THOUSANDS OF TESTIMONIALS FROM AI.L PARTS. Carlton, near Nottingham, February 27,1883. "Messrs the Midland Counties Drug Company, Lincoln. "Gentlemen.—Some ten years ago my wife became lame with ulcerated legs. I tried every recommenda- tion for a cure, and also a large number of doctors (some of them very clever men with diseases of this kind), but to no effect. After being in this state for betwixt five and six years, I determined to try your Blood Mixture as a last resource, as she at that time appeared to be tt death's door and had to be put to bed, having no use in her legs; and I am thankful to say, after taking 13 of your small bottles she experienced a perfect cure. This is now four years ago since the cure was effected, and there is no sign of the complaint returning. I may add that it had cost us scores of pounds trying one remedy after another previous to taking your invaluable medicine, for which I return you my sincere thanks. I am, gentlemen, yours grate- fully, C.S. P.S.-You may make what use of the above you think fit, but in the event of advertising it kindly keep back my name. You can, however, refer anyone making private enquiries to my address as follows C S Midland Station, Carlton, near Nottingham. IMPORTANT ADVICE TO ALL.—Cleanse the vitiated blood whenever you find its impuri ties bursting through the skin in pimples, erup. tions, or sores cleanse it when you find it ob- structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. As this Mixture is pleasant to the taste, and warranted free from anything injurious to the most delicate constitution of either sex, ..he pro prietors solicit sufferers to give it a trial to test its value.

Cardiff was charged with attempting t:.commit suicide on the Rumney Moors, on the 25th It. I -Sergeai-it Aphn stated that on the evening in question he was called to the defendant's house in Broadwav, and found her sitting in a chair in the front "room She appeared to have taken poison, beim* very stiff in ner limbs, and frothing at trie mouth. He asked her what she had been doing, and she admitted bavins- taken mice poison, but stated that she did not know what she was doing. Witness gave her an emetic, and afterwards called in medical aid. She had been under the treatment of the Infirmary surgeon since. The Magistrates' Clerk (addressing the husband of the defendant, who was in court) Has any- thing of this sort happened before ?-No, :3ir. Do you think if the magistrates discharged her it will happen again ?-I will do my best 'to pre- vent it. She has a sister who is continually tor- meuting her. Defendant All I have to say, sir, is that it is through the persecution of my sister. She has been grieved with me ever since I hare been married, and she has done her best to separate us. The husband gave every assurance that care would be taken of his wife, aDd the case was dis- missed, the Bench observing that if the sister continued to trouble her, she could seek the pro- teerion of that court. Defendan t I wish to thank Sergeant Aplinfor his kindness to me. He has saved my life. .s:&

---A SWANSEA SLANDER CASE.
A SWANSEA SLANDER CASE. THE CONSTABLE AND THE LADY TOBACCONIST. At the Glamorganshire Assizes hel'1 '■<- Swansea, on Wednesday—before "s'u- J^me« Charles Matbew—Mrs Lewis, tobacconist, Wind- street. Swansea, sought to recover £100 damages from P.C. Edwin Johns, a member of the Swansea Borough Police Force, for alleged assault and slander on the 31st March last.—Mr Benson (in- structed by Messrs Robinson Smith and Co. Swansea), appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr David Lewis, Recorder of Swansea (instructed by Mr Jenkm .Tones, Swansea), for the defendant. Mr Benson, in opening the case, said that the action was brought to recover damages for assault committed on the 31st March, 1892, and for cer- tain slanders spoken and uttered on that day agamst the plaintiff. The defendant denied the assault, or that he spoke the alleged words, and on this issue was joined. The facts of the case were these. About five years ago plaintiff was marric-d to the late Mr Lewis, who carried on the business of a toDaccomst in a shop in Wind-street, Swansea. About tv.