GRAND CHORALFESTIVAL IN BANGOR CATHEDRAL. There is an old adage, which experience has generally shewn to be a truism, that Novelty is charming." Al- though, perhaps, not quite so applicable to our phlegma- tic countrymen as to our more lively and volatile neigh- bours on the other side of the Channel, yet there is a certain craving after something new inseparable from the constitution of almost every human being of whatever age, sex, or condition. It is no less true with regard to matters of religion than to any other of the concerns of life, and, most generally, the wilder the vagary, the greater its attraction, and the more dangerous its ten- dency. fOl such novelties, happily, we have not now to speak, bat-rather of a change or modification of something that has previously existed, although, in a certain sense, it ia a novelty, and as such we must imagine the Choral Service in aur Cathedral, on Wednesday last, was re- girded, ovit eould not have attracted such a crowd of eager listeners within those sacred walls. An ordinary Service of our Welsh or English Cathedrals presents us with music which cannot fail to be inspiring and elevat- ing, except to him who hath not music in his soul.' These Services, however, are comparatively mean and unimpressive by reason of the stnallness of the choirs engaged in sustaining them, and the little assistance rendered by the congregation. Being less musical, and therefore less pretentious than our Roman Catholic friends on the Continent, we fail to produce the sublime effects generally realised in their Cathedrals, and we are comparative strangers to the almost overwhelming emo- tions pressed upon the mind by the grand harmonies of the German chorale when issuing from some five or six hundred voices. We, however, approximate to these things when, as last Wednesday, we manage to collect together a large number of voices well trained, and, as it were, in one school, an opportunity of the kind so rarely occurring may readily account for the anxiety of such numbers to be present. As the service to which we are referring was the first under what may be called a new system, it may not be out of place to say a few words as to the origin and progress of Diocesan Church Choral Associations. The idea is of comparatively modern (late, the first Ae. sociation having been formed at Cheadle, in the English diocese of Lichfield, in the year 1856, the object being to promote the study, and to improve the character of Church music. To effect this, unions of neighbouring arishes were to be formed, who should at stated times meet together for practice; district choir masters were to be appointed, whose business it should be to visit eaeh parish in turn, and a general meeting of the whole, or as many as could be got together, was to be held at leaatt)uce every year in certain districts, the Cathedral being made the central point at which the whole of the members, if possible, should occasionally assemble. In order to render such large gatherings possible, a uniform system of pointing in the Psalms, Canticles, &c., became indispensably necessary; it was also advisable that the same chant and psalm tunes should be used. With re- gard to the former, it is to be regretted that one uni- form system could not have been applied to the whole of the dioceses of England and Wales, so that, as the facilities of locomotion have so increased the number of travellers, each one on entering a new Church, or joining a fresh congregation, may have found him or herself equally at home whilst engaging in this most solemn part of the service. However, tot homines, tot senten- tilt, and, either from the obstinacy of precentors, or the rivalry of publishers, each diocese selected a particular pointing for itself. With regard to the music, the great popularity and extensive circulation of the Hymns Ancient and Modern" have done very much towards introducing one and the same collection of tunes through- out a very large portion of the country. The spirit of the Lichfield association soon spread, Lincoln being the next diocese in which a similar asso- ciation was formed and they now exist in, and are pa- tronised by the ecclesiastical authorities of It or 15 of our dioceses. That great good has been effected by the establishment of these institutions nobody who has paid the slightest attention to the matter can possibly deny. Great improvements have taken place in Church music during the last dozen years, and so greatly has the taate been cultivated and improved in this respect, that in almost every church and chapel of ease, of whatever sine, the dulcet tones of the cracked flute or the grunt- ing violoncello have yielded to the softer, richer, and more appropriate chords of the organ or harmonium, and scarcely anywhere now is the village church without its village choir who can chant the Psalms and Canti- cles, and perform au anthem too, it required, in better style than they could have been heard a few years ago in the large churches of some of our most populous pa. rishes. There is another pleasing feature in this revival of Church music, namely, that nearly all the choirs are formed of volunteer members of the congregation, who engage in the work purely from the love of it, whereby more heartfelt services are rendered, and a much larger number of the congregation are induced to join in them thau when four or five paid individuals occupied the organ loft, and, as was the case in many instances, did the singing for the whole congregation. Another advautage may be mentioned, which has arisen from the establishment of choral associations, and that is, that a more easy and simple character of music has been introduced into our churches, such as a whole congregation may easily join in, which should of course be the first consideration in selecting tunes either for chants or metrical hymns to be used in the worship of God. The more the system is developed, the greater, we believe, will be the advantage to our national Church, and therefore we think our venerable Prelate has done well and wisely in giving his countenance to the move- ment in this his diocese, which although now only con- fined to four districts may lead to the formation at a Dioceaan Association. And, now, to