RESIGNATION OF THE TORY GOVERNMENT.
RESIGNATION OF THE TORY GOVERNMENT. AFTER all the ridicule aHd misrepresentation of the Torie, concerning the three acres and a co;v idea the Government ha, been defeated by a very faint shadow of the acres without the cow. It was placed in. a minority of 79 upon Mr Jesse Collings's amendment to the address, expressias: regret that no measures are annonncerl by her Majesty for the present relief of these classes, and especially for affording facilities to the agricultural labourers and others in the rural districts to obtain allotments" and small holding on equitable terms as to rent auu eeurily of tenure. It was intimated In the course of the debate upon the amendment that the matter would be taken seriously, and in the nature of a vote of censure. Well, who could help trying con- clusions with the "stop-gap Government" which went on merely for the sake of retaining office, knowing full well that it had not the confidence of the country P We are glad to find that the Welsh members did very well. only four being abseut, viz., Mr W. F. Mait- land (Brecon), l\L T. Love-Jones Parry (Carnarvon), ,NTe C. R. M. Talbot (Mid- Glamorgan), and Sir Hussey Yiviau, Swatuea. As the fite of the Tory Administration was sealed by the Division, it is only fair to see how the Principality was represented on the occasion, and we find that in the majority- against the Government—the following voted —Mr W. Abraham (Rhonddg), Mr E. H. Carbutt (Monmouth Borough/), Mr R. Davies (Anglesey), Mr Ll. Dillwyn (wansea), Lord R. Grosvenor, Mr C. H. James, Merthyr, Sir J. Jones Jenkins (Carmarthen), Mr G. O. Mor- gan, Mr W. R. H. Powell, Mr T. P. Price, Mr D. Pugh, Mi W. Rathbone, Sir E. J. Reed (Cardiff), Mr fl. Richard (Merthyr), Mr J. Roberts, (Flint), Mr J. Roberts (Carnarvon), Mr A. Thomas (East Glamorgan), Mr C. M. Warmington, Mr A. J. Williams, South (Gla- morgan), Mr F. A. Yeo (West Glamorgan) Mr H. Robertson, (Merioneth), Colonel West (Denbighshire), and Mr Stuart-Rendel (Mont- gomery). This is certainly a fair stand for Hadical Wales, though, in a critical juncture, every membe. might be expected to be in his place in the House of Commons. We regret to say that in a previous Division which nearly upset the equilibrium of the Tories—that on Mr Barclay's amendment, on Monday night, c —only eight Welsh members voted Liberal, and four of those were Representatives of Glamorganshire, so that the Premier county had only one absentee, viz., Mr Talbot. This was certainly not bad for the men of Morganwg ri 10 but other counties have not the same cause for congratulation. Tuesday night's division, however, was more important and then it was found that the following three Tories and two Liberals went into the lobby with the defeated Government :-Messrs Pryce-Jjnes (Mont- gomery), D. Davies (Cardigan), W. Davies (Pembroke), Hon. F. Morgan, and Hon. G. Kenyon (Denbigh). The Liberals having triumphed, we can afford to be generous, but there will, no doubt, be explanations asked for in regard to the defections. The fallen Premier of seven months experience has accepted the verdict of the House of Commons and on Wednesday night, after a Cabinet Council, a messenger was sent to the Queen to state the position of affairs. Even if Her Majesty should press Lord Salisbury to retaia office, he cannot now do her bidding, for he would simply be confronted bv a strong phalanx of Liberals and Nationalists, forming an opposing majority such as no Prime Minis- ter dare encounter. Humour's busy tongue is making free with names in as flippant a manner as usual, but Wales will echo the cry, Mr Gladstone is the only possible Premier.

FORMATION OF A TEMPERANCE UNION AT PONTYPRIDD, LEGISLATIVE AND ECiECTIOffEEaiXS ACTION. An important meeting of temperance workers was held on Mondity evening, at Saidis Vestry, Pontypridd, f r the purpose of forming a Temper- ance Association, or Union. There was a good attendance. The Rev. W. L Morris was voted to the chair, and Mr. Brommage, of the Past Office, was appointed secretary pro tern. The feeling of those present clearly indicated that it wag con- sidered the time had arrived fvr the temperance party to take some steps for concentrating its efforts during all kinds of elections, especially now, as there was a probability of County Boards being established, which would, it was understood, hare the granting of licenses relented to the u. It was pointed out that it was imporUnt to the Temper. ance Party to get proper representatives on such Boards. There was a concansua of opinion that it was full time to take steps to prepare for any contingencies that may arise, and that the sooner the better the initiatory move sll Jald be made, It was resolved to foim a Union, tor which the title of Pontypridd District G)si)ei Temperanoe Union" was suggested, but the name was after- wards left to the consideration of a sub-eammittee appointed for the purpose of preparing the consti- tution, &e. A very large number signified their readiness to join the movement, and hopes were expressed that all temperance friends will rally round the pioneers. From the tone of the meetinsr it was evident that something substantial may b6 expected from the movement bet on foot.
