THE WELSH COAL TRADE. Our Pontypridd reporter writes :—I learn that Messrs Nixon and Company intend sinking at navigation about 800 yards or thereabouts from the Junction HoteL In view of the colliery operations of which Navigation is to be the centre, this village is likely in the course of time.and that not very far distant, to become ajarge and popu- lous mining district. Operations are also shortly to be undertaken with the view of sinking to the steam coal measures near the Darran Ddu Old Pit. The locus in quo will be contiguous to the quarry to overlook the liue between the gate that leads to the Pontypridd reservoir and the abandoned workings. The success of the Morgan safety iamp is pronounced. The inventor is a local artiza.n, of strong mechanical beut and application.

GLASGOW IRON TRADE. GLASGOW, Friday. There Is comparatively little animation i.. the Scotch ir.ui trade. During the week tha warrants market has been flit, speculators showing very little disposition to oper ate. A number of smaU accounts hava been closed by bears, but on the other hand there have been som3 old warrants disposed of by holders who must have made very considerable losses upon them. The fluctuations in the warrant mar- ket were not very extensive in the course of the week, bm the closing price this afternoon showed a decrease of 91 a ton compared with that of Friday last. For makers' iron the demand has been unsatisfactory, and the ship- ments of Scotch pig-iron this week have again been small. The prices of the special brands are not maintained; indeed, purchases are made at 6d to 9d leas money than a week ago. From abroad the demand is quiet, and the prospect for succeeding weeks is not at all encouraging. The question of a probable reduction of output is still engaging attention, and one pig-iron-making company has just resolved to stop the manufacture altogether tor a few months in c"nsequ''nce of their specula- tions being aitogethar unprofitable. This will reduce the furnaces blowing to 95, and curtail the output permanently to about 400 tons per week. Reports a& to two other companies stopping a large proportion of their furnaces are, to say the least, premature. The stock of pigs in Connal and Co.'s Glasgow stores exhibit only the small reduc- tion for the week of 57 tons, the aggregate stock to-day being 579,788 tons. The malleable trade remains quiet. There is a fair amount of work in 'ome of the foundries. The coil tride is again less active.

BRISTOL MUSICAL FESTIVAL SOCIETT'S GRAKD CONCERTS.—Our musical readers will heartily welcome the announcement in our advertising columns of the executive of the Bristol Musical Festival Society that they intend giving, at the large (Jolston-hall, Bristol, two grand concerts on Friday evening, December 5th, and Saturday morning, December 6th, on the complete scale of the great triennial festival meetings, but at prices more within the reach of many who delight in wO'h-class masic. Mr Chas. Halle wiH be the conductor, and in addition to his band of 75 per- formers, including some of the best known instrumentalists of the day, and the festival choir of 350 voices, the committee have engaged Madame VaUeria, whose brilliant vocalisation and charm of style recently delighted a Bristol audience Miss Damian, the accomplished con- tralto, who made such a profound impression at the Leeds Festival last year; Mr Edward Lloyd, Mr Joseph Maas, and Mr Chas. Santley. Such a combination of eminent artiata will alone be sufficient to command atten- tion in all musical circlea in the West of England, but still more interest will attach to the music selected, when amongst the worka to be per- formed on Friday is the Stabat Mater by Anton Dvorak, the Bohemian composer, who ia said to have laboured on for ten years without hearing a note of his own music, and has now made a sudden appearance amongst the great composers of his time. His Stabat Mater," conducted by himself at the recent Worcester Festival, won universal attention, and its new and original treatment displayed such masterly interpretative power, and such quickening sensa- tive expression, .that the work won unqualified praiae. Goetz's delightful setting of the plaintive By the waters of Babylon," appears m the Saturday's programme, together with Haydn's Creation.

