DESCRIPTION. "THE THIRD VOLUME" is a story lull of movamAnt. Two men, apparently of the most oppo- site-charactersand temperaments, meet in London, after many years' separation. The younger is of a fiery, restless, nomadic disposition, and, being moderately wealthy and an orphan, is oontinually on the move. He has just returned from an excur- sion in the Antipodes. Theelder man is the pink of neatness in dress and surroundings. Heliveslikean automaton. He resents the introduction into his own life of anything which is not thoroughly orthodox and conventional. His habits are of the most methodical type, and he is a pronounced, Woman hater. His young friend is in a rush of many engage- ments when he is brought to a stand by the re- ceipt of two letters, one from a woman whose name he has never heard before, and the other from his lawyer cautioning him against some statement which he believes this woman intends making. The young fellow proceeds to investigate the a air, AND all once finds himself on the brink of a shocking mystery.-which up to that time had been kept entirely concealed from him, this, being nothing less than the murder of his own fther onr twenty years before, and the trial of his mother for the crime. Overwhelmed with his feelings he takes from the lawyer's hands a bundle of papers for per. usal at home. But, who he asked himself, was the woman who had written him, and what was the statement she wished to make ?

Quoth the Doctor-" Nevermore."

DEAR SIR,—I beg to testify to the value of GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, as I think that you cannot recommend them too well. About a fortnight since I left my work- I commenced my illness by feeling starved, and a nasty stinging and shooting pain in my head a doctor was called in, and he said it was the Influenza, and I suffered for over a week of the pains in my head, and the doctor's medicine did me no good, INFLVENZA till at last the mistress of this house (I am in lodgings here) fell AND ill with the same symptoms of ill- ness till her husband advised us to GENERAL try a bottle of your Bitters. He got a Is L%D bottle, and I may tell WEAKNESS. you the first dose gave us relief. After this we got a 2s 9d bottle, and now we are all right and I am at my work now, and I have no doubt that if I had taken the Bitters at first I should have lost no work, and I owe my recovery to the beneficial > virtues of your medicine, and I beg to tender to you my sincere thanks for producing such a valuable medicine to suffering humanity I shall recommend it to all my friends, as I cannot speak too highly of it, as it is worth its veight in gold.

NEWPORT GUARDIANS. LADY MEMBERS' SERVICES RECOGNISED. CRITICISM OF THiTLOCAL GOVERN- MENT BOARD. The weekly meeting of the Newport Board of Guardians was held ab the Town-hall, on Satur- day, when Colonel Lyne, the chairman, pre- sided. There were 370 inmates in the workhouse, a decrease of OnO, and there were four deaths in the house during the week. The persons in receipt of outdoor relief numbered 2,750 increase, 243.— On the proposition of Councillor Moses Wheeler a selection committee was appointed to arrange the committees for the ensuing year.-Coloiiel Lyne, in speaking on the question, read an extract from the Echo which referred to the services which had been rendered to the Cardiff Union by the lady members of the Cardiff Board, and said that the lady members of Newport Board had rendered equally excel- lent service at the Newport Union. The whole of the lady members of the board were added to the selection committee.—The Caerleon Sohool committee recommended that the girls be retained in the schools until they are 16 years of age instead of 14asat present.—Thisrecommenda- bion, however, was referred back to the com- mittee for further consideration.—A letter was read from the Local Government Board, dis- approving the action of the board in ordering the provision of soup and bread for casual paupers passmg through the town durmg the recent seveto weather.—The Chairman spoke in strong terms as to the action of th,3 Local Government Board, and said that nothing could be more inconsistent. Early in the season the Local Government Board sent out a circular asking the board to do the best they could te cope with the groat distress, and then when the fine weather had come they disapprove of the course adopted. The provision of the soup and bread objected to had coat the ratepayers only Is 6d, whilst thr substitution of tea and coffee for the pint of water to those that used the house of refuge had only cost between £ 2 and £ 3.—The members expressed their agreement with the chairman's remarks, and one member suggested that a, vote of censure should be passed upon the Local Government Board.

CARDIFF CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. ANNUAL REPORT. The twenty-ninth annual report of the Cardiff Chamber of Commerce has been issued, which states that the returns of coal exports for the year show an increase of 1,951,423 tons over the previous year, but there has been a gradual decline in'prices. The shipping interest has not I recovered from the great depression previously experienced, notwithstanding the great increase in shipments. The relations between masters and men have been of a friendly and peaceful character. Recognising the inadequacy of the existing dock accommodation, a new dock is now being built adjacent to the Roath Dock, which will be capable of more efficiently deal- ing with large tonnage. One of the main features will be the increased depth of water in thj entrance channel, and the longer period available for docking and undocking.

