THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1867. THE CATTELL TESTIMONIAL Presentation of tho Sliver Service Yesterday Afternoon. Pjlfccbcs bj Major McMlchacl, Senator tattcll, Hon. CharlCH Gilpin, (icncral Kolioso... ia lDlrrrlinK and Memorable Orr-aMon. In Tde Kvbnino Telegraph of Monday after noor. we pave a detailed description of the bsndcome silver service which wan to be pre. tented to the Hob. Alexander (J. Cattell, United Ptatcs Senator from New Jersey, together with the circumi-tnrcea which led to tho affair. According to the programme, the presentation took place yesterday afternoon, and was at tended with many incidenta that will Ion? caus It to be remembered by those who were present. At 3 o'clock the contributors, in company with, a number of invited guests, left the West Jersey Ferry, in Cam.len, in carriages provided by the ommltte having the matter in charge. Mer hanUvtlle, the residence of Senator Cattell, is situated about three miles from the built-up portion of Camden, and is one of the most beau tiful suburban villages in the United States. A number of our prominent merchants liave res-l-dences there, which in themselves are marvels i taste; while the surroundings are as romantic m nature and art combined could render them. The party arrived at the spot at htlf-pust 3 o'clock, and wLen all were gathered together, the number amounted to about one hundred and fifty, including several ladles. Among those present, New Jersey was represented by his Excellency Governor Ward; the Hon. II. M. Cougar, Sccrctarytol State; the Hon. George M. Robeson, Attorney-General; the lion. Edward Bctlle, State Senator from Camden county; and Mr. Thos. W. Cattell, of Salem, the father ol the Benator. Philadelphia was represented by the lion. Morton McMichael, Mayor; Henry C. Howell, Esq , Hieb Sheriff; the Hon. Charles Gilpin, United States District Attorney; the JIod. Charles O'Neil, Representative in Con irress; Colonel Henry H. Hineham, Postmaster; Colonel Wm. 13. Thomas; Major Henry W. Janes, together with the most prominent merchants of the city, including many who do not belong to the same political organization with Senator Cattell. Indeed, the whole movement, from the beginning, has been kept apart from the sphere of politics, which were entirely ignored ou the occasion. The Presentation took place at 4 o'clock, wnen the large company assembled in the parlors. The service was ac companied by the following presentation letter, signed by all the contributors, and executed in the highest style of penmanship: PniLADKi ruiA, May 14, JSC". Hon. Alexander O, Catiell, United btulea beuator froiu Kew Jer-ey Dear btr: A It ol your personal Ir lends, who hold In grateful nmembrance the deep Interest ever shown by you In the prosperity of Philadelphia, and who, in common Willi their fellow citlzeni, appreciate and admire the succet.8 ot your stralnhtlorward efforts to scure League Island an the United Stale depot for Iron-clad vessels ol war, have the honor to as that you ill accent the accompanying modest set ot silver as a alight tokeu of esteem and regard. Address by the Hon. Morton McMichael. When everything was ready, Mr. S'tmuel T. Cauby, Chairman of the Committee on Presenta tion, introduced the Hon. Morton McMichael, Mayor ot Philadelphia, who addressed the re cipient of the testimonial in his nappiest man ner, speaking as follows: The custom or formally presenting substantial giiiB in acknowledgment ot epeiUl services uud its origin In wise ana laudable moii ves. As a con. temporary approval ot merit, it not only rewards the individual w ell-doer, but also stimulates o'Uers to similar well-doing. Aud as such gilts are gene rally ol a kind tbat may be transmitted from gene ration to generation, they preserve memorials of the transaction alter the Immediate actors have lei i the scene, aad thus perpetuate what else might be forgotten. This custom lias long prevailed in most civilized countries. In our own day, and especially in our own land, like many other good usages, It has been carried to excess, and In fre quent instances is bo far perverted from its proper design as to lose its significance. Scarcely a week passes In which we do not read or hear of so-called "testimonials" ottered for reasons so frivolous, and to persons so little entitled to re ceive them, as to excite our contempt or indigna tion. Bat the abuse of what Is right la use If ought not to deter from Its suitable use; and we have assembled to tender these tokens of our ap preciation to Mr. Cattell, and, It that were post.! ble, with all the more alacrity and zeal because each tokens are too often bestowed on the un worthy. And here let me say that highly as I esteam Mr. Cattell much as I value his friendship for me, and ready as I shall always be to show my friend ship for him it I thought this demonstration was Inspired only by personal feelings, and was in tended only to accomplish personal ends, I should not be willing to take any conspicuous part ia It 1 know it is otherwise. 