AMIN BE4 DANIEL WEBSTER.
The citizens of Boston have manifested their
characteristic hospitality and public spirit in the
elegant entertainment which they gave on Mon
day to Amin Bey, the Turkish Envoy to the uni
ted States. We learn from the Courier thai
Thomas b. Curtis presided, and Benjamin Seayer
was Vice President. On the right of the Presi-
dent sat Amin Bey, with his interpreter, J. P.
Brown, and Mr.. Gales, of the National IneIf-
gencer on the left Secretary Webster, Senator
Winthrop, and Commodore Downs. On Mr..
Sewers right were seated Edward Everett, Will
liam Appleton, and Mr.. Price, and on his left,
Samuel a. Elliot, William Sturges, Fetch r
Webster and Rev, Robert S. Chew, of Wash
ington.
The address of welcome, made BY Mr.. Curtis
to Amin Bey, concluded in the following terms
You have already been received with distinc-
ton by the President of these United States tile
constituted authorities of the National Govern
ment have made you the Nations guest YOU
have been introduc&|upon the floors of our Na-
tIonal Congress; the authorities of our city have
made you welcome, and now, sir, the gentlemen
present unite in offering you their individual hos
pitality. Gentlemen, propose to YOU
Long life, health and happiness to the Sultan.
Tie reply of Amin Bey was as follows:

good will, to render the duration OF these kind feelings
permanent; and not"tn standing the immense distance
which separates America from Turkey-Washngi
from ConstantlnOpIe-h there happily exists relations be-
tween the two countries OF commercial nature wEril
tend TO draw them nearer every day The peope Of
these two countes may now readily visit each Other
with increased facilities by means OF steau which be

"Ihe american Element" and thus may cultivate with
each other, new and4more intimate relations Myown
government has strongly heart the extension of these
relations OF commerce with the United States. 1t
sees in them the only true basis OF amjy between the
two nations for without them, and those OF mutual
usefulness generally there would not exist between dit
terent nations and peoples other feelings than those of
seshness and mutual jealousy. Commerce renders all
governments respected by the strength which it gives
them, ard adds happiness and comfort to the natives
