The Board of Firema9ters and officers of visiting guests having assembled io front of the Charleston Hotel, Major Butec, the Prcsi flent of the Stonewall, mado tho following Dpening speech : Gentlemen- It was but natural on an occa Bion of this character that a spirited aud hon? orable rivalry should be evinced,.and to the best of their abihtv, all who participated have nobly done their' duty. One- question has. arisen, and one only, in the exercises of the day. I refer to the animated contest between the two hook and ladder companies of the city. "Both have done so admirably and performed so well, that it bas been impossible to deter? mine which is entitled to the award offered for proficiency and skill. In rapidity of movem 3nt and excellence of practice, neither bas excelled the other. In their case, therefore, no de? cision has been made, and both have won and are entitled to wea*- the same laurels. As to the other companies, all bava nobly done their duty; and the representatives of those who have achieved the greatest success stand before yon. We have the honor of pre? senting to yon, Mr. President S. Y. Tupper, of the Vigilant, and Mr. President Edwin willis, of the iEtna, of our own city, likewise ono who represents the glorious palmetto standard of Columbia; and finally the chief of one of the visiting companies from our sister Ciiy of Au? gusta, the fine physique and noble bearing of whose members fitly typify their great State, and recall the memories of a great historic past. Mr. George H. Walter, one of the judges, then spoke as folio Wi?: ? Gentlemen-Thc pleasing duty has devolved upon me of presenting these testimonials of the promptness and-skill, which have distin? guished you this day. Upon the previous anniversary, the test of merit was determined chiefly by the excellenco of your machinery; to? day, the test has been made of menandmue clr, and the prizes awarded are to those who have shown tho greatest proficiency in running a given number of yards, preparing their appa? ratus for use, and throwing water a certnin distance in the shortest time. After a generous rivalry in which you have displayed an ability and energy which have never been excelled in Charleston, yon, gentle men of the Vigilant and .?Etna, havo been pro? nounced the victors in your respective depart? ments, and it becomes me not only to congrat ula te you upon your success, but to transfer to your keeping these mementoes of the occa? sion. I know that you will preserve them with honor untarnished, and that they will stimu? late yon still further to reflect credit upon the organization of which you are justly a pride and ornament. I congratulate you not merely for what you have achieved, but because, in common with your .brethren, yon have thrown a lustre around the Fire Department of Charles? ton which ia undimmed by a single stain. "While in some other communities such an occa? sion as this would have been a signal for disor? der, here you have exhibited a decorum, and an obedience to the requirements of the day, creditable to your manhood both as firemen and as citizens. Your wives and sisters have welcomed you with their presence, and amid all the earnest rivalries of the day, they hava looked in vam for one breach of that high toned courtesy and gallant Dearin? which Lave made you the boast of our community. Preserve thi? honorable record, and remem? ber that while yon remain thus united in good "WjrkB, whether it be upon a holiday pageant like the presentone, or in conquering the des? troying element, you are none the less the joy? ful hppe of those whose dependence is upon your strong arms and stout hearts for their defence. Accept, theo, these trophies of victory. Lot them be an additional incentive to you to excel iu-we? ,<k>i..t? .wte-awwvu.. _-?> name which for so many years you have honor Ably borne. With them take also my own congratulations upon your splendid achieve? ments to-day, and the earnest wish that each returning anniversary may bring its reward for equal efficiency and snectss. With his usual impromptu neatness, Mr. President Tupper responded as follows: . Gentlemen-In behalf of the Vigilant Fire Company, I tender to you their grateful ac? knowledgments, not alone for the prize itself, valuable as it is, but for the generous and handsome sentiments which accompanied its presentation. We receive it in the sam? spirit, and shall endeavor to perpetuate a record, in which this has become, as it were, another tribute to endeavors to do our duty as firemen and as citizens. Much as we prize thia memento, we esteem it still more from the fact that it is presented by one who in years gone by was identified with and aided ns in our honorable rivalry for