REVIEW OF THE BRITISH COttN TRADE. It is almost impossible to review the present J*Mon in any single phrase. If we spt-ak of the '*»ourable stnte of field work as it is reported a majority of the eastern and arable counties ?" England, we are confronted by complaints some of the most important Midland atid "•stern counties, where the saturation of the from late September to November 12th, was Incb as to render wotk impossible during the Sucleeeding four weeks. An average rainfall for United Kingdom, is in one dense a very mis- term, though it is bard to see what pre.sion science could substitute when it wants tell us, as it does in the present juncture, that rainfall for November at some seventy British j "ations being added together and then divided by leYenty gives a total almost exactly similar to that } bolting from a like process of calculation on an j of the last twenty-five years. Yet it is no j qtlibble on the part of a correspondent who i lyldicates that a rainfall of half an inch at one ltation and of five inches at another gives an of 2.75 in., inferring normal prospeots, ^herea8 the truth in such a case would be that in first district the sown wheat had not received J^ugh moisture to start its growth, and in the that the ground was far too sodden for j 80"ings to take place at all. The weekly agri- j press has a perpetually repeating task of Itching statistics, and of explaining the measure which they must be received. The balance of opinion to-day appears to favour the view that the districts where the wheat sowings have been el1 made and the plant growth well started Made some important grain-producing regions, but that they are greatly out numbered as well as elceeded in area by the districts where sowings are much behindhand, and where the growth of 10"n corn has been unhealthily affected by the eold moisture saturating the land. English wheat has fallen 8d. on the qr. in London, the average being 38s 6d against 39s 2d Per qr. So large a proportion of the samples 8bown since the end of Novamber have been damp *Qd out of condition that it is impossible to say 1 oow much of the reduction is due to weaker Markets, and how much to genuine difference in alue. Of foreign wheat arrivals last week were almost unprecedented in their heaviness, and since September let close upon 6,000,000 qrs. of foreign Vtheat have been received, witboot counting 1,654,348 qrs. received in the form of fl >ur. The Import. of wheat and flour together since harvest have been equal to our home wants, leaving farmers' deliveries as pirely extra supply. This being ISO, And the total home supply being reckoned at two- aud-a-half times what is sold at the 196 market towns, we have an increase in reserves of 2.898,990 qrs. This has to be set against the prohibition of Russian shipments, which will cut off 5,000,000 qrs. from 1892. If the loss was absolute it would Clearly outweigh the gain by over 2,000,000 qrs. but America has been shipping so freely for the last four months that it is now taken almost for granted that the United States will make up the entire deficiency on Russian shipments. We have 110 space now to deal with this assumption, but the English market would find itself io a "tight Place" at Easter if the American reserve then showed signs of failing, or of being with-held. Imported barley has recently sold slowly, but with all improvement in oats the holders of the other staple have assumed a firmer front with respect to prices. The spot value of maize is lower from a Tteek ago, and beans, peas, and lentils must all be Quoted rather cheaper since the 12th. At Wake* field, on Friday, th« decline allowed on beans and ataize was fully Is per qr.

RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION IN ST. DAVID'S ¡. DIOCESE. We have received four more letters on this subject, but as they travel over much fclie same ground as tho*e which have already appeared, we deem it inadvisable to insert them.

THE CLERGY AND THE BEAGLES. To the Editor O/THE JOURNAL. SIR, [ would not willingly re-open this corres- pondence, but I am so frequently accined both personally and by letter of being the author of some of the anonymous letters that have appeared under the above heading, that I have no alternative than to deny once for all through the medium of THE JOURNAL that such is not the case, and I must ask you to be pleased to con- firm my statement. I may further add that I have not the slightest idea who the writers are, neither do I care to know. I am, Sir, Yours truly, JOHN DAVIES. Bank House, St. Clears. Mr Davies was not the writer of any of the lettersthatappeared under theabove heading in our coin mns.-ED.

THE SMITHFIELD CLUB SHOW. To the Editor of THE JOURNAL. SIR,-I am delighted to find that the Earl of Cawdor's name has been added to the list of Vice- I Presidents of this Club, and I trust that his Lord- ship will renew his efforts as a breeder of the Black Welsh Cattle, and will help to remove some of the obstacles in the way of bringing, as they deserve, the breed to the front. Under the present regula- tions of the said show the Welsh have to contend for the breed cup with the red Polled cattle from the Eastern counties. This is an anomaly that would be as difficult to explain as for the writer in the Agricultural Gazette of the 14th inst. to explain in the face of its own statistics that the animals from the eastern counties were, as he said, far in front of the black cattle of Wales, none of whom, he added, could hold their own with the steers shown by Messrs Green and Colman. If you refer to the Agricultural Gazette, 14th Dec., Page 536, you will see the follow statement:— Red Polled Steers, not exceeding 3 years old. Age in Weight Average days. in lbs. daily gain Mr Green's. 1,037 1,549 1-49 Mr Colman's 1,014 1,466 1-44 Welsh steers, not exceeding 3 years old. Col. Platt's 790 1,302 1 64 Mr Hughes' 1,1)00 1,514 1.54 These figures prove clenrly against the above assertion and the vprdict of the judges, therefore I should like to know why the Red Polled cattle took the breed cup against their most valuable compe- titors, the Welsh ? Perhaps the jndge who repre- sented the Principality will kindly explain, and highly oblige Your obedient servant, D. P. DAVIES. Stonebridge Park.

