MEWS JN BRIEF. The railway companies have reduced the ireightage for fruit from Kentish growers to the London markets by 20 per cent. A Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office tt noon on Saturday, the Minister* sitting until rwo o'clock, A slight explosion of gas occurred at the Melyn finworks on Saturday evening at 830. The damage done is not of a very serious nature. By a fire at No. 31, Woodfield-place, Harrow- road, London, on Saturday night. Mrs. Diana Elements, an elderly woman, was burnt to death. London was enshrouded in darkness for some lours on Tuesday morning owing to thick fogwhich lung overhead, giving the appearance of Novem- ber weather. Artificial light had to be used. At Lewes Assizes on Saturday Mr. Justice Field tentenced Richard Goodhew to twenty years' )enal servitude for savagely attacking a woman with whom he lived, and cutting her ear asunder. Among the undergraduates who will take part in the forthcoming representation of Alcestis at Oxford is Mr. Disraeli, of New College, the son of Mr. Ralph Disraeli, and the late Lord Beaconsfield's heir. Penninghame House, near Newton Stewart, the seat of Mr. Edward Heron Maxwell Blair, was almost totally destroyed by fire on Sunday night, many pictures and other valuable articles being burnt. A fearful triple murder and suicide was com- mitted on Monday at Zehlendorf, a village half- way between Berlin and Potsdam, the wife of a stone-cutter banging her three children, and finally killing herself. At Dulwieh on Monday afternoon the coroner's jury returned a verdict of "Wilful murder" against William Holt Brandt, who is in custody charged with killing his brother Thomas at East Oulwich on the 6th inst. The plantation property of Mr. R. N. Batt, D.L., situate in the town land of Leitrino, County Down, was burned on Sunday night, and on Monday a reward was offered for information to convict the person who committed the outrage. A Daily Chronicle telegram from Vienna states chat an exceptionally horrible case of child murder is reported from Linz, where a peasant killed his illegitimate infant, aged four weeks, by putting it in a large cooking vessel and boiling it to death. A Times Philadelphia telegram says:—The Guilders of Chicago, in view of several strikes pre- vailing, have ordered a general cessation of work throughout the city, and 10,000 men will thus be -endered idle. At Bolton on Monday Herbert Fletcher, owner tnd manager of the Lady Shore Colliery, was fined 620 for refusing to comply with the award of the Impire to stop working his mine with naked ights. The award was backed by 300 men who were employed by the defendant. On Saturday morning, at Kirkcaldy, the dead body of a man named Stables was found in front of his house. The deceased, it is believed, got out of bed in his sleep and stepped out of bis bedroom window, on the third storey, and fell to the ground, distance of forty feet. On Tuesday morning 1,200 of the girls employed n the great match manufactory of Messrs. Bryant And May, at Fairfield-road, Bow, turned out on strike owing to a dispute with their employers as to the deductions from their earnings. If the strike continues very great distress will follow. Consois at 1031! That price was reached on the Stock Exchange three times on Friday, and stands officially recorded as the highest closing figure. It is hardly necessary to point out that this is a higher price than has ever been attained before. "Two and a half per cent. Consols" would seem to be coming within measureable distance. Madame Patti sailed from New York, on board the Umbria, on Saturday. Her farewell perform- ance at the Metropolitan Opera House on Friday evening drew an enormous audience. It is announced that the total receipts of her seven performances in New York were 115,000 dollars, an unprecedentedly large sum. Mr. William O'Brien, editor of United Ireland, was on Monday nominated for the representation of North-East Cork. He was proposed by the Rev. Canon Wigmore, P.P., and seconded by William Fitzgerald, solicitor. There being no other candi- date, he was declared duly elected in the room of •fr. Edward Leamy. The Queen has, on the recommendation of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief, con- ferred a commission, dated Friday, on Quarter- master-sergeaut Frank H. Charteris, of the 13th j Hussars, who is appointed quartermaster to the regiment, with the honorary rank of lieutenant, in place of Mr. F. Lewis, who retires. About seven o'clock on Saturday morning, aa ttie steamer Mercurius, of Amsterdam, was pro- ceeding up the River Thames, when off Mowlem's Wharf, East Greenwich, she