the last meeting. He was not one to put restrictions upon the trade, because he knew from experience wl-a difficulties publicans had to contend with-first of all, they bad them- selves to resist the temptation to get drnnk- (laughter, and hear. tie ir)-an(i secondly, they had to take care that those whom ihey served didi riot take too much. He knew that it was the desire of the majority of them to conduct their bu-ine-M in a becoming manner, to give proper refresh- ment to those who needed it, and to make their houses places for social gathering, instead of trying to make large profits oct of those who drink to excess, and cause suffering and poverty in their families. Some ten years ago he took an active part in support of a Free Library, and some of his friends—several of whom he now saw around him—told him t'at he was very foolish for doing it, while others said that he was right. His desire wle to educate the orkintr man, to te-ich Iiiiii to think for himself-not to keep him away from a public-house entirely, but to induce him to behave himself properly when there. He suggested at the last meeting that they should turn their attention to the expediency of doin: as little as possible on Sunday, and he hoped that during the next year t'iey would take seriously into consideration the question of closing entirely on Sunday, with the exception of a short time at dinner hour. He knew from Ms knowledge of the working classes, having mixed with them for a great number of years, that it was necessary at for a short time on Sun 1"y public- necessary tiiat for a short time on Sun h.y public- houses should be opened, in order that a working man might get his dinner beer. With this excep tion. he thought it would be possible to closenii the whole of the Sabbath, and he knew that a great many of them were in favour of this course. Captain LEWIS i/ave The County and Borough Magistrates," which was acknowledged by Mr BUQ8. The CHAIRMAN then proposed Co Properity to the Swansea and District Licensed Victuallers and Benevolent and Protection Association." The. society, he said. v as founded at the comparatively recent date of 1868, at which time the loc i licensed victuallers had a gre,t ipany grievances to corn) lain of. He undei stood that for some years the association flourished, but that in about three years—in 1870 or 1871-lt became rather neglected. In 1873, however, it was re-organised and re-established on a better, sounder, and more prosperous basis than it had ever rested upon before. In that year there was added the most excellent part of the License Victuallers' Asso- ciation—namely, the benevolent branch. (Ap- I plause.) He was very glad indeed to find that the association was so prosperous as to have not only J2500 In the Harbour Trust, but also JBlBO in the Glamorganshire Bank. These figures amounted to an uneven Pum, and with their per- ml"sion he should nsk them to put down the name of his firm for 50 guineas to ards the benevolent fund. (Loud applause.) As hal been already remarked, no tra,le in the world was attacked so severely as that with which they were all directly ?r 'irec'ly connected. As a rule, a man w.^s looked upon as innocent until proved guilty, but in the ense of licensed victuallers the case was exactly the reverse, for they were all regarded as dishonest until they proved themselves to be honest. (Applause and laughter.) He t bought Sir Wilfrid Lawson was the very best man they had—(laughter)—for he (the speaker) wa- nv inced that if anyone listened to the ab- surd no sense Sir Wilfrid Lawson talked, if they were teetotalers, then they would be so no longer. (Loud laiiglit-r.) He thought, lie went on, that the grant:n? of out-door licences was a very questionable good, and he should advise them to regrd with very jealous eyes the progress of that branch of the trade. (Hear, hear.) In conclusion he-alluded to the signs of irnp oved trade in this neighbourhood, and expressed the opinion that the depression wan now fast passing, or liad already passed away, (Applause.) Tiie VICE-CHAIRMAN responded, after which Mr 14ARVEY trave "the Brewers," which was acknowledged by Mr Orowhurst and others. Mr JNO. TVOR EVANS. Droposed the Town and Trade of Swansea." Mr HARVEY replied, and several other toasts followed. The company separated at 11 o'clock,

AFFAIRS IN THE EAST. BRITISH PURCHASES ON TURKISH TERRITORY. r A, correspondent telegraphs tl,at the recent cession or sale of some private property on the Black Sea, close to Constantinople, to an English 1 company, is said t > trouble the Sultan. It is rumoured, however, that the Porte, owing to its financial straits, intends to sell the Crown lands in Mesopotamia, Rumours of English endeavours to acquire territory in Asia Minor are rife at t. Petersburg. One English Company is represented as bargain- ing for land at Beckos, to construct a manufactory of arms, and at Kilios to form an harbour. An- other is stated to aspire to land atTenedos, while t^e British Government themselves are credited with the design of building a port at Arehava, near Batoum. Upon the whole this intelligence is welcomed at gt. Petersburg. As the Russiang ascribe to themselves the power to cope with England in that quarter of the world, any English settlements in Asia Minor are supposed te be so many Ruissian orportunities for victory. THE GREEK QUESTION. Orders have been given by the Porte for the withdrawal of the greater part of the troops at present stationed on the Turco-Greek frontier. RUMOURED RUSSO-TURKISH ALLIANCE. There is. our correspondent telegraphi; from Constantinople, a strong tendency on the part of the present Turkish Cabinet to enter into an IJIJj"ce with Itussia. The Grand Vizier and Osman Pasha in particular advocate the establish- ment of a close nnderstanding with that Power, and the Sultan is said to have been gained over to their views. It is whispered that, in connection with those matters, Osman Pasha will shortly proceed on a special mission to Livadia.

RAIL EXPORTS. The^ supplementary jeturu which shows the quantity and value of the iroa and steel rails ex- ported, proves that last month, for the first time for some years, there was an increase in the quantity of both classes of rails exported. For the month the exports of iron rails were 8226 tons against 7485 tons in the corresponding month of last year. The increase was due to the springing up of the demand for iron rails for the United States, 5971 tons being sent there. All other cus- tomers for iron rails show a large decrease. Of steel rails the quantity exported last month was 29,595 tons, the quantity for the corresponding month of last year being 24.640 tons. Of these steel railm, o .ing to the high duty, the United States took only 431 tons, but to British Noith America 7904 tons were sent, an increase that more than counterbalanced the falling off in the shipments to British India and to Australia. Ihe price of both classes of rails, as declared by the return, though still very low, seems slightly tend- ing upwards.
