LONDON LETTER.
LONDON LETTER. !.Y THK MAN" IN THE GALLERY.) W'jstminjtkb, Sunday Night. ( "p to a late hour on Friday, Sir Henry hopes of being able to hold his appointment at Alde-rshot and his ,¡n in tile House of Commons concurrently. The llorse l; lI1r" s were, however, opposed 10 the arrangement. The Duke of Cambridge is understood to have pointedout the obvious impracticability of an officer holding, high command when he would be absent from his duties five days a week. His lioyal Highness, therefore, made it clear that if Sir Henry llawlock-Allan continued to sit for Sundt'r- land he must relinquish his brigadt- com- mand, Sir Henry preferred to leave Parlia- ment rather thai? go upon the retired list f :il):;kt,ht'; ¡:ll\Inlilt, I t,r a shnrt time on Friday evening, and last ght he delivered a "a"lidory address to his eontih1t'nt8 at Sunderland.

As fai- as consistent with safety the noble earl's wishes were obeyed, but when his medical attendant found t h" t his patient had takiHi advantage if his absence to gel up he put his tout ,10\11, aud the illus- trious patient has 1'f'l1 obliged to yield.

A Heater's" telegram from Paris dated April 2, states that a telegram received there from Con- stantino this morning announces that a marauding Tunisian tribe has attacked a French military post, killing a corporal and three of the men in charge of it.

I Ilt GLADSTONE'S STATEMENT.
Ilt GLADSTONE'S STATEMENT. I Tho "rrss A?o(?iation '? learns that Mr. Glad- st..?'s financial t.tt-,?t to-day (Monday) will, in all probability, include a largo reduction, if not I the total removal, of the Income-tax, it being pro- posed that the resulting deficit shall be made up by an increase of the legacy duty on personal pro- perty descending directly or willed to sons or daughters, from 1 per cent, the present duty, to 4 per cent. This calculation would point to the possible total removal of the Income tax. There is reason to believe that Mr. Gladstone will be able to announce a general increase of revenue, suffi- cient during the coming financial year to justify the equafcution of the duties upon the Spanish wineo and a slight reduction in that upon tabacco.

ICARDIFF BOARD OF GUARDIANS.
I CARDIFF BOARD OF GUARDIANS. The usual weekly meeting 01 the board ot guardians of the Cardiff L'ni.ai was held at iW workhouse,Cardiff, on Saturday, Dr.Paine in the chair, Tlie mater of the house reported that during the week there had been 27 admi!\<ion, 28 discharges, and six deaths, leaviug 409 in the house, an increase on the corresponding week of last rear. The number of v?gr?nt?. relieved was 61, 68 in the k of the preceding ;:Ig'\I\JI: \èled ïg the cheese sent by the ?nti-?tor, and 6 ud h" wai of opinion that it was not. equal to the sample. Dr. Paine said this was r.?Uy a Mrioua ni?tt?r, be- cause they had before had to complain that pro- visions supplied were nut the same as the sample. Tlie committer then acce p ted the ex- cuses made as satisfactory; but ie reuiarkc-ti at the time, and be was still strongly of opinion, that any person who sent in inferior articles should be made to fulfil his contract, and be dis- qualified from ngain tendering. On tho sugges- tinnof the clerk (Mr. Stephenson.) it was agreed that the cheese supplied be returned, and that the contractor he asked Lo send in cheese equal Lo sample. The Master of the Ely Schools reported that. Juring the week tlieroliad been throe ad, missions and two deatlis, leaving 216 in the hou, a decrease of 32 On the corresponding week of last year. Mr. Knsor (solicitor) made an appli- cation to the guardians for the reduction of the order for maintenance made against John Clode. lie said that on the 25th of January last, John Clode anti his brother William were each ordered by the magistrates.to pay 5s. a week, and his two brothers, Frederick and Thomas, 2s. 6d. tt week, a total of 15s. a wwk, towards the support of their mother. John C'lodo, who was a fishmonger at Taunton, was ummonrd for not paying the money. but. on his (the speaker's) advice, ho paid it. He (the speaker) wasinformcd by Mh Rees, tho magistrates' clerk, that no reduction could he made in the order, except by the consent of the nl\rdians, and hence his present appearance be, fore them. Uis client said he coidd not pay so much. He had a business at Taunton, but he had no capital, and