.k!IONDAY, JANUARY 6, 1879. A shocking outra,o-e was committed at the house of a lady named Smit-'h, n<.ar Bristol, ou Friday night, to which access wa.s ga.:ned by a gang of men, who, after knocking down the housekeeper and tying ?sr hands, severely beat her mistress, and decamped with about ;E150. The committee of the Southwater eistedd- fod are forwarding their arrangements for the great meeting 'of next summer. The subject of the chair poem is to be ?Fua- tinct." Some good choral prizes have been agreed upon, and the Rev Kilsby Jonea will be one of tha couductors. The Merthyr Board of Guardians, on Saturday, discussed the payment of schoo] fees for the children of indigent parents, and the high death-rate in the workhouse, caused by the excessive cold. It was resolved to allow the lay readers connected with the Rector to minister in the workhouse. At the meeting of the Cardiff Board of Guardians, on Saturday, Mr C. W. David, in the chair, it was resolved to offer a re- ward of jE20 for the apprehension of Peter Wnde, the absconding relieving omcer, and the questions of the appointment of a pay- clerk and the revision of the districts of the relieving omeers for the urban district were referred to a committee. The certi6cate of Evan Foster, manager, was suspended for six months, at Swansea, on Saturday, for having, by incompetence or negligence, endangered the lives of seve- ral persons in an explosion in the Ystrad- gyniais Collieries on September 6th.

- CARDIFF BOARD OF GUARDIANS.
CARDIFF BOARD OF GUARDIANS. The usual weekly meeting of the Cardie Bo?td of Guardians was held on Saturday at the boan! room of the workhouse, Mr C. W. David pro. aiding. STATISTICS The master of the workhouse reported that dunngthe past week there had been 23 admimioM. 10 discharges; 1 birth, and 2 deaths, leaving 391 ia the house, being a decrease of 43 on the correspond. ing week of last year. Vagrants relieved during the week. 19; corresponding week of last year 6<f The superintendent at Ely schools reported that during the week there had been no admissions. and no discharges. There were 255 inthehouaa* an increase of 7 on the corresponding week of hm year. RELIEVING OFFICERS' DUTIES.—OUGHT A PAY CLERK TO BE APPOINTED ? Mr BiBCHAM, the Local Government Board In, specter, who was present, said that after what ha< occurred with regard .to one of the relievim omcers in the town district, he would sug- gest the advisability of appointing < Pay cleik for this district as worthy of the serioua consideration of the guardians. Mi Bircham proceeded My attention has been called to the paramount necessity which exists for the relieving officers to visit paupers, not only in th< pprfunctory fashion before a fresh application, but unexpectedly, in order that they may master the paupen), in order that they may know what ie goin? omn the homes of the persons receiving rehef. 1 hat is a duty which they owe to the poor, and to the ratepayers. It is a question whether the time of a relieving omcer is not un- duly taken up with routine duties, and of paying paupers, and whether too often he only visits them on pay-days. I am not going to make a charge agamatanyone. His time is so much taken up in routine work that he has not time for these unexpected visits, from which so much is to be expected. There is another advantage in the ao. pointment of a pay-clerk in that a wholesome check will be created of one omcer over another All payments would go through the pay-cl<*rk'< hands the paupers would be paid by him Mid h& would be much more strict about their persona! attendance. The relieving omcer would be a check upon the pay-clerk, and the pay-clerk upon the relieving omcer. A good omcer would have no reason to fear, he would have no objection to this.for he would feel his oosition an easier one and no suspicion could attach to him. The third reason is that geographically the Cardiff union ia such that a pay-clerk would be easily workable. Some modinca.tions of the relieving otHcera dis. tricts-possibly you might do with one relieving omeer less, would have to be made—and I should suggest that.tbe whole matter be referred to a com- mittee. There has been a. pay-clerk in the M"rthyt union for some time, and the plan is found to work well. and in the Bedwellty union the plan also works well. In Cardiff union it could be worked with greater ease than in any other union in the district, and