*°-and-a-half years «.go her husband died, and leitiier with a young baby, and she continued to carry on the business, and lived since then with her mother, Mrs May, at 199, Kensington-terrace. After being there two or three months, the defendant, who was a constable in the Swansea Borough Police Force, became a lodger iu the same house. The plaintiff and the defendant were then apparently on friendly terms, but on the olst of last, the defendant thought that the friendship had come to an end. why, he did not know. On that night, Mrs Lewis and her niotaer, accompanied by P.C. Davies, were ven from the shop to the house in a cab, and V hen they got there they saw defendant outside in his smrt sleeves, and apparentlyin an excited state. i-ney got out and then he used certain bad words, and said that he had been looking out for Mrs Lewis. When going into the house the aetenaant was pushed back by the other con- stable, over whose shoulder he got hold of Mrs Lewis by the throat, and said that she had swindled Mr Robinson Smith, who carried through the husband's property, and MrCrapper tne auctionee-, who made the valuation. De- iendant at that time said that she had forged licrI name and swindled everybody as she went along, and that he didn't know whether she was a Mrs Herbert or a MrsDavies. Tilen he bad also uttered a very gross slander m using the following words, Ihe child does not belong to yon it is my own flesh, ana blood." The suggestion was that tne defendant, wno hud been a lod^r in the house, was the father of the child, that it was illegitimate, and that Mrs Lewis was an unchaste, impure, and immoral woman. 1\1rs Lewis was of course angry, and she and her mother and the child returned to the shop the same night, and slept there instead of at home. Defendant had used words to a similar effect to the servant girl, Elizabeth Williams, viz., that he was going to "finish" Mrs Lewis and Mrs May, bui, that he would not touch her and the baby, because it was his own flesh and blood. A worse slander than to tell the servant girl, who waited upon him and Mrs Lewis, could not be made. Mr Benson then read a letter which Messrs Robinson Smith and Son wrote to defen- dant, stating that Mrs Lewis had no desire to proceed, but if he did not withdraw the words uttered she had no alternative but to proceed to vindicate her character. No renlv was mndp and a writ was then issued. A repl y was then received from defendant s solicitor, which pointed out the improbability of defendant having uttered the alleged slander, and saying that it would be very inadvisable to proceed as defendant was poor in circumstances, and depended only upon his waares. His Lordship asked if it was not possible to his waares. His Lordship asked if it was not possible to arrive at a settlement at this stage of the case. Mr Benson and Mr Lewis thereupon briefly con- sulted, but the result was that Mr Benson called upon the plaintiff to give her evidence. Mrs Lewis accordingly entered the box, and upon the plaintiff to give her evidence. Mrs Lewis accordingly entered the box, and corroborated the opening statements. She said that when her husband died she had a baby six months' old. Her husband's will was proved by Mr Smith, and valued by Mr Crapper, and de- fendant was oneof theesecutors. Wiienshe reached home with the others in the cab on the nig-ht of the 31st of Aiorch defendant was outside the I house, and was like a madman." He aftewards struggled with tbe policeman in the passage, and catching "hoid of her throat said "Let me finish tbe b- His Lordship In what condition wa.s he ? Plaintiff He was not drunk nor sober, but he knew what he wa- doing. Her throat was marked for several days afterwards. Cross-examined by Mr Lewis: Defendant and her husband were always on friendly terms, and she believed they called each other "cousins." He was ajo godfather to her child. She had been for a drive with P.C. Davies previous to this. Mr Lewis: Defendant. and P.C. Davies had quarrelled, and as Mrs Lewis got between to separate them,she was hurt. Plaintiff: No I didn t. Defendant did not say that he loved the lnbyas his own flesh and blood, but said that it "was" his flesh and blood. Elizabeth May, plaintiff s mother, corroborated her evidence, and said that the marks on her throat were to be seen for some davs. 1, Elizabeth Williams, plaintiff's servant girl, saia tLat oil the morning in question she took breakfast to the defendant at Section House, where he was employed. He told her then that he was afraid Mrs May would poison him, but he told her that she would certainly not do so. Defendant then said that before he would finish with them he would cut their throats. He came home in the afternoon, and in the evening she fetched him some whisky. He then told her that he was waiting for ttiob s, that he would cut their throats, and take their hearts out. He added that he would not hurt her and the little baby, because it was his own flesh and blood." James Chapman, cab proprietor and driver, said that he drove Mrs Lewis home on the night of the assault. and that he saw defendant outside