SITSDAY CLOSING. THE DEAN OF HEREFORD AND THE WESTERN MAIL." The Df-an of Hereford, ^residing at a Sun- day Closing conference b..ld at. the Corn Exchange. Hereford, referred to the attack made upon him by the "Western MaiL" The very rev. gentlf-man said the attack made upon ii.iii was a very harmless one, and1 he was accustomed to that sort of thing. The "Western Mail" had said. "The value of the Dean of Hereford's speech lies in the fact that it is a typic-al temperance speech, and I .-hows what little trouble teetotal orators take to load their speeches with anything bearing the remotest resemblance to a fact. We daresay that the very rev. the dean is an advocate of Sunday Closing for England, yet we have him calmly admitting that he knows absolutely nothing of Sunday Closing in actual operation, and that tne facts we placed before him astonish and astound him. A nan who neglwots or deulin«e to secure information j which lies at his elbow deserves only to be told to go and get it. But hie i-peech had. been merely a pacing reference to the subject. When the writer was good enough to say he (the dean) knew nothing about the subject and had better learn something about it, he thought lie probably knew more about Sunday Closing than that writer or most people. He kappened to hare been for some years pre- sident of the Sunday Closing League in Lon- don. Anyone going through the crowded streets there on a Sunday could see the amount of drunkenness going on, and that this question was not one merely of fetching the supper and dinner beer. Referring to Sunday Closing iu Scotland, ho said that since the closing of public-houses there on Sundays there had been a great decrease in drunkenness, not- withstanding the increase of population. He had travelled in foreign countries and had seen something of the results in Sweden and Norway and across the Atlantic. The, gen- tleman at Cardiff t-eemingly had no en,i- of humour, or probably he might be interested I in the trade. (Laughter.) What lie said was that he had to go down to Cardiff to find out that there were really evil results from Sunday Closing, and lie said that somewhat ironically. It was sad to think that Cardiff should be the only place where there were bad results from Sunday Closing. He thought that if the laws as they now existed—and this applied to a great deal of their existing legis- lation—were thoroughly carried out. aiid the magistrates and police were most anxious and eager to carry them out. and especially the law with respect to the control of the liquor traffic. they would have less drun- kenness existing in the land than there was now. (Hear, hear.)—Dis- cussion being afterwards invited, the Rev. B. D. Martin said that the amount, of drinking that went on at clubs on Sundays was enormous. He thought it would be unfair to close public- houses without also closing the clubs. Looking it the subject in another light presuming the houses were closed on Sundays, what a dull life many would consequently lead on that day. He referred to people who were not in the habit of frequenting a place of worship and were denied the privilege of the social circles of a public-house. Of course, those who have pleasant homes did not view the subject, in this I: J. Davids (magistrates' clerk) said that. if they were to try for total closing of the houses, he thought they would meet with great opposition in the House of Commons. He advised them to commence gradually: to allow the houses to be open, say. one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening. Tn Kdin- hureh during a visit he went in company with n police official to see the result of the closing nf public-houses on Sunday. The streets he described as being perfectly quiet, but on look- ing into some houses down back streets they aw people lying on the floors intoxicated.— The conference concluded with the pawing of a resolution in favour of Sunday Closing. [The above is summarised from a fnll report which appears in the Hereford Times.-ED. TV.M.

NEW omxs OF ST. JOHN'S. THE IDENTITY OF THE ANONY- M'OUS DONOR. When the handsome new organ of St. John's Church. Cardiff, was erected in the autumn of last, year one of the conditions of the gift was that the name of the denor should not be dis- closed till after his death. Speculation wae rife and many names were suggested, but the personality of the generous gentleman who pre- sented the church with so valuable a gift hae only now been revealed. The organ was given by the Rev. Cyril Stacey. whose death at Cheltenham was announced in the Western Mail on Wednesday. Whilst acting as curate- in-charge of St. John's Church the Rev. Cyril Stacey always took the greatest interest in the musical portion of the service, and his brother, Mr. Frank Stacey. who was a capable organist, on many occasions presided at the old orgaal in the west erallery of the church. In this lies the i-aaon why the deceased gentleman decided to adorn the church of which he was for so many > ears the respected curate-m-charge. It may be mentioned that the organ, whic-h iJII acknowledged to be one of the finest in the country, cost over £ 2.000. ajid was erected by Messrs. Henry Willis and Sons, of London. It comprioes three complete manuals, from CCC to A. 58 notes, and two octaves and a half of concave, and radiating pedals CCC to F. 30 notes.

TAKIXG OFF HIS COAT. /I COLONEL HOWARD VINCENT AND THE SOCIALIST. Lively scenes are common in the county council elections in London, and the Moderates 11 c i are (scoring heavily. There w&i? another signal discomfiture of the enemy at an eiec- tion meeting on Tuesday night. It was in South BelErraTia. where thf room nv half- packed with Socialists who bad come to oppose Colonel Howard Vincent. Their leader, it is understood, is prompted by a spirit of deter- mined hostility to the Marks Act. He was personally offensive to Colonel Vincent, ex- pressing his desire, in a loud voice, to ha.ve five minutes with him. Colonel Vincent bore the infliction good-humouredly for some time. At length the bright idea, occurred to him of taking the threatener at his word. He quickly took off his coat and invited the Socialist leader to ccme on. It need hardly be said that The man did not ccme on. He went off.

