---A WELSH TORY AND THE BIBLE…
A WELSH TORY AND THE BIBLE -1 SOCIETY. A MOST extraordinary letter has been addres- sed by the Hon. C. H. WYNN, of Rug, Corwen, to the local secretary of the Bible Society in that district. The sentiments which are expressed in the letter, the lan- guage in which it is couched, and the disre- gard for the rules of grammar are all aliko remarkable. The sentiments are narrow and bigoted, the language is common place and unrefit ed, and the grammar is faulty and in- correct. It is the production too of a man whom the Tories of Montgomeryshire have selected to be their candidate at the next elect ion. It has always been considered by all men of every party that a Member of Parliament should be a man of education and culturp., and possessed of some degree of refinement. Even the Tories, though they disregard maov of the qualities in a candidate which the Liberals deem to be essential, require generally a man possessed of humanitarian sympathies, and some degree of culture, and sirne knowledge of the language in which the debates in Parliament are carried on and in which the statutes are written. Rank and wealth and position, though they go a long 0 way with the Tories, do not satisfy the full requirements in and qualifications of a candi- date for Parliamentary honours. We there- fore think that the Tories of Montgomery- shire will think more than once before they decide to nominate such a man, and we are sure that the electors of that county will think many times before they would return him as their representative. But let us turn to the precious document itself. The follow ing is the first sentence Dear Sir,—In re- ply to y jur letter, wherein you state the day fixed for the meeting of the Corwen branch of the British and Foreign Bible Society, and requesting to be informed if I shall be able to attend and to preside, I am unable to do so, and will take this opportunity to resign the office of president, which I have had the honour of being elected to and great pleasure of filling for somo time past, as I feel the in- consistency of presiding oh a platform sup- ported by those who only so lately were advocating the Disestablishment and Dis- endowment of the National Church, and furthering the ends which the so- called Liberation Society have in view." If the candid reader will examine this long sentence which makes up more than one-third of the letter, and will view it under each of the three aspects which we have already in- dicated to you, he cannot fail to endorse the ¡ comments which we have made on each. First then as to the sentiments involved, illr WYNN says that he cannot attend a meeting of the Bible Society, and that he resigns his office of President of the Branch within that; district. He then gives his reasons. What are they ? That it would be inconsistent on -,is part to preside on a platform on which stand many persons who are advocates of the Disendowment and the Disestablishment of! the National Church. Such is Mr. \VYXN'S seif assumed poaitiou. It is not a lofty or a noble one. The Bible may fall, but the Church must stand, as far as his assistance and sympathy are involved. Surely that Sacred Book in which are written the teach- iugs which from of old, GOD himself has vouchsafed to man, ia which are written the sayings of tliii who spake as never man spake surely that BOJk should have been held in reverence and looked upon even with awe by such a man as Mr. WXJJN ought to be assumed to be. And surely his feelings of dislike to what he calls The so-cal.ed Liberation Society," should not have debar- red him from assisting in what must be con- sideied a God-like work, viz., the dissemina tiou of the recorded Word of GOD. This much for the sentiment in the sentence. Now, look "t its grammar. There is the absence of the conjunctions and the using of cocjunctiot s toioin different parts of speech, wh ch is contrary to the rules laid down by the famous LINDLEY MURRAY. We now give the next, tw'¡ sentences of the letter, in which the p aiu and simple principles of logic and of g'anmar are still further disregarded. P e go s on to say- I consider the home of The Church has always been the Bible, and ihe vitdit,' of ou schools. To disestablish j aid d bendow the Church would in a great, n ens ire destroy the efficiency of ihe Bible, s it i-; in a great measure by her teachings] that cheap Bibles aro not used for waste that cheap Bibles arc not used for waste I ¡ raper, find to rob the Church of her owu, I property, rights, and revenue-a sad mistake to benefit no one; neither would any rate- payer be the better off pecuniarily, or anyone t lse. Look at Ireland. Are they who dis- established the Church better off io freedom of worship, morally, or in money—the tithes going to the Crown ?" What does he mean hy this sentence ? Js it 11 That the home of the Church has always been the Bible," or That the home of the Church has always been the vitality of our schools ?" Mr. WINN might be able to answer this, and to dissipate the error or explain the ambiguity which is either in the sentence or lurks