One hua- dyed and seventy-three persons partook of this part of the cntertainment, the bour being midnight. Three tables yan parallel to each other the length of the room; at the head of the apartment was the principal table, at which “wore seated Mesers. Oliver ©.

The reason of this is the jouliarity of Paive’s religious opinions and his indepen- Teaco of what is called “the church.’”’ On this important wabject be ‘Man bas a right to instivate his own popomery? ‘end to be bis own pricst,’’ and to that end Jabored threnghout his life, without looking for any veward other than the gratitude of m: d and the geod opinion of the wise. To Thomas Paine this country Owes a debt of gratitude; to him, in the highost degree, Oo weowe the first steps in our colonial indepen*ence. But though our government is baptized by the name of republic, it has yet to be baptized with ite spirit. In North Caroling men sre net permitted to sit in ‘the jury box if they be beterodox, and the same is true ‘with regard to Massachusetts. But I cherish the bope ‘that a good time is coming, and that we shall soon glory tm the supremacy of the age of reason, not merely in this country, but over the ent world, The speaker then ded to review Pains orks, stating that the pub- Ecatien of the Age of Beason opened upon nim the whole of ecciesinatical hounds—all the little dogs, Tray, anch and L pein vay barking at bim to no purpose, ‘The President concluded by reading the Firrt Tosst.—Themas Paine—The Acserter of the Rights of e Crestor of American Independence, and its Saviour sm the “Times that Tried Men’s Seuis. ‘Music—"‘The Marsellaise.”” ‘The Praerment then read the second toast, calling upon Mrs. Ernestine |.

But it may be asked ‘what is it that brings us annually together on this day? ‘The 39h of January in itself has no higher merit than in the yesr, nor can it be the mere fact man being first saw the light of life, ‘fer every day in the year ushers teas of thousands into exience. It is not, then, the birth, but the life of an in- 4 ‘bat makes it a pleasing duty to others to celebrate the event.

Mr. J.C Sur, of Chi being calied upon to reply, said—I feel Rokoed by thin rink because Sunday involves the bistory uses of one-seventh part of our thme. It was right that the God of Day should have one day devoted to him. But we are told i a cer ain self-called old book that the Maker of the Universe, after working very bard dorian ax days, rest. ed bimself on the seventh, and was refreshed; and there- fore we are to be solemn faced on that day. Why do we do this? It is the interest of the priesthood to make us conform to the observance—but do we get other than su- Perstition from the clergy’—do we learning in the pit? No At this point a gentleman who had in. a)ged rather too freely before and curing supper created a disturbance. When quiet was something lixe restored the spesker raid, in conclusion, that the church was an association for the benetit of the priest, in which every old woman who had knitted him s pair of socks or hem- | med him a pocket handkerchief held stock.

At the conclusion of Mr, Smith's remarks the comoany returned to the ballroom and dancing was forthwith re- sumed, to the pleasant instrumentation of Dodworth’s The Festival of the Barns Club of the City of New York. On Monday evening, Jan. 26, the members of the club and their frienas, to the number of nearly one hundred, assembled at Patten & Lynde’s Pacific Hotel, in Green- wich street, for the purpose of celebrating the birthday of Robert Burns, Socotland’s favorite bard. The post was born on the 26th of January, but that being Sunday, the celebration was necessarily deferred to the 36th. At about balf- past seven o'clock the company entered the spa- clous dining room, preceded by Mr. P. Kennedy with the Scottish bagpipes, who played a stirring pational march. The president, Mr. J. Cunningham, occupied the chair, and was supported by Messrs. J. Smith and J. Laing, ag first and second Vice Presidents. | The company being seated, the Chairman called upon Mr, Robert Burnet for Burns’ pithy address tothe hagcis, which that gentleman recited in a spirited manner, pre- facing it with few interesting remarks relative to the associations connected with the dish. The dinner was worthy the occasion. The tables were beautifully orna- mented, and every luxury of the season end of every clime was furnished in overilowing abandance. The haggis was of course ore of the features of the feast, ‘and was of more than ordinary excellence, if we might jucge by the repeated calls for it room was tastefully decorated with the flags of Great Britain, France and America. A transpa- rency of Burne was placed at the head of the table, im the rear of the Chairman. Ricb silk tartans of the various clans were also gracefully arranged, with eftect.

J would ask what ‘Scot is there among us who can think over the history of his country—think of her Wallace, ber Bruce, ber Doug las, and other patriote—th'nk of those true hearts who in times past have made their homes among tac gicue and caverns of ber highianis—th'nk of those whose bloed, spilt in liberty’s cause, bas given frosh boauty aad strength towe Piooming beatber—who among us, I say, can think of these things without turning with grateful memory to that noble spirit whose name is the living synonym of freedom? @ adopted sous of America have most cause to reverence that name, for not only has its influence given us the advantages of our adop:ed coun try, but even in our fatherland its peacetal power lingers, dear as tbe memories of our childhood.

James Whelpley vs. James Holme.—This was an ac: tion brought by Mr. Whelpley, who is well known as an experienced driver and trainer on the Union course, to recovers balance due for services rendered in training B horse for \icfondant. The charges were proved to be correct, but the defendant averred, by way of offect, ‘that the horse was ariven on one occasino on the road instead of on the track, anc! that he was at that time 1 properly driver, and became lame, and he claimed mages for the tpjury done tothe horse. As ‘s usual i these cascsa large amount of testimony was given. It was prove: that afier the horse roturned trom the drive ho went lame; ard from this fact, together with the fact that there were marks of of the whip upon the borse, and beged |, i¢ was inferred that he had een was lame, though notin the same leg, and appesred to be unsoun:| when delivered tnto the piaintill’s charga; and the witness who rode with tho plaintiff on the ooca- sion referred to testified that the horse was driven mode rately av: carefully, and that there was no negligence on the pert of Mr. Wheipley. It was not charged that bis treatment of the horse op any oiher occasion was in due care and skill. It was shown on the part of the defendant that on the drive referred to the borse wae Griven for about three quarters of a atthe top of his epeed; but it also appeared that he was pul into the plaintid’s care to be trained so as to bring out the greatent amount of speed that could be obtained, to bring him, in the lang Of tho turf, inside of three minates, and 't was not very easy to «ce bow this could be lone without driving him fast. It was also objected that the piaintiff ought not to have driven anywhere else except upon the track; but tt was clearly proved by the testimony of Hiram Woodruff and other trainers that it ‘was the ‘constant practico for trainers to take horses put under their care from the track and occasionally put them upon the road. as a horse constantly uy track gets weary of it, and wants chango; besides, a wanied to havo the horse trained for use upon the road.
