If —tf. M2MI , A large and interesting meeting of the work Men and inhabitants of Catasatiqua, was held on Friday evening, Jan. :30th, on the occasion of presenting_to_SAmuEL-and JOHN THOMAS, each with one of Tobias's full jew eled Gold Watches, procured by the work ingmen of Crane Works, as a testimonial of their respect and regard. The meeting was called to order at 8 o' clock, Mr. Gwen Rice, was called to the cliair, Mr. Noah Davis, appointed Sec'ry. The Chairman stated the object of the meet ing,'-and that Mr. JOHN WILLIAMS. had been l'selucted by the Donors to make the presen- Oation which he did as follows : Mr. Samuel and John Thomas : to. ken of i t :;:ncet trona the workingmen of the Lehigh Crane Iron Works, to Samuel Thomas, (same to John 'fitomas,) for the superior skill and ability displayed . by him in the management of the Crane Iron mice, at Uatasauque, Pennsylvania." "Sve'st thou a man diligent in his busi a:,ss, he shall stand before Kings." Such triy friends is the inscription on eac h of th ese m ei ,;!mtoes, which the work ingmen, attached to the LOligh Crane Iron works, are, through toe about presenting {'cu. They are aware, you are still young in years, Inane of them have known you from your childhood, and now, that you have grown to inure mature age, and have the management of these Furnaces in your hands, they come forward with these testi monials to present you. They can say with pride, that you have both shown such shill in the management of . Furnaces, that those farther advanced in years and expe rience might well be proud 011. The Crane Furnaces have during your management, in an average length of time, made more Iron,(also taking into considera tion duality) than any other Furnaces in the United States, at the same time, and work with a regularity, unequalled in the history of Furnaces. Again, the men desire to acknowledge to have received such treatment at your hands, during your superintendence highly credi table to ,It . t . lu,.rheru any information has been re - quirea7Which of itself you were not bound to impart, you have always cheerful ly given it, at the same time keeping in view the interests of the Lehigh Crane Iron Company. These, are few of the rea sons that the workingmen, with a will as of one man, present you with these testimoni als—they do not for the future ask more at your hands than what has been received in the past. Your respective stations are ar duous and responsible and ofttimes require your utmost energy and decision,. they would not for a moment wish you to deviate from this path of duty. In conclusion, the workingmen of Crami Iron Works, think it but an act of justice, a sli ht testimonial of their respect for you, to present you with these. IVatcheS3. Accept them, with their best wish'es for your fu ture prosperity and happiness, and years hence, when those that iv here to night become separated, give one thought to this pleasent and happy meeting. Mr. SAmum. 'NomAs, replied as follows : 111 r. John Williams, and members of the coanninee GENII:F.3IEN : 0 & J SAEGER This is one of the proudest moments of my life. Language' fails, yes, words falter, when endeavoring to express myself. Wou blive presented me with a Gold Watch, beautiful in appearance and doubt less excellent in its operations. You say, it is presented by the workingmen of the Le high Crane Iron Works. Now, Gentle men of the comvittee, accept my thanks, and please convey the same to the working men at this establishment, and assure them, that though it is uttered in feeble language, it comes from a sincere heart. Please also assure them, that this token of their respect will be highly esteemed to the end of my life. I appreciate it the more, as it comes from those who have had every opportunity of knowing my capacity, deportment, and disposition. The majority of you are my senior in years, who well knew the in my boyhood and acquainted with my boyish experience, and have seen my growth in years, with the growth of these works.— And I may say that my skill and want of skill can not be unknown to them. It al witys gives me pleasure, everywhere to ac knowledge, that I hail from.the Crane Iron Works ; the owners of which are Gentle men a ho have no superiors on this or any other country, in that integrity of purpose and bt.nevolence of heart. Neither are the wet king men of thii establishment surpass. ed, either.in industry, sobriety, and benevo lence ; always ready to aid the sick and the needy; faith ful in the discharge of their arduous duties, and if you will allow the my vanity, I will challenge any other establish. ment in the country to produce before the world a more respectable class of men, they toil hard, support themselves and families respectable, and what they can spare after helping. the needy, they, as prudent men, 0 & J SAEGER O & J SAEGER O & .1 SAEGER. NEUTRAL IN POLITICS. save for sickness and old age. And