came into collision with the steamer Lisbon, of London, bound down in charge of a pilot. The latter vessel received serious damage to port side, and now lies sunk off the above wharf. The Walker Hay Mill at Burnley on Wednesday morning caught fire, and was partially gutted. The flames broke out in the top storey of the mill at five o'clock, and the operatives, who were then beginning to arrive, rescued a large quantity of cloth and twist. The fire was got under in two hours. The amount of the damage is estimated at £16,000, but is covered by insurance. The origin of the fire is not known. An inquest was held at Rainham, near Chelms- ford, on Saturday,onthebodyof a woman which was found tied up iu a bag at Rainham Ferry on Wednesday, without the slightest mark of identi- fication. Dr. Callaway stated that the body, which was that of a woman of about 27, had been cut in pieces, apparently by an expert. He believed somebody wished to get rid of the body piece- meal. The inquiry was adjourned for three weeks. Advices received by mail steamer state that owing to the bad fishing in the north of Ice- land, the population of which subsist mostly on fish, five persons died this winter from sheer star- vation. Owing to the straits caused by the failure in the fishing and the hay crops last season, hundreds of persons have arranged to emigrate to America. The weather in Faroe has been so bad that fishing is almost a failure. A shocking accident is reported from Capel Betts, North WaJes. A young girl, named Lloyd, aged fifteen, who was on a. visit home from Liver- pool, on Monday went out with a companion to look at the old waterwheel at work at Felinfawr, and while watching the fast wheel revolve she accidentally fell into the machinery and was crushed to death by the wheeL The sad affair caused a painful sensation. At Sedgley on Monday, Westwood, a lad fifteen years of age, of Coseley, was committed for trial for wounding A'len Bellingham, a watchman in the employ of Lort Dudley. Bellingham detected the prisoner in the act of stealing coal, anl upon chasing him the prisoner said he would cut his eye out. He thereupon threw a stone at Bellingham, which struck him in the eye and rendered him insensible. He was removed to the hospital, and is now permanently blind. The wife of a dairy-farm keeper named Whitby, who was injured by some fireworks at the Crystal Palace, brought an action against Mr. Brock to recover damages. The case was tried on Tuesday, and the iury awarded the plaintilf £25. SIr. Justice Grantham said the findings of the juiy did not make the defendants liable, though they might make somebody else liable. He, therefore, gave judgment for the de- fendant, but granted leave to the plaintiff to move the court. The Farmer of Monday says:—Northerly wind, dry and harsh weather, and small supplies strengthened the market without making activity. English wheat was in request, at about 6d. ad- vance. Foreign wheat occasionally also realized 6<1. more money. Flour was firm at quotations. Barley was dull, and unchanged in price. Oats were 6J. lower for cheap sorts. Maize was firm for American and rather cheaper for European. Peas wern 6d. dearer, and beans 6d. lower, except for new Egyptians. An accident, which might have proved most disastrous, showing the dangers engendered in the use of dynamite, is reported from Aberystwith. The workmen employed in clearing away the ruins ►f the ancient, bridge crossing the river Rheidol used a quantity of dynamite to loosen the stones in standing archway. The explosion blew the tones through a window in the residence of Capt. lllis, and embedded them in the wall across the com. Fortunately the occupants had left the room. George Barne was brought before the Leicester nagistrates on Saturday charged with causing the leath of his wife. It is stated that the deceased .eca.me ill on Tuesday and went to a neighbour's tamed Boulter, complaining that her husband had ■truck out across the temples. She gave her some >randy, but Mrs. Barnes became insensible and fell the chair. She remained unconscious till last light, when she died. The doctor said the symp- .oms were those of death from effusion of blood on brain. Prisoner was remanded pending the 'nquest. A correspondent writes from WokingA cre- mation took place here on Thursday, the body remated being that of a young Indian Rajah eighteen years of age. The body was brought from Blackheath, and arrived at Brookwood Station about mid-day, when it was taken to the Crematorium, St. John's, Woking. The cremation which was witnessed by three Rajahs, with Mr. Eassie, the secretary of the society, and a few