TheFiremcn.s Banquet.

This afErir which came off at the
american House on Friday evening
last, was a very brilliant and spirited
N We have seldom had the pleasure
of being present on an occasion of this
kind, where so much good feeling char
actcrized the whole proceedings. About
8 o'clock some thirty or forty members
of the Torrent Fire Company'-the
Eaton Cornct Band" Editors of the
papers, and a few other distinguished
"dcad heads" seated themselves at a
table, and partook of a very elegant and
splendid supper, prepared by Mr.. w.
NJ. JEFFERsoN, the Host of the "Amer-
lean House, and which gave proof That
he is indeed a prince among landlords.
After it had been made known that the
company had done ample justice to the
"good things" SO abundantly prepared,
the Toasts were then read by Mr.. W.
NJ. CAMPBELL, Secretary of the Fire
Company, some of which created copsid-
cradle mcrrimcnt. Speeches we're then
made by Messrs. Hendricks, Zoos, and
Morris, which were amusing and enter
tanning, and contained some good hints
to those propcrty-holders in Eaton, who
in no manner aid or encourage the Fire
Company, a matter to which we may re-
fer more at length when u space will
permit. This occasion was enlivened
during the evening by the "Cornet
Band,'' which always d~iscourses such
cxoalloDt music.
