Meeting of th Veterans of 1S13.
A meeting of the veteran soldiers of tho war
of 1812 was hold this moraine In the Supreme
Court room, to celsbrate Washington's Birta-,
day. The attendance was large, and the pro
ceedings very interesting.
Alderman Peter Hay presided, and John H.
FrickjEsq., acted as Secretary. 1
Colonel John Thompson submitted the report
of the Executive Committee. The report reads
as follows:
The Executive Committee respectfully report: In
the brief penod that has elapsod since our mooting
on the 8th of January, bat little has oocured relating
to the business matters ot this Association requiring
special notice, several applications have boeu made
to the Exooutive Uommlttue by o d solders tor aid;
but as this is not a beueflc.al society, and possesses
no lunds beyond thosolueoensary to meetjthe contin
gent expenses, we have been unable, except in one
or two oases, to afford them relief.
Bow far it may be ejtpediont to provide a limited
fund for snob purposes is submitted to the Judgment
of the Association. We ire gratified to learn from
the publio prints that a disposition is manifested, at
this late oav, by some of the Kepresontatives in Con
Kress to recognize. In a substantial manner, tne
aervloes of the poor old soldiers of the seoond war of
independence We invite the attention of the Asso
ciation to this matter.
binoe our last nice tin several valuable membors
have been removed by death. Among the number
are Colonel Thomas Mellon, one of our noit re
spected citizens, who served as a volunteer under
Oeneral Jackson in evry battle near New Orleans,
In 18)6. .Vincent (Sleeper, Daniot Orwin, an old and
esteemed citizen, and, while health peruuttod. an
active merutxT of our association. Ihe effioient
Chairman of our Executive committee, Captain
George Emerlok, has, lor many months, been pros
i trated by a dangerous disase, but within the lt day
or two somewhat tavorable indications encourage
the hope that hie lile may ytt be prolonged.
In conoluuion, tho Committee cannot retrain from
congratulating the Association on tho disposition,
almost everywhere niai.Uestou, to bury in oblivion
the animonitfea which have so loutt o-tt ranged the
people ot diilerent seotions lrom eaoh other, and
which culmiua ed in a bloody war; t resum, in
food faith, thttir constitutional relations without any
unnecessary delay ; to move forward, as ru'-mliorti of
the irlonous Union constructed by the Fathers of the
devolution, in a career ofti'iexaaip ed prosperity, as
the exemplar and suppoit of reuub icaiimui. and the
foe of tyranny throughout the world. D.Udi-euoes of
opinion as to the best menu ot aoooiniilisunifr this
desirable end, doubties exirt among honest men;
but the result we regard as certain.
The following resolutions were then offered
by Colonel J. Ross Suo w den, on , behalt of the
Executive Committee: . . ..-
Resolved, That our thankful acknowledgments are
due to that aind Piovuience which permits so msny
ot the soldiers aud seamen of the war of 1813, and
the r sods, to unite in celebrating the return of an
other anniversaiy ot the birthday of the Father of
bis Country M ' '
Jttmtved, That in tbis day on thoughts turn in an
auiimIkI mannar to the immortal nv-niory ot Waxu-

s the central figure in the war of the Kevolution, the
formation and adoption of the Constitution of the
United States, and the establishment of the civil and