EE3F0VAL OF PRISONERS. PROMPT ACTION BY GLAMORGAN CHIEF-CONSTABLE. The chief-constable of Glamorganshire (Mr. Lionel Lindsay), in a conversation with one of our reporters on Wednesday, admitted that the i marching of prisoners from Llandaff through the town of Cardiff to the gaol wa-s not quite up to our modern ideas. Complaints, he aid. had been made at Swansea and other places of similar exhibitions, and he would see that the matter was brought before tht proper authorities as early as possible. In justice to Mr. Lindsay we should state that unless the joint committee MpcTion the expense of removal by cab. he would not lie justified in incurring the expense. Usually the Llandaff prisoners ar* taken to Cardiff by "bus. but this method is not relished bv the other passengers, and. prol-,ably irrange- r.ie],ts will shortly be made which will prevent roe possibility of further complaints.

A DISCOVERY. SALVATIDN IN THE APPLE AFTER ALL. Mr. Justice Grantham has made a. discovery which is nothing less than the origm of enl. He told the grand jmy at Hereford on Monday that: he had heard for some time that so far as that county was concerned it owed its compara- tive immunity from physical disorders to the fact that Herefordshire was a great cider-drink- ing county. He had come to the conclusion that cider had the same effect on the moral a.s on the physical maTi. ar;d that they owed their great frpedom from crime, if he might say so. to the fact that Herefordshire people drank cider. If that, wa.- the case, he hoped other counties would follow the example.

Two-thousand Lives Lost ELBE WRECK RECALLS J: RIVER TRAGEDY. The Story of a Fearful Crime Whieli Wa.s Carefully Concealed from the Light for Thirty Years. The recent wreck of the passenger steamw Tibe on the North Sea, involving a loss of upwards of 300 lives, re-ca.ils other similar catastrophes, that always have a tragic interest. The most notable event of this kind that has occurred within the century, and which wa.8 acc-onqianied with the greatest loss of life, was on one of the inland waterways of the "United States, just at the close of the civil war. It ha? in. it more of the mournfully pathetic and The darkly tragic than anything of the kind in modern time#. Some time during the latter part of April. 1865, the steamer Sultana, left New Orleans for St. Louis with 250 cabin passenger?, and 250 hogshead? of sugar, billed for Memphis. At Vii ksb.irg the steamer took on a contingent of 2.1C7 soldiers and 35 officers, making a total of 2,392 souls, exclusive of the crew. This WM fore than live times her legal carrying: Japacify, and the men were huddled together on her decks like so many cattle. These soldiers were nearly all veterans, had ;een years of hard ser- A-ice. and. the war now being; over. looked for. ward with intense eagerness to the meeting of whee. children, friends, and swe^thearte. Yet, though they had escaped the fatal missiles and mishaps of war. and while they stood on the very threshold of the long-delayed peace, eter- rity was to stand between them and the loved oner at home. The heavily-laden steamer reached Memphis on the night of the 26th of April, at about 10.30 o'clock, and the captain of the Sultana then requested of Major W. W. 1'idler, of the 6th Kentucky Veteran Cavalry, a detail of men to unload the 250 hogsheads of sugar, adding in the generosity of his heart, that for such service he would give the men their breakfast. Owinfr to the crowded condition of the vessel, no cooking could be done, and the men had to eat their rations raw, excepting the 35 officers, who messed in the cabin. The soldiers detailed. unloaded the sugar, and the steamer went on her fatal way. On leaving the landing it Memphis the Sultana bore well to the Tennessee. Fide of the river till a point was reached known as the "Hen and Chickens." being a. group of small islands. Here she was headed diago- nally across the current ill order to strike calmer waver on the Arkansas side. The sugar, which had acted as ballast, being -one. the lioat was now tcp-hea.vy. and Tocked like a vessel in a gale. This roc-king motion agitated the water in the boilers, which were carrying a pressure entirely beyond the limit of safety. At this point the levees, which had fallen into neglect during the war, were broken on botH sides and the water was fifteen miles wide. The shore lines were only distinguishable by a fringe of trees. The night was esoeptdonally dark. Low. murky, and water-laden clouds hung in the sky, and frequent and vivid iiune3 of lightning illuminated the horizon, momen- tarily lighting up the wide expanse of water?, .-bowing a desolate alii terrible nspeci, :,Tt4 then pitchy darkness. It was as if the night had been fashioned for disaster. The doomed steamer had answered to her helm and had righted herself to the current, when. suddenly, as if a torch had burs* forth from the infernal regions, the gloom gave way to an intense glare, while a groan, as if of a world in mortal agony, rolled and reverberated over the Mis- sissippi. The strained boilers had exploded, rending the steamer in twain, and fire at once followed, -is the wreck, laden with scalded, living and dead, floated away. While all this was enacting, the water covered with a shriek- ing and struggling mans of humanity, the encroaching flames driring iff the survivors into the merciless waters, the storm had come, the sky was blazing with vivid light, and the thunder of the heavens added to the terror of the scene. Of the troops, only 403 vere> saved. 1,739 gallant <ouk perished almot-t within i-aii L-P of the welcoming sounds of home. For nearly 30 years the public mind in Ame- rica has rested under the impression that a Confederate spy. one Robert Lowden by name, had wrought this deed by secreting dvmamite in the coal bunkers, and tliat a confession to this effect had been made to a man named I r L*IZ Streeter. of St. Louis. In July following a court martial was convened at Vicksburg to get at the facts concerning the loss of the Sultana, an dthougli in session nearly a month nothing came of it.

