Suppliant and Master Wingfield have left thy Carragh to fulfil their engagements at Derb next week. Cloister, in charge of a lad from his training stable, reached Bangor from Liverpool on Thurs- day afternoon, and was taken to Vaynol Park, the residence of Mr Aseheton Smith, the elder brother of Mr Charles Doff, who has been staying here for some days. Whilst hunting Iwith the South Cheshire on Friday afternoon Mr Reginald Corbet, the eldest son of Mr H. R. Corbet, the Master, met with a serious accident. The meet was near Nanbvvich and during the second run Mr Corbet's horae put a foot in a rabbit hole and turning clean over fell upon his rider, who was picked up in a semi-con- scious condition. Besides Alphetis, Mr R. C. Vynet possesses an adept chaser in Malclius, and this upstanding son of Waterford completed a very nice treble on Fri. day when bearing the white-belted jacket to vic- tory in the Aintree Steeplechase. Like Alpheus he fenced in perfect fashion, affording further evidence that J. G. Elsoy is no novice in the art of teaching horses their business in this branch of sport. In a recent letter dated New York, Mr Charles E. Davies (the Parson "), who is at present managing a short tour of the States for John L. Sullivan, states his intention of visiting England before Christmas, when he will bring with him Joe Choynski and Tommy Ryan, if all goes, well. He will be further accompanied by OMiourke, who will bring with him George Dixon and Joe Walcott, the latter of whom O'Rourke has endeavoured in vain to match against any middle- weight in America, bar Bob FitzSimmons.
THE TINPLATE TRADE.
THE TINPLATE TRADE. LIVKKPOOL, Saturday.—We are still withoub anything cheerful to report from this market, the dulness being intensified rather than other- wise. American demand continues exceptionally poor, consisting merely of a few specialties of a fragmentary nature 9* 9d is now the general quotation for C 20 by 14 Bessemer cokes, and even this low figure does not induce business, buyers belieying that a still lower level must be reached before any considerable volume of trade will be forthcoming. Many of our markets are now closed for the winter months, and those which are left to us are pretty well satisfied with stocks for the time being. The home trade, which had lately been doing fairly well, has fallen back again, and with the drop in values has practically ceased to buy. We quote prices same as last week, viz :-Bomemer cokes, C 14 by 20, 9s 9d and 9s IOX/Ict C 18% and 19% by 14, 9s 10%d and 103; sauares and odcf sizes, 10s basis; Siemens' cokes, C 14 by 20,. 10s C 10 by 20, 148 3d squares and odd sizes, 10s 3d basis charcoal ternes, 10s 9d and upwards, according to quality and finimh and ternes, 19s per double box, all f.o.b. Wales.
KELLOCKS' SALES.
KELLOCKS' SALES. Messrs C. W. Kellock and Co., of Liverpool, have had another very busy week. At their auction on Thursday, Mr Nelson Cameron being the auctioneer, they offered several Importanb lots. The Leif Briksson and Minnehaha were passed, but keen competition was shown for the shares in the various sailing ships managed by Messrs Iredale and Porter, the result being as follows :-2/64th Peter Iredale, je285 the lot; l/64th Lodore, £135; 3/64ths Embleton. 2200 l/Mth City of Carlisle, £36. At Messrs Kellocks next auction, on Thursday, the 7th inst., they offer the management shares of the steamer and several sharos in sailing ships. The auction, on Thursday, the 14th, IDcludes some of the well-known Guion Liners, and the fine modem steel cargo boat Bushhills, together with several miscellaneous lots. We understand Messra Kellocks are arranging an important auction for one of the Thursdays at the end of the year, which will cause considerable sensation in shipping circles.

Tim PRETTIEST WOMAN IN LONDON is said to 1 be Mills Clara D-, a young lady belonging to a. very old English family. She is shortly to appear—so rumour declares—at a. West-end theatre in a new comedy by one of our leading dramatists. She is very wealthy, and her only reason for going on the stage is that she is veluctanfc to keep hidden away any longer her genius and beauty. These gifts of nature were meant for mankind, and it would be selfish to conceal them. Actuated by a similar motive, George Henry Camp writes to say that he has been cured of his rheumatism by Holloway's Ointment; while by the use of Holloway's Pflls he keeps himself healthy in, mmd and body. ?

