These social friends alone invite
To grace my Festival to-night.
Then fill for them the goblet up,
For while with them I drink the cup,

I feel no want, my cares are gone,
I live a thousand years in one.

Mr. Sergeant MURPHY, in acknowledging ry.
toast, said that, at that late hour of the Were

cold, he must content himself with a very few wow
in reply to the toast. He had left his professioss,
avocations, and travelled a distance of 200 est,

and his gratitude to the English people for the )
ness shown to his countrymen.—(Loud e„hear;,,,„

suspicious circumstances which attended the traum.....a.

tained that opinion, and should ever express it;

there was another opinion he also felt boll hot

raised itself by the talent displayed on the late nee
sion to the highest pinnacle of fame and honour.