the posts of honor in the Fire Department. It cornea, therefore, from one who, by reason of old'associations, well knows how peculiar!v welcome is this token from his hands. We shall treasure it ; treasure it not only as an evidence of what has been accomplished by the Vigilants in a contest where the attrition has been sharp and almost fierce, but because lt is an assurance to our fathers who founded -?fce. company, that their sons inherit the vir? tues of the Old Stock, with sinews that are strong, hearts that are true, and hopes that run high. And I pledge L ot too much when I tty that fifty years hence they will still stand faithful in duty and honest m its discharge to the people of our home-our native City of Charleston. [Three cheers.] President E. Willis responded for the iE cn a : Gentlemen-My friend has said all that need be said to express the pride and gratification which we experience in common with himself in receiving this emblem of success. We have sought to deserve it, and thanks to skill and ability, we have won it. We aro workingmen representatives of that great community who earn their daily oread by the sweat ot their brow, and ours is not the gift of speech. Nevertheless we can feel and appreciate such an occasion and euch ? moment, and I know that I express unutterable gratitude when I simply say, "Thank you." At tho same timo we pledge ourselves to this community to do all that becomes men, in fulfilling our obliga? tions as citizens and as members of the Charleston Fire Department. [Cheers.! Mr. Walter, then turning to the representa? tives of the Columbia and Augusta companies, each of which had won a prize, spoke as fol? lows : Gentlemen-Ia behalf of the citizens of Charleston and the Board of Firemasters, I thank you for the handsome manner in which Sa have contributed to the display which we ve witnessed on this occasion. Amid the gloom and disappointment which for years have surrounded us, we revert to these anniversaries as *o so many green spot3 in the memory of the past, and your presence to-day baa brightened and freshened the recollections that cluster around them. Like your brethren or Charleston, you are engaged in a noble cause ; your mission is to sive, and not to de? stroy. The brow of the warrior may - encir? cled by laurel, but you too have a noble reward in the gratitude of the community, who feel that in -y?5? exertions their firesides are protected, and their households are safe. By such tie? as these it is, that althongh yon are members ot dist?nt communities, you are still united ina common brotherhood. In the name of that brotherhood, I present you with these testimonials. Bear them to your homes as eviden es of the kind regard we entertain for you, and of the victories you have this aay achieved. Captain Adams, of the Georgia Incependent, and vice-President. Sbielis, of the Palmetto, of Columbia, gracefully acknowledged the com? pliment, and with a round of cheers, the pleas sing ceremonial ended. The Vigilants mounted their time-honored President in arms, and bore him on his way rejoicing, and the several detachments of fire? men prcs3Dt, repaired to the rendezvous, anl with their guests, took up the line of march homeward. The Stonewalls acted as an escort to the Vigilants, and the Winyah company in turn was escorted r y both. Halting for a few mo? ments in front of the Vigilants quarters, Presi? dent Tapper addressed them as lollows : Gentlemen-li is my happiness jan this occa? sion to present you thia goblet-another ot the trophies whicb," in your pride and honor, you may add to your collection. Nobly havo you done your duty this dav; honorably have you f iriven to be firat, and gloriously bavo your efforts been crowned. It is no new thing to bring back here souvenirs of this kind; you have a bushel of them; but on each succeeding occasion they Bhonld prove a mile-stone in your career, to point you to fresh endeavors. I transfer it to my successor, your first vice President, L. D. Mowry, Esq. Aa most of you are aware I shall soou have occasion-and a most sorrowful one it will be-to resign thc office I huve s > long hold. Indeed, I probably appear to-day for the last time, while living, in your uniform ; but I desire to say here and now, that the associations I havo cujoyod during a connection of thirty-four years w ith the vig? ilant Fire Company, are a part of my being which cannot be severed; and when I am called to the repose of my forefathers, I deaire to go hence in that uniform, which, as it haa been dear to me in life, I would still have do me honor in the grave. Io aoine very pertinont remarks. Captain Tupper then extended the hospitalities of bia company to the Winyahs, of Georgetown, dur? ing