1 know that those who have procured these coBtly and elegant articles have been controlled In deing so by public aud patriotic considerations. Faroe It from me, how ever, to suggest that our regard and affection for the man have had no share in this recognition of bis acts. On the contrary, they have had a large snare. If Mr. Uattell were not the gr icioas aud genial gentleman he is; if he had not linked him. self to our hearts by numerous kinduesses aud courtesies; if In our social aud business intercourse We had not been drawn into sympathy with his large and generous nature, our sense of bis public deeerviugs, though it might have been manifested in this permanent form, would car taiuly not have beeu accompanied ia its expres sion by the good will which all of us so cordially entertain. ur main object now is to commemorate Mr. . ouuucuuou wuu an event oi irreat na tional importance. Of course I am understood ae relerriug to the League Island question. I do not propose to go Into the detutls ot that controversy. 1 hey are too familiar to require repetition. It la eaough to recall the fact that for years tbe people vi m uiiaueipuia WBrvflUKoflu iur struggle lO la auce tne national government to aocepi as a vol. notary donation wnat any other government would have been giaa to purcnase at any price, within the borders ot that city, as you do not need to be told, exists what, by all unpre judiced observers is admitted to be teoitra. phically, topographically aud climatically; woe. ther viewed iu its relations to the river or the ocean; to the fields of coal or the beds of iron; to the supply of labor from a great manufacturing metropolis, or the snnnlv of rood from an agricul tural region of Inexhaustible fertility the finest lie iur ou immense uavsl depot, adapted to modera conditions and necessities, that tne world can fur nish. This site, thus favored, tbe Navy Depart ment, most concerned aud best qualified to judge, steadily laDoreo to secure, that it was notable to do sosullicieotly Indicates the formidable resist since made by sectional Interests, operating through persisu-m ujioiciio.cuiaiions, ana the vigorous ana inuiumij vuons required to overcome that resistance. Time after time the enemies of tbe Lenma T.i hh measure devised new schemes to defeat It; time after lime ita advocates were obliged to detect aud k. iti a these schemes with renewed diligence unit energy. I do not intend to detract in the slightest degree from tbe labors and saoriUces of other gen tlemen who constantly and most effectively gave host endeavors to tbe cause, many of whom are now near me, and to whom be all praise for .hir conduct, when I say that Mr. Cattell was ma fiintmost of these advocates At the very outset of the contest be engaged in it 77k .hr.iriBtlo fervor, and so long aa It oon- .w " .... .k.iMri nnthlnz of his Intrepid spirit. Possessing remarkable tenacity of purpose joined 10 not less remarsauie -- resalrijrly, and was truly Instant, In season and out ol season." Never cJanntpd, never despondent, he met every freeh attack with frenta confidence, and cnnimunlcating his own In vincible conrnge to his allies, ihey fought on till they achieved the victory. To ell tbe good men and true who were ranged under oor onnnere our ihanks are eminently due; but es It was Mr. Oattell's rare privilege to consummate) the 'trinmph which, as a citizen, be had so largely helped to win, by delivering in his place, in the Senate of tho United Stales, a masterly argument, wblcb no one conld refute or answer, It is fitting, as the representative ot tbe rest, that be should be singled ont for exceptional honors, (JM most for tunate was be tbat, after having borne himself so nobly under the disadvantages of an unequal con diet, he could tlms at last, as their own peer, wltbin their own lists, strike down the hostilities of ihote numbers ot Oongresa who had waged malignant wpr on tbi beneficent project, and most fortunate was tbe nival service of the country tbat at such a juncture louud snob, a champion. Mr. Cattell: It is now my pleasant duty, in be half of (be donors, to transfer to yonr possession, ibis tervlce of silver. It was made for you; it be lunge to u; It wl'l remain with yon. Hot the aetoilailciis conrectt.d with it and with this ga thering will belong to and will remain with us not lees tlntii with yon. We shall look back to thle ns an occasion when, through this instru mentality, we gave utterance to the warmth with which we (bench you as a companion, the ear necitiees wi'h which we love you as a friend, the sincerity with which we reepect you as a citizen, and the admiration with which we regard you as a statesman. And may we not hope that when your voice and our voices are mute in death, those wbo come to till our places, as they revive the me mories of this dny, will be prompted to good deeds by tbe example which you have set, and the tri bute which we have paid to that example. Tbercmaiks of tbe Mayor were listeued to amid the most impressive silence, and at the close were greeted with much applause. Senator Cattell's Response. On the conclusion ot the presentation address, Senator Cattell steppeo forward to respond, but so great was his emotion that some moments elapsed before he could find words to express hie gratitude. He then Bpoke as follows: Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen How shall I find words to express my grateful acknowledgment lor this expression of your kindly feeling! If it were possible for me to exhuust tbe entire language of ihanks, I