In an early pirt of the game one of the Rangers was injured, and the club bad to play one man short t'nr the rest of the gane. For the town team, George Morgan's kickirg was good while the running of \V. Powell (captain). M. Watkins, and W. Monnington worked vcU for their side. For the Rangers, the play of Peachey, Hyam, and Adamson was very noticeable. The manner in which Adamson ran the ball from near the Town goal to the other en<L and succeeded in kicking an excellent goal frou the ground, was much applauded.

oV U 1'l'8HIP nl LETTER. THE ADVENTURES <F A BRISTOL .TRADE, SNlkN. A certain Bristol tradesmat being anxious to take unto himself a partner f'' life, inserted in a newspaper an advertisementfor a housekeeper, with a view of ultimately n'.rrying tha person taking the situation. This advertisement was brought to the notice of a nu'emaid in the ser- vice of an aristocratic fami!y3siding in a village only a few miles from Tunbiige, who, although occupying this humMe positA), is well educated, well Connected, and of possessing appear- ance and ladylike manners. It is stated that the young lady, after comlting the cook, and having received the sal advice of that im- portant personage, repliedi the advertisement, and subsequently a lo correspondence took place between the nu 'aid and the Bristol tradesman. The idea. v tiering his aervica as housekeeper seems to ha )een abandoned, but they continue j to writer- ch others as lovers, without having met. The %desman being of a pious turn of mind, sent the ycung lady, in addition to love letters '.cbed in the most endearing terms, vario acts and texts of Scripture. The :ao exchanged photographs. At length he fair damsel wished to bring matters o a climax, and she wrote to her admire asking him to come to the village in which !e resided and sec her. This he declined to for the sufficient reason that on a previous occton when he left his home for a short time he is robbed of a. con- siderable amount of propcy. He suggested, however, that the young lad should proceed to Bristol to meet him, a-nchat they should be married on the day after he arrival. She con- seated to go, and after the bos had been duly published, she proceeded on:r joumev, reaching Bristol late at night. The moroua tradesman, together with two frUs, was at the station to meet her, but ife of his surprise when the young lady, afterarefuUy surveying him from top to toe, cly remarked that "She really could not thuuf marrying a man f like him.' Thia sudden detamation may easily be accounted for bv the factat while the young lady is only just over 20 ye; of age, the trades- man has the appearance of ng between 40 and 50. Nothing daunted by thoung lady's candid avowa), however, the tradeta pressed her to proceed to his residence anonsider the matter, and as his intentions we:evident!y strictly honourable, she consentec She waa com- fortably provided far, buhe next morning found her as nrm iij heresoJve a.? ever. Further persuasion induce her to proceed with him to the place of fihip where he bad arranged for the marriage take place, and she even allowed herself to be leo the altar. The marriage ceremony was conuced, and all went well until the clerKyman Ask;he u'.mal question, when quite a commotion w caused by tho:e assembled in the building the young lady promptly answering "Mos:cidedlyno." The tradesman appealed to her inswer in the amr- mative, and the elergyma-id all be could to prevent further unpleasantn' but all to no pur- pose. The strange courts, thus came to an abrupt termination, and thaolute young lady, bidding farewell to the trad&n and his friends, took ths train back to her Rah home.

