CORRESPONDENCE. THE NANTYMOEL-ROW ROW—CRITICS CRITICISED. TO TH3 EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR,—Your Nantymoel correspondent being at present my client, I think it i;my duty to pick up the glove thrown at him. Fairplay (not Chwareu Teg-) demands it. As for the drunkenness of Nan ty mod-row, it is a well-known fact that Bacchus is in great demand in that ancient locality. Unfortunately, however (as justly stated by your correspondent), there are respectable people there also. In all common-sense, the remarks of your correspondent were never intended for them, and I think they ought to feel grateful for your cor- respondent's efforts to convert the drunkards," thereby endeavouring to pick out the weeds from among the fragrant flowers. The consciences of these respectable people were probably never pricked by the deserved remarks. Now those who have seemingly been rutrled have bean so for one of two causes. If the cap did not fit them, then they must have thought that brilliant renown was obtainable fcy seeking" a newspaper controversy. One of these, glorying in the misnomer Chwareu Teg," has suddenly sprung from obscurity to "advise." Now. my man (?), please bear in mind that advice is quite useless, fools won't have it the wise do not need it," and yet you foolishly advise one of the latter. A close scrutiny of the two effusions will show that six wrote one and II half-a-dozen" the other, or at least they were fully aware of each other s movements. Compare this sentence of Inhabitant's "—"Your correspondent confines himself to this street (i.e., Nantymoel-row) alone" to "Chn-areu Tegs.' 11 Your correspyndent seems to confine himself to Nantymoel-row alone." Again compare the fol- lowing—" We are not blind to the fact the Nanty- moel-row has a dirty appearance, but I hope that occupiers are not judged by outside aspect; the other has. "It is true that the appearance of Nantymoel-row is uninviting and undoubtedly for that fact your correspondent seems to think the inhabitants are ditto." The|*e are more phrases that could be similarly treated, but I think that the above two will suffice to prove the close alliance of the writers. It would be rank nonsense to name the respectable people, because that would surely create genuine illfeeling, and justly PlO. Perhaps some more enlightened reader will kindly inform me of the functions of a missionary. I happen to be aware that it is not to convert drunkards. I have shown the similarity of the two notes, but there is one difference, which is this, one writer addressed the editor as" Dear sir," the other, Sir." I must admit that I began to ponder whether my previous suspcions were really correct. Suddenly it struck me that humans of the female persuasion were addictel to the amorous adjective prefixed to sir," so my conclusions were that a female must have written the one, and one of the sterner sex the other pardon me if I am wrong. Excuse mp, Mr. Editor, for trespassing on valu- able space in censuring insignificant effueions. Trusting that you will insert, and thanking yon in anticipation,—Yours. kc., CUPID. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES flTÁR. Sm,80mc time back, actuated by feelings of Fair-play," I levelled my lance at your Xanty- moel correspondent for reasons then stated. Hie reply, which showed he was a thorough gentleman, had the effect ,.f making me. in a way, repent of my impetuosity. I wish, Mr. Editor, with your permission, to make an observation in reference to the remarks made by your correspondent in his notes regarding Xantymoel-row. I may venture to state that his remarks are to all ap- pearance truthful, although some persons, In- habitant and Chwareu Teg especially, think that they are not just. If I may take the liberty, I wish to give a bit of advice first, to the afore- mentioned persons. "Mind your p' and secondly, to your correspondent, Goon de- nouncing such degrading habits. J^RRITE NANTYMOEL-ROW OX A SUNDAY HORNING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR.—I am fully aware of the fact that your correspondent is highly capable to reply to the milk-and-water criticisms of "An Inhabitant and Chwareu Teg." It is plainly evident, with- out being a Mahatma. that an Inhabitant and Chwareu Teg" are one and the same in- dividual, or thev have endeavoured to combine their intellectual faculties, believing in the old adage that two heads are better than one if only two sheeps' head." I know not, neither care I to know, which of the two is the original produc- tion of their combine efforts, but I may say, with- out fair or contradiction, that one is a paraphrase of the other. Both of your correspondent s critics confirm the imbibinc- propensities of their en- lightened row." Neither of your critics wish to poee as the upholders of drunkenness, bufeU mutt confess, and I believe all fair-minded persons will agorae with me. that there can't be two stronger advocates of idolised Bacchus. I am positively certain that your correspondent would as 7 report similar proceedings in any other of the streets in Xantvmoel. I would advise • An In- habitant" and -Chwareu Teg "to commence, to preach temperance, not forgetting to begin a Jerusalem (Xantymoel-row). thanking you in anticipation,—I am, kc., XAXTYMOELIAN. PONTYCYMMER EISTEDDFOD. TO THB EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR,—In the report of the above eisteddfod