Curtls, the Rev. Dr. Bellows, the Hon. John Bigelow, and others. The Century Is 8 soctal cluly, composed of the best repre. sentatives of the refincments of culture and art. of aurcity. ' Mr, Bavard Taylor §s the fourth ono of tho members of the Claub appointed to foreign _misslons within the Jast fow yeara,—~Bigelow, Jay, ana Bancroft being the others,—saying nothior about another member, William M. Evarts, the maker of Ambassadors. It s somo evidence of the kind of men who compose the member- ship of the Club that, at the election of 1870, a candidate for the Presidency of the United States, candidato for the Governorshlp sml Licutenant-Governorahip of New Yurk, aud for the Mayoraity of this city, wero taken from its Lody. It would almost scem as if, when a first. class ticket fatohe formed, the politicians selest thelr candudates from among the class who are members of the Century. Aud yet, at the Club, partiean politics are entirely fgunored, and its nilicers, a8 a matter of tuste, eschiew all pub- Hclty that partakes of the scnsational; conse- quently none of these specchies have been mado public by the Sadfetv. I had the mood fortune to be o jruest ot the banguct, through which means Tan'now enabled to furnish your read- era with the address of Mr. Bryaut, together with Mr. Taylor's response. I do this withont relerence to” the objects of tho banquet, or to violate the privacy of the Club, but for the purpose of showing bow well prescrved aro the inental powers of & man now fn his 84th year, whom Motley termed “the yenerabie und most beloved pout of our country.” Althougl it has Deen sald that such minds never grow old, it is mote tian probabie that Mr. Hryant's perfeet health, activity, and fotellectual vigor are the result of the abstemnlous life he has led, and of tho natural sercnity of his mind. Ho sympa- thizes decply, as he did of old. in ali of the moral and public enterprises of the day, and s alinost daily called unon to preside at and a dress public mestings unon any and all sabjec having for their object the moral and soctal ad- vancement of the people. His graceful address, which 1 now give, slows no elensof age. It was dellvered with all tha enthusiasm, as may be inferred, of his college days, as the closing poiut would {ndicate, G.