others, lasted about an hour and a half. The ashes were taken away, it is said, for placing in water according to an Indian custom. After the ashes sad been removed, the coffin in which the body was brought was burnt in the furnace. Lars Swensen was brought up at Liverpool on Tuesday charged with causing the death of Thomas Kavanagh, second mate of the Annie Guudey, at sea, on April 13. Kavanagh attempted to strike Swensen twice with a belaying pin whilst the latter was in the rigging. These blows Swensen parried, and when attempting a third blow the prisoner aimed a marlingspike at Kava- nagh, which struck him on the left side of the tead. He reeled and fell, bleeding from the head. 7our hours afterwards he died, and was buried at tea. The Magistrate held that prisoner had only icted in self-defence, and that he must be dis- :harged. Great influence is always exerted politically by ieyer cartoons. Hitherto the Parnellite and Sepa- ratist parties have had matters pretty much their own way so far as low-priced cartoons dealing with the Irish question are concerned. To remedy this defect, the proprietors of England newspaper have decided to give away, free, a coloured cartoon each week with the paper, beginning on the 21st of May. The first two cartoons will deal with certain phases of the side generally obscured or skipped over by the Home Rule party. For this reason it is, perhaps, all the more essential that they should be brought clearly before the masses. who look at a picture but seldom or never read matter.
Field Meeting of the Cardiff…
Field Meeting of the Cardiff Naturalists. About thirty members of the Cardiff Naturalists' Society, including a few ladies, formed the com- pany, the occasion was the first field meeting of the season on Wednesday, and the ironstone mines of the Lower Garth Mountain, a mile or there- abouts from the Walnut Tree Junction, the principal scene of operations. Two well-horsed breaks conveyed the party, a start being effected a few minutes after two o'clock. The votaries of nature were favoured by their mis- tress, for the sombreness of the morning's sky had been swept aside, and the bright sunshine came down from a sea of blue. Granted a little less dust and not quite so stiff a breeze, and a perfectly ideal summer's day would have been the result, not too warm, but just warm enough. Leaving the town by Cathedral-road, and ascend- ing ever by gentle gradations, the first halt was made by the residence of Mr. Henry Lewis, on the outskirts of TafPs Well. Here the scene was delightful, for the valley of the Tuff was spread out before the eye, rich in the varied tints of its spring verdure and furrrowed fields and in the bright green foliage of the multitude of tiny copses, irregularly dotting the hill sides on either hand. The halt, however, was not due to a desire to gratify the lovers of the picturesque, but ilt deference to the claims of antiquarian research. A tumulus, overshadowed by trees and surrounded by water, stood within a stone's throw of the highway. Tradition had invested the spot with a mystic halo, and the fact that it had never been excavated was marched out with becoming solemnity, and the manifold possibilities suggested by the pro- posal to delve for the hidden secrets gave the rein to the imaginations of the more imaginative. Modern cynicism, in the person of a matter-of-fact gentleman, knocked the bottom out of fanciful theories, and dissipated the fair visions conjured up. Twenty-five years ago, he said with cruel nonchalance, the tumulus had been opened, and —shade of Pickwick—the only relic of bygone years disentombed was a jar of beer. If you excavate you will probably find the jar still there, for it was put back," he added. The most sturdy antiquarian could not withstand so dispiriting a prospect as this, and within a few minutes after the untoward revelation" the horses were cantering along a road from the greater part of which the sunshine was shut out by the trees. Where the valleys seemed to converge to a single point, and then be lost in the moun- tains, and where the little village of Taff's Well nestled in the hollow of a trio of hills, the breaks were abandoned, and then began a toilsome march up the steep gradient of the Lower Garth Mountain side. Equi-distant from the top and the bottom the mountain had been pierced by a level not very high nor very clean-even as levels go-for the water trickling from the roof, not content with a channel for egress, had claimed the whole of the surface as well. However, the disciples of scientific research had equipped themselves for contin- gencies, and, in a long Indian