--A--FESTINIOG.
--A-- FESTINIOG. DISTRICT COUNCIL. A special meeting of the Council was held on Thursday evening, to consider the report of the Medical Officer of Health. Mr. W. Owen presided. SANITARY MATTERS. Dr. Richard Jones explained that the birth-rate showed an increase while the death-rate showed a larger decrease as compared with the return of 1896. The birth-rate had been above the average for a number of years, and this might have an indirect.influence on the death-rate, particularly the rate of infant mortality. He recommended a perfect system of drainage: dry. healthy dwellings, with healthy surroundings; wholesome unadulter- ated food; and cleanliness in all its form. The responsibility of the Council in some of these matters were no less important that that of parents and guardians, in view of the fact that thecnildsen of to-day would be the ratepayers of the future. The lowest death-rate was found in the Teigil and Cynfal wards (16.6), and the highest (21.6) in Diphwys ward. The number of iatal accidents at the quarries, the staple industry of the district, during: the last three years was as follows:—1896, 3: 1887, 1 1898, 4; the rate being 0.65 per 1,000 men employed. The milk supply of the district continued to be good, and as about 120,000gallons were imported annually, it was important that the local authority should exercise the greatest care in insisting upon the quality being pure. He would I ( Z, recommend that all persons carrying on the trade of dairymen or purveyors of milk should be registered; that a regular in- spection of cattle, cowsheds, dairies, &c., especially with regard to cleansing, drainage, and water supply be made imperative, and that every care should be taken to prevent the milk sold from being contaminated or infected. He pointed out that the district contained only one common regis- tered lodging-house, which was far from adequate in such a populous district, and maintained that a ottage hospital was urgently required in order to facilitate the recovery of persons who had suffered from serious accidents.—Upon the motion of Mr. Owen Roberts, seconded by Mr. Humphrey Roberts, a copy of the Dairies, Cowsheds, and Miik Shops Order, 1885, was ordered to be supplied in order to enable them to frame the necessary bye-laws for the protection of milk consumers. ill r. 0. J. Owen (Rhiw), proposed, and Mr. E. J. Lloyd- Powell seconded that so.-tion of the Public Health Act relating to the notification of diseases be translated into Welsh and adopted.—Mr. Owen Jones proposed that the member for the county (Mr. O. M. Edwards) be approached with regard to the desirability of having all Acts of Parlia- ment relating to the health of the public published in Welsh as well as in English.—Mr. Howell Jones seconded and the matter was passed unanimously. -On the motion of Mr. Evan R. Jones, seconded by Mr. O. J. Owen, it was resolved to publish a Welsh leaflet containing instructions as to nursing and to distribute it throughout the district. COTTAGE HOSPITAL. On the motion of Mr. Lloyd-Powell, seconded by Mr, J. T. Jones., it was resolved that the quarry owners be approached with the view of erecting a cottage hospital for the use of quarry- men and otliers.A vote of Lhanks was passed to the medical officer.

QUERIES.
QUERIES. Can any of your readers tell me anything about the following ? (1) the factri' that used to be in Poplar Row, near Skinner-street; (2) Why Poplar Row was so called the old foundry that used to be near the junction of Llanbadarn Road and Penglais road, and In what year it was done away with. A.A. Will any of your local antiquarians acquaint me with an account of the windmill that gave the name to Windmill Court, and ,he old mill that ga.ve the name to Mill street ? What is the meaning of the name Penmaesglas? Where was Rosemary street. D.L. Can any one tell me if the word hemyn is still extant for rivet" and hemynu" for rivet- ting ?I have only once heard the word used; it cropped up in a Celtic class, and was furnished by an Ardudwy man. Perhaps some of our seafaring friends can give iis the colloquial Welsh for the following nautical terms:—mainsail, jib, mainsheet, head sheets, r halliard, boom tiller, stem (or forefoot), stern, beam; the names of t.hl> various strokes, cleat, gunnle," lee helm, weather helm, long line (in -fishing), backstays. The information will be valuable, as the Welsh terms, which must have existed in times gone by, seem to have disappeared in most places. CHWILOTWR.

Antiquities of Meirion. At the Entrance to the Happy Valley on the left is situated the ancient mansion of Bodtalog, at "which entrance gate in times long gone by, appari- tions. it is said appeared nightly to those who happened to pass that way after dusk, and on fairy moonlights the elves and sprites Loved to sport in the still moon light, And play with the peaiis of shadowy night." But these spectres have disappeared with an en- lightened age. The mansion is now in the occupa- tion of the Manders family of Birmingham. In Towyll Church may be seen a tablet to the memory of one Louis De Saumaize, born at Breda, Holland. Louis was direct descendant of Claude De Saumaize, who, professing the Protestant Reformed Religion removed into Holland from Burgundy in 1629, and who, much distinguished in the learning of the age, was remarkably "engaged by the defence of the memory of King Charles I, in literary contest with John Milton." This is John Milton, the Poet of the Puritans and author of "Paradise Lost," &c. Louis De Saumaize married the only daughter of "William Lewis Amvvl, of Bodtalog, Towyn. After the death of Louis, Mrs. De Saumaize was married to Edward Scott, Esquire, of Scott's Hall, in the County of Kent, arm who at, Jjodtalog. How "Welsh proper names are corrupted.

