BILL—THE KECENT REVELATIONS FFBLIC MEN Dt- PLICATED—MR. LABOUCHELE ALSD THE DUKE OF CAIIBIIIICY, — SIR GEORGE CAMPBELL'S DECANTER—A BEERE.SEIXG PRECEDENT. LONDON, Monday Night. A brmist rumours are current by which it if; represented that a peaceful solution of the- Afghan boundary question is endangered by the attitude of Lord Salisbury. I. have good reason to believe that this is exactly as true as was the rumour which preceded it, ailiniiing a determination on the part of Russia to bring about a war. I believe that these rumours are purely of Stock Exchange certainly, as far as Lord Salisbury is concerned, it requires very little knowledge of the drift of affairs m England to perceive its absurdity. However much Lord Salisbury Wight desire war with Russia (and there has been as yet no sign that vapourings out of office have not resolved themselves into space, now that he is in a responsible position) ho dare not wantonly force it on, even if war were ,declarcd, and be quite innocent or needlessly inviting it. It would be a very poor preparation lor a general election. It is no discredit to the Govern- ment to say that just now all their policy .is directed with an eye to the general election. Any Government in the same poni/t ion would follow the same ministerial traditions. The best card Lord Salisbury can play will be to bring the frontier question to an amicable solution at the earliest possible moment, and fchen go to the country with the old cry of peace with honour." There is one device the Government have in hand winch if fortunately terminated will certainly add to their popularity. They are now making avran ements for the relief of the garrison ot Kassala. The gallant defenders have excited the admiration not only of England, but of the world, and all parties will rejoice if their heroism finds its just reward. Circumstances have suddenly become most favourable for the enterprise. It is believed in official circles that the Malidi i;, really dead. Thus the Wioving force of the revolt in the Soudan is broken. But lately the garrison achieved a brilliant anddecisive victory over their assailants. These things combined make the case very different to what it was J|P to a mouth ago, when even Lord Salis- bury would not have ventured to recommend « British expedition. There is now no inten- tion of sending British troops. Either the ^•hy3siniana or Italians will be invited t) undertake the feat of relieving the gar- rison. The relations established with the King of Abyssinia by the late Government ftiake it easy to arrange the matter with Bu the Italians, being at Assouan, are nearer. Unfortunately the Italian Government are not so well disposed to- wards Lord Salisbury as they were towards his predecessors. But by hook or by crook, by Abyssinians or by Italians, it is decided that Kassala shall be relieved. Earl Granville is well known to be a man ?f equable temperament. There is only one distance on record where he acted in a peremptory manner possibly indicating loss of temper. This was at the Congress dealing with the Egyptian question. As president he refused to sanction any more shilly- shallying, and declared the sittings closed. The other happened to-night, when the Earl of Mill town coolly proposed to move the second reading of the Medical Relief Bill on Thursday. Failing any action on the part of the Ministry, Earl Granville, as leader of th.e Liberal party in the House, had deter- mined to move the second reading at to- morrow's sitting. In the second place, he Resented the action of an obscure Conserva- tJvc peer like Lord Milltown rushing m "here Lord Salisbury feared to tread, *Hid he was indignant at what looked "ke a covert attempt to destroy the bill by delaying it. At this time of the every day is of importance, and Wantonly to put off the second reading of a Measure which may possibly bring the two Houses into collision looks a little sinister. That Lord Milltown should persist in face of the claim of Earl Granville to take charge of the bill gives some importance to to the episode. It is believed that the noble earl would not upon his own responsibility, assume such an unusual attitude. A very painful sensation is created in the House of Commons by circumstantial re- ports persistently current connecting with recent scandals the names of several distin- guished public men. This gossip is so un- restrained that it seems impossible that matters should remain as they are. The persons concerned cannot fail to hear what is being said ot them, and must of necessity call the scandal-mongers to account. On the other side, if there be any foundation for the reports on the face of them, incredible political animosity may be counted upon to carry matters to a pitch at which, what is whispered through- out the lobbies of the Houap of Commons, will be openly slated, and, it is to be hoped, conclusively refuted in a court of justice. On a recent occasion the Duke of Cam- brid"e visited the continent, and, in accord- ance with custom, a special steamer was hired for his accommodation at a cost of £40. This £ 40 it is proposed to draw from the Imperial exchequer hut the lynx eye of Mr Labouehere has fallen upon the item, and he intends to make a stand against it. He is the more eager to seize this opportunity as it talis in with his recent criticisms on the Continual expenditure upon the royal yachts. When debating this subject the other night h Labouchero frankly said he had no objection to the Queen having as many i'achts as might be necessary for her comfort and convenience. What he objected to was that there were five of these yachts kept UP at a very considerable expense to the nalion, and they were very rarely Used. He looks forward with sanguine expectation to moving the House of Com- mons to declare itself upon this particular incident, that whilst large sums of money are voted every year for royal yachts, the Duke of Cambridge, when he goes to Calais, must needs have a special steamer, and that the nation must pay s or it, hut nothing will come of it. it is no new thing, and it hag been argued year after year without any result being reached. There is undoubtedly astrong feeling, not contined to one side of the House, that from various positions of view ths expenditure is indefensible. Hie Dui-.e oi Cambridge, like IMrs John Gilpin, though on pleasure bent," is of a lrugal mind," and when he take3 a tripe to the Continent thinks rightly or Wrongly that he should have his expenses paid, it would obviously be more satisfac- tory to pay for a state cabin in an ord-nary p&isenger boat than for a special a lea. mar. Since questions were over the House has been eugagod in supply. On tile army osti- -'>.I,1'i:\ (,'1>11,1.11 uiates ;-ii struck in and made a speech of prodigioU3 length.