THE CANTATRIOE'S EARLY CAREER. There has just been published a well written translation of Louise Lauw's interesting book, Fourteen Years with Adeline Patti." From its sparkling and interesting pages we extract, the following items of more than ordinary interest, which wiM be read with avidity by all those who have heard or seen tbo lady of Craig-y-nos. We begin our extracts with the following respecting her (now divorced) husband:— THE MARQUIS DE CAUX. Before the close of the Parisian season, says the writer, Adelina was invited to take part in a, royal concert. Amongst the many persons of high rank and noble birth who contended for the honour of an introduction to tha artist, appeared the Marquis de Caux, the Empress Eugenie's equerry. Although the marquis seemed to her a. polished courier, and a perfect gentleman both In manner and appearance, still Adelina did not care for him was yet too much a child of nature to be captivated by the gallantries of the fashion- able world. Even her brother-in-law found it very dinicult to persuade her to accept invitations to the best houses. She lived and cared only for the theatre, which she constantly visited, and gave, as a reason torso doing, 'That peopleshould learn from others, especially how nQt to sing. It was some considerable time before AdeIIna Patti again met the Marquis de Caux. This was at Paris, where Patti occupied the splendid man- sion of Madame Grisi, and where, in company with the Marquis Ea.rm St. Armand, the Viscomto Daru, and Adelina's father, a pleasant time was spent. Here ?he met CHRISTINE ILSSO. One day, when we were alone, Madame Rossini and a, young lady were announced. Hastening towards Adelina, the former ex- claimed, Here is someone anxious to make your acquaintance And, to Patti's surprise and de- light, sha recognised in the stranger Chris- tine Nilason, whom sin greeted cordi- ally, and who seemed rather shy as she met the great pnmi. donna, for the first time face to face. Soon, however, Adelina's simple and unaifected manner overcame Nilsson's timidity, and she related the charming episode of *her childhood. 'My parents,' she began,'were simple Swedish peasant-folk, who could scarcely provide for their own and their children's daily bread. We had a sad struggle in our youth, fot we were obliged to use our poor musical talents as a means of exciting people's generosity, and thus aiding our parents. 1 had learnt a. few tunes on the violin, and one of my brothers was also a. little street musician. We wandered through the streets of our native town, displaying our talents, and bringing the money v/e earned home to our parents. Whenever our mother saw a stranger approach our place, she drove us out into the street, and we were forced to persecute the new- comer with our musical performance, until, to get rid of us, ho bestowed something upon us. My good fortune, some ye.u's later, brought me into contact with some beneficent people, who when they heard my voice, undertook most generously o have it cultivated. They brought me to Paris and placed me in one of the best schools, where I was taught by the singing master, Monsieur Wartel. Now I am happy, fo'' I can already earn 3,000 francs a month, and thus, in a measure, indemnify my benefactors for all they have done for me." ";After that Srst meeting there bstween the two great artists a. mutual friendship, and, for a long time, the Swedish Nightingale* never felt so much at home as in Adeline's house." Soon after this Ado!ina had a. new experience, which for a. time absorbed her whole attention and caused her apparently to forego the constant "race after artistic and material success." At the house of an Italian in London, which became to the Patti fami!y a. second home, Adeline met; a ynung Milanese merchant, a Signer M——— V\ him she fell desperately in love, and after somj natural hesitation, Papa. Patti agreed to their betrothal. M——' would have married forthwith, and Adelina was by means unwilling to gratify HER FIRST SWEETHEART. But as he -was merely an accountant Papa. Patti opposed his wishes in a. very decided man- ner. He spoke out his mind, and proved to his son-in-law Mt spe, nrst, that he had not the wherewithal to .support a wife properly, and that in the second place Adelina. had not yet earned a. suScient capital to make it a. matter of indifference whether her husband's business was lucrative or otherwise. The lovers had to give way to the father's indexible determination, mean- while contenting themselves with meeting at 'papa's' house twice a. week, and making love to their hearts' content. But Adelina. was to learn by experience before the end of the season, the futility of ideal imaginings. What does the mayor's sly niece, Marie, sing in Lortzig's charm- ing opera, of the Emperor and the Carpenter ?' Jealousy is torture, and woe to him who falls a victim to it.' "Adelina, aa usual, enjoyed great triumphs. Whilst the public In their enthusiasm were almost beside themselves, Adelina's lover sat on red-hot coals, his eyes darting murderous looks on all sides and when he perceived the faces ot any of Adelina's adorers red with excitement, he would have liked, if good breeding had permitted it, to spring at their throats and throttle them. But the public were not the only people whose admira- tion enraged this young OMnIIo. He poured out the torrent of his jealousy upon the actors who co- operated with Adelina. When old Ronconi, who good-natured ty assumed tbo part of JU(tMe<(o in Don Juan,' although he no longer cared for love on or on the stage, placed his arm round Zcrlina's waist, our lover grew almost mad. And when the great Adonis-Uko Mario kissed his Julùt as jRoNMo, the jealous man seemed to seek eagerly in his pocket for a bomb wherewith to annihilate his supposed rival. Tortured incessantly by jealousy, the young man at last declared to Signer Patti that becould not wait any longer, and must marry at once. The wild behaviour of his daughter's lover caused Papa Patti to fear that in marrying him, Adelina'a future life would not be strewn with roses. A violent altercation took place between _8<i<;efMdIRf ;W grief, and wept bitterly when eheTtieard of the sudden ending of her love-idyll. Her woman's pride was deeply wounded at the idea that the man she ha.d honoured with her affection cou!d thus leave her. She began to doubt th3 sincerity of his love, and she never again mentioned hia name."

