THE ARMS OF THE PRINCIPALITY…
THE ARMS OF THE PRINCIPALITY OF WALES. [By MR HUGHES OF KINMEL]. Writing to the Archseologia Cambrensis," a two years ago the Lord Lieutenant of Flintshire incidentally referred to a question which has since been receiving considerable atten- tion in the Principality, viz., the desirability of Wales beiug heraldically represented on the royal shield. The occasion for the letter were some statements in an article by Mr Ebblewhite, in a previous number, under the heading Flintshire Genealogical Notes." Having dealt with some of these, Mr Hughes proceeds as follows- On p. 192 Mr Ebblewhite refers to the vexed question as to what coat of arms should be borne by the Prince of Wales in right of his Principa- lity. I must own to a feeling of regret that he decided it in favour of the three lions pasnant, regardant, coward, and recorded his decision on the casket presented to the Prince and Princess at Carnarvon. Whatever may be the origin of this very mean coatmblematical of the most abject cowardice-it cannot be denied that it appears, as Mr Ebblewhite tells as, "on the seals of Prince Edward, son of King Edward IV, and Prince Arthur, son of King Henry VII, as Princes of Wales". But, so far as I know, it was never as. signed to nor borne by any of the native Princes; and it has always occurred to me that it was in- tended by the designer to be an unmerited insult to a conquered but heroic nation, which had taken the whole power of the greatest of the Planta- genets to subdue, and a direct disparagement of their valour. If it is desirable that Wales should be heral- dically represented on the royal shield, a good deal might be said on behalf of the three lions passant in pale of Gryffith ap Cynan, the last Sovereign who bore the title of King,—a coat still used by his descendants. But perhaps much more might be urged in favour of the adoption of the coat of Llewelyn ap Griffith, the last Prince, namely, quarterly, gules and or, four lions passant guardant counterchanged. In Lewis Dwn (vol. ii), it is stated, on the authority of the late Sir S. R. Meyrick, that there exists in the British Museum a sketch of the intended procession for Queen Elizabeth's funeral, in which these arms are displayed on the Banner of Wales". which was to be carried on that occasion by the Viscount Bindon; that the earliest coeval document in which they are mentioned is in the Life of Foulques Fitz-warren, temp. Henry 111. (1216-72), also in the British Museum that in a representa- tion of the heraldic quarterings appertaining to Queen Elizabeth, sketched in her time (College of Arms, 2 G. 4), the same arms appear in like manner; so also in Harleian MS. 6,085, and in L. 14, Heralds' College, as well as in an emblazoned MS. by Sir William Segar in the Library at Good- rich Court, dedicated to King James I. Enderbie, too, in his Cambria Triumpbans," assigns these arms to Roderick the Great, King of all Wales, on the authority of Mills in his "Catalogue of Honour" (published 1610), and continues them to his descendant*; and they were borne on his great seal by Owen Glyndwr, great-great-grandson, and heir of line, of Prince Llewelyn ap Griffith, who was also ancester of the bouse of Tudor and of the present royal family. The list of authorities in favour of this coat might probably be added to; but in the meantime they appear to rebut the evidence quoted by Mr Ebblewhite in support of the three lions coward. H. R.

The 4s. Grant to Lunatics…
The 4s. Grant to Lunatics and its further application. TO THE EDITOR OF THE RHYL JOtfRNAL. SIR,-At the last quarterly meeting of the Com- mittee of Visitors of the North Wales Counties Lunatic Asylum, a resolution was passed in general approval of extending the 4s grant to lunatics and idiots confined iu places other than Lunatic Asy- lums, according to a scheme drawn up by the County Councils Association. As a copy of this resolution has been forwarded to the County Councils and Boards of Guardians in North Wales, may I, through the medium of your columns, address to the members of those bodies a few observations on the subject matter of this resolution. The grant of 4s. per week towards the mainten- ance of pauper lunatics dates from 1874. Until the establishment of County Councils this grant was paid direct from the Public Exchequer, but since 1889 it has been paid by these bodies, this charge being calculated in the;Exchequer contribution they annually receive from Government. Evet since the first making of the grant, resolu- tions in favour of its extension have been continu- ously passed by the Board of Guardians and other local authorities, and in consequence the question has been considered on several occasions by the County Councils Association (a body representing tLCjUnty Councils), and they have recently pre- £ pe<i and forwarded to the Local Government f:°ard the scheme mentioned above, which wa<* the Asylum Visitors. erauto 8c^me *n providing for the extension of the the Dro °ertain safeguards, intended to insure grant.