Even this does not fully reveal the ravages of the fearful scourge, as the returns lrom five provinces had not come to hand at the time the return was compiled. The province of Logrouo, which had hitherto been free, has now been attacked, a few cases being reported from thence this morning. Some curious experimeuts are being made to litliy the spread of the disease. In Saragossa, where the scourge is makinar dreadful ravages the military authorities have distributed four guitars to each company of sold.ers in the place under the idea that the distraction produced oy playing oil this popular instrument will tend to raise the spirits of the troops and render them iess liable to fall victims. In the barracks of Saragossa the tinkle of the guitar is heard iucussantly through- out the livelong day.

SUNDAY CRICKETING AT LEICESTER.
SUNDAY CRICKETING AT LEICESTER. The Secular Cricketers resumed play on Abbey Recreation Ground, Leicester, on Sunday morn- ing, but were stopped by the police. They again stole a march on their opponents by pitching their wickets as early as half-past nine, when few people were about. As soon as they commenced practice a police sergeant ordered them to desist. They asked upon whose authority. The sergeant replied Oil his own authority. The cricketers refused to draw their stumps unless he could produce better authority, and resumed play. A constable placed himself between the wickets, upon which they were moved a little aside but soon afterwards he was struck by a ball on the foot. The sergeant then went in front of the wicket, and was immediately afterwards struck in the back with some force by another ball. He thereupon pulled up the stumps and left the field, telling the cricketers they might have them by applying at the police- station. The cricketers declared the police had stolen the stumps, "iind left the ground. The stumps were afterwards sent back to the secretary of the Secularists, who now threaten to prosecute the police for taking the stumps and depriving them of the right ot playing on Sundays.

THE MEDICAL RELIEF BILL.
THE MEDICAL RELIEF BILL. A NOVEL POINT, The Medical Kelief Disqualification Removal Bill was brought ill and read a first time, and then Earl MILLTOWS gave notice that on Thursday next he would move that the bill be read a second time. Earl GnASvlLLE gave notice that ho would move the second reading of the bill to-morrow. The Earl of MILLTOWN had no objection to meet the wishes of the noble earl, and would put the bill down tor to-morrow. Earl GRANVILLE expressed his surprise at the action of the noblo earl, who really bad nothing to do with the bill. The Earl of MILLTOWN said he supposed he had the same right to take up the bill as any other peer. Earl GRANVILLE said the bill had been brought into the other House by the Government, and abandoned by them when in committee, whereupon it had been taken charge of by the leaders of the Liberal party. It was, conse- quently, one of the most unprecedented things lie could remember since he had been in the House of Lords for the noble Earl opposite to take up the measure under such circumstances. He would meet the position taken by the noble earl by pro- posing to move the second reading of the bill to- morrow. (Opposition cheers.) The Earl of MILLTOWN said the action of the noble ehrl was entirely out of order, his own notice, he thought, having been given rirst, it snoukl remain iirst. After a few words from the Earl of llosebery, Earl GEANVILLB said that it was very unde- sirable that there should be any quarrel over the matter, but he certainly thought he had some title to move the second reading of tho bill accord- ing to the usual practice in such cases. The matter then dropped. OUU ARMAMENTS. Lord NAPlEB of MAGOALA asked whether it would not be desirable to appoint a itoyal Com- mission to consider the present condition of the armaments and munitions of war in the United Kingdom and the colonies, and what additions were necessary to meet any emergency or hostile combination. Lord BURY, speaking for the Government, said the subject already occupied the serious attention of the Government, and they hoped ere long to be able to arrive at a satisfactory settlement. There were, he added, a suriiciont number of lielu guas in hand to enable the Government to send a con- siderable supply to India at once it required. They had acquired several new batteries this year, and there was machinery capable of turning out otabrs at it considerable late, They were fairly off in seige guns, in which source of war strength they were impro-ving. As to small arms, Maitiui-Henris were now being nianulactured at the rate of 3,000 a week, and in October next would be proUuued at the rate ot 4,000 a. week, while in case of necessity, by working night shifts and in other way, this number could be nearly doubled. As the Secre- tary for War was giving his best and undivided attention to the wiioie subject, he hoped the matter would not be further pressed at the present moment. The subject then droppad. A QUESTION OF PRECEDENCE. Earl GRANVILLE asked whether the Earl of Miiitown intended to adhere to the notice he had given with reference to the Medical Relief Dis- qualification Removal Bill. The course the noble earl had taken was very unusual, and he doubted whe iier it had ever been taken before. As far as lie (Earl Granville) was aware, the noble earl had not been requested by anyone to take up the bill, whereas he (Earl Grauvilie) had been requested by Sir Win, Harcourt and Mr Jesse Codings to take charge of it. The Earl of MILLTOWN could not see what c airn the noble earl had to the bill. It contained a provision that was not in the bill of the late Government, and he had taken it up as an