When the announce -ment was first made, it was stated that the presentation of the medals would take the form of a public ceremony, at which the modest heroes would be congratulated on their prowess, which was all the more worthy of being commended because it lacked the slightest suspicion of being actuated by any thing like self-interest or self-glorification, That decision was the more to be appre- clated because it was in direct contra-dle tinction to the usual hole-and-commer mathod of handing out a Belilios Imitation of "The Merry Widows"-hat through the medium of a police officer, whose duty consisted of handing over the circular trophy and receiv ing a receipt in exchange, When the last batch of medallists came to receive their. decorations, the presentation ceremony took place in the Legislative Council chamber, His Excellency the Governor performing thegracious and pleasant duty of making glad the hearts of the thy recipients.
