After Mr.. osbern's address, dinner was
announced, and the pioneers forming in
line marched to the tables. How can We
do even partial justice to the bounteou:
repast, on paper. We testified our distin-
guished admiration by attacking the
victuals 'shorse, foot and dragons We
suppose 300 to 1000 persons dined, and ye
there was plenty left. A blessing was in.
ivolled by Rev. DR.. Trimble, and the pion
leers evidenced that, though their head
might be silvefed and their frames bend
ing meath the weight Of years, their appe
titles were still as vigorous as in youth.
After dinner the band played several pat
riotic airs and the meessias was again callec
to order, to hear an address from Hon. P. P.Val
Trump, OF Lancaster, but formerly resi-
dent of this county. This was the speecl
of the day, and we shall publish it in full
tomorrow morning. 7s'oa gsel ieo7zE
