Seventh and Chestnut sts. AMERICAN THANKSGIVING IN PARIS Speeches of Minister Bigelow, General Schofield, &o. RECEPTION OF THE TOAST TO THE EMPEROR. A Rather Exciting Scene. [Correspondence or the N.Y. Heraie.?. The American residents and transeient sojourners in Paris celebrated the national Thanksgiving last evening by a grand din ner at the Grand Hotel, which passed off in splendid style, The affsiir was very hur riedly gotten up, it having been talked of but ten days before. It was principally through the exertions of Mr. James L. Clag horn, a distinguished loyal lawyer of Phila delphia, that the ball was set in motion. .Invitations were issued, and all the arrange ments were wade, and the result was that everything passed off splendidly. At half 'past seven' the ticket-holders and in vited guests, numberhig about two hun dred and fifty persons, assembled in an ante-room • and at eight sat down to dinner -in the magnificent dining-room of the Grand Hotel. Here six tables, elegantly set and ornamented, had been arranged, the room was hung with American and French flags, intertwined, and was brilliantly ilium. nated. In the centre and at the end of the other tables was a raised esti. ade, upon - which the President and the invited guests of the evening sat. In the centre sat the President,. Hon. John Jay, of New York; at his right Mr. Bigelow, United States Minister at this court, and on his left Major- General Schofield, Rev. Dr. Sunderland, Brigadier-Gen. Schofield and Commander Hunterfornierly of the United States gunboat Montgomery. On the right, next to Mr. Bigelow, sat Brigadier-General Wherry, of Gen. Schofield's staff; Colonel Hay, Secre tary of Legislation, and Mr.Nicolay, United States Consul in Paris. In the rear of the President was hung a portrait of President Johnson, and back of tlds, emboweredin an artificial bosquet, a band of twenty-five mu sicians discoursed most excellent music. The tables were beautifully ornamented, -and boquets of real cameliasand other flow ers were distributed at proper intervals. At eight o'clock the company, numbering two hundred and fifty-three, and about equally composed of ladies and gentlemen, sat down to dinner. All the Northern and Western States were represented in this galaxy of bright eyes and cheerful faces; butt our Southern friends in Paris, like the people at, the battle of Biadenburg, "some how didn't seem to take no interest," and did not come. Mr. Jay; as president, was assisted by the following gentlemen as vice presidents:— George L. Schuyler, Aew York; Richard M. Roe, New York; James Phalen, New York; John Monroe, Paris; Thomas W. Evans, Philadelphia; • Henry Woods, Boston; George T. Richards, Paris; Hiram Hutchinson, New York; George S. Par tridge, New York; C. S. P. Bowles, Paris; James L. Claghorn, Philadelphia; Hiram Sibley, Rochester; L. S. Worthington ; Cin cinnati; E. D. Peters, Boston; G. Gale. Pittsburgh;, T. B. • Bryan„.. Chicago, and Judges Caton and Dickey, of Illinois. The dinner occupied two hours, and at 10 o'clock the President, 'Mr. Jay, called the assemblage to order, and, after thanks had been returned by Rev. Dr. Canfield, of Massachusetts, he made a few appropriate - remarks, and gave the first regular toast of the evening—" The President of the United States." This was; received with threti hearty and prolonged - cheers the ladies rising and waving their- handkerchiefs en thusiastically. The bkuds struck up "Hail Columbia," which wits also greeted with loud applause. Mr. Jay then gave the second regular toast Emperor of the French." - As no response had been made to the toast of the President, it was intended that,none should be made • to.his, but that it should be _received with cheers: • The assembly was about giving them, when an excited American leaped from his seat, and, jumping into the -middle of the aisle, cried out, "No American can drink that toast while a single French soldier re mains in Mexico." The-guests generally,. however, seemed to consider that, under all the circumstance, any Aemonstration of ill feeling was out of place, and so-..drankand ' cheered his. Majesty, although, truth. com pals me to state, neith,er. very deeply nor heavily. The music toThis toast was Part antpour. The next 'toast was fiThEi Memory ,of Washington," drank standing andin silence —music, "Dead March." The next was "The Memory of Abraham Lincoln"—of course received. in the'same manner, The THE DAILY JVENfN( BULIAMM PHI