above all, 1 am proud to say. that they are not in the habit of visiting Grogshops and other IoW places as spendthrifts do. You are aware, gentlemen, that in con ducting the business of any works, there will of necessity, arise an honest difference of opinion upon matters between the em ployer and the employed, though in real interest, they sail together in the same boat, in reality the interest_of ono is the interest of the other. lam happy to say that this difference of opinion, has never to any ex tent manifested itself at these works. And I would ask, why ! the answer is at hand, because the employer and theq!mployed arc always anxious to do as far as their judge ment went, what was perfectly just and kind towards each other. Gentlemen let us all cultivate this principle of right on both sides ; as long as we do this, though some honest difference of opinion may ex ist, that difference will soon give way to a harmony of action to the good of all. This, gentlemen shall be my taint. Your good and advancement, in Consistence with prop or regard to the interest of my employers, which line of conduct, I intend to pursue without wavering, to improper partially on either Side: You say, I tun ready to im part proper infOrmation when asked for. I have been taUght by a venerable father and and a hind and tender . mother, to be cour teous to all, everywhere, and in every sta tion of life. You desire ine not to forget the working men of Crane Iron Works of this present period. Never gentlemen. so long as my senses do not foil me, will I for. get them ; but as I behold the minute. hour, and diurnal revolutions indicated on the face of this watch, my heart will revolve with emotion, in reviving the transactions of this night; and when 1 am called to a final ac count, I will leave this memento to poster ity, to show them your regards for me. I will close by wishing, all assembled here this night, all the prosperity and happiness for you and your families, that this world can bestow ; and let us look to the great rule the universe for guidance through sstuous world. Again gentlemen, the thanks of a sincere heart. 11 . 1 r. Jolts THOMAS, replied as follows: 11r. John Williams of the committee, and my dear friends : It is a happy moment in a man's life, when he is called upon on an oc casion like the present, to return thanks to a kind and grateful people for a testimonial of their esteem. The position in which I am placed this evening, is to me a very gratifying one, from the fact that you,in presenting, me with this elegant watch, have shown, that you regard me as deserving of your love and respect. Many of you have known the from my childhood, and I will never forget the many kindnesses I experienced at your hands, during that, period of my life.— When in my school-boy days, and on that account necessarily absent from home for short periods of dine, I well remember, with what kind and heartfelt welcomes you ever greeted my return. Such kindness, shown to a child are never forgotten, they make so deep an impression on an youth fu I heart, that a long life of care and toil cannot erase. I have undoubtedly been guilty of many of the indiscretions and follies incident to youth, but you with n parental kindness have over looked all these faults, and now when I have arrived at more mature age, you come forward in the goodness of your hearts and prsent me with this beautiful memento. It isdoubly acceptable, from the fact, diet it. is not the result of any national party or sectarian feeling, many of. you are of the warm hearted and jovial sons of old Erin ; some hail from Scotland, others from Eng land, and others again, who like myself re cognize old Cambria as their mother coon. try. Some of you are from gay and sunny France, some from Germany, and there are some among you, who can proudly call themselves the sons of Columbia, and with justice hail their native land as the "Land of the free and the home of the brave:" In presenting me with this beautiful watch, you present me with a-fit and appro priate emblem of the flight of time, the mu'. tability of all things here, and one, that for cibly reminds us of the changes that are continually taking place around us. It seems but as yesterday, that I was a child among you and looked up to many of you as a child would look to its parent, many who were with us then, are now no more. In the few .short years that have elapsed, since these wet ks wore - established, many who are here assembled have been,called to mourn the death anent' and dear relations and friends, others haVe been culled upon to bid farewell to kind rind much loved friends, who have separated from us and settled'in various parts of this vast conti nent ; many who were then in the summer of life, now show by their furrowed cheeks and silvered locks, that they are in their autumn and are slowly yet surely approach ing their winter. We, who were then