MUSIC IN WALES. By D. EMLYN EVANS. ADJUD)CAT)NG BY MARKS )N AMERtCA. America isnothtng unless it is something fine and large something that whips the universe," in the words of one of Dickecs's immortals, Mr Jefferson Brick. And when adjudicating by marks or figures was imported into the Welsh Eisteddfod, catching for a while at least the fancy of a portion of the public, some of us were not surprised—from the particutar nature of the system—to find that it also attracted the favour of our Trans- atlantic kinsmen, and that it was being intro- duced with due thoroughness to the Eistdd- fodau of that country. That they would aim at. making the system go one better than it ever d)d 10 this eSete old land was again only what was to be expected. But as some of OlJr English friends acti"g as judges at choral con tests here, )iad been able to determine the position of a series of contestants so Bneiy as to ptace them just within one mark of each other and, indeed, in some cases choirs had by as tittle as half a mark it was evident that after that nothing was impossible. When. however, a perusal of that very readable Welsh. American paper. Y Drych informed one that at a then recent Eisteddfod held at Canton, Ohio, out of Nine Choirs Competing on the chief choral subjects, one was awarded 7Jt marks. ascend 77¡, a third 8It, and a fourth 92}. white some marks in other contests were 581, 75! and 95\ a person was somewhat at a toss to understand at first reading how such resmts were arrived at Subse- quently it was explailled that the adjudicators, in acc.rd.nce with the rules oi the committee, had to sit separately, holding no commuta- tion with one another, but present each his award m ngures to the secretary, a board of directors afterwards averaging the whole, and pronouncing the nnal result and verJ.ct depending thereon. Hence the minute numeri- cal divisions which looked so mysterious at first sight. !t is hardly necessary to add that it would not require a person of very great eisteddfodtc experience, or o much perception, to sea that such a system as the above forresu)atipg or restricting the action of the judges coutd not possib'y work smoothly. Somcth:ng similar as to occupying separate seats, with no previous consultation before each adjudicator handed in his decision, has been tried in this country and it was a law laid down, indeed, in the condi- tions regarding the adjudication of the com- positions at this year's National Eisteddtod. But Adjudicators Who Know Their Work either decline to accept such conditions, if iniormed of them beforehand, or ignore them jn the working. It is but due to the Carnarvon author ies to add. that ultimately—and voluntarily—the impracticability of the rule was iu!ly recognised by them. Thesp things are really only the result of the fussiness of a few basybodies,who. by accident finding themselves on a are determine! to put the eisteddfodk world nght, as they thnk, come what may. Unfortunately, committemen of experience are few, and will continue to be few until a central authority is established but the <ew there are know weH that they have enough to do in thefr own department, without inter- fering with the duties of the man or men on the adjudicators' bench. Speaking after a somewhat long acquaintanceship with Eistedd. fodau, we have mvariabty<ound. sometimes by experience and somettmes by observation. that while at an Eisteddfod where the judges are hacked by a strong. committee, the affair spells success and pleasantneas where opposite conditiona prevail the contrary results follow. Taken in the aggregate, Welah Esteddfodists, in anv case-are very much the same all the world over At Canton, for instance." Worthy is the Lamb," ani Gwylym Gwent's Gwanwyn (spring) were selected as test-pieces; the old sheep-hke method of progression-progress would hardly be the correct word. That certain "chorus members" were dissatisfied, and "gave vent to their footings in a manner not creditable, again depicts a familiar scene )n the Matter of Prizes, however, they show us a way that 't would be we)! to foUow. The amounts offered in the chief choral contest at the above E'steddfod. for instance, being-first priza. 600 doHars; second prize. 250 doliars. and third prize. 150, or in British money. B120..E50. and £30re. spectivelv in winch we note two ponts for commendation, cue being that there are three prizes, and that while the first is fair)y liberal the lesser amount are not contemptibly small. But. to return to our precise subject the dissatisfaction in regard to .omc of the choral awards at Canton was so general that Jho committee issued an {Jffici:ll report .n a short time. announcing that "while the directors beHevpJ and do vet. believe in the honesty and fairmindedness nf the comm.ttf-e that figured up the sheets and gave out the results on the Eisteddfod day. yet under the circumstances. considering the amount ofnguringthat was necessary, especially of the nine mixed choruses, and having to do so m the halt under vary inconvenient con. ditions. they came to the conOus-on (know'ng that no one is infallible in Sgu'eg or anything else. that. unintentional mistakes have been made and always w'tl be by the very best of men) to appoint a new committee te carefully inspect the adjudicating sheets of the ma!e party and the mixed chorus." The result of this inspection was that A Great Mistake waa discovered in ono of the adjudicators' sheets. being a difference of 10 points in the tMidition. or &ve points in the average; and the committee consequently called upon tLe conductor of the second prize choir, which had benefited by the aheve error, to change p!ace with that of the third nrize chorus," whtch had Irom the same cau<e suffered, the former giving up to the latter the dilfeenc.. in the prize money and the medILI. and recoiving in return the meda! which really belongs to him. giving unto Cœsar that which belongs to Caesar, and unto God thtt belongs to God. The committees finding is hard)y strengthened by the introduction of the Biblicfd quotation at the end. As to the restitution demanded and tba result, time will show- The latest development up to the present date s that the judge whose arithmetic was impugned asserts that his Sgarea have been interfered with. Altogether, we are disposed to think that after all there are some things which we do better even 'n poor little Wales than they do in the United States of America.