DR. NANSEN SUED FOR BREACH…
DR. NANSEN SUED FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT. According to a New York telegram, published II) the London Mail, Dr. Nanaen, the Arctic explorer, is being sued by the Reading Lyceum Bureau, JJoatoii, for 20,000 dols. for breach of con- tract. Dr. Nansen's property in New York has been attached pending further proceedings. The managers of the Bureau claim that Dr. Nanseii agreed to deliver 100 lectures, but after deliver- ing sixty-seven refused to continue. The explorer's secretary says that the doctor is greatly pleased with the reception he has had in this country, but being very tired from constant travelling and lecturing, he wants to get home.

SAD ENDING OF ONE OF MR. STANLEY'S…
SAD ENDING OF ONE OF MR. STANLEY'S COMPANIONS. One of Mr. Stanley's companions has !fallen on evil times and seems likely to end his career in a workhouse infirmary. Mr. William Bonny, who accompanied the explorer in search of Emin Pasha, and was the sole survivor among the officers of the ill-fated rearguard, is at present an inmate of the infirmary of the St. George's union workhouse, in the Fttlham Road, suffering from phthisis, the sequel to malarial fever. To an interviewer Mr. Bonny explained:—"I got it first of all in 1887, when I was with Stanley. The boat grounded on a sandbank in the river; it took three days to get her off; I got fever; fever afterwards off and on for ten years; fought against it, but it has broken me down at last I'm quite broken up now; left Iiiiig-very far gone, they say." Last year Mr. Bonny was living at Tor- quay, and Mr. Stanley sent him occasionally small sums of money, amounting altogether to about £ 20, but that bounty stopped in November. lIe was three years with Mr. Stanley, and his salary was Eloo a year, making E300. In addi- tion to this he got an honorarium of E", but he was prohibited by contract from publishing any narrative of his adventures which would interfere with the success of his leader's book. Mr. Bonny it should be added, had been ten years in the Army Medical Service before he joined Mr. Stanley, and served ilt the Zulu and Egyptian campaigns. By purchasing his discharge to go with the African explorer he forfeited the advantage of his military service.
A MONUMENT OF MR. VILLIERS.
A MONUMENT OF MR. VILLIERS. The idea is being expressed among politicians in London that, a monument ought to he erected in or near the Palnce of Westminster to the memory of the late 11 Father of the House of Commons." This is the more favoured because the continuous Parliamentary career of Mr. Villiers-jiisti over 63 years—is the longest in the whole of our constitutional history, His prede- cessor in "the Fathership," Ale. Christopher T'nlbot, sut continuously for the same constituency for just 60 years; while Mr. Gladstone was ill the House of COlli tnoml-hu I; not contilluously-for over sixty OIIH. The nearest approach to the career of Mr. Villiers was made hy George Byng, who was lirst returned for Middlesex at. the general election of 1780, as a colleague of Wilkes, and who died member for Middlesex in 1846, after the repeal of the Corn L i ws but he was out; of Parliament lor six yenrs, having been one of Fox Martyrs" in 1784, hut for which mischance even Mr. Villiers would 1101, have established a record. The fiasco over the Bright statue at. Westminster two years ago has a little frightened members from proposing similar Parliamentary memorials, but the case of Mr. Villiers it; so unique that the idea, now mooted, seems likely to take a practical shape when the House reassemble.

1- BETTING AMONGST LADIICS OF POSITION. The report of the ettse ot "Jay v.

This scandal of ladies of society indulging in heavy betting operations is,^ we regret to say, even more noticeable at Newmarket than it is at other places, and as though bel ting ill itself were not sufficient, we are well inlormed that it. is by no Uleans an uncommon thing lor ladies longbeforet.be races are over to leave the course for their houses in the town, where they will draw down the blinds, light; the candles, and play carll a to all extent that would iiialit3 a veteran of Crockford's blush. Before now nohle hllhes have been indicted for keeping a gaming house, and that, was when gaming was looked upon with a more tolerant eye than is now Mio case. It is not an edifying spectacle to see well-bred women, who should adorn the ranks into which they were born, run- ning after touts, trainers, grooms, bookmakers, and jockeys, for the latest tips, and it should be remarked that of all the totits the lady is the most, energetic.