the relieving oiHcer would have nothing else to do than visit paupers. I hope the least the guardians will do will be to take into consideration, before the appointment of the relieving omcer, the advisability of appointing a pay-clerk. Dr PAiNE rose to move that aoulication be made to the Local Government Board to appoint ft pay- clerk, and that the duties of the relieving omcera of the districts of the town parishes be revised. He thought it waa desirable that a. ay-clerk should be appointed, in order that the relieving omcers might devote themselves to their duties o) visiting paupers. The CHAIRMAN considered that the board ought to have information as to the time consumed by relieving officers in paying paupers. It appeared to him that it was possible to reduce the staff of relieving omcers, in view of the fact chat the guardians might resolve to appoint a pay-clerk. Dr PAINE said that the primary duties of the relieving omeers, which \vere to visit paupers and ascertain the condition of their ho'ues, were prac- tically neglected—at least to a very great extent. Mr BonLANGER did not think that the time occupied in paying paupers by reIieving-ofHcers was so very great. The CHAIRMAN said the matter was of very great importance, and he thought; the advertise. ments might be discontinued, the advertisementa for a new relieving-omcer in the room of Peter Wride, who had absconded. He thought the com- mittee's report ought to be heard first—a report as to the time takeu u? by paying the poor. Dr LEWIS said there was a necessity of thia being taken notice of. He quite agreed with the remarks which had been made by the inspector, Mr Birebam, and he observed that Mr Bircham made use of the words, "paramount necessity." These were very strong expressions, but from his experience he found that relieving. omcers did not visit paupers anything likt they ought to do. On former occasions he called special attention to reIieving-oSicers and to their duties, and thought it was most desirable that a printed list should be hu;:g u:) in some parts of the union workhouse, so that 'the guardians might be able to rea'l there aud detect relieving omcers when the regulations were neglected. H? knew relieving-omcers speut time, valuable time, in ways they ought not to do. The CHAIRMAN said the subject before the meeting was not so much the duty of relieving- oSicers as the immediate resolution. Dr. LEWIS !said it appeared to him that the great point which the remarks made by the In* pector hinged was the duty of the relieving. omcers. Dr PAINE proposed, after some further convex Bation, and Mr STONE seconded, that the resolu- tion passed at the last board meeting shou!d b< rescinded, and that advertisements be discon' tinued, pending investigation by a committee t< report to the board. The resolution was carried unanimously, and the clerk instructed accordingly. A committee was, on the suggestion of Dr Paine, appointed. Dr LNwis objected to the constitution of the committee, and suggested that persons from the rural districts might be appointed. DrPAiNEsa.id the appointment of the town guardians was in view of the probability of their special knowledge of the subject. Dr LEWIS suggested that the names of Mr Jonas Wa,.sou and Mr Bassett should be added to the committee. But as this was not seconded, the orMnat motion was declared carried. ° ANONYMOUS LETTERS. JMr JACOBS said he had a fe remarks to make with regard to a letter which had appeared in the local daily papers. They had been treated to a great deal of discussion upon the proceedings at the meeting of last Saturday. He was not in the habit of taking any notice of anonvmous letter, but as thia one was of a very excep- tional character, bearing personally upon himself, he felt he could not allow the occasion to pass by. The letter he spoke of was signed A Guardian, "ianj the inference to be drawn from it was that the writer was a member of the con&. mittee appointed to enquire iuto the relieving offi. cer's defalcations. The writer said that Mr Jacobs had stated in the town, what he kne .v to be un. true, that Peter Wride had only embezzled a few pounds. Now the writer said he (Mr Jacobs) wa< aware of the larger deficiency. In reality lie was not. It so happened that he was not at the board when the further report of the committee was submitted. He was under the impression that the amount was £28 Us 6d. If it was