Splendid Demonstration.
COLONEL HALPIN'S POEM.
The Meeting' at the Academy.
7 The demonstration, this morning, at the
" Academy of Music, by the Military Order
of the Loyal Legion, was an imposing "one.
The house was crowded with an en
• thusiastic audience, the parquet be
' occupied by various military
orgafdzations, amongst which the First City
• Troop and National Guardwere . cOnspica
-nus. The stage was handsomely and appro
priately decorated, and two brass field
pieces flanked the speaker's stand. A large
number of officers of the Army, Navy and
Marine Corps in full uniform, occupied the
stage.
The exercises were commenced by an ap
propriate prayer by Bishop- Simpson, after
which the orator of the day was introduced
and delivered an eloquent address. The
marked feature of the occasion was the
poem by . Lient. Col. Halpine, which he de
livered with a clear voice and graceful man
ner, and which was received with enthu
siastic applause. The following is the
poem :
LINES FOR THE DAY.
, Delivered at the Academy of Music,
Philadelphia, February 22, 1366, by
Colonel C. G. Halpine, at the Fes
tival given by the , Military Order. of
the Loyal Legion in • Honor of Wash
ington's Birthday-the Proceeds, Being
• Devoted to Found a Home for the Dis
abled Soldiers and Sailors of the Re
• cent War.
. Forever past the days of glootn,
The long, sad days of doubt and fear,
When woman, by her idle loom,
Heard the dread battle's nearing 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 of great deeds greatly done,
While all the future seems to run
A silvery tide o'er golden sands.
With pomp the votive sword and shield
The saviours of the land return;
And while new shrines to Peace we build,
On our great banner's azure field
Yet larger constellations burn!
;Who bore the flag—who won the day?
The young, proud manhood of the land,
Called from the forge and plow 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 day, theft hurrying tread
.Still Southward to the struggle sped,
• • Nor ever from their purpose turned.
Why tell how long the contest hung,
Now crowned with hope and .now de
pressed;
And how the varying balance swung,
Until, like gold in furnace flung,
The truth grew 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 defeat
We learned success at bloody cost.
Oh, comrades of the camp and deck,
All that is left by pitying. Fate
Of those who bore through fire and wreck,
With sinewy arm and stubborn neck
His flag whose Birth we celebrate!
Oh, Men, whose names, forever bright
On history's golden tablets graved—
By land; by sea who waged the fight,
What gaerdon will you ask to night
For service done, for perils braved?
The charginglines no more we see,
s No more we hear the din of strife;
Nor_under every greenwood tree,
Stretched in their life's great agony,
Are those who wait the surgeon's knife;
NO more the dreaded stretchers - drip,
The jolting ambulances groan;
No more, while all the senses slip,
We hear from the soon silent lip
The prayer for death as balm alone !
And ye who, on the sea's blue breast,
And down the rivers of the land,
With clouds of thunder as a crest,
•Where still your conquering prows were
pressed,
War's lightnings wielded in your hand!
Ye, too, released, no longer feel
The threat of battle,
store and rock—
'Torpedoes grating on the keel,
While the strained sides with broadsides
reel
And turrets feel the dinting shock.
Joint Saviours of the Land! To day
What guerdon ask you of the land?
No boon too great for you to pray—
What can it give that could repay
The men we miss from our worn band?
The men who lie in trench and swamp,
The dead who rock beneath the wave—
The brother-souls of march and camp,
Bright spirits—each a shining lamp
Teaching our children to be brave!
And thou—Great Shade ! in whom was
nursed
The germ and grandeur of our-land--
In peace, in war, in reverence first,
Who taught our infancy to burst
The tightening yoke of Britain's hand!
Thou, too, from thy celestial height
Will join the-pr . ayer we make to-day—
" Homes for the crippled in the fight,
And what of life is left, made bright
By all that gratitude can pay.'
Teadh these who 101 l in gilded seats,
With nodding plume' and jeweled gown,
Boasting a pedigree that dates
Back to the mcn who swayed the fates
When thou wart battling:Britain's crown,
That ere the iPorld a century swims
Through time—this poor, blue-coated host,
With brevet-rank of shattered limb's,
Will:swell the fame in choral hymns
And be of pride the proudest boast!
Homes for the men we ask, implore;
The brave who limbs and vigor gave,
That North and South, from shore to shore,
' One free, rich, boundless country o'er,
• The flag of WASHINGTON should wave!
The flag that first—theday recall— do .