inde- pendent peer who was in favour oi that provi- sion. He might say that he had had no commu- nication with the Government on the subject. Earl GRANVILLE said, as he understood the noble earl had not been asked by the Government tu take charge of the bill, he (Earl Granville) should adhere to his notice to move the second reading to-morrow. Under the standing orders, he was in the right, as he had given notice for to-morrow, and the noble earl opposite had only given notice for Thursday. Lord CKANBROOK asked the Clerk of the Parlia- ment how the matter stood on the paper ? Sir VVm. ROHK was understood to say that the Earl of Miiitown had precedence for Tuesday. Lord iDDKSLEidH, in answer to an appeal from Earl Granville, stated that in the Commons it would be disorderly and unprecedented, after a bill had been moved by one member and an order made, tor another member tu iutoi-poao witl. regard to the same measure. He contended that, under the circumstances, tiie noble earl (Mill- town) was entitled to make a. motion on the bill when it came to their lordships' house. The Earl of LIMERICK then moved that the Earl of Milltown have precedencc. The LORD-CHANCELLOR put the motion, and his declaration, that the "contents" have it, not being challenged to a division the motion was agreed to. Earl GRANVILLE I must say that I think the course taken is an unusual one. (Hear, hear, from the Opposition.) The House adjourned at a quarter to eight o'clock.

Muntz, said on July 14-tii he stated that, after consulting the highs,st iegal advice at their d sposal, the Government came to the conclusion that it was undesirable to take proceedings against the editor of the Pall Mall Gazette on account of the articles recently published, and from that conclusion they had not swerved. THI,, SUAKIM-BERBKLL RAILWAY. Mr W. H. SMITH, in ropiy to Sir Henry Tyler, said ho had no report of the present condition of the Suakiui-Berber Railway, but it was known that a portion had been damaged by heavy rains and a portion torn" up by tho Arabs. Tue line was constructed for a distance of 18 miles, hue was guarded for only about one and a-haJf miles from Suakim. Of 15,000 tons of rails and 355,000 sent out. about one-sixth was landed and remained. The remainder of the material was brought back to Engiand, and would be made use of at military stations where tramways are re- quired.
THE SIEGE OF KASSALA-
THE SIEGE OF KASSALA- PitOPOSJBD ItESCUS OF THIS BELEAGUERED GARRISON. Mr BOURKK, in answer to Sir Walter Barttelot, said We have received intelligence of a. severe defeat of the besiegers by the garrison of but the details given by the Standard are not contained in the ollicial report. I cannot at present announce what steps are being taken with a view to the safe withdrawal of tho garrison from Kassala. Sir W. BARTrELOT The Government are taking some s teps ? MI-BOURKE: Yes, sir. Mr LABOUCHERE inquired if the steps in con- templation for the relief of Kassala would involve any expenditure necessitating a supplemental estimate, or whether, in any case, the House would have an opportunity of discussing any proposed expenditure before it was incurred. Mr Bouiuus: If the hon. member will repeat his question on Thursday, I daresay I shall then be able to give him an answer. THE COURSE OK LUSINFSS. In reply to questions, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the Government intended to ask the House to proceed with supply until it was concluded. They would then take the Criminal Law Amendment Bill. He could not, however, undertake to put down tho latter bill as the iirst order on Thursday. SUrPLY. THE BECHUANALAND EXPEDITION. At ten minutes past 5 o'clock the House went into Committee of Supply and proceeded with the consideration of the Army Estimates on the vote of £ 339,800 for provisions, forage, fuel, transport, and other circumstances. Sir GKORGE CAMPBELL proposed to reduce the amount by jMbjUUU on account oi Beehuanaland. He understood that the expenditure going on there was at the rate of £ 120,000 a month, and he wanted to know what the policy of the Govern- ment was to be in regard to that country ? The CHAIRMAN pointed out that it would be inconvenient to raise an important question of colonial policy on a vote ior provisions for the army. The amendment was then withdrawn. SOLDIERS' CLOTHING. On the vote for clothing Mr GUY DAWNAY stated, i:t answer to Sir W. Barttelot, tl,.It there was no intention of coatigil), ttie colour of the British soldier's coat from red except in hot climates, where Khaki cotton or serge was the best material. PROPOSKD FORMATION OF VOLUNTEKR MINING ■KNG1NEKKS. On the next vote of £ 2,227,900 for the supply, manufacture, and repair of warlike and other stores, Mr W. H. SMITH entered into an elaborate explanation with regard to the expenditure in connection with the vote of credit, would be £1,417,000, and a scheme had been arranged for the proteofcion of our commercial ports such as the Tyne, the Mersey, the Clyde, and tho Severn, by the establishment of corps of volunteers, mining engineers, The estimate for the entire scheme of defences was 26,425,000, of which 2900,000 had been voted during the present year, and the remaining £5,525,000 would be spread over the next four or five years. In addition to that a sum of a quarter of a million would be expended in reserve stores. Mr O'KELLY did not see why the people of Ireland should be refused the opportunity of organising volunteer engineer corps tor the defence of their ports. Mr Guy DAWNAY promised that the question of the defcnce, of Ireland should receive the earnest attention of the Government, and that they would carefully consider Mr Q'iCelly'ii suggestion. Tho Vote was then agreed to, |LEFT PITTING.]