next toast was "The Diplomatic and. dod-: ular Ftepresentativeabt the United ; _States in Foieign Coyntrea.'' "Ye.iikee Hon. John Bigelow, Envoy Extraordi nary and Minister Plenipotentiary at this court, haVing-been called upon by the Pre= sident to respond to this toast, rose and said: Mr. Chafrinan—lt is 'a :favorite motto of the service with which you. have been pleased to "associate, my nauie, that speech is silver, but silence is gold: In allowing myself to be betrayed by you into the ex.hibition of an apparent preference for the baser metal, I presume I shall convict , myself of being more of an American than of a diplomatist. If so, I have the 'faith to believe. as„l look' around me, that I could not.take my sins to a more indulgent con-. feßsionaL[Applause.] My firsKoffence against the golden rule of silenmust be to tnank you, sir and the cosnmitt for the faithful manner in which you by our words, and for they by their deeds, have interpreted the ,gratification we all feel in finding that one of our Most ancient and cherished festivals has survived the sad . and trying vicissitudes of the past four years, and is so fitly honored this distant land; that we are permitted to"assemble once more a united pstple at the summons of our consti tutional President to testify our gratitude for the countless blessings of which, both as a nation and as individuals, we have been:: the receivers: [Cheers.] I venture to assure i you, sir, that there are none whose hearts swell with deeper emotion at this spectacle than those whose public or private duties have exiled them from their native land during those. eventful years. __[Cheers.] Your president, my friends, has seen fit to associate my name with the diplomatic rep resentation of the United States; and though I know you all take the deepe.st pcssible in terest in whatever affects the dignity or honor of our country, I am sure none of you will expect me to attempt to entertain you with revelations or speculations about our fo reign relations. Though those relationswere never probably more interesting than they have been for the last two or three years, "I OM persuaded that they do not inspire you with any serious anxiety. Not speaking of myself,. who am only a subordinate, I feel quite safe in assuming that that unflinching faith which in common with the rest of our country people you have exhibited under the greatest emergencies, in . the wisdom which directs our national councils, will not falter now. [Loud cheers.] Nor should it.- When I first presented Myself as your national representative to the distinguished statesman who directs so ably the foreign affairs of this empire, I took occasion to let him know that I was not Unconscious of my inexperience as a diplomatist. He re plied, with characteristic courtesy and wisdom, that according to his ex perience the most important qua lifications for a diplomatist Were the faculty and the disposition to look at diplomatic questions from the point of view occupied by those with whom one is nego tiating as,well as from one's own. There never was more wisdom or sound states manship expressed in fewer words. It is the faithful adherence to that principle by the eminent statesman who now presides over the destinies of our country, and his immediate and lamented predecessor, that renders our public policy both at home and abroad so simple and direct as to stripit of all mystery, and, I might also add, of all difficulty. [Applause.] If I were disposed, therefore, I conld tell you no secrets; for yon can judge as well as - I what is the logical necessity of our position as a nation, in spired by the great principle to which I have alluded—and which is neither more nor less than the doing to other na tions as we would have other nations do to us—must in almost any ima ginable contingency require. No one who has studied the measutes and conduct of our present Chief Maestrate can entertain a reasonable doubt that this principle 'has been and will continue to be his faithful pride. [Applause.] .By its light all nations can distinctly see the shortest routes which lead to the friendship or to the enmity of the United States. 