Among the other distinguished guests were no
lcd Mayor Fox, Gustavo Keinak, Joseph Bullock,
ex-flherlfT Howell, W. M. Ureiner, William Elliott,
and about forty others.
After the clotn had been removed the resnlar
toasts were proposed and drunk in their order.
The first was "The Oiiecn." which was answered
by the whole company in the song of "God Save the
juen." The second was "The President," which
to turn was answered by the "Star Spangled Ban
ner." "The Donors and Benefactors of the Albion
Society, we hold them In grateful remembrance,"
was then (riven, which was followed by "Her Ma
jesty's Representatives In this Country." This waa
ably responded to by htr British Majesty's Consul,
Mr. Kortwright. He spoke of the friendly feeling
at present existing between the mother country
and our own, and expressed the conviction that It
was the earnest wish of both parties that such
feeling might never be broken.
The toast "England, the Land Of onr Birth," was
responded to by Judge Pelrce, who related several
humorous and interesting anocdoti-s connected with
his late travels In that country. These all reflected
credltablv upon the English people as a class. "Tne
United States, the Land of onr Adoption," was the
next In order, and was ably handled by Macgregor
J. Mitcne&on, Esq. Following It came "Our Sister
societies." which Mr. Horatio Gates Jones, Presi
dent of the Welsn Society, answered. He spoke of
the great good which had been accomplished by the
various societies of the several countries, among
citizens of their respective nationalities when first
landing In this country. The Albion, he said, had
been one of the best of friends to Englishmen, who
were strangers to our way or uotng inings.
"The Army and Navy'' wen responded to byGene
ral Robert Patterson, and "Philadelphia and Its
Manufacturing Interests" by Mr. Charles Spencer,
whose remarks, referring to the great commercial
and manufacturing standing of our city, provoked
the greatest applause. "The Judiclarv, the Bar,
and the Press: the Bulwark or Civil Liberty," was
eloquently answered by Colonel A. L. Snow
den, and the toast "The Ladies" called forth
the song "Here's a health to all good lasses." Va
rious other miscellaneous toasts were given and re
pponded to in a humorous manner by various well
known citizens. The occasion was one of the great
est interest and enjoyment throughout.

been determined that It should not be exceeded by
anythng or the Kind ever given in this city. The

walls are covered with the national colors
or France adorned with festoons or evergreen. In
addition to this decoration on the walls, there are ar
ranged at regular Intervals shields or the same ma
terials. The gallery and the upper tiers of the stage
also present a lively appearance, being heavily
decorated with the bright colors. Along the sides
or the room have been arranged tables, each bearing
the name or some prominent city in France or of
pome general who has rendered important service to
that country. In the centre or the
room two large stalls have been erected,
and these are so managed as to display the wares
for sale in the best possible manner. Directly over
these has been hung a gas Jet, which, when lighted,
will ixhlblt In flaming tcolors, "Vive la France!"
The main floor or the stage has been handsome:y
decorated, and It will be devoted to the purpose or a
restaurant. Over the archway leading rrom the
floor to the stage there has been hung a beautiful
flag of red, white, and blue, on which Is emblazoned
the Inscription or "Vive la Repnbllque!" Workmen
have been engaged to day In arranging the articles
for display, or which there have been immense con
tributions. To-night the fair will be opened with a
promenade coneert and the singing or the national

and ships to Liverpool and return, to China and
Japan and return, good until Dec. ,1871 ; to California