about it. If this meets the eye of Mr OWEN LLOYD, to whom the letter was addressed, perhaps he will favoar us with tne impressions which it left upon his mind on reading it. With regard to what he says about destroying the efficiency of the Bible, we would venture to submit that nowhere and amongst no class of persons does the Bible possess more efficacy, or is more considered with feelings of rever- ence and of awe than by those who are out- side the pale of what Mr. WYNN calls the National Church, viz., that vast body of Christians who may be grouped and named by the style of Nonconformists. We now give the remaining portion of Mr. WYNN'S letter, so that if our readers will note the portions included within the inver tel comma they may read continuously the whole of Mr. WYNN'S production, or effusion, if the term be preferable. I cannot believe that fIJY countrymen and women wish to imitate Ireland, and to move, after due con- dideration, a measure which, when too late, they would bitterly repent. It is not my present intention to abstain from subscribing to the British and Foreign Bible Society, but from appearing on a platform which rightly advocates the publishing of the Bible in all languages, but on another occasion itself gives forth, it appears to me, such uncertain sounds. Kindly place this letter before the next public meeting of the Bible Society at Corwen as my reason for not attending.—I am, yours faithfully, C. H. WYNN." Mr. WYNN states that he intends to con- tinue his subscription to the Bible Society, and so that Society may devoutly say, For this even let us be thankful," We ha^e no personal feeling whatever in this matter, and we believe that Mr. WYNN is an amiable and honourable gentleman; but hen he assumes a public character, and looses before the world as a would-be logisia- tor bis doings and his sayinga then become public property, and we are within the pro- vince of our own rights when we present to our readers a just and candid criticism of Mr. W'iNN'S public acts.

We are within one month of the time when the annual Election of Commissione s is to take place, and yet the event is but very little spoken of, or even, seemingly, thought of, by the general body of ratepayers. The public interest in these contests seems to be diminishing year after year. Why, it is diffi- cult to say. But we a e certain of this, that if this state of apparent apathy is allowed to continue much longer the interests of the town are bound to suffer. As in impetial, so in local matters, nothing is of more vital im- portance to thu best interests of a community than to exercise care and discretion in the choice of those who are elected too govern. This is our reason for takiug this early opportunity of reminding our readers of the coming election. At the present time there are no questions of unusual importinoa pend- ing settlement by the Board, but it is out of anyone's power to foretell whit a year many bring forth. There are, however, one or two matters recently taken up by the Commission- ers, which, should they be proceeded with, mlit require a large amount of practical experience and skill in the settlement thereof. And even if it were not so, a Commissioner, in a town like Rhyl, has a I trust" reposed in him which renders it of the utmost cou- sequence that he should have all the necessary qualifications to efficiently discharge. The list of the retiring members this year, con- tains the names of good men and true—a few of them are old and well-tried members of the Board and it is a matter of certainty that, if spared, some of them will seek re- election, while one or two of them, we believe tiave already announced their intention to 'etire. As to who will be the new candi- dates, it is as yet premature to say-it is a question of probabilities." To a great de- cree this matter rests with the ratepayers themselves. Let us hope they will be "picked men in the best sense of the term. They should be men possessing independent views and opinions of their own—not the nominees of cliques or parties. -In years gone by, men have been nominated as candi- dates, simply for a lark." Such a practice is reprehensible in the extreme. They should also be men who have a knowledge of the town and its requirements-men who have lived in iihyl long enough tokaow something about it, and who have a vested interest in it. Without prejudice to anyone we say that there is too great an inclination to seud "strangers" to the Board. Another very important qualification in a Commissioner is, that he should be able to devoto the necesta 'y time to the due performance of his impor- tant duties as such. In nominating candi- dates the nominators would do real and valu- able service to the town if they paid a little more attention to the consideration of these matters. For ourselves, we would like to see a contest. A contest, properly conducted, between several good men, must result bene- ficially to the town. Happily, in Rhyl "party" feelings of every character have hitherto had little, if anything, to do with the Election of Commissioners. May it ever be so.