ho had ten children, the whole of whom were dependent on him for their mainte- nance. Perhaps the guardians vvouiu not liC Ul. posed to treat him favourably, because ho behaved 1\ith some insolence towardg the, but he now wished to inako to them an am p le apology. Dr. Paine said he ?s on the bench w h e. the e.,? was hoard. • It was a painful case, but tJiey had the information of the positions of the sons, and they thought it was a reflection upon them that Mrs, Clode wxs oven obliged to make an applica- tion to the magistrates. He was of opinion that the guardians should not interfere with the order made. It was true 15s. a week wa a larger sum than was usually allowed, but they took into con- sideration the position of the sons and the previous circumstances of the lady. He asked Mr. Pritchard to tell them what he knew about Alr. John ( lode. Mr, Pritohard (warrant officer) said he visited Taunton before tho case was hconi, and he found that John Clode had a large business as a fish. fruit, and provision merchant. Only one fishmonger's shop was allowed in Taunton, and, therefore, be had a monopoly of this trade. It was true he had ten children-but one was in India a second, .g?d about 21 years, was a I t\en;ie a third, aged about, nineteen y?t?tt?iatpd in the shop; ? f.Lh, g?d b,?t years, was a dressmaker: and a fifth w( nt about with a cart. Tho other live he had to maintain, Mr. Jacobs moved that, the order of the magistrates be not intct-iort cl with. The Hev, Sujiey. seconded the motion, and remarked that the ladv, who was a parishio. of his own, was a very ri-spectaljle person. To h, this had been a very painful matter; but slio had had no alternative but to proceed against her sons. After ome further ob-ervations, Ù\A motion was mrried ?n.. ?t-<. The report of the vaccination comuiitteo was read. Dr, Paine moved its adop- tion. He said he thought they arrived at a very proper conclusion as to tho matter mentioned in the report. They were anxious that the vaccina- tion should be carried out as efficiently as possible. They were every now and then threatened with a visitation, and he had on several occasions made an inspection of the town, as tho result of which he believed that vaccination was on the whole efficiently carried out, but the information given to them was not satisfactory. The conclusion at which the committee arrived was that lists should bo regularly laid before them of all children who bad not bien vaccinated, with remarks as to each caae, and a statement of the steps taken to enforce ,.c,i t' n b the ci ?Ltion officer. The motion ;dd:J te ;rY':C dce";d unani- .ously. There was no more busin?? of interest.

THE DEAN OF LLANDAIV ON THE…
THE DEAN OF LLANDAIV ON THE I • CENSUS. THE DUTY OF INDIVIDUALS, I THE NUMERICAL STRENGTH OF I RIVAL SECTS. I LAWLESSNESS. I Sunday wjvs the day fixed for the census of 1881. and to-day the 9nwnerotor will eall Cor the chedule3, takmg cam the entries are properly made and likoly to be correct. This important decennial event was referred to by the Dean of Llandaff, in his sermon at the Cathedral, Llandaff, on Sunday afternoon. Tho very rev. gentleman selected as his text, Revelations vii., 0—" A great multitude which no man could number." He sald: The text speaks of an impossible numbering, a defeated census. Its scene is laid in the world above, to which human calculations are inap- plicable, where they reckon not by y?m and ,lay b earthly arithinctic or material habita- tion. Zet the thought be present with us, to elevate, to humble, and to 8olL?mnisN on this Census Sunday, for which, in one diocese, a special service, I am told, is providod, and which cer- tainly should suggest to all of us some seriOIlS thoughts, whother as individuals or us citizens, whether as men or as Christians. Three great &rlp1Ule -xamples will occur to all of us of a 'fhere i. that memorable numbern is that from which :e)e book riDtí;e Old r;¿;i: name-when" tlw Lord spako unto Ioses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year after the Exodus from Egypt, saying, Tako ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the houe of their fathers, with the number of their names." There is that numbering of Israel nearly five cen- turies later in his history which, for ome un- explained and inscrutable reason, was ascribed to the temptation of tho Devil, and drew down upon the king and his people a terrible judgment, a pestilence from Dan to &erheba. costing seventy th.