the following paragraph appeared Gwyrosy stated that the merit was in no wise exceptional; some of them, indeed, heing very commonplace Now, Sir. that ambiguous sentence might have led the reader to rake it as referring to the prize verges which would be incorrect. G-wyrosydd, richtlv or wrongly, paid a high compliment to the best, and stated tjiat the verses were far from being oommonplac^i—■-I am, &c., D i v 6 FAIR-PL A.Y. THE PAINTERS' STRIKE AT BARRY. TO THB EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAB. gIE in reading the different accounts of the present dispute between the master painters and their workmen, one is struck by the small question at issue. One would have thought that, had a little jndgment been used by the offending party, which ever side it may be, this humbug and bother might have been avoided. Take the question of working by artificial light. Now as I have an opportunity of seeing the li- ferent building trades at work, I am inclined to think that, considering the class of work that is mostly done in Barry and district, the painter is in a better position to work by candlelight than any of the other trades. As a rule, the buildings are mostly closed in before the painters have to do the most particular part of their work, and as a painter is generally in a position to rest his paint-pot somewhere handy, he is at liberty to hold his light in his free hand; while most other trades who are working now the disputed half horn- by candlelight .require both their hands for working with.. There is another thing that struck me in the matter. The employers urge that, by allowing T,he men to work after dusk they will be robbing themselves and their customers. Xow I am sure that the majority of the inhabitants of Barry and Cadoxton, who require work to be done by painters, will be glad to find that their interests are and will be considered. I take it that we shall see the end of scamping work in this district. No more two coats f or three no more zinc white, whiting, or barytes for genuine whitelead no more mineral oil for turpentine no more boiled oil for rarmsh no, not even a coat of size for one of paint. Kow, if this takes place, it will be worth, to the people of Barry and district, all this bother and turmoil. I know good work is and can be done in the dis- trict but how much scamping, how much dodg- vIng! is done in this district, by all the building trades alike, can only be seen by those who move about among it. and have had a fair experience of the building trades. Hoping soon to see an amiable settlement 01 this dispute, I remain, yours, &c., 1 OBSERVER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. you have freely opened your columns to the workmen in this matter, will you kindly allow one of the other side a word or two on it A great deal is attempted to be made from the fact that the employers had set a certain set of rules and are now repudiating them. This, on the face of it. appears to be unfair on our part, but it must be borne in mind that we were never consulted until the rules had been framed, and then presented to us for signature at the very opening of the season, when it was a case of needs must when the devil drives." Again, the men right through the summer insist upon work- ing overtime, and this I submit, is an entire sub- version of all Trade Union principles, as every five men working two hours a day overtime keep one man altogether out of employment. But a refer- ence to our "time sheets" proves that our men have worked since March 1st last an average of 59 hours per week, holidays and lost time included, and this, we are informed, fairly represents the case of other employers in the district. But while the men on their part stand out for over- time in the summer, they are not willing to lose one hour a day when days are short and trade certainly not busy. I have been asked, Why put painters on different time to any other branch of the building trade ?" The reply is that pamt. in0- is never as busy in the winter as in summer, and I venture to assert that no branch of the building trade can show a greater (if as great) average of hours as the painters work, for it is a well-known fact that no other branch so systemati- cally work overtime. It seems to me that the Barry painters are very selfish, inasmuch as they claim all the advantages that may be obtained m the summer, but are not willing to share the dis- advantages that necessarily accompany the winter season. The men complain of Mr. Banesis mter- ference in the dispute as an outsider. Why, then, do thev import the aid of Mr. Gibbs, of London, when the matter is purely one of a local nature That they are ill-advised in striking goes without saying, for at this time of year labour is aormjiant, —I am. &c., r.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES ST AH. gIR \Vill you kindly allow me a small space in your paper this week on behalf of our poorer brothers and sisters residing in Cadoxton, for whom we wish to provide a tea and pleasant entertain- ment on New Year's Eve. This has been done during the past two years, and we wish to make it an annual custom. The smallest contribution will be welcome and will be gratefully acknow- • ledo-ed. Let us remember who it was that said "When thou makest a feast call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind," I do hope that this appeal will not be made in vain.

