HOW THE YEOMANRY LEFT RUABON. A correspondent, writing to the "Manchester Guardian," says:—I have no doubt your readers would like to hear how the 88th and 89th Com- panies Imperial Yeomanry left Ruabon. They may have already read that Ruabon gave them a very hearty send'-off to Southampton early on Saturday morning, but the details of what was done have probably not reached' them. There was a bit of a disturbance, and it all arose out of the kit bags. Instead of sending down the kit bags (which were in most cases well filled and heavy) to the station in carts, the acting colonel (Sir W. W. Wyrnn) made the men carry them themselves. The men had been doing nothing all day (we all know how tiring doing nothing is), and it showed' great lack of consideration to make them their own pack animals (they had to carry rifle, overcoat, and valise at the same i time) at so unearthly an hour as one in the morning, and when they had a long and tedious journey in front of them. At half-past seven on Friday evening, the men fell in, and went up to Wynnstay Park. There they were entertained to a supper, and Sir Watkin made an excellent speech, impressing upon them the necessity of self-reliance and the value iof mutual trust. Be- fore the men left for the statiott. badges, imita- tion leeks with green ribbons attached, were dis- tributed as a memento of the occasion. So far, all went as merrily as a wedding bell, but when the troops approached the ledge gates apposite the railway premises, the people—friends, in- habitants, and casual visitors.obroke into the park in great numbers, and went to meet them. We all knew that the men had anticipated diffi- culties from the unweildiness of their kit bags, and we hoped we might be allowed to assist I them. Sir Watkin was quite within his rights in turning us out; military discipline must be maintained, aJid we cannot Be unmindful that respect for the privacy of a gentleman's grounds is demanded of us By aN laws, social amd other. But there were circumstances which made our offence less culpable, and the manner in which we were turned out of the park did little credit to Sir Watkin's judgment. The following duol- fogne will give some idea of how it was done. Sir Watkin (to civilian carrying kifbag): "Here, sir; what are you doing?" Civilian: ""Carrying 9 9 my friend's kit, bag." Sir Watkin: "Well, put I it down, and_ clear out of this at once. What right have you here? AH civilians out of the park at once. Officers, tunt them out. Out you get, all of you." An extraordinary scene cnsued at the, gates. Sir Watkin halted his horse (after most of the offemhfs had been routed), midway between the gate posts, and then the crowd, by no means a small one. set to I work to hoot. Sir Watkin mav thank his stars he was not in Birmingham. Despite these and I other unfortunate incidents. I believe that the yeomanry were conscious they were getting a good send-off. They were cheered to the echo, I and the crowd subsequently swarmed into the station and surrounded the train. I believe these two companies were the last to close their re- cruiting list. They go, too, to replace companies I which have been terribly o ecimatedl bv fighting and disease. I wish them "God speed." Tnev cast anchor from Southampton earlv on Sunday morning, and now on board the "Norman" are speeding over the ocean to take their chance in the lottery of battle.

TEE GOVERNORSHIP OF CAR- NARVON PRISON. We understand that a resolution to the follow- ¡ ing effect was passed at their last meeting by the Visiting Justices to his Majesty's Prison. Carnarvon, with reference to the departure of Mr Dillon :—"That the Visiting Justices to his Majesty's Prison, Carnarvon, on parting with the Governor, Mr John Dillon, of whose well- deservedi promotion they are glad to hear, desire to place on record their sense of the unvarying conscientiousness, firmness, and kindness with which he has discharged his duties in maintaining the discipline of the gaol. They recognise also that his sympathy towards all eases deserving of it, and his zeal in the work of the Discharged Prisoners' Aid Society show a high conception of the office of a prison governor."

