by special invitation and in the course OF e evening
marched up the hall in full array TO the marquee. vi

Honor the Mayor was paraded up the Hall IN siihr

of his situation, but for his personal qualiues.
/ have 10 express my Acknowledgements 70 ine
Militia Committee for their attentions 10 mt; and only
regret that could stay long enough to avail my
self of them 10 the full extent they were proHered
more particularly they were offered with so much
politeness and cordially; but business IS business
and the service of the public is paramount 10 every
thing else and must supersede all personal consldera
tons, however attractive and interesting the induce

The Montgomery Guards who came fro n Boston
to be present this gala, were of the corps who were
so mobbed and insulted last summer by fanatica
rabble on the common in that city and they seemed
deeply gratied by the attention paid 10 them IN New
York. Here we know no distinction except that o.
moral worth accompanied by talent; nc sectional
jealouses, or religious preudces can be heard or fell
in this great community, where every man Is the son
Of his own works, and is estimated accordingly In
Boston, thore is narrow purltanical feeling sui ex'
tant which dispayed itself the occasion alluded TO-
10 the disgrace of that city, which was only redeemed
by the prompt and vigorous action OF the authorities
and the voice Of the liberal and educated portion o
the community. This jealousy and bigo,ry showed
itself in the destruction of the Charlesown convent
ia the interruption of the funeral rites of Catholics
and in the outrage to which we have just adverted
and we were happy the studious attention palc
by all 10 the objects of the latter ebulion OF popula
phrenzy Nothing of this kind can ever obtain in 50
enlightened and just community as that Of New
York, whose social and political maxim IS, as !
should be,
Tros ryriusve Mhi nullo discrmiue agetur.
OF the festivities of the evening after our departure
we cannot speak; we retired, humming to ourselves
To all and each fair good night,
And rosy dreams, and sumbers bright