Forever paBt the days of gloom,
The long, sad days of doubt and fear,
When woman, by her idle loom,
Heard the dread battle's uearing boom
With clasped hands and straining ear;
While each new hour the past pursues
With further threat of loss and pain,
Till the sick senses would refuse
To longer drink the bloody news
That told of sons and brothers slain.
The days of calm at length are won,
And, sitting thus, with folded hands, .
We talk ol great deeds greatly done,
While all the luture seems to run
A silvery tide o'er golden sands,
With pomp the votive sword and shield
The saviors of the land return;
And while new shrines to Peace we build,
On our great banner's azure field
Yet larger constellations bum 1
Who bore the flag who won the day ?
The young, proud manhood of the land,
Called from the forge and plough away,
They seized the weapons of the fray
With eager but untutored hand :
They swarmed o'er all the roads that led
To where the peril hottest burned
By night, by doy, their hurrying tread
Still Southward to the struggle sped,
Nor ever from their purpose turned.
Why tell bow long the contest hung,
Now crowned with hope and now depressed;
And how the varying balance swung,
Until, like pold in furnace flurg,
The truth erew stronger for the test?
Twas our own blood we had to meet;
'Twas with full peers our swords were crossed,
Till In the march, assault, retreat,
And in the school of stern deteat
We learned success at bloody cost.
Oh, comrades of the camp and deck !
All that is leit by pityioe r ate
Of those who bore through tire and wreck.
With sinewy arm and stubborn neck
liis fluff whose mrtu we ueieurute 1
Oh, men, whose names, forever bright
On history's eolden tablets eravea
By land, by sea who waged the tight,
What guerdon will you ask to night
f or service none, lor perns oravear .
The charging lins no more we see,
iso more we hear tne atn oi strne;
Nor under every greenwood tree,
Stretched in their lile's great agony,
Are those who wait the surgeon's knlte;
No more the dreaded stretchers drip,
The lolling ambulnnces groan;
No more, while all the senses slip,
We hear from tbe soon silent lip
The prayer for death as balm alone 1
And ye who, on the sea's blue breast,
Ana down the rivers ol the lana,
With clouds of thunder as a crest,
Where still your conquering prows were pressed,
War's liehtnines wielded in vour handl
Ye, too, released, no longer feel
The threat oi Daiue, storm, ana rocK .
Torpedoes grating on the keel, -While
tbe strained sides with broadsides reel
And turrets feel the dinting shock.
Joint Saviors of the Land i To-day .
What guerdon ask you of the laud?
No boon too greaf for you to pray
What can it give that could repay
The men we miss from our worn band ?
The men who lie is trench and swamp,
The dead who rock beneath the wave ,',
The brother-eouls of march and tamp,
liricht spirits each a shinies lamp,
Teaching our children to bo brave t
And thou Great Shadel! in whom was nursed
The getm and grandeur of our land
, , ' , V-
In pence, In war, in reverence first,
Who taught our infancy to burst .
Ihe tightening yoke Of Br'Um'a hand!
Tbou, too, from thv Celestial height t
Will oia the praver we make to-day '
"Homes lor the oripoled in the fl?ht,
And whit of Hip is left made bright
By all that gratitude can pay." i

Oh. wives and daughters of the land 1
To every trcntle.r impulse true,
To you wd raise the invoking hand,
Take pity on our stricken band,

More sweet than coo ol pairing birds

And power nnd beauty clotho her words
A West-wind tbrouzh tho heart's thrilled chords
When woman's voire for pity pleads.
To you I leave the soldiei's doom, '
Your glisteniug eves assure me right ;
Oh, think through many a niarht of Bloom,
Whin round you all was light and bloom,
And he preparing lor the tight,
The i-oldlcr bade his fancy roam
Far from the foe's battalions proud
From camps, and hot steeds' champing foam,
And londly on your breast at borne
Tho lorehead of his spirit bowed I
Tench those who toil In glided eeats,
With nodding plume and jewelled gown,
Boasting a pedigree that dates
Back to tbe men who swayed the fates
When Thou wert baft liner Britain's crown,
That ere the world a centur v swims
Through time thli poor, blue-coated host,
With brevet-raiik ot Rh'itterod limbs,
Will swell tbe fame in choral hymns
And be of pride the proudest boast!
Our cause was holy to tho beieht
Of holiest cause to manhood given;
For Peace and Liberty to smite,
And while the warm bloo I bounded brizht,
For these to die, if called by Heaven !
Tbe dead are cared for in tho clay
The grinning skull no laurel seeks;
But lor the wounded ot tho tray,
It is through my weak lips to-day
The Ordeb of the Legion speaks !
Ob, by the lemons of the Dead,
Whose ears even yet our love may reach
Whose souls iu fight or prison fled,
Now swarm in column overhead,
Winging with fire my faltering speech:
From stricken fields and ocean caves
I bear their voice and cry instead , .,
"Gazing upon our myriad grav. s,
Bo generous to th crippled braves
Who were the Comrades ot the Deal 1"