'TIS TRUE, 'TIS PITY, AND PITY 'TIS'TIS TRUE.— All friends of temperanc deprecate the fact that there is no kind of movement for old or young to inculcate the principles of temperance. This is the more to be regretted when the baneful tendency of the future generation to become votaries of Bacchus is considered. Wake up, Eglwys Loegr. Shon Gorph, deffro.

WORLD IN A WEEK.
WORLD IN A WEEK. The Westralian Assembly are considering a motion conferring the franchise on women. It is supported by the Premier. A punitive force sent by the Royal Niger Com- pany from Ibi has captured a chief and killed many of the enemy. A lieutenant of the Royal Horse Guards was wounded. News comes from Perth, Western Australia, of the loss of the British sailing ship, Carlisle Castle," with all hands, off Rockingham. Mr. Chaplain, President of the Local Govern- ment Board, has appointed a Departmental Com- mittee to inquire into the use of 11 preservatives and colouring matters in food Severe Thunderstorm were experienced in a number of districts in the North of England last week. Several cases of loss of life by lightning are reported, and considerable damage has been done to property. The polling took place on Wednesday week in East St. Pancras, and resulted in the return of the Conservative candidate by 2,610 votes against 2,423 given for Mr. Costelloe, Liberal. In 1895 Mr. Costelloe was beaten by 289. A serious accident happened to a traction engine which was drawing three furniture vans on the Bwlch-road, between Mold and Ruthin began the driver, in changing his gear. lost control of the engine, which dashed down into a dingle, carrying the vans with it. One man named Carpwell was killed, another was seriously injured, and a third escaped with slighter injuries. Messrs. Perch and Co. are selecting sites for two new pits at Blaencorrwg, which will be sunk to about 450 feet to reach what are stated on good authority to be of the finest undisturbed coal seams in South Wales. Later reports show that the storm on Wednesday raged with astonishing violence in parts of West- moreland and North Yorkshire. Floods were caused by the great volumes of rain, the ballast was washed from under the line at several points on the railway, and a number of bridges were swept away. One of the men who were struck by lightning at Thorne died yesterday. The new Transvaal franchise law was laid before the Boer Volksraad on Wednesday, when the debate was adjourned. The preamble states that the matter will not admit of delay. The various articles agree in the main with the provisions as described in former messages. The Boer Govern- ment has replied to the Rand deputation on the question that the fort should not be used against Johannesburg in the event of hostilities that it is not their intention to make any attack except in self-defence. Meetings continue to be held in Cape Colony. The total number of plague cases at Alexandria to date is 68, including 27 deaths and 28 cures. Last week there were three new cases, four deaths, and four cures. A Preston publican was committed for trial on Saturday, on a charge of manslaughter. It is alleged that he struck or kicked his wife as she was getting out of bed, causing her to fall with her head against an open drawer, and that death subsequently occurred in consequence of the injuriesso received. Her body was found to be shockingly bruised, the result of long-continued ill-usage. At the Shropshire Assizes on Saturday a verdict of manslaughter was returned against Mary E. Allman, a nurse girl aged fifteen, who was charged with the murder of one of her master's children. A little boy and a girl were drowned within a few days of each other in a pond on the employer's farm, and it was alleged that the prisoner pushed at least one, if not both, into the .water. The prisoner, who has told several different stories about the matter, admitted in one of them that she saw the little girl struggling in the pond and did not attempt to rescue her. No motive was apparently disclosed for her extraordinary conduct. Sentence was deferred. THE GLADSTONE MEMORIAL. The Gladstone National Memorial Fund will shortly be closed. Of about L31,600 received £6,000 have been contributed locally in various counties, cities, and town*. Contributions should be sent to the western branch of the Bank of England, London. WAR MATERIAL FOR SOUTH AFRICA. The Press Association Woolwich correspondent states that a number of huge cases, containing 15-pounder gun carriages, together with a large consignment of picket posts, tarpaulin, boxes of horseshoes, and gun carriage wheels, were taken from the Royal Arsenal to the docks in barges for shipment to South Africa, where they will be handed over to the ordnance officer at Maritzburg, Natal. The gun carriages, in accordance with War Office instructions, have been painted khaki colour. A large quantity of ammunition is also leaving for South Africa, to be followed by a consignment of explosives, which is being prepared with all speed. ACCIDENT IN THE HAYFIELD. A frightful accident happened near Middlewich, Cheshire, on Friday afternoon, about four o'clock, resulting in the death of Samuel Slack, aged thirty-eight, son of Mr. Allen Slack, farmer, Leese. Deceased was engaged in carting hay when the horse bolted. He was struck by the shaft, and falling to the ground a cart wheel passed over his body, When picked up