AN AFTERNOON WITH THE ROATH…
AN AFTERNOON WITH THE ROATH HARRIERS. [BT SHORTLEG3.] The secretary of the Roath Harriers has-otter* chaffingly urged me to try my hand at cross- country running. Now, I think myself a bit of a runner, so I promised I would go one Saturday, and found out that that particular day there was to be a run from Walnut Tree. I arrived at the TaS Station at 3.30, and found about two dozen fellows (most of whom I knew), all with bags. There was one thing I noticed about these bags, and that was that there was no regularity as to size. One man had brought a portmanteau, and looked as though he meant to stay at Walnat Tree a year; whereas the next man had the smallest bag you can imagine, and looked as though he was carrying his weekly salary to the bank. My friend the secretary had, in addition to his bag, four long things which I could not at first make out, but finally came to the conclusion they were the things that contained our afternoon sport, namely, the scent." We arrived safely at Walnut Tree, and at once made tracks for the Junction Hotel, where we found our captain, Hugh Fairlamb, already on the spot with Arthur Fox, who was going to take charge of our togs and drive them back to headquarters. Handicapper Bell (the man of many figures) was also there timing the train, seeing how many minutes it had taken to do the six miles. Having donned the chocolate and gold," transferred our usual garments into the various bags and handed them to Driver Fox, we watched the hares, Eddie Thomas, Bob Ambrose, and Claude Hailey (the two vice. captains and hon. sec.), start off. Five minutes after (which seemed to us like a month) we, that is, the slow pack, started in chase, paced by B. B. John and whipped by J. W. Thomas. I started off, thinking we were going to race all the way, but; after 200 yards I was called behind the pace. The track was laid right up to Castle Coch, where I wanted to stop and have a rest, but after a bit of encouragement from the "whip" I began to feel better, and ran like the deuce, catching the others up. We got down into a small sort of valley, and found the wily hares had laid the trail through a lot of thick undergrowth which tore our legs to pieces, also tore one man's pants clean off, and the last we saw of them was a lob of ohocolate waving on a bramble. We now came to a road, and the pace having been too hot, John thought he would like a road run to Cardiff, eo another pace had to be appointed, who was forthcoming in T. W. Williams. We now bad to go up the hill on the other side, and oh, lor I began to feel that I was not such a good runner after all, and soon found out that the beefsteak and onions I had for dinner were not lying in the most com. fortable position. I am afraid I sadly delayed the pack up that long hill, as the whip's', whistle was going a good many times. My spirits seemed to rise with the ground as we came over the hill, and for the next two miles we ran well together. We were swinging along through a long field when suddenly all the pack seemed to start off with a rush, and left me ere I could think what was the reason, but on turning round what should I see but a bull tearing after us like mad. Did I run ? Well, I guess so, for when the end of the field was reached I'm sure I wasn't last. I found out later that when the fast pack reached this field they somehow quickened their pace, but were evidently not so tricky as the slow men, as the captain's brother, E. Fairlamb, got caught on the horns of a dilemma-I mean the bull's horns-and had a nice lift over two or three fields, which no doubt accounts for him being the first man home that day. A little further on, while crossing a farm- yard, we found two dogs lying down panting. Ib seems that they had also been chasing the hares, but bad not been successful, as after a run over three or four fields they had just missed our secretary's calves by half an inch as he cleared a six-barred gate (at least so he says). Nothing else exciting occurred until we had passed through Llanishen, when, in jumping a hedge, Big Harrison had not jumped high enough, so got caught, and was regularly mixed up with the brambles. He did not come over that hedge in what you might call a graceful way, as his head touched the ground first, and was followed five minutes after by his body and legs. His head all this time had been resting on Dick Leyshon'a foot, who bad been trying to get away, but there was so much of that foot to cover that Dick found it impossible to move an inch. We were now run- ning for the top of Penylan, and came out by the Palm Trees," where the fast pack oaughb us up. It was getting dusk when we suddenly saw Blackburne, the pace of the fasts," disappear. It seems that he fell into one of the many sort of half quarries which abound on Penylan Hill. Noel, Coppock, Jack James, Tom Shackell, and three or four others, liko true harriers, followed their pace to the death. When they got out we had passed them, and would take no notice of them, as they were covered with red mud from head to foot, at which they were much disgusted. When we arrived at the top of the hill our captain gave the word to ron in. Who came in first ? Why,lbowconl tell you when I was competing for last place and got whacked for that by a short head. I hope we shall have some more new members soon who can run much like me, as I want a companion to enjoy the wonderful sight of seeing the others streaming away in front. When we arrived at the Royal Oak we found, much to our surprise, that fox and the bags had arrived quite safely. Bell had also turned up with a Waterbury watch (somebody else's mind) timing each figure as it emerged into the gaslight. After a shower bath and rub down everyone deolared that it was the best run of the season. I enjoyed that run so thoroughly, although I was not in form, and found out that if one barrier cannot keep up all the rest wait for him until he! is ready to start again, that I am determined to run every Saturday this season with no exception. The secretary informs me that our club (I may now say our club, for I am a full-fledged Harrier), is in a very promising way. New members (some of whom are very smart on their feet) are pouring in and are very enthusias- tic, and the committee have provided excellent sport, having inter-team races with other olubs, cross country straight out" and sealed handicaps, road races, runs from Llandaff, Penartb, Caerphilly, &c., ftc., and last, but not least, high tea and smokers, the first of which will take place on November 16th, after the first club handicap. My advice to all who have never tried cross country running is, turn out at the Roath Harriers' headquarters (Royal Oak Hotel) next Saturday and come for a trial run. The captain and secretary will be very glad to see you, and you are sure to get a good afternoon's sport.