file, the procession left the daylight behind, and, each armed with a formidable tallow candle, set forth to explore the inner recesses of the mountain. On they trudged, lighted by the flickering candles, on through the level, a low, roughly-cut roof overhead, and beneath much mud and clay, diversified often and disagreeably by mucky puddles. They passed a shaft which, sunk to a depth of more than 200ft., had been flooded by water most gruesome to the sight, and with the surface thickly encrusted by dust. When nearly a third of a mile had been covered a flood of light poured down upon the party, who found themselves in a vaulted cave, prodigious in its proportions, weird in the grotesqueness of its strangely-carved sides and roof. Huge boulders bulged out, cavernous crevices gaped of every imagi- nable shape. Here and there the rocks, otherwise solidly knit, were rent and riven, and fissures shot across and downwards. It was if some huge Titan had hacked and hewed the stony fabric and shaped the hollow while in most whimsical mood. Here from a mound of stones, under the canopy of blue sky, which seemed sweetly serene as seen through the aperture in this quaintly-formed dome, the hon. secretary (Mr. R. W. Atkinson) read the paper written for the occasion by Mr. Stephen Vivian, entitled, Iron ore deposits in Wales." In this it was stated that the ore in the Garth Mine was found in a succession of very irregular, but extremely large, deposits. Forming the foot wall of the "pockets" was a hard crystaline lime stone. As far as modern work- ing was concerned, this mine had the honour of being the pioneer, having been pretty continu- ously at work since the beginning of the century until about three years ago, when it was abandoned, more than one million tons of ore having been extracted therefrom. The reading over the explorers proceeded farther into the interior, and reached an even more im- posing vaulted cavern, where the light was less strong and the surroundings more weird and impressive. In one direction the water—clear and limpid and showing a light coloured bottom- stretched away and was lost in the darkness. Divided from this by a wedge-shaped rock was the main shaft, many fathoms deep. Lit up by mag- netium light the place was not unlike that master- piece of staging, the scene on the Brocken in "Faust," only the colouring was more darksome and fearful. After a long pause the open air was sought, the gigantic cavities viewed from the mountain top, and then followed a most appetising tea,served in rough and ready fashion on the green- sward, shaded by foliage. Here it was possible to identify the visitors, who included Principal Jones (president) and Mrs. Jones, Dr. Vachell, Mr. and Mrs. Price, the Mi.«s«s Price, and Mr.W.H.Price, Mr. T. Gavey, Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Atkinson, Mr. C. T Whitinell, Mr. C. H. James, Merthyr; Mr. A. S. Wells and Miss Wells, Mr. D. Morris, Mr. W. P. James and Miss James, Mr. and Mrs. Davies, Miss Griffiths, Mr. L. P. Whitwham, Mr. J. Y. Strawson, Mr. A. T. Atkinson, Mr. D. Shepherd (hon. secre- tary's assistant), Mr. T. V. Proger, Mr. J. G. Jones, and a couple of press representatives. At seven o'clock the homeward journey began, and another delightful drive ended a day's complete enjoy- ment.
Cardiff Chamber of Commerce.
Cardiff Chamber of Commerce. The ordinary monthly meeting of the above chamber was held at the Rooms, the Exchange, Mount Stuart-square, Cardiff, on Wednesday morning, Mr. John Gunn presiding. The abstract of a Bill, called rt The Private Bill Legislation Bill," was read by Mr. Hawkins, secretary. By this measure it is proposed to substitute three Commissioners at L3,000 per annum salary for the Parliamentary Committees which at present deal with local measures.—The opinion of the members was, on the whole, favourable to the Bill.—The secretary of the Swansea Chamber wrote in respect to short weight of coals in French ports. One of the Swansea members, it stated, had gone to Rochefort and inspected the machine bv which coal was weighed there. He found 'it very defective, but through his representations it was repaired. The Chairman agreed to endorse a resolution drawing the attention of French chambers to the subject.—From the trade and regulation returns it appeared that for April, 1887, there was an increase over the corresponding month of 430,000 tons, or 201 per cent. Swansea had decreased i per cent.—This was all the busi- ness of public interest.—The chairman (Mr. John Gunn) it transpired, has been invited to attend the thanksgiving services at Westminster in cele- bration of the Queen's Jubilee.

