II Canal street, of Administrator Lewis, New
"a Years day. All the employees in the De-
II partment of Improvements several weeks
ago arranged to surprise their friend by
presenting him with a New Year gift, some
u thing that would please him as long as he
h lived. Josh Iipman, Of Liilienthal's, was
consulted, and he declared that he could

I here Say that we take great pride in calling
ourselves your friends desire to present
you New Year gift. We deem this fit oc-
casion to give you tangible proof OF the

fore beg your acceptance of this, our offer
lug, token alike of our high este en- for you
as d gentleman and officer, and of our apre
citation of your past services to your people
and your party.
This set is of silver and the different
stages of its manufacture bear striking
mblance to your own career. Like the
silver came from the mine, you sprung up
from people who were considered as far
below the average of human beings as the
silver in the mine was below the. surface of
The earths As the silver was purified, MANI
tactured and polished by the silversmith,
so were sou elevated and in manner
made by the circumstances attending
You step by step, as you rose from q
humble citizen to one of the highest mus
nicipal offices within the gift OF the peo-
pie, like the silver set, each stage through
which you have passed has added a new
.astre and brilliancy TO your already
bright character, and we trust that tire two
may ever remain bright and glorious as
they now ares
liz conclusion, we wish ysgs happy New
j ears g. long lite, uninterrupted prosperity
and much happiness