A Welsh gentieman from Philadelphia. who is & constant, reader of W etsh Tit-bits. writes to know where is LtanUwg," and wishes to be informed if such a place exists m any of the cuunties of South I a.m almost certain that there ia not such a place to bo found, but there ts a very important division of Monmouthshire caUed Gwentllwg." The jurisdiction of the "Old Chair of Gla- morgan (Cadair Morgaawg). we are told by Liewetyn Sion. of Hangewydd, who was the greatest authority on the question, extended over the present Glamorgan. Gwent, Enas (in Herefordshire), Frying, and Yatrad Yew (the Lwo )ast cow in Brecknockshire) and the same authority says that the above counties were anciently known first by the name of Gwent, and after that Essyilwg (Siiuria,), and including the Forest of Dean, which wa.s cabled Cantref Coch "—the Red Hundred. Essyllwg is derived from Syitt." whence syllu (view, aspect-). &c adding the prepositive e and the terminal! ve wg." which is so common in Welsh pl&ce names in this division of WaJe3. Thus Essy)lwg signifies beautiful aspect, comety, sightty, and is synonymous with Gweot, which means fa.ir." Gwent-Ltwg is the part of Monmouthshire, wh.ch hea West of the river Usk. By Gwent we now mean on)y Monmouthshire, and Gwent- Uwg is'often considered in Glamorgan, and Maeaa'eg and Lianeurwg. as well as other ptaces, sometimes are mentioned as in Mor. ganwg, After the Romans I'ad quitted the island, ing the government of the country in the handset the inhabitants thereof. those who were of the anc'ent Wetsh princes parcelled the country between them. Of these princes was Morgan, who was descended from the great Ctractacus, and he obtained the sovereignty of Siiuria., EsyHwg, or which was more ancient. Iy called Gwent. and be calted the county after his own name. Morganwsr, which means lh£1 country of Mor¡t&n." This is said to contain the ancient Gwent. or Essyilwg. except Garth Fadrin, which is now called Brecon- shire. which fell to the lot of Brychan Bey. cbeiniog, another petty prince, from whom that county was afterwards caUed Brychein. iog. When lestyn ab Gwrgan was dispossessed of bis inheritance by the Norman ad venturers, the appellation Morganwg became limited to the country that iies between the Csk River aod the Neath River, and this division inclu- ded Gwent-LIwg, and also BIaenau Gwent. In the time of Henry the Eighth, the present divis on of Wales was made. and Monmouth. shire made an Engu"h county. The ancient diviaion is sttH that of the Welsh bishoprics. Monmouth Town. In Norman time Monmonth town was of a great consideration. Ancient!y. it was catted Abermynwy, then it came to be called Tre. fynwy, and RnaMv Monnow Mouth—the mouth of the Monnow river, which joins the Wye east of the cown. The Barony was annexed to the Earldom of Lancaster by Henry the Third. when he made his son Edmund P'antagenet Earl. John of Gaunt succeeded to it by marri age with Blanche, daughter of Henry Groamond." Duke of Lancaster, and the baronetcy the most considerate private patrimony in Christendom.

TALKS ON HEALTH. .