CELEBRATION OF MDME. PATTI'S DE- BUT IN NEW YORK. The twenty-nvo anniversary of Mdme. Patti's début in opera, was celebrated on Wednesday night at the New York Academy of Music, the place where she nrst appeared in 1859. A large and brilliant audience present. The opera was Martha. and at the close the members of the company assembled on either side of the stage, and in the centre a. military band appeared and played a march composed by Mdme. Patti ten years ago. At the back of the stage was a col- lection of gas jets to form an eagle over the in- scription, "Patti, 1859-1884." The march was played twice amid great cheering by the audience. Mdme..Patti said a few words of thanks. A procession was then formed with the band ahead, followed by Mdme. Patti in a, carriage drawn by four white horses, and with an escort of the Academy directors, and about 2,000 persons. They proceeded to Windsor Hotel, where Mdme. Patti was serenaded. A dinner was subsequently given.

SMOKING CARRIAGES. TO THE EDITOR. SiR,—Kindly allow me to make a. remark or two upon "Noa-Smokers'" complaint in your issue of yesterday. There is some truth in his re- marks, a.nd a. great deal of exaggeration. It is true that smoking goes on in some carriages Dot intended for the purpose, and that it is a nuisance; but that it leads to the list of evils given by your correspondent is sheer nonsense, as any ordinary reader will admit. He also says that the guards are stone-blind to the practice. Now they are not so stone-blind as he supposes. It is a fact the smoking goes on, not when the trains are at the stations, but when they are travelling between them a.nd when the station is reached the pipes are concealed, so if the guards are stone-blind it is because they have not an opportunity of seeing. lue railway company's bye laws on this matter are not intended to prevent a moral evil, but to protect the comfort of pas.scHgers and it is, there- fore, as much the duty of the public to assist in carrying out those bye laws as it is of the railway companies to frame them. 1 hope when Non-Smoker'' is annoyed again he will apply to the sympathies of his fellow- passengers, and if he does not succeed in that, ho may apply to the guard at the next station if he happens to find one possessed of the organ of s)ght.—I am, &c., ° Nov. 28th, 1884.

'Ih? FP"? T.?Kbks to "Nc.r-?tEc.kci" for br?.ig t,i.c?.tterbef?r- ?b?.r-'h'?. Ip '3? ??n,? In railway carriages is become .v< nuisance. I do not blame the guards so much, because they have very little power in the matter. But I find fault with the higher authorities for not taking a case up oow and then, when a com- plaint is made to them. Over two months ago I was travelling on tho Brecon and Mertbyr line, when myself, two other respectable men, and a lady had the misfortune to have two young fel- lows, who were a little in beer, as fellow-travel- lers. Presently they began to smoke, when I gave them to understand it waa not a smoking carriage but smoke they did until we got to the next station. When I told the station master of what took place, I asked him to take their names and addresses, which ho did and sent the communication to the proper quarter, and in addition I send a letter as well stating the case, and also saying that I waa prepared to appear as witness free of charge. I duly received the usual reply that it should have attention. Now, Mr Editor, are railway companies liable to be prosecuted for allowing their carriages to be full oi smoke to the annoyance of many of their passengers ?—I am, &c., C. R.