should but leebly Indicate the deep emo tion that stirs iry heart, and vainly strives to Uud suitable expression by the lips. Goutessing my poverty even In thanks, I must content myself with tbe use of those simple words, "I thank you," words of dally nse, and often lightly Spoken, but s'ill words of import and fall of meauing when ihey come from the deep recesses of a grateful heart, burdened witb a sense of its obligations. I wish I could feel that I was in some degree wortby of tbls magnificent testimonial. But it comes, I am sure, more f rom the partiality of you, my kind and generous fi lends, than from any real merit in him yon thus choose to bouor. I some times think no man was ever blessed with such fiieudsjaud ot all tho blessings which a gracious Providence has scattered aiong my pathway througli lite, 1 thank Wm most tor the kind, faith ful and loving frtenus which He has given me. Throughout the touts" ot a not uneventful busi neBs Hie of more in-.u thirty years, running through teutons ol ad M-'sity as w-ll as prosperity, witb alternating periods of sunshine and storm, I have been favored with 'he steadfast friendship of such men as aay one m:,ht be proud of. Could there be a racn v fitting illustration of this than tbe circumstances of to day. I am sur rounded by the lamilmr faces of friends who come to add to my debt of i:ra.itude. Old friends, many of you, who, when tv..nty years ago 1 came a stranger to your beanii:nl city, and launched my boat upon tbe sveepl if? tide of trade and com merce, took me by the hand, welcomed me to your marts of trade, place-: me In positions of trust and honor, aud sustained and encouraged me by your friendly counsel and your words of cheer. And I am fully co-jc: jns, Mr. Mayor and gen tlemen, that it is to this kindly feeling of my ge nerous friends, which n-agpifles every virtue and is blind to every frailty, mat I am indebted for this beantilul and costly testimonial, intrinsically valuable, but in ''my heart's just estimation prized above all price," at a memento of your friend ship and the enduring t vidence that I am honored With yout respect and e.-teern. But 1 learn from the complimentary words of your presentation address, as well as from the in scription tnat mis spier, aid piate Dears, mat mis testimonial is presented by my Philadelphia friends, iu view of soma service which it is thought 1 rendered In the Senate of the united estates in advocating tbe acceptance ot League Island for the proposed na-val station for iron-clad vessels or war. I baveonly to say in this point, that I was an earnest ad vacate of tbat measure, and labored to the extent of my ability to secure its success. But in this I did no mere man ray duty, believing then as I do new, most sincerely, that I was serving tbe best interest oi the nation In urging the ac ceptance of this unequalled location, generously u-Ldered to the government as a fre gift by the city of Philadelphia. I remember to have said in the course of my remarks on tbis measure la tbe Senate, wblch you are pleased to call a "masterly argument," that I fully agreed with the late As sistant Secretary of the Navy, Captain Fox, In his declaration "that the map of the world does not resent so desirable a location ior tne estaoiisa ment of a naval station, especially in reference to the building, repairing and preserving ot iron vesFele and lron-clads as League Island." Ibis is a strong assertion, bat X declare it to be mv candid ( Dinion. And I learn that one of the scientific gentlemen composing the late Board for the examination ot L.ee.j'ue island, a gentiemiu who has had ampl opportunity lo. observation on this point abroad, expresses substantially the same opinion. lou are correct in jour statement, hit. mayor, that the measure did not meet me in tbe Senate as a new question. I bad been familiar with it for years, and had done what L could aa a private el'i- zen or tne country to st cure tne passage oi tne oui. 1, consequently, too'x to the measure naturally; and, it you will pat don tbe apparent egotism, I will say tbat I cousen ed, as soon as I took my seat in the Senate, to stand godfather to the bill, determined o secure its passage, and to "tight it out on tbat line" it it took all the winter. Tbe opposition to it hy those who favored New London was positively malignant, and the most extravagant statements were made to prejudice tbe Senate against the location. The friends of New London occupied the time of the JNaval Commit'ee with their argument for three days. Senator Foster, Kaprvsentative nranoagee and Mr. Bowles, the paid agentof tbe New London luterest, occupied in turn the floor. It happeued tbat I was the only friend Of league island present. 