CARDIFF. "99i

A special meeting of the general COM
mittee appointed to take steps to invite
the national eisteddfod for 1899 to Car
diff was held on Friday, July 49, under
the presidency of the Rev. j. Morgan
Jones. There was a large and infiu-
entail attendance, and in the discus
sion that took place several speakers
strongly deprecated the envious spirit
displayed and the Incorporate remarks
made use of with reference to Cardiff
in some of the speeches reported to
have been delivered at the Aberystwyth
meeting 1t was agreed that there was
no need of any ill-feeling in the matter.
Cardiff was desrous of welcoming the
eisteddfod into the town in 1899. 1t
was first in the field. and it would seem
that Aberystwyth moved in the matter
only when it saw that Cardiff was pre-
pairing to make an application. If
AberystWyth could make out strong
er case than Cardiff, we'll and good.
Further measures We're taken by the
committee in the matter of appointing
q deputation to advocate the claims of
Cardiff before the National Eisteddfod
association. 1t was resolved to ask
Lord Tredegar to introduce the depu-
tation, and to ask Lord Butte Cor in his
absence the Earl of Dumfries), Lord
Windsor, Principal Viriamu Jones, the
bishop of LANDAU, the mayor of Car
diff, DR.. Treharne, Rev. ]. Morgan
Jones, Principal Edwards, and Coun-
cilor L. Thomas, p. j., to act as spokes-
men.

days work contribute TO the one days
work. IL IL is not the most profitable the
shop may nevertheless become valuable
place of study. The apostle might learn
the habits, the speech and tho dispositions
of the people about him, and he might
at times hold private conversations, or
in silence he might mediate on the great
subjects that had long engaged his mind.
Many eminent scholars have come out
of the places of toll. But when the Sab
bath came Paul entered into the syna-
gogue of the Jews oversees ~ and taught
the people, both Jews and Greeks. who
would givo more earnest attention be-
cause his labor was gratuitous. Later
when Silas and Timothy came from Mace
donia, he was pressed in spirit" that
is, urged to greater diligence. Probably
they brought financial aid so that he was
able to devote his whole time to teach
ing. And then, lie changed the character
of his discourscs and endeavored to show
that Jesus was the Messiah.
OPPOSITTON-The earlier preaching
of Paul in Corinth, being the ordinary ex-
position Of Scripture after the custom Of
the Tabbis, wis very acceptable, but the
later utterances in behalf of Jesus were
extremely offensive (verse 81 1t is prob
able that the people had heard of Jesus
during His lifetime and that they knew
quent hostility to His followers. In fact
strong opposition to Christianity was gen.
eral throughout the world. (Acts xviii,
23) So great was the antagonism among
the Jews at Corinth that Paul departed
from them. Shaking his raiment (Neh.
v, 13) an orient habit, he declared that he
was free from all responsibility for their
sin, that they must be held accountable
(Ezek. xxxii, ~, and that hereafter ne
would confine his ministry to the Gentiles.
1nasmuch as in their enmity they had
blasphemed, an offense punishable with
death Lev. xiv, 16), he exclaimed "Your
blood be upon your own heads Thus he
had done his full duty to his fellow coun-
trymen for whom he cherished the most
ardent affection. (Rom. tx, 80
CONVERSION.--Wh Paul quit the
synagogue to labor among the Gentiles
he did not go entirely alone. Crispus, the
chief ruler, believed on the Lord with
all his house." how many we do not know,
perhaps half dozen persons (verse 81
That was a great victory indeed, a proof
that the preaching was forceful and con-
vincing. And any of the Corinthians,
mostly Gentiles. possibly few proselytes
also embraced the faith. Justus, prose

house for the services, and Aquila and

declared it the beau ideal island home

from the extensive market gardens and
the well-Kncwn High Cliff" lime

mansion-house with the most modern
appointments. The first offer was one
of $4,000 Business. however, 1t was
at once evident was far from brisk. BY
slow stages of $500 each the price ad-
vanced to el2,000. Then came a dead
stop in the competition. All the elo-
quence of the auctioLeer could not In
duce another bid, and with a somewhat
disappointed air he remarked that he
could not think of accepting e12,0OC

have to be withdrawn from the mar

owner was not stated.