A SEVENTH DAUGHTER. HER PARENTS DISTRESSED. ( An extraordinary story comes from the mining I district of Shropshire, and the circumstances connected with it have been recorded by a well- known writer who had occasion to investigate what he describes as a remarkable example of I parental affection." It appears that a Mr Wil- liam Price, mill-manager and stocktaker, who lives at Bennett's Bank, near Wellington, has been employed at the Haybridge Ironworks for upwards of thirty-six years, and certain informa- tion prompted the reporter to pay Mr Price a visit. He lives in a pleasantly situated house adjoining the old Watling Street-road and is the happy father of seven daughters, several of them being married. The youngest daughter, who is just twenty years of age, was very deli- cate, and when she did a little housework would frequently become faint. Her health caused her parents much anxiety. Miss Price was sent to learn the millinery and dressmaking, but after a time her health and appearance began to cause even greater alarm in the domestic circle. "She was always weak and bad," said Mrs Price to the reporter, "and very pale. She would often come in and drop into a chair, scarcely able to breathe. At the end of twelve months we very reluctantly took her away from the dressmaking, and she has been at home now for nearly two years. Here is my daughter." said Mrs Price, as the door opened, and a bright and happy young I lady came into the room. Her appearance did not indicate that she had suffered from any serious illness, and the reporter asked what accounted for the remarkable change in Miss Price in so short a time. Mr Price, who had just returned from business, said, "When almost everything has failed one feels compelled to try any possible remedy, and I must admit I was fortunate in happening to hit upon the I right thing. I was greatly concerned about my daughter's health, for no doctor's medicine seemed to do her any good. I had heard and read of Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people, and finally determined to give them a trial. So I went into Wellington and bought a box of the pills, and on my return home persuaded my daughter to take some. She did so, and told her mother that she felt better. She took more cf the pills, and her health continued to improve; indeed we could see a change taking place in her. Instead of being utterly exhausted and incapable of even a slight exertion she began to take an interest in life, and had strength to do little things in the house that were formerly impossi- ble. I persuaded her to keep on with Dr Wil- liams' pink pills until she had quite recovered. This she did, with the result that now she is, as you can eee for yourself, as lively and as bright as any girl need be." This interesting statement was corroborated by Mrs Price, who added, I have had a great deal of sickness at one time or another, and I have been at death's door several times. As Dr Williams' pink pills did my daughter so much good I thought I would try them myself, and I I can honestly say that I felt much better after I took them. I shall always speak well of Dr Williams' pink pills, for they have also done my daughter a great deal of good." Miss Price herself confirmed all that had been stated, remarking: "It is quite true what my parents have told you, and I am glad to say I am better now than I have ever been in my life. If I feel languid and unwell I have recourse to Dr Williams' pink pills, for they do me so much good. You may publish what I have told you, for I am glad to help others who suffer as I have done." A happy disposition and the preservation of a woman's beauty depend entirely upon her I health. With the improvement in Mi ss Price's health the effect became apparent in her looks. But when, as in anaemia, the face grows pale, sallow, and thin, the direct cause is impoverished and deficient blood. Dr Williams' pink pills enrich and purify the blood, and restore to women who are run down and bloodless their natural vivacity and charm. These pills exert at the same time a powerful influence over the I nervous system. Rheumatism, sciatica, indi- gestion^ biliousness, bronchitis, consumption, paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, and all ailments paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, and all ailments that afflict women and girls have been cured in innumberable instances by Dr Williams' pink pills, and they are equally efficacious for men. But one word of warning is necessary: only the genuine pills, to be identified by the full name, Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people (seven words), are of service to those in ill-health. Substitutes and imitations trading on the re- putation properly belonging to Dr Williams' pink pills are sometimes offered by tradesmen who have no scruples about deluding their customers, out where trouble is experienced, readers should send to Dr Williams' medicine company, Holborn-viaduct, London, enclosing I the price, two and nine for one box, or for six I boxes, thirteen and nine. Anaemic and bilious, people should avoid purgatives, which impoverish I the blood and weaken the system.

