Clergy of their Denomination, who were
collected in this city, To attend the IN
teres,ing ANN, ,ersaries OF !hls week, from
this and many of the neighboring States
The collation. was given III the EXTENSIVE
Hall over the Depot Of The Worcester
Rail Road. The whole area Of that vas;
Hall was covered with the tables, which
we're stocked with the boun,es Of Provi-

fruits and flowers, and the Hall was les

a A ,l,,,r toe eto nd Il.
At 3 o'clock, 8lj ladies and gentle
men were seated at The bounteous tables.
Apart from the highly interesting ocra-
sion, it was truly delightful sight, and
the riches, ieas, of the whole, 10 gaze
upon the lively and lovely faces that sur
rounded that festive board.
The Hon. Richard Sullivan presided
nt the table. The blessing was invoked
by Rev. Mr.. Gannelt-whereupon the
happy company proceeded to the enjoy
ment of the good things which were
spread before them, and ample justice
was done to that part OF the celebration
After "the outer man was fed, " thanks
were returned by the Rev. MIR. Hunting
ton, and the intellectual department oi
the banque, was then introduced. Mr.
Thayer, The Chairman Of the Committee
of Arrangements, announced that no.
previous arrangements had been made in
relation to speakers for this occasion, ~
It was desirable that every one should be,
left at liberty to express such thoughts as
might occur To h,m, appropriate TO tht
occasion.
The Hon. Richard Sullivan, chairman
o( the meeting, then rose, and addressed
the assembly in very feeling and appro'
priate terms, though in rather IA feeble
voice, upon the highly interesting occa
sion upon which the company was as
sembled, and upon the duties which de-
vovcd upon those who were present, 4"
promote. as far as possible, the great
purposes and objects Of our Relig'on.-
lie stated thai there were many present,
Of the Rev. Clergy and others, from re-
mote parts of our State, who would
doubtless participate in the further duties
of the occasion. The chairman then an.
nounced an original song, written for the
occ sion by the Rev. John Pierpont,
which was sung, with delightful effect,
bv the whole company, standing, to the
tune of Aud Lang Syne.
The Rev. DIR. Prirce then rose and
addressed the company. ile said it was
customary, at festive meetings, To sing II
song, tell story, or make a spcech-bu'
rs he had arrived at that time OF llie when
n man might be allowed to tell story OF
olden time, he would proceed to tell one
and he did-and very appropriate
! and laughable one it was.
| The Rev. Mr. Ganneu next rose-nnd
spoke ex,emporaneously, but with fer
] vent and extremely eloquent spirit.