come to our great gathering of Wed- nesday last. It was truly cheering, and a hopeful sign of the times, to see our venerable Cathedral throw- ing wide its portals to receive large bodies of country choirs, who flocked to the mother church of the diocese to join iu singing God's praisea with united voices, and we may hope with united hearts. By such gatherings, not only is Church music benefitted throughout the country, but the Cathedrals are popularised and rendered more specially useful, and what is more important still, unity of song leads more or less natur !y to unity of religious feeling, and the Church of God i- ,flus strength- ened and edified. No lesa a number than460 members of the choirs of the four districts were present on the occasion they were arranged on the north and south sides of the nave, and were very well balanced. Mr. John Owen (Owain Alaw) presided at the org tu, and the conducting was entrusted to Mr. Roberts, of Carnarvon; both exercised their vo- cation with great talent. Exactly at 11 o'clock the Bishop entered, accompa- nied by the other dignitaries of the Cathedral and a great number of the Clergy in their surplices, the latter occupying seats within the Communion rails. The Prayers were intoned by the Rev. Charles Jones, Minor Cauon; the Lessons were read by the Very Rev. the B.mu of Bangor; aud the Litany intoned by the Rev. Dr. Hill, of Beaumaris, and the Rev. Charles Jones. Minor Canon. At the commencement of the Choral part of the ser- vice, there was considerable hesitation on the part of the singers, which continued until the Venite, when they got to understand each other better, and steadied them- selves down, so that from there to the end of the ser- vice everything was most satisfactory. Of course, the place and thejoccasion forbid anything like a critical notice of thelperf ormanoes, but we cannot help remarking upon the grand effaot of the verw of I the Te Deum," in unison, and also upon the wonder- ful pianuisi/iio obtained ou the words—" And guide our feet into the way of peace." The anthem was Farranta, Lord, for thy tender m erciei' sake," which was rendered with great correctness both as to time aud intonation. The hymns were selected from Hymm ancient and modern the first being Now thank we all our God and the one after sermon The Strain upraise most suitable for the conclusion of such a service. An eloquent and appropropriata sermon was preached by the Very Hev. the Dean of St. Asaph, from Psalm 9tj, part of the 9th verse, Worship the Lord in the beauty of holinesss." and after some preliminary remarks as to the impression conveyed by these words of the Reverence due to the Sanctuary of God and the solemni- ties of Public Worship, he proceeded to discourse on the special privilege and duty of Public Worship, and the tone and character in which divine service should be performed. Rogavding Public Worship as au act of homage due to God from the whole Church and nation, the advantage of Common Prayer, while it binds together in one communion and fel- lowship the whole family of God, enables the several members of the Church in their separate congrega- tions with one heart and one mouth to glorify God. A large part. of the service your Church consists of acts of praise and adoration, and the object of these choral meetiugs i, to teach the people in our country parishes the right use of the forms of praise interwoven with the liturgy, to instruct them in the part they should take in it and thereby create in them a greater interest in the services of the Church. The celebration of Public Worship a3 contrasted with private devotion, tends to bring us more into communion with the Holy Church throughout the world. It corrects the tender.ey to which we are all liable, of dwelling too exclusively on our own individual wants, and tits us for taking part in those petitions and joining in those themes of praise in which the whole body of Christians are interested. The words of the Psalmist also intimate to us the reverential tone, aud, at the same time, the jubilant cha- racter which should pervade our public worship. They were written oil the occasion of the bringing up of the Ark of God from the house of Obadiah, the Gittita- God's displeasure, manifested in the death of Uzzah, on the former removal of the Ark, had taught David a sa- lutary lesson and on this occasion he spared no pains to give all due solemnity to the holy service he was en- gaged in. He appointed singers and musicians, and had them carefully instructed, that they might give due expression to the praises of God. God's approval of such a service was implied inthewordsof the Psalmist, and was more strongly marked on a subsequent occasion at the dedication of the Temple of Solomon, when God's accep- tance of the solemn burst of praise, proceeding from the united voices of the people, was testified by the cloud, the symbol of His presence, filling the House of the Lord. The preacher argued, from these proofs of God s approval of such services, the duty of spiring no pains to render the public services in our Churches as perfect as our means will allow. God has given us a higher and nobler theme of praise thau was known by David and Solomon. He has put a new song into our mouths, which none can join in but those whom the Lord has redeemed. And they who til"e the high praises of God into their mouths a! ould be careful to shew forth that praise not only with their lips but in their lives. Without the melody of the heart, music and singing will find no acceptance with God; but the value of music, as an aid to divine service, is, that it draws forth our religious emotions and enables us to make melody in our hearts unto the Lord. The aid of music and singing renders the service of the Chutch more edifying and attractive and we may rea- sonably infer that not only the art of music, but all the gifts and accomplishments bestowed upon us, are not merely for the enjoyment of life, but should be devoted to the honour and glory of God, and they can be em- ployed to no higher or holier purpose than when they are adapted to the service of the Sanctuary. If we read the account of the Heavenly City, the New Jerusalem, with its walls of jasper and its gates of pearl, and