TO THJB EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. gIR I read a "Constant Reader's "letter with great interest. I do not. however, live near enough Penmark to know anything about the new vicar. Whatever may be the facts in Penmark, proselytism is a burning question in Wales. We must, how- ever. be fair all round. Some time ago I read in the Smith Wales Star nn account of a meeting at Barry held for the •' Evangelisation of Spam A certain person with a Spanish name abused the national church of his native land, and asked as I understand, for funds to proselytise the children of Spain from the faith of their fathers. There was not one word of protest offered on the part of any Nonconformist present, but the proposal wa greeted with plaudits of applause, and yet what is sau«e for the Spanish goose is sauce also for the Welsh gander. Now. last week the English Church Union held a meeting, and declared that the bishops in Spain are the lawful rulers of the church, and that though some of their beliefs and practices may not agree with ours they are still Catholic, and we have no right to seduce the flocks from their spiritual superiors. The Vicar of Penmark, if he be a proselytiscr, probably thinks that the sacramental system of the Nonconformist is heretical, as his Nonconformist parishioners think the worship of the Spaniards to be idolatrous. Really, my dear Editor, on this point we need the oovicc of your clear head and impartial pen, and a few words in your next week's issue would-be welcomed. Speaking as a Churchman and a Nationalist, I can only say I deplore proselytism alike in Spain and Wales. Let those who differ with churches approach the heads cf the churches as representatives of a compact body. and not seduce away the individual members of the fold. I am a Churchman myself, and in doctrine a High Churchman; but can never forget the text, Other sheep I have which are not of this fold." I also remember that a canon of the Convocation of Canterbury has declared the Presbyterian Church of Sootland to be holy and Catholic and, as every other Welsh patriot, I must admit the great services that Methodism has rendered to Wales. To those who in politics still stand by the grand old cause for which St. David and Giraldus Cambrensie lived and died, no honest Welsh Catholic Churchman can entertain feelings either of hatred or contempt. I fear, however, that the evil will never be remedied until Christians of all Churches condemn proselytism. I, sir, like to see crosses on the altar of my church—I think also that the Baptist view of infant baptism is unscriptural. And while I claim for the laity a larger share in church govern- ment, the Independent system of ecclesiastical organisation is to me systematised anarchy. On the other hand, I hate Ultramontanism and Papal tyranny as much as any Dissenter; so that Inde- pendents may fairly loathe me as an idolator, and Romanists excommunicate me as a schismatic. I admit their right to do this, and a.lso I crave the charity of their prayers for my conversion I my- self being equally ready to return the service and to exercise the right. But common-sense ought to come in and prevent U8 trying to proselytise each other, for the excellent reason that the attempt will certainly make things worse than they were before. But deal not vengeance for the deed, And deal not for the crime The body to its place, a.nd the soul to Heaven's grace, And the rest in God's own time. —Yours &c.. ANOTHER CONSTANT READER. 15th Dec.. 1891.
PENCOED NOTES.