chil dren, have now arrived at more mature ago and have just taken our stand on 'the plat form of life, NUMBE R 21. May God give us strength to face allthe dancers and difficulties, which we may en , counter with the skill and courage of those who have gone before us, and in future wirS, if God spares my life, when my head becomes heavy and silvered o'er with age, how often when I look at this beautiful me- Monte, will my thoughts wont back with pleasure to the happy time, I received it at the hands of the kind and grateful work• ing men of Lehigh Crane Iron Work. To say I feel proud of this expression of your kindness, would but partly express my feel ings ; were Ito attempt it, my tongue would fail in giving expression to the sentiment of gratitude, my heart is fain to utter. You have complimented me on skill and ability with which I have assisted in super intending these works ; much is due to the teachings of a kind and indulgent Father, who for many years has toiled and ctrug gled with.the tbillculties of life, that we, his children might profit by his experience, much is due to you also, for the willingness, and alacrity. you have ever displayed in performing those duties entailed upon you. You have also complimented me on the kind disposition I have ever manifested towards , you. Thanks be to a fond mother who has ever impressed upon me the necessity of displaying a kind and COUrtIOUS demeanor towards all, with whom I may be brought in contact, and while I at all times feel it in cumbent upon me to treat you rill kindly and affectionately, yet dillerences of opinion will in establishments of this kind, occasionally arise between the employers and those em ployed. In such instances I feel it impera tive upon me, from the responsible situa tion in which I am placed, as well as the confidence reposed in me by the very hon amble 2entlemen who compose the Lehigh Crane Iron Company, to removed these .dif fereaces, as far as compatible with .the in terests.of the company and sterling integri ty in the discharge of try duty. I have, at all times endeavored to act justly and impartially if I have wronged any person, it has been au error of the head and not of the heart and that God may bless you all and grant . you long life, health, and prosperity in every situation of life in which yeti May be placed; is my humble and sincere prayer. On motion it was Rese/ved.—That the proceedings of this meeting and the Addresses be published in the "Lehigh Register:" The meeting then adjourned to partake, of a collation, which had been provided foi the occasion. OWEN RICE, Chairman. NOAII DAVIS, Seerdary. The Confined Witness. Severals years ago, when one ofour pres ent Justices of the Superior Court was Dis rict Attorney of a neighboring county rath er a lau:•hable incident occurred, as related. by himself. Court weeks ho used to occu py a bedroom at Colonel Lewis's who kept the principle hotel at the county seat. Ho had his indictments—and in important ea ! see he used to direct the sheriff to bring up the people's witnesses for preliminary ex amination. It happened at one court that ho hod an important murder case coming on. The celebrated Gen. (now Judge) Nye, was counsel for defendant. Ho examined the, witnesses as usual, and took careful min utes 01 What they would state on the stand. He found that a lady was the most imponr, tart witness for the people, and ho also discovered that she was rather exciteablo and high strung, end a fast talker. Apprehensive of trouble he thought he'd, caution her a little. So he told her when she came on to the stand not to talk, "Pay attention," says the district attorney, "to my questions and answer them, but don't tali.. And when Nye comes to examine,. yen . must be very careful and not get excited, for he's a great blackguard and will, try to. get you mad. Just pay attention to hie : questions and ansWer them,no matter how, apparently silly, but don't allow hint to get you off your balance." The District Attorney and witness then 4 „ parted for the night. The next day the'" case came on. The District Attorney cal• led his witness, and she went through with, her evidence, on the part of the people to his perfect admiration, and handed her over to Nye. He went along awhile vory, smoothly. Pretty soon she began to illaro up ;" he crowed the more, and very soon . they had up a regular breeze. • Finally le r singall self control she broke out as follows f "I won't answer any more of your con temptible questions ; you are a nasty, dirty , blackguard, and the District Attorney told mo so !" After the laugh partlall,y subsided, Nye says— ""What, the District Attorney told you so !" When and where•dld he tell you to 1" ttlle told me so last night up in Gen. Low is's bed room !" The scene which followed this answer may be readily imagined. In the midst of the shout Nve (old' the witness sho might paps."—N..Y. Spirit of the Timea.