-d precious lives. Thi,dlv there is t)?,,t numbering of which St. Luke hm kept the record, that census of the population of the wholo Emuire by the decree of Rome, which was overrule by Divine P,id. to the fulfilment of the Diviae prophecy "where Christ should be born." Each one of these numberings has its own lessons, and the combination and contrast, of them will furnish all that we need for our own instruction and admonition to-dav. We have before us a census commanded bv (lod, a census punished by God, and' a census overruled bv God, It is plain that there are duties connected with a census, dangers connected with a census, providences connected with a census. We shall not attempt a r -Md divi- sion of ï,Ssjeeud ;stt Io£ d1 we shall say something upon each of them, and we shall close with the text itself, and its magnificent repudiation of all censuses in the aspcet of eternity and of heaven. It was not till the year L801 that an exact enumeration was attempted of the popu- lation of the United Kingdom. The machinery of the first census was what we should now roll rough and casual, but an approximate result was ob- tained, and we stilluso it for purposes of inference and of comparison. The present decennial census is, therefore, the Dinth in order, and we shall all await with interest the disclosure of its secrets, But it 1, not for th graÚtieation of a natural curiosity that all the ewnso, and all cl:lt:ouI; and all the annoyance of a census are imposed bv the Lé.jlature or acœpted by the people, It has many direct bearings upon the duties of rulers, growing out of the condition positive and comparative, local and national, of the mass of human bdngs, bound into a corporate existence, with whose welfare they are charged in the sight of God and man. Wit h- out that knowledgo of details and aggregates, which a census only can furnish, the work of statesmanship, and tiie work of legislation, would be a mere blundering and floundering, always t, 2 Wti?? in its efforts, and often iiup?? in it" result." But we of thi, congregation are not statesmen and legislators. We are mere subjecti and ?itiu?s, and s such the message of God and ¡'i tll1 deal wit I i u?. An ifis it ¡:. brethren, in these day. of selfish scrambling, and selfish climbing, to be reminded, as wo are by this census of 1881, of our corporate life, as citizens of no mean city, as donizuns of this free and great Kngland. whieh has claims upon us as such—claims which cmnot be ignored by us without injun', nor by us without bleBsirif ?

And what, then, shall wo say of the God. forbidden and Goi-punished censusWhat can we think of the secret history of that numbering whkh was avenged by the 70,000 deaths under the destro" ying angel of pestilencet We can but gu: and gue5 wit h a reverent p^r.idvent.urc, where God i1J not, spoken. Something there was, which even n crafty and inted Joab saw tn ho criminal, in Lli.it. mandate of numbering which was the 1aH1t\" yet noble David's last, transgression. omt}¡iil there wa,<-we naturally think of pride iind vain-glory, of confidence in all arm ol flesh to fight its battles, of a spirit, (If defiance, DOt. of defence; counting over its armed men' and challenging other nations to rica! or to outnumber. Certainly thero maybe this spirit in a census of England in the 19th cen- tury. There is a pride in mere numbers, from winch 110 country is exempt-n pride, thoughtless and ignorant, taking no account of the proportion between population and sustenance,between popu- lation and e,.1ucat:ol1, between population and religion. There aro thoso who count it u grand thing to be one of a people reckoned by tens and hundreds of millions, to be a subject of an empire on which the sun never sets, quite apart from everv question of happiness and welfare, even from every question of room or of subsistence, even from every question of faith or llIoral-to whom, therefore, the sound of the commission, -1 Go, number Israel and Judnh," is a mere tickling of the mr of national vanity, though just, out f sight ma y be the glittering sword ftheo:;s;y;,It;r,euhvtr,nlOJ;wc1 between earth and heaven. And if -anity is one peril of the census, another, as certainly, is discord and variance, We