jMO, of course it was more serious. But whether it was 6d 01 B60, the principle remained the same. He had before spoken of the matter in connection with the medical profession, and he now said?ain. what he had said before, that the value of money was not to be compared to the value of humac life. He ch&Uenged the writer, if he was present. to get up and reiterate the allegations he had made. If that person had not the course of his convictions he should c&H him a coward, and he could be no gentleman. Dr. PAINE said that had Mr Jacobs not offered the eXLJIanation he had, he would have felt m duty bound to ask him for an explanation, in. justice to the committee, for Peter Wride's offence was not that of taking a few pounds only, but he had committed forgery. Although not th< writer of the letter, although he had nothing to de with it, he was quite prepared to a iopt what wa< there act forth. Mr STONE said that he could not see that Mt Jacobs was much to blame. When he made th< statement he was under the impression that jg28 lls edwasaHthe amount. He ?Mr ?m? thought Mr Jacobs's idea was that the mon? Which had been sto en would be recovered ? suppo?ng Mr EUtss statement to be cornet wh? was to restore the life ot the poor man Me? ? Dr. Milward, who was present, wished ?0' ?A dress some observations, but w? ru?ed ?u? order by the chairman. rAUPERISM.—THE AUJ;GED DISTBt-?Q The CHAIRMAN drew the attention oft?. h?? to the fact that on Saturday last tneX wer? applicants for relief from t!ie Canton distr? <? these only nve had accepted the oner of tht hnuse, and of those five four went out on Monday only leaving one now iu the Louse. Dannc )'! year there had been 1219 people admitted to tht house, there had been 37 births, 115 deaths, and ?? ? discharged. Tramps t.) t!.e uumba ? ?- ? beenreieved last ye.?r, compared wid 3301 this year Taking everything into consider t?on. he was of opinion that the state of distress u ?ardiS was not what it was represented in nub!it ?'u workhouse test being put in operation and the number of inmatea bemgr now decreased by 43, there could be no large amount of distreat existing. The Rev ViNCEKT SAULZZ said he had relieved some 200 people during the past fortnight. Th< fact was, rather than t;o into the house and breah up their little homes, they preferred starvation. VACCINATION. Th3 CHAIRMAN read a. letter from Mr Horder in which it wa? reported that dui-in" the iMt quarter he had successfully vaccinated 90 children. all over 12 months old. On paying a lit to thf Havannah School bbtp he found thau out of < total attendance of GO boys, 19 required vaccine tion. Somo suggestions haviug been made as to ro quiring the masters of public sohools-' to get. v?ccmattou certincate befose admitting a chitd to school, tiie whole matter was referred to the coat. mittee. THE ABSCONDING RELIEVING-OFFICEB. in answer to Dr Paine and Mr Jacobs, taie Clerk said Mr Pritchard wa!! uow assisting hio. to find out the paupers, so that he would be abh to lay the list, so far as possible, wi,iep frauds had been practised, bcf-re the auditiM at an early date. Mr Wride's .carter's s:U;u-y. due at Christmas, would ofcour?be forfeited, and then there were the sureties tuthe amount ot JB200 to tall back upon, and that .here could be n< doubt ?ont being recouped. Mr BouLANGEB and other cuardtans sus-gestet oSering a reward for the ?prehension of Wnde. MrRBBS ENOCH said the public wouidonh- 1-?uRh at the board for onenng a reward a fortm?& after the bird had nown. The board, after having a statement as to Htt energetic measures taken by the police nt <;h< tirn decided upon offering ci, reiv-atd: of £2(). fo< Wride's apprehenston. There was no other business ri. public intecest.

Messrs Tweedy, Williams, and Co., the Cornish bankers, hare issued a circular an- nouncing that, in consequence of injurious rumours circulated with reference to the bank, they are compelled to suspend pay- ment for the present. The bank has done a large amount of business for upwards of a century. It is hoped some capitalist in the neighbourhood will lend a hand to smooth away the dimculty. The liabilities are over one million. It would appear from the omcial list issued by the Admiralty, that in all eleven omcers and men were killed by the explo- sion on board the Thunderer. The wounded have been taken to the palace at Ismid. The evening paper says that the victims number 32 in all.

