THE DAWN OF A SETTLEMENT. THE railway director who refused yesterday to supply one of our reporters with infor- mation, on the ground that "you papers only inflame the men's minds," was a type of a rapidly diminishing class. i here are transactions which do not im- prove in appearance when they have an abundance of light thrown upon them, It has even been said of a certain class of persons that they prefer darkness to light, for a reason which is too welt known to need further elucida- tion here. No doubt men's minds may be inflamed, but we can afford to leave it with the public to decide whether the papers which plead for justice being done to a class of men who have no other channel through which they can make their wrongs known, or the employers who refuse to listen to these men, are most likely to inflame their minds. Nothing is more common than to blame the press, and yet it has almost in- variably happened that wrongs and cruelties reach the public ear and rouse the public sympathy through the press. Probably the railway director who refused the informa- tion asked for would have givn it readily, had thepress denounced the rail way servants. Wehope, however, that before the words which we are now writing come under the public eye the breach will have been healed, and the tremendous disaster which has been threatening South Wales top long for the g*od of trade averted. It would be a hideous outrage- to allow so serious an issue to spring from so inadequate a cause. We can hardly conceive it possible that the struggle will be much longer kept up. Some concession must be made, and the railway companies must feel that it is to them,, that every face is turned in this hour off anxious sus- pense. The matter is at. this moment being thrashed out in the hope of an early agreement, and we hope that the morning will carry good tidings.

EAST CARMARTHENSHIRE NOMINATION. THE nomination for East Yprtuarthenshire takes place to-day at Llandilo. So far Mr ABEL THOMAS has had the field all to him- self, and it is not at all probable that he will now encounter any opposition. For him this must be very gratifying, but there are, no doubt, a good many warlike Liberals in the Division who would have been more than ordinariiy delighted to have had an opportunity of smiting the Unionists and Oeercionistship and thigh. It the Tories J have not found a candidate or have not trotted one out, they cannot complain that they had not sufficient time. They have had years for the selection of a champion. If they had at any time fondled the delusion that they might win, they would have provided a candidate while the late member occupied the seat. But possibly the East Carmarthenshire Tories are not compounded so largely of gas and froth as many members of their party are in other Welsh constituencies, and therefore they form a more reasonable esti- mate than these others do of the probable result of a contest. Even had they not thought of putting a candidate in training while the late member was in possession, they had abundance of time after the issue of the writ. Between the issue of the writ and the day of nomination there was as long a space of time as if the convenience of the Tory party had been duly considered but, of course, it would be ridiculous to suppose that any such intention was har- boured. We will only go the length of assuming that the Tory electors had no hope of winning, even by the aid of those some- what mythical Liberal Unionists who pretend to be nearly all the head, body, and tail of the Liberal party-the head especially. They had the time they had the desire they had everything but the hope of victory. They would in all probability have suffered such a defeat that nothing but the rankest infatuation could have permitted them to claim to have obtained even a moral "victory." We suppose, then, we may take for granted that Mr ABEL THOMAS will be the only person nominated to-day, and that lie will also be returned to Parliament before the sun goes down. It is cur- rently reported that Mr THOMAS'S principal nominator will be his late rival, but now able and loyal supporter, Mr GWILYM EVANS. If this be so, it will amount to a full and overflowing redemption of his promise of support. It will also go a long way to prove that Mr EVANS has the interest of the Liberal party more at heart than some of his political opponents gave him credit for. There can be little doubt that Mr EVANS has both the will and the ability to render great service to the Liberal party in the county of Carmarthen. A good deal of capital was made out of his real or alleged political antece- dents, but we need not remind the intelli- gent Liberals of Carmarthenshire that it is quite possible to attach too much import- ance to objections of that nature. Many of our best politicians, and many of the brightest ornaments of both parties, would have been doomed to early extinction and cold neglect had their previous career been made a fatal objection to them. This is true in other departments than that of politics. Mr GWILYM EVANS, however, has time on his side, and we hope yet to see him in a position of honour among the most I loyal representatives of Welsh Liberalism in the House of Commons. There will be vacancies in the future for which his services will be in demand. Technically it is too soon to congratulate Mr ABEL THOMAS on his return, but we think we may now run the risk. His election takes place at the close of an exhausted session. Parliament still sits, but few Welsh members seem even to be haunting the precincts of the House. There is good reason to believe that, if spared and in good health, his career as a Welsh member will be one of the brightest on record among his countrymen.