ABEKDAUE ATHLETIC SPOETS.
ABEKDAUE ATHLETIC SPOETS. The annual athletic spurts and horses races, promoted by the Aberdare District Licensed Victuallers' Association, were held on Monday, at the Ynys Meadow, Aberdare. The weather was very fine, and the attendance, comprising visitors from all parts of the district, was Jarg".

The boy Cross made a gallant struggle, and had one or two interesting incidental passages with Beechley, and only gave up just before tho expiration of the half hour, when he had accom- plished 22 laps. He afterwards made a collection on the course. In Ciiff-a strong-limbed athlete—and Cox, whose qualities are very well known, the chief interest was centred.

This was a very exciting match, partly from the fact that there were niite competitors, and also from the fact that during the tirst few laps they "ere manifestly unfamiliar with the uneven, and at intervals juass-tufted, track. Tom Prichard fell with his machine on the first lap, but went on again with as little lows of time as possible. David Morris was the lvixt to fall. Then John Davies, a very promising competitor, who staited at scratch, wont over near to the homo flag. Unfortunately, oil the next lap he fell almost exactly in th3 same spot, where the grouud was somewhat uneven, and although after a few minutes delay, he pluckily mounted his machine, he was hopelessly out of the race. Prit-ehard, however, managed to collar Hawk and to pass him as the race went on. The result was—1, Tom Pritchard (scratch) 3, George Paul (220 yds.); 3, Joseph Hawk (scratch). 150 YARDS FLAT KACE (handicap) for residents in Aberdare parish.

A NEW CHOUGH AT YNYSYBWL. On Monday Miss Williams, of the Glog, laid the foundation stone of Christ Church, Ynysybwl. The neighbourhood is up in the heights of the vaiieys which lie to the left of Pontypridd, and will soon bccome the nucleus of a great population, as vast colliery concerns are being opened up there by Mr i). Davies, M.P., and others. The weather was on this occasion beautifully fine, and there was a large company, Which included Mr T. Williams (the squire of" Glog), Mr R. Forrest (ngent to Lord Windsor), Mi'Hurman (of the'Taff Vala Railway), Mr J. Williams (Hendrescetban), ltev. W. Lewis (vicar of Ystrad), llev. B.cketton Edwards (vicar of Llanwonno), ltev. W. Lloyd (vicar of Mountain Ash). A luncheon afterwards took place at the Windsor Hotel, under the pie-ddcncy of Mr Forrest. Messrs Davies and Cousins are the builders of the edifice, towards which Lord Windsor has gener- ously contributed the site and £200. The church is designed in the early English style of Gothic architecture, and promises from the plans to be a well-proportioned building, and will accommodate rather more than 300 people. The church will cost about £ 1,100. The plans have been prepared by MrE. M. Bruce Vaughan, A. I.B.A., of Cardiff, who will superintend the building operations, and the contract has been let to Mr John Haines, of 139, Cowbndge-road, Cardiff.

