THE PRESENTATION.—Quite a number of citizens and friends of the men of Regan's Battery gathered at People's Hall, on Saturday evening, to witness the presentation of a flag to the battery. The presentation speech was made by David A. Scott, Esq., and appropriately responded to by Captain Regan. After which the company present—or such as chose--spent the evening in a social dance. The whole affair passed off in fine style, and reflected credit upon the gentleman instrumental in getting it up--Mr. John Hanmore.