their stay in Charleston, and plainly inti, mated to the "Stonewalls" that his latch string always hung out. A Pleasant Inciden t. Yesterday morning, between 8 and 9 o'clock^ the Phoenix boys marched to the house of the Marions, in Cannon-street, and carried with them a live fox, which had been captured in the burnt district by Messrs. C. Pennal and George Honour, of the Phoenix. President Tupper, of the Phoenix, presented it to tho Marions in tho following words : In behalf the Phoenix, I take great pleasure in preaenting to you, Mr. President, ono of the most unsociable animals that waa ever hunted and caught in the heart of a city, and I beg that he may receive a kindly welcome from those whose association bsars the name of the noble old Swamp Fox, Marion. The vagrant habits of this cunning and in? quisitive quadruped are not apt to commend him favorably to young firemen, who are sel? dom out after dark: but I feel assured that in your good keeping his wicked ways will be re? formed, and while your command possesses all of hisjwide-awake qualities, I trust he will imi? tate his masters, and become genial, and gen? erous, and brave. I thank the little artful wretch for bringing us together, and I know the good feeling which has always existed between the two companies will Become stronger from to-day, and that this will lead to many reunions, marked by the most cordial harmony and the kindest and most fraternal regard. President Barkley, in accepting the queer but welcome present, said : Afr. President and Brother Firemen oj the Phoenix-On behalf of the Marion Fire Engine Company, whom you have so highly honored in this profession of your friendship and sup? port, it becomes my pleasant duty to assure you of a reciprocal current from the company whom I represent. The gift we hail is as dearly welcome as it is appropriate; for if his great prototype possessed the qualities of the "fox," he was not at the same time devoid of those of the phoenix. We yield, Mr. President, a grate? ful acknowledgment of your kindness, and most gladly undertake to advance tnis revival of a pleasant and profitable association to a full and complete fruition. After the presentation a collation waa ser vt 1 in the yard of the Marion, of which the Phoenix and Marion boys partook. They th en escort? ed the Marions to the Citadel Green, where both compames took their places in the line. The Marions were also presented by Mr. E. D. Woodruff, Jr., of Philadelphia, with a series of ] engravings of scenes in the life of a fireman, a Bluffed fox, and a lot of bolts, equipments, ?c. Incidents and Accidents. Mr. E. D. Woodruff, Jr., of the Philadelphia Fire Association, had his place in the long line dressed in his fireman's uniform. While the engines wero getting ready the irum corps of tho United States army beat splendid tunes that enlivened the whole neigh? borhood. Mr. W. McLemoro, of tho Washington's of I Augusta, in trying to recover the suction of | his company, which- had fallen during tho run, slipped and injured his knee, though not Ber i Wbun the JEtna returned to their house, on motion of Secretary Nixson, the company gave three rousing cheers "for tho Gamo Cock of | Jueen-Btreet," displayed upon their hau? ler flung across the s trot.:. Yesterday morning, Mr. C. C. Wightman sresented his company, in behalf of Mr. Thoa. ?Yightman, artist, with a fine oil painting of nr. Wm. IL Gibson, one of the io un dei s and | ^residents of the .Etna. President Willis re? ceived the gift and returned thanks in appro? priate- terras. Mr. Wightman also presented ?the company a beautiful flag, of white and jlue silk, the handiwork of his wife. It was received with suitable remarks by Vice-Presi lent Nipson. The .Etnas last night had a jolly time at heir headquarters., entertaining the friends of | he visiting and other companies. At the Guardhouse, after the procession had leen reviewed by the Mayor and Aldermen, Ulberts, the caterer, served up a goodly lunch, 0 which justice was done by the Mayor and Lldermon and a few invited guests, including be Board of Firemaaters. Finis. So endeth the firemen's celebration for 1869. If anybody fears the midnight conflagration, et him remember that the hand engines of Charleston can ran twelve hundred yards and brow water into his bed chamber in two oinutes and thirteen seconds; that the steam ingines caa do the same distance and deluge lim in four minutes and a half; and that al hongh everything may be burning up down .fairs, the hook and ladder companies eon take lim out ol a four-story attic window in just wo minutes and eight seconds, in a manner vb ich will convey to his mind the pleasant illu? sion of being a personified streak of lightning.
