WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 1885. DR. EDWARDS'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS. THE inaugural address delivered last night by Dr. EDWARDS in his capacity of President of the British Medical Association, dealt with a variety of topics, but was decidedly popular throughout. As a Welshman and a medical practitioner of long and honourable standing, Dr. EDWARDS is a man of whom his countrymen have no need to be ashamed. Hia services have by no means been confined to the profession which he follows. His name has always been identified with social, edu- cational, and religious movements. He is a member of the school board, and is also on I the Council of the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire. To him mainly indeed are the promoters and friends of the college looking for the early establishment of that Medical School which, as he ob- served in the course of his address, "we "hope at no distant time to see." He could not leave behind him a more noble or a more endearing monument. He would thus confer upon his native country a boon such as it never had before, an institution which iniglit yet ahed lustre upon the Principality. Let one only think how much Edinburgh, no mean city in itself, owes to its Medical School, and how many young Welshmen have gone there, and how many are there now acquiring knowledge and ex- perience which may yet, at some future time, be obtained in Cardiff. We hope that Dr. EDWARDS and other local practitioners will not allow the prospect of a Medical School for South Wales and Mon- mouthshire to grow dim or to recede, but will strenuously endeavour to realise it within a reasonable time. In referring to the rapid growth of Car- diff and its connection with the South Wales coalfield, the President referred in general terms to the "physical geology of "the Coal .Measures," and though he did "the Coal .Measures," and though he did not enter into the subject, we would suggest the propriety of a more thorough investigation of the relationship between geological formation and the sanitary conditions of health. We do not pretend to say that this subject is entirely overlooked, but we arc of opinion that it has not had tho attention which it merits. To do it justice would demand the collection of an enormous number of local facts and observations, but the accumulated results would, no doubt, well repay the collectors. The soil on which a house or a town is built is always carefully noted by the Public Officer of Health. All that is needed is a more thorough investigation over a wider range so as to supply the material for, what may yet become, a new science. We are glad that Dr EDWARDS leized the passing opportunity for rawing attention to hard worked, (ften misunderstood, and still more f-equently underrated and brow-beaten Kedical Officers of Health. He had not far togo for two of the best samples of the eliss, and we cordially concur in his enco- mum npon Dr. PAINE, of Cardiff, and Mr DtKE, of Merthyr, two noble veterans in tie cause, who have spent a large proportion b p oi their days ill services of the highest pos- si)le value, not only to the districts in which ttey have worked, but to the country generally. The results of their observa- tions, and the suggestions which they have male, have acquired for them something mere than a local name. The Medical Ofieer of Health is too often snubbed by sone paltry tradesman, who sits in great state upon a local board and looks down upoi him as condescendingly as if he were only his lackey. One of the mos. whoselsome remarks in the President's addieas was that in which he said that too ofen the best efforts of the Sanitary Offeers are thwarted by the ignorance of B4arcli of Guardians, or the still more "stupid selfishness and officialism of mis- naned Boards of Health." We commend the portion of the address in which these wordi occur to the earnest and, if we may speal theologically) heart-searching delibera- tion of the local boards and municipal corp<rations of South Wales. The communi catiois which we receive complaining of the remianess of these public bodies in matters affecthg the health and the lives of the people under their care form a very large proportion of the epistolary contributions whichcome in from every quarter. If we had a orovisi°n in one of our Sanitary Acts to the effect that cottage proprietors should '"not be iligible as members of local or sani- tarV bards, a great many nuisances would soon beswept away. We hope these gen- tlemen, or such of them, at least, as are at fault, wll bear in mind that prevention is "not oxly much better, but also much cheaper, than cure." In miking some brief allusions to the progress of medicine and its appliances within lis own lifetime, Dr. EDWARDS men- tioned tie "absurd anomalies of Coroners' Courts, and the very imperfect manner in which they investigate the causes of "death." Webelieve cases have happened which would justify one in asking if Coroners' Cours were established for the purpose of diking over well-grounded rumours and concealing the truth. But the whole system of inquiring into the causes of mysterious deahs needs revisal. Medico- legal inquiries wil never be placed upon a better footing untl there is a little more of that fearless outpokenness without which reforms are never lommenced.