TALKS ON HEALTH. BY DR. ANDREW W)L80N. About the Breath. JIlt as the state of the tongue affords an in- dication of the digestive system, and g'ves the DhysiCian a. hint regarding a guod ma.ay other diseases, so, in a lesser degree, lhe slate of the breath may be said to be a s.gn of some vaiue when considered witu reference to disturbance} of health. In a state of good health. and when the teeth have been, as they ought to be. regularly brushed, and the mouth cleansed, the breath caturaltv has a, sw&et and agree- able odour; but when the conditions are reversed, and when, owing to neglected teeth, or, as we shall see, other causes, the breath acquires an odour the reverse of agreeable the condition is one not merely annoying to the sub- jcct.but to those who are in immed ate associa- tion with him. It is curious to note that.tn cer- tain dheases, the breath may have a sweet and by no mens disagreeable O,lOur, which has often been compared with the smell of a room in which apples have been kept. This charaeteDstic is found in the disease known as diabetes. Again, m Bnght's disease of the ktdueya, the breath may present an odour resembling that of sal-vola.tile. Some Causes. As has been already noted, the most frequent cause of offensive breath is to be found in neg- lect uf the teeth. More especially if the teeth are decayed is this condition apt to arise. It 's therefore of extreme importance that the teeth, not only on account of the breath, but for their own should be duly attended to and brushed morning and night the ntght brushing being the more important of the two, because the small particles of food which ha ye accumulated between the teeth dutingr the day are thereby removed from the mouth. Smokers shoul! especially attend to this rule, and the use of a mouth wash aftL'r smoking is therefore also to be recommended. Note also that offensive breath very often p:o cee s from a disordered stomach It is ve<y common m cases of indigestion, and we may be led to suspect this caus? if- the teeth being rigidly attended to, the breath is still disagree- able. Here commonsense will teach us that it is only by curing the indigestion that we can hope to better matters at all. A remedy of subsidiary character; and one which aids the cure of indigestion, is that of eatmg a ch&r coal biscuit after a mesd. The other causes of oSensive breath may be enumerated as connected with the nose and sometimes with affectionn of the tonsils, but these conditions, of course, can be easdy remedied, once their nature and presence have been duly deter- mined. Gout and Rheumatism. One very often hears inquiries made regard. ing the dtSerence between gout and rheumatism aa th-jy are two diseases which are only too frequently represented amongst us. There is, of course, a, disease known as rheumatic gout. but Jt is highly probable that this ailment is only a variety of gout )tae)f. and one tiabte, in a typical case. to be of a severe character. The difference between the two diseases is, Srst of all. that the cause of one differs materially from the cause of the other Rheumatism is caused by the accumu- lation in the system of a certain kind of waste which should be duly got rid of, and which is known as lactic acid. Gout on the other hand is caused by a similar accumulation in the system of another acid known as uric acid. With referencf io gout, it occurj far more frequently in males than in fern les. whilst rheumatism appears to descend equally in Loth sexes. Again, gout is usuaify regarded, and with reason, as being hereditary, that :s, handed down from father to son, whereas in the case of rheumatism this tendency is not &t ail of marked character. Gout is mostly but not entirely assoct&ted with btgh livin. excess of mùat food, want of exercise, and abuse of alcohol. It may, however, occur in the poor. Rheumatism, however, is more typicaDy a disease aSectiug those who are il'- fed and notovr-rwe1i'povIdcd with the llécessi. ties uf hfe. In the case o gout.again, we Rndas ;t rule that only one joint is attacked, ia fsr- lier seizures especially, this being usually that .A the big toe. In rheumatism, on the other hand, several joints may be attacked and larger jomts of the body are apt to suffer severely. Some Other Points. In gout the skin does not act in a vtry marked tashion. wheras in rheumatism, one of the prevailing characteristics of the dis- ease is that a, profuse perspiration sooner or later appears in the course oi the attack this perspiration having a very peculiar sour smell In the case o) gouc there is no special tendency on the part ot the disease to leave any after effects on the heart, wberas in the case of rheumatism a. dangei which the phy- sician bears in mind and does hia best to avert is thac the disease may leave on the heart some effects very o'ten of a- serious kind Finally, we may remember that with regard to gout. ft is not a disease of the young, but t'atner one affecting middle aged rheumatism on the other hand, be ng very common in young people. Sciatica. One or two sufferers from this very pamfu disease have of late asked questions regard ingo ita nature, flnd ii there are ""ny pr()<¡npcs o; cure. especially for those who have suffered fur a tcnethy period from rhe aUment. The s"ilLtic nerve i j bal. Isrge nervp wnich issues from the haunch, and passes down the back of the th:gh as the main tine of the nervou3 system in the !eg. Pain )s complained of most'y in the neighbourhood of the hip and the upppr part of the thigh, but it may extend th'' whoie length of the leg. Pa'n in this follow ng thf denn'te course tndtcated.shou'd give rise to the suspicion that sciatica is the condition represented. The pain ia increased by move- ment t-Vith regard to the nuture of disease, whilst in farmer days it was regarded as due to some cbtl-tition probably innamma- tion affecting the nerve itsetf, physicians now consider the ailment to be one represented by some condition, gouty or otherwise, of the sheath which surrounds the nerve. Be t! at ap it may. the affection is an extremely painful one. and dimcult to cure. Some physicians expressed the opinion that cases oi sciatica are 'requently found where people iive in a damppoi! or in the neighbourhood of swampj ani marshes. Treatment.

Cases of cure have also been reported. it may be added, by the use of brine or sa.lt baths, typically represented at Droitwich and elsewhere. These batjs are also highly cele. bra.ted for the cure of rheumatism.