PENCOED NOTES. LBy ROVEEJ THE RECEST STORMS. Storma have been the order of the day in this neighbourhood of late. Ricks have been blown and torn, chimney pots blown hither and thither. a.nd several outhouses and some houses made roofless. It is to be sincerelv hoped that storms and rains will give way to healthy and cheerful frost this side of Christmas. All say that Christ- mas is coming upon us this year nnawares to us and no doubt it is so, for the simple reason that we have not yet had any of the weather that usnally characterises the festive season. We are so accustomed to Old Father Christinas' clothes in white, and adorned with sparkling jewels of ice, that we cannot realise him visiting us in any other garb. NO EESPECTOR OF PERSONS. We had a striking illustration at Penprisk the other day that storms are no respecters of persons. The wind was blowing a regular hurricane, and a local tradesman saw that one of his buildings was in momentary danger of being unroofed. °He of course hastened to avert the catastrophe, and it did not take him long to procure some iron stays. and having procured them he sought assistance in the person of a local and highly-esteemed bard and preacher, who with characteristic readiness volunteered to mount the roof to put the iron girders on. Now, one would have thought that the storm would have spared a bard, without tak- ing the preacher into reckoning; but no, gentle reader, no such thing No sooner had the bard- preacher mounted the roof than the storm mus- tered all its strength, and, with one mighty puff, blew roof, bard, and all bodily into an adjoining field. Happily no bones were broken the bard, however, sustained such a severe shaking as ren- dered it necessary for him to stay in bed daily till nine instead of eight o'clock. As soon as my friend thoroughly recovers he is going to compose a special nwdl (ode) and an extra special sermon on the Spirit of the storm that blew off Mr. D.'s roof at Penprisk." A LOVE LETTER. Love letters are all the rage just now at Pencoed. and the following one out of many that have passed through our post-office lately. I give it as it was given to me (orthography and all), and only ask the reader's sympathy for the unfortunate writer— The Trough of Despair, near Pencoed, Dec. 11th, 1891,—My Dearest I cannot dispel the pain I feel in my heart this moment at the thought of loosing you. You know how much I love you, how much I wish you to be mine, and you can guess what the effect the idea of loosing you has upon me. I suffer so much by the fear of loosing you that I scarcely know what" I write. My eyes are blinded by tears for fear of loosing you. I see nothing but you, so much am I afraid of loosing you. I can't bear the thought of loosing you, no indeed to goodness. I would a hundred times rather perish than loosing you. Life would not be worth living after losoingyou. You know I adore and worship you. Look I shall not sleep to-night for fear of loosing you. I will, therefore, bring this letter, though I have stamped the envelope, and for fear of loosing you, I will remain standing at your door for the answer. I love those walls within which you are. I poke my head out of the train when I pass to look at your house, and open my mouth wide to try to swallow as much as possible of the dear smoke that comes out of your lovely chimney. I feel very ill, but will be much worse after loosing you. Oh indeed, do not let me loose you. Here's a couple of kisses for you, love. Good night.— Your ever affectionate and true lover. <•»
.BRIDGEND PETTY SESSIONS.
BRIDGEND PETTY SESSIONS. SATURDAY.—Before Mr. R. W. Llewellon (chair- man), Rev. C. R. Knight, Messrs. C. P. Da.vis. R. L. Knight, and Major D. R. David. DOG LICENSE OFFENCES. — Howell Roberts, collier, Pantygroes, Blackmill, was charged with keeping a dog without a licence.—Police-constable Evan Evans gave evidence, and a fine of 5s. was imposed.—D. Griffiths of the same place, was also fined 10s. for a like offence. ADJOURNED TKESPASS CASE.—John Milward, collier, Maesteg. again appeared to proceed with his case in defence of the charge brought against him, and partly heard the previeus Saturday, of having trespassed in pursuit of game at Llan- gynwyd. The defence was an alibi, and a witness had been examined the previous Saturday in sup- port of this contention.—Sergeant Hill added, that it was quite possible for defendant to go to where he was alleged to have been seen in about ten minutes.—Thos. Bevan, defendant's witness, said he saw him standing alone near the Victoria Hotel. It was about 4.30, he knew this because he passed the Town-hall clock at 4.20. He was no friend of defendant's.—Sergeant Hill Baid he fixed the time by the time that he left the police- station. It was then 20 minutes to four.—A fine of £ 2 was inflicted. KEEPING A CARRIAGE WITHOUT A LICENCE.— Charles Williams, house decorator, of Ponty- cymmer, was charged by Mr. J. C. Johnson, officer of Inland Revenue, with keeping a carriage with- out possessing a licence for same under the Act. Mr. Harold, Bridgend, appeared for the prosecution. It was understood that defendant had promised to get a licence.—Frederick George Long, another officer, said he saw the defendant and his wife driving in the trap, which was not inscribed. He had given defendant several opportunities, but it had not yet been taken out. Several promises had been made to do so.—A fine of £3 inclusive of costs. ARREARS OF MAINTENANCE.—An order was made upon Patsy Donovan, a labourer, at Maesteg, to pay arrears of maintenance to his mother to the amount of £3 10s. 6d. due to the guardians of the Bridgend and Cowbridgc Union.
