THE LAND AGITATION IN CARDIGANSHIRE. A LAND MEETING STOPPED. The tenants of the Gog( rdda.n estate are peti tioning Sir Pry.?e Pryse, Bart., the owner, for a reduction in rents. The circular urging the tenants to boycott anyone who takes vacated farms has been repudiated on behalf of the tenants. The Nezm clfid 11el.b, Uo::ette says there is no reason for thinking that the request of the tenants for reduced rents will be compiled with, and asks what the tenants are prepared to do in order to achieve their object. A meeting was to have been held at Llanilar on Thursday night, when a lecture was to have been given on the L.ind Laws. A room had been taken, and all arrangements made, but at the !ast moment the meeting- was stopped for fear of giving displeasure to the local landowners.

SPEECH BY LORD ADERDARE. The fol'owing is a fuller report of the Letter part of Lord Aberdnre's speech :'t Manchester on St. David's Day The departmental report "Il')\ing the need of improved education had been by no means exaggerated. It showed that whilst there oughttobe,fo];owing the analogy of Kng- I&nd and Scotland, some 15,000 .students in the m'ddle-class schools, provision was made for only 2,4CO, and the attendance was considerably less. Of'course, the will of no government, the provi- sion of no sums of money, would at once inspire a population with the desire of education but he had no doubt the result of all that had been done would be that from this day we should see a steady advance in that direction. The recom- mendations made v.'ere such as could only be car- ried into effect in part by a bill to be pro- moted in Parliament, but, with respect to a part, the Government of its own autho- rity could make the necessary provision, needing only the sanction of Parliament in the ordinary way of having the estimates approved by Parliament. They knew as well as he did the diniculties of the Government, and the chances of bringing forward any measure. Hewasthoroughly persuaded that the Government were fully alive to the desirability of legislating this session. (Hear, hear.) He knew they bad prepared a measure, and he believed that measure to be an excellent one. He had been favoured with a know)edge ofitsleadingprinciples.and he thought they were such as suited the character and genius of the Welsh people, and, if fairly adopted by them, such as to secure a high ph'co for them as an educated and cultivated people. (Applaud.) But even if the pressure of pai'IiamentrU'ydifncm- t)es made it impossible to carry the measure, be ¡[;Id a sanguine hope that the Governinjnt would be able to commence the work during the present session by the exertion of the powers they now possessed, and that alone would give them a considera.blo start. They li-.id to create among t!)eir countrymen a higher sense of what education consisted in than they now possessed, and that was one of tlj,r ditliculties. What struck him very much was that there was far more proof of the existence of a desire for education among the younger people who needed this education than there was on the part of their parents. He quite with wlút had been ,uid a3 to the necessity of acting by me2.l1S of endowment. He believed that whilst the Contribution of each student at the Owens College was .815 per annum, the cost of education to the co!!ege was at least .640. The contrast was far greater in the small eoHegc at Aberystwith. This showed the neces- sity of some assistance being given if they wanted to educate their !ni<*d!e class, especially the lower middle class, on A large scale in this country. The committee did not undertake to say whether Aberystwith College should not be con- tin ued as a coHegf for North Wales and that part of South immediately adjoining; but in respect to South Wale-) they had no hesitation in saying that a coDcge ought to be provided at S\vansea oral Cardie. The latter town was tak- ing the advance in liberality of the subscriptions, and he had no doubt that whichever town was se}.ectd they would hl1\ from parts of South Wales subscriptions that would enable them to start the college advantageously. It was one thing to Htart but he JlO means of iiiaiii ',tiiiiig it except by an appeal to the Imperial purse or local r n tlteii- report the put all these various alternatives fairly before the Government, and the Government would have to decide. That the result would be of immense ad- vantage to Wales he did not for a moment doubt. (Applause.)

SAUNDERSFOOT SCHOOL BOARD. At a meeting of this Mr Bancroft pro posed that this board petition in favour of Swan- sea as the piace for the proposed college, which was carried, the fecling that, us it W¡\8 hkely to be a technical and scientific college, Set was 1110:3t suitè1.ble, situated in the '-s as Nve',l as iii,);it ceiiti-al for t )f N%,oi' South Wales. Mr Bancroft argued that Pem- brokeshire was a part of Vi ;1";3, and that a college at would b'J ii,) boon for coili,,t v, that persons from this part could reach Bristol at a cheaper rate than Cardiii'. The feeling was unaniuwu:sJy in favour of Tlji., boai-d rCI)r,cnts three parishes.

