The thanks of the committee were unanimously given to Mr Willett for his liberal offer. As the official programme is on the point of being published:it is earnestly hoped that those desirous of patronising the national institution by giving prizes in any of the departments will kindly place themselves in early communication with the secretary, Mr J. R. Lewis. It is satis- factory to know that all the committees are doing their work in a thoroughly harmonious manner with the sole aim of making the eisteddfod of 1885 a grand success.
