After five or six mortal and melancholy bours the town was reached. And such @ town and » le! Sourkrout is th jorninating feature of houses, orses, men, women and children. They all look alike, and all Kroutieh. Finally we reached the springs, after another desperate effort. And here, ine of Anding a comfortable haltiug place and accommodrtion, everything was topy ag Ta down, and confusion worse con foundet No houses yet completed, but building Do provision for visiters, no arrangements perfected, and no ryrtem promised, if appearances may be trusted. The fprings bave passed’ into the hands of a company who hope to fleece so much of the public as will come here in fummer, and the rest of it, by retailing the stenchy water in demijohne, distributed over the country. In a word, these thick headed Dutchmen think they can !mitate Saratoga and pocket as much money, with even loss pains or pretension, One are military out here— Gosier—remember, not Gosling—le the head of the con cern, and a Willard, not ene of the Wastington mon, is the tail, and between them they are ® nice pair.

J. McLuen Mcrrry then said—In accepting this mag- BF a testimonial, were I to say that this is the proudest moment of my life, should be giving uterance to that which is hardly true. The fact is, hour {s to me one of deep humiliation, at my own unworthiness of auch & im, If,ag 1am assured, this isa token of gratitude to me because I distributed the onage of the government {na manner that was satis! to you, then the gift should have more appropriately been given to the honora- Die gentleman who bes jast presented itto me. His un- tiring efforts to secure work for the mechanic and 1! laboring man during the severities of the last titles bim to your warmest gratitude. Nor peals unheeded by the late Sec: etary of the Navy. Tt was enough for him to know that a poor man’s child was weep- ing for bread—and through ice and snow, rain and slect, be wandered until its cries were hushed with plenty. Nor were these acts of generous exertion in behalf of the workingman limited to bis own district. No such narrow policy circumecribed his conduct, for there are hundreds now in all parts of this city and Brooklyn from whose homes the blight of idleness has been baniehed. In this reepect I was but an agent. But, men, that agency is destroyed. The official relations between us are forever extinguished, and while I shall not allude to the events and circumstances that have led to that extingish- ment of associations and ties, dearer far to my heart and memory than any of the obligations office the recollection {8 with me, aud I trast will ever be, that my manhood is of more infinite yalue to me than any place. Your presence here to night, and the occasion which has summoned us once more to excbange glances of ancient friendship before we part, prove to me that benesth your manly bosoms there beats a reg] to that sentiment. This is a testimontal of the workingman and the mechanic. By a strange combination of circumstances my lot has been cast among them from childhood. More than sixteen years ago I stood by the side of my mother’s new made grave, under the willows in the old St. Mark’s Leg oo tg eee ei oc too oes = me as we gat cracki faggots came from the of the Torne mountain. With a chiid’s confidence I asked her, ‘*Mother, #! hall 1 ber’? “Choosey my boy,” said she, “eome profession in life, the daily practice ef which will make you familiar with the wants and tbe necessities of the poor, and in that way you willever have before you the commands of our Divine Father.’ Fyom that bour that dear mother’s injunction bas been with me. Even amid the gay ani brilliant scenes ef Italy my companions were brawny sailors, and while they taught me to knot and to splice, I learned {rom them to appreciate the force and the sweetness of the vongs of poor Dibdin. In exchange for well-thumbed volumes of att and Basil Hall, I gave them the : Hawks of Hawks’ Hollow,’’ and the poems of Tandon, But now as I glance back through that vista of ears, | remember with deep affection one man, whose hest rank on the rolls of the ship was that of ‘Jack of the Dust.’’ But poor and despised as he was, he was a learned and educated man, and Ia wild un-utored led, Whose scholarahip was Mmived to whe | hed garnered in the dreary months jater amon, on an oaken bench in the wilds of dear old Rockland.

(Long continued applause.) Letters of apology were then read from Judge Russel! and several other iy all bearing favorable testi mopy to Mr. Murpby’s worthiness, Mr. Kriiy being again called upon, said—It {a proper I should add, befo-e this intcrestiag ceremony is ciosed, that ‘pn Mr. Marphy’s removal from the office he held as Con- structing peer under the government, there was no charge of derilection of duty—no charge of lack of pro- fessional capacity—no charge of political infidehty to the His offence was a 4 of his own private character against the groundiess accusations of one ‘who ought to have been his friend.

Phave opposed with earnestness the policy of the slavery propagandists, and have endeavored as far as laid in my power to defeat their pernicious measures, which were calculated, in my judgment, to substivate for the toleration of negro bondage in the States where it now exists, its untversal and absolute dominion, thus obstructing the suc cess of every industrial interest, aud bending the eovern ment itself to @ courge of measures which could not fail to cripple the prosperity and impsir the dignity of free labor.
