Ychydig wythnosau yn ol, bp Thomas Henry Cope yn traddodi darlith ddyddorol gerbron Cymdeithas Genedlaethol Gymreig Lerpwl ar Ddaear-ig Gogledd Cymru. Dr Thelwall Thomas oedd yn y gadair. Sylwodd y darlithydd fod daear Gogledd Cymru yn un o'r hynaf, a'i daear- eg yn un o'r rhai mwyaf dvrus. Perthynai ei ohreigiau i'r cofnodau boreuaf, ond nid oeddynt yn rhan o'r gragen oer gvnta £ o'r hon nid oedd ond ychyd; olion yn y byd.

Nid yr elfen kdaf ei dyddordeb i efr\-dydd daeareg oedd olrhain y gallnoedd roddasant ffurf mor amlwg ac arddunol i wlad wastad fel yr yd- oedd Cymru pan tan ddwfr. Yr oedd y ddam- caniaeth mai daeargrynfau aruthrol a ffurfiasant y mynyddoedd wedi ei chwalu; symudiadau araf, parhaus, dystaw, oedd wedi crychu ac a^enu y gragen allanol, ac wedi rhoddi i ni y ffurfiau dyddorol presenol. Yr oedd y rhyfeddod-an- ghredadwy i lawer-fod pellder amrywiol rhwng arwynebedd y mor a'r tir, a chodiad a disgyniad gwlad, yn cymeryd lie dros y cjtfanfyd heddyAV.

Bwyl Dewi Saqt at Caerphilly
Bwyl Dewi Saqt at Caerphilly BY CASTELLYDD. There is something urtique in living in an ancient and historic place like Caerphilly, when we oolebrate the memory of a saint that has lived such an exemplary life for the spiritual inter- est of his fellow countrymen in centuries gone by. The rustio life at St. David's, and the I military life at Caerphilly, were essentially of a j very different type, influence, and bearing. At the former place Dewi worked with all bis might and means in spreading the blessings of the gos- pel of peace, while at the latter place Robert Fitzhammon was scattering terror, rapine, dis- I may, and deselauon in tOO valleys of Gwent and Morganwg. A retrospective view of the careers of these contrary characters presented to us on the pages of history shows a marked difference in their impressions upon the enlightened minds of the present generation. The influence of the hero of the "House of Gloucester" is dormant long, long aerOj while that of the saint of the "House of David," is ascending higher and high- er every year, and will evidently continue to do so till it reaches the meridian of our national patriotism and devotion. What grander goal can one attain than to become the "Ptron Saint" of a nation t This is the result of a con- secrated life devoted to the amelioration of a benighted people who verily "sat in darkness and saw a great light," through this gospel beacon of centuries eone by. We compliment the Rev D. Richards, the esteemed pastor of Bethel In- dependent Churcih, Caerphilly, as the only patri- otic Welshman in the ancient citie who attemp- ted to commemorate our patron saint on Dydd Gwyl Dewi. This brilliant character of the Christian Chnreh is imbued with a patriotism that is genuine, which reflects the greatest credit on his charitable disposition and high official calling as ministers of the Gospel. With his characteristic generosity, on St. David's Day, eh treated all the Sunday School scholars at Bethel, Caerphilly, and SSaron, Bedwas, to a sumptuous tea. About 300 juveniles, with pa- rents and friends, partook of the dainty things provided bv Mr J. R. Georce, the famous cater- er of Caerphilly. Following the tea party a competitive meeting took place in Hie chapel under the presidency of the minister. The pre- sident in his opening address, to the children, told them that the saint the- were commemora- ting that day was Saint David Archbishop of St. David's, Pembrokeshire. He was a good man, and went about the country doing good by preaching to the people and improving their temporal and spiritual welfare. He was educa- ted at Whitland, where existed a University in his time. Here he learnt divinity and kind- red branches of learning, and become a famous scholar. The competitions were as follows:—Reading the first portion of the 5th chapter of John, David Peters. To tOO boy or girl under 7 years of age that will sing "French?' on the modulator, prize divided between Willie Thomas and Dflwyn Williams. A special prize was given to Blod- wen Moses. Mae'r Brenin yn y blaen," was effectively erong by the juvenile choir under the leadership of Mr S. R. Williams. Best reading of first three verses in the fourth chapter of John. Dora Williams, youngest daugh ter of Mr W. W. Williams, Board School, Caer- philly. Singing any tune by a family from the Canie- dydd". One party competed and the prize was awarded to William Peters, Bridge Mills, Caerphilly. Alderman Anthony, J.P., and Mr Tom Jones, Brynglas. adjudicated the recitations, and Mr David Daniel (Alawgerdd), the sindn.go. Votes of thanks to the chairman adjudicators, and the ladies that served at the tea terminated a most edifying and interesting meeting. Crugy- bar was sung as the finale.