havo all r?d and heard of discu-k?ions, in Parliament and elsewhere, concern- ing the desirableness of what Is called a religious census-an enumeration, that is, of the worshippers in particular places, with a view to estimating the comparative numbers of Nonconformity and of the Church. I know not that it, bears directly upon Ihis question, but I am struck by the direction of the 'em br.Tudl:¡onn number the tribe of Levi, hortake the sum of them among the children of Israel," Perhaps it might be argued both ways, for the Lcvites were nllm- bered afterwards sepamtely, nnd after all we live not under Judaism, but under the Gospel. This, Imwøver. I say c..?dent)),, t.lmt no consideration can outweigh that of kindness and charity in thec. s on f?l,?tiiil such as this of which I am p???ki?g. Never let it be said that the question between an Esta- blished and a disestablished Church turns upon the question of a numerical majority, I know that htere might be :? numerical inferiority fatal to tho position of an established religion. t wm so in Ireland—conceivably it might be so in Egland. But, meanwhile-no ono pretending that the hold of the National Church upon the population of England is lost to an extent like that of the Pro- testant Episcopalianism upon Ireland-what could be the advantage, save in the interests of barren wrangling, of -cenaining, so far as a cenms could asc*rtain it, the exact condition at this moment of the sum in proportion between the numbers of rival sects, or of the total of rival mcU aeainst that which is by law the Church of En- g .nd ? Turn' not the great united act of the umbering Inm an occasion of added n?in ?e multiplied discord! Let thero be peace In our daV8, even if our -n, or Tandsons _tb it Let Wllivo and let live fn this ??_t of all relations—the mode and manner of worshipping 1..0, of our fatbel8, labour for peace "-he ?o can honestly say  this will more nwgy than he perhaps Imagines I.,e cause to go on to say, "But when I pe.k unto them thereof, they make them ready to battle." "There went out a decreo from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered for taxing. All went to be registered, evei-y one to his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem" —for thus it was written in the prophets, that there. and not elsewheret Christ should be born. We would emphasise, without enlargement the providences of a census-even things in heaven take note of it—the great Christmas is dated by a cengus-tbe decree of a heathen emperor is mode to subserve the Divine prophecy, "Out of thee, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, shall come forth the Everlasting Ruler of my p NVho can tell what mighty wmt, ),?t bid in the womb of time, may be evolva in its season, from the census of 1881 ? Shall it be- we ask, but we answer not-the final develop- ment of the mystery which 11 already works," but waits still for the unveiling of the last foe, and with it of the very Lord and Judge of men ? This we know-that, if not on a scale so gigantic, tho decennial period between the ninth census of the century and the tenth, must contain within it many a riso and fall of lives and souls in our Lqrael-tlitit of us who enrol ourselves to-day among the living, a large number, unknown even to th?..]?. by face nd lamo, lt forew?n and r:v:va;fGd'l:r:'t I lot in the census of 1891-will have gone "itlun the veil which hides tho sleeping from the waking, and be interested only in that impossible census of which tho text tells, I looked, and lo, a great multitudo which 110 man could number, stood before the Throne and before the Lamb." In conclusion, the Do-an referred more directly to the subject of his t,xj, which he poke of as "an im- P.ll" Insus. He asked why was this idea of multitude of innumerableness thus pressed upon Ui in ;!m visions of God. Certainly fiat heaven was a larger place,and had "many mansions;" that millions would be there unre- cognised on earth, yet written in heaven—millions who told no tale below of feelings or emotions- said little of am' kind, and least of .11 of their faith and hope and love; yet in their heart's heart had Jesus Christ for the Lord of their worship, and the Lord of their ff?lt?*.n$, and ictly,, for His sake, wanton their w"y "do'in? ?l and loving mercy, and walking humbly (i d.
I CARDIFF MUNICIPAL ELECTION.