The assembly of Bulgarian notables to meet at Tirnova on the 18 Mi instant, will consist of three classes, the nrst comprising 124 presidents of administrative and judicial counsels the second including 120 members elected by the people and the third con- sisting of Bishops, one Mufti, and one chief Rabbi. There will be in addition thirty members chosen by Prince Donkonoff, Korsakoff. Moncaai was executed on Saturday morn- ing. At midnight he made his will, leaving hia property to his wife, and at five o'clock I ? in the morning he attended mass, himself communicating. At eight o'clock Moncasi was led from the prison, and conveyed in a carriage to the scaffold, which he mounted without support, listening at the same time to the admonitions of the priests. He wast executed at 6ve minutes before nine. Two battalions of troops were drawn up around the scaffold, to maintain order amongst the immense crowd of spectators who had col- lected to witness the execution. The latest intelligence from General Roberts reports his arrival at Mooul Killar, being a march ten miles towards Khost The t people are apparently Mendly. and aU ia said to be quiet. Afghan troops are desert- ing, distrust, existing between them and Yakoob. From Ibzirpir it is reported that murders of camp followers still continue, :md that it is unsafe for unarmed parties to go ontbide the encampment. The correspondence between the Pope and the German escort respecting the re- lations cf the two po'.vera, is exciting lively interest amongst the German Catholics, who are about to meet and discuss the matter. The alarm at Constantinople still con- tin );es, and letters have been written to the Porte threatening that if certain measures are not adopted riots will break out. A German newspaper asserts that those members who are in favour of Free Trade will shortly make a demonstration against the customs and taxation policy of Prince Bismarck. It ia stated that the free trade members of the German Parliament will shortly make a demonstration against the nnancial policy of Prince Bismarck. Advices from Ezeroum state the Russians continue to despatch troops towards the Persi:n frontier. Two thousand men are employed in fortifying Kara. The com- mission for the settlement of the Greek frontier will meet at Ardar, not at Athens. The Prefect of Gerara, in Spain, has ex- pelled a Frenchman for attempting to disseminate Socialist doctrines. It is stated that the French Minister for Foreign Anairs will propose to the Cabinet to denounce the treaties of commerce with England and Belgium. A telegram from the Viceroy states that General Stewart, in his advance upon Candahar, I) as crossed tlie Gtvoyak with most of his division and that the chiefs and people blame the Ameer for his reception of the Russian Mission. Telegrams from tlie Viceroy, received at the India OfEce, state that Rcseldar Major Gholam Nakhshaband gives the following account of the Ameer's withdrawal from Cabul :—The Ameer on December 10th held a durbar of the principal Sirdars, and sum- monded the Resetdar, to whom it. was ex- plained by Sere Ali, that after Alt Mnsjid and Peiwar, the Durbar considered that no further reliance could be placed on the troops, nor any resistance be oS'ered.' The Ameer, therefore, resolved to seek Russian protection, and place the case before a European Congress, leaving Yakoob Khan in charge at Cabul with the treasure, and the remaining troops. Yakoob was released that day, and an oath administered tliat he would no as the Ameer might direct. The Ameer left Cabul on the 13th. His authority was then well nigh gone.
