Am Gymry Llundain. CYFARFODYDD MAL — Daw'r arweinwyr crefyddol o bob rhan o'r deyrnas i Lundain y dyddiau hyn er cymeryd rhan yn nghyfarfodydd r^ai, ac mae'r brwdfrydedd a welir yn y gwa- franol gynulliadau yn profi eu bod yn ami o dan ddylanwadau'r Diwygiad Cymreig. JIWBILI.—Ond yn y cylchoedd Cymreig rhaid addef mai'r newydd goreu ynglyn a'r ;apelau Llundeinig yw y ffaith fod Capel y Gohebydd" o'r diwedd wedi llwyddo i glirio y ddyled drom fu arno cyhyd. CYFNOD NEWYDD. — Oddiar symudiad yr eglwys Annibynol hon i'r adeilad coffadwriaethol Barrett's Grove, nid yw ei bywyd ond wedi °d yn fath o dymhorau cynhyrfus eto, o dan yr anfanteision i gyd, llwyddwyd i gadw yr b achos yn fyw, a hyderwn bellach y daw cyfnod eWydd yn ei hanes, ac y ceir gwir lwyddiant a chynydd ynglyn a hi rhagllaw. YMWELWYR.—Gan fod y fath nifer o bregeth- y yn tyrru i'r Brifddinas y dyddiau hyn, y ae n gyfleus iawn i gynhal y cyfarfodydd egethu blynyddol yn rhai o'n heglwysi, a ark • ce*r yn yst°d y Sul (yfory), gyrddau enig yn St. Benet, yn Gothic Hall, ac yn arrett's Grove. Ar y Sul dilynol ceir cyfarfod ynyddol eglwys fechan East Ham. e Y DIWYGIAD.—Mae'r Diwygwyr ieuainc o c yniru sydd ar ymweliad a Llundain yn cael fod hwyl gyda'r gwaith yn ein plith, a deallwn a tYrru mawr mewn rhai capelau i wrando rnynt. YN^FWELNWYR Y GENEDL.—Cyhoeddir cyfroi Cen ^an yn rhoddi hanes rhai o arweinwyr £ °lv J Cymry yn ystod y ganrif ddiweddaf. Y gy d fydd Mr. Vyrnwy Morgan, gwr a fu unwaith yn weinidog blaenllaw gyda'r Annibyn- wyr Seisnig yn York Road, Westminster, ond yn ddiweddarach o'r America, lie y cyfarfyddodd a rhai helyntion anffodus. Mae nifer o wyr blaenllaw wedi addaw cynorthwyo Mr. Morgan yn ei waith. CYMUNDEB HWYROL.—Nid yw'r Esgob Gore yn credu mewn gweinyddu yr ordinhad o Gymun Sanctaidd yn yr oedfaon hwyrol. Myn ef mai yn y boreu y penderfynwyd y sacrament yn ol y Tadau Apostolaidd, eto nis gwedy y ffaith mai ynglyn a swper ei sefydlwyd gan y Gwaredwr ei hunan. Er hyny i gyd, gwell gan yr Esgob gynghori ei offeiriaid i'w gynhal yn y boreu. Pe dygid yr un cynllun i fewn i eglwysi Ymneillduol Cymreig y ddinas, yna byddai rhif y cymunwyr yn fychan iawn. ARLUNWYR CYMREIG.—Cynrychiolir amryw o'r arlunwyr Cymreig yn y Royal Academy eleni fel arfer, ond y mae dau Gymro eraill mor feiddgar a rhoddi arddangosfa fechan eu hunain y dyddiau hyn. Dengys Mr. Lionel Edwards, A. R.C.A., nifer o'i ddarluniau yn y Graves Gallery, Pall Mall, ac yn yr un lie ceir amryw o weithiau Mr. Edward Hughes, yr hwn a adnabyddir yn lied gyffredin fel un o'r arlunwyr mwyaf addawol sydd genym. Ar ol hyn nis gellir dweyd fod Cymru yn esgeuluso y celfau cain. AELODAU YN GWEITHTO.—Nid yn ami y ceir hanes am rai o'n haelodau Seneddol yn gwneyd dim o'r tuallan i'w dyledswyddau pleidleisiol, ond yr wythnos hon daeth dau o'r gwyr distaw i'r amlwg ym mhersonau Mr. Lloyd Morgan a Mr. Vaughan Davies. Hwynthwy, feallai, o bawb sydd yn cynrychioli y rhanau mwyaf Cymreig o Gymru, eto gwyr tawelog ydynt fel rheol ar lawr y Ty. CINIAW'R LLYFRGELL.—Yr oedd yn mwriad y Cymry Llundeinig sydd yn ffafriol i gais Aberystwyth am leoliad y Llyfrfa i gynhal cinio mawreddog yr wythnos hon, ond gan fod y ceisiadau eisoes wedi eu gyrru i'r Cyfrin- gynghor penderfynwyd mai doethach fydd gohirio y wledd-hyd, feallai, yr adeg y gellir llongyfarch Aberystwyth ar ei llwyddiant. ZD YR UNDEBWYR CVMREIG.