His BIrtU-day Duly Celebrated In Dccatur. The one hundred and twenty-sixtl birthday of Scotia's immortal bare was celebrated'in an appropriate and becoming manner by the "oannie Scots" of this city and vicinity last evening. Steps were taken a days siace, looking to the organization of a 8t.

Andrew's society or Caledonian club in Decatnr. but tbe object of tbis ambition had not been reached in time for a society celebration. But the Scotchmen and de- scendante of Scots, residing in this city and county, "impromptned" a splendid entertainment at the New Doming Hotel, the programme of whioh embraced a splendid supper, an appropriate address, the singing of Scotch songs, toasts, music, dancing, etc. At a little after eight festal board was surrounded by some eighty personst-principally Scotch- men and their families--who did learty justice to a splendid sapper of substantial and fancy edibles, with Scotch" accompaniment on the tumbleronicon After the cloth was removed Mr. Robertson offered the toast, "Robert Burns," which was briefly responded to byE.

W. Anderson. The address, appropriate to the occasion, as laid down on the programme was then de ivered by David Hutchison, and was well-timed, well-chosen and well de- ivered. Then came the singing of Scotch songs, as given in the REVIEW of Sunday morning, with several additions iod encores, while the intervening 'ructions of hours were chased with lying feet to music by Prof Leonard --the dances being peculiarly and characteristically Scottish, although jarticipated in by a few visitors of other nationalities.

We have often thought the Ger- uaus had a sort of patent on the en- social life, or at least that knew better how to make the most of it than almost any other na- ion, but after witnessing the una- iulteratea bliss of last evening, by hese who trace their genealogy to he land of the thistle and of Bjbbie 3uros, we are constrained to think hat. our Tewtonio frienrla had better ook to their laurels.