MR BRIGHT ON HIS DEFENCE. THE attempt made last night to convict Mr JOHN BRIGHT of breach of privilege had from the sturdy tribune of the people the answer which it merited. It will be remembered that at the banquet given in honour of Lord SPENCER, Mr BRIGHT made allusion to the unjust and severe attacks made upon the honour and reputation of the noble lord. He described the charges as heinous," and accused some of the Irish members and some of their countrymen of having made them, adding that these men were "disloyal to the Crown." In the estimation of most persons the statement made by Mr BRIGHT was not only amply justified by what had taken place, but was even somewhat mild. Mr CALLAN himself, who attacked the right hon. gentleman last night, could not control his own tongue or conceal his own bitterness, but, before sitting down, openly accused Lord SPENCER of having com- mitted murder. Why should these Irishmen be so sensitive about what is said of them- selves so long as they do not scruple to im- pugn the character of Englishmen by hurling at them charges which none but the most brutish of men would commit. Mr JOHN BRIGHT replied in most dignified and manly words, refusing to retract a single statement which he had made. Overwhelming his assailant with unquestion- able evidence of the truth of what he had said at the banquet, and thus more than establishing hi3 case, he remarked that if he :had committed a breach of order by making such observations he was prepared to apologise to that extent, but that he would not and could not with- draw one word of his speech, because it was perfectly true. To accuse Lord SPENCER of having sent to the gallows men whom he knew to be innocent may seem to Mr CALLAN, Mr BIGGAR, and others a very trivial affair, but all the world will not regard such charges in the same light. Mr JOHN BRIGHT is one of the oldest and most faithful friends of Ireland, but friend- ship to Ireland will not induce any English- man to forget what is due to the most honourable and highminded among his own countrymen. Seldom has an assailant been so hopelessly vanquished as Mr CALLAN was last night. m

SOUTH WALES NOTES, I AM very glad to be in a position to an- nounce that a very pleasing step has been taken in regard to Aberdare Hall, the Ladies' Hall in connection with the Uni- versity College of South Wales and Monmouthshire. Miss Williams, a sister of Me Morgan Williams, of Swansea, has promised a scholarship of 220 a year, to be held by Welsh girls at the Aberdare Hall. There are, I understand, no conditions attached by the donor to the scholarship other than that of the nationality of the holder. All other arrangements are to be settled by the Hon. Miss Bruce and those who are interested in the hall. The friends of the institution, of whom I am certainly one, will be very pleased to learn this. I have several times called attention to the conditions of residence, and pointed out that there really is a need for some such aid for the lady scholars as that which this promised scholarship will afford. The gift is undoubtedly a very generous one, and I am extremely pleased to be able to congratulate both Miss W illiams and the authorities of the hall upon the form which it has assumed. It is impos- sible to give too much encouragement to the movement for the higher education of Welsh girls. THE news of the loss of the Cardiff laden ship, the County of Aberdeen, will be received with very great regret There seems, indeed, every reason to think the report of the loss is only too well founded. She sailed from Cardiff at the beginning of December last, with coal, for Bombay, by way of the Cape of Good Hope. The vessel was well found, well manned, and ably commanded, but was la"t heard of on the 18th of February— ove*? -Uro months ago, when she parted company from another vessel, and since then no tidings of her have come to hand. Having taken in her cargo at Cardiff and engaged a large part of her crew there, all the A.B.'fj, with one exception, gave Cardiff as their address. It is not, however, the case that they were all Cardiff men. There has, indeed, been anxiety felt for some time bythe relativesofsuch as were; and thu3 the hardness of the blow, which the published confirmation of their fears will inflict, has been in some degree lessened. The fear as to the loss has arisen from the absence of tidings, but there is hardly room to hope for anything but the worst. I HEAR that things are being pushed for- ward in the matter of the proposed weiring of the Taff at Cardiff. I announced some time since that