MiQX^LAMORGAN LIBERAL ASSOCIATION,
MiQX^LAMORGAN LIBERAL ASSOCIATION, MH TALBOT ACCEPTED AS CANPIJMm A meeting of he general council of the above central association tvas held at the Town Hall, Nsath, on Monday, pr Davies, Maegteg, pre- sided, and there was a large attendance of delegates, the following districts being rfcpra* Garw, 2; Maes- te.g, 39; Glyucomvg, 6; Tondu, 4 Glyn Neath and Dulais, 16; and Briton Ferry, 2. Laleston, Skewen, Neath, and Aberavoa were not represented. The SKCRiSTARr at the outset read the following letter from Mr John Cory, of Cardiff :— I Vaindre Hall, St. Mellons, Cardiff, July 16th, 1885. My Dear Sil'I am in receipt of yours of the 14th enclosing the test questions of the association and informing me that 1 am desired to express my views thereon with a view to my nomination as your candi- date, and I will at once say that on the essential points I go as far as the widest and most Radical of your members desire. Now, with respect to the other important points, 1 have watched the reports of your proceedings in your division with considerable interest, and I cannot help thinking from what has appeared this week that the Father of the House of Commons will be chosen as your representa- tive. Indeed I should have great difficulty in bringing myself into any competition with one that has so long and well serrell the country. If. however, it should be necessary for you to look a field ;for a candidate, and the committee by a majority should select me, then I shall be willing to meet them and discuss the whole matter. I hope, however, th difference between the association and Mr Talbot will be adjusted so as to secure his return without any opposition.—Yours, very truly, JOHN CORY. Mr W. It. Thomas, secretary, Central Liberal Asso- ciation. The CHAIRMAN said that since the last meeting they had read an account of the serious illness of Mr Talbot. He was quite sure they all deeply regretted it and sympathised with him. They bad not written to Mr Talbot since the last meeting. There was a little dissatisfaction expressed as regarded his analysis of Mr Broad- hurst's bill, the representatives of the association not considering that his views quite coincided with those of the electors. They thought it would be advisable to have his views expressed more explicitly. It was for them, however, to say what course they would adopt. He (the chairman) thought they should show their sympathy with Mr Talbot in his illness, and he moved—" That this council begs to express its deepest regret with Mr Talbot in his present illness, and desires to express the hope that he will soon be restored to his usual health." (Cheers.) The motion was carried unanimously, and at once telegraphed to Mr Talbot. Mr E. GILBERT (Ltynvi) did not think they could do better than accept Mr Talbot as their candidate, and he, therefore, moved That this meeting unanimously accepts Mr Talbot as their candidate." This was seconded by Mr J. H. HIVANS, draper, Maesteg. Mr LEWIS LEWIS (Garw Valley) moved as an amendment" That the matter be deferred for a month." He did so because he felt that a reconciliation might in the meantime be effected with the other section. Mr JOSHUA WILLIAMS (Maesteg) understood from Mr Cory's letter that he did not intend to offer himself. He hoped they were there that day as representatives of the Glamorgan Division. They were now quite strong enough to carry any member they liked into Parlbmeni. Of course he was sorry there werd a few deserters, but this could not be avoided. He was very glad that Mr Talbot had consented to coma forward, and he thought it was their duty to vote unanimously in his favour, as father of the House of Commons. (Loud cheer.) Mr D. L. JONES (Briton Ferry), who spoke in Welsh, and Mr EmVAims (Briton Ferry) supported the resolution. Mr FKKBIEB (Tondu) did not see the use of adjourning. Everything had been carried on by the Maesteg section in a straightforward manner, and he should like to know what offence they had committed that they should appeal to the opposing section. The Nea. h party had selected a man, and would agree to no other. The working men had a power, to-day, such as they never had before. and the time would come when they would not require such men as Mr Talbot or Mr Cory, because they would have men amongst them- selves who would be able to represent them. For his own part he would not go an inch towards bringing the other party back. (Loud cheers.) Mr THOMAS (Avon Vale) protested against the amendment, which was also opposed by Mr BIERE (Tondu). The Rev. T. MANUEL (Garw) said that the chairman at Maesteg stated that the difference between the 200 and split section was that the 200 were going in lor principle, and the spiit section were going in for Mr Talbut and nothing else. It was thought that Mr Talbot could not be accepted as he did not fall in with the programme. At Bridgend it was stated that Mr Talbot had met the views of the association, but he submitted there was no difference between his first and his last letter. As they had refused Mr Talbot at first 3 it, 'H'1 iiU'j O'wU .11.1 .1.>L.Vu.1U ,ol.J. blu..I..u. J Mr Broad hurst's bill was one of the most im: portant points in question, and, as stated in a leading article in the South Wales Daily News, they must stand or fall by the compulsory clauses: which Mr Talbot said he could not vote for. His district was as loyal as any other section, bul as Mr Talbot could not Agree to their programme he did not see bow tbuy eould support him, how. ever anxious they might be to honour him personally. Mr ISAAC RERS (Maesteg) said that at the last meeting of the district a resolution was passed to support Mr Talbot. He did not think Mt Talbot fully represented their views-but he had always voted with the Liberal party, and he was quite sure Mr Talbot would do so again on all important questions. (Cheer3.) Fixity of tenure was an important question. Some people wished to leave the tenant farmers to take care of them. selves, but he considered their interests identical, and he was certain that Mr Talbot with bis larcrt experience would go in for this. He had neve* turned his back upon his party. (Hear, hear,) Mr Talbot had represented them now for many years, and he was in favour of fixity of tenure." Dr. :goCH DAVIES said Mr Talbot's letters were written in a very conciliatory and kind spirit, although, perhaps, his views on some questions did not thoroughly coincide with then- kin. He hoped the amendment would be with- drawn. The CHAIRMAN then said that ho noticed amongst them a gentleman who had