-Nid yw Ceidwad- aeth yn boblogaidd iawn gan Gymry'r ddinas, a chyda llawer o drafferth y llwyddir i gael cynulliad parchus ynghyd i ginio blynyddol ynglyn a'r blaid honno yn ein mysg. Ond caed un yr wythnos ddiweddaf o dan lywyddiaeth Arglwydd Kenyon, a'r prif fater a gaed gan ei Arglwyddiaeth oedd dyfarniad ffafriol i gais Aberystwyth am y Llyfrgell. Yr ydym yn cytuno a'r Undebwyr ar un pwnc am unwaith ynglyn a Chymru. RADNOR STREET.—Cynhaliodd yr eglwys uchod ei chyfarfod pregethu blynyddol nos Sadwrn, dydd Sul, a nos Lun diweddaf. Y gwahoddedigion o Gymru oeddynt y Parchn. W. James, Abertawe, a D. Stanley Jones, Caer- narfon. Yn y prydnawn dydd Sul traddodwyd pregeth Seisnig gan y Parch. T. Nicholson, Paddington Chapel. Yr oedd rhyw arddeliad ac eneiniad hyfryd ar y weinidogaeth, a gellid gweled ar wyneb y dyrfa liosog oedd yng nghyd ym mhob oedfa fod ) r efengyl wrth ei bodd. Mae y capel wedi ei adnewyddu a'i baentio oddiallan yn ddiweddar, ac edrycha yn dra phrydferth. Medd y bobl yn Radnor Street galon i weithio. WOOLWICH.—Nos Iau, Ebrill 27ain, cyn- haliwyd cyngherdd yn Nghapel Parson's Hill, pryd y cymerwyd y gadair gan Mr. Coles. Glas- lyn, a chafwyd cyfarfod hynod o lwyddianus. Cymerwyd rhan gan y cyfeillipn canlynol Miss Sophie Davies (soprano), Miss Jennie Hagger (contralto), Miss Myfanwy Wood (elocutionist), Mrs. Hopkins (accompanist), Mr. Harry Watkins (tenor), Mr. Evan R. Wood (baritone). Gwnaeth yr oil eu gwaith yn gampus, ac yr oedd y gymeradwyaeth gawsant yn profi yn ddiddadl fod pawb wedi mwynhau gwledd gerddorol. Terfynwyd trwy ganu yr Anthem Genedlaethol — Hen Wlad ty Nbadau.Ap TREBOR. ST. PADARN'S WELSH CHURCH.—The last coffee supper of the season in connection with the above church was held on Thursday even- ing, May 5th. The chair was taken by Mr. Williams, Ifield Road, Fulham, and an interest- ing programme was gone through. Miss Emily Wheeler sang with great success "A Professor of High Degree and I love you, my love, I do," Miss Botwood effectively rendered "The Gift" and Paradise Square," Miss Gwladys Wheeler sang" Down the Vale," and Miss Jones Bwthyn yr Amddifaid." Llew Caron was well received in Gwlad y Delyn" and "Bugail Hafod y Cwm," and Mr. Tudor Evans gave Three for Jack and Milwr Clwyfedig." A humorous feature of the evening was the per- formance of "The Two Macs," and the recita- tions by Miss Thomas, Paddington, were highly appreciated. The accompanist was Mr. Theo. Davies, one of the most talented among the rising generation of Welsh pianists. The refresh- ments, which were provided by Mrs. Jones, Bridport Place, and Mrs. Jones, Princeton Street, were thoroughly enjoyed, and altogether a most pleasant evening was spent. Miss TEIFY DAVIES is engaged to be married to Mr. Walter Meyrowitz, a gifted young com- poser from Berlin. Mr. Meyrowitz is the recipient of many favours from the Royal houses of Germany, and has often conducted his own orchestral compositions in the German capital. His songs are also greatly sung there. WE wish to call the attention of our readers to the advertisement in another column of Mr. Henry Bown, the great South London photo- grapher. Mr. Bown's portraits cannot be excelled for quality and price. Special notice should be taken of his fine work in platinotype, bromide enlargements, and oil paintings, which he is now executing at a very nominal figure. Perhaps the secret of his success is that the business is entirely under his own personal supervision. Also in having such elegantly fitted studios and extensive printing works, not forgetting the fact that he employs the very best of artists for all departments.