Paul from among them, the detection of
some to the Christian cause, the forma-
tion of a church, the establishment of Its
services next door to the synagogue--all
this tended to array the two religious
movements against each other. Paul had
good reasons for apprehension of trouble.
But the Lord spoke to him in a night vi
sion, as on other occasions (AoIs xiii, 1D,
to encourage and strengthen him oversees
8 and 10) Having been driven out of
Philippi, Thessalonica and Berea, he may
have feared similar result in Corinth.
He was informeS, however, that no such
disaster would oves\ake him, that no
ter he was directed to contifI>>s his minis
try without fear, assured of III Divine
presence and support. The Lord also de-
clared that he rad many people in the
city, implying thereby that he labor of
the apostle would be attended by large
and gracious ingathering.
RBSIDENCE.-'rhis vision must have
exercised a most salutary influence upon
| the mind of Paul No one could desire
stronger incentive to labor than he thus
received-personal safety, heavenly pro-
lection, abundant success. He therefore
| took up his residence in Corinth for a
considerable time. During a year and six
months he had uninterrupted opportunity
to teach the word of God (verse H. And
after the incident under Gallo oversees u
| to I'D he "tarried there good while
| (verse 49, The labor of this great man in
this commercial metropolis of Greece re-
suited in establishing large congrega-
ton composed of Roman freedmen, ma
tive Greeks and Jews. The Heterogeneous
elements did not fully combine. Factions
| sprang up after Pauls departure, with
the watch-words Apollos, Peter and Paul
| Il Cor. !, 23); and the immoralities, abuse
Of ordinances, hereses and lawsuits
among the brethren were reproved by the
apostle In his two letters Taken alto
gether Pauls ministry at Corinth was In
many respects the most interesting as 1t
was the most protracted in any city, a
determined effcrt to plant Christianity In
a poor soil.
REFUECTIONS.-S points de-
serve emphasis in this lesson. !. Wher-
ever he labored Paul adapted himself to
circumstances. Entering Corinth alone,
without money, he went to reside with a
Jew, engaged in daily toll at his trade
for a living, and on the Sabbath he en-
tered the synagogue to teach, attracting
attention only as a rabbi. When Timothy
came he changed his whole policy
preached Christ, ceased to work, and
formed a church. Every minister must ir
like manner be governed by the condi'
tions under which he is placed 2. Gods
protecting care over His servants may be
exercised in either of two ways, by de.
livering them out of trouble, as at Philip
pi (Acts vxi, 26,) or by preventing Others
from doing them harm. The latter
method was employed in Corinth (verst
10) Either accomplshes the Divine pur
pose. 8. We notice that the miraculous
| features have almost disappeared from
this lesson. Paul's work at Corinth wa:
on the line of the pastor of our time-ht
was teacher of the word. By the trutf

most efficient sword Of the spirit (Eph

A Carmarthen tradition relates that
at one time, when a coach was running
between Llandilo and Carmarthen,
passing by Golden Grove, three corpse
candles were observed by the riders on
the surface of the river Towy gliding
down the stream, which runs near the
read. All the passengers We're able to
see them. A few days later some men
were about crossing the river near the
same place, in small coracle, when 1t
was flooded, and were drowned; the
three corpse candles having foretold
their fate. 1t is again stated by Welsh
tradition that the origin of this par
ticular death portent was a special
prayer made by st. David, the titular
saint, who, after observing the care
lessness of the people in regard to their
immortal souls. prayed that heaven
would give a sign of the presage of
death, and since that day South Wales,

The Well of st. Elan, near Colwyn
Bay is known as "The Well of Curs-
ing" and is supposed to be the very
place that should be visited by anyone
desirous of taking revenge on their
enemies. Tradition says that should
one man wish to curse another, so that
evil will surely befall him, he has mere
ly to visit this strange well, scratch
the initials of his foe on a pebble, and
drop it into the water. Then "Hey
presto!" and sudden death or some
other great calamity will assuredly
overtaka the foe!