intra.
A special meeting of the Vessel Owners' and Cap
tains' Association was held te-dsy at noon, in the
rooms of the association, No. 183 Walnut street, for
the pnrpese or taking Into consideration the neces
sity of some Congressional legislation to protect and
advance the Interests of vessels engaged In the
consting trade.
The meeting was called to order by C. T. Halll
well, who moved that Mr. John W. K verm an take
the chair. Mr. Charles 11. Steel man was appointed
Secretary.
Mr, Cook, chairman or the committee appointed
by the Board cf Directors of the association to pre
pare business for the meeting, conslntlng or Messrs.
.loci Cook. Jr., Jeremiah Smith, D. S. Stetson,
Henry R, Edmunds, Philip Fitzpatrlck, and B. T.
Ilalllwell, presetted the following statement as the
unanimous report or the committee, and moved its
adoption :
Tha Vepisel Owner' and Captains' Association of Penn
sylvania, and other prona inireted in Amnrioan ahip
ing, having aftfiiublfd in general inflating; at Pliiladnl
Ibi, December 14, Witt, to consider tlia present s-rently
depressed rendition of American commerce, and tlia
measures they think necessary fur tha relief of those
branches of shipping in which thay ara more immadiatsly
interested, respectlully urse the consideration of tha
following statement upan the early attention of Congress:
lirst. That tbe depression in American commerce la
on rf the most rioni drawback from the present pros
perity snd future welfars of lb coumry now pressing
upon Oungresa for relief.
Second. That in dealing with msssnras for relio', the
present conditio of the shipping of to countty should
not be lost sight of ; and no set that enconrtges tha tut tire
bnilding or buying of TesselsAt tlieip9tsof tbetonnsg
now e tbe registry will, in onr opinion, ssour tbe relief
to Biliously desired. 1 her were at tbe close of tbe last
fiscal year 98.1s vessels, with .I.VMii.l tunnage on ths
American registry, of which considerably more than one
half was sailing vessels.
Third. That the great mass of American tonnaga con
sists of wooden vessels of 400 or SIX) tons burthen, engaged
in inland, coavting or Went India trade, and it is such
vavel as these to a very large extant, and in which many
millions of capital are invested, that this meeting (repre
sents: and the experience of sovrra! years past has shown
that the trade available for ths vessels does not pay
sufficient inoome to cover the heavy expenses arid extra
ordinary risk ; t hus practically no vessel owner who insnres
his property enn make any profit ; snd that this unhealthy
condition of a Hairs prevents the majority from insuring at
all.
Fourth. That the causes of this depression of trade ara
found in the heavy cost ef building vessels und the equally
heavy cost of running them, tbe result being that very few
are now built.
Fifth. That the island and coasting trad object to no
measure of relief that may he devised for the foreign
trade, or for the encouragement of special classes of ves
sels ; hut it be.ng the chief branch of American shipping,
its own case demands at least equal attention with the
others.
Sixth. That for ths vessels now in existence, the trade
asks measures to cheapen the cost ot running them ; and
for the vessel of th future, measure to cheapen the cost
of building.
Seventh. That for the encouragement of ths present
shipping, tbe trade asks relief trom harbor m isters' and
port wardens' fees, compulsory half-pilotage, and very
many other charges of a similar nature which are levied
by btate and municipal regulation, that are believed to
b e clearly unconstitutional, and are paid for no service
rendered, and in the aggregate cost a vessel a large sum
during the coins of a season, while the monoy they yield
does little good to any one but the official who pocket tbe
fees.
Kightn. That forthe cheapening of the constructions
vessels and their repair, the trade asks a reduction in
tbe taxes levied on tbe articles necessary for ship-building,
believing this to be (lie best and most direct means
of affording relief, and far better than any system of
drawbacks, subsidies, or bounties.
Ninth. That the grunt of permission to take out of bond
and free of duty such stores as are necessary during the
vo.Migc, will be a great encouragement to the captains
and crews of American vessels.
Tenth. That the American ship-owner and mariners
re willing, a all good citir.ens ought, to pay their fair
share of taxes for the support of tbe Government: and
believe tbat if granted fair play they still can successfully
compete with any ship owners or mariner on the face of
the globe. .
Eleventh. That copy of this statement, attested by
the officers of the meeting, be forwarded to tbe President
of tbe United States Senate and Speaker of the House of
Representatives, with the request that it be communi
cated to those honorable bodies as a respectful aud ear
nest exposition of the views of the large number of per
sons engaged in navigation in I'ennsylvania, Maw Jersey,
and Delaware.
The motion for adoption was saconde I by Henry
R. Edmunds, Ksq., Solicitor for the Association.
Nrtolceil, That we oarnestly second th action of the
Foard of Trade, th Commercial Kxrbange, Hoard of
Port Wardens, and City Councils in their endeivorto
have tbe obstructions in the river Delaware, known a the
Horse shoe Shoal, removed.
The resolutions were seconded by Mr. Henry R.
Edmunds, who showed In what laws the ditllcultlei
on tbe compulsory pilotage question lie. The prin
cipal law In the way is one passed at the very first
session or Cocgrens. Amendments to this law,
which It Is proposed to ask Congress to take action
upon, were read.
The resolutions and the additional one relative to
the Horse-shoe Shoal were then unanimous'y
adopted.
Xlr. Edmunds moved that a committee of three
from the Association be appointed to visit Washing
ton during the winter for the purpose of carrying
out the purpose or the resolutions.
This was amended by Mr. Moore to make the com
mittee the same as the one which had drawn up the
resolutions.
This amendment and resolutions were agreed to.

There is no material change in the features of
the money market. The business in call loans
is limited, owing to the sudden lull yesterday
and to-day at the Stock Board, and to employ
their balances the banks are disposed to enlarge
their sphere of operations by taking tip com
mercial paper. Some of theue establishments
are discounting the orltsrings of outside bor
rowers, though not to any extent. Kates range
from 7 to per cent., as usual. Call loans are
dull and nominal at 5(a6 per cent., according to
collaterals.
Gold is persistently dull and very steady. All
the sales this morning have been quoted at
110fall0, tloeing at the latter.
In Government bonds there is some activity
and a very firm feeling at last night's closing
prices.
Stocks were moderately aetive and prices
were arm. no saaes in otate or city bonds.
