The dinner-of the New England Society was spread at Detmonico’s last night before about 300 guests, Among them were the President of the United States and Gen- eral Wiliam T. Sherman, Preparatory to the dinner President Grant held a levee in the front par- | jor on the second floor, and the mem- bers and the distinguished invited guests were presented to His Excellency by Commissioner Bailey, the President of the society. The introduction being over, the party repaired to the dining hall, where a sumptuous repast was spread—one in strange contrast, as many of the speakers observed, with the frugal | meals of the pilgrim fathers, THE GUESTS, Among the distinguished guests were President U. 8 | Grapt, General William T, Sherman, ex-Goveruor E.

The Doctor invoked a divine blessing on the country, her industries, her magistrates and her | mstitutions, and grace was over, Ip dne season the courses followed in regular. succession until the cigar and coffee epoch was at band, Here the Presi- dent rose, and, after a short address, announced the first regular toast of the evening, “The Day We Cele- brate.”’ Bearing their birthrights proudly ou their backs rd of new fortune here ver choice of duuntless spirits now the boglish bottoms bave walt o er Did ever tout upon the swelling tide. —King John, act 3, scene 1. The sentiment was gesponded to by Mr. Joseph H. Choate. ‘MR. CROATE’S RESPONST, Mir, Choate said he was not aware of how it came to pase that be was called upon to ansWer to the first and leading toast of the evening, unless the honor was offered him for the faithful manner in whieh, for | twenty-one years; he bad listened to the responses to the same sentiment which he was now called upon to enlarge. He awelt upon the careful manner in which, during those long years, he had patriotically contemplated New England dinners as prepared by Stetson and Delmonico, He declared that | no man’s education was complete until he had partaken of a fragal New England dinner thus prepared. Even the august President of the United States knew this fact, and, though he was famous in war, and the Chief Alagistrate of 40,000,000 of treemen, he might learn something of the former from the descendants of Miles NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1875.—TRIPLE SHEET., LE y ALMANAC FOR NEW YORK—THIS DAY. FIRE IN VESEY STREET. At about a quarter to twelve o'clock last nighta fire was discovered in Smith’s paper pattern manu- | factory in the upper part of the house No, 42 Vesey | street, the lower part being occupied by Rifflard & | Co., dealers in champagnes, cordials, &c, Owing | to the extremely inflammable mature of the | material the fire spread with tenrible rapidity, and im an incredibly short ‘space of | time the whole top of the building wag enveloped in flames, The fire engines were promptly op the ground ‘aud every possible effort was made to get the fire under control, but for a long time with little effect. | A copious stream of water was poured in | on the burning building through | windows and from the roof of a neighboring | house, but it had no more effect than so much spray. | The blaze came out im fearful volume through the | windows, giving the bars the appearance of 80 many gridirons; but eventually they came | down with @ crash on the sidewalk, to the no small danger of the firemen. The heat emitted by the burning building was intense, and | the neighborhood for several blocks around was luridly | iituminated by the dull red, smoky glare. The house, { No. 40 Vesey street, occupied by W. Hw Griffith | & Co, billiard table manufacturers, in short | time was attacked by the flames On the | top of this house is a wooden cornice, 80 dried up, that it caught fre in a ver y short time, as the wind was blowing the blaze from the nearest window of No, 42, and from this cornice the top floor of No. 40 soon took fire. It required all the exertions of the firemen to preveut it spreading to the lower part of the building; but eventually its fury began to’ abate some- what and soon after the fire was completely under | control | “At about half-past twelve o’clock the firemen had | two ladders raised against the front of the building No. Hfth floor and the other to the third floor, It was the intention that men should go up the former ladder to combat the flames, which were rolling out and lapping the cornice. Just then a large and heavy wire screen sign, inclosed in a heavy wooden frame, and uncomfortable threat against the safety of the tire- the immense mass of iron and wood came crashing mass came down with a tremendous crash, breakin; down the two ladders, knocking down a lamppost ant shivering the thick flagging of the sidewalk. It was immediately found that the cornice had made a furrow in the ground several inches deep. It was indeed fortunate that everybody was warned to keep a | good distance from the barning house before the sign was thrown down; for, other- | wise, as nobody thought that the | cornice would fall, several persons must have been | killee, As it was a pipeman who intrepidly held to tho | nozzle of bis hose was somewhat jarred by the contact of the mass with the ground near him. | hence the rapid progress of the fire. ‘The insurance people i that the cornices of the buildings were shamefully made. They also declare that such a fire could have occurred in no other two | buildings on the block and cause so small aloss, This | can scarcely be more than $35,000. A CATHOLIC CHYRCH BURNED. Standish and a litte of the peaceful arts from Winthrop and Bradford. He was grieved that the President should find in the assembly of which he was the honored guest so much opposition to his favorite views, as recently and elo- | quently expounded. This last remark created wild merriment, and President Grant looked up at Mr. Choate in an inquiring way, It was only a joke, however, as Mr. Choate by subtie after dinner | temen present were | tophietry proved that all the gen veritable imtlation:sts, whose barren plates bore testi- mony to the truth of thy assertion. Wishing to return to the serious consideration of the toast and the memories of Plymouth Rock, Mr. Choate said that in his historical reading he had found that alt | great nations had their rocks. The Romans ‘had their Tarpeian Rock, the English tar Rock, the Yankees their Plymouth Rock and Ireland (who always must have something) basher shamrock, At this stage of his remarks Mr, Choate suddeniy remembered that Hugh Miller’s study of rocks was said to have been the cause of his death. Lest his (Cheate's) study should have fatal consequences | among the members he would say no more, save one | tootbsome morsel, which he would present in the form | of an Interrogative toast, “Was there not now and then | a litue sham about the Rock of Plymouth!” THE PRESIDENT. The next toast announced was “The President of the | United states; wont to speak plainly and to the pur- | pose, like an honest man and a soldier.” MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Contrary to anticipation the President did not speak, and Mr. Burley said:—‘He answers im the golden lan- guage of silence, and is consistent with his record— ‘im,deeds, not words.’”” “THE STATE OF NEW TORK.” Mr. Bailey said it was expected that Governor Tilden would respond to this toast, but, the canals being | their — Gibral- | frozen, it was fair to suppose tbat be could not come down to town. “TAR CITY OF NEW YoRK.”?

