Am Gymry Llundain. Y SENEDD.—Daeth mwyafrif yr aelodau Cymreig i'r ddinas ddechreu'r wythnos er mwyn cymeryd rhan yn agoriad y Ty ddydd Mawrth, ac mae argoelion y ca'nt dymhor lied fywiog hefyd. YR ABSENOLION.-Ychydig oedd nifer yr absenolion, ond yr oeddent yn rhy liosog ar dymhor mor bwysig a hwn. Gan fod yr Etholiad Cyffredinol yn y gwynt, mae'n debyg y deuant oil at eu gwaith cyn diwedd yr wythnos. LLEIHAU EU NIFER.-Gan fod ym mryd y Llywodraeth bresenol i ad-drefnu yr etholaethau yn ol rhif y boblogaeth, y mae pob argoelion y cyll Cymru ddau neu dri o aelodau os llwyddir i fyned a'r mesur drwodd. MR. SAM EVANS, A.S.-Cymer priodas yr aelod poblogaidd hwn le dydd Mawrth nesaf. Yn Nghapel Ymneillduol King's Weigh House y cymer y seremoni Ie, ac ar derfyn y gwasan- aeth yn y capel aiff y parti i'r Hyde Park Hotel, lie rhoddir y wledd briodasol. GWYL DEWI. — Cynhelir cinio blynyddol Cymdeithas Anrhydeddus yr Hen Frythoniaid yn yr Holborn Restaurant eleni fel arfer, a llywyddir y wledd gan Syr Powlett Mill bank, Barwnig, Arglwydd Raglaw Swydd Faesyfed. Yr oedd Arglwydd Powis wedi addaw bod yn bresenol, ond deallwn fod ei iechyd mor fregus nas gall fyned allan i giniawau ar hyn o bryd. Y DIWYGIAD.—Yn Nghymru yr eisteddfod sydd wedi gorfod rhoddi ffordd i'r cyrddau diwygiadol, ond y mae cynulliadau mawr Mri. Torrey ac Alexander wedi gorfod aros er mwyn rhoddi lie i'r hen wyl Gymreig. Bydd yn ddyddorol i wylied pa fath ganu a geir yn y lie gan y Cymry, oherwydd hyd yn awr nid yw'r tonau diwygiadol wedi gadael fawr o argraff ar eu holau. Y PARCH. PETER H. GRIFFITHS.-Bydd yn llawen gan gannoedd o gyfeillion y gwr da hwn ddeall ei fod yn graddol wella o'r cystudd maith a chwerw a gafodd yn ddiweddar, ac y disgwylir iddo gael adferiad llwyr o'i lesgedd erbyn diwedd yr haf. Cyn bo hir aiff Mr. Griffiths i hinsawdd gynes er ennill nerth, ac ar ol gor- phwys rhai misoedd disgwylia y gall gymeryd at ei orchwylion fel cynt.. CYNHAUAF Y DIWYGIAD. — Caed erthygl amserol ar y mater hwn yn y Daily Chronicle ddydd Sadwrn diweddaf gan y Parch. H. Elvet Lewis. Dyma yn ddiau un o bynciau penaf yr eglwysi o hyn allan, fydd sut i ofalu am y dychweledigion. Os gofelir mewn pryd fe all ein harweinwyr crefyddol hau cynhauaf rhag- orol o'r mudiad presenol, ond os eir i orphwys ar siarad a gweddio yn unig yna ni raid disgwyl ond am lu mawr o wrthgilwyr. YR EFFAITH YN LLUNDAIN.-Mae'r cylch- oedd Cymreig wedi derbyn lleshad dirfawr oddiwrth y don ysbrydol bresenol sydd wedi dyfod tros yr eglwysi, ac mae'r cyrddau gweddi yn parhau yn eu hwyl mewn ami i gapel eto. Y mae un agwedd i'r mudiad er hynny sydd yn dra gwahanol yma i'r hyn ydyw yn yr Hen Wlad. Yno y Gymraeg sydd yn ennill tir yn yr eglwysi, ac oherwydd hyny mae'r bobl yn dod yn fwy crefyddol, ond yn Llundain rhoddir gormod o le o lawer i emynau a chaneuon Seisnig, yr hyn a wna'r gwasanaethau yn fwy oeraidd ac yn dra arddangosiadol. Dyma ein gwendid yn y ddinas yma, ac os eir i fwyhau y drwg yma ni raid disgwyl ond am fethiant llwyr. Y CLWB.—Mae'r pwyllgor a benodwyd erg, peth amser yn ol i wneyd ymchwiliadau ynglyn a chael clwb at wasanaeth y Cymry wedi cael addewid am ystafelloedd cyfleus yn agos i'r National Liberal Club. Bydd eisieu rhyw fil o bunau er dodrefnu y rhain, ac mae mudiad ar droed meddir er sicrhau arian at yr achos. Yr ydym yn credu mai doethineb fai i'r pwyllgor ddwyn y mater o flaen cwrdd cyhoeddus arall, er cael barn y Cymry'n gyffredinol a fyddai'r lie yn gyfleus, a pha ragolygon sydd am sicrhau aelodaeth o bum cant yn ol tua dau gini yr aelod. DRAMA NEWYDD.—Deallwn fod y ddrama Gymreig newydd sydd wedi bod ar waith gan y cerddor Mr. Vincent Thomas a'r bardd Ernest Rhys yn awr wedi ei chwblhau, ac y ceir clywed y gwaith yn gyhoeddus cyn diwedd y tymhor presenol. MISS ELLENOR WILLIAMS.—Oddiwrth lyth- yrau diweddaf yr efengyles hon daw'r hanes fod y Diwygiad Cymreig wedi cyrhaedd i eglwysi'r America hefyd. Mewn amryw gyfarfodydd y bu'n anerch yn ddiweddar caed profiadau ysbrydol tebyg iawn i'r hyn a deimlir yng Nghymru, ac mae'r gwrthgilwyr yn dod yn ol wrth yr ugeiniau mewn amryw o ardaloedd. 0 dipyn i beth fe ennillir yr holl fyd i Grist. MAE Mr. J. R. Griffiths, Mus. Bac., organydd Eglwys Crist, Westminster Bridge Road, wedi gorfod ymddiswyddo oblegid afiechyd trwm ei briod. Os nad ydym yn camsynio, brodor o

