Bangor College will be opened in the week beginning October 19th. Haymaking is becoming general, excellent crops being secured on meadows. The weather continues delightful, aud visi- tors are tempted to the seaside earlier than usual. The preamble of the Barry Dock Bill was approved by the House of Commons committee on Wednesday. r The Rev Enoch Jones, curate of Llandudno, and son of Mr Jones, Alermagwr, Crosswood, took the degree of M.A. at Oxford last week. Another member of the College staff has taken to preaching, Prof. Brough being an- nounced to deliver a sermon in one of the chapels. The annual meeting of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is adver- tised to he held on Tuesday afternoon, at the Town Hall. Mr David Evans, the newly-elected alderman for the City of London, is a Welshman, being y I" a native of Llantrisant, Glamorganshire. Alderman Evans, who is thirty-five years of age, is a Conservative. His nomination was seconded by Mr Stephen Evans. A meeting of the executive committee of the North Cardiganshire Agricultural Society is announced to be held at the Town Hall on Monday. As the prizes will be settled, and the judges appointed, and other arrangements made, the meeting will be an important one, and ought to be well attended. 0 Mr Lewis Morris has intimated that it is his intention to propose, at the next Council meet- ings of the Aberystwyth and Cardiff Colleges, a resolution that the proposed conference is premature as regards higher education, and unnecessary as regards intermediate education. A correspondent in another column suggests whether it vould not be beneficial for the College Council to consider if it is desirable that the agreement which authorises the Prin- cipal of the College to accept preaching en- gagements should be permitted to continue in force. The abstract of accounts for the half-year ended March 26th shows a slight improvement in the position of the Union, there being a decrease in the number of out-door and in-door paupers, and also in ;the expenditure. The abstract is prepared with the care which has characterised it for some years, and is a credit to Mr Lewis Evans. Mr T. Davies, Bootle, and Mr Keeling, Liverpool, have intimated their intention to give each a scholarship of fifty pounds, tenable for five years at the College. That is the sort of thing that is required. This act of these two gentlemen will do more to strengthen the College than all the resolutions of all the deno- minations put together. The result of the Lampeter School Board election is a surprise. Mr William Jones, Llwynygroes, the unsuccessful candidate, is one of the most influential gentlemen in the town and neighbourhood, and is very popular, but the course he has chosen to adopt with regard to religious education in schools had completely alienated him from the Church party, and his new sillies, the Nonconformists, do not seem to have given him their united support. Mr A. G. Dawson, of Macclesfield, has pub- lished an interesting illustrated work, which lie calls ifThe Amateur's Guide in Bee-keep- ing." The writer has evidently made himself thorough!y acquainted with bees and their habits, and iliose who desire to enter upon the lucrative study and rearing of apiaries we can strongly recommend this little book. The pursuit is instruciive, agreeable, and profitable, especially when carried out on such lines as those laid down by Mr Dawson. Quarter Sessions will be held at Lampeter and Dolgelley on Tuesday. The College meetings will be held on Mon- day evening and Tuesday. The debt remaining on Llaubadarn Church is now only about f850. The total expenditure is about £ 7,000. The promoters of all entertainments and public meetings of various kinds expect to see the objects in which they are interested reported at length in the newspapers, but it does not always occur to them to advertise those events in the newspapers in which reports are expected to appear. The public have but a slight idea of the cost of pro- ducing a good paper, and would be surprised to be told that twenty pounds a week does not go far in the production of one. An instance of the sort of thing to which we refer occurs in this town just now. Shortly a bazaar will be held in connection with one of the Noncon- formist chapels, and doubtless we shall be expected to report the event, at considerable expense to ourselves, but the promoters have not advertised in this paper, although they show their appreciation of that means of securing publicity by inserting an advertise- ment in another paper. In cases of this kind the bulk of the promoters know nothing of the details, which are entrusted to a committee, and they are not in any way responsible for the management. Possibly the committee are not desirous of being supported by Church- people and Conservatives; but that can hardly be so, for most of their patrons are Church- people. This is but a solitary instance of the many that might be mentioned. For instance, the managers of the Promenade Pier and the Town Band will be surprised if they are not noticed in the newspapers, but they do not advertise. No doubt the fault is due to the newspapers, which have reported events whether advertised or not.