A RADICAL PUZZLE. To the Editor of THE JOURNAL. SIR. Will you please tell me where to find a free aud independent Radical. I mean a man who has the courage of his convictions, and can vote for whom he considers the best man. I have searched in vain for such an individual, both in Carmarthen, Llanelly, and other parts of Wales. He is not to be found—he has, like the Tenby Dodo, become extinct. The present Radical is not allowed to exercise his own judgment, and vote as he lifces Oh, dear no, it is all done for him by a Three Hundred," who are really composed of some 10 to a dozi-u Dissenting Ministers, who would be better employed in doing Christ's work, visiting the sick, ,tnd pren.-hing peace and good will amongst their fellow creatures and lawyers They choose the candidate, and simply treat the poor voters as slaves. Tike the Carmarthen and Newport. (Mon) boroughs-they go to America for Major Jones to represent the good old agricultural town of Car- marthen, and to Poland, or other distant country for aCount Perfumo-and do you know why the Ridicils choose these foreigners ? Because they do not wish the poor agricultural voters to be told home truths—and they think they may get their votes by means of foreign ideas. These preachers and lawyers do notlare one d-- for their country, all they want is to fill their own bellies and pocketJ with the fat of the land. Please excuse strong language, but being a work. ing man, and a Conservative (thank God for that), I do feel that angry at seeing what fools my Radical fellowmen are in being such fools in the hands of such a lot of narrow-minded, bigoted lot as those who make up their Three Hundred.' Yours, &c., JOHN JONES.

THE LLANWRDA STATION ROAD. To the Editor of THE JOURNAL. SIR,-Kiudly allow me a small bpace to thank Lieut. General Sir J. Hills-Johnes, of Dolaucothy, for the kind interest he has taken in the above matter. Since be made a personal survey of the ground a short time ago with the district road surveyor, the water has impeded foot passage to and from the railway station no fewer than six times—much to the annoyance of pedestrians and the travelling public at large. It can now be safely argued that the above road has been inundated with water no fewer than a dozen time during the last three or four months, and unless the county council will give ear to the gallant gentleman's demand for an effectual remedy it will be a shame even to modern civilisation. Trusting, however, that a temporary if not a permanent remedy will toon be effected. Llanwrda Yours, Ac., GWBDA."

HOW To PROMOTE THE STUDY OF THEOLOGY. To the Editor of THE JOURNAL. Sip.Kii-.dly allow me a short space to tender my thanks to the writer of the above (who-ever he may be), for the most able articles and th< Bound suggestions which they contain. Were they so-ed up"n, I think the Church and the c^igv would <aiu eonsidernbly in spiritual infL'U'ice. His suggestion with regard to the systematica!, I «tudy of the Greek Testament by the clergy of each district, is rational and fe^i'tve. The clergy in c »untry par^he- are r: o apt t fall nto a statr! of co n ia>eu< aoiivitv, HU I such a plan it carried out would be i-o ihetr own and the parishioners' benefit, for their serm'ns would be more attractive, and they would as weli keep fresh what they learnt in college. As to the I writer's mild hint to the Theological faculty at Lampeter, I think it, is iju te appropriate, for I think that such a learned tatf ou^ht not to be so exclusive, hut an influence for the enlightenment and welfare of the whole district, not extending only as far as the college walls, an at present. I think it not unfair to draw comparisons here between them and the chiefs of Welsh denomina- tional colleges. Professor T. C. Edwards, late of Aberystwyth, for instance. All know what a power he is in Welsh Methodism, for one reason, because he extends his usefulness beyond the narrow limits of his college. Can the same be said of the "faculty" at Lampeter? The greater part of the people of Wales are not aware of their existence without mentioning their influ- ence This shoutd not be—because the Lam- peter staff of professors are second to none in ability, and power as is shown by the results obtained. With regard to the institution of village libraries, I think no discussion as:to the merits or demerits of this innovation is required, for it is an incalculable boon in country districts, and were they more generally formed, the country would gain considerably in an educational sense. A word of thanks is due here to the clergy of the I Church of England :for they have been the pioneers of the blessed innovation. Thanking you in anticipation for inserting this. < I am, sir, Yours faithfully, EILI R MEDI.