it was found that deceased bad received a severe fracture of the head, broken leg, arm, and ribs. Dr. Mitchell was soon in attendance, but pronounced life extinct. The horse travelled four miles before being secured. DOUBLE DEATH SENTENCE. A soldier named Pierron, who was recently sen- tenced to death for assaulting his superior officer, and was pardoned by the President of the Re- public, was brought before the court martial on Friday to have the pardon read over to him. The clerk of the court had just finished reading the document when the prisoner took off the buckle of his belt and threw it at the presiding officer, strik- ing him on the arm. The prisoner was at once charged with this offence, and was again sentenced to death. FATAL BATHING ACCIDENTS. On Friday a young man named Albert Davies, a clerk in the employ of the Bridgwater Trustees, and who lived at Moorside, Swinton, near Man- chester, was drowned while swimming in the sea at Colwyn Bay. He was on a short visit with his parents and intended returning home Saturday. In company with his father and mother, he went down to the beach to bathe, as he had done on the previous day at eleven o'clock, and half an hour later was missed. A search party was at once formed, and continued operations until a late hour, but without avail. The scene on the beach when the mother discovered that her son had been lost was pathetic. On Friday, at Allendale, Deganwy, an inquest was held by Mr. L. R. Thomas, deputy coroner, on the body of Mr. Thomas Richard Mellor, who was drowned on Wednesday whilst bathing in the Colwyn estuary. Mr. Mellor, who was 60 years of age was a native of Manchester, but had resided at Deganwy for some years.— Alfred Mellor, the son, gave evidence of identifica- tion. Edith Matthews, Teganwy, stated that she saw Mr. Mellor in the water. She spoke to him at one o'clock on the way to the bathing place. He seemed in his usual health. A few minutes later she saw him in the water. He did not appear to be either swimming or floating and soon after- wards disappeared. STRUCK BY LIGHTNING. EXTRAORDINARY EFFECT. An extraordinary story comes from a corres- pondent at Fordham, Suffolk. On Thursday, he telegraphs, George Fordhaya, aged 19, whilst leaning on a wire clothes line, which acted as a conductor during the storm, was struck bv light- ning and rendered unconscious and apparently lifeless. The impression of a walnut tree twenty yards distant was photographed on his breast through all his clothing. Dr. Willis, of Soham, attended, and first aid was rendered by a Lanca- shire visitor named Turner, and the young fellow recovered consciousness. Three men were struck by lightning on Wednes- day at Thorner, near Leeds. One of them, named Thomas Barely, died on Thursday afternoon. His father, who was seriously injured, may recover. Moore has regained consciousness, but is not yet considered out of danger. At Rothwell, a young man named Harry Ellis was struck by lightning. He is employd as a firer, and while feeding the boiler fires the lightning struck his shovel and spun him round like a top. lie was removed in an unconsciousstate. CASE OF MARY ANSELL. lit answer to a petition for the reprieve of Mary An-sell, Vho murdered her insane sister by means of poisoned eake, and now awaits execution in St. A1 ban's Prison, the Hojtie Secretary on announced that having caused a special inquiry to be made as to the convict's condition by Dr. D. Nicholson, Visitor of Lunacy, and Dr. R. Brayn. superintendent of Broadmoor Asylum, he lias been unable to find any sufficient grounds to justify iiiro in advising her Majesty to interfere with OJ!? due course cf the law. ALONE ON THE ATLANTIC. The attempt of Captain W. A. Andrews to cross the Atlantic in a small boat has failed. He is now in Manchester, having arrived on board the steam- ship Holbein, which picked him up in an exhausted and perilous condition 700 miles out at sea. DROWNED IN THE SEVERN. Two boys, sons of a ferryman at Newnham, in the Forest of Dean, were paddling about in shallow water in the river Severn, on Monday, close to where their father was working. After some time they were missing, and their dead bodies were afterwards recovered. THE PARIS. The liner Paris has at last been got off the rocks' Whilst being towed from the Manacles to Falmouth on Wednesday night, the Paris" nearly went ashore again on the ridge on which the Mohegan foundered. One of the German salving boats cast off the hawser through a misunderstanding, and the liner commenced drifting towards the danger- ous shoal. The Falmouth tug Victor, however, responded to the shouts of those on the Paris, and got a hawser aboard and towed her out of danger SUNDAY TRADING BY JEWS. It has been the custom for Jews in all the Welsh towns where there is compulsory Sunday closing to remain open on that day. The legality of this has just been tested in Rhyl, where a tobacconist carry- ing on business in several parts of the to .vn was summoned. He admitted doing so, having thought that shopkeepers of the Jewish persuasion were exempted from the Act. Nevertheless he was fined. SHIPWRECKS. During a storm on the coast last week, the sailing ship Carlisle Castle, from the Clyde for Fremantle, was lost with all hands off Rockingham. At about the same time the City of York, bound from San Francisco for Fremantle, was wrecked off Rottnest Island. The captain and