CARDIFF MUNICIPAL ELECTION. I THE SOUTH WAHD VACANCY. RADICAL DODGERY. To use an ancient proverbial phrase, Mr. William Sanders is moving heaven and earth to win the South Ward election. Keeling that his chances of success had grown small by degrees, and beauti- fully less, at his anxious solicitations the official wire pullers called a hurried meeting on Saturday of the local caucus, in oru.-r to hatch means of de- feating Air. Johnston. "e are not in the confi- dence of Mr. Sanders's friends, and do not pretend to know what they re- solved at the Saturday's meeting. Neither do we care much, and wo predict the public will care loss. The ono great question before the electors of tiie ward is: whelhor Mr. Johnston or Mr. Sanders will do most for the business prosperity of the ward, and, as a consequence, of the ratepayers generally. Mr. Johnston, and those business men, irrespective of politics, who are aiding his cause, have shown conclusively that what is urgently needed is the pre- sence in the council of men who can aid in developing the trade of the port. Some intellec- tually one-eyed individuals have said that Mr. Johnston is, in his endeavours to developethe trade of Cardiff, working in his own interest. Just W. It is recorded by tho greatest of poets, and, intieed, of philosophers, "To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night, the day, thou canst hot lie false to any man." Ilr. Johnston is true to hiuiitlf in his advocacy of the cause of the business interest of the town, and in this he is the true friend of the ratepayer. Now whit, may a working man ask, can Mr. Sanders do for me and my family '( 1 We will answer that question. Mr. Sanders can enlighten them on the eternal fitness of politics in the administration of purely business affairs. Otiierwise Mr. Sanders's oocupati 1.1 is gone. Hut the working men of the South Ward are not to be 1".mbno7.1N! by such hosh, MK. SA.NDKRS AND THE PILOTAGE HILL. ro TIIE EDITOR. Sir,—My attention 1-?? u,'n directed to a letter of Mr. W. Hichard, the repre_anlative of the Cardiff pilots on the pilotage board, ia which he charges 1110 with oppoMtion to illopilots in their ■iioi-Ls to g.iin representation. In your issue of Saturday vou quote :— ow tic (Mr. ttichards) well lvcollecteJ the meetingut fl, 1'oivii-hallin referencetntho Pilotage Hill, and there Mr. Sanders stood close, by him and ili'l his Iicst to annoy gentlemen who spoke on tho pilots' Iwhalf. In reference to the good Mr. Sanders did to the pilots, that must be a fabrication, for the following items were quoted from the recorJs of the meetings of the corporation of 18S0, when Mr. Sanders was a member of that body, and was appointed one of the Purliaii5entary Committee on the Pilotage I;i I J.y 30, 1380: —The town-cjork submitter! u draft of tile proposed petition by tlie corporation against, the Cardiff PiloUge Bill.' which Mr. S;, nde,? one of the committee, ??6reed w. On February 9,1880, Mr. Sanders must a;reell to t;I:r,nl;e?;r::I\. r'I:r: .o..I?- petitioners submit that it is nt expedient that pilols should sit on the b'Mrd which has charge of their appointment and discipline, and that the independence oi'tlie board ,liI in that matter be imperilled by such a change in its constitution. 1 shall not attempt to reply to Mr. Kx:wr..»s first statement as to my conduct at 1 he public meeting, further than to say that I felt so strongly w ith the pilots that, though a member of the cor- poration, I voted against the official resolution alld in favour of the pilots. With regard to the statement that I agreed to the corporation petition against, the Pilotlgc Hill, I can only say tliat when the draft petition was brought "before tho Parliamentary Committee I objected to the petition us drafted, Rnd proposed and advocated the excision or three important st"lementP, which were decidedly in antagonism ? ?t)??)). and two of which were ?rttck out, vi¿" in clause 5 Your petitioners deny that the constitution of I ti,, board requires alteiation, and they arc pr,- pared to show it. has hitherto worked and now works well, and for the advantage of the trndo of the port." And in clause 8, Your petitioners deny that thorn is any need for ..hang- Mr. Richards says that I must have agreed to the resolution on the 9th of l'ehruary, 