the promoters had deter- mined to invite a very eminent engineer, Mr Alfred Williams, to give his opinion upon the scheme. I now learn that he arrived in Cardiff on Monday night for the purpose of making a personal survey, in order to thoroughly test and determine the practicability of the scheme. I have no doubt what his opinion will be and it is equally certain that on which- ever side it be given, the verdict will be practically final. His decision will, I believe, be definitely given and announced in the course of two or three days, and the bogies of percolation and damage to sur- rounding property will then be finally slain. When once that is done, definite steps will be taken by the promoters, I hope, to push matters forward and the scheme will soon be in' the course of actual operation. I am sure I hope this will be so there has been enough delay already and more than enough, and I am very hopeful that as soon as the public see the work in actual procri-eas the tendency to scepticism which such long delays breed will be transformed into a pleasurable and lively interest. By the way, what is Mr Harpur doing ? I sincerely trust that at the next meeting of the corporation we shall not hear again that he has been too busy to attend to the subject. I AM glad to notice that the members of the Bristol press have taken sum- mary measures to express their dis- satisfaction at a recent action of the town council. The reporters' desks, which were always insufficient, were moved to a place which rendered the speakers inaudible. The members of the preas expostulated, but as no alteration was made they left the room yesterday, instead of stopping to report the proceedings of the council. This is the best kind of reply to discourtesy, and is the most effectual method of answering those who think anything is good enough for the press. Whatever the accommodation may have formerly been, it cannot have been worse than it is now at Cardiff. There they seem to think that a window seat is quite good enough to sit on, and that neither re- porters nor note-takers have the slightest use for a drop of ink or a pen. I can under- stand this feeling with those who are them- selves not by any means too efficient in using them, but there are several there who C, ought to know better. Even they might draw the line at making anyone sit with his legs dangling on the bench, without sufficient table accommodation, with neither pens nor ink, and with body baked in summer and frozen in winter through the window pane close to his back. The whole thing is simply one continuous insult to the press. I am glad to learn that, thanks to the efforts of Dr. Davies, the Medical Officer of Health, and the prompt precautions taken by the Sanitary Authority, the scare which was recently raised in Swansea by the an- nouncement that there were a great many cases of typhoid fever in the borough, has entirely subsided, and what is better still, there has been no fresh case for some time. I have not yet learnt the cause of the outbreak, though there can be but little doubt that the water had something to do with it, since the first precaution taken was to divert one of the streams which fed the reservoir. Dr. Davies will doubtless satisfy the curiosity of your readers on the question at the next meeting of the council. While the fever existed I learn that 60 cases were treated in the temporary fever hospital, and only two deaths occurred. A CORRESPONDENT has called my attention to the generally unpleasant and unsanitary con- dition of Cadoxton, He says As a ififlident of Oadoxton, I writo to ask through you whether there ia any authority to gee to the sanitary state of this viliage. Unless Something is shortly done to see to the state of the place, we muat expect an outbreak of cholera, or fover, or some epidemic. Through the main road there is now ruiinintr tho drainage of several houses, besides very offensive odours from rubbish heaps, Your calling attention to this will be doinpf a very great kindness to many in this village. This cannot be called a pleasant pietnre of village life. The sweet scents of the country and the malodorous pollutions of an open kennel are most decidedly incongruous. As Mr Anstey says in his new book of another subject, "they harmonise better apart." The last few hot days have been calculated. to get about as much out of a rubbish heap in the way of nasty odour as would satisfy the most epicurean pig but the greater the drawing power of tho sun, the greater the nuisance for those who are not swine. I hope the matter will have attention.

