THE PREsENTATIoN.--0 last Friday af-
ternoon the Eagle Fire Company, of New
Hope was the recipient of a present whereof
they are justly proud. Mrs. Reading Gaddis,
one of tho most generous ladies of the town,
has made it her special business, within the
past few months, to secure the necessary
wherewithal to make our well-deserving fire.
men handsome present. Forty-scven dol
lars were solicited, and invested in the pur-
chase of a fine silk flag, 4X6 feet,--a beauty
with gold fringe, gilt stars, and handsome
eagle" surmounting the staff AS the above
named afternoon was appointed for its pre-
sentation, the attendance on the occasion was
quite large. A speakers platform was erect
ed at the Eagle House, upon which tho rep
rescptatives Of the donor-Mrs G.--and that
of the favored Co.--the Eagle--did ample jus
tice to the claims of the occasion. Rev. 3.
ii. Sanderiu made an excellent presentation
Speech in the course Of which he paid glow
ing tribute to our country flag and our coun-
try's fremen. Chief Engineer c. II. W. Van
solver, of the Lambertyille Fire Department,
respondcd--in behalf OF the Company--in a
fitting and hearty manner. After this I'M
pressive and interesting exercise, the Gem.
pany, together with about two hundred
friends, repaired to bountiful Yepast, spread
in the unfinished portion of the NJ F. Church
ediice. Here the good-feeling was maintained
even after the sandwiches steaming- coffee,
&C., had been squarely dealt with. The Rev.
Mr.. Sanderlin was presented with a fine cake
through a speech by Chief Vansciver and
in turn Chief Vansciver was subjected to the
same treatment-through speech by Rev. Mr..
Sanderin. The cake question appeared to be
delightful theme " for them to dwell upon
and gave rise to much pleasantly. The cxer-
cises were shortly afterward brought to a close.
1t is needless 10 say that the flag will ever
be considered embematic of something far
above its intrinsic value--it will be cherished
as an emblem of honor and appreciation--we
add, truly merited.