TO THE EDITOR. SiR,—Please allow me to echo the sentiments of "Non-Smoker" in your Msuo ot yesterday, fe smoking carriages. Smoking in carriages not provided for that purpose, among people who object to it, and especially ladles, ie very objec- tionable, and should be remedied aa far as pos- sible. But what a pity that tha smoking public have not been aware of the trtdn o< evils to which smoking is a preliminary t In the first dace, there is the cough; thia leads to the headache for days then after tha headache haa subsided, the sick feeling for weeks takeaita place; and after the sick feeling has disappeared, the loaa of appetite for months sets in, Mjghttt not œ well to add that after the appetite baa' rotomed, a ReMral decay of the system goes on for years, all of which evils are to be traced to- the inhaling of a few puffs of tbe obnoxiounveed: BeboM, how great matters a little Bre kindleth f'—I am, &c., Tenartb, Nov. MODERATION.

THE WILLIAMS (PANTYCELYN) MEMO- RIAL SHALL IT BE NATIONAL OR DENOMINATIONAL ? TO THE EDITOR. Sin,—The above question will doubtless have presented itself to many Welshmen of every denomination. There is no name which is more of a household word in Wales than that of the Welsh Psalmist, Williams, of Pantycelyn, and on more -than one occasion have the thoughts of patriotic Welshmen turned to the desirability of having some suitable memorial of the sweet singer of Wales. There appears to be at last some hope of this being effected, as there are two —I hope separate-movements now on foot for attaining this object. The first of thes.: movements is that inaugu- rated by the Rev. T. Levi, Aberystwith, and T. Roberts, Abergele, who have issued a circular letter to the We!sh pre?s calling attention to the matter, and inviting subscriptions towards raising some suitable national memorial to Williams, of Pantyceiyn. The circular very properly promises that the form the memorial shdi take will be left to the decision of the subscribers themselves. The second of these movements is of a strictly denominational character. A warm-hearted Methodist from Briton Ferry purchased at a recent sale at Llandovery (where the Psalmist's grave lies) a plot of land, which is intended to be utilised for the purpose of erecting a memorial. It seems, further, that at a meeting of leading Methodists, held some time since at Swansea, it was:suggested that the memormt should take the form of a memorial chapel. The Cztlvinistic Methodist body in Carmarthenshire, at a monthly meeting held a.t Llandilo, adopted the suggestion, and resolved that a Williams (Pantyce!yn) Memo- rial Chpel ..llOUld be erectc1 at at an estimated ost of JE!2,000. This chapel was intended to be in connection with, and presum- ably forthe sake of founding an English Calvinistic Church at LIandovery. This movement, it will be seen, is strictly a denominational one. Unfortunately many patriotic Welshmen who would be uleased to subscribe towards a. suitable national memorial have assumed—I trust entirely without cause—that there is a necessary con- nection between the two movements. They naturally object to the current of national patriot- ism being turned to denominational purposes. They admit that as a preacher Williams, of Pantycelyn, laboured chieny in connection with the Methodist body, and that that body have, therefore, every right to subscribe among them- selves for a. denominational memorial. At the same time they cannot but be aware that Mr Levi's circular invited subscriptions for a national memorial to the national ps.thmsc. Williams, of Pantyceiyn's hymns are not those of any denomi- nation, and the Methodists can lay no claim to property or exclusive interest in them than any other denomination of Welsh Christians. Nothing is more likely to mihta.te against the success of both these praisev.'orthy movements than the present uncertainty as to their connec- tion with each other. Should the idea once be generally fostered that there is any possibility of the fund to which Mr Levi invites subscriptions being devoted to be the nucleus of or a help to the fund for erecting an English Methodist chapel, it g'oes without saying that the springs of patriotic subscriptions for the memorial as a national movement vrould be at once dried up, and that none but the most zealous Methodists would subscribe towards a denominational chauel in the vain hopa of Its being considered as a national memorial. Apart from the injustice of, such a course, its absurdity is too evident to need dilation upon. If the memorial (Metho-list) chapel is to have a chance of being built, and if Mr Levi's fund for a national memorial is to have a chance of suc- ceeding, it is evidently of the highest importance that the leading spirits or each of the two move- ments should make it a? widely known as possible that there is not, and that there will not, be any connection between the two funds. Is it too much to ask that Mr Levi on the one hand, and say Mr Thomas of Llandovery, or any cther representative Methodist connected with the chapel movement, who can speak with autho- rity, on the other hand, should, through the columns of the South Wals Daily News, make a plain and forma! public statement on the matter. —I am, &c., ONE READY TO SUBSCRIBE.