the now song sung within it, we see how the Holy Scriptures appeal to our senses and feelings, in order to fill our thoughts with the beauty and magnificence of the unseen things above. And we may fairly argue from such descriptions that the beauties of music, and painting, and architecture, are not inconsistent with the tone and character of our worship in the Church on earth. Everything connected with the Church, where rich and poor meet together as in a common house, should be of a character to fill us with ideas of a happier, and brighter, and nobler existence than we can have on earth, that while we there join in singing the praises of God, we may cultivate those tastes and acquire that habit of mind which would fit us for the worship of the Church above." Shortly after the conclusion of the service about 450 of the choristers sat down to a substantial spread, pre- pared by Mr. and Mrs. Hughes, of the Albion Hotel, at the Penrhyn Hall. In the afternoon at three o'clock a seoond service took place entirely in Welsh and it was perfectly astonishing to notice the difference in the zest with which it was performed 111 comparison with the morning. This, no doubt, may be accounted for by the fact that a very large proportion of the choristers were Welsh, and in the use of their vernacular they felt greater freedom, and their sympathies were more deeply enlisted. There was indeed at times, to our mind, even too much gusto manifested in the chanting of the Psalms—for instance, it was one wild swoop from beginning to end, a torrent of sound, as the rushing of many waters, without a break and without a calm in musical phrase, there was not the slightest attention paid to pÙrnos and fortes. Upon the whole, however, the service went marvellously well, more free from hitches than in the morning. The Anthem was—" A bydd arwyddion," arranged by Owain A law, full nearly throughout, and was exceeding- ly well sung, with better attention to light and shade The hymns, as in the morning, were from the work of Hymns, Ancient and Modern," namely, "Aleluiahyr anwylaf;" and, after the sermon, "Dan dy fendith wrth ymadael." The Prayers were intoned by the Rev. C. Jones, Minor Canon and the Lessons read by the Rev. H. Wynne Jones, Pemnynydd. An admirable sermon was preached by the Very Hev. the Dean of Bangor, who selected as his text Psalm 1. 23. Yr hwn a abertha foliant a'm gogonedda i." "Whoso oft'ereth praise glorifieth me." After a few remarks in explanation of the text-shew- ing that if praise is to be an offeriug acceptable to God, it must comprehend the inward feeling of the heart,, as well as the outward expression of the lips, and after illustrating this truth by reference to the distinctive dif- ference between the offering of Cain and that of Abel,- the Dean proceeded to what constituted the principal subject of the sermon, viz., the place and importance which public worship, regarded as a means of groce, oc- cupies in the Christian dispensation. Besides the per- sonal benefits which accrue to individual souls from participation in public worship, we should not forget that it is the means whereby is preserved and strength- ened the one-iiess of those, who, whatever be their con- dition in life, are brought into covenant with Christ through His ordinance. Hence," the Dean observed, "my firm, unchanging belief, if those, who now stand apart from each other, were to meet and to asso- ciate together in public worship, with the great object of breaking down the existing barriers, unimportant as most of them are, that God's blessing would rest upon the effort, and that Christians would approach in their relations to each other much nearer to that standard which becomes them as members and brethren of Christ." Many present can doubtless testify to the truth of what has been said; they must be con- scious of having obtained much personal spiritual bene. fit through the instrumentality of public worship, of having been brought nearer, in feeling and act, to their neighbours through the use of common prayer and common praise, and through the joint reception of that pledge of Christ's infinite love which is vouchsafed at the same holy table. Well may it be hoped that to the penitent his conviction of the awful nature of sin, and of the necessity of repentance, has been deepened through what he has heard and ut- tered in the divine worship,—that to the devout mind the Spirit of God, working through the same means, has quickened his feelings and hopes respecting the bliss which awaits him hereafter,—that the broken spirit of the believer has been comforted, the weak-hearted up- 1 held, and the love of the Christian re-burnished and re- kindled, as if by fire from off the altar of God, and by the influence of His Spirit. While the personal benefit derived by individuals from public worship should not be lost sight of, never let the social character of the re- ligion of Christ be forgotten. We assemble together in the Sanctuary to worship and to glorify God, not as se- parate units, but as members of one spiritual society-a society which ought to be co-extensive with God's creation. How did the Saviour long for this blessed consummation, when fie prayed to His Hea- venly Father that those who professed His holy name should all be one,—i visible witness to the world that He established an everlasting kingdom which shall never be destroyed. This is the only true aspect under which we ought to regard the Church of Christ, as one society, as one body, and ourselves, if we are Christians in obedience as well as in profession, as members of that one body-mem- bers of Christ, the one.and only Head,—and, in con- sequence of that membership, members of each other. This one-ness with Christ, which is assured to us by Him in His own sacrament, viz., baptism, unless we become apostates from the faith, is the ground of our confidence when drawing near tofthelFather-of our per- sonal liberty to approach the throne of grace. Further- more, as being one with each other, for the very reason that we are one with Him, it is the privilege of true Christiana to appear before their heavenly Father, as one i brotherILood, out uabrokea nodety--4 [society which length of time or distance of place cannot