man. In this order the procession rnarch,d through
the principal streets Of the vilIage,--whioi were
decorated with numerous banners in honor of the
occasion to the Asyl um, where satisfactory trial
Of. all the engines was made. The order Of march
was then resumed and the procession returned to
Main Street. The several companies were stationed
between the American House and the Town Hall,
and various amcable trials Of the power and ca
paeity Of the different engines took place, all of
which VIC believe resulted satisfactorily to the War
dens and spectators. As no attempts were made
70 test the relative position of the two leading COM
panes, Nos and 4, we are not furnished with
any accurate data by which to compare their re-
spective merits. All the companies performed their
several duties with slacrity and success, and with
an absence Of all unworthy rivalry and jealousy
that was highly commendable. Indeed the hearty
cheering with which the different companies met
and separated betokened the kindest feelings on
the part of all. We cannot but believe that this
promising commencement is but an augury Of the
future.
The Company from West Brattleboro and the
Band were the guests Of No. 9, at the supper,
which was provided BY "mne host Of the Cen
trai House. under the direction Of the Company's
steward Mr. Ia furst. The protraeted cheering
at the close of the repast furnished sufficient evil
dence that every thing passed on agrceably.