rendered signal service to the Liberal cause—he referred to the editor of the South Wales Daily News, and if it was the wish of the meeting, Mr Johnstoue would address them. (Hear, hear.) Mr JOHNSTOUE (obeying the call of thenieetiog) said that the association deserved to be sympa- thised with on the ground that their correspon- dents did not seem to be at all clear or distinct in their expressions. They had had a number of letters which could not easily be understood. He had every respect for Mr Cory, but he thought that if he had simply said yes or no, they would be in a. much better position than they were. (Cheers.) He (the speaker) knew his own language pretty well, but he found some difficulty in interpreting what Mr Cory meant. If Mr Cory had said, It Mr Talbot comes forward I shall not," or it he had said, If you dacide by a majority to nominate me, I shall come forward and fight Mr Talbot," they would have known what to do. He thought when lie came down and saw the position of matters that they inight adopt a course something like this-that they might wait until Mr Talbot had recovered from his present illness, and then direct their secretary to ascertain whether he was prepared to satisfy them upon Mr Broadhurst's bill by accepting it in such a way as to leave no doubt as to what he meant, and whether be would give them some degree of satisfaction as to the fixity of tenure question. If the replies were favourable, he believed the associa- tion would unanimously go in for him. Then every objection would be removed. On the other hand, if they did, not choose Mr Talbot, where was their man ? Had they another candidate? Let them look around and ask them- selves the question, because it did not appear him that Mr Cory would oppose him. Were they prepared to bring forward another man ? They ought to be in a position to name one or two; for if they were not they would iV in the same position at the next meeting as they were then. He could easily see they had acted with such a degree of kindness and forbearance towards Mr Talbot as if they did not wish to shut the door against him and say, Go away." They had kept the door open a long time—not wide open perhaps —but wide enough for him to see in, and they had done a great deal to bring themselves and him together. (Cheers.) Mr Talbot had, 110 doubt, been suffering from a complaint which prevented him from devoting himself to such matters as he would otherwise have considered, and it they were of opinion that Mr Talbot, on the whole. would be accepted by the constituents, then he did not see why they should not go to the vote at once. (Cheers.) He could see no grounds for thinking that Mr Cory would stand. For his part, he should be very glad if they could decide upon their candidate, and if they that day fixed upon Mr Talbot no one else would come forward. ,They would have a clear field with no fighting, and they wqflild not only know who was to be the candidate but who was to be their future member. (Loud cheers.) Mr JOHN T. WILLIAMS (Resolven) said the Glynneath and Dulais sections had decided to support Mr Cory. MJ LEWIS LEWIS said his remarks appeared to have been misconstrued. It was desirous that Mr Talbot should be accepted, but he also wished them to be unanimous. He refused to withdraw the amendment. Other gentlemen rose to speak, bat there were loud cries of Divide." The votes were then taken, with the following result :— or the amendment 7 Against 67 Majority against 60 lfle xiev. x. IVJLANUKL tnen movect another amelldment-" That inasmuch as Mr Talbot docs not accept the programme of this association, he be not accepted." There was, however, no seconder to this. The origina.1 resolution was then put to the meeting as a substantive motion, and carried amid loud cheers. It was then proposed to bold future meetings at Neath and Maesteg alternately. Dr. Enoch Davies opposed this, and said that he would pre- for one ol the Briton Ferry Radicals to ten of j the Neath Whigs. Conservatism was iirouw'-ug in NO.ith, and lie did uot think it was a healthy 1 place for the ii;idio:-tl plant to flourish, in. It was eveatuall.ydee'uled to hold the meeting alter; r iiately at ridgend and Briton Ferry. A vote < thanks to th3 chairman terminated the proeeeings,

Au a moad- ment ia favour of Llandilo was lost by 32 votes to 66, vhile Ammanford received 50 votes on the second count, and was declared eleeied. Mr T. POWELL, of Carregcsnnin, hoped the gontlenan who he was about to propose would be unfnimously adopted, and that was Mr D. Pugh, of Mwiioravon—(cheers)—to whom the Liberal cause owed as much as to anyone in the county. It was very satisfactory. that they had a gentleman of Mr Fugii's position so thorougi a Liberal, for all his equals were on the other side, and he lived in a contaminating atmosphere of Conservatism. (Laughter and applause.) Mr Pugh had always been a Liberal, and ho was glad to see that be was not receding in his views, but was more advanced now than ever before. He was by far the beet candidate for the division. (Cheers.) Mr W. HOWELL, Llanelly, seconded, and said that Mr Pugh's exposition of his views at their last meeting was thoroughly satisfactory. He had not a single crotchet, and was an out-and-out ¡ Liberal; and having regard to those matters and to Mr Pugh's position in the county, he heartily seconded Mr Pugh's selection. (Applause.) Mr J. A. WILLIAMS, Llauelly, said they did not object to Mr Lewis Morris, but thought Mr Pugh the most popular candidate. They selected Mr Pugh now and would keep Mr Morris in view for the future. A unanimous vote was then recorded in favour of Air Pugh, and declared amid repealed cheers. The chairman then announced that, under- standing that their choice was likely to fall upon Air Pugh, he gave that gentleman an un-official invitation to visit the meeting after the vote was taken. Air Pugh was received with rounds of applause again and again renewed. He thanked them from the bottom of liis heart for the honour they had dona him, and he hoped and believed he should be able to please them. (Cheers.) It would be his delight to work with the great Liberal party, which had given them all the beneficent measures which they enjoyed, by whatever agents or instruments they might have been carried out for the time being. He believed that by working with that great party they would be able to do great things in the direction of retrenchment and economy, and perhaps by-and* by even the National Debt would become a thing of the past. (Applause.) The meeting terminated amid renewed cheering for Mr Pugh.

