On Tuesday evening a number of personal friends of Sergeant G. SALVATORI, met at Sinnott’s Town Hall Hotel, Oxford Street Paddington, for the purpose of giving the departing soldier a fitting send-off. Sergeant SALVATORI, who is connected with the Army Service Corps, is proceeding to the seat of war attached to the Army Medical Corps. During the evening the departing soldier was made the recipient of a gold medal suitably inscribed, for which he returned thanks in a few suitable words. Several songs, &c., greatly enlivened the proceedings.