affect-t society which no diffeence in language or country can inipaii-, which nothing can weaken, much less destroy, except the selfishness and the wilfulness of the members themselves. God forbid that anyone should knowingly do aught tending to such a result; rather may our Heavenly Father pour down upon each heart a larger measure of His spirit of love, and thus strengthen a desire for re-union, wherever the bond which binds Christ's society together may have been weakened or broken, Herein we have a safeguard S° n Four own natural selfishness and nafroW-mluded- ct-?f?stiv gazing upon that one Mnîmunion, S X?nip?w?h His ,PP»..U»d intended to abide alwap unto the end of the world, every Chrs- e? ancon?eg?n would consider itself, not M a self- ??independent body, but as the representative of ?o?i?i of tbe one Catho1ic body; andthusevery bnc h would pray for the whole body of the Church of Christ, m ? mi etn?tself to the world as belonging to the one Vine Then would be realised the profound meaning of thoee glorious words, "The holy Church throughout all the world doth acknowledge Thee-the Fatbei-ofan infi- nite majesty,tben the choirs in the Church of Christ would not be oontentious, as has been oftentimes the case but full of Christian forbearance and gentleness to- wards aach other, uniting together, as on this occasion, we may hope to form one large glorious choir. And this is one great object of this gathering of church singers, or—for the words are identical in meaning when nghtly understood—of Christian singers, to draw Christians nearer to each other; yea, to unite them, as it were, into one choir, even on earth, so that they might y be worthy through the blood of the Lamb not only to sing, but to sing together in that choir above, which, compre- hending as it will every language and every nation, no man can number. The sermon concluded with a pero- ration relating to the present privileges of Christ- ian worshippers-how that in the work of praising God the partition WAII between heaven and earth is, as it were, removed, the dividing interval bridged over. True, that, free from all im- perfections, the spirits before the Throne have no need of forgiveness, nor therefore prayer; sti l in that other portion of worship, which restarts from love and not from fear, from thankfulness and 'bDt from tion. our sympathies and feelings may mingle with their, aud thus ascend together before the Godhead yea, with angels and archangels and all the company of heaven we may laud and magnify his glorious name, evermore praising him, and saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Hosts; heaven and earth are full of thy glory: glory be to thee 0 Lord most High." Think, my friends, of this great privilege of praising God in the congregation of the saints-of singing with the angels of God and the spirits of just men made per- fect. 0, may you all appreciate and value this privilege. Whatever differences, my Christian friends, may exist in other matters, agree at least in this-in praisin" the great Creator, the blessed Redeemer, and the holy Comforter. And should anyone among you be tempted to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, let him bear in mind that he has nothing but what he has received, and that the best singer in the sight of God is not of necessity the man gifted with the best voice, but he who with the voice pours out his full heart before Him in other words, the praise which the love of Christ calls forth from the faithful communicant is the most pleasing to God. "Whoso ofifereth praise glorifieth me." And remember, dear brethren, that he who is united in the c osest bond of communion with his fellow-Christians as co-members of Christ, will be most worthy in Christ to approach the Throne of the Father to offer Him acceptable praise." We are glad to say that both services were very well attended, and now, in bringing to a conclusion our very lengthy notice of this great and important meeting, we have only a few comments to make. Everybody who attended the Ser- vices must have been satisfied that this first effort at combined action was a great success, one which may well lead to the establishment of a Diocesan Association, such as those to which we have alluded to in the open- ing of this article, which indeed are the same in principle, but upon a more extended scale. Again, nobody can doubt the advantage of meetings like the present, as tending to the higher cultivation of Church music, and the promotion of the Church's welfare. The various I choirs are not only brought into friendly rivalry, but into more social Christian intercourse. The sublime simplicity of the music-if we may be allowed the seem- ing paradox—must have struck the commonest listener. We are aware that some persons were disappointed that some of the grand choruses from the Messiah or Creation" were not introduced. If they had been at- tempted, the probability is that a grand failure would have attended such a flight of ambition; but indepen- dently of this, it would have been incompatible with the object and intent of the Association, which is to promote congregational singing. We will also venture to say that, however magical may be the effect upon the feelings of a grand perform- ance of the Hallelujah," The Heavens are telling," or other similar productions of such mighty minds as Handel, Haydn, Mendelssohn, &c., no class of music could produce upon the soul a holier calm or loftier in- spirations than the simple hymn "The strain uprawe, the melody of which really consists but of five notes in the most ordinary sequence possible. If any heart could be insensible to the thrilling Alleluia" which rolled iu one grand volume of harmony through the great Cathe- dral nave, it must truly have been one most unenvi- ably constituted. It formed, to our minds, the most heart-stirring portion of the whole service. It might be that- The inward sighs of humble penitence Rise to the ear of Heaven when pealed hymns > Are scattered with the sounds of common air." But of music such as this it may surelyr be said Unto devotion thou dost furnish wings, Making it soar above the things of earth; With thee, the soul unto the fountain springs, Which shall renew it to a second birth."