LLANGUICKE SCHOOL BOARD. At It Jlleeting of this board, oil the of Mr J. Heynon, seconded by the Rev. D. Jones, vicar, it was unanimously agreed to memoriflise the Go\'ermuent in Î.t';our of fixing Swallsea as the celltrLl }Jo"itioll in South for the proposed college. The seal of the board was <jrd';rcd to be atiixed to the memorial.

THE COEDCAE COLLIERY DISASTER. a; THE ADJOURNED INQUEST. On Friday Messrs George Overton tmdH. LL Grover, coroners for the Cardiff and Merthyr dM- tcicts respectively, resumed the joint inquiry at I the New Inn Hotel, Pontypridd, mto the cause of the death of Gsorge Barlow, Jttcob Thom&a, Benjamin James, James Rowlands, Thomas Wil- liams, and James Howell Lewis, at Lewis's Navi- gation, Merthyr, or Coedcae Steam Colliery, on the 17th of February, under circumstances already reported. There were again present at the pro- ceedings, besides a. number of leading colliery managers, who felt interested in what took place, and a large number of witnesses, Mr Wales, Government Insuector of Mines for the South WaJes district; Mr Trehame Rees, the deputy inspector; Mr W. Abraham (Mabon), Pentre, miners' representative and Messrs W. Ihvi.es, Coedcae, and W. Howel!, Great Western CoHiery, who attended specially on behalf of the Rhondda district of miners. Mr Lewis Morgan, postmaster and grocer, Ha.vod, v.'ho resided about 100 yards from the C )cdca.8 pit, said that at about seven o'clock on t'llJ night of the llth u!t. (the date of the ex- p'o-don), while standing at the door, he saw sparks and name. coming up from the forecast pit mouth. In a few minutes afterwards he went to the pit top. Looking down he saw the two men, Wariow and Thomas, a)! aname, on the top of the stage or carriage (he could not say which), about 20 yards down. He could see one man-the lower part of the body, plain enough. A strong I smell of paramn came up through the pit. Shortly afterward Meyrick Jenkina, the engine man, came to the pit top. Witness asked him why he did not iise the carriage up. Jenklas repJIed that he could not do so because the carriage was fast to the pit side. Witness's shop was then had recourse to, in order that a.s many buckets as possible might be got to extinguish the fire with water. The buckets were got, but the night was so dark that it was impos- sible to find out where the water was. Witness heard a crash, looked down the pit again, saw the men stil! ablaze, and also sa.w a lot of what he believed to be planks falling down into the pit all a/name. Witness saw nothing more at the pit, and left. He heard the report of a.n explosion half an hour later 0:1, as lie wa?s standing on the pavement in front of the house. He did not he.u* more than one explosion report. Mr 0 verton There is one point which I wish to have cleared. You say that yousaw planks burning and falling down the pit. We do not was the case. Did you see a-nyth'ng falling down distinctly ? Witness Yes, I saw something burning like sticks tumbling one against the other down. I saw them myself, with my own eyes. Mr Overtone But the stage was brought up whole after that, and there were no byatts there, at that distance. (To the jury) WeH, gentlemen, perhaps you can account for thig, but it seems to me that we have not had any evidence that there were any planks that could fall down from the pit. Mr G rover said that the impression of witness upon the matter could not be altered. Mr Wales Are you quite sure as to the smell of p?.ramn ?—Yes. I have been smelling paramn for the last 20 years, a.nd I ought to know the smell. (A laugh.) Mr Abraham Did you see Warlow that even- ing before the explosion took place ?-No. At this juncture James Manning, the ba.nks man, v.? re called, and, in reply to Mr Overton, said that he could not give any account at all of Benjamin James, nor did he notice the lad Lewis (twoof the six killed). Mr Overton You say that Warlow was on the t"p of the pit from two o'cjoek—the time when you wpitt there, I think ?—He did not continue there he was about—on and off. Tho evidence which witness had given on Thurs.lay relative to Warlow was here road over by Mr Overton, who then asked witness :—Had you reason to suspect that Warlow went to a public-house? I suppose there was a public-house near ?