IT RECALLS THE BLIZZARD. In March, 18?8, ths great blizzard in America almost extinguished the city of New York. The like of it was never before Been. The snow com- pletely stopped all local traffic. Not a horse or a wheel could move. All the telegraph lines lead- iiig into the city were prostrated, and for two or three days the people of Boston and New York communicated with each other by way of London .by means of the Atlantic cables. Thus messages intended for persons three hundred miles distant were sent six thousand miles, crossing the OOSM twice. t An incident which recalls this experience to the writer's mind happened a short time ago here in England. Suppose we let the gentleman in- terested tell his own story. He says I have suffered more or less from indigestion and dyspepsia all my life. I had a bad taste in the mouth, pain after eating, a poor appetite, and sour stomach. My tongue was coated, and my mouth constantly filled with a watery fluid. No matter what I ate, however light, it disagreed with me and gave me pain. I had fulness of the chest, and pain at my side, with a miserable low, dull feeling. From time to time I consulted a doctor who gave me medicines, but they did very little good. The doctor said that the coating of my stomach was disordered, and the mucous membrane was inflamed. In 1877 I received a pamphlet from New York telling of a medicine called Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, and of the extraordinary cures it had effected, so I procured a supply, and after taking the first I felt better, and by the time I had taken four bottles more, I was completely cured, and have been in good ]••••,Ith, as regards the indigestioni.. ever since. Having studied the practice of herbs for many years, 1 was in the habit of treating people for erysipelas and other complaints, and was fre- quently consulted by people in the district, 80 after my remarkable cure, I was so impressed with the merits of Seigel's Syrup, that I procured a large supply of the medicine, and recommended it to all who were suffering, and people came from far and near for it. I may mention that on a Snnday my house was beseiged by miners from Coal Pit Heath, and others from a distance. On every hand I heard nothing but the loudest pmise and of the cures it effected, and the fame of this medicine was spread throughout the West of England with no other advertising than one party telling another of the benefit they had derived from this wonderful medicine. I wish every one to know of this, and if by publishing this- statement it will help others who may be suffering as I was, it will afford me pleasure. The letter fiom which the foregoing is an extract is signed Moses Godwin, Old Sodbury (Sodbury), Glos., and is dated April 9th, 1891. He is a farmer. The reader will notice that while the head- quarters for the sale of Mother Seigel's Syrup is universally known to be in London, by a strange cbance Mr. Godwin's first information concerning it came from America, three thousand miles away, which recalls the incident of the American blizzard above narrated, and also shows that the fame and usefulness of this medicine extends to all oivilised countries. Mr. Benjamin Edgerton, grocer and provision dealer, Plat Lane, Whixall, Whitchurch, Salop, says: While living with Mr. Roberts, Fens Wood Farm, I first began to feel a dull heavy weight at my side, and noticed a bad taste in the mouth with foul stomach and uncomfortable feeling after eat- ing. I had no appetite, and when I sat down to the table I could not touch the food. I had a good deal of pain and noise in the head, and could not sleep for lit. I was not fit for heavy work, and could only do light jobs about the farm. After cutting a hedge I would go quite faint, and had to sit down, and felt so much depressed I could have cried. Having always been such a strong man I took it badly to be reduced to such a weak state. I took all kinds of physic and saw a doctor, but his medicine only eased me for a bit, and then I was worse than before. I went on in this way for over a year, when a servant that came to live at Mr. Roberts told me of a medicine called Mother Seigel's Syrup. She had heard a gentleman talking about it in the railway oarriage, and he praised it so much that I thought I would try it. After I had taken two bottles my food did me good, and I gained strength, and by persevering with the syrup I soon got as strong as ever, and have never ailed anything since."

LLANGELER. PRESENTATION. Last Friday evening, the National Schoolroom was crowded with an ippreciative and' enthusiastic audience, the occasion being a presentation to Mr Rice Jones, Penygraig, for forty years the leader of the Llangeler Church Choir. The presentation took the form of an ornamental address on vellum executed in a really artistic style by Mr J. F. Lloyd, of Carmarthen, and a purse of gold* Previous to the presentation, Mr J. Pughe Davies gave a magic lantern entertainment which was much appreciated by the audience. The Rev. John Williams, vicar of the parish, presided in his usually able and inimitable manner. He bore strong testimony to the valuable service rendered by Mr Rice Jones to Llangeler Church for so long a period, and said that the high position which their choir had attained was, in the main, due to the untiring zeal and efforts of Mr Jones. Mr Thomas Williams, Llwynybrain, also spoke in eulogistic terms of the veteran choir leader. Miss Thomas, the Vicarage, and Miss Davies, Gilfacb, as hon. secretary and treasurer of the testimonial fund, then presented the address, which was greatly admired, and the purse of gold to Mr Jones amid loud cheering. Ou the proposition of the Vicar the hearty thanks of the meeting were enthusiastically given to the Lord Lieutenant of Cardiganshire for his kindness in lending his excellent magic lantern for their entertainment, and to Mr Pughe Davies for exhibiting the same.

THE UNEMPLOYED IN KAST LONDON —A; » inne when much thought is being given to this matter, a practical suggestion may be of service.