THE ATTEMPTED EFFACEMENT OF…
THE ATTEMPTED EFFACEMENT OF WELSH NATIONALITY. SiLRNTLY, but surely, Welsh nationality Is being enaced, and the latest evidence as to how this discreditable process Is being pursued, 13 painful in the extreme. On the motion of Sir PATRICK 0 BpiEN, the House of Com- mons gave instructions to the War Oniee to prepare a return of the number of omcers, non-commissioned oSicera, and privates, in all the regiments of the regular army, classifying them according to nationality. The return has just been presented, and It shows with com- mendable system how each regiment Is composed. There are Englishmen, Irish- men, and Scotchmen but so far as the omcial return Indicates, there is not a single Welshman In the British army. When MACAULAY's New Zealander arrives at Lon- d m Bridge, In search of materials to form a history of the British race, he will nnd no trace in the War OSce document just pub- lished, that the real, original, British carried a. musket in the British army in tlie year 1878. In the red tape region of the War Omce, a Welshman may be a being unknown, and the Welsh Fusiliers a military name of no meaning, but if this be so, we have a number of pertinent questions to ask. Are Acts of Parliament still made for England and 1Vales? or hs Wales dropped out of the Parliamentary formula ? What are the geogra.phic&l condi- tions Which make Scotland a distinct nation- ality that-are not applicable to Wales ? The Welsh nationality existed before the topo- graphical England of to-day was a Saxon colony, and before" Caledonia, bleak and wild" had the name by which she Is known la contemporary history. It Is true, that for most practical purposes, the Throe Kingdoms are one but it was the War OGiee, of all other S!,ate Departments which, a few years ago, created, a scheme for localising the regiments of the British army, as nearly as possible, to their orignal re- cruiting grounds. In England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. The feeling then was tliat a regiment was likely to be better re- cruited from whence It drew Its associations and original strength, than from the country generally; and was, further, likely to aid in innaming the war spirit, were our shores threatened with Invasion. For con- venience sake, the word "English" Is usually used when English and We!sh troops are really meant; but In a nationality-census, where the specinc contributions of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, should be brought to the surface, what good reason existed for ignoring Wales? She Is not forgotten In paying the national taxes she is expected to contribute her quota to the national army and navy; she is usua lly twitted with her Cymric tongue—yet when the numbers of the several nations in tha army are to be collected, Wales Is supposed to count for nothing. It may seem an echo of a wisely-forgotten past, but it is nevertheless true, that Welshmen believe themselves to be less than fairly treated In comparison with Scotland and Ireland. That thia Impression la not sentimental, but real, practical, and well-founded, la easily proved. Perhaps the latest incident, illustrative of what we mean, will be as enective for the purpose of tha English reader as a detailed narrative. It ia most creditable to the Home Omce that it has recently made special Inquiries into the extent of the destitution in Manchester, NewcastIe-on-Tyne, etc., presumably to do something if private benevolence had failed. While Welshmen note this with satisfaction, It is impossible on their part to forget that, thirteen or fourteen mouths ago, South Wales was swept by a practical bread-famine in humble homes, and that the Home Omce never made the slightest Inquiry, nor sought to mitigate the pressure of poverty in humble Welsh homes to the extent of a sixpence. It is a mistake on the part of English news- paper writers to suppose that Welshmen are more sensitive on the subject of nationality than Scotchmen or Irishmen. It is quite true that they are equally sensitive—partly because their struggle for independence has been misunderstood, and partly because it seems to be the uniform policy of the ad- ministrative departments of the State to ignore them. Not a single Welshman de- sires to hark back to the times of Prince LLEWELYN, because it has, happily, become an unwritten, but clearly understood, plank in the platform of Anglo-Saxon nationality, that past national wars, diSerences, and dis- putes shall be forgotten in all but the regions of dry-as-duat antlquarlanlsm. But If Scotland and Ireland have reason to be proud of their national struggles, equally so has Wales. There was brought to light a few years ago a letter from LLEWELYN, ein Llyw olaf" (the last native Prince of Wales), as noble in Its sentiments as tlie utterances and writings of the RussELLS the PvMS, and HAMFDENS, who laid the basis of the English liberty of to-day. The com- munication of Prince LLEWELYN was ad- dressed to the Lhen Archbishop of CANTER- BURY, who had urged the Welsh to come to the King's peace." What was the tone of LLEWELYX's answer? Although," said he, the kingdom of England be under the special protection of the See of Rome, and with special love regarded of the same, yet, when the Lord the PopE and tlie Court of Rome shall