PROPOSED SANITARY SCHEME FOR PONTYPRIDD AND THH RHONDDA. TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—To-day Mr Law visited the Rhondda and Clydach Vaileys for the purpose of making his report to the ratepayers of both districts on the proposed sanitary scheme. He was accompanied by the Rev..D. W. WilIiams.Fairneld, and Mr H. Grover, clerk to the Pontypridd Urban Sanitary Board. On an important matter like this, and as a heavy ratepayer, may I ask where on earth wero the members of the Ystradfodwog Urban Board or their clerk ? Is it possible that they have been at the Newport Cattle Show instead of attending to the duties entrusted to them by the public.—I am, &c., A RHONDDA BOY. Nov. 27.

LORD Wli\'DSOR'S WORCES- TERSHIRE TENANTS. PRESENTATION OF AN ADDRESS. A deputation from the tenantry on the Worces- tershire estate waited upon Lord and Lfidy Wind- sor, at HeweII, on Tuesday last for the purpose of presenting an address of congratulation upon the birth of a son and heir to the title and estates. Lord Windsor, in responding, thanked them on behalf of Lady Windsor and himself most cordi- ally for the address. He said they might believe that their presence there that afternoon afforded him only an additional proof of the kind feeling they had shown towards him on many occa- sions. In the birth of a soa and heir, both Lady Windsor and himself had something more to live for, and he hoped to bring up his son in such a manner that he might some day merit the good feeling shown towards himself on that occasion, and he trusted that those who were present might live to witness it. He felt that the event which had taken place was another link in the chain which bound him and his tenants together. For his own part, he did not take a gloomy view of the future, although agriculture at the present time was not in a prosperous state, for as long as the interests of himself and his tenants were identical, be felt assured that, notwithstanding the efforts of Radical agitators, it would take many years to separate them.

CARDIFF AND NEWPORT TEAMS. TO THE EDFDR. Srn,—Just a. few words in r;p)y to One of the Crowd," whose letter Ippean in your paper to- dfty. I think if he will referee the report of the game he will iind that my cdutention in respect to the game is fully in accordant with my views, as stated in my letter and, as)e says, should the same teams meet aa-a:n, t,hit Newport will not score a point, .to back up this conceit, if the gentleman will give you tug name, &c., I will stake J610 against ;85, or I vill take even that Newport be:its.-I am, &c., L.

I can &ss-tro him that I am not, as my letter was conceit and written, not in a spirit of put about-ed-ness," but as an e&'rt to try and effect a remdy for the present state of things. He is ra.thcrrisky too in putting me down as "cue of the club" as I said noth'ng in my last even hinting;' that I was. I will not, however. say that I am not That part of his epistle, though, does not comeup to the statement where be says Newport pay superior, passing neater, forwards a long way niead." Why, how- ever did the nudiff men mar.a to live ou the field, leave alone do the scorug they did ? As to the skittle bowling, I take it that he means that the Newport men were he skittles. As an old football player, I will argte with your corre- spondent or any one else th$ a try is of equal value to a dropped goal, inking the score in Cardiff's favour as 3 to 1. I do not in any way wish t; detract any merit from Gould's kick when I say't w&s as much luck as anything else. fWhile here! may.without pre- judice, give the Newport men one and all, credit for the good stand they made (.gainst (as acknow- ledged on all sides) a far and way superior team. The drawback is, that the gate should be lost to the club and the town in thence of an urgently needed reform, and I again &II upon the Cardiff Football Club to take the inititiv. in the matter without delay.—I am, &c., C.