1880, quoted in his letter, viz., "that it is not expedient that pilots should sit on the board," hc, but he ?tn- f.ther omits reference to the immediately pre- sLmMpli in the mi-liorittion records, vii. ???ing l?!7, par. 562), R?.1,,cl, upon the mohon ot Mr Alderman Bowen, seconded by Mr. U.,ill., Sanders, that, it be an instruction to the Parlia- mentary Committee not to object to the ll"t. having power to elect repr"c!ntat upon the pilot"" board, who must reside In th i(i :f. of Cardiff, or within /.i!1}tl:or.id On the 28th of June, 1880, it wns decided by a majority of sixteen against eleven (myself being among the minority) thatpbe opposition should be carried to the House- ot' Lords, but "n th.'l?ot fiOi't ¡¡¡I 'I'e'r rd:; I question, it waq Resolved, on the motion f ?Ir. Cmmeillor fhndI'F, -,?ennd,d by Mr. CounrUtor Duncan, that the resolution passed on the 28tit of June be rescinded, and that, the corporation take no further steps in t he matter of the Bristol Channel Pilotage (Cardiff) Bill." This motion was carried by a majority of seventeen against four. The electors, bavins now before them more complete extracts from the corporation minutes, will see that Mr. Richards's letter, and not, mv statements, are thO -fabrication," to which, with others, I shall further reply at my p?iblic e?t ing at Hannah-etreet ?hooh-oom, on ?iond". -I am, kc„ W. A!'iDERR TO THE EDITOR, sip,-i wag very pleased in reading the report of Mr. Johnston's meeting at the Stuart-hall, and particularly struck with tho letter read from Mr. W. Richards, pilot, owing to his inability-to attend, quoting clause 7 of the petition presented by the Cardiff Town Council against the Cardiff Pilotago BilI,viz. Your potitionerssubmit that it is not expedient that pilots should sit on the board which has charge of their appointment and discipline, and that the independence of the board would in that matter be imperilled by such a change in its con- stitution." I do not wonder that any pilot should be justly indignant at such a clause, and was quite prepared to find Mr. Richards championing their cause, as he has heretofore done whenever that body has been assailed. But, sir, I will go further, and quote the pre- ceding clau??4, v i x.:— ?"'?u?'5.?'Yot"'petitioners object to the pro- posed or to any alteration of the con.Htutton of the said boord, whereby tho voice assigned to thew by Parliament in the determination of the board ,?hall be diminished; and they are prepared to s liow that the alte .on proposed is most inexpe- N:'t }\eie:cnor the o'fÖ;dï¡ff.X:d for the well-being of the trading community and inhabitant* of the town, Clause 6.—Your petitioners submit that the definition in the Hill of two of the classes which it is proposed so to represent on the board, namely, the 1 merchants' and the 'shipowners, is vague and improper, and that the appointment of repre- sentatives of merchants' by the etiambor of commerce, a self-constituted body, having no legal status, and which may disappear at any time, Is without precedent and objectionable." I may remind Mr. Sanders that the merchants, shipowners, and other members of the chamber of commerce will not forget his conduct as one of the members of the town council, he being then pre- sent at the meeting when the said petition was unammovdy passed, and the corporate seal sffixedi when be could have used his induame, as a member of the town council, in the only prac- tical and efficacious manner, by railing his voice oa behalf of the Bill,-I am, &c., Cardiff, April 2. A MERCHANT. 11 A South Ward Burgeis," who sends his name and address, writes as follows I have been a burgess of the South Ward for some 28 yean, and have exercised the privilege to vote for any can- didate for municipal honours that I was inclined to support. I find now that I have been struck off the South Ward roll, and shunted to Roath. Many of the same political creed as myself (Conservative) have been similarly dealt with, and this without any express desire and consent. Is this alteration in accordance with municipal law ? and that an old and large property qualification to remain unrepresented in municipal elections ? If you can point out the way for myself and others to remedy this, as it appears to me, artful Liberal dodge, you will oblige."