—I cannot say, sir. Did he not go to a, public-house? Don't you know?—No,indeed,sir. Mr Ovetton: He went away from the pit repeatedly, backwards and forwards ?-Yes. Mr Ovenon Did he stay any time before he came back to you ?—Sometimes he walked about. Mr Overtou You see there were four hours t and a half—ha! f a day nearly, from two o'clock to the time Warlow went down with the other ma.u don't you know whether be went to a pubJic-houseornot?—No. Mr Overton asked witness whether he had on th° preceding day stated whether Warlow was sober ?-He (War!ow) may have had beer, but he was none the worse for duty. Mr Overton Is a man, then, when he has beer in him, fit for duty ?—I don't think he had any too much, sir. He seemed quite sober to me. Mr Overton The man you thought quite sober?—Yestome—in my eyes. laawnothing wrong with the man. Mr Overtou: Have you always made the same statement—or rathe: let me put it to you in another way. Have you not stated to many people that he was tipsy ?—Yes, sir; but I did not understand the word when he .-poke to me. Mr Overton Who ?—The "editor" of the paper (glancing at the representative of the South Wales .L)(t;ly.LVeu-s.) Mr Overton Well, what did you tell the editor of the paper?-He a.-)ke(I me in q6 %hotlier Ie wts, and I (lid not ttke. the word, I said "Yes;" but before lie went ItoIdh]m"No." .I Mr Overton Did you tell anybody else ?—No, sit'. Mr Overton What did you s?y—did you .sa.y thath3(War!r;w) was drunk?—No, sir; I done think thatlsaid that. Mr Overton Tell me as near as you can what you told him?—I believe that what I said was that I thought that he (Warlow) looked worse for oeer Uun Jacob did. Air Overton Was Jacob a little gone, too ?- \'ot that I ],,low of, ,;ir. Itin'ik,too,thatl added that he (Warlow) was the worse for drink ct the 54aiii, time. Thoconversation tuok pL\ce on the Sunday morning. The Foreman of the Jury (Mr Edwards): We should like to know who was wit!) the reporter when he (Manning) made that statement. Mr Johns the policeman There were two reporters there. Mr Abraham He (Manning) said yesterday, on o3.th, that he asked the reportfr of the .S'ox.j'A TValcs Du.iI;! Neirs to withdraw from the paper something that appeared respecting Warlow. He says this morning that he asked the reporter to withdraw what he (Manning) hat! said previously, before it had gl)n iuto the paper. Which of the two statements are we to credit? Mr Gruver said that what he had understood Manuing on Thursday to say was that he had asked the reporter to withdraw a statement which he (Manning) had made to him—this being before publication. Mr Wales The man states what he now sta,tcs on his oat!). Mr Abraham But he .said the reporter did not comply with his request. Did the undcr-manager give him (Manning) auy orders not to let any people go down the pit during the time that the fan was stopped ?—I did not hear it. He did not tell me I g* Mr Abraham Did you know for yourself that the fan "as to be stopped P—Yes. Mr Overton Have you authority to put any- body down the pit as you like ?—No, sir. Mr Grover There is a rule bearing on that (ru)e produced). You cannot aUow anybody not belongm; to the colliery to go down the pit with- out the manager's orders ?—No, sir. Mr G rover You can allow anybody connected with the colliery to go down ?—Yes, sir. Overton wa:; of opinion t,hat witness pro- pcrly construed the meaning of the rule re- ferred to. Mr Wa!es Do you know that Jacob had had any drink ?—No. Mr Warlow: Then when you said that Warlow had I):T.d more drink than Jacob you did nut mean that Jacob had had drink?—No, sir. Mr Wa.Ies That had better be put down, for it .l )iild be a p'ty that it should go forth that both had'h'ink. (To fitness): As far as you know, Jacob had had no drink?