NATURALISTS AT CARNARVON ¡ VISlT OF THE MANCHESTER FIELD CLUB. A party of seventeen members and friends of the Manchester Field Club, under the leader- ship of their honorary secretary, Mr Alfred Griffiths, paid a five days' visit to the neighbour- hood of Carnarvon, making the Royal Hotel their headquarters. As the weather permitted, va- rious places of interest within easy distance of Carnarvon were visited, and in the evenings meetings were held, at which addresses were given, on the geology, natural history, tides, and antiquities of the district. Upon Friday evening, a short address upon the late J. Critchley Prince, of Hyde, as a poet of nature, was given by Mr Joel Wainwright, J.P., which had been suggested b" the landscape skirting the shore of the Straits, in the direction of Abermenai, the range of Snowdonia being to the left, while the front was broken by the three rugged peaks of the "Rivals," all bathed in glorious sunlight. Mr Wainwright enumerated the chief events in the life and times of the poet, and cited the following as the sentiment which pervaded his writings — "My heart's religion is an earnest love Of all that's trood, and beautiful, and true My noblest temple is the sky above, This vast pavilion of unclouded blue. These mountains are my alters, which subdue My wildest passions in their wildest hours, My incensse—the breath of herbs, fruits, and flowers." The retarded season did not admit of much work being done by the botanists of the party, but such plants as were found were dealt with at the evening meetings, by Mr Charles Bailey, F.L.S. On Friday evening, he took as his sub- ject the plants of the natural order Cruciferae, which had been collected during the day on the Carnarvonshire and Anglesey sides off the Menai Strait. The most frequent plant met with was a dwarf form of the common scurvy-grass Cochlearia. officinalis, which was in profuse flower all along the coasts, its predominating colour being a purplish-white. Another free- flowering dwarf plant of the sanie natural order was the whitlow-grass, Erophila vulgaris, whose brilliant but diminutive white flowers made it conspicuous in the sunlight, as its habit is to grow in colonies. This plant assumes protean forms, varying considerably in the size and de- gree of inflation of its fruits, and the relation of their length to their breadth the forms of the leaves and of the other organs of the plant., and the degree of branching, formed other points of discrimination between the various members of the genus. The deceased French botanist, Monsieur Alexis Jordadn, had differentiated an enormous number of species out of a single super- species, and considerable attention was being paid to the group by British botanists, especially by the Rev E. S. Marshall, of Petworth. An- other frequefit member of the same family was met with, also in colonies, on wall-tops and! hedge-banks, especially about Llanbeblig. namely, the common bittercress, "Cardamine hirsjnta," a plant which even in this early season of the year had its fruits overtopping the upper flowers. These three plants were met. with sub- sequently on the slopes of the British camp, Dinas Dinlle, when the Club paid that earth- work a visit on the subsequent Monday. Most of the plants belonging to this natural order were characterised1 by petals arranged at right angles to each other, so as to form the I four members of a cross—hence their name of Cruciferae; they also possessed six stametns. The number of these last-named organs was used by Linnseus as the basis of his classification of flowering plants, and plants possessing six stamens constituted his sixth class—Hexandria; in Itt are found a large, number of liliaceous plants I such as hyacinths, squills, lilies, tulips, bog- "oiels, and the like, all of which made up a. comparatively natural group; but to have as- sociated with it the six-stamened) fjowters of nbaees, mustards, cresses, radishes, and wall- flowers, would have been to joia together two very dissimilar groups. The synthetical genius I of Linnaeus, therefore, seized upon the fact that in these last-named plants, the six stamens were not of equal length, four being long and twtr short, and from this circumstance, he named tlr? group Tetradynamia — the power of four. This group constitutes his sixteenth class, and it corresponds very nearly to the natural Cruciferae. Although the order is very neatJy characterised by the oreans named, systemalists are, by no means, agreed as to the sequenoe which should be observed in arranging the genera. in the linear series. Broadly speaking, the order furnishes ¡. two kinds of fruits—one with a pod, Or siliqua, in whioh the length greatly exceeds the breadth, as in the fruiits of the waJlflower, cabbage, and stocks; and the other with a shorter pod, or I silicle, in whioh the length does not exceed four timels the breadth, as in the fraits of the shep- herd's-purse, whitlow-grass, andi scurvy-grass. Sometimes the fruits are broken up into bead-like divisions, as in the radish. Each of these groups determined by the positions assumed by the radicle and cotyledons in the seed, but alto- ""ther. the existing marshelling is not a very successful arrangement. On Saturday evening, attention was given to the geological character of the neighbourhood. From the botanical side, it was seen that the I country round. Carnarvon was not. specially rich in the variety of its flora., on account of the na- ture of its surface soil; the underlying rocks were amongst the oldest of the sedimentary de- posits of the British Islands, whilst the granites and other igneous rocks were protruded in masses all over the area. But the district had one special feature which made it pre-eminent 'over most parts of Great. Britain, namely, the wonderful variety of its brambles, which seem to have a special partiality for the slate rocks. No less than sixty different brambles are recorded for the county in the "Flora" compiled a few years ago by Mr John E. Griffith, F.L.S., F.R.A.S., of Bangor, three-fourths of this num- ber being due to his personal researches. One form, the Rubus Griffithii, growing between Bangor and Carnarvon, and also on Anglesey, has had the discoverer's name conferred upon it by our leading British batologist.