understand of the great damages which are done unto us by Englishmen—to wit, the articles of the peace concluded and sworn unto violated and broken, the robbing and burning of churches, the murdering of ecclesiastical persona, aa well reluaoos M secular the slaughter of women great with child, and children sucking their mothers' breasts, the destroying of hospitals and houses of religion, killing the men and women professed in holy places, and even before the altars-we hope that your fatherhood and the said Court of Rome will rather with pity lament our case, than with vigour of punishment augment our sorrow." The Welsh Prince then proceeded to give assurances that if the peace was du!y kept and observed towards him, no one in England would be molested. He tells the Archbishop, ironica.lly,who were the real disturbers of the peace in these terms Who they be which are delighted with bloodshed and war is manifestly appa- rent by their jceds and behaviour for M'e would live quietly upon our own if we might be suffered but the Englishmen coming'to our country did put all to the sword, neither sparing sex, age, or sickness, nor anything regarding churches or sacred places, the like whereof the Welshmen never committed." Hence, said LLEWELYN-, in justincation, We have put ourselves in armour, being driven thereunto by necessity, for we and our people were so oppressed, trodden under foot, spoilt, and brought to slavery by the KING'S omcers, contrary to the peace con- cluded, and against justice, more otherwise than if we were Saracens or Jews." This statement is borne out by BcpKE, in his famous speech for conciliation with the American colonies. When Prince LLEWELYN wrote the letter from which we have quoted, EuwARD I. was King of England, and though conquered (as BuRKE remarks) Wales was not looked upon as any part of the realm of England. Its old constitution, whatever that may have been, was destroyed, and no good one was substituted in its place. The care of that tract was put into the hands of lord marchers—a form of government of a very singular kind; a strange heterogeneous monster, something between hostility and government; perhaps it has a sort of resemblance, according to the modes of those times, to that of com- mander-in-chief at present [17751,to whom all civil power is granted as secondary. The manners of the Welsh people followed the genius of the Government; the people were ferocious, restive, savage, and uncultivated sometimes composed, never pacined. Wales within itself was in perpetual disorder and it kept the frontiers of England in perpetual alarm. Benefits from it to the State there were none. Wales was only known to England by incursion and invasion." BupKE then defines the con- ditions of peace—equality—as absolutely exacted by the Welsh before they became peaceful. During the state of things ex. plained "Parliament," continued BtJRKE, was not idle. They attempted to subdue the nerce spirit of the Welah by all sorts of rigorous laws. They prohibited by statute the sending of all sorts of arms into Wales they disarmed the Welsh by statute; they made an act to drag offenders from Wales into England for trial; by another act, vhere one of the parties was an Englishman, they ordained that his trial should always be by English. They made acts to restrain trade they pre- vented the Welsh from the use of fairs and markets-in short, when the Etatutc-book was not swelled as it is now, you nnd no less than 15 Acts of penal regulations on the subject of Wales." Some nineteenth century Englishmen think, write, and act as if Welshmen.in the troubled past,were a nation of slaves. If they will consult BuRKE's I works, they will discover their mistake. "Wales rid [or sat] upon this kingdom like an incubus that it was an unprofitable and oppressive burthen; and an English- man travelling in Wales could not go six yards from the high road without b''ing murdered. While this san- guinary condition of things existed the Welsh tenaciously clung to their rights, and peace came only when an English Parlia- ment conceded those rights. "Accordingly says BuRXE, "in the twenty-seventh year of Henry VIII. the course was entirely altered. With a preamble stating the entire and per- fect rights of the Crown of England, it gave to the Welsh all the rights and privileges of English subjects. A political order was I established the military power gave way to the civil; the marches were turned into counties. But that a nation sliould have a right to English liberties, and yet no share at all in the fundamental security of these liberties, the grant of their own property, seemed a thing so incongruous.that eighty years after, that is, in the thirty-hfth of that reign, a complete and not ill-pro- portioned representation by counties and boroughs was bestowed upon Wales, by Act of Parliament. From that moment, as by a charm, the tumults subsided obedience was restored peace, order, and civilisation fol- lowed in the train of liberty. When the day-star of the English constitution had arisen in Welsh hearts, all was harmony within and without." Nothing has happened since then, to warrant the slightest enace- ment of the Welsh nationality, any more than the Scotch or Irish nationality-yet that the process of effacement is going on, no one can dispute.