RECOLLECTIONS OF THE LATE EISTEDDFOD AT LLANDUDNO. To the Editor of the North Wales Chronicle. Sir,-N ow that the Eisteddfod has come aud gone," will you permit me as an unbiassed "Saxon," but who has a sneaking regard for the Cymry, to make a few remarks in reference to it. The object of an Eisteddfod is stated to be the culti- ration of music, poetry, and general literature, by means of public competition, aud they are especially designed to benefit the lower and middle classes of the population. This last object was particularly pointed out by several This last ob j ect w, oft he speakers. Believing the above to be the legitimate object of the great gathering," a great number of the English visitors patronised it, so that the five-shilling stalls were occu- pied chiefly by them. There was also a fair sprinkling of visitors in the first-class seats. I am also given to un- derstand that a great many English names aro to be found in the list of subscribers. Now I believe I heard most of the speeches which were delivered during the whole of the four days, and very eloquent most of the orations were; but strange to say, there was not one speech, made in English, which more or less did not draw invidious comparisons between the English and the Welsh, and certainly to the glorifi. fication of the latter and the disparagement of the former. f° Now, from whence arose the necessity for this ? Mr Kilsby Jones explained that an Eisteddfod was the Welshman's "Derby-Day a sort of "Punch and Judy" entertainment, and this, if it be so, is all right enoug; but what I want to know is—why the Welsh cannot indulge in a literary jollification, in an "intellc- tual spree." without heaping abuse upou their neigh- bours, aud making invidious comparisons ? The orators spoke of "oppression," of a brave people being" con. quered," "down-trodden; of invasion and so on- very sad things in themselves, were they to be a reality and not a mythical assumption used as a clap-trap; but 1 and others understood that the Eisteddfod was a great literary and musical meeting, held for the purposes above detailed, and not for the inculcation of political faith or the formation of pelitical principle. That is what the outside jworld was given to understand an Eis- teddfod was for. Of course, the English part of the audience, who at- tended the Eisteddfod for amusement must have been very much astonished, to say the least of it, to find themselves and their nation the object of so much" at. tention," not to say vituperation, simply because they had not calculated upon it. They went there to hear Welsh poetry and Welsh music, and they were treated with Welsh abuse and Welsh disparagement—to eulo- gium on one section of the Queen's subjects and dis- praise on the other. I should think they must have been ashamed to have been Saxons, and with not having been born on the banks of the Conway instead of the Thames or the Med way. If these were not their feel- ings, no thanks to the Welsh orators who addressed the National Eisteddfod at Conway. I wish to ask those orators—what object did they propose to themselves to obtain by this fiery display of patriotism ? Likewise, leaving the question of good taste in abeyance, was it good and sound policy thus to rail, indirectly, against parties, who, by their presence, were assisting them to make up a respectable balance sheet 1 Are the promotion of Welsh literature and the abuse of Englishmen, synonymous terms in the Welsh Vooabularly ? Amongst the foremost of these indignant patriots was a young clergyman, who has got a fat living aomewher# in England, and who seems to get oil very well indeed amongst the oppressors of his Country and his country- men. He was eloquent beyond comparison in defence of the rights of the Mother Land," and of the Mo- ther Land's language, whilst, singular to relate, he can- not speak the language himself. At all events he cannot correctly quote its proverbs. Do you not think, Sir, that this looks a little bit ungrateful ? Whoever else may have just cause to complain, he certainly has not, and yet he eomplaiued louder than anybody else! Nor were theM)" odious comparisons between the two peoples at all confined to the general meetings in the pavillion-they permeated into the subjects discussed at the Social Science Meetings, at which none but men of station and ability attended. The question chiefly dis- cussed was the means to be adopted to promote a bet- ter system as of education for the middle classes in Wales -a really important subject for discussion, and %,hicli was most ably introduced by Dr. Nicholas, of Carmar- then. th The first speaker was the Rev. W. Jones; and he be- gan by affirming that Dr. Nicholas was wrong in assum- ing that the Welsh were behind the English, and defend- ed Welsh Juries by ridiculing English ones; and ill this he was supported by the next speaker, Glan Alun. Other speakers followed in the same strain, evidently thinking a good deal more of the English than they did of the subject matter under discussion. This went on until even Glan Alun perceived its absurdity, when lie rose up and asked the meeting to speak right to the subject before them, and never to mind making comparisons be- tween the English and the Welsh That is, he asked them not to do what he himself had set them an exam- ple of doing! Rather cool this, I thought at the time. It is well for a people to have a noble history; it is well to love one's country and the land of our birth it is well to foster a love for literature, music, poetry, and the fine arts, because they one and all tend to refine, elevate, and civilise; but it is not well to foster past an- imosities between races who have long lived in peace and amity together, and which daily are becoming more closelyjuuited in the bonds of friendship and good fellow- ship-I say this is not well, and more particularly when it is effected under the mask of promoting alove of liter- ature, 4c. amongst the people: and this, too, by gentle- men, many of whom