The old Christian faith helli bv the Catholic Church Wa that thofto who dortti)i life In grave and deadly sin will perish overlastingly." The persuasion of many non-Catholics was that there would be either restoration and ultimate happiness for all sinuere, or that sinners would bo annihilated. In this country a large number of the Unitarian body were UnivcrsalisU, but when an Anglican dignitary, like Canon Karrar.of Westminster, preached Kastora- Hon" in tbeAbùey itself, it was no wouder that well- meaning Frotastanta of every shade were disturbed and uncertain. It was certainl y a little startling to be told that everlasting punishment found no warrant in the New Testament. (iehenna," we were told, was the word invariably used (with one exception) for" Hell," and" (ithenna" meant, a locality of horror well known to the Jews, who had no belief in nnv everlasting punishment beyond the gmve. 'r r iis vie*, however, had been con- r)usi?ety d6po:sed of by Dr, Pusey (" What is of Faith as to Everlastin Punishment."—Rivingtons) who proved that the Jewish Church really did hold the eteruity of the pains of heU, If Scriptur phraseology meant anything, "eternity" was, in tho New Testament, clearly ascribed to the doom of the lost. The word for 10 eternal," or" overfcisting," it was well known to scholars, occurred about 77 times in the .New Testament; of these it was used 44 times of (iod's kingdom and glory, and several other things perpetual and stable, as our inheritance in Christ, on hone, There was no instance of its ever being use d in a d,,n?,t??blyli,nit.1 tl?,,refre, it was applied, as it was some t,?, or twelve time,, to j? ?mt and d:;I,thW;:e:; could be valid reason for restricting its mean, ing. Resides, in passages like Matthew xxv., 46, there was all expressed parallelism between the lot of the just, who should go into "life everlast- ing," and the wicked, who were to receive ever- bsting punishment." Finally, the passages in the Apocalypse (Revelations), which described the =on of the lot of tho lost, were so strong and emphatic that if they did not imply literal eternity no language was available for the purpose. We were not obliged to answer all objections agaiust this or that revealed doctrine. Even physical laws like that of gravitation had certain difficulties which could not I", solved. Yet no one discarded them on that account Either we believed in God or we did not. If we did, we must believe in One who was most just and most merciful. If we did not, then, not to speak of th" intellectual difficulty of Atheism, how could we be sure that bv mere natural law moral evil, like a wounll or » disease, did not cause a never-ending train of disastrous consequences ? The fact was, hell iras rather ti?, Sult ,I a law than the effect of any so-called vengeance and anger of God, Who was imp:Lssl1.ble, Uo" executed wrath." but it w;.s because, when death found the heart altogether turned away from its last end, the hcart wrtsnafur.ilJr fixed in that aversion for enr, Sin was the fuel of hell—not light sin or thought- less Rin. or ignorant sin—but grave, deliberate, iind envious aversion from <it»d. No one ever fell into th" pit, save bydelikiate choice and in opposition to the pleadings of his conscience, and even among tho who suffered ther? :re degrees of suffering proportioned to their ransgressions, and none suffered their full deserts.

At Hisca a contest between Mr. Evan Cross and Mr. E. Eiiwards and at Uogerstone, where four persons were nominated, two remain-the Itcv, E li. Williams and Ir, J. llunter.

Caerleon, w h o resigned last week, uow asked the board to be allowed to leave on the 9th instant, owing to the illness of her mother. It was because of her mother's illness she had gi ven notice.

The school attendance com- mittee intimated that the expenditure for the quarter ending Midsummer was estimated at £32, Liberal A"OCIAT1os-Mr, Thos Phillips Price has consented to take the office of president of the Newport, Liberal Assvd"lj"n, in th place of the late Sir Henry Jackson, Bart" National Ixhools.—The report for the past vwr has ju?t been published, and it Iats the n('('ssi(y for increased accommodation. The com- mittee suggest that the boys' and girls' rooms be thrown into one, and a room for giris built on the master's garden. The houses for master and .mistress might be made into c'lns rooms. This would necessitate an allowance to them for rent of houses c'«"whe!v. | If those changes could be effcted. then a higher grade department might be established under a | qualified ma?ter, and these eb?)ia, which have done good &r\'ice 40 years, would be increasingly valuable to the community. It is gratifying to note that the list of subscribers has been greatly augmented in the past year, and there is every reason to believe that these schools have a great future before them. The committee deserve every encouragement in their work. Rkwakd of Hfroish in Savtnm Lifk.—On Satur- day, Nir.

Although cousi,. ,i e time has elapsed since the occurrence before the receipt of the Royal Society's testimonial, yet this was occasioned by the transmission of the certificate to the Kingston authoiities. who antici- pated the return of "r Thomas from England to Jamaica, Ascertaining, however, that Mr. Thomas did not propose again leaving for the Wast Indies, the certificate was duly forwarded to his Newport address, accompanied by a suitable explanatory letter.