the house, where he used very dirty" language. Mrs Lewis then went into the house, and, hearing Mrs Lewis scream, he entered and released her from defendant. This closed the case for the plaintiff, after which evidence was given by P.C. Edwin Johns, the defeiidiiit who said that he was a great friend of the plaintiff's late husband, and that in fact they were like brother. Mrs Lewis and her mother had induced him to lodge with then- and during the time lie was there he became very fond of the chiid. After her husband's death he as an executor of t, I P. will had rendered the plain- £ °nie assistance, and one commercial traveller from Caraiii telling him that she could not eet stociw UD.ess someone became securitv, he told him t.iat he would do his best for her. 'When he went home off duty (dinner time) the servant girl told him that Mrs May had said that if he (de.enc.ant/ toucned the child she would get him out of the house, and would see Captam ColquViotiii to get the bread out of his mouth. He replied, rsever mind thatafter which the "id s, at on his kpee. Defendant then denied he tOid the girl that the child was his "own nesii and blood." In the evening Mrs Lewis, | Mrs May, and P.C. Davies, with whom he jva? on t"rtns of friendship, carne to turn him out, but he told them he would not go without proper notice. When P.C. Davies ap- peared defendant thought he was going to be turned out, but he "resisted the eviction," and the plaintiff tried to separate them, and said. "Mr Davies, you don't know that man be kdl you." Defendant requested her to stand back, as he had nothing to do with her. He loved thv child for the sake of his dead father. He never had occasion to accuse the plaintiff of unchastity, or of committing any misdemeanour by cheating or swindling. Cross-examined He was always friendly with Mrs Lewis, and had no ill-feeling towards her now. Ho told the girl that he was afraid Mrs May would poison him. His Lordship: What did she say to you ? Defendant She called me a b Welshman. (Laughter.) Defendant added that on the Sundav previous Mrs Lewis and Mrs May threatened him with the poker and the paraffin lamp, and said they would fetch Mr Davies and their brother to turn him out. P. C. Davies (92) said that he accompanied Mrs Lewis and Mrs May home m a cab on the above night, and he and defendant had a scuffle inside the house. He, however, didn't see the defendant assaultMrs Lewis, but he told her that she had swindled Mr Smith and Mr Crapper. Witness did not hear defendant say that she had forged his name, but he did say that the child was his own flesh and blood Mr David Lewis then addressed the jury, and His Lordship, in summing up, said it was a great pity that they had to expose the case in this way. This was quarrel between old friends, and when old friends fell out they fell very far apart. Defendant was a very intimate friend of the plaintiff's husband, but some- how a husband's intimate friend was never very acceptable to the wife's family. (Laughter.) The plaintiff and her mother had evidently got tired of the "old friend" and wanted to get rid of him. Referring to the fact that the defendant was very excited on the. night in question, his lordship said that the inhabitauis of this part of the Principality, like evern-iother part of the realm, were rather excitable, especially when they had a shilling's worth ol whiskey they were then excitable beyond bounds. (Laughter.) Fortunately no harm had occurred in thescuflie in the house, and with regard to its being said that she had cheated a lawyer she must have been uncommonly clever to do so (Laughter.) The jury would bear in mind that defendant was in a violent temper, aud would make every allowance for him under the circum- stances. The most serious part of the case was the alleged statement of the defendant that the child was his and not that of the plaintiff's hus- band. Did he use such an expression ? Defen- dant said he had not, and it seemed extremely improbable that he did. After a brief consultation the jury, without retiring, leturned a verdict for the plaintiff for £ 10. Mr Benson then asked for judgment to that amount and costs. j His Lordship assented, and asked Mr Benson to look into the position which defendant uccu- pied. He certainly thought some consideration should bv shown him, and lie w; bound to say that so far as his own view was concerned defen- dant had given his evidence fairly to the Court, and he (h:s lordship) was favourably disposed towards him. Doffciidaiu had (riven way to his temper on this occasion, but that was all that could be said against him. .u. 1:#

| THE ALIEN CHURCH IN |WALES.