—No, sir, as far as I a.;u The Coroner asked the jury if they would like to have the testimony of P.S. Johns n.t once with rCfprd to the cuWJitioD of Theyoreman:Ycs,sir. P.S. John?, Hopkinstown, then said The col- liery—Coedcae—is in my district. I was on duty on the Sunday morning referred to (the day after the explosion) near the pit on the road, when Mr Hughes, the reporter of the S,,uth Ifoles Daily l'tu; and another took down the statement of the ls.st witness, Manning. After Mr Hughos had had all particulars of Man- ning, he k\ked him, "Can you tell me in what state the men were —Warjow and the other man who went down with him—as regatds drink ? Manning said they were drunk, but \Va.rIow was theworst. Mr Overton You are confident of that? Witness Yes, I am quite con6dcnt, because I was quite close to Irm (Manning), and listening to every word he had to say about it. He further told me afterwards, I don't believe it would have occurred if ho had been sober." Mr Overton When was that?—At the same time. I was in conversation with him, asking him how far lie blown, Mr Overton: Was this shortly after?—About that time, sir. He told me afterwards I don't believe this would have occurred had they been 8ubel". The Coroner: Is Manning present now ? Be- cause I think if he is i.nre he ought to have an opportunity of asking him (witness) any questions. A Juryman When John was called Manning went out. I think he ought to have stayed. Manning, however, almost immediately returned, and Mr Overton read over to him the evidence of Sergeant Johns, and asked him if the statement made by the otBcers were correct ?— W itness I don't deny having used the words, but I did not mean it." I was not in a fit 8t.tte that morning to give any report. Mr Overton Well, I only asked you what you sai('. Mr Grover (ad verting to the last sentence used bv M a.nning) What did you mean by saying that you were not in a ttt state?—Because I was irightenedsomuc!). Replying to further questions, witness re- marked—1 don't meaji that I was the worse for hquor iityself. The Coroner You mean you were so upset ?- Yes,sir. The Coroner That is your excuse for having said it ?-It is, sir. The Coroner Do you still adhere to what you said on oath—that they (the men) were fit to go down In the shaft ?—Yes, sir. Mr Overton asked the jury whether they would desire Mr Hughes to give evidence as to what Manning had said. The jury nignined in the amrmative. Mr T. J. Hughes (South Wales 7)«t/.f/ News re- porter) was then sworn, and said that lie had made inquiries of Manning the morning after th 6. Coed ca.u disaster as to what had occurred. There were present at the time Mr Daviei (the repre-,Pezitatite of the JVfsf.t'n l,.[wi1), Sergt..Juhn, and others.

I wa.s next signalled to lower the me" below tliebyatts. They stopped there for a short' time, and were then towered dow to the curb.

I endeavoured to 'B* form hiin that the carria$" was fast, but I failed and then put the sooam brake on. I ran to the top of the pit and informed him that the cage WSO fast. Then I looked down and could see that tb< planks of the stage were on fire. I went to the engine-house and did not come out :fterward& ¡ The carriage at this time was fast to the bvatta. Mr Ovcrton lviipt did you hear of the explo- sion ?—] only heard the report, but saw nothing- Mr Overton Do you know of anvthmg with regard to anding the men ?—No, .sir I had DO' thing to do in that. Mr Whales Whan Warlow went down, did he tell you that the fan was on stop P—Xo, sir bat I knew that th" fan was on stop. In the intervsJ that he was with me he informed me that the fa" was to stop during the afternoon. Thomas Morgan, fitter atCoedcae, gave format evidence. At the time the fan was on stop no oo< had authority to go down the pit. The pitma" had not got that authority. Witness .aw A-N7.trlovv the morni.ig of the explosion, and told him that the fan was going to be stopped as soon as tb< ostler came up. Th<JInas Criffiths, asistr-lt m:111:1ger, On the day of the explosion I \1: on duty tua about half-past four, and then went home. About 7 p.m. I was cnHed out of the house, and told that something had taken place in the p=t. After this! went to the engine-house to the fan to see ho? went to the engine-house to the fan to see bovl they were coming on with the engine there, and found they were working busily. Then I we0< into the arch under the upper landing, and went on to the carriage and saw the two me!