eleven men of her crew are missing. Seven others have been saved. It has been ascertained that of those on board the City of New York eleven were drowned, while fifteen have been saved. The first officer and boatswain are the only surviving officers. A search steamer sent out reports that the coast is strewn with the cargo of the Carlisle Castle, but no trace of the crew has been found. THE NATIONAL EISTEDDFOD. The National Eisteddfod of Wales opened at Car- diff on Tuesday. On Monday a large number of Breton delegates arrived in the town. Various preliminary meetings were held, and in the evening the mayor (Alderman Sir Thomas Morel) gave a reception, which was largely attended. The first Gorsedd was held on Tuesday morning in Cathays Park at nine o'clock, and it was one of the most interesting gatherings ever held in con- nection with the National Eisteddfod. After the Gorsedd proceedings the eisteddfod proper opened in the pavilion at 10.30 a.m., when Lord Windsor and Lord Tredegar were the presidents, and Dr. T. C. Edwards (" Cynonfardd") and Mr. W. Edwards (" Myrddinwyson ") the conductors. In the evening there was a Welsh concert, pre- sided over by Mr. O. M. Edwards, M.P. WHY THE DEAN REFUSED. The reason why the Dean of Hereford did not, as was anticipated, open the recent bazaar at Muswell-hill in aid of the St. James's Church rebuilding fund has just been explained by Miss Florence Balgarnie, at the annual meeting of the local branch of the British Women's Temperance Association. The dean, it appears, is a very keen temperance advocate, and on hearing that the vicar, Rev. J. S. Whichelow, had taken out a license to sell tobacco at the bazaar, he absolutely refused to attend, and a lady had to take his place. On the following day the vicar, in the eyes of the temperance party, filled up the measure of his iniquities by allowing Mr. George Allsopp. M.P., of brewing fame, to open the second days pro- ceedings. PWLLHELI DISASTER. INQUEST AND VERDICT. The Coroner's inquiry touching the deaths of the twelve victims of the Pwllheli boating disaster was resumed on Monday. Superintendent Jones deposed that when the first four bodies were recovered shortly after the accident an hour was occupied in an attempt to restore animation. Mr. Evan Davies, town clerk, Pwllheli, said the Council had no power to compel boatmen to licence their craft. Anyone could ply for hire without the Council being able to interfere. In 1897 they applied for power in a Bill to compel everybody to licence their boats, but the House of Lords Committee deleted the clause. The jury brought in a verdict that the accident was caused by the swamping of the boat in consequence of a change of wind aggravated by John Hughes moving in the boat against the boatman's authority. The jury added that it would be advisable in future to count the passengers before leaving the shore, so as to make sure that the boat was not over- loaded, and that the Urban Council should apply for compulsory powers for the registration of boats. PERILS OF CYCLING. On Sunday Mr. Langdon, son of Captain Langdon, of Swansea, met with a serious cycling accident. He had been spending a short holiday at Llan- gennith, and on Sunday he cycled over to Port Eynon Church to attend a Volunteer church parade. On the return journey he apparently became over- come with the heat and he fell from his machine. He was found some time time afterwards suffering from concussion of the brain. His condition, it is feared, is serious, though lie has recovered con- sciousness. On Monday afternoon a young man residing at Llanelly-street, East Moors, Cardiff, was riding a bicycle down Splott-road when he lost control of his machine, and running over upon the pavement went through the shop window of Mr. Wotton, receiving severe cuts about the head and legs. On Saturday Mr. Johnson, jeweller, of Birming- ham, rode on his bicycle from Birinizillbaiii:to Llan- gollen throughout the day in the hot sun. On arriving at Vroncysylltan, in the Vale of Llan- gollen, about 8 o'clock in the evening, he fell from his cycle and was conveyed 'by passers-by to the Britannia Inn, where life was pronounced extinct. On Monday night a young man from Manchester was thrown from his bicycle near Devil's Bridge, Aberystwyth, and received severe injuries to his head and shoulder. He is now at the Infirmary. PHILIPPINES WAR. The Washington correspondent of the Daily Chronicle on Thursday says:—The papers at last demand a more vigorous prosecution of the Phillipine war. The Boston Globe," the most influential newspapers in New England, suggests that General Otis should be recalled and General Miles given supreme command. It also recom- mends that Colonel Wood should be transferred from Santiago to Manila as Military Governor. The newspapers throughout the country heartily endorse the Globe's" suggestion, but General Miles has incurred the enmity of the President and Mr. Alger, and will not be given the command unless the popular demand is so great as to force the action on the Government. Mr. Depew, at a public dinner on Wednesday night, said every energy should be bent to sending a sufficient force to crush the rebels in six weeks. The feeling throughout the country of dissatis- faction at the President's conduct of the war is growing daily, and threatens a serious political danger to the Administration unless a change be quickly made.
