After the fifth course of truly excellent dinner,
and the reading of several regular tOasts the presi-
dent Of the day, SO thoroughly prepared as to have
nothing to think of but his manner, dragged from
the vastly Deep Of his fancy, in a most theatri'
cal emphasis truths. which, if believed, would es-
tablish Boz the very brightest star in the con-
stellation Of genius. The distinguished guest re-
piled in dignifed and pertinent course Of remarks,
among which he dweit at some length upon the
subject of international copyright; abiding most
beautifully and feelingly to the works Of Sir Wal.
ter Scp, connection with the abuse OF this right
IN the United States. Gov. Ellsworth was then
called upon-he arose, and though putting on ra
Their too many" wise saws" for a Governor Of Con-
necticut, spoke very properly of the erroneous
| impressions which have been made in England
concerning Us, by such writers as Hall, Trolloppe-
eiM omns genus-he could speak particularly Of
New England; they were a reading community,
and cons, quently Intelligent they were proud Of
their institutions, and courted investigation and
scrutiny into all their operations; he was glad to
welcome among them a man Of genius and phlan
thropy like their distinguished guest, for he had
no doubt they would be set forth IN their true
light
Here Boz nodded his head, and thought, NO
doubt, Of his next book, to be entitled his Tour
in the United States'']
The Honorable Mr.. Niles was next called
upon. He said he had not read much light lit
| erature, bat what little he had read, was con-
fined to the writings Of his distinguished trans
atlantic, he had almost said his Yankee, friend,
| Mr.. Dickens. He entirely subscribed to the high
estimation in which his writings were held by the
president OF that meetings he Thought them g ILL
gen," specimens of light literature. Mr.. Niles,
after pressing dissertation Of three quarters of
hour, upon the religion, morals, and politics Of the
last three centuries during which time he had pro-
duced most moring effect upon his audience, sat
down mid deafcnng but ambiguous shout Of ap.
! plause. As soon Mr.. n. had taken his seat, all
eyes were turned to the president, for every one
was pregnant with some high strung thought, and
| had become anxious to be delivered. The presi.
dent continued to call after another, unti Boz
actually groaned under the besmearing Of soft SOAP
and execrable staff with which he was bedaubed
The only relief to the monolony of the scene, wa,
some good music from DR.. Marcy.
| Boz-Boz-Boz is the all absorbing subject here
to-day. Many were going to your city to be pre-
sent at the ball there, but your announcement tia
fifteen and twenty dollars were offered for tickets
was sufficient to alay the fever, SO they will con
tent themselves with ferreting out some new in
fractions Of the law Of deuteronomy and Exodus.