who really are as much English as ,they are Welsh. I "Doubtless, there was no intention to offend tlw En- trlUi were present; but how were the English, who could knoV but little of the idiosyncracies of the Welsh people, to undef.ifc'ind that-how could they possibly tell that all this fiery 'tatory and self glorific"tion was only a way which the Welst1,¡;¡ards and orators have just once a year, because the Welsh^tfierenjoy it and it does no harm to any one? If itiiatf be done, why not speak it in Welsh-why insult the b3- means of and through their own language—ttft« adding Insult ?king it altogether I think the Eiste?odwasa comparative failure, in a musical as well as inW» finan- cial point of view. There was no spirit exhibited fum the beginning to the end; and the concerts, with the exception of the one held on the first night, were miser- ably flat affairs, and caused no enthusiasm,—except in the pages of the Carnarvon Herald, and there they were prodigious successes 1 The singers, male and female, appeared ta sing what they really cared nothing about, and this, I think, was the actual fact; whilst the in- instrumentalists seemed to be placed in pretty much the same predicament. With the exception of a solo on the violin and two on the cornet, I did not hear one burst of genuine enthusiasm during the entire meeting, so far as the music was concerned. Even Pencerdd Gwalia" who is a magnificent harpist usually, did not form an exception to the dull mediocrity which pervaded the whole meeting. As for the Cantatas,, which it has become the fashion for all newspaper correspondents to laud, they were wretched things to be sung before an audience of G000 people, hundreds of whom had to pay 4s. and os. each, to listen to them. For the sake of Eisteddfodau and their future success, I hope we have heard the last of them. It is my opinion that if the sub- jects had not been Welsh, and the composers personal favourites, they would not have been selected to be sung at all,—for their merits, as musical compositions, are below mediocrity. I must here make one or two exceptions to the above sweeping remarks, as it regards the music. The Holy. head band played remarkably well, in their competitive piece; and one or two young men played the harp well and in a masterly manner. Little Miss Owen, of Portdinonvig, sang wonderfully well for so young a child, and created quite a furore. I was very glad indeed to find that she is to be sent to a musical Academy, as her talent is undoubted, and much praise is due to the two kind ladies for their prompt philanthropy. The chief incident of the meeting, was the speech of the Rev. Geo. Dawson, of Birmingham, who, being on the platform, was desired to make a speech. This he did not do; but the few words which he did say somewhat startled the Welsh orators," who never ex- pected that an Englishman would say a word in favour of his country in a meeting of Welsh Bards and Ovates, to say nothing of an Arch Druid! They were mistaken if they so calculated, and some of them will remember the biting nature of his retort for some time to come, I fancy. It was too bad of Mr. Dawson, though, to speak the truth so very plainly. "Truth against the World," is a capital maxim at a Gorsedd, or to put on a banner; bnt in every-day life, it occasionally leads to very awk. ward results. The very best thing belonging to the Eisteddfod was the building in which it was held, and it is a great pity that it cannot be kept up permanently; but it is really two large for anything except a circus-certainly too large for the late Eisteddfod. It was generally admired by every one—Englishmen and Welshmen alike; its only fault was that it did not-pay. That is the only thing which can be said against it. The ceremonies connected with the Gorsedd, caused a good deal of merriment amongst the visitors, who looked upon them as meaningless mummeries-foolish and ridiculous. For myself, I think they went a little too far in this, because they did no harm to anybody. The ibest bit of fun about them was this, that the ce- remonious formalities were carried out by two gentle- men, whose religious creed it is to dispiee all ceremonies whatsoever, as being uu-Chnstian,—Prolatical and Pa- pistical. What if some wag were to tell Gwalchmai that the Gorsedd ceremonies were based upon neither one nor the other, but were purely Paganical,-what would the historian of LIandudno reply to that ? I think, too, that some one should give CIwydfardd a friendly hint to practise the s -.vord trick" a little more before the next Eisteddfod, or he will have all the Rifle Volun- teers in and around Aberystwith laughing at him for a certainty. There are swords which will cut both ways, and I fancy the Gorsedd weapon is one of them. It is said that the Eisteddfod frightened away a great many of the visitors from Llandudno-as was prognos- tigated; but this I can scarcely bring myself to believe. Some of the English are exclusive and tetchy enough, I know; but surely they cannot be so very thin-skinned as this. The town was only crowded one day (on the Thursday) and even then I did not learn that any of the dreaded bards forcibly entered into any one's private apartments. Besides, a few thousands of people extra, in a town like Llandudno, would not make any percep- tible difference, and with the exception of a few full streets on the Thursday, there was no apparent difference. If, therefore the number of visitors to Llandudno has since become much less, which I am told is the case, the weather, and the time of year, have had much more to do with it than has the Eisteddfod. In conclusion, may I be permitted to give the Coun- cil a hint. In money matters, the Eisteddfod has proved a failure would it not answer, in a pecuniary sense, to lower the prices for tickets of admission ? Five shillings to hear but a moderate concert is too heavy a price for any but rich people to pay and tickets for Is. 6d. would pay better than empty benches. Yours, &c., A SAXON. September 7, 1864.