THEATRE ROYAL (CARDIFF). "The Shop Girl," one of the most successful and fascinating musical plays ever written, will be produced at the Theatre Royal, Cardiff, during the ensuing week by Messrs Morell's and Mouillot's talented company.

Dam, and the music by Ivan Oaryll; while additional numbers have been furnished by Adrian Ross and Lionel Monkton. The Daily Telegraphy in a recent criticism, says:—" The Shop is as attractive as any entertainment in towu the whole tone, in brightness and humour, is vastly better than any performance on the lighter stage that has been seen for many years." Similar testimony has been given by most of the leadmg dailies in London. There will be a special matinee on Saturday afternoon.

GRAND THEATRE, CARDIFF. At the Grand Theatre this week, lovers of amusing comedy are to have a treat presented to them in the shape of the highly diverting piece from Terry's Theatre, entitled, The Passport." Its great success at the little house in the Strand is the best evidence we could mention to induce Cardiff audiences—if they should need any in- ducement—to crowd the Grand during tbe week. The oompany is a highly talented one through. out. A great Cardiff favourite, Mr Garthorne, is at the head of it, and the cast includes other well-known names which have for long held foremost places in the theatrical world. The Passport will be well mounted and, undertaken by such a company, should create something of a sensation this week so far as the attendance of the public is concerned.
THE EMPIRE (CARDIFF).

THE EMPIRE (NEWPORT). The entertainment to be provided at the Em. pire, Newport, this week in no way detracts trom its usual high standard of ex- cellence. The seven Leopolds, in their startling and extraordinary acrobatic per- formance, which is unique in dress as well as in ability, should prove a most attractive item, and this, combined wtth the splendid all-round company which supports them, should crowd the hall nigbtlyö
- THE EMPIRE (SWANSEA).
THE EMPIRE (SWANSEA). Mr Stoll has secured this week for the Swansea Empire the Ardell and Donaldson Brothers, who, after a most successful American tour. are visiting the provinces.

THE PANOPTICON (CARDIFF). The services of the Treorky Male Voice Choir have been secured for the Panopticon, Cardiff, this week. but they will appear m the evening only. Their singing has delighted everyone whose pleasure it has been to hear them, and when at Edinburgh they sang before H.R.H. the Duke of Cambridge, who highly complimented them upon their performance. They shortly appear before the Queen at Windsor. This alone should be sufficient testimony of their excellence. We can safely prophecy good business for them, during the week.

The case having been opened, it appeared to the judge that it was one that ought to be dealt with in a county court, and therefore, at the instiga- tion of his Lordship, the jury acquitted the prisoner. MIDNIGHT POACHING ON LORD DYNEVOB'S DOMAINS. Evan Evans, labourer; Evan Thomas and Alfred Dicker, farm labourers and John Jones and John Thomas, apprentices to a carpenter, were each indicted on a charge of midnight poaching on Lord Dynevor's property, in the parish of Llandebie, on the 31sti ult.