SOUTH WALES NOTES. [BY COSMOS.] THE CHURCH IN THE RHONDDA. "COSMOPOLITAN" replies to "Welsh Na- tionalist as follows De»i 00"0"" A f",w flagn chiefly by tradesmen." Not so few they were, when yoti could number them by the hundreds, not ouly in the main-street, but all over the place. Yes, "chiefly by tradesmen," and those mostly Non- conformist tradesmen and in one instance there was not sutfiyient display at the front, be was obliged to hoist" a Rag at a back window also, when some Con- formist "tradesmen" made no demonstration at all. Of course "the opening of a new buildiug which is an ornament to the place." There was a chance for the PtJotre Noncons. to make a display of their candour and consistency, and that with all honesty to hurry on the worthy Mabon in his impetuosity. 1 have been long enough in this valley to witness the (consecration I very nearly said) opening or re-opening of nearly every Nou- contormist place of worship within the two Rhonddas. Could Nationalist" inform me upon which of these occasions (aud they have been many) was anything manifested by the Rhoudda. tradesmen bordering on the ovation witnessed at the consecration of the new building at Pontre I Aud I believe most of those places have been beautiful ornaments" to the various localities, I should like for the classic theologian W,N. to remember that aposteriori method of reasoning is vory old, and very indeed for us mortals. And in this instance I believe I am justified in making use of such words as hypocrisy and true colours," for a very old book tells me that Y,3 shall know them by their fruits." What may be the meaning of all this, forsooth? Has the golden calf any ii,fitieuce-.tiy hope of bringing him out of bondage ? Sir, my intention was not to attack aoy class of people, but to attack ali that shared in the late novel inconsistency. Upon second enquiry I find there was a truly important factor in the ministerial lines I ought to have exempted still, there was a fhg hoisted in tho window of a building that serves for a vestry to his chapel. It has always been my pleasure to defend the cloth, but I should like for those wearing it to be true to colours (in deerl as well as in word) in leading on the nia^HHs. If this "N." is a true representative of Welsh Nationality, may I be guided from the paths of such nationality." This is the character given us by other nations for Age,4 past, and it seems that the truth of the imputation is established in the very personality of this immaculate defending Welsh Nationa- list." "Hwrt gwydlam felldigel(ilu. "-I am, &c., COSMOPOLITAN. ON THE FLAGS AT TY FOBERT. THE annual puppy show of the Llanharran and Ystrad hunt, yesterday, was a very pleasant affair, The kennels at Ty Robert are healthily situated upon an elevation, and the cleanliness of the buildings, and the excellent condition of the pack bear tribute to the care of the huntsman. The entry amounted to 9 couples, and though Mr 2 Blandly Jenkins, the master, subsequently stated that they were not as good as last year, yet he considered that they were better adapted for the country. The hounds are cross-bred, between the Welsh hound and the foxhound, and the judges, in making their selection, appeared to choose those hounds which mere closely assimilated the two types. Stately, by Sultan out of Trinket, is a pied bitch with a characteristic Welsh head, capital back and loins, and a long, low, lengthy frame. The legs and feet were scarcely so good as they might be. Many of those looking on preferred Countess, a red bitch more nearly approaching the English type, but with more quality and drive in her than the winner. Dainty was another little bitch which was much ad- mired, and which I believe was successful for Mr Llewelyn at the Pontypridd dog show. Wonder, walked by Mr llavies, took the fancy of connoisseurs, though rather thick in the shoulder. The dogs were not the equal of the bitches in number or merit. Eventually the decision fell upon Danger, a black and tan. An inspection of the pack followed, and then the company entered their vehicles and proceeded to the High Corner House to luncheon. Here the assemblage was largely augmented, over a hundred sitting down to a repast which wag bounteous both in solid and liquid. Fox huntmg was toasted, and Mr W.J. Buckley, the master of the Carmar- thenshire, in replYj mentioned how valuable the sport was to agriculturists, and stated that on a recent visit to Ireland in search of horses the farmers complained of the injury which had accrued to horse-breeding by the stoppage of hunting in that country. Need- less to add that the health of the noble master of the