GUARDIANS AND OLD AGE.
GUARDIANS AND OLD AGE. At the meeting of the Poplar Guardians the committee appointed to consider the cases of those inmates over sixty who might be boarded out with their relatives, reported that they had inquired into the circumstances of 1,000 aged inmates, but that in the majority of cases, having regard to the age and infirmity of such persons, some of whom were blind aud others quite helpless, they were satisfied that they would not be as well cared for outside as in the workhouse. This was recognised by the inmates themselves, who spoke gratefully of the treatment they received in the workhouse, and expressed a strong desire to remain there. Two hundred and twenty cases were set for further consideration, and of these forty-seven had been boarded out, 130 were not considered suitable, eleven had no accommodation outside, fourteen had discharged themselves, and the remainder had either died or were sick. The report was coruiulered most satisfactory.

Dywedid fod ysgydwad Haw y Tywysog yn arddangosiad o'i lawenydd wrth weled un o'r buddugwyr yn ngwisg briodol y Show, yn hytrach na bod wedi ei wisgo fel ar gyfer claddedigaeth.

Y BARNWIl KENNEDY A'R GYMRAEG. Mae'r Barnwr Kennedy yn haeddu Hir a Thodd- aid yn yr Eisteddfod nesaf am ei gallineb yn rhoddi pob rhyddid i dystion siarad Cymraeg, ac am ei eiriau parchus at yr iaith. Digon hawdd dweyd mai peth hynod yw gwobrwyo dyn yn unig am beidio bod yn ffol, ond mae'n rhaid cofio mai Sais yw'r Barnwr, ac nid ydym yn disgwyl rhyw lawer o ras gan Farnwyr Seisnig. Dyn call, mwyn a chanddo gydymdeimlad at y cenhedloedd' bycbain ydyw'r Barnwr Kennedy, ac fe wnaeth lawer yn ei ddydd dros Ryddfrydiaetln Dywedwn wrtho, "Brysiwch yma eto."
EISTEDDFOD CAERDYDD.
EISTEDDFOD CAERDYDD. Tra'r ydym yn ysgrifenu y mae'r Eisteddfod yn myned rhagddi gycla rhwysg onarferol. Mae'r Celtiaid wedi ymgynnull o'r lwerddon, yr Alban, ly Ynys Manaw, a Llydaw, ac ni chawsant erioed y fath groesaw gan neb o'r blaen. Rhoddwyd cleddvf ncwydd yr orsedd ar waith am y tro cyntar, ac ie fu rhaid i Hwfa Mon sdvll ar fiaenau ei draed, a chydio yn nghanol ei Ilain i'w gewino, obiegyd ei chwe troedfedd o hyd. Bu llawer o rygnu ar englynion rhwng y beirdd, a churo tracd a dwylaw gan y dorf. Y peth difyraf o'r cwbl oedd gwaith y Llydawyr yn canu eu halawon cenedlaethol. Mae yr alawon hyn mor G nireig- a 'seiat broiiad. Or Alban daeth y I chwech o bibgodwyr, yn chwyiLu nes oedd eu bochau fel dwy bel droc-d, a'u llygaid fel Pygaid crancod yn sefyll yn cu penau. Yr oedd golwg ffyrnig ar ein Beirdd ni, ac yr oedd y cynghaneddion yn melltenu o'u safnau. Yr oedd gofyn cael yspectol dywyll i edrych arnynt, a haner dwsin o eiriaduron i ddeall eu sgwrs. Cawn ha,10s bellach yr wythnos nesaf. <
Y TRANSVAAL.