LONDON BETTING. SATURDAY NIGHT. The jfwagering at Kempton Park to a great extent ruled the market in town. For the Lincoln Handicap EL Diablo was in good request, and Amandier joined Lottie's Dude at 1000 to 80. Dumbarton improved a point, but Undecided was always on offer. Among the others supported were The Owl, Xury, and Missal. For the GrandjNational Cloister was again in request, as, opening at 1000 to 15, he was supported to 11 to 2 taken and wanted. Leghorn was also in demand, winding up at 12 to 1, with 4 to 1 and 7 to 2 accepted for a place, while Æ,;op also had a backer for a place at 3 to 1. At one time 1600 to 100 was laid against Cathal, but he was finally in request at 500 to 35, while at 50 to 1 Dalkeith was again mentioned. Odds of 3 to 1 were fruitlessly offered on the Dark Blueslfor the boat race. Quotationsi LINCOLNSHIRE HANDICAP. (The straight mile.

I Ilex runs at Windsor this week. Carrick will be ons of the fittest horses started for the Lincoln Handicap. For those of my readers who like a 'long shot,' I name Pbilactery." So says a sporting writer with reference to the Grand National. In the paddock at S,-tndowt). -Jockey Don't put spurs on. I shall hardly be able to hold him as it is.—Trainer J-m Ad-me Hold him be blowed Why, he'll want another horse to pull him round the course Another strong team of English cricketers will shortly leave England for the purpose of playing several matches during the Easter holidays in Portugal. The team, which will probably starb on April 9, will make Oporto their headquarters. Mr Scully presented himself at scale to weigh for Yellow Girl for the Club Steeplechase at Kempton Park on Friday, but as the stewards' fiat had gone forth he was nob allowed to ride. Hence Yellow Girl did not run. Lismore was supported like one of Captain Bewicke's good things for the Waterloo Steeple. chase at Kempton Park on Friday, but:although he made all the running to the final obstacle be then gave way to Esher, who experienced little difficulty in following up his Sandown Park victory. Said a Pressman to Mr Joe Widger after Waterford had won his second race Why, your namesake will win the Grand National on this horse after all." This horse you mean Waterford ? replied Joe. Yes," came the answer. Waterford be biowed said the popular gentleman rider, I'll beat him on Wild Man any way." From Sydney, N.Y.W., it is announced that Paris, "a really good performer on the Australian turf," has been sold for export to England. Lord William Beresford is stated to be the purchaser. Paris is a bay gelding by Grand. niasWr-CEtione, somewhat on the small side (in fact, rather under 15.2) but very compactly built, and Ii. good mover. Much amusement was caused by the repeated refusals of the four runners for the Club Steeple- chase at Kempton Park on Friday. Paderewski refused the first fence, and fell in making a second attempt. Silverbrook gob but one fence further, and with Ciansman and Barcalwtu", ..afnD;n- ha ditch opposite the hill, THr.y AT last returned to the paddock, the race being declared void. Mr Carruthers, in whose nomination Thought- less Beauty won the Waterloo Cup, has had rare luck in connect on with the great coursing event of the year. About the best dog he ever possessad was Contango, who ran two uadecideds in the final with Joan before dividing the Waterloo Plate in Muriel's year. He won the Purse with Change in 1877, and two seasons later ran second to Misterton with Commerce. Of late years the hon. secretary to the National Coursing Club has not kept up a kennel, but he nominated Mi.«s Glendyne when that grand bitch won in 1886, aud also named the stout-hearted Grepntick when the latter as a puppy was second in 1884, whilst Honeywood, the 1880 hero, ran in his nomina- tion.

THE RATING OF MACHINEHY BILL. WHAT ABOUT THE GROUND RENTS ? At a meeting of the Cardiff Board of Guaadians on Saturday, Mr O. H. Jones presiding, the clerk read a letter from Gateshe-ad Union as to peti- tioning against the Bill to exempt machinery from rating purposes. Alderman Jacobs pro- posed that the board petition against the Biil and General Lee seconded.—Mr Thatcher Can't we go a little fnrther, and petition against the ground rents in some way or other? (Laughter, and "Order.")—Mr George Padfield moved as au amendment that the matter be referred to the assessment committee, and Councillor C. A. J. Ward seconded.—The Chair- man The Bill is called a "Rating Machinery Bill," but it is a Bill to exempt machinery from. rating.—Mr Brett: Would it affect our union to a great extent 1—The Chairman Yes.—The amendment was lost, and the board decided to petition against the Bill.