YSTRAD POLICE COURT.
YSTRAD POLICE COURT. MONDAY.—Before the Stipendiary, Messrs. T. P. Jenkin, D. W. Dtvies, and Alderman W. Morgan. POISONING FOWLS. — Charlotte Jacobson, of Treorky, was summoned for laying a quantity of poison in the garden of Frederick Major, with the intention to kill his fowls.—Evidence was brought to prove that the defendant had several times threatened to kill these fowls, and Police-sergeant Brown said that when charged with the offence the defendant denied having poisoned the fowls. but expressed a desire to kill that b- lfrs: Major."—Dr. James thought that the stuff found in the garden was sulphate of iron, and woald have killed the fowls.—The magistrates were of opinion that there was not sufficient evidence to prove that the defendant had laid the poison, although the circumstances were very suspicious, and consequently they dismissed the charge. A FILTHY LODGER.—George M'Gree, a very witty native of the Emerald Isle, was charged by Eliza Fitzgibbon, of Gelli, with assaulting her by throwing from his bedroom window a quantity of slops which nearly blinded her on Sunday week last. It appeared that the defendant lodged with the brother of the complainant who also rented apartments from him. and on the day in question he was drunk, and on going to his bedroom found that the slop vessel was very full. He, therefore, threw the contents out of his bedroom window in order to save the labour of his landlady."—A little girl named Margaret Ann Baker said that she saw the defendant deliberately throw the stuff over Mrs. Fitzgibbon, but George Hodge, a brother of the complainant, said that the defendant was too intoxicated to know what he was doing, and had expressed deep regret at what had been done. He had also offered to pay for any inconvenience he might have caused.—The case was dismissed. A SILLY YOUTH.—Isaac Price charged George Parfitt with assaulting him at Clydach Vale on the previous Saturday night week. The parties met in a hotel and a quarrel ensued, the result of which was that Parfitt struck Price in the face and tore his clothes. He came up to the com- plainant on the following Saturday and offered to fight him for any amount between 10s. and £ 10. —Defendant did not appear, and a warrant for his apprehension was issued. A RIOT AT CLYDACH VALE.—Police-constable Badger charged Walter and Benjamin Goodwin with fighting and creating a row at the Clydach Vale Hotel on the 13th of November. One of the defendants had taken off his coat and wanted to fight with several present. He was using the most violent and abusive language, and had to be handcuffed. The brother, Benjamin, complained that he had been kicked by some one, and wanted to retaliate.—Walter was fined 15s. and Benjamin 10s. WICKED BOYS AT PENYGRAIG.—Two boys, named Evan Griffiths and George Thomas, resid- ing at Penygraig, were charged with wilfully damaging the house of an old lady named Eliza- beth Edwards, The old woman, it appears, was constantly annoyed by boys, who threw stones at the zinc house in which she resided. The damage amounted to 3s. 3d.—Police-constable Tarr said he saw the boys commit the deed, and gave chase. He caught one of the boys, who blamed the other. —They were each fined 2s. 6d. STEALING A DEAD DUCK AT TREHERBERT.— Eliza Griffiths was charged by Margaret Michael, a greengrocer and poulterer, of Treorky, with stealing a duck from her shop on the previous Friday ni grit.—The complainant swore that she saw the defendant loitering about her shop, and asked the prices of several things, and when she missed the duck her suspicions naturally fell on defendant.—Sergeant Brown said that he visited the defendant's house on Sunday morning, and found the duck cooking in the oven. He asked her where she obtained it. and she told him she had bought it at Treorky.—The defendant now pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to a month's imprison- ment with hard labour. WOUNDING A BROTHEE-IN-LAW.