I THE CHURCH AT LLANDUDNO.

I THE CHURCH AT LLANDUDNO. I To the Editor of the North Walet Chronicle. gir x wish, as a visitor, to make a few remarks on the state of Church affairs at Llaududno. That the Church is neither represented as she ought to be, or fairly developed, no one who looks impartially at facts can deny. It appears to me that while Dissenting schemes are taken up energetically by their various congregations, those of Church extension are either treated with dis- graceful indifference, or pooh-poohed altogether. It is now a long time since we were promised a New Church, but nothing whatever has been done. I should like to know how much money has been collected, and to what purposes that money is being applied ? As it is a noted fact that there are funds—why not have built a temporary Church to serve till the sum required was raised to build the permanent one ? Would not this have been better than as we do now worship the Al- mighty either in a Pavilion, used and built for a National festival, or in a Music Hall, "consecrated" for Christy's Minstrels, and concerts. Does this, or does it not, shew the influence and wealth of the Church of England ? Can we wonder that Dissenting heresy abounds when in Llandudno proper, there is only one Church, and that holding only 500 people. Churchmen require waking up to the fact that the Anglican Communion, the "State Establishment," is miserably represented both in North and South Wales that Dissent is far ahead in energy and work, and that unless they take prompt and deoisive measures, the Welsh Church will no more be the Church of the Welsh people than the Irish Establishment is of the Irish people, aA4 tlaat is saying a great deal. There is a second point ou Church matters I would wish to dwell on, i.e. that the unbiMsed plain rules of the Prayer Book are completely set aside. Let us hope in the new Church some little attention will be paid to the Prayer Book; let us hope too that the Church's system, i.e. "in accordance with the godly and decent order of the ancient fathers, will be carried out more completely than it has been. The Prayer Book says, Morning and Evening prayer to be Mid daily throughout the year," we here get neither one or the other. The Prayer Book says, the Litany on Wednesdays and Fridays." I am afraid the plain rule here of our office book is disregarded also. The Prayer Book says, Upon the Sundays, and other holydays, if there be no communion, shall be said all I that is appointed at the communion, untili the end of the general Prayer for the whole state of Christ s Church militant on earth, together with one or more of those collects last before rehearsed, concluding with the blessing and yet in direct defiance of this, the clergy dismiss the people directly after the sermon, as if the discourse for Ladies and Gentlemen, was the chief and central act of christian worship. u In accordance with the godly and decent order of the ancient fathers." Now what was this "godly and decent order, &c. ? The first point and the fact which strikes us most is, that the ancient Christians never met together for public worship without the blessed Sacrament, the chief act of Christian worship, the only distinctive Christian rite, being celebrated.. Morning Prayer is very beautiful no doubt, (if render- ed exactly in accordance with the Prayer Book), but it is man's device invented when the sacrifice was negleated, and the "love of many had grown cold," The Holy Communion is the Divinely appointed worship of GOD'S Catholic Church and yet we find Almighty GOD, and I can use no milder expression, so scorned, that even in Cathedrals "the pattern church of the diocese, and in numberless Parish Churches, we fineI the Ille,.ied Sacra. ment only celebrated once a montu.9 The Cathedral, the p, ttern church of the diocese," -pattern, perhap, in sloveliness and carelessness, and most truly the diocese, for the most part, have followed their pattern church. ?'us then. ?<? we have built our church, end?avour to get before the Welsh people, what the Welsh Church really is let no svstem of exclusiveness keep the poor from their share of worship of Almighty GOD. One would think in going into many of our Churches, that we only allow one class of people to worship GOD, for nothing but cushioned pews, and well-bound Prayer Books meets the eye, but we are told there are poor, and where do we find them ? Oh, huddled up in "free seats under galleries, and inside aisles. "quite good enough for them you know." Very good, and where do we fiíld them on the continent, flocking at all hours to hear the Church's worship, to join in the adoration of the Lanil), for the Church's Gospel abroad is free to all it is with- out money and without price." A nd we cant about all being equal within the Church's gate; we say so, and we like it in theorn, but we hate it in practice. 1 would wish that the Church's fasts and festivals, be observed in accordance with the Prayer Book, and the seasons marked by services cheerful and attractive, so that the worship of GOD will be an offering not only of our souls, but also of our bodies. In fine let the Church's nile and system be pr"perly CM?ied out, and Dissent will die ,mt here, as it has where treated "'the same manner elsewhere. Th? "Widents seem to think that it is the duty of the yi??Jmild the new Church. I say this duty belong •^JeSleSSS^ing in it, I suppose, for the glory The l'esident s Dotlung m it I SUPPOS( for the -Ioi,y of Sdffis C^ch No. It IS entirely a question of accommodation forhe Visit?rô, and if they wish  they ?tust proV1de them for themselves and pay for it. \11 ?quL?hether this w?cd id.a would hold good anywhere else.