THE ALIEN CHURCH IN WALES. I DISESTABLISHMENT AND DISEN. DOWMENT. TO THE EDITOR. "e StR, There was thetrue ring about "Silurian's* remarks on this question in Tuesday's issue. May I be allowed to add a word on the samt subject ? There are ominous rumours in the English press of this question and of that being dealt with, and not a word of the great Welsh grievance. To my mind the present time should see the culminating point of the agitation for re- igious equality. It is too soon to merely watch with confidence what may turn up. Every Welsh member should be informed in some detail of the measure, nothing short of which would satisfy the es people. It would be a thousand pities if the question was approached in ether than the most Radical fashion. Is it not then wrong to send simply a phrase to the House of Commons and permit it to be expanded at will into an Act of Parliament by the introducer or the Wehh party ? Wales has, with splendid symuathv and disinterestedness, done her best for Ireland. Now persistent, aggressive agitation is necessary to prevent her own claims from being ig-nored. In my humble opinion the Liberal Federation should meet and pass a scries of resolutions covering the main features that must be embodied in any measure of Disestablishment and Disendowment. This would incite discussion in the Press and awaken the keen watchfulness of every Liberal so that any half-hearted Bill, any recognition of the Church's ancient endowments as being other than the State's, or, in other words, the people's, would be immediately cried down with all the certain ty and indignant emphasis of a people thoroughly iniormed on the aim and object of their long and bitter agitation. Wales has shown itself to he a nation of light and leading on political questions, and let its first great measure be thorough, certain, and sweeping, a true model for the reforming act.- of the iuture. But, sir, the time has not come for rest let us still agitate with all the intensity that certain victory inspires, and let Whales shew by one magnificent effort that it possesses not only the patience to endure, but the courage to demand signal and retributive redress in spite of luke. warm friends or open foes.—I am, &c., LLOYD MEYRIUK. Cardiff, 3rd August, 1892.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AT NEATH.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AT NEATH. Late on Tuesday evening information WJM received at the borough police-station, Neath, that a woman living at the Green had attempted to commit suicide. Police-ser- geant Price proceeded to the spot and found Elizabeth, the wife of Walter Hibbert, with a rope around her neck fastened to the balusters. The rope was as tight as possible around the neck .-tiid the woman was in a prostrate condition, having all but accomplished her purpose. She was immediately cut down, and Dr Lewis wa= sent for. After some time, sho was restored to consciousness. It will be remembered that Mrs Hibbert was committed to Wake her trial at the Assizes on a charge of the manslaughter of her sou. In the course of a quarrel with her husband she aimed a blow with a poker at her husband, and the child running in between received the blow, which subsequently proved fatal. This ap- parently was the cause of her attempt to take away her own life.