Another tragic affray took place on the Boulevard des Italiens, Paris, on Saturday night. A professor of music named Leon Honore fired a revolver three times at his father-in-law, M. Clovis Vasses, who is now in a dying state. A trifling family dispute was the cause of the attempted murder. Honors gave himself up immediately, asserting that M. Vasses had struck him, and that he acted under strong provocation. Mr. Netherclift, expert in handwriting, was re- examined befcrethe Select Committee on Monday on alleged bogus petitions. Out of 22 petitions favouring the coal and wine dues he believed nearly all the signatures, numbering 34,106, were false, and the work of three or four people. In 33 petitions against the dues he doubted 426 signa- tures. Evidence on the other side showed that out of 61 signatures taken at random 48 had been proved genuine.

REMARKABLE TESTIMONY FROM CARDIFF. Mr. Richard Smith. 29, Eisteddfod-street, Temper- ance Town, Cardiff, writes, March 12th, 1884 :-1 had been a great sufft-rer from dropsy for twelve months, been tapped ten times, and 35 gallons of water taken from me, and given up by five doctors, who could do no 7J0re/v°r me* hi1!! I happened to see in the jVorth Wilts J/rrald an advertisement of your Pills. I gave them a trial, and after taking one box I was able to leave my bed, which I had not done for eight months. After the second box I was able to walk down stairs. The third box so far cured me that I was able to go about and carry on my business. Hundreds in Carditf are witnesses to 1 he truth of this, and I shall be happy to answer any inquiry relating to my case.—Mr. William Yeatmau, 17 ■ Gr^Str?et: C»nto"' Cardiff, writes, 31st May, 1886 :-Just before Christmas last my wife was taken very ill with Inflammation of the Lungs and Bronchitis, attended with Dropsy.

[725 CHILDREN I TEETHING r f • F ELt DING!! I THE FATAL EFFECTS ON INFANTS frequently following the use of soothing medicines, as is proved by the large number of inquests on children dying after taking those dangerous reme- dies, make it incumbent on purchasers to be very particular to distinguish OTEDMAN'S TEliTHING POWDERS O from all others. similar or dissimilar. The dan- gerous ingredient in all soothing medicines is the opium or morphia which they contain, but from which STEDMAN'S TEETHING POWDERS s are entirely free, as witness Dr. Hassall's certifi- cate. Hence, for the welfare and safety of the child. purchasers should insist on seeing the Registered Trade Mark, a Gum Lancet, on every single powder and packet, and should refuse to have others imposed upon them. TEDMAN'S TEETHING POWDERS s The Analytical Institution, 54, Holborn Viaduct, E.C., London. November 29.1877. Report on the Teething Powder prepared by Dr. btoedman, Hoxton :— "I hereby certify that I have purchased a sample of Stedman's Teething Powder, and have, at the request of the proprietor, subjected it to analysis for Morphia or Opium in any form. I am enabled to state that I found the sample in question to be absolutely free from Morphia or anv other alkaloid or constituent of Opium. Thus Stedman's Teething Powder is favourably distinguished from similar preparations. "ARTHUR H. HASSALL. M.D." ESTIMONIAL from Mrs. HUGHES M Rossall School, Lancashire. Bouall School, Poulton-le-Fvlde, Lancashire, Feb. 11,1875. Dear Sir,—I have used your Teething Powders regularly for nearly two years, and in no single instance have I found them fail. No words of mine can half express the confidence I have in them, nor convey any idea of the great value and com- fort they have been to me and many other mothers to whom I have recommended them. Yours very truly, J. H. HUSHES. "To Dr. Btedman, London." THUS the public can always protect its children's interest by using a little ordinary care to insist on seeing the TRADE MARX (a Gum Lancet) before paying, as some vendors from inte- rested motives will impose on purchasers dangerous substitutes, and parents must take the responsi- bility on themselves of giving what may prove fatal to their children. Any evidence of deception will be thankfully received at 125, New North-road, Hoxton, London, N. Price Is. ljd. (Nine Powders) and 2s. 9d. (27 powders).