THE PROPOSED TESTIMONIAL TO DR. PARRY. MEETING AT PONTYPRIDD. On Saturday a meeting was held at Pontypridd of the committee which has in charge the pro- posed testimonial to Dr. Joseph Parry, Cardiff, in recognition of his services to music. Mr G. R. Jones (Caradog) presided, and the attendance included Mr Anthony Howells, American Consul, Cardiff, Councillor E. Thomas (Cocbfarf), Car- diff, and obber&Sittscriptions and promises amounting to over 2100 were reported, and letters were read from choir leaders from various parts of Wales heartily sympathising with the movement. The general desire seemed to be that the testimonial should take the form of a gift of money, and it was rasolved That this meeting is of opinion that the best means of pro- moting the success of the Dr. Parry testimonial is to issue collecting books throughout South Wales, to invite choirs to arrange local benefit concerts, that miscellaneous concerts be held at Cardiff and Swansea, and that the male voice choirs in South Wales be respectfully invited. to give-their collectiva services at such concerts."

GLOVE FIGHT AT SWANSEA. On Friday night at Bill Samuel's boxing saloon a ten-round glove contest took place between Hoolahan, of Swansea, and Foster, of Cardiff. Foster was the favourite, but Hoolahan seemed I all along to have the best of it. Finally both fell, and Hoolahan claimed a foul, which was allowed, and Hoolahau was declared thb victor.

He was surprised breaking into a large house in Bermondsey, but for the moment escaped. The police were, however, in hot pursuit, and when brought to bay the man drew a revolver, but Police-constable Jones pluckily closed with the ruffian, and with assistance effected a capture.

PEMBROKESHIRE. Considerable interest was manifested in the firsfr meeting of the Pembrokeshire County Council, held at Haverfordwest on Saturday, on account of the fact that the balance of parties was about equal, and a keen contest over the election of eight aldermen was therefore anticipated. Two members only were absent.—Mr J. P. Brelwer, of Narberth, was elected chairman.—Dr. Griffith, of Milford, was appointed vice-chairman.—The Chairman and VICe-Chairman having returned thanks for the compliment paid them, the appointment of eieht aldermen was considered. —The Chairman, after the votes had been counted, declared Mr Allen, Mr Roch, Mr Worthington, Mr Smedley, Captain Higgon, Lord Kensington, Mr Massey, and Mr Mat'nias duly elected.— The council next proceeded to appoint the selec- tion committee, and Mr Lewis James moved that the present committee bp reappointed, with the substitution of the name of Mr Clement Johns, cf Tenby, for that of Dr. Morrison, who was no longer a member of the council. A somewhat breezy discussion followed.-After Mr Walters had proposed two or three other names for certain committees, but without being seconded, the matter dropped, and the council shortly after adjourned.

LYDNEY AND DISTRICT FARMERS' CLUB. The annual meeting was held at the Feathers Hotel on Saturday afternoon, Mr C. Bathurst, jun. (deputy presidimt), in the chair. The attend- ance was not large. The bon. secretary's report showed that A very full programme had been carried out during the year. The total income was;C75, and there was a balance of j320 16s 9d. It was decided to fix the annual subscriptiuns of tenant farmers occupying under 50 acres at 5 farmers, occupiers, and owners being such, 10S. It was decided that annual subscriptions should be due two months after election thosn nnt having paid would have an asterisk placed against their names in the rsport following. Mr Russell James Kerr, the Hail, aad Mr Kerr, jun., the Culver House, Newnham, were elected chairman and deputy-chairman respectively; Mr S. W. Woods, Lloyds Bank, Newnham, was re-elected treasurer Mr F. Montague Lloyd, the Grange, was re-elected hon. sec. and Messrs T. Garland, Aylburton, and H. Baber, Awre, assistant secretaries. Afterwards Mr H. Howell, the Chesuuts, Thorney, Peterborough, lectured on the breeding and rearing of shire horses. Votes of thanks to the chairman, the lecturer, and the past officers terminated the proceedings.

ALLEGED LIBEL AT HAVER- FORDWEST. At Haverfordwest on Saturday—before Mr James Phillips aud Mr W. P, Ormond—Dr. J. W. Lane, recently practising at Milford Haven, was charged by Mr F. J. Bendall, solicitor, also of Milford Haven, with a criminal libel in maliciously publishing certain letters libelling him and his wife also in making certain entries in his ledger libelling his wife. The case arose out of a county-court action heard some months ago, in which Dr. Lane sued Mr Bendall for C47 for professional attendance on himself and wife. The action passed through several phases. Mr Bendall and his wife gave evidence of the receipt of the letters complained of, the contents of which did not transpire in courb, and the bench, after deliberating a short time, adjourned the cas for a fortnight. The defendant was admitted to bail, himself in L100, and a surety for a similar amount.