Y TRANSVAAL. Ychwaneg o tilwyl mae'r Llywodraeth wrthi yn danfon hyny fedrant i De Affrig. Y Transvaal druan! Bwriwn mai Cymry oedd wedi meddianu'r wlad ar y cyntaf yn lie y Boeriaid oni fuasai pob copa walltog o honom yn melldithio'r Sais tu hwnt i'r un felldith ar a glybwyd erioed? Pwy o honom na fuasai yn dymuno o'i galon glywed fod pob bwled o ddryll Cymro wedi cyraedd diben ei gread- igaeth? Onid perffaith naturiol i'r Boeriaid yn y Cape deimlo yr un peth ? Cyn i'r Saeson ofyn am yr hawl i gael addysg i'w plant yn eu hiaith hwy eu hunain, gweddusach a fyddai iddynt ddechreu rhoddi cyfiawnder gartref cyn ei ofyn ef yn bell. Mae'r ben griw Toriaidd yn poeri dirmyg ar y Cenhedloedd bycbain; ond dal ati yr hen Kruger wydn, a phan gei di dy gyfleu, dyro gic iddyn nhw, y cnafon ag ydynt! Yr ydym yn lied ofni mai anoethineb y Boeriaid ieuainc a rydd ddechreu i'r gynen, os daw hi hefyd. Mae ffyliaid yn mhob cenedl, ac nid yw'r Boeriaid ieuainc wedi dysgu eto mai Kruger sydd yn ei le. Mae yr hen facbgen mor gyfrwys a llon'd trol o fwncis, ac ond i'r llebanod ceiliogaidd ei ganlyn ef, credwn y daw pob peth yn iawn. Y mae rhyw Gymry yn Ne Affrig wedi danfon telegram at Bryn Roberts yn ei feio ef am siarad dros y Boeriaid, ac yn dywedyd ei fod ef yn fefl ar y Cymry. Yr offt fawr iddynt! Byddai yn dda iddynt wybod fod y Cymry gartref yn diystyru y fath ffwlbri. Nid ydym am gefnogi yr un drygioni er mwyn i'r dyrnaid liwnw lenwi eupocedau. Beth bynag, nid ydym am ymffrostio yn ein cenedl yn Ne Affrig nes y dangosant ychydig ragor o synwyr cyffredin.
BLODE'R HAF.
BLODE'R HAF. Pa ryw arogl per, iraidd, Drwy yr awelon a draidd 1 Awyr sawyr bwysiau Ym mhob cwrr i'm bywioccau. —EBEN FARDD. Hawddamor i'r Haf.—Y mae'r meusydd yn awr yn frith gan flodeu amryliw, ac y mae'r awelon yn ber gan eu harogl hyfryd. Yn yr Haf, ceir fasw dwf ar faes a dol," ac ymhob man fe wrelir tlws wrth dlws yn ystlysu." Y mae nifer y blodeu geir ar fryn a dol yn nghanol Gorphenaf yn llawer rhv liosog i ni sylwi ond ar ychydig o'r rhai mwyaf cyffredin a tharawiadol. Nid oes ond odid dim o fewn Natur yn cyfranu cymaint tuag at swynion ac hyfrydweh yr Haf a pherarogl ei dail a'i blodau. Trwy gydol y tymor hwn fe geir rhyw sawyr hyfryd yn cael ei wasgar yn ddiball o'r llwyni a'r perthi. Y maent yn dvfod yn rhcolaidd y naill ar ol y llall. Wedi blodau'r drain daw'r Masarn lydanfrig ac ar ol y Masarn daw'r Gwinwydd a'r Rhos; ac yn ol darfod o'r rhain daw Chwys Arthur i daenu ei arogl hyfryd i bob awel [svdd yn ehedeg uwcli y :ddol. Ystyriai y diweddar John Henry Newman fod rhyw gyssylltiad cyfrin rhwng ymddangosiad y blodeu a phresenoldeb bodau goruwch yn Natur. Iddo ef yr oedd ymddangosiad y blodeu yn am- lygiad o'r fnefolion fodau yn y byd materol. Edrychai ar bob blodeuyn fel beirdd dlysau yn nghyrrau gwisgoedd engyl glan. Y mae y syniad yn un tlws, ac y mae llawer o wirionedd ynddo. Y mae llawer yn hiraethu am fyn'd o'r byd i gym- deithas angylion yn y nef heb fawr feddwl eu bod yn byw beunydd mewn paradwys sydd yn llawn o fodau glan, ac hardd rhyfeddol. Pan yr oedd Syr Norman Lockyer yn gwneyd ymchwiliadau gwydd- onol yn y Mynyddoedd Creigiog daeth o hyd i hen bererin pen-wyn mewn man anghysbell ar ben y mynydd. Synodd y doetbawr yn fawr weled hen wr pedwar ugain