Cruelty to a Fowl at Aber
Cruelty to a Fowl at Aber At the Caerphilly PoliceCourt on Tuesday — before Dr Maurice G. Evans and Mr Evan Owen —two Aber colliers, named Francis Miller and Edward Dover el, were charged with cruelty to a fowl, the property of a Mrs Yanghan, of Aber. On Sunday, the 20th ulfc., one of Devorel's fowls was fighting with one Mrs Vouran's. Miller was seen to throw a stona at the latter bird, bat did not strike it. The other defendant wafl seen to drop a "tone from his hand. Mrs Vaughan's boy saw the men throw ptones. The bird was examined on the 25th ult. bv P.C. Jones, and the rnfincctor of the Society for the Prevention of OrneHy to Animal*. At this time it was dead. It was ?reat.lv blis1. and the heart had burst. Th- blood I" of a. vrry black colour. Henry Priest, a yoil -T, mmr gave evi- dence for the deferco, and sta-red that he had aeen the bird's firhtin". The defendar' who remarked that the evidence for the prosecution was "only lies," TOP fined LR and costs each.
ELECTION OF POOR-LAW GUARDIANS.
ELECTION OF POOR-LAW GUARDIANS. A Rhondda elector writes: Now that the County Council election is over, it behoves us as electors in Pontypridd and surrounding districts to be in readiness and to select candidates for the forthcoming Guardians' election. A new feature in the constitution of the last Board of Guardians was the presence of lady members or women Guardians. Out of a total of fifty-three members, six ladies were returned, viz., Mrs W. H. Morgan, Mrs Hill-Male, and Mrs B. M. Lewis from Pontypridd; Mrs Abraham from Porth; and Mrs Phillips, Treorky. The Hon. Miss Bruce, who was returned unopposed for Moun- tain Ash, resigned her position owing to moval from the district. A perusal of the half -e yearly report shows that the ladies compare fa- vourably with the gentlemen in attendance at the various committees upon which thev had been appointed, as well as at the weekly meet- ings of the Board; Mrs Hill-Male is to be spe- cially complimented in this respect. It is to be hoped, however, that on the next Board we shall see at least three times the present num- ber of women, believing that for this work they are essentially fitted. The experience gained at home in the matter of defusing, clothing, and feeding must be of immense advantage when brought to bear upon the big Houses of the State. The number of children in the Cottage Homes, the women inmates as well as the female staff, call loudly that women who have some little leisure should come forth t,& exercise their lovin, kindness ,and their motherly spirit on their be- half. It is the testimony of one of the Ponty- pridd Guardians that the presence of ladies on the Board, though they speak not one word, is conducive to good, and certain it is that the in- mates themselves who have had flannel dresses substituted for unlined winsey one- and various other changes in the food as well as clothing, will be ready to endorse this statement. In vi of the above facts let the various Women's Liberal Associations look out among themselves, or in their neighbourhood, for the most fitted- n*™. necftssanlv highly educated—but women of vict and experienoe in household matters—and bring tliem forward and work energetically for them, so as to nensure their return. There is this year a special reason why many more women should be elected. Since the first of January the Infants' Life Protection Act is to be admin- istered by the Poor Law Guardians. This will give them the superintendanoe of babv farms, as homes receiving more than one child are to be liable to inspection. Reason tells us that in order to effectually carry on this work the per- sons appointed should be women.