—John Grif- fiths was charged with wounding his brother-in- law, Henry Harris, Hopkinstown, on Saturday last. It appears that a quarrel arose about the defendant's step-children, and defendant took hold of a large knife and threatened his wife, when the prosecutor thought it his duty to interfere. Defen- dant then got into a rage, took hold of a candle- stick, and struck him on the forehead. Prosecutor then fell down insensible, and bled freely from a wound in the forehead.—Police-constable Mallett said he arrested the defendant, who was a violent man, on Saturday night. Griffiths was most abusive when intoxicated, and treated his wife in a shameful manner.—He was fined £2, or in default a month's imprisonment. ALLEGED THEFT OF A WATCH.—John Parry and Thomas Edwards were broughe up in custody charged with stealing a watch and chain, value 19s., from one Isaac Barnes, at Pandy, on Saturday night last. The prosecutor met Parry in Pandy- square, and invited him to come and have a drink. They went together to several publichouses, and at one of these the prosecutor said he fell asleep. When he awoke he missed his watch.—Parry's version of the affair was entirely different, and he stated that Barnes asked him to pawn the watch for him in order that they might obtain money to leave the district. He lost the prosecutor at Porth, and handed over the watch to Edwards, who pledged it for 3s. l^d.—No corroborative evidence 2 being forthcoming, the Bench opined that the prosecutor must have been drunk at the time and made an agreement with Parry. They dismissed the charge against the two defendants.
ALLEGED FALSE 3 PRETENCES…
ALLEGED FALSE 3 PRETENCES AT ABERKENFIG. A VICTIM OF DRINK COMMITTED FOR, TRIAL. An old man named Edward Limbart, labourer, who had until recently been in the employ of the Rev. James Jones, chaplain of the Glamorgan County Asylum at Rhyd, was placed in the dock of the Bridgend Police-court on Saturday, charged with having obtained, by falsely representing the name of that gentleman, a bottle of brandy and another of whisky, value 9s., from Mrs. Thomas, landlady of the Golden Lion Inn, Aberkenfig. The evidence of Mrs. Thomas was read to the effect that defendant came to her house on the previous Friday, and said he wanted half a dozen large bottles of stout and a bottle of Scotch whiskey for the Rev. James Jones. Witness knew him as having been in the service of Mr. Jones, and handed it him, prisoner putting them in a basket. On the following day (Saturday) he came again, bringing the empty bottles, and required another half-dozen bottles of stout and a bottle of brandy, to be charged to the Rev. James Jones. Witness gave them him, and he came again for more, but witness refused him.-The Rev. Jas. Jones said he had not seen the prisoner since the previous Wednesday week, when he left his service. He had not given him orders to procure any of these articles. Prisoner had always appeared honest while in his service. — Police-constable Button said he arrested prisoner on the previous Monday morning, about nine o'clock, at the Star Inn, Aberkenfig. On being charged with the offence prisoner said I had the spirits and drank them. Prisoner was next proceeded with on a charge of obtaining a leg of mutton from the shop of Mr. Thomas Jones, butcher, Aberkenfig, under a similar pretence.—Sarah Ann Jones deposed that on the 5th December the defendant came to the shop, and said he required a leg of mutton for Mr. Jones. She served him with it, and gave him the ticket as usual, which was now produced.—The Rev. James Jones said he did not give defendant instructions to get the mutton.—Police-constable Button said prisoner, in answer to the charge, said, I had the mutton, and had it cooked on Saturday what I couldn't eat I gave to my friends." Prisoner, who displayed signs of emotion, said he was very sorry. It was the first time he had done anything of the kind in his life, and no per- son could ever give him a dishonest character previously. The Bench committed him to take his trial at the next Quarter Sessions.