NEW YORK PRICES. FREETKB'S TELEGRAMS. J NEW YORK, Saturday,-On the Stock Market to-day the railway share list showed more firm- ness, and higher prices were recorded in nearly all stocks dealt in. Money easy. Sterling Exchange easier. Sugar firm. Tin dull. but 15 points up. Iron weak. Copper steady. Flour steady. Wheat opened weak, with May JÁc. lower, and further eased off on liquidations and disappointing weekly export totals, combined with foreign selling and fine weather in the West. The market, however, recovered partially afterwards, and closed steady, unchanged to c. down. Spot dull. Corn com- menced weak, and declined for awhile, but after- wardsreacted owing to talk of lighter receipts, and closed steady, unchanged to %e, up; spot 8 opened dull, but closed steady. Lard opaned weak, and declined owing to free selling by a big operator in the West, and closed weak and 12 points down spot dull. Coffee opened steady, and became generally firm on local purchasing, but closed dull, unchanged to 15 points up spot quiet. Cotton opened irregular and 7 to 12 points higher, and was strong and excited early in the session, and further advanced on active covering, due to the rise in Liverpool. The excitement subsided, however, later, and the market closed easy, 13 to 15 points up spot steady and he, dearer. The week's receipts at the ports a,re estimated at 125,000 bales. Cotton seed oil quiet prime crude, 22c. prime yellow, 26c. Petroleum-refined, nominal. Pipe Line Certificates opened firm, and afterwards ad- vanced, and closed strong at 110c. for April I option.

To CORRESPONDENTS.—In consequence of the great pressure upon our space to-day, a large number of interesting letters are held over for future issues. They will receive attention as space permits to-morrow and following days.

WELSH IN W ALES. TO THE EDITOR. ,Sip.Will you allow me, through your paper. to clear up some misunderstanding which aros4 over the discussion on using English instead oi Welsh at the conference of the Welsh Union of women on Thursday last ? What I said in the I discussion was that no blame was attached to Mrs Williams for speaking in her native tongue in her own country in the conference of a Welsh Union, but it rather lay with the women whose education had not reached such a level as enabled them to appreciate the intellectual treat which her speech' afforded." No one, for instance, would dispute the right of a German to speak the German language at a meeting In Germany. Why, then, should not Welsh people enjoy the same privilege in Wales ? I regret that any of my I £ NGLI«H sisters should have for a moment so misunderstood me as to think I intended to impute ignorance or neglect of education to them. A woman may be well educated while conversant with one language only, but no one would deny that the acquisition of another would enlarge the extent of her education. Thanking you in advance.—I am, &c., on IK T K KAI-E JENKINS. 20, Do. John A-crescent, Cardiff.

MRS ORMISTON CHANT AND PROFANITY. TO TKE EBITOR. SIK,—In reply to Mr Pik-, I, as one or the critics alluded to by him, beg to assure that gentleman that I criticised Mrs Ormiston Chant's alleged statement as it appeared in the columns of your contemporary, the only source of informa- tion I bad. I am perfectly willmg to accept Mrs Chant's modification of what she is reported to have said and yet cannot refrain from expressing an opinion that any language which bears the slightest! semblance of condonation in respect of an offence against God and society amounts to indiscretion, especially when it is uttered by one who has taken upon herself the serious responsibility of moral reformation in behalf of those who may stand in need of it. Mrs Chant may ignore Press com- ments if she chooses to do so, but as long as she poses as a public mentor, she must expect to be subject to public criticism. None of us are as good as we ought, or perhaps would like to be and the tonerue that takes authority to correct should at all times be governed by cautious fore- thought, lest in judging others itself should be found at fault.—I am, &c., Cardiff. CENSOR CANDIDUS.

