OWINO to a serious water difficulty in the workings, the hands employed at Coed Talon Colliery are under notice. A middle-aged woman was killed at Rhosnesaney on Chriritmay Day. She tried to stop a horse, missed the reins, and fell, the trap passing over her. IT is gratifying to know, on the authority of Mr h b 1 'I)' Iv 1 R. Ap Hugh Williams, that Bishop Ed wards is rapidly winning the confidence and goodwill of all men in this country. TnosK affected by the Workshop and Factory Act would do well to peruse a letter from the Government Inspector, which is in our corres- pondence colunm. THE Yen. Archdeacon Howell, writing on the vitality of the Welsh language," says it would be a loss to the world if it were to be relegated to the limbo of dead languages. RommT WILLIAMS, of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, who had only come out of prison a few days before, was on Tuesday sentenced at Wrexham to four months' hard labor for all assault on the police. AN interesting explanation, to be found else- where, was read at a competitive meeting at. Berriew from Mr A. C. Humphreys-Owen, point- ing out what the County Council may do to assist in the creation of small holdings. TnE Bishop of Chester's licensing scheme has naturally attracted much criticism of a mixed character. His lordship desires it to be under- stood that philanthropy at five per cent. is no settled part of his programme. DUIIING the past year no less than sixty-one new members have joined the Wrexham Lodge of Shepherds. This does not seem to bear out the complaints of some who allege that the ordinary Friendly Society is being adversely affected by the modern Tontine organisation. IN a thoughtful address at Llanfair P.G., Mr T. E. Ellis, M.P., spoke upon the duties of young Welshmen. He urged the importance of public libraries in country places, and that young people should take part in all political, social, and re- ligious questions and controversies in their dis- trict. WE publish another letter from Mr Venables Kyrke on mining royalties, together with a com- munication from Mr N. R. Griffith on the same important subject. As the question is one of peculias concern to lessees, it would not be inap- propriate if one or more of them were to give the public the benefit of their views. THE ways of the country, viewed from the town, are apt to be regarded as primitivefand dull. A Liverpool visitor to Barton introduced a revolver, and his playful proceedings do not seem to have been approved, for after encounter- ing the police, Mr William John Smith was taken in hand by the Excise. They informed the Broxton magistrates that a licence had not been taken out, and there was the usual result —10s and costs. THE Rev. T. Lloyd Willi ims, who, as the organising secretary of the Society for the Pro- pagation of the Gospel, possesses a wide knowledge of the Principality, has addressed a letter, which we re-produce elsewhere, to Mr Lloyd George. to -J r Ll(.,?-d Geor g e. M.P., in reference to a speech lie delivered at a disestablishment meeting at Shrewsbury. The Bishop of St. Asaph certainly has a vigorous defender in Mr Williams. THE Earl of Wincliilsea is busily engaged in in- augurating an Agricultural Union. Bi-metallism and protection form no part of the programme. The Union, the noble Earl considers, should be a powerful instrument for checking adulteration and fradulent trading, and as an illustration. reference is made to a purveyor who acknowledged having gained a fortune of £ 20,000 out of Canadian meat, which he disposed of as English. IN a fickle climate like this, it is just as well to select recreations that harmoniously blend with the elements. Apparently angling is a pastime that does not clash with the weather, as we notice •». competition took place on the Thames on Tues- day The first prize was taken by the occupant of a pLmt in the vicinitv of Monkey Island, who caught "I' cliiib -eigiiing altogether 81b. lOAoz. And yet thertnro some narrow-minded individuals who rail to understu-oj the allurements the sport has for appreciative, coa(-ea)p]atiVe, philosophical minds.  Eaton. Tm: Rev. A. p- Talbot, retor (A Church Eaton. Staffordshire, has been seriously thinkin? and speaking at the opening of a recreation hall in his parish, he gave expression to his thoughts. In country places they wanted. livcn- ing up,"and to be taught to use their hands and heads. As to how the latter is to be done no in- formation is afforded, but as to the former, l recommends that boys should he taught to box and use single-stick*. as he believed that such exercises would help them to <e care of them- selves, to keep their tempers, and to tato a licking without showing spite. He also hoped to see ladies and girls of the parish taught to provide better dinners, for he was convinced that life would be much pleasanter in many homes if the food were better prepared for the wage- earner. -.————&——_

Flintshire Unionism. COLONEL STANDISoH HORK is a political Mark Tapley. This is a compliment, a high one, which we think is the gallant colonel's due. As everyone knows-and we take it for granted that Charles Dickens is known everywhere—Mark Tapley was of a genial disposition, and especially did this pleasing char- acteristic come into prominence when things were contrary, and the outlook the reverse of cheerful. As most people will admit, Toryism in Flintshire has had a chequered career, and in the absence of encouraging indications, it will have as much as it can do to maintain a precarious existence. This would dishearten some timid dispositions, but to Colonel Standisli Hore it affords substantial ground for satisfaction. In an after-dinnei speech at St. Asaph, the colonel, replying to the toast of the "Constitutional" Club, reviewcd the past, and looked forward to the future undismayed. He congratulated the little cathedral city upon having at the last election polled for Sir Robert Cunliffe an unprecedented majority." They had a Unionist majority in St. Asaph, and if the whole county only followed its lead, a Unionist member would be returned. Supposing, for the sake of argument, that the position in St. Asaph is as the speaker repre- sented, and that it was equally good throughout Flintshire, then a change in the representation might be effected. Unfortunately that little, but significant, word if has to be reckoned with, and so far it has been a stumbling block upon which Unionism in Flintshire has come to grief. Some of the advice given to the "Constitutional club by Col. Hore can be accepted and acted upou with profit by politicians great and small. Let all stick to their colors, and never say die." That is a sentiment we cordially endorse. Both Liberils and Tories are inspired with the same motive, to promote the welfare of their great country. They work in different ways, but as long as they are animated by thii principle, let the struggle be as- persistent and severe as it may, good will come of it. Tl:e Unionists of Flintshire are to be congratulated upon having a stalwart supporter like the gallant- Colonel to inspire them. He refuses to acknow- ledge defeat, and is prepared to renew the fight at. the earliest opportunity. This is a spirit that wep admire in friend or foe, and long may it thrive. ————— «—

Mr Gladstone. ON Thursday Mr Gladstone cele- bra,t,ed his eighty-third birthday in sunny Biarritz, iyiti to him have been sent congratulations from all parts of the United Kingdom and the world. To these, Wales so long devoted to the c;ltice which he so con- summately leads, naturally joins. We all wish him boalth and strength to carry out his Irish reforms. and then we renew the hope that ho will still be spared to relieve Wales of that injustice which. she has protested against with such remarks.hie and unprecedented unanimity. Mr Gladstone ts a marvel to his friends, and a PU7"z)P to his opponents. As the Daily New* says 1, he should have become Prime Minister for the fourth time in his eighty-third year is sufifciently remark- able without fictitious refinements u^on the plain truth. There has, of course, been nothing like it in English history. For Mr Gladstone there is no precede, The general oiection displaced the