made it impossible for him to express those views from a public platform. This denial may mean little, or it may mean much. There have been rumours for some time that there is a tacit understanding in the party that the first offer of leadership shall be made to the noble Earl. He is more likely than anyone else to unite the different sections, for he has stood without all sections during the last seven or eight years. Earl Spencer cannot be called a brilliant politician, but that may be a very strong qualifi- cation for the part of Premier just now. Brilliancy has led the country into a sore and sad state, and it needs a sane mind to redeem and save it. The Missing Antarctic Expedition.—Some time ago a French expedition under Dr. Charcot went out to search for the South Pole. Later the Argentine sloop of war, "Uruguay," went into the same region to search for news of the ex- pedition. That sloop has just returned to Buenos Ayres without any news, after exper- iencing terrible times. It managed to reach 64 deg. 57 min. south latitude, sailing through 600 miles of ice, and encountering unspeakable perils from monster icebergs. It had been ar- ranged that the explorers should leave messages at different points, but none were found, nor any trace whatsoever of them. The Argentine officers fear that all of them have been lost in the terrible storms, that raged in the southern regions in April of last year. We cannot see that finding the poles of the earth is of sufficient scientific importance to justify these continual sacrifices of valuable lives. The earth will turn on its axis just the same whether we under- stand the whole process or not. But all this goes to prove that man is still a child, however scientific he may become. The strongest element in his nature is curiosity even science cannot change that any more than it can change the skin of the Ethiopian. Lord Hugh Cecil.- The Conservatives, or rather, the Chamberlainites of Greenwich, have given the son of the late Lord Salisbury and first cousin of the Prime Minister, notice to quit. They have asked him to retire from the representation of the borough. The only reason for this extreme action is to be found in the fact that Lord Hugh is a Free Fooder, and will not bow the knee to the god of Highbury. He has not changed his political views in the least. In every respects he remains faithful to the traditions of the famous stock of Hatfield. What the result may be we do not know. Lord Hugh is a born fighter in spite of his ascetic appearance, and no Cecil has yet allowed him- self to be worsted by a man of yesterday. What will the Prime Minister do ? Will he, after saying so often that Tariff Reform is not a test question at present, allow his kinsman, to whom his party owes so much, be cast aside without a

protest ? Or will he remain in a state of "philosophic doubt" about interfering until the mischief is completed ? Last of St. James's Hall.-London Welshmen in common with a large number of other dwellers in the Metropolis, will regret that the well-known hall in Piccadilly is not to exist many days longer. Many notable Welsh gatherings have been held within its walls. It was in St. James's that Mr. John Thomas, the Royal Harpist, gave his first Welsh concert in 1862, when Madame Edith Wynne made her debut. Many leading men have dealt with burning Welsh questions, such as Disestablish- ment and Education, from that platform. On one of those occasions Mr. Asquith made a speech that clearly marked him out for Cabinet office-one of the very few speeches he did make before Mr. Gladstone put him in the Home Office. And Welshmen cannot forget that it was in St. James's Hall their illustrious fellow-countryman, Hugh Price Hughes, founded the West London Mission, and made its walls echo for many years with the glad tidings he preached so well. All these associations will remain long after the edifice is destroyed. Another Welsh Inquiry.-The Committee of Council under the presidency of Lord Balfour of Burleigh, appointed to decide the locale of the Welsh National Library and National Museum will not have a too easy task. There are three Welsh towns at least that possess very strong claims --Carnarvon, Aberystwyth, and Cardiff. Carnarvon on the ground of its being an historic town, its records going back to the days of the Romans. Aber- ystwyth on the ground of its central position, being situated almost on the dividing line between North and South; and Cardiff on the ground of its large population. We may trust the people of the three towns to present the best case possible. The Committee is a strong one, and its chairman at least is well acquainted with Wales, he having visited almost every place of any importance within its borders some years ago as president of the Sunday Closing Commission. It may be that the committee will decide in favour of placing the Museum in one town and the Library in another. It is not essential in anyway that both should be together. And should they come to that decision, then Cardiff perhaps would be the most suitable place for the Museum. But whether Aber- ystwyth or Carnarvon should have the Library is a question we have not the courage to answer.