I LLANFAIRFECHAN. DEATH OF DR. KEHANS.—We have the melancholytaek this week of recording the death of Dr- Kerans, of this village, after about a month's illness (bram fever) which sad event took place on Wednesday morning last, at his residence, "The Cottage." Dr Kerans was one of those men who are not often to be met with in this dull, hard, prosaiac world of ours Kindness, opeo-heartedness, and open-handedness were the chief features of his social character; whilst he had a fine cultivated intellect, a shrewd perception, and no small amount of harmless wit and humour. He was also, we are given to understand, well skilled in his profession- With the qualities above enumerated, he was a general favourite with everybody from the Cottage to the Mansion and his smiling, beam- ing, intellectual, open countenance was always welcome at every hearth. His loss we feel sure will be long felt by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance, who mourn after him as if they had lost a favourite brother or sister, to say nothing of his inconsolable wife and family, the poignancy of whose sorrow no one can describe. The deceased was an Irishman by birth and for some time he practised at Beaumaris, and more recently at Penmaen- mawr, from whence he removed a few months ago to Llan- fairfechan, as being in a more central position. He died at the early age of 52-in the very bloom of manhood, and up to the sickness which terminated fatally, he ap- peared a particularly hale and hearty man. His remains were interred in Llanfairfechnn Church-yard, early on the morning of Friday. The funeral was strictly private, the arrangements being carried out under the management of Mr-Griffith Davies, draper, Bangor. His was a soul of fire that burned, Too soon for us, its earthly tent; But not too soon for him, returned To Him from whom it first was sent: jSrave, keep his ashes, till redeemed from thee, This mortal puts on Immortality.

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN…

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN TRADE DURING THE PAST WEEK. A return to hot vfesther at the commencement of the last week, after some cold MId frost experienced in the previous, was favourable to the late gathering, but not to the pastures or esculents; and though the Weather now seems broken, much more rain will be wanted for the succesful tillage of the soil. In Scotland and Ireland considerable progress his been made, and some fine samples of oats have been produced from the latter country, though in some localities there has been a deficiency of weight, and the mills have been stopped for want of water. Po- tatoes here have been much lessened in quantity, the bulk this year being small, though generally healthy. Prices yet rule high compared with wheat, and are likely to do so, unless heavy shipments come from the continent. Northern Europe has been somewhat in jeopardy respecting the cereal crops, rough weather having prevailed, and some of the wheat has sprouted. Had it not been for the dull reports from England and France, the markets would in all probability have risen. The same un. toward weather has been reported in Holland and Belgium, which has kept prices from declining, though most of the corn there has been secured. In France the markets sectu to be in a temporary lull, growers being indifferent about sales, and bay- ers not caring to operate, except in retail. At Montreal the dull reports from Great Britain have produced some decline, more especially as Canada is now expectel to yield a fair average. At New York the incessant fluctuations in the value of gold and the exchange, produce like regularities in prices though wheat and flour of fine quality have lately risen, a decline In freights being favourable to shippers. But the depredations of the new pri- vateer Tallahassee has almost prostrated the carrying trade ia American bottoms, and we hope will prove another argument for a return to peace, a question which now seems to gain ad. herents day by day in all places.

I LIVERPOOL CORN, EXCRkNGE.-TuEsDiy. Our imports this week have not on so large a scale as last but of American wheat and round corn they are still in ex- cess of the demand; flour is in moderate supply. The receipts of all other article, are liht except of new oats which are coming forward rather more freely from Ireland. The export list is much nn the usual scale, but the shipments are mostly confined to Ireland and coastwise. The American markets shew an upward tendency, by our last advices: the operating influences being unfavourable harvest Drospects, and decreasing receipts from the interior. No change ha< occnrrcd in prices since our last market, except in Indian corn, which being rath r pressed for sale: has given way about 3rt per quarter. At Mark Lane yesterday both English and Foreign wheat supported last Monday's rates, but not freely. We have had only a small attendance of millers and dealen at our Corn Exchange to-day and the demand for wheat has been of the most retail character at barely the ratea of Fridiy last. Flour very difficult to move, but we cannot buy fine fresh par- cels any cheaper. Indian corn has declined 3d per quarter with a fair consumptive enquiry. Oats and oatmoal quiet, without chanze in value. PeLLse and barley must be quoted the turn easier.
