Analysed by Dr Burghardt, Victoria University, and pronounced by him, who has a thorough knowledge of all the chalybeate waters in Wales, to be the best of them all. His words are-" Llan(Irindod chalybeate was called so because it contained sulphate of iron. The rarer and most precious component was that of carbonate of iron, which composed a purer and better chalybeate. These springs were very rare in the whole country, and this, the Aberayron well, was one of them." Valuable testimonials to its efficacy may be had on application. Pump house open daily except Sundays in the summer time from 7 till 8.30 a.m.; 11 till 12.30 a.m.; 2 till 2.30; 6 till 8 p.m. For a copy of the complete analysis apply to John M.

About boats, boating, and sea fishing, information may be obtained on application to Evan Loyn, Star of Wales; David Jones, pilot; John Williams, pilot; David Jenkins, "Park David James, Pier Cottage. FISHING. The river Aeron teems with trout, sewin and salmon, and the expert fisherman may, except at periods of long drought, when the river becomes shallow, enjoy splendid sport. The Arth, a neighbouring stieam is famous for trout, and is covered by the same license. Excellent lake trout fishing may be had in Llyneidd- wen, a distance of about ten miles, from which the Aeron flows. Combined with this are all the enjoy- ments of gorze, heather, mountain scenery and air. Licences and information may be obtained at the Post Office. The valley of the Arth is narrow and pictur- esque. That of the Aerpn, for rural scenes, Sylvan Groves, and all natural beauty is unsurpassed, and while it enhances the enjoyment of the fisherman, it is a source of ever recurring experience of delight to all persons. The rugged beach, if not the best far bath- ing, affords compensation to the fisherman. In the pools extending east and west of the river, left by the receding tide, shrimps, prawns, periwinkles, mussels, limpets, &c., may be caught and gathered, whilst crabs and lobsters may be got under the rocks and large stones. The size of the prawns to be found on this coast are not to be matched anywhere. BATHING. The clearness of the sea water owing to the absence of all mud and sewage renders bathing especially i delightful. Bathing is also comparatively safe, there being no dangerous pools, eddies, whirlpools, or cur rents m the vicinity anywhere. OTHER INFORMATION. There are in the town good provision shops) vege- tables, fresh milk, and butter easily obtainable, salmon, sewin, and trout procurable throughout the season, sea fish to be got periodically. The s.s. Ianthe plies fortnightly between Aberayron and Bristol. The spring water used for dietetic purposes has been analysed by Dr Frankland, and pronounced pure. WALKS. To those who love rambling and sportiug where aature has lavished profusely her deep foliage, her lowers and her gladness, the numerous paths along he river Aeron afford pleasant variety. Its attrac- iions have been immortalized in song, it is said by the commentator, the Rev James Hughes, of London— There golden treasure swells the plains,. And herds and flocks are there, And there the God of plenty reigns Triumphant all the year; The nymphs are gay, the swains are hale Such blessings dwell in Aeron's Vale. While every toast through Albion vies In dubious competition, And female charms contend the prize, Of beauty's high ambition. E'n Aeron's beauties must prevail, For Angels dwell in Aeron's Vale. There I possessed of real state, Presiding o'er a nation, With crowding senates at my feet, In humble adoration. rd envy, if envying might avail, The happy swains of Aeron's Vale. The scenery is charming and varied, comprising hill and dale with well-wooded and verdant slopes. The paths may be traversed with impunity, and unless wilful damage is perpetrated pleasure seekers will not be molested. Along the valley of the Arth the scenery is wild and woody. A person may find his way along difficult paths. Near Berllan Peter there are remains of a castle and Roman encampment. From here a glimpse of the sea may be had, in spite of the windings of the narrow valley. It shows what excellent judges of sites the ancient Britons were. Distance there and back, 6 miles. Along the coast line to Gilfachyrhalen Caves, which, although not large are interesting. In the largest may be found a peculiar species of fern, which thrives in its dark recesses. Close by there is a charming little water fall. The walk may be varied by returning along the parish road and then the turnpike road. Distance round, 5 miles. Along the coast line to the mouth of the Arth, and further on to the three earth pillars and Craigddu Rocks, over the- hill to the turnpike road on the return journey. Distance round, about 4 miles. These walks afford magnificent sea views, with the Carnarvonshire Coast, Bardsey Island, and New Quay Head in the distance. By the chalybeate pump-house, over the chalybeate grounds, sadly damaged by recent floods, across the Aeron by the new Lovers's Bridge (to be erected) and round Panteg. This is a lovely walk and near the town. Along the turnpike road to Llanerchaeron, and back on the opposite side of the river. Distance, about five miles. It is possible, if application be made to Mr Baynton, that visitors may be shown to Mrs 'Lewis' beautiful flower garden. This is one of the finest walks in Wales, through the celebrated old oak wood of Hergeraint, which is about half a mile long, and which the Gouernment offered to buy at the time of George IV. for navy purposes, for a fabulous sum. This wood is also the largest rookery in Cardiganshire, and one of the largest in the country. Distance round, abont five miles.

New Quay has been described an out-of-the-way corner, and certainly if any city-weary resident wants a holiday of complete rest in a beautiful, healthy, and hospitable neighbourhood, he could not do better than take up his residence at New Quay. The houses, sur- rounded by flower gardens, rise in tiers on the elevated heactyand. The bay stretches around to Abera and then makes a wider sweep on to Aberystwyth and the Merioneth and Carnarvon coasts. On clear eveo* ings Snowdon, Cader Idris, and Plynlymon arc to be seen, with their many lesser neighbours, rising on the other side of the blue waters of the bay. If the visitor is bent on sea-fishing for mackerel, gurnet, and such- like, he can hire a boat for the fishing grounds in the bay; or he may ramble along the sands of Traethgwyn, or under the cliffs to the Bird's Rock, and diversify his excursions by a visit to Wern, an ancient mansion wherein the Earl of Richmond (afterwards Henry VII.) slept on his way from Milford to Bosworth field.