Llanharran was received with enthusiasm, and that everyone reciprocated the mottoes on the walls, which wished success to the squire and prosperity ta the Llanharran Hounds. I-OOKING FORWARD. THESE reunions are always fascinating for the hunting man. They mark the flight of the summer, and, moreover, furnish a hint that the tentative period of cub-hunting can not be far off. This year, though, the wtlod- lands are not likely to be disturbed for another month or more, for a lot of the hay is uncut yet, and the corn has not begun to change colour. But a puppy show invariably gathers together some of the real sportsmen of the hunt, who like to see what they will have to ride after. The music of the beauties is sweeter far than any chorus which ever took a prize at an eisteddvod, and though many people would prefer to hear Patti give me a stout fox and the pack singing a merry tune at its brush. However, hounds are dumb at this time of the year, but anticipation and retrospection help to assuage the regret that the season is not always winter, and that there is no- thing else to do but to go foxhunting. Could anybody whose soul is in the chase ever become satiated with good runs ? Each one is so different from another that the ex- haustion of novelty appears to be impossible. But perhaps it is the six months' abstinence which increases the fervour. If we had hunting always with us we should soon get tired of it. At puppy shows we look both forwards and backwards. The acquaintance at the covert side is recognised and remem- bered, and while recalling the incidents of the past, we speculate whether the future will unfold as many joys as its predecessor. HOW TO HONOUR THE DIVA. MENTION of Patti reminds me that the diva was in great form at Neath yesterday. It is very good for the Empress of Song to give her great talents in aid of the poor. But she is not alone in this respect. Here is a cutting from the Era Madame Marie Roz', who has been on the continent for the put six weeks, has combined business with pleasure. Her annual concert tour in France has been a brilliant success. At Mont Dore, her favourite watering-place, Madame Roze gave a concert for the benefit of the poor which realised over 11,000f. To show their appreciation of her generosity, the mayor and municipal council have unanimously decided to call tho new street at Mont Dore "La Promenade Marie Rnzp." If Neath has a new street which requires a name, why not Patti Parade ?

HOUSE OF LORDS.—THURSDAY. The Lord Chancellor took his seat on the woolsack at quarter to four o'clock. BILLS READ A FIRST TIME. The Local Taxation (Customs and Excise Duties) Bill, the Police Bill, and the Police (Scotland) Bill were brought from the Commons and read a first time. A DOCK AT GIBRALTAR. Lord SIDMOUTH asked for information as to the proposed dock at Gibraltar. Earl BROWNLOW replied that owing to the ditticulties that had arisen in carrying out the original terms, the matter had been referred to a departmental committee, who had, he was in- formed, concluded their inquiry, but bad not yet reported. The House adjourned at quarter-past five o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS. -TRuitsi),&Y. The Speaker took the chair at a five minutes past three o'clock. ENGLAND AND FRANCE. Mr S. SMITH asked whether the Government had entered into negotiations with France respect- ing Madagascar. Sir JAKES FEHQUSSON said the House was aware that France had for some years desired to procure a treaty with Madagascar securing her protectorate over the island. In no case would it be untertained by her Majesty's Government without full security of the rights of her Majesty's subjects and religious liberty for all. MR HRVeH: asked whether the right bon. gentle- mu would state what truth there was in the statement in that day's newspaper with regard to an agreement having been arrived at between her Majesty's Government and France. Sir J. FKR«USSON An agreement has bean concluded with the French Government with regard to the sphere of influence in Africa, and the tenor of it will be communicated to Parlia- ment on Monday. Sir JOHN KENXAWAT asked whether there was any truth In the report that the Government bad entered into negotiations with France for giving up Sierra Leone. Sir J. FBBGCSSON There is no idea of auy such cession. THE MORFA COLLIERY DISASTER. Col. BLCNDKLL gave notice that nest Tuesday be would ask the Home Secretary witip, reference to the report upon the Morfa Colliery Explosion, whether be would take into consideration the propriety of requiring, whenever shot firing in coal takes place in a "fiery" seam during a shift, whether inflammable gas