WAS A REXOWNEI) DAXCEB. TECS, FUNESAL OF MADAME CA8- TIGLIONI AT BARRY. Our reporter had an interview on Wednsm. day morning with a lady at the house of Mr, May, 12. Rrook-street. Barry Docks, whoøe wife was huned on Tuesday, as reported in. the "Western Mail" on Wednesday. Mrs. May had long entertained a fear (our representative was informed) that she would be buried alive, and dreading such an appalling possibility in her existence, she had repeatedly mentioned the matter to her nearest relatives. She had been ill for some time, and was attended by Dr. Livingstone, Holton road. being treated for cancer. and the old lady died towards the close of last week. Deceased watf well known in the musical world as Madame Castiglioni. of the prin- cipal London, provincial, and Continental in usKvhaLlf-. and at one time was a great favourite; with the British public, bejug paid a- much as £ 100 for an appearance. Her daughter is Miss Emily Liudak, May, at present engaged with a. theatrical comjiany appearing at. Sadler's Wells. This young lady is a sister-in-law to Miss Mel in da May. who was the "principal boy" in the recent Grand Theatre pantomime, "Robinson Crusoe." at Cardiff. Mis* Emilv May came to Barry Docks from London to attend her mother's funeral, a.nd on gazing upon tht' body as it lay in the coffin on Monday she expressed grave doubts a, to whether her mother wat- really dead, her apprehensions being strengthened, she felt, by the fresh, natural colour of the deceasedV finger-nails. In order to confirm Dr. Livinjrstone's pronouncement that the ladv was dead. Miss May sent for Dr. Tre- harne. nf Cadoxton. and for some time. Dotwith- .standing the confirma'torx testimony of that gentleman. Miss Ma.v would no* allow the coffin to be closed. After some delay, however, the bereaved daughter consented to the inter- ment. takinir place, and the body -was conveyed t<: Cardiff for tliat purpose, and not TO Merthyr to Cardiff for tliat purpose, and not TO Merthyr Do van Cemetery as reported. The incident created a good deaJ of exoitement in tin- neigh- bourhood. a-nd svmputhy wit, expressed for Miss May and the other relatives.

South Wales, and Powisland. to sav nothing of the two lesser states of Mor- ganwg and Fferlys. The first, of these three. Roderick, by maternal descent and marriage, became possessed of. but. on his death (circa 377. A.D. he again sub-divided Ins Principality, and from that tune each division was governed bv a. separate Prince, and each Prince had a separate arms. and I do not know of any national coat Innie by Wales as a whole during this, tinue. Whereas Llewelyn, who made the last stand for national independence, fought w:ih at least the sympathy of the country a< n iii-tkm. His arms were quarterly gules and or four lions passant guardant counter-changed. '3) The most fitting place for the Welsh Arms would be. I take it. m the t-eoond quarter, ;is Wales is an earlier alliance than Scotland. (4) The arms of Great Britain and Ireland were settled by an Order of Council, and any altera- tion in them would have to l>e made by the same authority.—I am. dear sir. Yours, kr.. 'IT. M. JOSEPH WAT KIN. Portcullis. In dealing with his subject Mr. Thomas re- j ferred to the ancient emblems of Britain and | WaJes, especially to the Welsh Dragon of the Pendragonsliip. and also the cross of Cadwaladr. Those were, he said, emblems of the badges which were previous to the more elaborate and true heraldry. The same remark would apply to the supposed shield of Rodri Mawr. who lived before heraldry could lie said to have developed. Coming to a later time. Mr. Thomns ;ailed attention to the flag which was said to liave floated before the tent of King Henry VII. at the battle of Bos worth Field, and which waa afterwards exhibited in St. Paul's Church. Lon- don. upon which a Red Dragon was inflamed upon a ground of green and white, strewn with flames. The chief coat of arms which would represent Wales would be the shield of Lle- welyn, the last Prince of Wales. 'Hie impor- tant letter from Portcullis assumed that the four lions of Llewelyn would be the Welsh coat. The question as to whether the Welsh arms, if introduced, should occupy the fourth quarter of the Royal shield was answered in the letter from the Heralds' College in the negative, and it was considered by that authority that the Welsh arms should take the second quarter.— 1 On the motion of Principal Edwards, seconded by Mr. M. R. Jone<. a resolution ivas passed declaring the desirability of including the Weish arms in the Royal Shield and standard of the T inted Kingdom. Votes of thanks to Mr. Thomas and the chairman were also accorded.