'By its light they can see that if they wish to find an enemy inns they will have to make US Estreh--[eheers]—for our policy islogically andlnevitably peace and I friendship with all the world; and it is one of the blessed convictions for which I have desired to unite with you in giving thanks this day that our country has now every reasonable prospect of enjoying a term of peace with all the world, to which no living statesman can presume to fix a limit. [Cheers.] , I learn from the lips of thedistin guished soldier whose achivements will fill some of the most thrilling pages in the an nals of our country, and whose tresence with us to-night lends a special greet) to this charming festival—(eheerq—that within the past six months our country has paid off and restored to civil life an army of eight hundred, thousand men. No stronger proof of its peaceful dispOsition could be given. From the same source I also learn thatithas also reserved a foree of two hundred thou sand veteran troops—the remains of the largest, and, I presume, most formidable, army ever mustered into service-which are sufficient to show that its future policy can not be influenced in the slightest degree by a sense of weakness. [Cheers.] As a poli tical power, therefore, we have attained to that happy equilibriuin of forces which enables .us to do precisely what the aggregate wisdom and conscience of the nation shall prescribe—nothing more and nothing less. [Renewed cheers.] It is dif ficult to imagine for a State a more desira ble condition, nor, let me-add, one that car ries with it graver - responsibilities for the wise economy of its influence upon the rest of the world. [Continued cheering,] I ask your pardon, Mr. Chairman, for dwelling upon so grave a-theme so long on a purely festive occasion, and when there are so many around you competent to give yon more seasonable entertainment. Permit me, however, before taking my seat, to as sure you- and the committee how highly I appreciate the honor of being their guest this evening, and I beg you and, them to ac cept this public expression of my most cor dial thanks.* [Applause.] Mr. Nicolay, United States Consul in Paris, said a few words in reply to the por tion, of the toast referring to our consular, representatives. The next toast was the long looked for one of the evening, for it was known that it would call up a distinguished guest from whom all wwere anxiotts to hear. It was "The Army and Navy of the United States." When the hand had ceased playing Yankee Doodle, Major General Schofield rose to reply to this toast, and was received with tremendous enthusiasm. The ladies rose and waved their handkerchiefe, and the gentlemen shouted till they were hoarse. The General, after bowing his' acknow ledgements, said :—FEnnow COUNTRYMEN I want words to express to you the satisfac tion which will be felt in the heart of every - soldier andnailor when he learns the man ner in which the naives. of the army and navy have been received by you to-nigh - I will at this time but allude briefly to on 'of the great lessons taught by the America 1 war—the grandest lesson of modern time . A great people, which has heretofore lived under a government so' Mild that they were scarcely aware of its existence, has found, *time of war; that government to be one of the strongest in the world—[cheers] rais ing and maintaining armies and navies vaster than any ever before knowu. [Cheers.],ln point of characters, in point of physicl and moral qualities, in point of discipline and of the mobility of large masses, ',the armies of the. United. States have never before been •equided. - [Loud cheers.] Yet this, greatas it -As, is not the,'greatest wonder of the American war. This vast army,its on as its work was done, was quietly nded, and every man went to Ilia home as uietly as ttie - Clitlitian goes bask from of bit' a ,Sabbath ""morning, and 'each soldier *interred oon bis avocations of puce, a bet ter-citizen-L., than he was before ha became soldier. [Renewed apPlatise.] = This was the grandest - lesson of the war; It shovis that thepower of a nation to maintain i 0 dignity and: integrity dies not result from or depend upon itetbini •of government; that the greatest natural strertgth--,the power to mass the 'largest armies in time of war— is - entirely consistent with' the 'broadest liberty of the citizen in time of peace. [Bn- - thuslasm.] Permit me.. in -sonclasion, to propose a toast to which I know we will all drink heartily : " The old Jrietiiiship be tween France and the United States: ,may, it be increased and perpetuated." Gen.Schofteld's toast was drunk with great enthusiasm, and :upon his taking , his. seat the applause which followed his remarks was deafening; The next toast—" The Clergy,;'. was