In an article on the tithe divalty in Wales. in the October number of the Congregationalist, the following story is told us "xtremely signi fosat of the tendency of popular opinion in Wales." The writer says:A few days ago we had a conversation on a railway platform with a Welsh farmor, which was extremely suggestive, "I know a farmer's wife over the hill there," asid my friend, "and the person came to collect tithe. She said to him, Parser, I have eleven children; will you take cas of thein?