This showed, that he had held a master's certincate smce 1863, and that certincate was granted at Liverpool, where the examination is said to be very severe. He had joined the vessel about three weeks, and during that time the Captain said that he had been most attentive to his duties. He had a wife and three children residing in James. street, Cardiff. Prisoner said that he did not know what possessed him when he took the goods unless it was the drink, which had got the master of him. He waa extremely sorry that he had been guilty of such an offence, having sailed in vessels for several years, and not having had a single charge preferred against him. The bench exuressed their great regret that a man who ha.d held a hi?h position so long, and one to whose charge the ves- sel was entrus: d for the time, should have been guilty of so serious an offence. He was then sen. tenced to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. His wife, on hearing the sentence, was supported from the court in a fainting state, aud the prisoner was much affected.
OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENCE.
OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENCE. LONDON, SATUBDAY EVENING. ANOTHER BANK FAILURE—WHAT ITS EFFECTS WILL BE; HOW IT WAN CAUSED—THE GOODS GUARDS' STRIKjS—BANK AUDDM.NG—MR WHISTLER AND THE CRITICS. Things in London have fallen very Sat. Abso- lutely nothing is doing. There are no political movements to record. What little movement in cc-mmercial circles towards greater ease was taking place has been checked by the failure of the Cornish Bank. Very little remains to be spoken about, save the continuant of a cankering anxiety in the minds of most men who have any- thing to lose. To-day the pessimist laughs at the optimist. It is useless to quote against evil omena the large dividends declared by many of the banks. One of the most untoward results of recent disasters has been to make high dividends rather suspicious than reassuring. To meet this want of confidence, the principal half expecting a run have had several millions of hard cash ready for a raid. The sum must, of course, remain idle for several weeks. One large bank actually did sun'er a run a few dayfT ago. But its coffers were well supplied. The counter-clerks had instruc- tions to be more than usually on the alert. The money was paid out in thousands, and much more rapidly than usual. That. evening more was laid in. But next day, strangely enough, confidence seemed to return. Only the usual business was done, and the danger passed off. The lesson has not been lost, however, on the other banks, and preparation:, prejudicial to the commerce of the hour but necessary to the security of the bank, have been almost universally made. Not a whisper has been heard In London against the Cornish Bank. It was thought to be one of the safest provincial concerns. Placed In a dis- trict which, though it has suffered greatly from mining failures, for many years past has been lesa touched by the prevailing depression than perhaps any other part of England, it seemed to be out of the way of the perils which are attacking other less favourably placed institutions. Its proprietors stood very high In esteem. The Messrs Tweedie are Quakers, and were believed to be very cautious. Against Sir Frederick Williams, the late member for Truro, not a word was ever uttered, and he was a third proprietor. The surprise Intensinea the calamity. As a bank of issue, the liability of the Cornish Bank must be heavy. As a deposit bank it holds the savings and the surplus of a very large proportion of West Cornishmen. Its suspension In any case wIM be a great blow to the prosperity of the district. In fact, we may now *say that no part of England is free from suSer. iags which some authorities persist in regarding as almost non-existent; and it will need a great deal of economy and management to prevent the stress and strain from becoming terrible disaster. During troublesome times troubles accumulate. Of all times in the calender this is the hour which some workmen persist in choosing for a strike. It is with positive pleasure that one hears that the strikers on the Midland have not stopped the ordinary operations of the line; but that the gooda trains are already running again as usual. A few more strikes and we shall have a few more failures, and then, in the vulgar phrase, all the fat will be in the nre. I do not desire to be understood to take