* burning, quite naked, on top of it. I cried Ion out for soms water to throw over the bodies and the stage, which were both on fire. Then I wa: able to put out the tire as far as possible. I wa* making my way from the archway to th< top of the pit when the explosion occurred. Heplying to inquiries from the coroner, witness said that he on Friday night gave orders to the night foreman that no one should go down the pM after the ostlers came up on Saturday aftc-rnooa, a,s the fan was going to be stopped. He sa%V Warlow about the pit at about half-past four, and toid him that the fan was g?ing to be stopped, and that he ml,"t not go down that night. Mr Abu ham asked witness if lie had taken any steps to prevent Warlow going down?—No< bscause he always did what I told him. Mr Abraham Did you give any orders to th< banksman that nohodv was to go down ?—No. Mr Abraham The'rule says that h-.) (the undef manager) should prevent him". Mr G rover: he told hint not to go: he eonid not be expected to prevent hiot bodily. Mr Abraham I think you might fairly ex- pect him to tc!l the b:mbm:1Il that he was to tell him not to let anybody go down. Mr Grovf-r 'f)¡;,t is a question for the jury. Mr Wales H¡" you a blov.er in the down' cast shaft ?—Yes, in Uie 2ft. 9iii.,about 300 yard* from the surface.

Mr Reea continued :—The 6r9 damp winch exp!od?d had accumulated, I think, m consequence of the stoppage of the fan.

KNIGHTOX SPECIAL SESSIONS. SCENE IN COURT. At the Kni\lhtnn PI)]jc-c"llrt, on Thursday, James Hostock Uuhe, t", of Badiand, Otd Kadnor, farmer, was summonHd by Inspector Rogers fo< b"ill drunk and riotous in Bridge-street, Knighton, <jn the 16th inst. Mr Corner, of Here- ford, appeared for defendant, and took objection at tho commencement of the case to the form in which the summons was drawn, aud this the magistrates amended. Ai'ter this was done, M< Corner asked Mr Grecu, magistrates' clerk, if h< was interested in the case, and, if .so, he (Mjf Corner) would object to Mr Green sitting. Alt Green said he was not interested, but would re- tit-e, which he did. P. C?E vans was then caHed, and said on the 16th February I saw the defendant in Bridge- street, opposite the Swan Hole!. He was drunk, &nd creating..), great noise—swearing and shouting. I went up to him, and told him to kcev ciiiiet. Ha said he did not care for me, or any man in the town. He waited till hi.! trap came out of the Swan yard. Several people were attracted. When the trap came up there was a good deal of persuasion used before he would get up. I have known defendant about 12 years. Cross-examined by Mr Corner No one com- plained to me. I saw defendant start. I can't say whether he drove. I don't know who wajs with him. Defendant was staggering about the road, fu.d I caught hold of his arm. The crowd began to coHect when I went up. No one com- plained. There were 10 or 12 there. He told me he did not cure for me. I did not see Morg&n there. He staggered a yard or two. He lost his balance. I went up to him. He was drunk. Mr Whceldon, the chief-constable, here put t ( several questions to the witness, to which Mr Corner objected, and said the chief constable was prompting the witness. This the chief-constable denied, a.nd said he was not interfering with the witness. Mr Corner then P,id he was and that he (Mr Corner) had met many chief consta.b!es, but not one to equal Chiff-constable Wheeldon. The bend) here interfered, and said these remarks were out of place, and that the police force of Radnorshire was n, respectable body of men, and that Chief-constable Wheeldon was a most respectable man and otncer. Mr Corner again asked the chief-constable not to interfere with the wincss, and the chief-con- etable denied that he had, and begged Mr Corner to go on wit!) the case, and attend to his client's interests. Mr Corner replied that he would attend to hi< client's interest, and go on with the case, if the chief-conotable would mind his own business. Mr Corner and the chief-constable still continu- ing to argue, the magistates again interfered, and sa?d they could not allow the case to go on. Mr Jcnkins (magistrate) said Mr Corner had nrst insulted their clerk, next the chief-constable, and nnaily the bench. Captain Bovan concurred in these remarks, and said that the c.t:,e would be adjourned till next court, and intimated that other magistrates would try it. Mr Corner repudiated having insulted the bench or their clerk, and said he had not insulted aUYOIl8.