RdimBOUiTT OP NVDQT GI4jttORGAN. On Saturday night Air F. A. Yeo, the selected Liberal candidate for West Glamorgan, addressed a. meeting of his supporters at the Congregational Chapel, Dunvant. Alderman Phillips, of Swansea, presided. There was a very good attendance.—Mr Rowlands (Waun- arlwydd) proposed a vote of confidence in Mr Glad- stone for the great services that he had rendered to the Liberal cause. Air Griffiths (Dunvant) seconded the proposition, which was also sup- ported by the Rev. R. Thomas and Alessrs Williams (Wern) and Scudamore. Mr Yeo, who had a most enthusiastic reception, also spoke in support of it. He impressed on the audience the necessity of returning a strong majority of Liberals to the next Parliament, for if such would not be the case the presumable alliance of the Conservatives and Parnellites would cripple all progress and retard the passing of such reforms as the country stands sorely in need or. lie advocated such reforms in the House of Lords as would make that assembly a thoroughly repre- sentative one. With reference to the land laws, Mr Yeo said that a radical change was necessary in this branch of legislation, so as to make the land the property of more persons than at present. He would also vote for the repeal of the IJAV of entail and settlement, and pronounced himself totally in favour of Air Broadhurst's bill. Mr Yeo concluded a well-delivered address by referring to the disestablishment and disen. dowment of the Church in Wales, free education and local option, all of which he would be most happy to vote for should he be returned at the next general election.—The Rev J. Davies moved a resolution thanking Air Yeo for his address, and pledging the meeting to support his candidature. This was seconded by Mr Walters, Vexe Farm, and supported by Mr Wm. Harris, Gorwydd. The resolution was then put to the meeting and carried unanimously. The Rev L. Davies also spoke on the necessity of each person seeing that his name appeared on the new registration list.— The Rev E. Jenkins proposed, and the Rev R. Evans seconded,a vote of thanks to the chairman, which brought to a close a very successful meet- ing. ling. A BODY FOUND IN THE

DAHRY DOCKS,'",
DAHRY DOCKS, The work of shutting out the tide from the new doclf works has been successfully accom- plished, To close in the last piece on the eastern embankwfcut required great skill and energy, This has been done under Mr Thomas A, Walker's personal superintendence, ably sup- purted by Mr Chas, H. Walker, The works all round is being pushed forward with Mr Walker's characteristic energy, Last Barry is rapidly presenting all the appearance of a well-laid out town. A large number of houses are already occupied, and some pew streets aro in process ot erection, A apacious lecture-hall and 4 fine mission ehapel will be shortly erected meanwhile services are held in a tent by Mr Walker's evangelists, A fine supply of water has been struck in connection with the boring for the docks, The heavy work at the Wenvoe.Tumiel is being pressed forward, before the year is out not far from 3,000 workmen will be engaged on the works,
THE COAIJ STOPPAGE AT D0WLA1S.
THE COAIJ STOPPAGE AT D0WLA1S. The suspension of labour, which commenced ou Saturday at the various coalpits belonging to the Powlais Company, was continued on Monday, The whole of the ten couieries are idle, and the men, or at least large numbers of them, have found temporary employment in the hay fields at Pant, Vaynor, and other places. The pit labourers, rippers, and repairers worked as usual on Sunday night, and were brought back to Dowlais on Monday iiioriiitig, Since then everything has remained quiet. It is very uncertain whether work will be resumed to day or not. There is a rumour about amung-st some of tho rvm that the stoppage will continue throughout the week, but it seems scarcely credible that such should be the case, Tile sudden chang-e in the aspect of affairs has, as may be imagined, caused a ftreat amount of excitement amongst the work- men, some of whom regard the whole tiling as inexplicable. Some again solve the problem by the old statement that there are plenty of orders in the liaiid6 of the company, but that there is an insufficient number of ships to convey the coal from Cardiff and other ports. p- 'q

ACTION BY is EWFOItT SHIP- OWNERS. DAMAGES AGAINST THE HARBOUR- MASTER. At the Worcestershire assizes, on ALiol)d.-ky- before Mr Justice Smith—the action of Cory v. Lyne and another was heard. Mr Mathews, Q.C., a-id Mr Alfred Young (instmc'.ed by Mr E. Vaughan) were for the plaintiff, and Mr Bosanquet, Q.C., and Mr Lawrence (instructed by Messrs Lyne and Co.), for the defendants, Plaintiff and his sons owned tie fleet of steam ships trading from Newport. This action was brought against the harbour-master for the Newport commissioners. It was alleged that the harbourmaster had, without due care, inflicted injury upon the plaintiff's vessel. De- fendants denied that they were answerable, and plaintiff's steamship Raglan, with 1,300 tons iron ore, was moored at the wharf of the Patent Nut and Bolt Company when the captain was asked to move to enable another steamer, the Minnie, to be dischaiged. The captain of the Raglan refused to move, on the ground that the berth to which lie was required to go was unsafe. Therjupon Captain Phillips, the deputy harbour master, removed her. She slipped towards the centre of the river, and the chain and hawser parted. As the tide rose it was necessary to keep the engines going, and the mud choked aud damaged the engines. The judge held that the t-- under tha act must be --t-,rciizi-d with due caution, and the delendenta had "been guilty of negligence. He gave judgment for the full amount claimed— £ 135 and costs,
THE SULIHULL MURDEU.