THE CARDIFF ART EXHIBITKN. A meeting of the nnance c<mmIH.eo in connec- tion with the late Cardiff FitB Art Exhibition was held at the Town-hall ot Friday evening', under the presidency of Mr Concilia D. J ouee, the chairman of the commitep. No balance sheet had yet been issued, an¡,'the committee, it is stated, felt themselves placed in a rather dimcult position. A nun-Per of gentlemen had become guarantors for oar.m sums of money in the event of the expenditure exceeding the receipt! The secretary <ow reported that several gentlemen, whose proiises amounted to between JB200 and j3500, h-d declined to fulfil them, on the ground that by a doing they would bacome liable for other iebts than those now contracted. An exbiMor named Davies, who had a stall for the sale of trinkets, works of art, &c., and whose goods, he contended, had been illegally detained by the committee for rent, M commenced pro- ceedings against the commitee for the loss of sale in consequence of tho detTition. Mr Davies claimed JB500. Writs had ben served on every member, who had thereby ben made a party to the suit, which will be heard t th Glamorganshire assizes in February. This ation the committee will defend, and the costs invlved are uncertain. The fear of loss from this action prevents the guarantors from paying, it is sid, their promised amount, because some, we unrstand, have been advised by ao doing they wit become partnera with the committee, and lle for costa in the result of the decision being ?mmittao wUi m&at i at a future day.

TO THE EDITOR. blR,—i feltlnghty amused to-day on readin? in your valuable paper the.complnt made by a non- smoker of the conduct of the guards tof the TaS Vale Railway and Great Western Railway Com- panies. I have travelled a great dea! on the Great Western Railway, and can assert that the guards are very obliging and careful, and will not allow smoking in a carriage if it is noticed by them, or their attention drawn to the matter by any ona offended. The non-smoker seems to me to be very delicate or affected that a little smoke should make, him cough for boars, give him headache for days, make him sick for weeks, and take away hia appetite for months. When tra veiling in a non-smoking carriage again, and nnd smoking there, I would advise Non- smoker to call the attention of tbe guard to the same, and if no means be taken to suppress it, it. to a higher authority, and he will I

¡. TO THE EDITOR, SlB,—With your permission, a n reply to Non-Smoker's" letter, which apng&red in your last Thursday's issue. Hia strictures against the Great Western Railway and Taff Vale Railway servants are neither fair nor just. Recently I ?? a, person summarily ejected from a. Ta.if Vale Railway carriage for a. violation of tne bye-laws with respect to smoking. Several other case? have also come under my notice where the guards in question have exercised the greatest vigilance in this matter, notwithstanding the fact that smoking in non-smoking compartments does exist to a considerable extent. The offenders are mostly persons who smoke during the interval taken by the train in passing from one station to another- a time when it is utterly impossible for a railway guard to take cognizance of the offence. The public have a, remedy in their hands. If Non- smoker" and others who object to the weed, whose scent the fair annoys," would but cour- teously draw the attention of guards to this evil whenever they observe it secretly practised in carriages not set apart for the purpose, I feel sure they would soon have their grievance re- dressed.—I am, &c., A PASSENGER.

THE PEOPLE AND THK PEERS.-A SUG- GESTION. TO THE EDITOR. Sip;—The delegate meeting of the People's League, on Tuesday, afforded evidence that the agitation for the abolition of the hereditary cham- ber will not fail for lack of vigorous direction. Will you permit me to suggest, as a means of securing the funds and moral sup- port needful to attain succe ss, the inauguration of a national penny subscription fund ? I could say much in support of this proposal, but I will con- tent myself with recalling to your readers' me- mory the effect wrought by means of O'ConneIl's Catholic Rent." If the pence of Irish peasants wrung Catholic Emancipation from the peers in 1829, ia it unreasonable to suppose that a similar movement extending over the three kingdoms could, in these years of their decrepitude, force the pers to finally cave in ?"—I am, &c., ERNEST PARKE. 105, CamberweII-grove, London, S.E.