SATURDAY, 4, 188/2. PARLIAJMENTARY ELECTIONS BILL. A BiLL introduced this session by Messrs I LLOYD, DiLLWYN, and CoBLEN to amend the law relating to Parliamentary elections has I just been printed. It deals with two great evils which have wrought incalculable mis- chief in a. vast number of Parliamentary con- tests, especially on polling days. Tlie nrst clause of the bill deals with the universally condemned custom ot canvassing, one of those evils which are the more to be de- plored because it seems well nigh impossible to put an end to them. We believe that canvassing has very gene- rally been denounced as a nuisance both to the canvasser and to the person whose "vote and interest are solicited, but when- ever we come to the practical question in- volving the means by which it is to be put down, we strike up against an iron post which prohibits further movement onwards. But while we make this statement we arc not prepared to assert that it is quite im- possible to put an end to the evil, much 1-jsa that we need not or ought not to en-' dcavour to annihilate, or, if that be impossible, to minimise it. Not only do we not object to try the experiment, but we are prepared heartily to back up any measure likely to prove even partially suc- ces"fnl. The bill to which we have just re- ferred proposes to make it illegal, under a penalty "f fifty pounds, for any candidate before or during any parliamentary election, or for any agent employed by him "for re- \var 1, to ask for or solicit a promise from any vot'jr, or even to inquire for whom ho intends to vote. Nor shall it be la'.vful for such parties to call for such a purpose at any houses, count- ing houses, workshops, or places of business or to attempt by letter, circular, or otherwise to persuade a voter to give a written promise to vote one way or another. This clause, it will be observed, proposes to put an end to paid canvassing, and therefore to the most objectionable form in which the mischief is at present in active operation. Now, it cannot be denied that even is a I reform worth accomplishing, and therefore the Bill in question is so far worthy of sup- port. But every one knows that the evil of canvassing extends far beyond the limit here described. One result of its adoption would be that in constituencies in which a candidate ¡ may have the advantage of being personally well known, he would have an innnitely better chance than a much more suitable man who may be a stranger to the electors. The favourite might have a whole army of voluntary canvassers, while the stranger would have almost no opportunity of ingra- tiating himself with those who have the right to vote. Why not abolish systematic can- vassing altogether ? It is easy to pretend that no payments are made, and yet*thc re- ward for time and labour expended may be none the less sure. We quite approve of the clause so far as it goea, but cannot help thinking that it would be greatly improved by being so modified as to take a much more comprehensive view of canvassing. The second clause prohibits the employment of paid agents for the purpose of soliciting pro- mises for or against a candidate and the third clause prohibit ''a landlord by himself or by his agent'' to ask any of his tenants to on way or another, or how they mean to vote. Employers of labour also come under this prohibition. The fourth clause mi-mates that "nothing herein con- tained is to apply to any public meeting or to any circular, address, or other writing containing a statement of a. candidate's political views only. All this, we add, is satisfactory so far as it goes, we should like to draw the atten- tion of Mr DiLLWYX and other earnest and 1 intelligent reformers to an evil which such a ) bill as the one in question in no way touches. In Cardiff it is a crying evil, and a disgrace to tliose wlio encourage it, and It it is high time that men aiming at the independence of the elector and the purity of elections should unite iu putting it down. We refer to that species of bribery, corruption, and intimidation which can be employed without any reference to or making any use of canvassing. Lately we have had it abundantly illustrated in tlie dock cry raised in Cardiff. We should like to know how long it shall be lawful for agenta, whether paid or not, to assure the electors in a ward or in a borough that un- less they for certain candidates, a dock bill or other measure will be withdrawn, or that a certain dock will not be built. This is the device of the Conservative party in Cardiii'. On every occasion of an election the people are assured that their bread and cheese will depend upon a certain candidate being returned, that Lord BuTR ia prepared to do aome great thing, but that, unless men nominated by a certain clique arc returned, ha will not do it, and consequently hun- dreds of thousands of pounds will be lost to the town. ThH speclea of wholesale can- r