Mr Cadby has for years past been en- gaged in work of a somewhat similarcharacter,and was particularly successful among the London cabmen, he being an aid" whip" himself. His methods differ greatly from those generally adopted by town missionaries. He does not wear the black raiment and white "choker" of the minister, and when in the court takes his seat among the crowd. Then, too, bis manner is engaging, and he never introduces himself as a missionary. I believe," said Mr Cadby, that before any material good can be done among the unfortunate people who are brought up at our police-court, their affections must be won. One must show them that they are not abandoned by the worJd- that an interest is taken in them. I never speak of a man's past, although I may know it-I paint a bright future for him. Then, it is no use preach- ing to a person who is hungry. I invite him to a coffee-house, and. during a meal, have a word with him. If it be "drink," well, I produce a pledge ciird and, thanks to the philanthropic spirit of a number of the gentlemen in the neigh- bourhood, I am able to give the man a lift-I man something which will give him a chance of securing employment. And we don't stop there, for when the man is in a proper frame of mind we ask God's help, and keep him in sight as long as we can." What is the main cause of crime in Cardiff ? queried the reporter. Is it drink ?" "Drink undoubtedly is the besetting sin. Most misery and degradation is due to its influ- ence, but much evil is wrought from other causes. Our social system is not what it should be. Poverty, as a rule, follows drink; but poverty very often incites to an indulgence in strong liquors. I am of opinion that many of the poorer classes—the submerged tenth—drink to drown their sorrows. It is only when intoxicated that they feel happy." The reporter asked what was the nature of the employment found for discharged prisoners, and Mr Cadby replied,- That depends upon the circumstances. Should the men be unskilled labourers we have, thanks to the kindness of a couple of Rhondda Colliery owners, been able to find them work at the collieries. We make small grants and ascer- tain how the money is spent. In one case, through meeting a man at the prison gates, who was just released after serving six months for assaulting his wife, I have been able to effect a reconcilia- tion, and my society voted a sufficient graut to place him in a small business, and the couple are now living happily. You are not, then, one of those people who relieve a tramp with a tract without stopping to inquire whether or not he is deserving of 8upport ?" No, God forbid. All of us are the creatures of circumstances to a far greater extent than those who are not down in the world are fain to imagine. Given the conditions and surroundings of some of the poor people with whom I am brought into contact, which of us could conscien- tiously say that we would have been able to resist the temptation ? To succeed in "rescue" work, it is necessary that the missionary should place himself in the position of his subject. There must be no parade. The unfortunate, down- fallen, must feel that there is none of the Phanseean spirit. How is the mission supported ?" We need a much bigger income to carry out our programme in it- entirety, and if you are p-oing to print any of this talk kindly let it be known that parcels of cioth In g-iiieii women's, and children's—would be very useful to me for discharged prisoners, whose appearance not infre- quently bars the door to their securing decent employment. Our president (the Rev C, J. Thompson, M.A., of St John's), our hon. trea- surer (the RevJ. R. Buckley, of Llandaff). or our hon. secretary (Mr Fred W. Brett, of Islwyn House, Crwys-road), would be pleased to receive any subscriptions to help a'ong the work. I can guarantee that if any money sent will be expended with every care. Clothing parcels could be sent to me at 60, Llantrissant-street. Cathays." Incidentally, mention was made of the police, and Mr Cadby said, "I have been told that until recent years the Cardiff polioe did not look with favour upcn rescue workers. Things must have changed wonderfully. There is not an official in the court who does not help me in every way, from Mr Lewis, the Stipen- diary Magistrate, to the ushers. Mr Lewis frequently puts prisoners back to the cells so that I may have an oppor- tunity of talking to them. Sir Mackenzie, the chief constable, too, has shown me every courtesy: and I feel that the police co-operate with me. In Inspector Heyward. who is in chargeof the court, and Gaoler Glover, I find staunch friends. Mr Cadby continued There is one matter I should like to can attention to. Prisoners are brought from all parts of Glamorganshire to Cardiff Gaol. "Yes." Well, on the expiration of their "time" they are discharged in the morning generally at six o'clock. They are then given only what money they mfty have had in their possession at the time of arrest; and very often—indeed generally -th s does not amount to enough to pay their railway fare home. If, however, they wait until the afternoon they may be given-at, I believe, the discretion of the governor—the bare fare. Of course you will see that little is gained by the waiting, for there seems no certainty as to the grant being made. I feel that if attention were called to this a similar regulation to that prevail, ing in London would be introduced. What is that': There a prisoner is not officially discharged until he is put into a railway carriage by a warder and given a ticket which will take him to the nearest station to the court at which he was tried. Should this be done, much sore temptation to the penniless prisoner would be removed. I have known cases where men have committed a breach of the law in order to get back to gaol, that life being preferable to poverty in a strange town, while cases are not rare where women have fallen to the gutter after, perhaps, being confined tor a petty, theft."