THE CLOSING OF USK PRISON INFLUENTIAL MEETING AT NEWPORT. A large representative gathering of magistrates and county gentlemen was held on Tuesday at the King's Head HoèeJ, under the presidency of the High Sheriff of the county (Mr E. J. Grice), to protest against the closing of Usk Prison and the anticioated removal of the Monmouth Assizes, Mr A. D. Berrington, chairman of Quarter Sessions, explained the attitude of the Home Officf3 authorities on the question, and Colonel Morgan, M.P., moved, and Mr J. Lawrence (Crick) secouded, a resolution that the proposal to close the prison would be very prejudicial to the administration of justice and injurious to the interests of prisoners awaiting their trial. Thit was carried, as was also one moved by General Somer- set, and seconded by Mr Herbert, of Clytha, that if the two assizes now held at Monmouth were superseded by a general gaol delivery at Herefore and Cardiff, or Swansea, the severe in- convenience already experienced in connection with the grouped assizes at Gloucester and Worcester would be greatly increased.—Colonel lleyworth, J.P., thought the county had brought the action of the Government on itself by having the prisons at Usk and the assizes held at Mon- mouth, both of which, as compared with Newport, weie most inconveniently situated. (Hear, hear.) —Mr Berrington said it was the intention of the Government to close the prison and then ask the opinion of the magistrates on an accomplished fact. The county authorities must first fight for the retention of the prison and assizes, and after- wards contest amongst themselvesas to which town should have the honour.—MrE. H.Carbutt, M.P., proposed a resolution to the effect that the high sheriff be requested to forward the two preceding resolutions to the Home Secretary. The bon. member .strongly urged that the county of Mon- mouth should maintain its jurisdiction in civil and criminal matters, and pointed out it seemed strange to him that a county which had pro- gressed so fabt in population and material wealth that a third member had been given to it, should be singled out by the Government for such all attempt, which, he confessed, he could not understand. The town of Usk was centrally situated, and prisoners had therefore to travel the shortest distance. It was probable, if the civil work of the assize was lost, the best solicitors would migrate, and because the best lawyers generally advised their clients to have as little as possible to do with law, this would be a distinct loss to the community. (Hear, hear.)— Mr S. C. Bo^a»cjuet seconded the resolution, which was carried and the proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman for pre- siding. Letters apologizing for absence, and atrongly protesting against the closing of the prison, had been (the chairman stated) received from the Mayor of Newport and several county magis- trates.

EXTRAORDINARl TRAMP BY A LAD. During the meeting of the Westbury-on-Severn Guardians on Tuesday, Mr M. F. Carter, the clerk, mentioned the following interesting story: -On Friday last a lad, 10 years of age, knocked at the porter's door of the house" and begged to be accomniodated with some provision and a night's lodging. He appeared to be weary and footsore, and in answer to inquiries said his name was Taylor, that his home had been in Liverpool, but his father havingrecentlydied, he wasmaking his way to some friends living at Bridgend. He left Birmingham early last week for Gloucester, a distance of 40 miles, but was fortunate enough to get on a boat. At Gloucester, however, he was landed on the wrong side of the river, and having walked to Bristol—40 miles—and being penniless, was compelled to retrace his steps to Gloucester. He then walked to Westbury with a view to making his way to Bridgend, about 70 miles, when he became exhausted. The boy's story was found to be correct, his friends having telegraphed for him to be sent cn.

HORRIBLE CONDUCT OF A FATHER. OUTRAGING A DAUGHTER NEAR TREDEGAR. At the Tredegar police-court, on Tuesday (be- fore the Rev. Raes Jones and Mr J. Colguhoun), William Short, about 40 years of a.ge, was charged with criminally assaulting his daughter, Mary Ann Short, who is nearly 15 years of age. The little girl said her father was a collier living at Waun-y-Llwyd. Her mother had been desd seven months. She kept her father's house. On the 13th April she went to a concert with her father at Newtown, Ebbw Vale. They walked home. Her nephew, Willie Short, about 6 years old, was sent on in front. Her father then took her to the railings and committed the offence. She kept crying Don't, father." She didn't like to tell anyone as she was afraid of him. He had repeated the otfence three times. The last time was Saturday, the 18lh inst. He came home between 11 and 12 o'clock. He sent the boys to bed and then called her to sit on his knee, and repeated the offence. He made her walk upstairs in front of him, and then got on the bed with her. She screamed out Oh, father, you are killing me 1" He tried to repeat the offence on Wednesday last.—Prisoner said that whatever he had done to his daughter had been with her consent as she did not want another woman to come into the house.—Dr. James Sheehy, Victoria; Charles Collis, 15 years of age, nephew of the prisoner; Margaret Short, daughter-in-law; and P.S. Kendall, Ebow_VaIe, having given evidence, prisoner was committed for trial at the next assizes. It was said that the prisoner is the father of 22 children, and for some time preached with the Primitive- Methodists in the neighbourhood of Abertillery. -P.S. Kendall said if the prisoner returned to the place the people would lynch him.