re sponded to in a few eloquent remarks by Rev. Byron Sunderland, pastor of the American chapel. - Colonel John C. Hay, Secretary of Lega tion, responded eloquently and humorously. to the last toast of the evenlAg, "Onr Coun trywomen:" and after the _beautiful poems written for the occasion had been read by the Rev. C. T. Brooks, of Newport, one writteffby himself and the other by Miss Redden, of St. Louis, the assembly dispersed after singing a hymn to the tune 'of "Old Hundred." , The committee have determined, in com memoration of the banquet, to publish afull report for - circulation in pamphlet form. THE ICE BLOCKADE. Matters at St.Loris—More Disasters Ap. prehended, - A St. Louis despatch, dated the 19th, to the Cincinnati Commercial, says: No change in the river .ince yesterday. The boatmen and insurance agents held a meeting yesterday, appointed a committee to devise means for the protection of boats now endangered, but they can .do nothing unless the ferry boats will engage in the service of breaking up the ice. It is reported the river is clear of ice be tween Carondelet and Jefferson Barracks, which increases the dangers here. The weather .was moderate, yesterday and last night, but it has grown colder since this morning. The boats at the foot of Pixie street lay huddled together and cannot be moved. Most of them have been stripped of their furniture in anticipation of farther trouble. The Bannock City and Big Horn were damaged more then at first reported. The Bannock City had her shaft and wheel wrenched off and taken overboard as well as her cylinder timbers. She is badly crushed otherwise, and the" sum of at least $12,000 will be consumed by her repairs, providing she escapes further injury. The Bannock City is owned by A. Hine, of Keo. Ink, and E. Carleton, of Davenport, lowa, and is a new boat. She cost over s3o,ooo,and is insured here for $20,000. In the Colum bian, $lO,OOO, and United States, $5,000. The Big Horn's damage, instead of being slight, will require $5,000 for repairs, her machinery as well as wood work being damaged. The Roanoke, whi left this port for the Ohio last Thursday, st - a rock or other obstruction below Com eree, in this river, sunk, and is probably total loss. Her ergo was about one hu dred and forty tons of blooms and some ur. The Roanoke was valued at about $2, ,000, and owned and insured in Pittsburgh. The Platte Valley, bound here from Vicksburg, with a ve y valuable, cargo of cotton, Sc., sunk enly. She found her self hard aground at Hercaleanville, and oil Sunday still lay hard and fast. She was making a crossing, and was near the Illinois side when she grounded, and the river has fallen several feet since. She lays straight, and there was no ice near her. It and the channel were diverted away from her. She is seven miles below Widow Wetter% There were false rumors of this steamer being broken in two. The sudden formation of heavy ice and a gorge below here found many boats on their way to and from this port. They had too little warning to be able to provide for their safety. We learn that those splendid ves sels, the Henry Ames, Atlantic, Glasgow and Jennie Lewis, are all aground at Craw ford's, and probably by this time are sur rounded by and in &nger from the ice. The sudden decline of water was the cause of their misfortune. The W. H. Osborne; another large and fine New Orleans packet from this port, is aground at Bainbridge, and reported damaged by ice. A despatch has been received announcing the Only Chance` ice-bound at Neely's. She was bound to Arkansas river. The G. W. Graham is safe at Dog-tooth Bend—ashore and safe. f A number of steam boatmen from iee-bound boats between here and Cairo, have arrived from below. Ness' Jersiky Natters. CoNsECRATING A Cm:rms.—One day.last week a Congregational Church was organ ized and constituted at Forestrtirove Sta tion, on the line of the Millville and Glass boro Railroad. After the preliminary ser vices had been disposed of by choosing Rev. Lewis Sabin, D. D., of Templeton, Mass., as Moderator, Mr. Theodore Bliss, of Phila delphia, as Secretary; and after duly con sidering the question of the expediency of forming the brethren into a church, accord ing to their express desire; and examining the creed and covenant they had adopted, in relation to all of which the Council came to a satisfactory conclusion ; religious ser vices took place as follows : Ist Invocation and reading of the Scriptures by Rev.