1 listened with all the patleuce l conld commana to tueir argumuub, auu tiieu repiieu iu a speech of about an hour, closing the case. In half an hour afterwards the Chairman of tbe Naval Committee came to my seat and informed me tbat the committee would report immediately in favor of the bill, with bat one member of tub committee dissenting. Iu my judgment mis was toe taming point in favor ot League Island, aud from that hour I never doubted tbe passage of the bill. It was, however, held back so loug that It required some .effort to get It up for uctiou at so late a period of the session. Bat we suooeedeo at last, and you know the result. Tbat League Island is to be the great naval station ot the nation, and, in my opinion, the great naval station of the world, is a fixed tact. That the nation win oe tne greatest gainer is beyond all douot; bat that the establisn ment of this great naval depot within the bound aries of your city will auu to your prosperity; tbat it will give emolovmeat to your mechanics aud laborers, and Utud to build up and populate the lower part of tbe city, I presume no one will pretend to question. And while we are congratulating ourselves upoa tbe successful terminatioa of this struggle, let as not forget to honor the uArly friends of the mea sure, your distinguished representative, Judge Kelley, and his able colleagues, Messrs. Myers, O'Neill, Thayer, and Randall, who labored ear nestly and successfully to carry the measure through the House of .Representatives. Nor should we forget tbe valuable services of Senator Orimes, Chairman of the Naval Oomralt. tee, and his colleague, Mr. Hendricks, of Indiana, both of whom were our steadfast friends, aud atile and etlloleut advocates of the measure. I de sire to state also, as a simple matter of justice, that the (Senators from fennsylvaula were your ear nest friends, and would have spoken on behalf of the measure, only that they yieioed lo the sugges tion of friends who thought further disoumion would only delay aotiou, and possibly result in the loss of the bill, from t. bning crowded aside by other important measuies upon which aolion was absolutely esseutlal. And now, kind friend once more, with alt tbe fullr cos of a gratelnl heart, I beg to thank you. 1 thank yon for myself and for my family, with whom 1 hope these enduring mementoes ot your friendship will rema n as heirlooms for many generations. 1 thank you in behalf of my State tbe gallant little Stale of New Jersey to which I owe so much; for when you honor the represeuta live you honor the (State that clothed him with otholal robes. And I am especially thankful that this expression of your regard has come to me while yet ray venerable sire, treading close on foursrore years, lives to witness the scene; for If I have lived to any purpose the credit Is due to him who taught me, In early lite, tbat earnestness of purpose, Integrity of character, and fidelity to the eternal principles of truth and Justice, were the essential elements of true manhood. And now, Mr. Mayor, permit me to thank yon personally for all the generous words which yon have here spoken, and for tbe dignity you hare given to this occasion bv your presence, and the part which yon have taken. I accept thle testi tnonlal with tbe assurance tbat I shall cherish the recollection of this nou to th latest rrritr i; life, and sver to proud and grcteful for saco friends as surround me to-day. Alter the presentation was thus cotioluded, the whole party adjourned to the dining-room, Where a substantial and beautiful repat was spread.. The burdens of the table were appro pi lately disposed of, and then a patriotic humor seized the company, and the singing of the "Star Ppanglcd Banner" was decided to be the most appropriate mode ot giving it vent. This resulted in an adjournment to the grounds surrounding the house, in tho mtdst of which stands thu tall flaestalT of the Corn Kxchange Association, which was presented to Senator Cattell at the clos. of the war. The party gathered about this; and, while the old flag was fluttering in the air above tbem, they sang with hearty earnest ness the etirrlng national anthem. " Rally Round the Klag,' and other patriotic songs followed, after which spirited addressee were made by several gentb'men. Addresses by Ucn. Hobeson and Others. Attorney-General Robeson spoke in a fitting and eloquent strain. He paid a high compli ment to the Stc of New Jersey, declaring that it was beyond all doubt better, represented in the National Senate than any of the other States, by the successful merchant, Alexander 0. Cat tell, and the finished scholar, Frederick T. Fre linghuyseu. Senator Cattell also addressed the company in eloquent and impressive words, in the course of which, at the request of Mayor McMichael, he repeated the following beautiful ode of his own composition, which now appears in print for the first time: ODE TO THE FLAG, T1Y SENATOR CATTEI.L. Wave ou, tliou banner of the fret! We love thy glotlotw folds tlin more, Since treasou'a liuud liaa v.ilnly strove Xo breuk. thy luugio power of yore. Yes, broadly wave, thou dear old Flan Ioved emblem of our nation's power Fiom every hill aud mountain cra'j. In tula our country's airugliug Lour. Thy stars, still bright as burniHiiiM gold tnall light the legions of the brave, Who strike, as did our sires of out, Aud ttisU to glory or tho grave. Thy pearly white and azure blue, Shall ue-tr be stiiiued by treason's blight' But washed in blood, shall wave anew. For Truth and Freedom and the Klght. The Hon. Charles Gilpin, of this city, alsio ad dressed the assemblage, with which the exercises were brought to a close. Thus the afternoon passed in the m09t edify ing and pleasing manner, and about 8 o'clock the large company dispersed, the larger portion returning to the city as they tame. B SCOTT. JR.. AUCTIONEER.