NORTH WALES HYDROPATHIC ESTABLISHMENT…
NORTH WALES HYDROPATHIC ES- TABLISHMENT COMPANY. The annual meeting of shareholders was held on Thursday last, and the affairs of the insti- tution appeared to be in a greatly improved stat. From the printed statement of ac- counts the profits on the year's working were seen to be C463 14s., the loss accruing to last year's working being JE305 3s. 2d. The balance of loss on Profit and loss Account on the 31st December, 1883, was zClOO lis., therefore, instead of there being X463 14s. disposable for dividend, there was only X363 3s. Several items of expenditure show a substantial decrease as compared with 1883. While the house receipts had increased £ 484 7s. ll^d., the expenditur on provi- sions had decreased zC39 4s. 9s., and on coke, coal, gas, Ac., iCI8 2s. 7d. On the receipts side the only decrease reported was £3 2s. under the heading of baths." The directors recommended that a dividend at the rate of 2t per cent. be declared, and the balance of 4 X98 18s be carried forward to next year's account. Ia recommending the declaration of a dividend the directors took the opportu- nity of stating that they would have prefer. red carrying the whole of the divisable profits to next account; but taking into consideration the fact that no dividend had been declared, for some years, they deemed it desirable to recommend the payment of a small one this year, and drew attention to the fact that the profits of the past year would have been con- siderably more had not a large sum been expended in the work of restoration and re- pairs. The house, premises, and furniture were reported to be in thoroughly good order. The expenses of management as compared with the previous year, were considerably less in nearly every department. The appointment of Miss Charlton as secretary and manageress will prove an advantage to the institution. The directors were of opinion, and declared that opinion to the shareholders, that the success which has attended the working of the institution during the past year was greatly due to the energy and active superin tendeuce of Mr Littler, who kindly consented to act as managing director. Mr Littler is well-known as an able financier and manager, and this is but another instance of hia ability. When the chances of the success of the insti- tution were considered at a very low ebb, it was thought, that if any man could pull it through, that man was Mr Benjamin Littler. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded him by his co-directors and share- holders.
AN EVENING WITH TENNYSON.
AN EVENING WITH TENNYSON. ADDRESS BY THE REV. E. LLOYD JONES. At the English Wesleyan Schoolroom, Morley Road, on Tuesday evening, a high-class entertain- ment, entitled as above, was given. There was a very select, though not numerous, audience. Shortly after the appointed time, Mr James Taylor took his seat as chairman, and was loudly cheered on rising to deliver an opening address. In the course of a few remarks, Mr Taylor referred to the great difference between Rhyl of the pres m t day to what it was when he first came here, 29 years ago. At that time lectures, or concerts, or "Evenings with Tennyson," or "Pleasant Evenings," were absolutely unknown. On one occasion he applied for the use of the old town hall —one of the ugliest rooms he had ever seen-for a course of three lectures by the Rev. George Dawson on John cliffb, John Knox, and John Wesley. Gentlemen who ought to have known better voted against granting the application, and he only suc- ceeded in carrying it by a majority of one vote. That was the breaking of the ioe," and ever since Rhyl had gone forward. Entertainments of different kinds were now plentiful there being no less than four that week (hear, hear ) The change which had taken place must in his opiuion be beneficial to the town The programme was then proceeded with. Of the performances, both in the singing and the reading, we need hardly say that they were excellent, each item being loudly applauded, and in one or two instance8 encores were demanded We will not particularize, further than to say that the reading, or rather the recitation of "The Revenge," by Mr Hazlehurst, was a masterpiece of elocution, and received an unmis takeable mark of approval from the audience. Mrs Hazlehurst, we were sorry to learn, was unable through indisposition, to appear; her place was very etficieotiy filled by her sister, Miss Edmunds. The accompanists were Miss Hughes, Morley Road Miss Foster, and Mr Hazlehurst. The following was the programme :—Quartette, Break, Break," Miss Edmunds, Mrs Foster, Mr Mudd, and Mr Hazlehurst; duet, "Tears, idle tears," Miss Debney and Mr Mudd song, The Brook," Miss M. Amos reading, "Lockslay Hall," Mr Clews song, Charge of the Light Brigade," Mr Hazlè- hurst (encored, reading "Dora," Miss Rice; song, Vivien's song," Miss Edmunds; address Biographical and Critical, llev E. Lloyd Jones; quartette. "Sweet and low," Miss E lmunds, Mra Foster, Mr Mudd and Mr Hazleharst; song, Home they brought her warrior dead," Miss Debney; reading Sea dreams," Rev. W. Foster; song, "Maid of Athens," Miss Edmunds duet, "0, Swallow, swallow," Mrs Foster aud Miaa Foster; reading, "The revenge," Mr Hazlehurst song, Come into the garden, Maud," Mr