BATHING FATALITIES. MAN DROWNED AT BLAENAVON. A man named Abraham Morgan was drowned in Ball's Pond, Blaenavon, on Monday whilst bathing. Cramp is supposed to have been the cause, as deceased was a good swimmer. He leaves a wife and one child. SAD DROWNING CASE AT HAY. On Monday evening Mr James Jones, tailor and draper, The Pavement, went with two other younK men to bathe in the Wye near the turn of the Warren, when he got out of his depth between some rocks, and was drowned. One of his com- panions, who could swim a little, went to deceased's assistance, but he had to release his hold, or would have shared a similar fate. The body was ultimately recovered by Mr James Soutbgate, junr., in about seven feet of water. Deceased has only recently been married, and much sympathy ia ;elt for his wife and parents. Already this week no less than seven persons have lost their lives when bathing in Irish waters. One of these distressing cases is that of young Dr Thornbury, who was drowned whilst bathing in the river Blackwaterat Fermoy. Ho was the eldest and only surviving son of Mr Win. Thornbury, of Lucan, and of great promise. His untimely death at 23 has thrown his family and friends into the deepest grief.

WELLS CHARITY ESTATE LEASES. TO the editor. Sin,—In these days when land law reform fills the air we would scarcely expect to find landlords im- posing leases with extra conditions and exactions, and least of all when they emanate from those landlords who have been themselves distinguished as land law reformers. You may, therefore, judge my surpriso and disappointment when I lately perused a lease granted by the Welle Charity Commissioners. 1 found this document contained all the old objectionable covenants in full force, of which the lessee 83 much complains. Among other covenants I found it provided that—1. The lessee must not alter his premises, nor give a right of way through it, without the landlord's consent. 2. He must insure the property against fire in an office approved by the landlords. 3. If lie sells his property he must inform his landlord of the fact, and pay him a haif-guinea fee for recording it. 4. It he mortgages his property be must do the same. Now these are the covenants which have worked so much evil in the hands of unscrupulous landlords. Under a covenant similar to -the firit named poor Mr Batchelor was deprived of his property a few years ago, though the alteration he made was evidently a material addition to the value of the security. The second clause also causes great inconvenience, but it is not commonly enforced. In the Wells Charity documents, however, I find this memorandum specially endorsed "The attention of mortgagees is particularly directed to the fire insurance covenant. It is absolutely necessary that this covenant be strictly fulfilled, and no waiver of it can possibly be permitted." I should like to know why. What can it matter to the landlord whether the leasee insures or not ? His only interest in the property is the security of the ground rent. But that is surely quite secure without insurance. Besides, the lessees or the mortgagees may be safely left to look after their own more substantial interest in the risk. Can it be worth the while of the com- missioners, for the sake of the paltry profit of an insurance agent, to put their lessees to such inconvenience ? As to the third covenant named above, it may, no doubt, be convenient that a landlord should be informed when the lessee sells but I deny that he has auy right to make him pay a fee for supplying the information. But the most iniquitous covenant is the last, which provides that the lessee must, if be has borrowed money on the security of the property, disclose the fact on pain of ejectment; and more than that, be must pay a fee of 10s 6d for record- ing the fact I This is adding injury to insult. It is surely exquisitely provoking to be maae to pay half a guinea for recording the fact that one is in an impecunious oondition. We may well ask by what right does the landlord pry into the affairs of his tenant. We Liberals used to suspect that the information was required tor electioneering purposes. But that cannot be the case there, because I see Mr Sanders, who used to entertain that suspicion, is one of the signators 1 At any rate, as the information is onlj required to satisfy the landlord's curiosity, the least he could do would be to pay his own officials for supplying the information. If any additional argument were required to prove the urgent necessity of land law reform, it would be the tact that such a document as this emanates from