" Oes y Byd i'r laith Gymraeg."
The Fifth Anniversary of this Society has passed away,
and, viewed from whatever point, it was by far the most
interesting of the series. The fact of a Breton Deputation,
appointed by Louis Phillippe, King of the French, attending
this Anniversary, for the purpose of claiming kindred as Armo-
ricans, with the inhabitants of Cambria, is a circumstance which
in its character, stands alone in the history of the world. For
we do not recollect any instance of a colony, separated from
the mother country for many centuries, sending a deputa-
tion of her sons to the land of their common origin, and re-
tying the knot of fraternal affection : the visit, therefore, of
Monsieur le Comte de la Ville Marque, Mons. Jueles de
Francheville, Mons. de Jacquelot, Mons. du Marhallach,
and Mons. de Manduit, would alone invest the Cymreigyd-
dion meeting with a peculiar interest. But the Festival of-
fered other powerful attractions. To the strangerit presented
views of nationality as novel as striking— to the Cymry its ef-
fects were of the most spirit-stirring character. Indeed, the
enthusiasm which every Welshman, and Welshwoman too,
from the worthy President, Sir Charles Morgan, to the
humblest dweller on the mountain, displayed throughout
the whol.e proceedings, defeats description. M. le Comte
de la Ville Marque, the head of the Deputation, appears
about 35 years of age, of very slender frame, and is below
the middle stature ; he is in very delicate health, but
his ample forehead, his dark, his liquid and expressive

Wednesday was the first day of the " Eisteddfod," but
for several days previous, both the town and neighbourhood
of Abergavenny became unusually animated by new arrivals.
The hospitality of the worthy Baronet of Tredegar, Sir C.
Morgan, or, in the faithful description of the Welsh lan-
guage, the Ivor of the Ivors, or the generous of the generous;
and of the Honourable and talented Member for Mary-
le-bone, Sir Benjamin Hall, of Llanover Court, Bart.,
as well as of the Llanarth family, and others of the
neighbouring gentry, were active in welcoming the
Bretons, and many of the first personages of the Prin-
cipality and English border counties. Nor was the
hospitality of the inhabitants of the town of Aber-
gavenny dormant ; visitors from all parts of the country
were daily arriving, to receive the hearty welcome of their
friends, and to participate in the general gratification to be
afforded by a most glorious " Eisteddfod." The Committee
of Management had on the preceding day made their pre-
parations, and by nine o'clock on Wednesday morning,
everything was ready for the commencement of the pro-
ceedings. The morning was cloudy, and fears were enter-
tained of unfavourable weather ; but happily those fears
were dissipated, and the weather was fine to the end of the
Festival.

At ten o'clock the bells notified that the time had arrived
when, according to appointment, the procession was to
move, in order to meet the distinguished President, Sir
Charles Morgan. Accordingly, it began its march in the
following

In this order the procession marched to Spittey, about a
mile distant from the town. Many of the houses were de-
corated with evergreens, and a splendid arch of oak and
laurel was thrown over the road at the entrance into the
town. A little further on the road ran in a direct line,
forming a gentle ascent for nearly three quarters of a mile,
and when the whole line was occupied by the procession,
the spectacle presented a magnificent and imposing view.
The perspective was truly beautiful, the banners and other
insignia glittering beneath the sun, which now and then
darted his fleeting, but propitious rays, on this national ga-
thering.
Sir Charles Morgan left Llanover, where he was staying,
at half-past ten o'clock, accompanied by all the other visi-
tors, in ten carriages, Sir Charles's carriage, drawn by four
black horses, decked with green and white ribbons and sil-
ver leeks, led the way, in which was the venerable President
the Comte H. de la Ville Marque, Lord and Lady Rodney,
and Lady Hall, Mr. 0. Morgan and Mons. Jaequelot, de Bois
Boursay ; Sir B. Hall's carriage followed,
n
drawn
adbythfoouser
horses with green and white cocades, in which,
which followed, were the under-mentioned persons :
His Excellency le Chevalier Bunsen, Mde. Bunsen, Sir
Benjamin Hall and Miss Hall, Lady A.lbinia Cumberland,
Lady Louisa Bromley, Lord and Lady Bateman and Hon.
Miss Hanbury, the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, Mrs.
Monk, Professor Lepsius, Rev. B. Pool, Miss Shirley, Miss
Bromley, Mr. and Mrs. Berrington, Miss Pool, Miss
Arnold, Mr. Martin, Mrs. Mountjoy Martin, Rev. J.
Jones (Tegid), Dr. Pritchard, Mr. H. Bowen, Mr. and
Mrs. Needham.
On the appearance of the worthy President the mass of
Cyntry sent up a shout of congratulation to Ivor of Ivors,
that made the welkin ring. Mr. Taliesin Williams and
Mr. Daniell then came forward ; the former spoke an ad-
dress in Welsh to Sir Charles, which the latter immediately
afterwards delivered in English ; to which the venerable
Baronet replied. Several rounds of applause followed the
speech of the worthy President.
The number of carriages was now increased to upwards
of sixty, and the procession extended a mile and a half. It
was exactly an hour and three quarrers from the time the
cortege left Llanover, till it arrived at the George Hotel,
in Abergavenny, a distance of only four miles, in conse-
quence of the delay occasioned by the concourse of persons
assembled on the road. The streets of the town were also
filled with visitors, as well as every window, and even the
roofs of the houses were literally covered with persons
anxious to obtain a view of the procession. Sir Charles
Morgan and the Count remained uncovered, during the
greater part of the time, acknowledging the greetings re-
ceived from all parties.
We now hastened to enter the room of meeting, which
was a large tennis court, skillfully fitted up by Mr. Jones,
builder, which afforded comfortable accommodation for
thirteen hundred persons. About half-past eleven o'clock,
the President and party walked up to the platform, and
took their seats ; they were greeted with the most lively
manifestations of congratulation from all parts of the as-
sembly. Every scat was filled—the platform was crowded,
and presented a picture of rank, fashion, and beauty very
rarely equalled in much larger assemblies. Indeed, the
galaxy of loveliness was perfectly dazzling.
Amongst many other highly-distinguished personages
in the company we noticed the following :—The Breton
Deputation, consisting of Mons. le Comte de la Ville
Marque, Mons. Jules de Francheville, Mons. de Jacque
lot, Mons du Marhallach, Mons. de Mauduit, during the
festival. Lord and Lady Rodney, Lord and Lady Bate-
man and Hon. Miss Hanbury, Lady Louisa Bromley.
Lady Albinia Cumberland, Sir B. Hall, Bart., M.P., and
Lady, Sir Samuel R. Meyriek, K.H., the Bishop of
anfl I\l4,uk, Mons.. Rio and Lady, Mr

ham, Mr. Octavius Morgan, Le Chevalier and Mde.