Cyn yreeled y brycheuyn yn llyyad dy frawd, tyn all-an yn gyntaf y truiest o'th lyyad dy hun." Robin.—Yr wyt yn credu na allaf fi ddweyd yr un gair 'nol wrthyt os deui ag adnod o'r Beibl yn fy erbyn. Ond 'rwyf yn cofio fy mod yn darllen yn rhywle pan yn grwt adnod fel yma: Ni elltech was- anaethii Duw a Mammon." ldrys.—Os wyf fi yn gwasanaethu Mammon, yr wyt ti'n gwneyd duw o dy fol. Os wyf fi am yr arian i gyd, yr wyt ti am y cwrw a'r segurdod. Yr wyt ti yn gwneyd pob petli yn ddarostyngedig i dy fol: yr wyt yn gwario y cyfan-y tai a'1' tiroedd, yr aur a'r arian, heddwch teuluaidd, cysur meddwlj a bywyd tragwyddol, er mWYll cael cwrw a gwirod. Robill.-Os wyf fi yn/foddlon gwerthu y cyfan er porthi fy mlys at gwrw, yr wyt tithau yn foddlon gwerthu y cyfan am arian. Ti a werthet enw da dy ricni, anrhydedd dy wraig, ac etifeddiaeth dy blant ie, pe bai gwerth arno, ti a werthet dy gymeriad dy hun, os cawset arian am danynt. Os yw fy mlys i am garw yn ddiderfyn, mae dy wane di am gyfoeth yn fwv diddiwedd fyth. Ar ol cael un cant, mae eisiau'r Half: nid yw un mil ond yn creu awydd am y Hall. Mi gaf fi ddigon o gwrw mewn diwrnod, ond ni chei di fyth ddigon o arian. Nid wyt yn gwneyd lies i neb. Yr wyt yn wasgarp-dig, Y" drymaidd, ac yn annedwydd dy hun: nid wyt yn foddlon mwynhau un eiliad o fvwyd rhag ofn i ti golli cyfle i wneyd arian yr wvt yn gwneyd dy deulu yn anhapus gyda thi. Ni chollai neb ddeigryn ar lan dy fedd, nialarai un car na ehyfaill ar dy arch. Dyn i ti dy hunan wyt, ac felly ni elli ddis- gwyl cydymdeindad oddiwrth' neb. Os nad wyf fi yn gwneyd lies i'ni gwraig a'm plant, 'rwy'n gwneyd lies I r dafarn wraig, beth bynag ac 'rwyf yn credu pan y byddaf farw, y bydd i ambelli un, a'r dagrau ar ei rudd, i ddweyd gair caredig am yr hen Robin. Ond mae cybydd-dod yn bechod mor adgas fel na esgyn yr un ochcnaid pan fyddi di mavw. hlrys.—Wei, os yw cybydd-dod yn bechod, nid yw yn bechod mor ffiaidd a dinystrio] a meddwdod. Pwy all ddweyd na meddwl pa sawl llongddrylliad, pa sawl ty a vsbeiliwyd, pa faint o werth a gollwyd ac o aruma wasgarwyd, pa sawl byddin a orohfygwyd. pa sawl dyn a lofruddiwyd, pa sawl gwddf a grogwyd, pa sawl calon a dorwyd, a pha sawl enaid a ddamniwyd o achos meddwdod ? Robin.—Ie, mae meddwdod yn damnio'r enaid ond cofia hefyd, gyfaill, beth ddywed y Gair, Ni chaijj' na chybydtiion na meddieon etifeddu tet/rnas nefoedd." Jdrys.—Wei, yr wyt wedi gwneyd dy hun yn ffiaidd genyf, a gwelaf mai rhagrithiwr wyf wedi bod erioed. Diolch i ti am fy argyhoetldi mewn pryd, os gellir twyllo ein cyd-ddynion, u Na reaftrarer Dti/r." Af gartref yn union, a phrynaf ddigon o fwyd a dillad i'm gwraig a'm plant, a chyfranat yn fwy haelionus at bob achos da yn y dyfodol. Robin—'Rwyf finau yn penderfynu gwella. Kidyn unig mae dy eiriau ùi, ond mae gwynebau gwelw a llwyd fy ngwraig a'm plant, er's llawer dydd yn fy nghyhuddo. Gan hyny, mi ardystiaf ddirwest heno, a'r tro nesaf y cwrddi a mi, cei weled y rhiban glas yn fy nghot. Jilryg. ') -vr ,i Robin. ^0S da> CYMDEITHAS DDIWYLLIADOL GYMRAEG PENBYONT-AR-OGWY.

REVIEWS OF PUBLICATIONS.