some of our most respected and distinguished local reformers. I wish they could hear the complaints to which I, as secretary of a building society, am obliged to listen. My life is positively made unhappy by the endless complaints of lessees. To give an instance. A short time ago the following circum- stances came under my notice ;—A poor builder had mortgaged four bits of property, and had afterwards sold them. He had to pay (in addi- tion to the usual legal charges) four gui neas merely for apprising his landlord of these transactions I offered to take up the cudgels on his behalf. But no I He was afraid of offending his landlord and his lawyers 1 So he bears his wrongs in silence. But no doubt he is nursing his wrath to keep it warm," and he will vote fcr land law reform at the next election, unless, indeed, the facts disclosed in this letter shake his faith in the Liberal party. I am glad to hear, however, that the Marquis of Bute has abolished these vexatious half-guiuea charges. We owe this concession, no doubt, to F. J^LQes Andrew Corbett, the uewly-appoiuted solicitor to the Bute estate. I trust Mr Corbett will make an effort to restore the paternal management which prevailed when Mr. Priest Richards was in power. The tone of the profes- sion in Cardiff has distinctly been lowered since the good old days of the late Mr. Dalton and Mr. Richards. Trusting this letter may awaken attention in the proper quarter, I am, &c.. PETER PRICE-

LOSS OF A CARDIFF-LADEN SHIP. 18 CARDIFF MEN DROWNED. LIST OF THE CREW. There is every reason to believe that the fine iron ship County of Aberdeen, owned by Messrs R. and J. Craig, of Glasgow, has beau totally lost. She was last spoken by the Enseuiero, on February ISlIi, S.E. of the Cape of Good Hope. The Eusemere was a day in company of the County of Aberdeen, which then hauled away to the north. She was built by Messrs Barclay, Curie, & Co., Whiteinch, in 1879, four-masted rig, and measured 1,865 tons net register. She sailed from Cardiff on 2nd December of last year for Bombay, with a cargo of coals, under the command of Captain Andrew Miller, with a crew ot thirty hands all told. Captain Miller was one of the oldest, ablest, and most reliable masters in the service, having been appointed t.) the iron ship County of Argyle in June, 1869, just 16 years ago. rom the Argyle he was transferred to the County of Elgin composite ship, and was next entrusted with the command of the County of Peebles, the firm's first fourmasted ship. He took com- mand of the sacoiid fourmasted ship County of Caithness, which ship he sailed to the East for eight voyages and without mishap. Towards the end of last year he was asked to command the County of Aberdeen, and accepted, carrying with him to his new appointment the chief and second officers, carpenter, cook, steward, and bo'"iu from his former ship. On 26th December a sister ship, County of Inverness, which sailed from Cardiff with a similar cargo on the same day was in com- pany with the County of Aberdeen, in lat. 43 19 N, and long. 14 43 YV, and on 27tli December iu lat. 40 19 N, long. 17 5 W, all welf. On this day'' the ships parted, and since then no tidings of the missing ship or crew have reached her owners.

EVENTFUL VOYAGE OF A SHIP FROM CARDIFF. A MUTINOUS CREW. .At. West Ha.mjpC'lice-court"on Monday 13 seamen of the sailing ship Cape Horn were charged with combining to disobey the lawful commands of Captain Lawrie, the master of the vessel, while on a voyage from Cardiff to Zanzibar.—Mr Young appeared for the prosecution Mr S. C. Hadley defended. Captain Lawrie said that all the prisoners, except two, were able seamen, and they signed articies at Cardiff for a voyage to Zanzibar and elsewhere. On Oct. 2 one of the prisoners, uamed Abora, was told by the chief mate to do certain work, but he tefused. Witness called Abora, and asked what reason he had for declining work. He had gone to the forecastle and incited the other men on the watch to follow him, and when he was spoken to he was very insolent and defiant. Another watch was then- put on deck. On January 7 the Cap Horn wait at anchor off i-dam Island, and orders were given to heave anchor, and get the shin under- wejh. The crew refused, and said they would not do any work till six o clock, and as the work was imperative witness sent the apprentices a.nd the ufficeris to do it. This Wa3 at four o'clock, and at six' witness summoned the men, but they sent word back that the captain would have to go forward to them. At last they went to Captain Lawrie, and when asked why they would not work became abusive, and