Mudd; quartette, "Ring out wild bells," Miss Edmunds, Mrs Fotter, Mr Mudd, and Mr Hazlehurst concluding with the National Anthem. The Rev. E. Lloyd Jones, who was heartily cheered on coming to the front of the platform, after a few introductory remarks, said, in the course of his able address, that Tennyson was the son of a clergyman, the rector of Someraby in Lincolnshire, and was born in the year 1809. He received his early education under the tuition of his father, and was for a short period in a Grammar School at Louth. About the year 1829 he went to Cambridge, where he did not exhibit any remark- able genius. About that time he, in conjunction with his brother Charles, published a volume of poems, which he ever regretted having done. The only indication of his poetical powers while at Cambridge was his gaining the Chancellor's Prize Poem. The subject was Timbuctoo (laughter.) For the succeeding 15 years he made hardly no impression as a poet. In the year 1842 he publish- ed two small volumes of poems, and this was really the commencement of his future success. Those volumes gained the high approval of Wordsworth, John Stuart Mill, and John Sterling, who were convinced that a poetic genius had at last appeared. They might ask, how it was that his earlier productions had not succeeded ? The editor of the Spectator," replied that it was broause there was no poetry in them—it was not poetry. At that time he was simply an artist. There is a difference batween an artist and a poet- Itu artist is a man who can see a thinar, a poet is a m'ln who can give expression to it (hear, hear). Tennyson for 15 years was bimply an artist. It was in the year 1850 that his poetic history really began, after writing the In Memorisra." It Was then that he gained the title of "Poet Laurete." Dwelling upon the free elements which placed Tennyson above all others, Mr Jones mentioned the following (1) A power of versifi- cation—metrical diversity. In this respect he differed from Milton ani Wordsworth, who were like birds in a cage, and could only sing to one tune. Tennyson was like fifteen bir^s rolled into one. His poems represented the songs of the thrush, the Ltrk, and the little wren. Mr Jones illustrated his remarks with some striking quota- tions. (2) Tennyson wrote for the good, not of man, but of mankind. Ho (Mr Jones) would not go so far as to say he was a poet of humanity. (3) Tennyson related the religious aspirations of a large class of people who have no dogmatic be- lief-people whose life was one strugglo after truth, who are longing for truth. As to the future of Tennyson's works, Mr Jones said that dolith would be a terrible blow both to Tennyson himself and his works. Because (1) there was too much machinery about his works to live. His poetry was not spontaneous, but was the result of much hard work. He had the infinite power of taking PAIUS" (as one author had described genius). (2) Lack of fertility of thought. (3) He had no deep sympathy with the masses of the people, without which LO poet would always live. Mr Jones's address, of which we have given but the outline, was listened to with earnest attention, and he resumed his seat amidst loud applause,
-_----__------DENBIGH.
DENBIGH. At the intermediate meeting of the North Wales BraDcn of the British Medical Associition, held at Llangefni on Thursday, Dr. J. Lloyd Roberts, Denbigh, (the president eleot) was presented with a silver inkstand on the vccaiioa of his marriage. ¡ RHYL PETTY SESSIONS. MONDAT.-Before T. G. Dixon, Esq. Rev. G. A. Butterton, D.D., and W. Pryce Jones, Esq. CBUELLY ILLTREATING AN ASS. John Parry, of Rhuddlan, an old man, up in November last on a similar charge, was charged by Inspector Temperley, Bangor, with oruelly illtreating an ass, on the 17th ulf-P.C. W. li. Hughes, Rbuddlan, proved the case, saying the defendant beat the animal very cruelly.-In defence Parry said that b did strike the donkey, but very lightly. A flock of pigeons frightened the donkey, or he would have no occasion to use the stick at all. —Fined 5s. and 9s costs, with a caution nol to repeat the offence.—Defendant: I am going to have a new donkey, and will not require a stick (laughter), and nobody can say anything then. MASTER MARINERS AND THEIR LITTLE QUARTiT. William Jones, master of the lat "Albion, charged Thomas Haughton, master of tb, lat Raven" with an assault alleged to be Com- mitted on the 28th ult.—Mr Edward Roberts appeared for the prosecution, and Mr C. W Ball, defended Haughton.