THE SULIHULL MURDEU. The prisoner under arrest on the charge of being the murderer of Thomas Gateley, at Suli- hull, still remains at the lock-up at Warwic.k The building is well guarded by police, and strong iron-wire netting has been placed in apertures, through which the cells could be teen from the street. It is stated that further evidence nas been obtained identifying- the prisoner with Henry Duff, the man suspected of being the murderer. Supt. Yard ley, who was at Warwick all last week in connection with the case, has not the slightest doubt that the prisoner is the man who has been wanted" since the time of the tragedy. It is believed that the accused will a my being Henry Duff. A Leamington correspondent says that the prisoner was arrested by Inspector Hail, of Warwick, and that no assistance was received from either the London or the Irish police. Inspector Hall states that, hearing Duff was in London, he proceeded there. Hall was riding on -all omnibus in the city, when he observed the prisoner on the top of another omnibus going in an opposite direction. The officer at once alighted, took a cab, and followed the omnibus, on coming up with which he arrested his man, and took him to Bow-street police-station. He was joined by Superintendent North, of Warwick, who was not far off when the capture was made. Our Birmingham coirespondent teleraphs;- Contrary io expectation, the alleged murderer of Thomas Gateley was not brought up at Solihull police-court this morning. Mr Cuattock, the presiding magistrate, explained that the case was not yet ripe for investiga- tion, and that the prisoner before being brought before the magistrates at Solihull would probably be remanded at Warwick, where he is now confined. The evidence, proving the prisoner is Henry Duff, is considered to be conclusive, but there are other Imks which the prosecution are anxious to connect before they proceed with the magisterial investigation. _n_

That was, he said, the only school in Cardilf on a pubiic or semi-public basis. He aked them to reflect upon their pre- sent positiou and prospects, and to remove from Cardiff the reproach that there was no v.;ry marked increased in tho number of boys attending intermediate schools. But there was a very satisfactory side to the report; and they ought to be thankful that they had a schol in which so high a report could been given. He only wished more schools in Wales would emulate that school in sending boys to the London matriculation examination. They had a school thoroughly efficient, and yet the number atteud- ing it was only 85, a much smaller number than there ouffht to be in that large town. In the middle of a population of 100,000 an efficient school of that sort surely ought to he attended by a. fa,r greater number of boys. Other inter- mediate schools in Cardiff were suffering from the same paucity in the attendance. The people of Cardiff seemed to pay small heed to the efforts that had been made is giving them a thoroughly efficient school. It might be said that the fees of the school were too liign. That might be in pare true, but the council were taking- that master into consideration. (Applause.) But people must not be unreason- able. A good education could not be given with- out expenditure, and the expenditure could not be maintained unless people were content to pay the requisite fees. But they must look far deeper down than this if they wanted to discover the real cause of the starvation of intermediate schools in the town. Here was that great prosper- ing town, and yet 200 made up all that attended all the intermediate sqliools The intellectual lelieL of ths town was not as high as it ought to be. 'Cfl.. w--wuiiLo ui ç..lu\ ""1' .v\ L'J?.FlCt,£.<.v\d a* they^ought to be by the middle-class population of Cardiff. He thought the people who ought to have their children at the intermediate schools- Were content with their being at the elementary schools or the higher grade school. But the higher grade was after all merely elementary. That lack of intellectual ambition shown not oniy by the small numbers in attendance at the schools, but also the early age at which they were taken away, was to be deplored and to be remedied. Some people deprecated the interference of Government in intermediate education. In the present state of things he did not. He was exceedingly sorry that the present unhappy circumstances politically-that as "ffeciu the Intermediate Education Hill-had prevented its becoming law this session but lie hoped soon to see so good a measure passed. (Applause.) As to the future of intermediate education in Carddf, he believed, ia spite of what existed, that Cardiff was aiming at something1 better, and that the time would shortly como when they would have not between 80 and 90 boys at that school, but 400 or 500. (Applause.) Mr Jones next addressed a few words of advice and encouragement to the boys, and followed by distributing the handsomely bound volumes which filled the table before him. A. cordial vote of thanks to Mr Viriamu Jones was proposed by the PKESIDKNT, seconded by Col. HILL, and carried with applause. Similar compliments were also paid to the Rev J. J. Milne (the examiner), the head-master, and and the presideot.