has been reported or not, that the explosive employed in firing a shot shall be so used with water or other contrivance as to prevent it from inflaming the gas, or be of such a nature that it cannot inflame gas. THE JEWS IN RUSSIA. Mr SMITH inquired whether the Government could afford the House any information as to the Jews in Russia, Sir JAMKS FEKGUSSOS was able to say that bet M;tjesLy' Miuisters at Si Petersburg bad re- ported that the Russian Government denied em- phatically the truth of the statements recently appearing in the Times on this subject. PUBLIC BUSINESS. Some discussion took place as to the order of the remaining business, in the course of which Mr W. H. SMITH said the Government hoped to bring the wension to a close on Saturday week. POTATO CROP IN IRELAND. Mr A. J. BALFOUR, in answer to Mr Webb, said it appeared troin local official inquiries that while the earlier putato crop in county Waterford owing to bad weather was deficient in yield, the later crops, of which the Champion potato forms a large portion, are still ripening, and if the present improvement in the weather continues there will be no ground to apprehend scarcity in the coming winter. He was fully alive to the possible gravity of the situation, but did not anticipate serious consequences. MR T. CADMAN'S SUPERANNUATION. Mr DATII) THOMAS I beg to aiik the Secretary to the Treasury whether in referencs to the aupperannuation allowance of Mr Thomas Cad- man, late her Majesty's Inspector of Mines in the south-western district, the Coal Minea Regulation Act, 1872, only created one class of inspectors whether in a letter dated 11th October, 1887, from the Home Office to the Treasury it was stated that certain persons appointed under the act of 1872 were within the department known as asuistant inspecters, but were appointed as inspectors and exorcised the powers of inspectors, the statute authorising the appointment only of inspectors and, further, that the Secretary of State concurred in the view that to deprive these officers now of the augmentation provided under section 40 of the Superanuation Act, 1859, and promised to inspectors of coal mines in a Treasury minute of that saino year, would operate with severe hardship upon them and their families, n I would constitute a real grievauce of whicii they might justly complain if any steps bad been taken by the Treasury tc obtaiu the opinion of the law ufficdrs of the Crown all to the legality of witholaing frorfi Mr Cadman the full superannuation allowance promised in- spectors of co ii mines in tbt4 Treasury minute of 14th June, 1859 and whether, having regard to die necessity o( maintain!g good faitli with the servants of the Scate as tv tiperaniiiiation, the Treasury will once more reconsider Mr Cadman's Mr Jackson: The act referred to created only one clans or inspectors, and the words spscitied are correctly quoted from a Home Othce ")..ter to the Treasury, dated lXtii October, 1887. I have directed that all opinion be obtained trvm the law officers of the Crown as to the legality of the pension award which has been made in the case of Mr Cadman. When that opinion is before me I will consider whether it renders necessary any modification of the Treasury decision. MISSION TO THE VATICAN. Sir J. FKRGUSSOS informed Mr Summers that the Government could not agree to a return of all paper" relating to the special mission of the Duke of Norfolk to the Vatican," because there was no such papers and no such mission. (Laughter.) The Expiring Laws Continuance Bill was read a third time and passed. The House then went into committee of supply. (LEFT sirrING The Standard believes that the Government will be urged by some of their followers to re- introduce the Tithes Bill next session without the redemption clause. It is thought that the ques- tion of redemption would be better dealt with in a depitrate measure. Mr Octavius V. Morgan, M.P., has paired with Sir John Colomb from to-day, and with Mr Stanley Leighton for the winter session. Mr Morgan, accompanied by Mrs and Miss Morgan, will start for Canada in September, returniug home for Christmas. The Earl of Dunraven has left town to join his yacht, the Valkyrie, at Cowes. Mr W. R. Symonds has been commissioned to paint a life-size portrait of Mr H. Giizean Raid, president of the Institute of Journalists, which it is intended to present to him at the annual con- ference of the institute to be held at the JSir- mingham Council House on September 27th, in recognition of his great services aa first president of the institute, and especially in connection with the measures which resolted in the granting of a Royal charter.