—The prosecutor said that on the 28th of February, he wep*' on board the 11 Raven for the purpose of eJit" plaining something respecting an oar which- the defendant charged him with having stolen. Haughton called him a thief. He said If I am a thief yoa are another." Haughton then struck him till he was insensible. I Mr Roberts; Did he strike you more than once. Witness I don't know, the first blow did" me. Toe Chairman Do you mean to say ths. the first blow struck you out of time." Witness: Entirely, Sir. In further evidence prosecutor said that he still felt the effects of the blow. In cross-examination he said that the oar belonged to his vessel so far as ho knew. I; was the only one he had aboard. There was no sttuggle whatever. By the Bench He had been captain of th- Albion" about three months, and the oa was on board when he joined. Dr. W. Thomas deposed seeing prosecutor on Saturday evening. He suffered from a large swelling on the cheek,-he bled from the nose and ear, and the eye was blood shot. He cJmphined also of a pain in the side, but the dOCLor could not detect that a rib w broken. On the left ear were some superfk marks, that might have been inflicted by a kick from a boot. The blood on the ear oozed from those marks and not from the inside of the ear. For the defence Mr Bell contended that the prosecutor was the first aggressor, and thv quarrel was much the same as that of neighbours—faults on both iiides-and should never have been brought to court. David Davies, mate of tho Raven," having deposed to the oar transaotion.said he did not see the affray. He took prosecutor back to his own vessel, after the row was over. He bad not the appearance of being badly abused, and he went aboard his vessel from the boat without assistance. This witness did not know anything about the matter nor did he know what state prosecutor was in, for he did not look at him. When under cross examin. ation be said :—Mr Roberts, it is no use of you blathering" me. I have not come here to tell any lies. Mr Roberts: I know you will not Mr Davies Witness Then it is of no use of you asking questions, for I will net answer you. In reply to the Chairman witness said prosecutor was not insensible. Joseph Evans, master of the lifeboat, de- posed to seeing Haughton striking Jones, but he only used his fist. The struggle did not last above one or two ninutes. By the Chairman: He did not know whether the man was insensible or not. Haughton did not strike Jones while he was down, nor did he use his foot. The Chairman said the magistrates had no doubt buc aefendant had been provoked, bu" he had no business to take the law into his own hands. He would therefore be fined 10s. with t2 Od. 6d. costs. A MULTITUDE OF CHARGES. Joseph Hughes, Gas. and Henry Daviep, were charged with three separate oases of poaching committed on the same day (21st of February), by the same complainant, Anthony White, game keeper on the Kin nel estate. The police also had a charge under the poaching prevention act against the defendants iu respect of the same day.—Mr Edward Roberts appeared to prosecute, and Mr Alun Lloy I de. fended, and applied for an adjournment. He said that the summonses though taken out on the 24th of February, were not served till the 5ih of March, and his clients had not had sufficient time to properly instruct him in their defence. He believed that he could show to their worships that all these four oharges were really one offence arising out of four actions; but as he was unable, the time being so short, to get at a partionlar law book, he could not speak even generally on the point. It was ultimately agreed to proceed with one case. The prosecutor stated he saw defendants on Penyffridd farm, about 11 o'clock on the day in question, and he lost sight of them about 12 o'clock in a wood, which they entered. Joseph Hughes had a gun in his hand.-la cross-examination witness said he treated Joseph Hnghei to two glasses of beer at Foryd after the date of the effenoes, and also gave him 6d because he said his little girl was ill. For the defence Mr Lloyd was glad to see a gamekeeper giving his evidence in such a clear manner, and with so little feeling but he was instructed that Hughes was not at the place mentioned by White on that day, and that it was a case of mistaken identity. Daniel Davies was called for the defence, and said he saw Joseph Hughes in Rhyl, about 10.30 o'clock, on the morning in ques* tion defendant bought a piece of meat from him. and left his shop about twenty minutes to 11 o'clock. Dr. Thomas, it was stated, called at Hughes' house, on that day, when he "as at home, but the dootor when oalled could not say whether he did or not. He was not prepared to give evidence had he known he would be required, he would have looked up his books. It was here arranged that the police would withdraw their case if a conviction was ob- tained in the other. Mr Roberts withdrew a charge against the defendat.'s of killing game on the same date, and Mr Alun Lloyd pleaded guilty to one of trespass on land in the oecu. pation of Mr Edward Jones. Therefore the whole thing was merged into two charges. In the result Hughes was fined 15s. with 16s. 3i. costs on the first charge and fined; 15s. and 15s. 9d. costs on the second; in de- fault, 14 days in each case. Davies in the first charge, fined 15s. with 15s. 3d. costs, and in the second 15s 3d. fine, aud costs of 15s. 3d in default, the same term of imprisonment. A WITHDRAWN CASE OF ASSAULT. On the application of the prosecutrix, the case of Elizabeth Williams against Mary Evans for an assault was withdrawn. There was no appearance in the case of Margaret Davies against Llewelyn Lloyd Davi is, for an assault. ? HAWKING WITHOUT A LICENSE. Thomas Hughes, Abergele, was charged by P.C. Taafe, with hawking in Sussex street. The defendant admitted the offence, but said he thought he was allowed to offer poultry and rabbits to the dealers at their shops.- The officer said he was offsiing poultry to Mrs Griffiths, Sussex street.—Fined 3s. with 12s. oosts. Court tiat till 4.15.
