DR.. Zacheus Bass, one of the Vice Presi-
dents Of the evening, being called to the Chair,
alluded to the unfortunate accident of the af-
ternoon, and the unbecoming spirit manifest
ed by our opponents with reference to that &C.

lowing:

and peregrinations through different States, it
gained size and strength from coalition and in
EQUITY, came to its full time in Vermont, and
was strangled at its birth by the Green Noun
tain Boys.
Mr.. Deming amused the company with one
of his characteristic songs-which contained
some very good hits.
A guest offered the following sentiment:
The Medical Profession:
Ye hcalcrs of men, for a moment decline
Your feats in the rhubarb and ipecac line /;
While you shut up your turnpikes, your neigh
bors can go
The old roundabout way to the regions below"
DR.. C. c. p Clarke, being called upon, re-
piled to the sentiment, in suitable manner,
eliciting applause. He concluded with
GEN. TAYLOR He minded his own bust
ness, until the people called him to attend to
theirs.

able even 10 allude. 1t is taskiug ones Mono
ry quite too much to require it to retain all that
was good, or even best, in the sayings and do
ings of an evening characterized by such uni
versal good-feeling, and so litel ally,
"a feast of reason ard q flow of soul"
The whole festiyi;y was conducted on strict
Temperance principles, and the company re-
tired at seasonable hour,-satisied with so
pleasant an interview, and full of hope, in view
of the political revolution they had met to Gel
citrate.
