William Welsh, Esq., was the first speaker of
the evening. Be opened -with a brief allusion to
the meaning of the term' merchant, by milking a
someetbateritioal reference to man's development,
PhYsioC/1Y,., morally, and intelleetually. In the
Ninth of his remarks, the Speaker cited, as a
Strange eelhoidenee, the foot that Columbus bad
discovered thin country. by mistake in hie search
for the last Indies, and that now the•Rast Indies
threw open their arme with greater willingness
to .tee commerce of Amerioa and our Christian'
misatortariee -than to those, of' any other land.
Numerone other hots in oanneetion with this were
introduced, to shim tb6 reciprocity of feeling no
trinity existing .betireen the people of that dis
tant country and the people of Amerioa, among
which the suocessfat treaty between the.two coun
tries recently greeted through Mr. Reed, was
Speoftlly..dwelt Upon,:
The object of Mr. Welsh was to lay a foundation
fOribtroduoingan argument birlthe neoektity of our
me/shunts Sit ting themselves for the vest responsi
bilities which, are centering around them, The
honorable progress which bad been made ,y,our
merehhnts towards a higtielotaoral and religious
etendard Vitiate, 'the last thirty, peers was also
dwelt upon by the speaker. - remembered•that,
thirty years ago, the note of a man „was actually
regarded With less fiver' for hie conneotioi with
,religious .organisation. And the wee applied
to the .press of • our arty and laud. It, was
not unsafe to, say that More intelligenoe 'of a
religions character was contained in one dare'
Issue of our standar prose now than, thirty
:roars ago, would have , appeared in the oo
lames of our nesvapapers in three hundred days. I
In illustration of this probity of our merchants, a
graphic desoription was given of the trifling losses
sustained by our, banks oompared with the amouht
of their disetnnts: Ile bed taken pains to obtain
•fttote bearing on this pelist and bed learned fail'
in three of our principal banks, the discounts of
whit* had, in a given,period, amounted to thitie
hundred and iiinetylteven mlllionk, the entire lots
sustained by; theni nem non•msyntent had but
remelted. the emprtansaelY, insignifioant sum of
fifty-six Amelia% dollere.
The , bait speaker introduced to the audience
was Hon. Mayor Henry. Ha opened with a deli
sate tribute to the gentleman who had' preceded
hini, stating that ho had jest realised the truth of
a remark made by Bishop Potter on the same pla_k
form, on a former ocoasion t that papa coal(' aortal
present the elating of thie eeelety as the mernhant

obatitebre elosoklations of our country, and erpe-
Molly that the anniversary of which they had as
gambled to celebrate, The intimate relations 843- I
twined by this a:Misty to the integrity of the mer
chant were critiCally dwelt upon. There werP