yn y fath le, a gofynodd iddo beth a'i dygodd yno. Breuddwyd," meddai; yr oeddwn yn hen ddiheu am y nef. Breuddwydiais fy mod wrth y drws, ac fod angel yn fy nghroesawu ar y trothwy. Llamais gan lawenydd wrth feddwl am y nef a'i rhyfeddodau fyrdd. Ac fel yr oeddwn ar fyned i mewn gofynodd yr Angel i'm os oeddwn wedi ymgydnabyddu yn gyntaf a rhyfeddodau daear lawr. Er iddo fy holi ynghylch pethau cyffredin, nis gallwn ei atteb; aethum yn fud. Yna fe'm trodd yn ol, gan ddywedyd, Dychwel, bydd yn llawn bryd it hiraethu am y nef wedi it ymgydnabyddu yn gyntaf a rhyfeddodau y ddaear.' Pan ddeffroais sylweddolais fod fy mreuddwyd yn llawn gwirionedd, ac mai ynfyd ydoedd trachwantu am fyd arall cyn yn gyntaf wybod rhagor am ddirgelion hwn." Ni raid fyned i wledydd tramor er dyfod o hyd i ryfeddodau y byd [lysieuig. Y mae Cors Garon a Chors Fochno yn dryfrith gan lysieuyn bychan sydd yn dal gwybed man wrth y'myrddiynau yn ystod dyddiau brwd yr baf. Y mae ei ddail yn cynwys lliaws o fysedd bychain glydiog, a man y disgyno y gwybedyn 1-1 y arnynt y maent yn cau am dano nes ei ddifetha a'i fwyta. Dalen fechan gron, a liw rhudd-goch sydd i'r llysieuyn hwn. Ei enw ydyw y Gwlithlys. Yn rhai o ffosydd Cors Garon ceir llysieuyn bychan arall sydd yn porthi ar bryfetach man. Y mae y rhwyd yn agor tuag i mewn yn unig. Blodyn pur gyffredin mewn caeau llafur ar hyn o bryd "ydyw blodyn y Pabi, neu fel y gelwir ef mewn rhai parthau, Llygad y Cythraul. Blodyn gorwych ond brau sydd i'r Pabi. Y peth hynotaf ynglyn ag ef ydyw ei ffrwyth. Y mae ei ffrwyth neu fel ei gelwir weithiau ei ben, wedi ei ranu i nifer o gelloedd pa rai sydd yn cynwys miloedd o hadau man. Y mae capan ar ben y ffrwyth ac o dan ymyl y capan ceir nifer o dyllau bychain drwy ba rai y mae'r hadau yn cael eu gwasgaru. Gan fod y tyllau wrth ben y ffrwyth ni syrth yr had ond pan eu teflir allan wrth fod yr holl gaingc yn cael ei hvsgwryd gan y gwynt. Drwy y ddyfais hon nid yw yr holl had yn syrthio oil i'r un man ar yr un pryd fel y mae'n amhvg y gwnelai pe byddai y tyllau wrth odreu y ffrwyth. Blodyn cyffredin iawn ydyw blodyn Dail Byscdd y Cwn neu y Bysedd Cochion. :B'e'i gwelir yn mhob ardal. Enwau Cymreig ereill ar y llysieuyn hwn ydyw Menyg yr Ellyll a Menyg y Llwynog ond y mae yn amlwg mai cyfieithiad o'r enw Seisnig Fox Glove ydyw yr olaf. Dywedir mai yr enw Seisnig priodol ydyw, nid Fox Glove ond Folk's Glove, sef yr un a'r enw Menyg yr Ellyll. Y mae yr enw hwn yn galw 1 o-of lawer o hen 'straeon am y tylwyth teg neu v bodau bychain a ddychmygai yr hen Gymry weled yn dawnsio yn nhes y glyn. Finger-hut ei gelwir vn Germany, digon tebyg am ei bod yn arferiad gan y plant yno fel yma i wisgo y blodau fel menyg am ei bysedd. Y mae blodau hardd lliwiedig fel y Bysedd Cochion yn cael ei ffrwythloni drwy gyfr'yngwriaeth gwybed, fel y wenynen a'r iar fach yr haf; a dyben yr ysmotiau gwyn sydd ar hyd y blodyn ydyw gwasanaethu fel llwybr i'r pryf i gyraedd y mel ac wrth gryhaedd y mel y maent yn ddiarwybod yn ffrwyth- loni yr had. Yr ydys wedi darganfod yn ddiweddar fod blodau un math o'r Pengaled yn meddwi y gwenyn a'r cacwn sydd yn ymweled a'i flodeuyn. Gyda ^eu bod yn dechreuCi sugno y maent yn cwympo yn swrth oddiarno, ac yn dyfod mor ddiymadferth ar meddwyn penaf ar yr ystryd.
