THE BANQUET . Soon after six o'clock the brethren retired to the new hall , in which the banquet was to take place , and great was their astonishment on viowing the splendid apartment that had been provided for them . A description of this hall has already appeared in the FEEESIASONS' MAGAZINE . The tables were

elegantly set out , and the floral decorations were of a very beautiful description . The gallery was graced by a large body of ladies , but , as this part of the building is at a considerable elevation , they were rather indistinctly seen from the lower part of the hall . There were three longitudinal tables , with a long cross table for the Grand Master and the principal officers and

visitors , and the whole were fully occupied . The hill of fare was very ample , and Bro . Charles Gosden , the indefatigable manager of tho Tavern , appeared determined that nothing should be wanting on his part to make the inauguration of the new hall a great success , and from what we saw we believe that object was fully accomplished .
