sponded in brief and very pertinent speech.
He closed by giving as toast,
The Commerce of our Country New England
furnishes wings for lis enterprise CLAIMS to be al
home, ut all times, upol the deep"
The closing regular toast was as follows:
10. Ne,e England htrons:-Like Roman mat
rons, they glory in no jewels but their children"
Mr.. GnINNELL, the President of the Soci-
ETY., then said that it might, not unreasona.
bly,, be expected that he should make at least
few remarks on this occasion. He spoke
in humorous strain of the mnging of the
descendants of st. Jonathan and ST Nicholas,
and extended 10 the Society his heartest
congratulations on seeing them assembled
again on such an occasion. He trusted the
day would forever be observed by those who
gloried in being descendants of the Pilgrim
fathers, and exhorted them to remember that
ii was only by adhering strictly to the NOR
al character impressed upon them by their
mothers, that they could preserve the pecu-
liar glory of their institutions. He gave as
a toast
The Nec York Co'onists :-Exemplars of the
unos eniatous but sterling virtues honesty and hos
pilary."
