PRESENTATION OF COLORs--DEPARgCRE OF THE
BARNEY RIFLES. f
A presentation of colors 10 the Fifty. fourth Rsgi
ment N. Y. s. v. barney RiHes took place yestsr-
day afternoon at their encampment, Hudsoa City,
NJ j. The colcrs, consisting OF splendid standard,
two guidons, and the Stars and Stripes, were the
gift OF the Collector Of the PORT in honor Of whom
the regiment is named.
I The reeinental flag, richly embroidered and hay
ing the State and the name Of the regiment was
presented by William Allen Butler, in a neat and
appropriate speech.
After some predatory remarks, Mr. Butler oou-
graduated Col Kozlay on the success Of his efforts
Notwithstanding many discouragements, in raising
aud organizing this noble regiment. He oongratu-
lued him also on the distinguished mark of conf
denee exhibited toward him by the Government in
ntrusting him with the selection Of his officers; aud,
above ALL be cOntratulsted him that he had as last
received his marching ORDERS and woald so soon be
following to the field the coors now TO be presented.
He referred to the German composition OF the regi-
ment. The Germans have to day fly tboassnd
men under arms for the defense Of the Union, tha
Constitution, and the Laws. This is D large num-
Der, but not dtsproportioned TO the interest which
tho 'ermens have at stake 10 our free institutions.
lie had made TIE statement on another occasion, and
it bad been received with surprise that the City OF
New-York contained larger German popriaton
than Dresden, or Cologne, or imperial Frankfort
The NUMBER Of Germans in the field was, therefore,
not excessive, considering the vast German popa-
latiop of our country. But when be con-
bsd thus calamity enlisted had come 10 us 10 quest
of safe aud quiet homes or that we hsd assured
them that the soil Of America, on which the blood Oh
I GeU.ans aud Poles had mingled with that OF our
own fathers in the struggle for independence, was
consecrated By that blood not only TO perpetual free
dom but also to perpetual peace, and that they bad
come among Us on this pledge, ne regarded the De-
yotiou which they displayed Ii this hour OF our ipi-

as specneas Of artistic skill were of little value;
but as they had passed from his hands and
had been accepted the insignia Of the regiment,