REVIEWS OF PUBLICATIONS. INTER SALICES RHEDICINAE.—This is a collection for private circulation of pleasant little verses on various occasions by Mr. J. Young Evans, B.A.. of Oxford. They are written in four languages- English. Welsh, Latin, and Greek, and in each the author shows he is equally at home in grace and easiness of versification. If they are not charac- terised by depth of poetical feeling or newness of treatment, they pleasantly express pleasant thoughts. Take, for instance, one of the Welsh verses, under the title Tristissima Noctis Imago." Eisteddem y'nghilfach y goedwig, Mewn llanerch gogyfer v bryn Ymdaenai dros lanau'r afonig Y nosdarth mewn amdo o wyn. Y rhedyn sibrydent yn dawel, A siio wnai coedydd yr allfc Dan chwythiad ysbrvdioii yr awel Chwarenai a chwyfiai dy wallt. It would be hard to imagine a prettier description of a Nos dawel yn distewi. We confess, however, our ignorance of what the mysterious rhuad y dyfroedd in the next verse can mean. The first verse is altogether infinitely better than the second. The verses are all of varying merit or, as the author would probably express it, nee semper ar cum tendit Apollo." The first verses, Streno," pleased us most I walked along the frosty path That skirted the snow-decked lawn, And heard the neighbouring convent bell Ring forth the New Year's dawn. The moonlight glints through the tall, gaunt trees, The stars in their station glow; A murmur comes through the wintry air From the ice-fringed brook below. There came—I knew not whence-a boy, In tinsclled armour clad He touched me with his hoartipped wings; A gilded scroll he had. My name," said he, is XInty-one, And to bring this gift I came." I took the scroll, and well I knew— Whose fingers writ my name. With trembling hands I broke the seal, And the parchment's length unrolled; And the pledge of a heart that e'er beats true Shone in the lines of gold. [Alden and Co.

PENARTH POLICE COURT.
PENARTH POLICE COURT. MONDAY.—Before Messrs. J. Ware (in the chair), J. Pyke Thompson, and V. Trayes. DRUNKENNESS CASES.—William Dillee for being drunk at Penarth on the 13th inst. was fined 5s.- Police-constable Henry Eaden proved the case.— H. Angore was fined 5s. for a similar offence.— Joseph Thomas and Patrick Kelly did not appear to answer similar charges, and the customary warrants were issued for apprehension.—George Thorne, Cardiff, was charged with being drunk and disorderly at Arcott-street, Penarth, on the 8th inst., and was fined 7s. or seven days' imprison- ment. ASSAULT CASES.—Emma Denman, John-street, Penarth. charged Edward Keene with assaulting her at Penarth on the previous Saturday week. Mr. A. W. Morris prosecuted.—At 9.30 on the date in question the defendant was alleged to have struck complainant in the stomach, took her by the shoulder, and banged her against the wall. In- asmuch as defendant did not appear, the Bench ordered a warrant to be issued.—Euphemia Lenham was charged by Kate Jeffreys with assault- ing her on the 4th inst., but defendant did not appear. Mr. A. F. Hill appeared to prosecute.—It was staied that the defendant went to plaintiff's house, threatened to murder her, and struck her in the face.—The usual warrant was ordered to be issued. SCHOOL BOARD PROSECUTIONS.—A number of School Board attendance cases were heard, and summarily dealt with. A WICKED BOY'S NARROW ESCAPE.—William Henry Jones, nine years old, was charged on re- mand with stealing from the Penarth Hotel on the 30th ult. a reel of cotton, some tape, and pair of scissors.—Alfred Vincent, underboots at the hotel, said that he caught the defendant behind the bar at about half-past four on the afternoon in ques- tion, and when he sa%v witness he said he wanted a drink. Asked what he wanted a drink for, he said he was thirsty. He then looked very guilty and began to cry. Witness then searched him and found the articles mentioned.—The Bench administered a severe caution to the lad, and said it was lucky for him that he had a lenient bench to look up to, otherwise he might be birched, or be sent to prison, and for ever have the brand of felon upon him. However, they had decided that his father would have to bring him for judgment when called upon. In conclu- sion, Mr. Ware advised the lad to become a good boy, and pray to God every night to keep him from stealing.