ALLOCATION OF TITHE. TO THE EDITOR. Sirt,-I never, as your correspondent, Me Daniel Evans, imputes to me, said that in the allocation of tithe rural districts should be deprived of their fair share of that revenue. What I said in effect was that it would be unjust to endow sparsely-peop'ed districts at the expense, and to the disadvantage, of large towns. The proposed county division is certainly an improvement on the parochial scheme but the national basis is the only basis by which all ths people would benefit equally. Mr Daniel Evans is an original person, and he proposes to rob the dwellers in the large towns in South Wales of the equitable benefits of released national funds, because they (the people), as he says, are mainly aliens, negligent of Welsh movements and out of sympathy with Welsh aspirations. This is surely a bit of irony. If Mr Evans has had bia eyes open he must have observed that it is in the large towns of South Wales where Welsh national movements thrive most vigorously, Where dc the funds come from to support the national movements and national institutions of Wales but from the alien inhabitants of Glamorgan and Monmouth? A few years ago these alien; stumped up £ 2,000 for a Disestablishment cam- paign and a few months back, in response to the appeal of the South Wales Daily News for funds to enlighten rura! parishes on the provisions and. operation of the Parish Councils Act, and to further carry on the Disestablishment crusade, the aliens responded to the tune of £700. And yet they are accounted hostile to Welsh national movements, and it is used as an argument against the population basis of tithe allocation that these alien liberal supporters of Welsh movements would participate. This is another instance of the Wales for those who speak Welsh doctrine. I observe that the Liberal women at their con. vention in Cardiff, on Thursday, tackled the tithe allocation question, and but for the timely and spirited interposition of Miss Wynford Philipps the women were in danger, as they not infrequently are, of falling into Torv methods. Mrs Gtunt deprecated the allocation of tithe on the population basis on the ground, as she said, that agricultural counties who paid the great bulk of the money would have a small proportion, while counties like Glamorgan and Monmouth would come into a larger share than thev would be justly entitled to." But the estimable lady is altogether mistaken. The population basil would do equal justice to all. The tithe ia national property. It does not belong to a par- ticular rural districttany more than Crown landt belong to the parishes in which they are located. National property is national is its nature no matter where it arises. The tithe is a national charge upon the land, which, according to another paragraph in Mrs Gaunt's speech, belongs to the people, and the payment of tithe is but the compliance with a State claim. Funds released by the Dis- endowment of the Welsh Church must be applied nationally. The parish or county allocation scheme would rob many populous centres of an inalienable inheritance. I can understand the motives that have actuated Mr Asquith in his compromising proposal, but it cannot be allowed, for the reason that it is nationally unjust and inequitable. National property belongs to M parish. Porhaps Mrs Gaunt had not fully con- sidered the underlying principle of the question when she advocated parochial allocation befow the Women's Liberal Union on Thursday.—I am &c., L Cardiff.

THE FORTHCOMING COAL TRADE BALLOT. TO THE EDITOR. SIR,—As one interested in the future action at the coal miners of South Wales at the present critical time the question suggests itself to me- What are we going to do ? The answer that will be given by some to this would be, Wait until the ballot has been taken." That may be all very well in its place but there is something else that ought to be done. At the recent delegates' con. ference it was decided to take a ballot on or befort the 22nd inst. Now, sir, I contend that colliery meetings ought to be called to hear the report or the conference from the delegates that attended- I mean the report concerning the Wages. AU men cannot read, and even those who can read dc not at all times see the newspaper reports, and therefore have but scanty knowfcnlse of what is eroing on beyond hearing what Jack, Bill, orTom says. They may hold exaggerated or erroneous views either way. If the delegates explained the reason the ballot WAS being taken, and were careful not to impress their views upon the men, oniy asking each individual to record his vott according to his judgment, then, sir, I think we should have a fair and honest ballot with but a very few noutrals.-I AM, &c A WORKING COLLIER. Mountain Ash, March 15th, 1895.

THE TIN-PLATE TRADE. LIVERPOOL, Saturday.-Oiice more the feelinf has manifested itself that prices are bottomed, it being found impossible to beat sellers furthet down. With so many works idle this is not surprising indeel. the wonder is that values have not long ago taken an upward turn. It 11 reported from New York that plates are sening there in larger volume, although without any advance in rates. Heavy orders are in hands, but at such limits a.s to make business impossible. Whether or no buyers will be compelled tc advance these limits remains to be seen. Mean. time transactions are still taking place upon the basis of 8 10%D for fun-weight Bessemer ooke and those buyers in want of wasters are also paying at the same rate. No orders havi yet come forward from the American oil trade, which has been practically dull for some months. Russia is doing better, having bought consider- able lines lately at 9s 3d for 19^ by 14 Bessemer, and 13s 3d Siemens' cokes. As the year openi out small orders are coming to hand from the Continental and other minor markets, which are very welcome. Canada has made very little movement yet, but as direct shipment oonamences next month we may expect to hear from her shortly. Current rates are:—Bessemer cokes. C 14 by 20, 8 lO%d to 9s C 18% and 19% by 14, 9s 3d to 9., 4%D squares and odd sizes, 198 Sd basis SIEMENS' cokes, C 14 by 2C, 9S 3d C 1C by 20. 13s 3d to 138 4%D squares and odd sizes, 9s 4d basis charcoal tins, 10s and up. wards, according to quality and finish aud ternes, 17s 61 per double box, all 0.