The next regular toast was “Our Guests.’ Hon. Wilham T. Davis, President of the Pilgrim Society, of Viymouth, Mass., responded, and, after thanking the Chair for the compliment to the society which he rep- | resented, in the course of a most graceful speech in Jandation of the founders of American liberty, said:— Like some secluded mountain spring, which finds its way by devious courses from rock to rock, through gorge and glen, and over sandy plain, now with boust- | Jul leaps, and now through unseen channels, running its destined race, ever deepening and widening as it Funs, until at last, overcoming every »arrier, it sweepe | on +a majestic river into thes open sea; that love of liberty bubbling op in the compact of the Mayflower, through the hardened crusts of empires and dynasties, became a living | stream, pouring its invigorating flow mto the hearts of | generation after generation, until it* so permeated | the civil governments of the colonies that neither kings nor councils could check its career,- and it fiowed on with an irresistible tide into the great ocean of national freedom.

The fire was of incendiary origin, and | the circumstances lead to the belief that the affair wus connected with the prevailing feeling of animosity | against that creed. About midnight an attempt was made to set fire toa blacksmith shop im the immediate vicinity of the | | church, but the lames were discovered and extinguished | before much damage bad resulted, and a bottle that had contained kerosene, together with some pa- | per that had been saturated with the | oil, were carried away, Between twelve and one o'clock another alarm was sounded, and this time w:th cause, for soon the heavens were lit by flames trom the stable attached to the church, upper part of the stable was burned first Jittle doubt could be entertained thatthe hay had been set on fire, | The church adjoining was atwo and ahalf story frame structure, 40x80 feet in area. The ground floor was oceupied by the church proper and was neatly fitted up. The second story was occupied by Rev. 1. Schneider, tn charge, with his library, &c. On this floor | there was also a parish school, and a room lately fitted up for the Cutbolic Young Men’s Reading Room, This room was quite full ot fancy articles in anticipation of the Christmas week fair, which was to commence to-da: The reverend father barely succeeded in saving his | papers and the communion Vessels from the altar. ‘The total loss is estimated at $12,000 to $15,000, of which $9,000 comprises the building and the balance the church property, the articles for the fair, &c. Tho building was insured for $6,500 in the Merchants’ Mu- | tual of Newark, and on the church property, vestments, | , there was $2,000 insurance in the Liverpool and Father Schneider bad no insurance upon library and other private property, ail of which was lost. Diligent inquiry was made yesterday both in Passaice and Paterson to ind whether there existed an “0. A. U.” organization, but pone could be discovered, | although it 1s pretty certain that recent attempts have been made to organize a “council” in Paterson. Whether or not this conflagration is the result of the anti-Catholic movement is a question. Father Schnei- der will confer with the Bishop to-morrow relative to the rebuilding of the church edifice, which will be com- | menced immediatel Even the proposed fair will be held, the public Lyceum having been gratuitously ten- | dered for the purpose and patronage guaranteed by the public generally.