a too gloomy view of the situation. I believe that we have reached such a point that if great care is exercised, and great self- suppression, the danger may be avoided; but if we siuk much further, the acceleration will bring about a crash. One steed has been stolen, and the Scotsmen are determinded to lock safely in the rest, if Parlia- ment will only give them the key. Mr Maclaren's Bill regulating auditing for the future is just issued. It is backed by Sir Alexander Gordon, Sir George Balfour, and Mf WhitweII. It applies to Scotch banks only. It makes it necessary for auditors to sign a declara.tion to the effect that they have not only examined the balance sheets, the accounts, the vouchers, and all the papers relating to the book', but also such omcera as they think Heceasary" to gain information from. Further, they are to express an opinion that for all bad and doubtful debta there has been a su&cient allowance, and they are to be responsible for all losses made in consequence of untrue or misleading statements. Very good. But it v.'ould be poor consolation to a. shareholder in the Glasgow Bank to place the auditor in the dock, and the extent of the feeling of responsi- bility Is shewn by the fact that the late manager of the Glasgo'.v.,Bank wrote to the directors talk- ing freely of unsatisfactory" accounts, and praying to be relieved of the burden of such as he did not Mr Whistler's brochure mga.inat Mr Ruskin it out. It is a tremendou. slasher for the critics. Not Mr Ruskin only is castigated in it, but the whole critic tribe. Mr Buskin ia attacked only as chief of the critics, as the man who has lived among paintings, but is no more a competent ludge of art, therefore, than the policeman who .keeps order in the Royal Academy; as the man who talks nonsense very finely, and misleads people by giving them prejudices. He is only the chief of a class, who do harm to art by ignorance, for the only man to criticise a picture is, according to Mr Whistler, a painter. If it is any consolation to Mr Whistler, lie may like to hear that the strongest things said against his nocturnes and arrangements were said by his brother painters. Their irreverence in regard to him as a painter, while they admitted him to be a great etcher, with no rival save Mr Seymour, Haden, and Mr Ernest George, was something phenomenal. But in truth, they are the worst critics in the world these artists. There are no men who more quickly get into "sets" and cliques and coteries. Ti.ey naturally have a. fondness for the style they affect, and that fondness often breeds contempt for any other. Mr Whistler's rule is quite inad- missible. To admit it would be to admit that no man could judge whether a house was good unless he was a bricklayer, and whether a coat ntted unless he was a tailor, or whether Mr Whistler's "notes" were good reading, unless he was a compositor. I could not have written "TheNewcomes,"butI I know it to be a brilliant novel. I have a sus- picion that if I liked I could paint a nocturne, but the fact that I have never tried does not pre. vent me from saying, dogmatically, that Mr Whistler's painting is as bad as his etching is good.

R?ortsthat have hitherto appeared were con. dit?nal and subject to the terms those proposed wo ? serve &c.; but the above appointments and r?olut!onr are 6nal. It WM proposed that the ch?r wSh performed "BIodwen" at CardiS some time ago were to be communicated wit!), with a view to their performing Blod wen" a?ain at one of the concerts, with the advantage of* havin? a larger orchestra than at their last appearance. The organisation of the orchestra is to be entrusted to Mr Reea Lewis (Eos Ebrill), Cardiff. One of the concerts. will consist of miscellaneous pieces. Taking into con- sideration the large amount of correspoudence that is likely to fall upon the general secretary, the committee deemed it necessary to appoint Mr Edward Thomas (Coehfa.rf), and Mr D. L. Rod- erick (Rhydderoh) as corresponding secretaries, who will be thankful for any suggestions tending to the success of the Eisteddfod, and for subscriptions either with or without subjects accompanying them. Over -C20 were promised in the room, It was gratifying to witness such unanimity at the meetms. All seemed inspired with a spirit of co- operation, not one unpleasant hitch occurring from the commencement to the end of the meet- ing. Tho committee will meet again ait the same place on the 18th of this month.
