The FIRENEN's SupPER.-We noticed brief:
ly in yesterdays paper that the members Of
the Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company gave
their First Assistant Foreman compliment
tary supper on Thursday evening, on the
event of his leaving for Philadelphia for long
absence. Mr.. William Orvine Bokse had
long been prominent and enthusiastic men,
Der of the company, and right jolly was the
gathering which met in the Dining Hall of the
Apollo The principal officers of all the COM
panies were present, together with some other
invited guests. Foreman Banker presided
Any one that supposes that fremen are not
A. No. fellows, and withal gentlemen, labors
under perfect faulty. We wish we could
give all the fine speeches, the witty sentiments,
the punning toasts, and half describe the good
feeling, the hearty humor, the cordial fellow
ship that prevailed. But any one who has
never "jined an ingine comp'ny" must live
in utter ignorance of the way they enjoy
themselves when some Of the "choice spirits"
get together.
We give below some of the sentiments re.
sponded to. We say some, for it is well
known that champagne, which flowed freely,
is great provoker Of toast and speech, and
as the festive board was surrounded until the
wee small hours, bare glance must suffice.