SOLEMNIZATION OF THE NUPTIALS OF THE DAUGHTER OF JUSTICE DAVIS WITH THE SON OF JUSTICE SWAYNE LAST EVENING—A BRILL- IANT AND INTERESTING SCENE. Bioominctox, LL, Dee. 22, 1875. This evening there occurred aj event matrimonial which forthe time attracts to this pleasant, wide- awake and mercurial little prairie city the attention of its social world, Its approach has for weeks kept the city alive with pleasurable excitement and the modistes | of Bloomington busy with the work of fashionable | preparation, Nor have she belles of Bloomington their orders to the pent-up Utica of this provincial metropolis, but have called upon the artists of Chicago, St. Louis and the more remote Gotham, For be it understood that, though we live “away out West,” and im a city distinguished for nothing remagkable save its schools, its energy and the vast contiguity of prairie, which the years have con- verted into productive farms and populated with happy and prosperous citizens, Dame Fashion rules her fair subjects here as rigorously as on Manhattan Island. Thirty-six years ago David Davis, then a man of twenty-five, @ native of Cocil county, Maryland, came to Illinois, and, after a year spent in Pekin, then a leading trading point on the Illinois, settied in the hamlet whose christening only a year or two befere had named. it Bloomington, and engaged in the practice of law. While a student of law in Lenox, Mass, he had met and loved Miss Sarah Walker, daughter of Judge in 1838, returned to Lenox, married her and brought her West to cheer his frontier home. ‘Through the years which have passed since the young lawyer sought a home in Illinois his life has been | Diessed with prosperity.

His marriage w blessed with two children, one a son married and liv- ing here, a pleasant, courteous gentleman; the other a daughter whose nuptials were celebrated ‘this. even- ing. The lucky man who plucked this fair flower, becoming the possessor of a wife. whose amiability down, and with it the heavy cornice of the roof. This | aud many virtues have caused her to be beloved, and | also a favorite in this city, in which she has spent the greater part of ber life, and the heir presumptive to a “‘big bonanza’ in the way ofa fortune, is Henry Stuart Swayne, a manufacturer, of Toledo, Ohio, sou of Jus- tice Swayne, the co-! laborer on the Bench of Judge Davis. The home of Judge Davis has ever been noted for the simplicity and plaini of the life of its occupants and the arrangements for the wedding were conducted without display or ostentation. Indeed, for some time it was: undecided whether the wedding "would not be strictly private. The invitations, printed on plain white, in modest lithographic script, read as follows:— | RRR oe 6 ana 3 3 Judge and Mrs, Davis request your attendance at the Marriage of their Daughter, at seven o'clock, Wednesday Evening, Dec, 22, 187 ; Bloomington.

The wedding occurred promptly at the hour named this evening, at the clegant residence of Judge Davis, upon the eastern edge of the city, in whose spacious, richly furnished parlors a brilliant company bad as- sembled. The bride entered leaning on the arm ofher father, and Mrs. Davis on the arm of Justice Swayne, The bride 1s a brunette, of pleasing form, rather above | the medum height, with a face whic though pot beautiful, may be called handsome in feature and of | charming expression. The groom, a stalwart man of nearly six feet stature, with honest, manly features, and bearing the expression ot culture and refined intelligence, wore the conven- tional fall dress, The cercmony was performed by Rev. John Maclean, formerly pastor of the First Presbyterian church, of Bioomingion, under whose pastoral carg Miss Davis bad worsbipped from her childhood. The service was short and impressive, followed by an eloquent prayer tor the future temporal and eternal happiness of the happy pair. Alter the ceremony and con- gratulations and an hour or two spent iu an {uformal reception and social intercourse, with the guests, Mr. and Mra. Swayne were driven to the depot, and departed for a tour in the South, includ- ing Florida and Kentucky and a trip to Washington, Alter their revurn here they will go to Toledo and be- come residents of that city, ‘The invited guests were from all parts of the Union, including Justice Swayne and wife, of Ohio; two brothers of the groom—one of them General Wagner Swayne; Hon. Jobn Wentworth, of Chicago, and is daughter; Justice Breese, of Illinois; Hon. Jesse W. Fell General Gridley, Migs Scranton, Of Scranton, Pa. ; x-Governor T, D. Cox and lady; Hartwell Osborne an H.

THE HOMGOPATHIC BALL. ‘The fourth annual charity ball in aid of the North- eastern Homeopathic Dispensary took place last night at the Lexington Avenue Opera House, Third avenue aud Fifty-eighth street, The attendance, a hougn somewhat small in numbers, was char. erized by superiority of tone.’ In fact, er pal ot aoe night, taken throughout, exhibited a marked distinction to that of former years, inasmuch as there was an absence of the usual crowd of politicians, while there was a greater representation of the better society of New York, REAL ESTATE SALES. ‘The Exchange was crowded yesterday; but few sales took place.
