About three hundred gentlemen sat down TO DIM
ner. Amongst them almost all most dis
tnguished British fellow-citizens, and many of our
own most well.known and influential citizens.
The decorations of the room were chaste and very
appropriate. The room itself is, however, so mag
ncent, and its walls and ceiling so elegantly adorn
| ed by allegorical designs in the first style of
| art, that additional decoration was almost
| as unnecessary work as to attempt to
| gid refined gold" But the additional adorn-
ment did not offend by profuslon-t was chase and
simple, in keeping with the general appearance of
the room, and therefore effective Above the chair
was a splendid transparency of the Royal arms OF
| England, the Union Jack and the stars and stripes
waving in harmonyby It's sides. At the foot of the
table was another transparency of the arms of the
Prince Of Wales on the right side was St. George
| and the Dragon, and the motto of the Society,"
| "Let Mercy be our boast,
And Shame our only fear ~
At the left side the of the Queen of Great Bril-
| tain. Thesrecesses between the windows we're oc-
cupied by tablets bearing the following names of
distinguished heroes, statesmen land writers OF Great
| Britan:-
| wErLrNGror, NELSON,
| BysoS, scorr,
| FIELDiSe, SMolLErr,
CASrrNG CHATHAM,
HOWE, PrcToS.
The cloth having been removed, an appropriate
air was given by the excellent band in attendance
| Non nobis domino then given by company
OF professional singers, who joined by the
ran BRoyGn, whose voice was heard above the
whole in pleasing harmony.
| The CHAIRMAN then rose, and gave the first regu-
| lar toast -