THE ENGINEMEN'S STRIKE AT…
THE ENGINEMEN'S STRIKE AT RHYMNEY. ANOTHER MEETING OF THE COLLIERS. At the Victoria Hall, Rhymney, on Saturday afternoon, under the presidency of Mr David Watkms. a meeting of the colliery workmen was held to receive the report of the deputation appointed at the meeting on Friday to confer with the general manager of the Rhymney Company.—After a short address by the Chair- man, Mr Evan Thomas (the miners' agent), one who formed the deputation, stated that instead of waiting until Saturday morning the deputa- tion went down on Friday evening and found Mr Smith at tbe works offices. Mr Thomas then reported what transpired at the interview.—In reply to a question put to Mr Smith as to how to get out of the dilemma, he said-u For the enginemen and stokers to re- start work upon no condition whatever."—Mr Thomas then explained that there was another way out of the dilemma—for the company to concede to the demands of the enginemen and stokers.—Mr Smith admitted this, but said he could not do that. Therefore, as far as the colliers are concerned, we are exactly in the same position.—The following resolution was passed :— That we, as a body ot underground workmen, after hearing the report of the deputation that waited on Mr Smith, desire to make a strong and ardent appeal to tbe enginemen, stokers, and others, to return to their work, not because we think they are asking what they should not have, but for the sake of them exhibiting their sympathy with us in our present low and depressing circumstances. The same deputation as waited on Mr Smith were again re-elected to present the above appeal to a meeting of the enginemen, &c., which was to be held on Saturday evening at the Royal Hotel. The deputation waited on the enginemen on Saturday evening at the Royal Hotel as re- quested, but, it is rumoured, with no satisfactory result. A meeting of the colliers has again been called for this morning. The complications which have arisen in consequence of the engine- men, &c., declining to act upon the advice of, their agent is likely to lead to a deadlock.
LOCAL LAW.
LOCAL LAW. I. S. FIELDING AND CO., LTD. V. ORBAN AND ANOTHER.—In the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice on Saturday—before Mr I Justice Mathew sitting without a jury—the case of I. S. Fielding and Company, Limited, v. Orban and another, came on for hearing. Mr Asbton Cross appeared for the plaintiffs. Mr Hodson represented the defendants. Mr Aahton Cross said this was an action by Messrs J, S. Fielding and Co., of Hayes- buildings, Cardiff, against Mr B. F. Orban and Mr J. Lister O'Brierne to recover the sum of jB500 on a bill of exchange. The defence was that there was no notice of dishonour.—Mr Justice Mathew said the Cardiff Bank were the holders of the bill, and they forwarded it for collection. The bill being dishonoured, notification of the fact was sent to Cardiff, and then the plaintiffs' London office gave the notice of dishonour, acting on a telegraphic message. This seemed to him to be reasonable. He said he would look into the Bills of Exchange Act, and give judgment on Monday. PROSSER v. BABGE.—An ex parte motion by the plaintiff, who was landlord of Yspitty Farm, Abergavenny, by which it was sought to restrain the defendant from selling off the farm certain hay and other fodder, an alleged breach of the cove. nants of his lease was renewed on Saturday, before Mr Justice North, in the Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice.— Mr Justioe North granted an injunction restrain* ing the sale of the boilers, hay, and mangolds over Thursday next, and gave the plaintiff liberty to serve short notice of motion wi th a copy of the writ for that day. SYMONDS AND OTHERS v, EVANS.—In the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court ot Justice on Saturday — before the Lord Chief Justice taud Mr Justice Grantham, sitting as a Divisional Court — Mr Harrington appeared in the case of Symonds and others v. Evans in support of an appeal by the plaintiffs against a decision of the County Court judge sitting at Pontypridd, who gave judgment for the defendant. The further bearing of the case was adjourned till Monday.
JUDGE GWILYM WILLIAMS AND…
JUDGE GWILYM WILLIAMS AND STAGE ACTING. A very interesting dramatic entertainment was held at the Board Schools, Misken, on Friday night, in aid of the local Church Mission Room, before a crowded and fashionable audience, and at the close of the proceedings his Honour Judge Gwilym Williams, in proposing a hearty vote of thanks to the ladies and gentlemen who had taken part in the two pieces played, and who had given such a splendid dramatic treat, expressed a hope that these services would be the means of doing something more than assist the Church— that they would dispel a great deal ot the narrow feeling which stili existed amongst Welshmen with regard to what they called "play-acting." (Cheers.) There were some people who con- sidered it was a sinful act to attend that enter- tainment, and to see ladies and gentlemen— neighbours most of them, and members of the county families of Glamorgan and Herefordshire —acting as they had that night. Where was the sin and where the want of religion in such an admirable entertainment as had been given that evening^? (Applause.)

