drove foul of the Cobden Austrian brig: Odessa to Lime-

the Act if they had been to that effect, but, looking at

,'"at they had contemplated the increase of the

exempt from the annoyance of a gate in the centre

THE WELSH CHURCH.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—ln your paper of Thursday last a letterr
signed " Phil-Artegall" tip:eared. It relates to a
controversy now carrying on between the Bishop of
St. David's and Sir Benjamin Hlll, in a correspon-
dence addressed by both parties to the Archbishop of
Canterbury, upon the subject of Brecon College.
In chivalrous days, without previous consent or
some urgent and most honourable incentive, it was
always deemed an unknightly act for one warrior to
attempt the personification of another, either by as-
suming his archetype's distinctive armour and peculiar
device, or by so disguising his own as to produce
sufficient likeness to confuse identity. Those days,
indeed, are over, but the generous courtesy which
regulated their usages survives and pervades our own.
Even a fictitious signature, like a tournament device,
after having once been successfully appropriated, is
usually respected as inviolable. Spenser, the poet, well
versed in our national records, and deriving alike the
name and the character of " Artegall" from
history, assigned them both to the immortal, though
ideal, hero of a legend in his " Faery Queen". The
predominant emotion excited by the Reports of the
Commissioners of Inquiry into the State of Educa-
tion in Wales, was a sense of their great injustice. A
resolution to expose that wrong stimulated memory
at once to offer freely her store of kindred ideas, and
prompted the choice from among them of " Artegall,"
as the Knight of Justice and also as the Knight of
Cambrian Britomart. This name, thus adopted, had
become well and widely known in association with
the successful disproof of the Commissioners' calum-
nious statements, when the Bishop of St. Davids'
thought fit to make its owner an object of public re-
probation in a Visitation Charge; his Lordship having
apparently been misled by an artfully infused suspi-
cion that " Artegall" might be found among the
clergy of his diocese.

In the Times of Dec. 26, 1848, appeared the vindi-
cation of" Artegall" from the censures of the Bishop
of St. David's.

Content to have thus repelled the rude assault of
the only champion who bad ventured an encounter in
the Commissioners' cause, and honouring the sacred
name and functions of the Knight of Justice, I then
hung up his unsullied arms and shield, to await the
time when Cambria might,yet again, perchance, re-
quire their use.
The Bishop of St. David's now appears before the
public again, not indeed as the challenger, but as the
defendant, in this modern ordeal of battle.
The circumstances of his former attack were un-
usual and indecorous, it would therefore be ungene-
rous and ignoble in me now to rush with bold dis-
courtesy between the judicial combatants, offering
trivial annoyance to my old opponent, and petty aid
to his stalwart adversary, and thus insulting both.
The letter signed " Phil-Artegall," whether it
happens to be erroneously attributed to the author of
the remarks on the reports, or falsely considered as
written by his friend, and with the true " Artegall's"
knowledge and sanction, is, therefore injurious to
that good name on which some little benefit to Wales
may possibly yet depend. That letter is obviously a
hasty production, dictatorial in tone, crude in thought,
coarse in expression, and embodying almost as many
vulgarities as sentences. Its style serves effectually
to withdraw the attention of reflective readers from
the matter on which it treats, by suggesting the in-
q-uiry,—lV hat can such a writer intend by the phrase
" High Education '
The celebrated Tractate of Milton unfolds a
system of education fitted at once to cherish and to
ennoble all the finest qualities of human nature, and
to form the most useful and exalted characters. Lord
Bacon, in his Advancement of Learning," defines its
true purpose to consist in enabling its possessors to
become "a rich storehouse for the glory of the Crea-
tor, and the relief of man's estate." The prevalent
desire of Dr. Arnold was to send his pupils forth into
the world "rich in the indivisible love of truth and
goodness."
This, in strict terms, is " high education," for the
lofty ambition excited by such training is consistent
with content in the lowliest lot, while it tends with
strong force to habitual self-improvement and moral
excellence. My pseudo friend must certainly use the
phrase in another and a narrower sense, merely intend-
ing thereby to designate a course of thorough instruc-
tion in certain ancient languages, and in the leading
facts of physical science, Education of this sort is
undoubtedly valuable, though scarcely entitled to
pompous encomium. In order to adapt it effectually
to supply the present requirements of \Vales, it must
not only receive sound principles for its basis, but it
must also include a thorough knowledge of the past
and present literature, history and condition of the
country ; and most especially, it must bring all these
advantages directly and simply to bear upon the
people's welfare, by a diligent and sedulous cultiva-
tion of Cambria's vernacular tongue. A close ap-
proximation to my literary title has been adopted to
recommend what I could not have written, and to
meddle where courtesy restrained my interference;
,in short,'my semblance has been borrowed for an un-
worthy purpose : therefore, to disclaim that particular
letter, and to protest against all simi/ar imputations,
past, present, and future, has now become the duty of
THE AUTHOR OF ARTEGALL.

The increase of working expenses has been occasioned
partly by the increased work done, and partly from the
repairs which have been pushed forward as much as pos-
sible, so as to prepare for the Great Exhibition. The
larger expenditure for renewals has also been occasioned,
in a great measure, by the latter cause, and by the wish
to provide for the increase of traffic without resorting to
capital for a large quantity of additional stock.
The close of the year 1850 affords a fit opportunity
for giving a comparative view of the progress of the
company's affairs from the formation of their entire
system of railways, in 1848; since the commencement
of which year no additional source of traffic of any im-
portance has come into operation, except the opening of
the short Eastbourne and Hailsham Branches, and of
the Bricklayers Arms' Station and Thames Junction
Line, for goods traffic, in the spring of 1849.

ture for the years 1848, 1849, and 1850, gives the fol-