A TREASURE-LOCATING MACHINE.
A TREASURE-LOCATING MACHINE. At Mount Holly, New Jersey, William Anderson Jlas perfected a machine for locating buried treasure. lie gave an exhibition of the machine at his home, in the presence of a party of sceptics. The machine, which is filled with a substance resembling gold filings, indicates, it is said, not only the locality of gold and silver, but the depth, width, and length of a vein of ore. First 200 dollars in gold, four watches, and three pairs of eye-glasses were placed in the centre of a table. Anderson took the machine, elevated it into position, and while other hands were tightly grasping the whalebone handles the instrument began to descend when it; came within range of the gold, despite the efforts to stop it. The strength of four men were unsuccessfully used in this endeavour. Then the party repaired to the yard, where a Ilole was dug several feet in depth, and the gold and watches were put in a pot and buried. The instrument was held in the air, and when brought in line it descended in a paralled position, but when placed over the excavation it fell perpendicularly. Then over the fields and through the woods the party went for nearly a mile. They first located the Mount Holly Baltic, it iiiove of a few inches denoted the Union Bank, and a slight turn made the instru- ment point to the Farmers' Dank.
AN ADVENTUROUS "SPECIAL."
AN ADVENTUROUS "SPECIAL." The Times correspondent, who has just accom- plished the 300-miles journey from Kassala to Suakim," claims that lie and his companion, Captain lInrerreJl, are the only Europeans who have travelled that long-closed route;" and he states that, although his camels were poor, lie got about thirty, miles a day out of them. At this rate the distance can to levered in ten days; but when Sir Samuel Baker was in the Soudan in 1865, it was regarded as a twenty days' journey from Suakim, to Kas&ata. On returning from his discovery of the Albert Nyanza, he struck across from Berber to Suakim, and it took twenty-six days to cover the intervening 275 miles.

He had been imprisoned for abducting the daughter of the bandmaster of one of the leading Scotch regiments, for desertion, for stealing n pony, and many other offences.

CONDITION OF WANDSWORTH PRISON.
CONDITION OF WANDSWORTH PRISON. We (Daily Chronicle) have reason to believe that the unsatisfactory condition of Wandsworth Prison is at present exciting a considerable amount of iiiielisilless at the Home Office. The prisoners are now being treated with an amount of severity which way at any moment lead to the most serious consequences. The Bltie-boolcs show that, with a smaller prison population, punishments are increasing both iu number and coi severity. In 1897,118 compared with 1896, there have been more fIogglIIgs, more confinements iu the punishment celIs, more dietary punishments, and more degradations of other sorts. Prisoners are sending up petitions to the Home Office com- plaining of the treatment to which they are being subjected.

TTUTBOOM IN WHISKY.
TTUTBOOM IN WHISKY. New distilleries, we are informed, are springing lip all over Scotland. At the present moment there are 158 ut, work, many of which are, it is said, scarcely able to keep pace with the orders of their customers. Two years ago the number was 132, and these manufactured 22\ millions of gallons of spirits in the twelve months. Last year the output of the whole of the Scottish distilleries was 2% millions of gallons, or close on 30 per cent. increase; while in England the in- crease was 10 percent., and in Ireland 13 per cent. Not only is the number of Highland distilleries rapidly increasing, but the money in many cases is being supplied by spirit dealers and bleuders in a large way of business.
SHOCKING CRIME AT SEVERAC.
SHOCKING CRIME AT SEVERAC. An abominable outrage has been perpetrated Inear Sévérac-Ie-Château. About dusk three i young men passing along the road near the rail- way line met and brutally ill-treated a servant girl eighteen years of age. Ili order to escape denunciation and punishment the scoundrels carried their victim, who had become unconscious, to the railway, and laid her on the lines in front of all approachillg train. Both the girl's legs were cut off by the wheels, but, so far from having the fatal result anticipated by the three youths, the shock restored her to her senses. The girl's screams soon brought help, and she was able to relate the odious crime of which Bile had been a victim, and also to name her assailants. All tbree have been arreated.

Tni^ATNINETY. According to the Amertcan Impers, Ambrose Chauey, ninety years old, and clad only in a night- dress, toiled three miles •" a snowstorm to save bis aged wife frQm death. The couple lived in the mountains, fifteen miles from Cumberland (Nevada) and three miles from their nearest neigh- bour. III some Way—they have not been able to explain IIOW-Ulair house caught fire after mid- night. They awakened in time only to escape in their night-clothea. The mountains were deep in snow, and the LO,Uperatiire was far below freezing. That his wile might not die before his eyes, the nonagenarian started as he was to get help from his neighbour, three miles away. The last mile of the terrible journey he made on his hands and knees. When help was sent back to Mrs. Chaney she was found unconscious near the smouldering ruins of her horn0.
