AMERICA CUP RACES. THE SOUTH WALES TRIBUTE TO LORD DUNRA VEN. The influential committee recently appointed at Cardiff in pursuance of the town's meeting to present a testimonial to Lord Dunraven, as a. tribute from Cardiff and South Wales, is carrying on its efforts with most gratifying suceess, brt, as we have before stated, no de- finite steps can be faken until the wishes of his lordship have been ascertained. Lord Dffj- raven is expected in England in the course of a few days, and upon his arrival a deputation from the executive committee will wait upon him to formally lay before him what liac been proposed by his admirers in Cardiff and South Wales, and, if lie be willing, obtaia from him his consent to accept the testimonial in the form proposed at. the last meeting of the general committee. Meanwhile many additional friends have expressed their desire to join the general committee, and subscriptions to a large amount have been offered, but cannot be accepted at the present juncture. The Mayor of Cardiff (Aiderman P. W. Carey) and the ex-mayor (Mr. W. J. Trounce) are exerting themselves energetically at the head of the movement, which promises to be the great svccess its promoters anticipate and South Walians generally desire.

DEATH OF MRS. STUDT.
DEATH OF MRS. STUDT. PUBLIC FUNERAL TO TAKE PLACE AT CARDIFF. Tlie death of Mrs. Studt, mother of Mr. John Studt, "South Wales greatest amusement caterer," took place at Gloucester on Monday night. The old lady, who was a Welsh woman and resided at Swansea at the time of her son's birth, was 81 years of age, came with her son to Gloucester Fair, and pitched their roundabouts on the Kingsholni Football Ground. On Monday week the old lady (who was a familiar figure at many towns in South Wales) was taken seriously ill internally, and was compelled to take to her bed in her caravan. Medical aid was summoned, and every atten- tion was given to the aged patient, but. she never recovered, and died with her arms round her son's neck on Monday night. Much sympathy has been expressed with the family of the (deceased in their sad bereavement, and Mr. John Studt was grief-stricken at the death of his mother, with whom he had travelled about for a number of years. The funeral has been fixed for to-morrow (Friday) at Cardiff, and it has been decided it will be a public one. The coffin, containing the corpse, 'will leave Gloucester by the 70.50 train, which is due at the Welsh metropolis at 1.5, and the procession will at once start for the cemetery, where deceased will be buried alongside the body of her husband (who died in 1877) in the family vault. Mr. John Studt and the rest of the family would like to publicly thank all kind friends in Cardiff, Swansea, Neath, and other towns for their messages of condolence. ■wwwm winqwi

BOARD OF TRADE INQUIRY.
BOARD OF TRADE INQUIRY. STRANDING OF A CARDIFF VESSEL. At the Town-hall, Cardiff, on Wednesday ('betfore Mr. Morton Brown, de.puty-sti.pen- ddary), assisted by Captains Parfitt and Brooks, nautical assessors, an inquiry was opened into the circumstances arttendinjg -the stranding of i he steamship R-uno, of Cardiff, on or near the east coast of Oland Island, Baltic Sea, on the 4th of July 'last- Mr. Waildron appeared for tli- Board of Trade, Mr. H. M. Ingledew for the master, and Mr. Handcock for the chief mate.—Mr. Waldron, in his opening, said the Runo was a vessel of 780 tons rsgister, and she had since the stranding bten taken possession of by 'her mortgagees, the owners being now in liquidation. At the time of the accident she was en a voyage from the Baltic to Liverpool with a cargo of timber, and carried a. oreiw of fifteen hands and four passengers, the latter being t'he oaptain's wits and child and the ohiff engineer's wife and child. The vessel was eventually got off and taken to a neighbouring port, where she was repaired. When the vessel struck tihe master ordered the cargo to be jettisoned, and a portion of it was so dis- posed of, the 'boat being badly hokd-—The 'Master (Mr. John Keir), under examination, said (he joined the ship on the 12th of December last. On the morning of the accident he was on deck with ltilw second mate till four o'clock, when he went below. Before going down he took a bparinp, and found Tofta Steeple right- abeam, distant ten miles, or eight miles from the land. The course was then altered to south- west by roufu. He gave that course to the second officcT about 3.35. The chief mate sub- sequently took charge, and would r^oeive the course from the second officer. The vessel struck at about 8.50, and he considered ttfiat the first and second officers, who were both on deck at the time, wers responsible, alt-hougibi it was the second officer's watoh.Th.e Chief officer, also named Keir, but who, it transpired, was no relative of the master, was under examina- tion when the court rose.
r CARDIFF TRADES' CONGRESS
r CARDIFF TRADES' CONGRESS MR. BEN TILLETT DISCUSSES THE DECISION. Mr. Ben Tillett, speaking on Wednesday at a dockers' meeting in Whiteolrapel on the sub- ject of the recent Trades Union Congress, said the new standing orders were not sanctioned by the congress, but had been foisted on the delegates by treachery and deceit. By the putting out of political adventurers the Par- liamentary committee had let in a professional secretary and men who looked upon office as a solid commercial advantage. The change of front by men like John Burns, who had gone over to the reactionary party, would do great harm to the cause of labour. The congiess would be a great failure unless the workers altered the present state of affairs.

