satisfied, Mayor Grier, being called up
on, responded to a toast, and gave the
health of the Mayor OF New Brunswick.
John Noe, Esq, was called upon, and
that gentleman made some very inter
esting remarks, giving quite q history
of the Elizabeth police department.
His remarks were applauded. as they
deserved
| Councilman Cowell answered deafen-
ing calls, and made timely speech,
receiving cheers at its conclusion.
Judge Tenney made just such a
speech as we expected to hear from
him. He spoke in the highest terms
of Chief Keron and the police force,
which ranked second to none in the
State. The judge took no credit to
himself, although we think he is justly
entitled to very great thanks for his
untiring interest in behalf of the force.
His remarks were loudly applauded.
Hon. John r. Crane spoke briefly
paying high tribute to the worthy
chief and his policemen.
J. Madison Drake briefly responded
to toast which complimented the
DAILY MONITOR.
Hon. John Fl. Whelan, made a
most eloquent speech, and came in for
a large share of applause. His remarks
were we'll timed, and deserve more of a
notice than we are able at this time to
give them.
Mr.. John G. Rose, quite favorite,
spoke at some length. and was ap-
plauded.
Capt. Michael Behan, of the Newark
police force, also made neat speech,
plimenting Chief Keron and his
excellent officers
Capt. Samuel Keys, (Burnside's @,
NJ, at Knoxville) at times kept the
company IN roar of laughter "Sam"
has q very happy faculty of making
speech, and yesterday he reminded us
of ''halcyon days
Councilman J. l.. d. Lyon didn't
make speech-he thought we'd had
enough speeches; so he obliged press
ing invitations, and sang a song. and
he never sang better. s...
Other gentlemen made addresses,
sung songs, ETC., but our reporter be
ing hungy-he don't often have an
opportunity to get such "good things"
-comforted himself and his sorrows
over a couple of very nicely roasted
chickens, two or three pieces of roast
beef, dish or two of potatoes. besides
few other dishes, which he is unable
at this writing to remember. and con-
sequently he cannot be expected, under
such provoking circumstances, to write
of all that said or was said--not at all.
One very pleasing circumstance we
must not omit. Chief Keron, on ask
ing for the bill, was politely informed
by the landlord, that everything had
been settled for, and that worthy officer
came within one of making up his
mind to remain in New Brunswick
the people were so good. 1t subse-
quently leaked out, that Chief Guise
had assumed the responsibility, and,
with some friends, had liquidated the
entire expense, incurred by our guard
during their stay in New Brunswick.
If Chief Guise will only bring his po-
lice to Elizabeth, we promise that
they will meet with just such q recepI
ton as they deserve.
The people of New Brunswick yes
terday We'd with each other in their
attentions, and we never witnessed
greater hospitality. Ii associations
from this city visit them little oftener,
we shall have hopes of consolidation
sooner or later. The fact is, we are
now almost well enough acquainted to
be one and indivisible.
In conclusion, our policemen behav-
ed splendidly, marched splendidly, and
we long to accompany them on their
second annual excursion. ta}