MR. LLOVD = GEORGE AND THE LIBERA TIONISTS. Mr. Lloyd-George was one of the speakers at the Annual Conference of the Members of the Liberation Society held last week. He began his speech by expressing regret that he had not been in the House of Commons on the previous day to move to extend the Aliens Bill so as to include undesirable alien institutions. He con- fined his speech to the Education crisis which has arisen in Wales. He said that they had tried constitutional means to obtain redress, but this Government of sham remedies for real wrongs had left their cries unheeded. They must now proceed by other methods. They would not break the law; they would simply hand over the administration of the law to the people who believed in it. "It is not our Act," he said, "it is theirs; let them enforce it if they can." The Government had selected the present moment to strike because they thought that the Welsh people were so absorbed in their devotions that they would not heed an attack on their faith. But the Government had not learned the lesson of history, or they would not have chosen as the moment for attack a moment when the people were inspired by that fear of God which expels every other fear. Mr. Lloyd- George added that Dr. Clifford had informed him that the Westbourne Grove Chapel was prepared to guarantee a hundred guineas to help the fight in Wales.

have jumped into the conclusion that there is an understanding between the leaders of both Unionist wings to dissolve early in the summer. Anyhow, the last speeches of both were intended to influence votes when the election does come. Significant Declarations. — Two leaders of London Nonconformity, both Passive Resisters, have declared themselves on the Education controversy, and how to settle it. Speaking of the Sunday School Union, the Rev. R. J. Campbell, of the City Temple, stated that he Was of opinion it was more than probable that before the next annual meeting of the Union a settlement would, at least, have been attempted, The lines upon which he thought that settlement would be produced are--( I) Secular education, with facilities for religious instruction, either in or out of school hours (2) Religious tests for teachers abolished. But though Mr. Campbell gave it as his opinion that such an attempt to settle the controversy will be made, he does not seem to be much in favour of such a basis, for he added, that he would dread a wholly secular education, unless the Sunday Schools rose to the occasion--a thing they had failed to do in Australia. In a letter written to the Secretary of the National Education Committee, a meeting of which body he was not able to attend, the Rev. Dr. Horton stated that he could not think that the two demands--( I) complete public control, and (2) freedom from religious tests, Would be enough. In his opinion the whole difficulty lies in the State, under modern con- ditions, attempting to give religious instruction. If education was to be efficient and national it must go its way unhampered by the religious Question. And, speaking as a Christian, he was Inclined to think that when the church--in the broad sense of that term-finds that on her alone, and not on the State, rests the onus of religious teaching, she would wake to a new zeal and find a new power.