------A VANISHED BRIDEGROOM.
A VANISHED BRIDEGROOM. STRANGE AFFAIR AT THE WEST END An extraordinary occurrence was witnessed at AU Saints' Church, Margaret-street, on Friday morning. The wedding of Mr John Alexander McLean, of the 5th Royal Irish Lancers, son of Mr John Oswald McLean, of Sydney and Queens- land. with Miss Isabel Violet St. Maur Forbes, daughter of Mr Seymour J. Forbes. of Bedale, Yorkshire, was to have taken place at St. Peter's Church, Eaton-square, on Thursday after- noon. Every arrangement was made, the wedding breakfast ordered, and all was ready at the Albemarle Hotel, when just at the last moment, half-an-hour before the ceremony was to commence, news came to the bride-elect that the bridegroom could not be there. Fortunately she had not left the Albemarle Hotel. Late on Thursday ntgbt a near relation of Miss Forbes waited upon the bridegroom to learn his reason for postponing the wedding, and it was then arranged that the ceremony should take place very quietly at All Saints' Church, Mar- garet-street, the bridegroom himself taking the licence to the vicar. At tbe appointed time, 11 o'clock, the bride, accompanied by her two bridesmaids and a small page, and wearing a magnificent wedding dress of white satin, arrived at the church, but found to her dismay that no bridegroom had arrived. After waiting some time, messengers were sent to bis hotel and club, but they returned with the extraordinary news that he had not been seen since early morning. The bride waited on until past 12 o'clock, and then, no bridegroom appearing, she drove away greatly distressed. Where Mr McLean is nobody appears to know, even his valet pleading ignor- ance of his roaster's whereabouts. Miss Forbes (writns a correspondent of the Morning) is described as being about 30 years of age, tall and good looking, and has been residing in Margarei-street, Regent-street, during the last three or four months. Recently she has been on a visit to India, and on her return brought with her a coloured woman, who has acted in the capacity of maid to the young lady. While living at Margaret-street Miss Forbes was frequently visited by the captain, and they appeared very much attached to one another. Miss Forbes bad several friends staying with her at the house in Margaret- street, so that she was seldom without companions on her visits to different parts of London, or, indeed, at any other time. Captain McLean, ever since Miss Fotbas has been living in Margaret-street, has been regarded by those in the house in the light of the young lady's future husband. It. is said he was au acquaintance of old standing.but astothis noauthentlcinformation is obtainable. For some time past preparations for the nuptials of Miss Forbes and Captain McLean have been in progress, and numerous parcels have been arriving from day to day for Miss Forbes. The trousseau arrived a day or two ago, and everything was in readiness for the mar- riage, which was to take place by speoial licence. On Thursday afternoon, apparently without any formalities. Miss Forbes and the captain went to All Saints' Church, Margaret-street, to be married. The vicar, the Rev. W. Allen Whitworth. however, although the licence was in proper order, declined at such short notice to perform the ceremony, and the marriage was then postponed until Friday. It is a somewhat peculiar feature about the licence that it per- mitted the marriage to take place at either St. Peter's Church, Eaton-square, or at All Saints', Margaret-street. No objection, however, was raised by the Vicar of All Saints' Church on that score, and it was arranged that the ceremony should take place at 11 a.m. on Friday, when it was to have been performed by the vicar, assisted by his curate, the Rev. Willoughby Carter. Accordingly at 11 o'clock (on Friday morning the bride drove up in a carriage drawn by two handsome greys. She was accompanied by three gentlemen friends and three ladies as brides- maids. Altogether there were six carriages. It was raining heavily at the time, but in spite of this the arrival of the carriages and the usual indications that a wedding of importance was about to take place attracted a considerable crowd of sightseers. Several constables were on duty, and two were stationed cn either side of the entrance to the church. The constables, it is stated, demanded tickets from persons desiring to enter the churoh. On this reaching the ears of the vicar representations were made in tbe proper quarter, and the constables were withdrawn. The publio were then allowed to enter the church in the ordinary way. All the necessary preparations had been made, and the church in the vicinity of the altar was tastefully decorated with chrysan- themums. The bridal party entered the church punctually at 11 o'clock, and seated themselves in the front pews. The bride was arrayed in a magnificent gown of white silk with an exceed- ingly long train, and wore cream-coloured satin shoes. Her three bridesmaids wore dresses of blue and white material trimmed with gold, forming, it is said, the colours of Captain McLean's regiment. The bridesmaids supported the train of the bride's dress, which was laid across three rows of seats while the wearer remained seated in front of the altar rails. There were a considerable number of the bride's friends present, and as the delay in the appearance of the