The Government Judges of Premiums, and Marshals, having breakfasted with their President, proceeded at an early hour to the Washington Gardens, where the examination of the articles presented, was finished, and the awards made. The President then announced, that Judges had awarded the Medal, of the value of twelve dollars, to Messrs. Fearing and Emerson, harness makers, of this town, for the best specimen of an entire Chaise Harness, silver plated, and entirely of American workmanship. The second premium of six dollars, was also awarded to these gentlemen. That a Medal, of the value of twelve dollars, was awarded to Mr. Thomas Burdle, of Boston, for the best made six-pannelled door; and that the premium of six dollars was awarded to Henry Chulbrick, for the next best. That a Medal, of the value of twelve dollars, was awarded to Mr. Addison Bacon, Hanover-street, for the best made pair of Chaise Wheels; and that a premium of six dollars was awarded to Mr. Oliver Ames, of Norton, for the next best. That a Medal, of the value of eight dollars, was awarded to Wm. Jordan, (an apprentice of Mr. Daniel Adams) for the best made Ship Block, with two sheeves; and that the premium of four dollars was awarded to John B. Ingolls, (an apprentice of Messrs. Dupee and Badger) for the next best. That a Medal, of the value of six dollars, was awarded to Peter Albern of Boston, (an apprentice of Mr. David Peeler) for the best made pair of Half Boots; and the premium of three dollars to Samuel B. Pope, (an apprentice to his father, in Quincy) for the second best made pair. John J. Bickner, an apprentice of Attleborough, presented a Barrel, for which no premiums has been offered this year; and the government, in consequence of the expense he had incurred by the mistake, directed the Treasurer to present him with the sum of seven dollars and seventy-five cents. The medals and premiums, were now delivered. The articles exhibited, were mostly of excellent workmanship, and it was only regretted that the specimens were not more numerous, and which we trust they will be, should the premiums be repeated.