^ the Rev W. Moyle Rogers, F.L.S. It was a disappointment to the Club that Mr Griffith was not able to meet the members during their visit to the district. Comparatively few representatives of the lime- stone-loving vegetation were found about Car- narvon itself, but they are present in abundance at the opposite end of the county on the Great and Little Orme's Heads. There is, however, a thin strip of limestone running along both sides of the Menai Straits, but the only two ) special limestone plants collected were the sea storks-bill. Erodium maritimum. found in the short sandy turf of Carnarvon Bay, and the bulbous-rooted saxifrage, saxifraga granulata., found on the slopes of Dinas Dinlle on Monday morning. Doubtless, many other representa- tive limestone plants occur later in the year, such as the rock cistus, dropwort, mountain St. John's—wort, etc. On Monday afternoon, a -visit was paid to .the great slate quarries at Nantlle, which, though not so extensive as those at Penrhyn. are more picturesque. The great slate industry of the district is everywhere ap-narent; in huge refuge heaps round the quarries, in the railway and sea traffic, in the materials for building and flagring. and even for the styles and. fences. In the regretted absence of the president of the Club, Mr Mark Stirrup, F.G.S.. Mr Bailey ven- tured to give a short account of the slate rocks which form the basis of this extensive industry. ¡ Slates are derived from almost the lowest series of the sedimentary rocks—the Cambrian. Under- lying them, however, is a still older series—the pre-Cambrian or archaen, which have retained their position more rigidlv than the beds which overtie them. In the cooling of the earth's crust, and in the settling of that crust after the pro- trusion of the granites, trap, and other igneous rocks, the sedimentary beds have been subject to much stress and strain in this process, the I slate rocks have been thrust against the more sturdy pre-Cambrian rocks from a south-eastern direction, with the result that where the pres- sure has been greatest., the beds have been crumpied into numerous folds and contortions. The peculiar susceptibility to cleavage in those slate rocks is believed to be an effect of the en- ormous and long-continued pressure to which they have been subject: had this pressure not been exerted, the rock could not have been broken up into the thin plates which are so use- t ful for roofing purposes. The direction of the plane of cleavage is parallel to the axis of the large folds into which the slate rocks have been, thrust, their microscopic structure showing that their ultimate particles lie with their flat sur- faces perpendicular to the direction in which the pressure was exerted. There are also certain chemical differences amongst the tslaite rocks which probably explain why some kinds of slate possess longer wearin.g- qualities than others., as well as the differences in their prevailing I colours. The cleavage of slate into thin plates is mhre readily effected soon after quarrying, and the longer it is exposed to the acfion of the weather, the more difficult the splitting process becomes. The materials from which the slate rocks have been derived were the silica and ¡ allumina of ordinary clav, brought down by the rivers of some continent which probably existed towards the north-west, and whose place is oc- cupied by the existing ocean. The weather was somewhat broken and stormy, leavened with intervals of considerable sunshine and warmth. The hills were all covered with enow when the party reached Carnarvon, but the warmer temperature and occasional rain daily decreased the visible masses of snow, and! by Tuesday morning, when the members left. the hill scenery had completely changed. There were at least two gorgeous sunsets during the week. and several very rough tides. The water of the Menai Straits was constantly changing, and the channel was more blocked by sandbanks than many of the members expected to see. Mr J. E. Griffith mentions in his "Flora of Anglesey and Carnarvonshire," a peculiarity of the 0 tides in the Strait. It is subject to the influences of ¡ two tides, both starting from the west, one passes round Holyhead, and the other through the Menai Straits, and as the former has to travel over a longer course than the latter, the flow is more than an hour earlier at Carnarvon, both tides meeting at Gallows Point. The con- figuration of this part of the coast causes the tide fifom the main sea. to be pouring into the Strait at Carnarvon, while it is ebbing out of it at Beaumaris, and the tnde continues to fall at Carnarvon after the direction of the current is changed. The. converse of this also takes place, for the ebb commences at Carnarvon be- fore it is high water at Beaumaris, and with the change in the direction of the current, the water continues to rise at Menai Bridge for a considerable time after it has begun to ebb at Carnarvon.

NORTH WALES MEDICALS- I ASSOCIATION. The spring intermediate meeting of the North Wales branch of the British Medical Association was held at Wrexham on Thursday, Dr G. R. Griffith (Carnarvon) presiding. On the motion of the president, seconded by Dr J. Lloyd Ro- berts (Colwyn Bay), a resolution was adopted expressing regret at the death of Queen Victoria, and condolence with the King and and the Royal Family. Dr S. Edwards Jones (Bangor- isycoed) was elected a member of the branoh. Dr T. R. Bradshaw (Liverpool) explained the report of the Constitution Committee, and a resolution was passed approving the main prin- ciples of the report, and the holding of meetings to discuss the report in detail at Bangor (for members residing in Carnarvonshire and Angle- sey), at Barmouth (for members residing in Mer- ionethshira and Montgomeryshire), and at Wrexham (for those residing in Denbighshire and Flintshire), these sub-district meetings to report to the annual meeting. Interesting papers were read by Dr J. Evans, Carnarvon; Dr G. P. N ewbolt, Liverpool; Dr W. Thelwall Thomas, Liverpool; and Dr T. R. Bradshaw, Liverpool.