said they wanted to see the consul. Witness then reminded thim they had been ashore two days, and -,hey could have seen the COllsul en, but they were told- they could see the consul at the next port. They were asked to turn to," but they refused, and, as a consequence, witness had to go ashore and engage fourteen other men, IVI)icli he did on the advice of the consul. Whei. he returned with the new men, he found that be brake of the windlass had been removed, nd the ship was thereby endangered, as the cable could not be paid out nroperly. With the assistance of this crew the ship was navigated to Sour a bay a at a cost of £ 79. At Sourabaya each of the men were asked separately to turn to," and they all returned to their duty. On Juifo 8, Thomas Pettersen caused a great trouble. Ho fought with another IIUWJ, and impeded t-be of the ship. He was confined in a room, and when the captain went to him he flourished a sheath • knife in a threatening way And rushed at him, but the weapon was takoa fjcom the accused with dltficulf. t4 captain cij^iqg lps hand in getting the knife. Cross-exauiiwtd Captain Lawrie said the men j f j?! wanted to see tiiecoubul. and he did not he^r tfaat they 4§clined U> s;iil \i\ the vessel as they suspected the vessel was 'n seaworthy, because it had struck on a reef. The ship had struck on a reef, and was aground for. eight hours. The surveyor of Lloyd's Regjator" had examined her, and certified that uo dajn»(,'o had been done, but he (witness) did not reswl that certificate out to the seamen. One of the men named' Rawlialsop then made II statement, but confined himself to contradicting what the captain had said. Mr Phillips said that the misconduct alleged against the prisoners had been clearly made out, 5"' L ^-iey kad been gm-lty of contnuu<! disobedience to lawful orders on the high seas. The men were liable to bo 6CUt to prison for twelve weeks, and in *t"jia l dis- cretion of the magistrate could be fined six days' pay for every 24 hours they continued to disobey commands. Abora aud Thomas Pettersen liaci been guilty of aggravating conduct, and they V,?? t0 I8^1 lfor sbc weeks, and also pay £ o Is od eacli to the owners. The other prisoners must also pay 26 1& 6d each and costs.

ATTEMPTEFSUICTDIIJ AT CARDIFF. At the police-court on Tuesday Elizabeth Ruegali (24) was charged with attempting to connate Buicide by jumping in the Glamorgan Canal on Monday. A young man named Alfred Pri/ue said lie was passing over the Hayes Bridge about ten minutes past eleven on Monday night. He saw the prisoner go down on tho bank of the callal, throw down her hat and umbrella, and then jump into the water. He got over the railings of the bridge, jumped into the water, and pulled her out. There were only about three feet of water mn j i?a where she jumped in. When he pulled her out she complained, but said nothing, Superintendent Price said that when searched at the police-station a letter was found on her. It was addressed to her sister. The letter waa written in penal, and was as follows "Darling Sisterlam now goia to farwellto all X know I am very tired of my life with them I Jivtf with at Cardiff. I am not happy all those I say so. I am goiu to the wattery grave so now I say farwell to all from your loving Sister E- A.. Russell." In reply to the bench the prisoner said that she was in driuk at the time, ana was now very sorry for what she had done. She was remanded for a. week to enable the police to mako inquiries respecting her. Superintendent Price said that she was living an immoral life.

REDEMPTION" AT THE CARDIFF THEATRE. On Monday night a realistic drama by Mr Thomas Sennett, entitled Redemption,* wait played for the first time to a Cardiff audience. The plot is too intricate to allow even an outline to be compressed in our narrow limits. Its oasis generally, however, are the many trials of a well- night immaculate hero, the unlasting triumphs of gentlemanly scoundrelism with connecting incidents which nxake up a really powerful and effective. play. Of the acting we may speak in general praise. As Ralph Stephenson, the Canadian, Mr Thomas Sennett is furnished with a syttipathetio part, which he plays with force, yet with a marked absence of rant. Mr Frank Woodville in Langton Section takes a somewhat improbable character with much discrimination. The Mary Seaton of Miss Blanche Sennett was a most happy imper- sonation. It was graceful and sweet, with a certain naivete quite charming, and pleased the audienpe greatly. The play is well-staged, aud of a character to deserve the considerable support it will doubtless get.