bridegroom grew protracted the utmost anxiety was felt. Two gentlemen, stated to be friends of the bridegroom, but whether relations or not did not transpire, were present, and seated themselves at some distance from Miss Forbes. After waiting some little time these gentlemen are stated to have had a conversation with the vicar and his curate, in the course of which they are reported to have said that Captain McLean was at the time scarcely in a position mentally to take part in the ceremony, and they had thought it their duty to be present to interfere and preventit taking place should the necessity for doing so arise. It has been ascertained on good authority that the two gentlemen represented that there were also strong family objections to the captain's alliance with Miss Forbes, though what these are has not transpired publicly. It is possible these statements are based upon some misunderstanding. The gentlemen referred to were very emphatic in saying they were prepared to use all lawful means to stop the wedding should the bridegroom present himself. The conversation occupied nearly three-quarters of an hour, and in the meantime the bride sat very quietly in the seat she had taken up on entering the church. She did not manifest any strong feeling, but when it became evident that the bridegroom would not put in an appearance, and the were preparing to depart, she seemed abont to faint. She succeeded, however, in recovering herself, and then walked calmly to ber carriage, the remainder of the party following, and all were driven to the Albemarle Hotel,
GAMBLING IN SIAM.
GAMBLING IN SIAM. The Bangkok correspondent of the Daily Graphic says:—The Siamese, like moat Asiatics, are inveterate gamblers. They gamble from infancy. The smallest children play (pitch-and- toss. As they grow older they bet, more or less heavily, on all kinds of chances. Kite flying, wrestling grasshoppers, and fighting fish aro their commonest excitements. Their kite flying con- sists of a straggle between two kites, the object of the owner of each being to bring his opponent's down. Great skill is shown in this manoeuvring, and the crowd who look on bet extravagantly on the probable result. A peculiar kind of grass- hopper which is willing to struggle with one of its fellows on small provocation is eagerly sought for. Two of these quarrelsome insects are put into an empty flower-pot, and are a source of endles3 amusement to tbe bystanders. Perhaps the most popular form of all Siamese gambling is betting on fighting fish. A small fish peculiar to the country will fight one of its kind to the death. Two of these are placed in a jar of water, and are watched with great interest by boys and men until one proves the victor by killing the other.
CIGARETTE SMOKING.
CIGARETTE SMOKING. Thereare probably few of theinveteratecigarette smokers of the present day who are aware of the mischief they are doing and the evil effects of this habit when carried to excess. To those who indulge all day long in this system of nicotine poisoning the following opinion, expressed to the writer of these notes by a well-known wrestler, may be of benefit. The man delivered himself of the opinion that one of the worst habits a man or boy who wanted to do anything in athletics can indulge in is the babtt ot oigarette smoking. He had based his opinion on the observation he had made in various gymnasia, and had come to the conclusion that cigarette smoking was worse than any other form of dissipation. A man may smoke cigarettes for years and never find out that it injures him, so long as he is not called upon for hard work of any kind but let him go into training, or undertake any violent exercise, and he will find that all bis old time endurance is lost. The heart has become weakened and the wind is gone. There have been many cases known where young men have gone into training for athletie contests who have had to give up because they couldn't forego their cigarette smoking. Young men and boys especially would do well to lay this to beart-Fatnily Doctor.
A WHIPPING-POST.
A WHIPPING-POST. It is an interesting fact that a precisely similar whipping-post to that which has just been discovered in the loft of Rochester Guildhall was brought to light a few years ago in the tower of old Hackney Church, except that in the latter case the find also included an ancient cooking stoole," in which scolding wives were immersed in the Hackney Brook. The whipping-post, which appears to have been made to the order of the Hackney Vestry in 1630, consisted of a wooden stage mounted on four low wheels. The platform contained a rough plank seat, in front of which was a framework of wood with one cross-piece, supported by uprights. On each side of the inner uprights were fixed a pair of handcuffs, whilst three additional pairs were placed along the upper border of tbe crosspiece.

Stephenson, a Liverpool stock. broker, on Saturday obtained a decree nisi because of his wife's adultery with Andrew Frank Wood. head. of Altrincham, her second cousin. The charges were denied. The co-respondent wrote:, —" It is just that little spice of danger whioh gives zest to what are and will be forbidden joys. In being virtuous you may be happy, but you will never have any fun." He said the letters were merely flirtations. He, however, must have been half drunk when he wrote the letters.