TALGARREG.
TALGARREG. TE.—Dydd Gwener diweddaf, tua haner dydd bu Mr. Squibbs, arluniwr o Ceinewydd, yn tynu llun plant yr ysgol. Yr oedd tua 90 o blant yn bresenol ac yr oeddent oil, wrth gwrs, yn eu lliwiau pryd- ferthaf. Wedi darfod ysgol y prydnawn. cafodd yr ysgolheigion wledd o de a theisen fraith, yr hon a ddarparesid iddynt am eu ffyddlondeb yn mynychu yr ysgol y misoedd diweddaf, ac hefyd i'w symbylu i fwy o ffyddlondeb a diwydrwydd eto yn y dyfodol. Danfonodd Mr. Davies, Pantcoch Shop, botelaid fawr o felusion i'w rhanu rhwng y plant, am yr hyn y catodd eu diolchgarwch mwyaf calonog. Wedi ychydig seibiant, cymerodd y I plant eu heisteddleoedd drachefn yn yr ysgoldy a chynaliwyd cyfarfod adloniadol, cynwysedig o adrodd, canu. Itc. Canwyd amrywiol donau gan y plant, a chynorthwyd gan amryw gyfeillion caredig o'r lie. Barn unfryd y gwrandawyr am y cyfarfod oedd byr a blasus. Wele y rhaglen :— Unawdau swynol gan Mary Anna Thomas, Llain- delyn. Miss [Sarah Anne Evans, Post Office; a Miss Davies, Esger: deuawdau gan Miss M. A. Thomas, Llaindelyn a Mr. Jas. Oliver Lewis, Woodland; unawdau a chydgall gan Miss Davies, Esger; Miss Williams, Capel y Wig; Mri. Thomas Bryndelyn; Davies, Plas; Triawd gan Miss Wil- liams, Capel y Wig, Mrs. Davies, Plas, a Mr. Davies, ysgolfeistr; dau bedwarawd gan Mrs. Thomas, Greengrove, a'i chydgantorion, sef, Miss M. A. Thomas, Llaindelyn, Miss Ellen Thomas, a Mr. Johnny Thomas, Greengrove; ac adrodd- iadau gan Miss Catherine Anne Jones, Llawrcwrt; Miss Eliza Jones, Pwllybladur; Miss Margaret Davies, Esger, a Mri. Enoch Evans, Felin; a Evan Davies, Troedrhiw. FOWLS.—Y mae rhyw fath o golera o natur tra marwol yn cymeryd i ffwrdd ieir yr ardal. Collir mewn ambell le 'dros ddwsin mewn diwrnod, ac ymdacna yr liaint \n gyfiym. Nid diffyg glan- weidd-dra sydd yn acbosi. Yr arwyddion a gan- fyddir yw diffyg archwaeth at fwyd, cerddediad ystvfnig, tail gwyrddliw, y plu yn anniben. llygaid pwl. y grib a'r dagell yn duo, yr anadliad yn fynych a llafurus. dihoeni yn gysglyd, a diweddu mewn dirdyniadau.

MARWOLAETH Y CZAREWITCH. Bu Sior, etifedd gorsedd Rwssia farw'r wythnos ddiweddaf. Nid oedd ond newydd gyraedd ei wyth ar hugain oed. Ymddangosodd arwyddion y darfodedigaeth pan tua ugain oed, ond er hyny ymunodd a llynges ei wlad. Yn 1890 cafodd ym- osodiad ysgafn o'r Indian fever, ac ni bu fawr iechyd ynddo wedi hynny. Ganwyd ei frawd, Nicholas II, ymherawdwr presenol Rwssia, dair blynedd o'i flaen, ac un ar ugain ydyw oedran ei frawd sydd yn awr yn etifedd yr orsedd.

CYFFES-GELLOEDD YN YR EGLWYSI. Yn ol adroddiad yr Ysgrifenydd Cartrefol, gwelir fod y gyffes-gell i'w chael mewn pedair esgobaeth sef Llundain, Chichester, Rhydychain, a Southwell. Ysgrifena Esgob Llundain y gwneir defnydd mewn un eglwys o fath o hen fwyd-gist er gwrandaw cyffes. Mewn dwy arall rhyw le ychydig o'r neilldu a lien rhyngddynt a'r Egiwys geir. Mewn un Eglwys defnyddir blyebau-gweddi i'r amcan hwn. Mewn un Eglwys yn Esgobaeth Chichester, eistedda'r offeiriad mewn estafell ganolog, tra oddeutu mae tair ystafell fechan, a siarada trwy ffenestr fechan a'r bobl fyddont yn yr ystafelloedd hynny.