j LONDON LETTER. LSPEOIALLY WIRED. I [FROM OCR LONDON- CORRESPONDENT, I LoNcesr, Thursday Night. LAST DAYS. Mr Smith is not going to repeat the error of last week. When the House oi Commons meets ot Saturday, it will do so under rules which will permit the sitting to extend to whatever may be necessary to com- plete Supply. Mr Smith confirmed the statement telegraphed to you last night, that the state of business is now such as will permit the prorogation taking place on Saturday week. This will be achieved by the simple device of rushing through, in a couple of sittings, the large majority of the notes in Supply. The navy has this session had only four hours snatched out of a single sitting. To-morrow it will share the sitttng with the army. The busiues of these two great departments is rattled ofl in an almost empty House at the fag end of the session. BROKEN PLEDGES. This state of things has been brought about during a session which the Govern- ment entered upon, solemnly pledged to bring forward the estimates at an early period, when they might be duly discussed. So far from that pledge being redeemed, the estimates have this session, even more than usual, drifted on to the closing days. DESERTED BENCHES. The House has presented a forlorn ap- pearance this evening. The few Minister- lalists present sit together on the two front benches, Ministers above the gangway, and the rank and file below. They are just numerous enough to give these two benches a moderately crowded appearance. Behind all is a waste-nearly all the notables are gone, and Sir William Harcourt, who remained in town over yesterday for Mr Causton's parliamentary dinner, went into the country to-day. Ha finally made up his mind that he will not this session deliver his usual trenchant review, for which the second reading of the Appropriation Bill affords opportunity. He is of opinion that things have gone so well for the Opposition that the situation is only likely to be marred by further exertion. The Irish members will probably take an opportunity of delivering a few speeches on the Appropriation Bill, and Sir George Campbell is pretty certain to have a few remnants of speech left. But there will be nothing in the nature of a set debate. NOTABILITIES STILL IN EVIDENCE. Lord Hartington, who was here yester* day, has not put in an appearance to-day. Quite unexpectedly, Sir Henry Jamen looked in, and, seating himself on the Con. servative side below the gangway, had t little chat with his Tory friends. By acci- dent, he occupied the very place that used to be his in the session of 1873, when he and Sir William Harcourt sat on the front bench below the gangway and worried Mr Gladstone, whose Government was then tottering to a fall, weighed down by the Irish University Bill. Mr Sexton is still here, and Mr Labouchere's desire to assist the Govern- ment in carrying on the business of the nation delays his departure for Wiesbaden, whither he is bent as soon as is compatible with his duty to his Queen and country. Mt Labouchere does not share Sir William Harcourt's view of the impolicy of prolong- ing discussion, and will have something tc say on the second reading of the Appropria- tion Bill. DISTINCTIONS WITH A DIFFERENCE. Sir George Campbell still lingers round the spot where he has so acutely enjoyed himself during the last few weeks. He is quite a hero to-day in recollection of his speech of yesterday, in which he spoke oi himself as belonging to a band of "devoted guerillas. Members will have it that what he said was" a band of gorIllas." and though Sir George solemnly dissents, his contradiction has no effect. ENGLAND AND FRANCE. The House heard with satisfaction the announcement, almost casually made by Sh James Fergusson, that an agreement hat been concluded with France, dealing with spheres of influence in Africa." Much curiosity is displayed to learn the exact nature of the agreement which will be un- folded on Monday. The announcement gives iresh interest to Lord Salisbury's reference at the Mansion House dinner last night to the occupation of Egypt. He made it very clear that, having brought about the blooni of prosperity in Egypt, there is no intention to withdraw thfi gardeners. There is no doubt that in anj discussion of spheres of influence en. tered upon with France the question of Egypt would crop up, and as an agreemenl has been amicably arrived at, it would appear that France is obliged to be content with the status quo. It will be particularly interesting to learn whether the settlement come to in Kast Africa includes any arrange- ment of the burning question in Newfound- land. VITAL TO IRELAND. The fine summer weather which stiJJ j shines over this part of the island is worth untold gold to the British agriculturist. But the state of the weather is even ot closer interest in Ireland. A spell of we1 weather now would unquestionably brinj about the utter failure of the potatc crop, and something like the state d things in the old famine times. Ml Balfour, who is not accustomed to displaying particular concern for any- thing in Ireland unconnected with the police or the landlords's rents, impressively assured the House to-night that the Irist Office is fully alive to the possible gravity oi the situation in view of the potato blight and are giving the subject their fullest akention. Everything depends upon the weather, and if the improvement is main tained the calamity hanging over Irelant may be averted. j STILL THEY COME." f It is curious to hear in the Petition Offiet that petitions still come in favour af inquir) into conventual and monastic institutions During the now closing session five havt been presented, with an aggregate of ovei 18,000 signatures. It was thought that the movement had died with its founder ana condudtor, Mr Newdegate. He, during his long term of membership, was always grue' somely interposing with a petition in favout of such inquiry, and once a year he movei a resolution demanding it. The annual performance had grown a little melancholy, till one year it leaped into liveliness by being the means of discovering Major OGorman. WHAT THE o'ooRMAN SAID. It was in opposing Mr ..Newdegates motion that Major O'Gorman made hit, maiden speech, containing that famous I allegory in which he personated, with singa, lar dramatic force, a nun confronted in a con' ¡ vent by a commissioner appointed under Mg Newdegate's proposed resolution. "Thfl major was endowed with a voice something like what the hippopotamus would speak ini' it could talk, and his eJforts to mimic th< mincing tones of the nun brought about scene of uncontrolled merriment, the like of which is never seen in these degenerate days.