vassing or Intimidation, or whatever It may be called, is the curse of Cardin' at every election. In many towns the mere shadow I of such an attempt to buy votes or to overpower a voter's sense of duty would be resented as a gross Indignity, and we hope to see the day when every Liberal In Cardiff will treat with scorn and contempt those who Imve recourse to such devices. But wliy should such artiuces be allowed ? Why should it be lawful for any man to tell a constituency that if they want a new dock, or wish to see a scheme started which will give employment to hundreds of thousands, they must vote for such and such a man ? We Iiope Mr DlLLWYN and other reformers will look at this form of the evil against which they have, so to speak, begun a crusade, and include in their Bill. They will by so doing render an unspeakable service to the cause of electoral reform. The sixth clause of the Parliamentary Election Bill prohibits the hiring or using of rooms in a public-house for committees or any other purpose connected with an dec- tiou. This Is not intended, of course, to prevent a candidate or his agent from using '-a hotel as any ordinary guest. There is not much to be said upon this 6ili clause ia on<} ofths of which we do not feel a,t all aure. It provides for the closing of public houses within a mile of any polling-booth during th& hours of poll- ing. and if it stopped here it would be intel- ligible, whether satisfactory or not, but it makes an exception which,'in our estimation, will make a mess of the whole clause. It provides for the closing of such houses, except for the purpose of supplying reasonable refreshments to persons resid- ing at a distance of not less than two miles from such polling place." Now, it is hardly necessary to point out the evident weakness of such an arrangement. What, for instance, are "reasonable refreshments ?" And who Is to determine what, within the limit of rea- son, may be supplied to this man or to that ? What is reasonable in the case of one would lay another man aside for six months. And yet neither of them might get drunk over the refreshment. Decides, why make a I distinction between one weary or hungry or thirsty individual and another ? Some men who have walked only one mUe are more in need of refreshment than others who may have walked 10 miles. Then, again, how is a publican to know how far away a man lives, or whether the place he says he has come from is two miles or only one and a half distant frcm the polling- booth? We do not state these difficulties with a view to prove the absurdity of closing public-houses on the polling-day, but we are of opinion that it would be much better to close them to all or open them to all. This is the only fair way of dealing with the drink dimculty. There is no principle in a provision which gratifies the appetite or provides for the comfort of a man who lives two miles away, but refuses it to one who has had to travel within a few yards of the siiiiie distance.

TO THM EDITOR. Sn',—1 perceive. In your issue of yesterday a letter signed One of the Committee," referring, I presume, to certain statements made by me at the public conference of the inhabitants of South W ales held at Swansea on the 3rd ult., which he characterises as blunders. The needless mention of my name and statements gives me an oppor-- tunity of reiterating what I then said, and further, of relling the public that my ngures were taken from returns presented to Parliament, and which cannot be gainsaid. The following extract from my speech, as printed m the ClCmuri,(n of the lQt.h ult. is, as to correctness of figure's, unques- tionable :— in the first place, he would remark that the area of the Cardiff superintendent registrar's 'district is 81,754 acres, whe:'eps the acreage of Swansea district is only 25,696, so that the acreage of Swansea is not equal to one-third of Cardiu'. Consequently, when a comparison was drawn as to the population in each district, it was not drawn upon a fair basis. If the same area round Swansea as round Cardiff were taken, a totally different state of things would oe ti-rived at from what \a;; conveyed in the circular referred to. If in the Swansea district were included not only the 25,000 acres comprised in the superintendent's district, but an area similar to that of Cardiff, it would be seen the population of Swansea was not 65,000, as stated in the circular, but 128,842. Swansea proper had :111 of 25,696 acres, with a population of 95,053 eastern Cower, as a. registration sub- Iwd [\11 aci-eige of 21,353, and a tion of 8,250 Ncath likewise had an acreage of 20,135 ocres, and a population of 21,524 and one-fifth of Poht.u'dawe, which would be included, had an acreage of, say 15,000 acres, ai.d a popuhttiou of '1,000, making a total acreage ¡ of 80,737, and a. total population of 128,8+2) ex- ceeding Cardiff by over 22.000.—1 am..&c., JOHN JONES JEN KINS.
