The qtwrries were going on well, and in every way flourishing, and yet 1,, could not find that pauperism was decr.Hising ??s it ought to, which I)rovw. that thev wore gjv:n relief to unrvin CiEe8. There were 25 in-door paupers,; but that number &d not consist of those ,-toid,? t?e Union, and ther, were 825 out-door paupHS, Th?secain-? to three per cent, on the popuhÜion, bZt i* jns?',?ce to tle Union he wished to S)- that he made 'lis calculation on the lasi census, and he undAvt-ood there was a. great increase in the population, especially at Festiniog, so that the percentage- ho gave was rather high. There were 2.3 throughout tho kingdom, uud: in tihe 53 Unions he had to visit. 3.1. This was a rather high percentage, considering that thcce Unions were rural Unions, where labour for both Xt!< could be easily obtained. Referring to the collection of rates. Mr Bircham aid that nil rates were col- kcted as poor rates, wheieas only a small portion of them went for the. maintenance of the poor. In this Union he found that £24,000 were collected as poor rate, whereas only 1-09300 were spent on the poor, comprising the maintenance cf workhou«e, officers, etc. As for the remainder of the 224,000 t'hv had- no control whatever over it, but it iva-i a consolation to tliem that they we:e tpen-; on objects which remunerated the Uaioji..In tnU £ 24,000 Ire found tho €!«>rnKius cm ox £ 3000 w;e(' cd to the School Boards, but- the U'1,:cii go. a rttsro by way of better education.

Mr R. Davies proposed that the minutes be adopted with tho exception of that portico re- lating to the station. This was carried, and the minutes were then adopted. On the motion of Mr J. B.

With) regard to the Pwllheli Union there was not much alteration ill the. state of pauperism, but there was a little, and that in the right (tirT rection-(hear, hear)—but the relief given was very large, and he was not prepared to say there was a roval road to CUI": it. He wished the Guardians would support, the chairnv.11 of ,he Iifferert Boards in refusing cases whit- were not dserving. There were many per- sons receiving relief, who were not fit to look,, after themselves, and left to the mercy of at least ignorant as regarded nursing. He hoped the Guarc/Uaia-trnuld- lestrlct giving relief to people who lived in- houses not fit for occupation. He should like to » a trained nurse .:U1 an assistant matron appointed,, hut they would) have to wait until the number of inmates had increased.

The Duke, who became the hue- bond of the Prineees Mary of Cambridlge socae thirty-four years ago, was one of the present Wurtemburg fa- mily, but traced his descent for more than a thousand years through the Dukes of Hun- gary.

That ho has enriched the reaktt of art by his eloquent cirticisms, and given the ainstic temperament of his countrymen an im- petus for good goos without saying. His was » really gentle nature, oonceale-d under a rugged exterior that was at times repelling. To women he often seemed ungaiknt when it was mere mannerism. Indeed there was little to choose in tllese soinA.1 aspects between Oarlyle and Buskin, although the latter was perhaps more popular among those with whom he was brought intor contact.

Mr Ruskin's placid home at Conis- ton was rarely intruded upon by tourists. His objection to that form of worship was rooted and natural, and a i most as great as his aversion to the sight of a railway destroying the harmonies of his beloved • Westmoreland landscape. Mr Ruskin was not happy in his marriage, which resulted in a divorce, and re-marriage of his wife with the late Sir John Millais. Here is a striking case of how Ruskin's rough exterior melted into sweetness. He was passing through the National Gallery one student's day and noticed a young lady, quite a neophyte, who had started to copy a Turner. "Trying to get to heaven without stopping at the intervening stations," he remark- ed, bluntly, leaving the girl so rudely addressed in teais. Coming back a moment or two later he saw her wiping her eyes, and said-, "My deuo young lady go -c.n with your work it is remark- able how yen have caught the grmt. man's style. Tell me, rve you poor or rich?" "I am doing this, sir, because I have been told I have a taste for it. and I thought I might help to support my mother ar<d a crippled brother through it." Rus- kin touched up the picture here and there, pro- Ii :}111lce,1 it an excellent copy, and eventually sold it for £50 for the, young novice. Wars of recent years have proved very fatal among the ra-rtk-s of newspaper correspondent*, who seem, tc court danger more freely than was the case in the old d'ys. When Mr H.