SERIOUS ALLEGATION AGAINST…
SERIOUS ALLEGATION AGAINST A CWMBACH MAN. PROCEEDINGS AT PORTH. John Lloyd, who was described upon the charge sheet as an imdermanager, of Cwmbach, was summoned at the Porth, Police Court on Thursday by Mary Jane Humphreys, of Watts- town, to show cause etc. Mr C. Kenshole, Aberdare defended. The applicant was a single woman, and lived at Danygraig Terrace, Wattstown. In January, 1807, she was in ser- vice with the defendant, when she alleged im- proper intercourse took place between them,and a child was born on the 4th of September last. She had since left his employ, and had sent him a letter, to which she received no reply. She had not seen him afterwards personally to speak to. Hannah Humphreys, the complainant's sister, asked the defendant what he intended doing. when he denied having done anthing to her He' Mr Kenshole said that before calling the medical gentlemen, he would like to say a few words. The defendant held a responsible posi- tion at an Aberdare colliery, and was a married man with six children. He (Mr Kenshole) was very desirous that the complaisant should prove her case if she could. When the complainant came to the defendant's senaoe they were per- fect strangers and she arrived in the house on the 4th of January. On the following day, as he would be able to show, if necessary, the com- plainant oomplained of being unwell, and Mrs Lloyd immediately suggested that she should go and see a doctor. She went to Dr French, and asked her as a young girl if she had any reason for feeling unwell, when she replied "No.' She apparently got better, and there was no- thing to indicate there was anything wrong. Some time afterwards Mrs Lloyd found out mat the complainant could not do her work, and ul- timately gave her notice. The defendant had received no intimation whatever that he was the father of the child previous to receiving a telegram from Mr David Lewis, Caerphilly,who wished to see him. When seen by Mr Lewis, the defendant denied the allegation, and Mr Lewis subsequently admitted that the girl had named a young man as the father. He (Mr Kenshole) believed that this was only an at- tempt on the part of the young girl to extort some money from the defendant. The Bench, without hearing any evidence, dis- missed the case for want of corroboration on the part of the prosecution.
South Wales aid Monmouthshire…
South Wales aid Monmouthshire Sanitary Inspectors. Dr E. Watford, medical officer of health, Car- diff, presided over a meeting of the Seuth Wales and Monmouthshire Sanitary Inspectors' Asso- ciation held at the Cardiff Town Hall on Satur- day. There was a large attendance of members. Mr M. Roderick, road and sewer inspector, Rhondda, was adopted as an associated mem- ber of the association. Messrs Lasoelles Carr and David Dunoan, Cardiff, were nominated as honorary members. Messrs A. E. Leyshon (Barry) and David J. Johns (Pontypridd) were elected auditors. The Sanitary Inspectors' Superannuation Bill which it is proposed to introduce in Parliament, was then discussed. The secretary read what had transpired at the Council meeting where the matter had been under consideration. and stated that a. letter of regret had been received from Dr Williams, county medical officer, for being absent on ac- count of illness. Having reoeived a copy of the new journal he quite agreed with the motto, "Heb iechyd baich yw bywyd." The Chairman: I quite agree with him. (Laughter). Mr W. J. Hughes (Rhondda) moved a vote of sympathy with their president in his flness. This was seconded by Mr A. E. Leyshon, and carried. Proceeding to the discussion upon the Bill, Mr A. E. Leyshon proposed that the president, (Dr Williams), and secretary (Mr J. Towy Thomas) be apointed a deputation to wait upon the Parliamentry members of Monmoutbshire and Glamorganshire to secure their support. This he thought would be money well spent. (Hear, hear). Mr D. Vaughan proposed a resolution support- ing the Bill. Mr R. C. Jenkins, Cefn, seconded the motion, which was ultimately carried. Mr W. J. Hughes, who expressed himself in favour of the Bill, was of opinion that they should not now mutilate the Bill in its infancy. They would have an opportunity of improving upon it when it reached the Committee stage in the House of Commons. Mr A. E. Leyshon again proposed a resolution appointing the pre- sident and secretary to visit the different mem- bers of Parliament. Upon the suggestion of Mr J. T. Owen (Mer- thyr) Mr Ley hon agreed to include Dr Her- bert Jones (the treasurer). The motion was then seconded by Mr Warren (Cardiff) and carried. The chairman congratulated Dr Jones. Mr Towy Thomas (secretary), and Mr W. Frazer (Cardiff), upon the way in which they had ar- ranged the new journal. (Hear, hear). Several members expressed themselves as being pleased with the "get up" of the journal, which, by the way, is printed and published at the "Free Press' 'offices.