There are large coal stocks on the pit brows which have at last been broken into to meet the increased demand. KENFIG HILL COLLIERIES.

Ode to an Undisclosed Laureate.
Ode to an Undisclosed Laureate. (BY A CYMRIC RIVAT,.) ("It is better to have somebody than nobody."—Sir L-w-s M-rr-a to the "Western Mail" interviewer.) Prospective wearer of the laurel crown, Whoe'er thou art, accept a poet's meed! Not such as men give to the worthiest, or But, e'en as lie, to whom the hest has been denied, Must be, perforce, content with second best, 0, bard of second-rate renown, We cry to ibee Good speed! With little mercies satisfied. Since party politic?, with iron heel, Crushes the claim Of one most worthy suppliant-he whose name The modest poet dares not to reveal. Up, therefore, hackneyed phrase and obxious metaphor! Up, laboured lyre and forced rhetoric, Awake and emphasise, what nobody denies, In resonant platitude whereof all men are sick. If the wreathed's bard's succession shows a gap Since he was dead, whose kingly word, I as a slave afar off imitate, Striving upon this head to tit his vacant cap, I, heart-sick with a hope too long deferred, Reflect that reformation never oomes too late. Then turn for comfort to the ancient saw- From copy-books profound reflections draw. A wind that blows but ill is ill indeed, Be subjects blind-there reigns the one-eyed man. And, though they grow apace like noxious weed, The fraudulent shall not succeed. The scathless mocks the scar. Be bygones, then, regarded as the past, Since better late thin never blessings are. And beet of laughs is his that laughs the last. —"St. James's Gazette."

That there was no Church without a graduated hierarchy, a stereotyped ensed, a certatn con- fined cflnannel of gro.,ie. and a real or fictitious line of Apostolical successors was to tell them that there could bss no living body and throb- bing heart without a, particular fashion of drees —(laughter)—-or that there oouitd be no Divine force without one unvarying kind of machinery. (Applause.) Th.2! Church in all ite essentials existed before ecclesiaeticism was born, and it would remain in all essentials when every known form of jeccleeLastkasm. was dead and forgoten. There were certain words, such as "heresy" and "scfoiem," which ecclesiastics had always employed as bogies to frightm children, but they were too (familiar with theon to be scawl. (Laughiter.) They knew no schism except that which denied living truth or severed itself from the body of Christ, and they were more than innocent of both offences. They had never dissented or separated themselves in a.ny degree- from the company, visible and invisible, of the faithful, or from Him Who was its Living Head. They had only parted from a politico-ecclesiastical organisation. (Applause.) These principles, clearly understood and firmly held, would determine their attitude towards seme of those questions which were everywhere exciting and, perhaps, suggesting larger hopes to the Christian mind. One of the most impor- tam of these was the problem of Christian union. Whatever form it took, there was no doubt it was arousing the widest possible interest. It had elicited from the Archbishop of Canterbury a manifesto which followed an Apostolic precedent in becoming all things to all men and giving no offence in any- thing," which was for the most. part sweetly vague, innocently unmeaning, and only strong at the point where it claimed for its own Com- munion unrivalled authority and unique impor- tance and it had drawn from the amiable tenant of the Vatican a curious perversion of history and an emphatic re-assertion of errors which were revolting to every Pro- testant mind. (Applause.) Between men, however, who gloried in the prin- ciples and doctrines of the Reformation and men whose eyes were turned towards Rome, men who were avowedly more wishful to fraternise with foreign hierarchies than to join hands with their Christian fellow-countrymen, a closer approach was hardly within the range of present possibility. When men were willing to go with almost obsequious steps and cap in hand to beg for Papal recognition of their onlers, and their Primate could hardly conceal his disappointment that the Pope, like all the deities on Carmel, answered them not at all —(laughter)—they not only furnished what to a Protestant nation was an unedifying and humiliating spectacle, but made Free Church- men feel that there must be an entire change of spirit and, perhaps, a new baptism of the Holy Ghost before such union could be even thought of.

