The Bishop of St. Asaph was on Tuesday introduced to the Queen, and did homage on his elevation to the See. The Prince of Wales will preside at one of the meetings of the National Eisteddfod, to be held at Brecon next September. The Bishops of Bangor, St. David's, Llandaff and Chester will be present at the enthronement of the Bishop of St. Asaph on the 25th inst. Mr. Dillwyn has secured the first place on May 14th, for his motion in favour of Disestablishment in Wales. Colonel C. H. Browne, C.B., commanding the 23rd Regimental District, died on Tuesday at the depot, Wrexham, after a few days' illness. The Welsh version of the Local Government Act is being proceeded with, but owing to cer- tain peculiarities of the Welsh language, the task has been a difficult one, and delay has been caused in the work of translation. The bill of costs for conducting the Merioneth- shire County Council election has been taxed by His Honour Judge Bishop. The bill, amounting to Y,1,534 lis. Id., was reduced to JE746 os. 2d., and the charge for conducting three casual elections, amounting to X130 5s. was reduced to £ 65 5a. The result of the Rochester election was made known on Tuesday night as follows :-Mr. Knatchbull-Hugessen (Gladstonian), 1,655 Alderman H. Davies (Conservative), 1,580; majority, 75. At the election in 1885 the voting was-Colonel Hughes-Hallett (Conservative) 1,600 and Mr. F. E. Belsey (Liberal), 1,355. The result of the contest in Central Birming- ham was declared on Monday night as follows -Mr. J. A. Bright (Liberal Unionist), 5,626; Mr. W. P. Beale (Gladstonian), 2,561; majority for the Unionist, 3,060. In 1885 the voting was:—For Mr. John Bright (L), 4,989; and for Lord R. Churchill (C), 4,216 majority, 773. The funeral of the Duchess of Cambridge took place on Saturday &t Kew, in the presence of her Majesty the Queen, the Duke of Cambridge, the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duchess of Teck, the Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, and the whole of the Royal Family now in England. Mr. Osborne Morgan introduced on Thursday to the President of the Board of Trade a depu- tation of Welsh members in support of the Welsh Railways Union Bill now before the House of Commons. This measure seeks power to enable local lines in Wales to combine with the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, the Cheshire lines, and other Lancashire railways, for the appointment of a joint committee to regulate and manage through traffic. The chief opponents of the Bill are the London and North-Western and the Great-Western Com- panies. Amongst those forming the deputation were Mr. Maclure, M.P., Mr. T. E. Ellis, M.P., 's Mr. John Roberts, M.P., Mr Swetenham, M.P,, Mr. Osborne Morgan, M.P., Colonel Laurie, M.P., Mr. A. Thomas, M.P., Sir Theodore Martin, and Mr. Evan Morris, Mayor of Wrexham. The Budget was introduced by Mr. Goschen in the House of Commons on Monday. The expenditure for the past year was £ 85,673,872, or £ 941,072 less than the original budget estimate and £ 1,350,185 less than the total estimated expenditure. The total revenue of the past year was £ 88,473,000, being XI,646,000 above the estimate, the income tax showing an increase of X450,000 over the estimate, and the tobacco duty an increase over the previous year of S145,000, but short of the estimate by £ 41,000. As to the revenue from drinks, coffee remained dull, cocoa added S6,000 more to the revenue, the increase from the tea was only £ 15,000. From spirituous liquors the revenue was £ 27,000,000 there was nothing connected with this largo figure auguring other than good news for the friends of temperance, for the drink revenue did not increase with the increase of the population. The consumption of wine generally had sunk from 17 million to 13 million gallons, though that of the lighter kinds of wine had risen from 6 to 8 million gallons. Sparkling wines continued to hold their own, and he had seen nothing during the year which caused him to alter his views with respect to the increased duty on this class of wine. Mr. Goschen next proceeded to give his estimate a for the coming financial year, the expenditure being set down at X86,967,000, and the revenue at £ 85,050,000, showing a deficiency of £ 1,917,000, which it was his duty to make up, besides finding the margin necessary to meet emergencies. In these circumstances it was perfectly clear that it would be impossible for him to make any remissions of taxation. A million of this deficiency would be met by the saving on the debt conversion scheme; £ 800,000 by an additional death duty of 1 per cent. on estates of more than 110,000 in value, whether real or personal; and X300,000 by a readjust- ment of the duty on brewers equivalent to one-fourteenth of a penny per gallon. He also proposed to abolish some of the present death duty exemptions, and the margin he estimated at the close of the year was a favourable balance of £ 183,000.
