The Cnnandnigua az Belfast, Ire
land.

In the Belfast, Ireland, Ne.es Letter Of March
the civilities extended to the officers Of the U.
S. war frigate Canandaigua, by the Harbor
Com miss toner's and digni,srss of Belfast, on
the occasion of visit of the Capandaigua to that
port The whole narrative ID 80 interesting
that we regret being only able to give that
small portion Of it which relates more particu-
larly to Lieut.. Commander George Dewey, son
Of DR.. J. Y. Dewey, of this village, and which
nas a deep interest to the many and warm
friends of Lieut.. Dewey residing in this vicini-
ty. Among other things, sump,uous dinner
was prepared, toats proposed and drank,
speeches made, songs sung, &c. From the ac-
count of theee festivities We clip the following ::
The CHAIRMAN .aid the next toast be had to
propose would be received with satisfaction
by thsrn all. He had to propose The health
of Lieutenant Commander Dewey and the Of
dc-rs of tn. Canandagus." (Applau.e.) They
we're exceedingly sorry that they had not Cap
tain Slembel with them that evening. Any one
who had met him on the previous day would
regret his absence that evening. He was, how
ever, worthiy represented by his executive Of
ficer, whose acquaintance he he Chairmsn)
had made that day. Without further comment
he begged to give them the toast.
The toast was drank with applause.
G~.x-" OF Noi.,." ..I D. Nossb."
Lieut. Commander Dewey responded. He
did so inthe absence of Cap,ain Stembsl, and
thanked them for the kird manner in which
they had drank the health Of the American Of
6cers He need not tell hem how grateful the
officers felt for the kindness shown them-un-
expected and unlocked for-bnt none the less
welcome. tApplause.) Their friends at home
would know of il, and would appreciate it. 1t
was very suggestive to him that tina. was the
anniversary of the marriage of the Prince OF
Wales. He begged to propose % The Harbor
Commissioners. (Applau.e)
The Chairman, IN responding, said he al
ways felt that it was easier to give a toast than
to return thanks for one ; but on that occasion
i, would not be very difficult. For the kind
manner in which the health of that corporation
had been proposed. he would merely say that
it afforded them extreme pleasure to see the
Americans among them, not only on account OF
the officers themselves, but because they we're
the representatives OF the great American ma
ton. (Applause.) They lived in a time when
tnsy depended very much on the navy for sup
porting the interests of commerce; and when
they found the representatives of a great nation
amongst them it gave them unbounded salts
faction. His (the chairman's) father had lived
the best part Of his life in America. He him.
self held house in New York, where one of
his sons was living, and therefore he has an
interest in the country. That was the first
time tina, any American vessel had, under such
circumstances. arrived in Belfast, and he hoped
it would not be he last.
Many other good things were spoken, and
done, and The evening WAS spent in a most
agreeable and harmonious manner.

Sc As a member of the lower house of Con-

great credit for himself and his State. HIS
labors on the tax bill, and the mastery speech
with which he introduced the measure to the

tion of his abilities this session. while his f.

about the position he will take on the great

reason TO be proud of such q ref resentative.

the lower house, and It will be difficult to fill
his place there but that certainly Is not suf-
fcIent reason for not promoting him to place
of greater honor and usefulness, and there
will be general surprise and regret if the
Legislature should pass him by in the election
of Senators.