THE WELSH GOLD KING.
THE WELSH GOLD KING. MR. PRITCHAiRD MORGAN, M.P. OFF TO THE GOLDFIELDS. Latest departures for the Wesfchelian gold- fields (says the "Pall Mall Gazette") include that of Mr. W. Pritchard Morgan, M.P., who, accempanied by Mr. George W. Hall, left for the Continent on Wednesday to join the Ophir at Naples. Both Mr. Morgan and Mr. Hall are interested, as our readers know, in Golden Wales, and they will bring the experience gained there to bear upon Golden Westralia,, aided by the intimate knowledge of Australian mining which Mr. Pritchard Morgan gained long ago. A small and picked band of Welsh miners accxjmpanies them, and they have much busi- ness in hand, not only cm their own behalf. but as representatives of established commonm. Meantime, judging from the number of take- jnctes which are being applied for, Welsh gold nining and prospecting is prooeeding ae;t.vely. M-r. Me>rgaji will return to London for the re- assembling of Parliament, but Mr. Hall will probably remain in Australia for some two 01 three years.
LOCAL AMUSEMENTS.
LOCAL AMUSEMENTS. MR. COMPTON'S NEW PLAY STAGED AT THE ROYAL. It is a magnificent tribute to French dramatic art that the successful comedy, "Davy Gar- rick," and the brilliant new play, "Edmund Kean. TragediaR," both owe their initial existence to the French stage. The latter was Dresented for the first time in Cardiff at the Theatre Royal on Wednesday evening, and presented so impressively and with such dramatic perfection that the remembrance of it is likely to linger long in the memories oi Oardiffians. Edmund Kean's troublous fitful career was a fit subject for Dumas per" to write about, and the play (freely and cleverly adapted by Mr. T. Edgar Pemberton) merits more than a mere provincial production. Its entire plot practically takes place on +;h" stage. We first meet "Kean" as a membet of a strolling company of actors—"rogues and vagabonds." He loves a girl-that is hip weakness; and he drinks-that is his vice. Ambitious with an ambition that is ever over- reaching, unduly egotistic, and a greater prey than ever to his besetting sin, drink, poor "Edmund Kean" soon falls from the high posi- tion to which his genius carries him—tragedi of Drury Lane Theatre, London. He is tempted more and more by wine and women, and he succumbs. Matters move swiftly, and "Kean" is ultimately dragged out of an abyss of despair and degradation by the influence of a pure woman's love, and then all ends happily. Mr. Coropton has never shon-* to greater advantage than in the character of the erratic "Kean. The life of the storm-tossed actor is fullv por- trayed with an earnestnefas and intensity that wao highly appreciated bv an exceptionally flnrtwisiatftic audience. Mr. Compton seeom8 to live the part, and in Act 111.,when he play»i a scene from "Hamlet," and, maddened b: passion and rage, breaks down, his acting wai wipremely tragic anet the .ensuing an.nl a use deafenting.