Long years ago, one summer morn,
Flashed up o'er Independence Hall,
A meteor-messenger to all,
- That a new Nation here was born!
Oh, wives and daughters of the land!.:
To every gentler impulse true,
To you we raise'the invoking hand,
Take .nity on our stricken band,
These bemi-gods disguised in Blue!
More sweet than coo ofpairing birds -
Your voice when urging gentle deeds,
And nowor-and beauty clothe her wora-.
A -West-wind through the heart's thrilled
chords
When woman's, voice for-pity pleads.
To you I leave the soldier's dOom,

Oh, think through many nights of gloom,
When round you all was light and bloom,

From Washington.
!special Despatch to the Bulletin.)
WASHINGTON Feb. 22.—The presidents
of six leading banks of New York city are
here to confer with Secretary McCulloch
respecting the'decision of Gen. Spinner,who
claims the right to tali the daily gross re
ceipts of the banks, without allowing pay
ments to be deducted.
They maintain that the Banks cannot
stand such a tax, and that the payments
shOuld in all cases be' educted.
There is no truth 'in thesstatement that
another Freedmen's bill is being prepared
which will meet the views of the Presi
dent._ The.provisions ,of the present bill
will probably be extended one year.
The memorial ceremonies on the life and
character of Henry Winter Davis attracted
an.immense audience' at the "House to-day.
Grover's thealra is- jammed with people
listening to speeches of Senators and mem
bers of Congress and, others, who sustain
the President in his poling.
[Correspondence of the Associated Press.]
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—A-large political
meeting is in progress at . Grovei's Theatre
in favor of the President's policy.
The National Monument Society held their
anniversary to-day. President Johnson
presided and made a few remarks, alluding
to Washington's Farewell Address as
containing the principles by which he
sought to be guided, and expressing the
hope that all the States would continue
their contributions to the structure, to be
completed as an enduring memorial to the
restoration of all the States to their proper
relations to the General Governnient.
Memorial Services in Honor of Henry
Winter Davis.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—Before eleven
o'clock, the galleries of the House were
crowded in anticipation of the memorial
services in honor of the memory of the late
Hon. Henry Winter Davis. The flags
above the Speaker's desk were draped in
black and other insignia of mourning were
exhibited.
A tine portrait of the honored dead peered
through the folds of the national banner
above the Speaker's desk. The Marine
band, during the hour preceding the open
ing of the exercises, occupied the ante-room
Of the reporter's gallery and furnished ap
propriate music.
At 12 o'clock the Senators and the Judges
of the Supreme Court entered, preceded by
Chief Justice Chase, and many officers of
the army and others followed. The Presi.-
dent is not present, but Secretary Stanton
and Secretary McCulloch entered the nail
before the opening exercises. Senor Ro
mero,,the Mexican Minister, Governor Fen
ton, of New York, and Judge Advocate
General Holt, are among the dignitaries
represented.
After a prayer by the Chaplain, the Decla
ration of Independence was read by Hon.
Edward McPherson, Clerk of the House.
-After reading of the Declaration, fol
lowed by the playing of a dirge by the band,
Hon. Schuyler Colfax; Speaker of the House
of Representatives, rose and said :--
Ladies and Gentlemen—The duty has been
devolved upon me of introducing to you the
friend and fellow-member here of Henry
Winter Davis, and I will detain you bat a
moment from his,address, to which you wil,
listen with saddened interest.
The world always appreciates and honors
courage—the courage of Christianity which
sustained martyrs in the amphitheatre, at
the stake, and on the rack—the courage of
patriotism, which inspired millions in oar
own lands to realize, the history fable of
Curtins, and to fill up with their own
bodies, if need be, the yawning chasm
which imperiled I the Republic—
the courage of humanity, which is wit-'
nessed in the pest-house and the hospital,
at the death-bed of the homeless, and in
the prison cell of the convict. But there
is a courage of a statesman besides, and
nobly was it illustrated by the statesman
whose services are commemorated to-day.
Inflexibly hostile to oppression, whether
of the slave on American soil, or
Republicans struggling in Mexico,
against monarchical invasion. Faithful
always to principle and to liberty, cham
pioning always the cause of the downtrod
den, fearless ;as he was eloquent in his
avowals, he was mourned throughout a
continent, and from the Patapsco to the
Gulf, the blessings of those who had been
ready to perish followed him to his tomb.
It is fitting, therefore, though dying
a private citizen, that the nation
should render him such marked and unu
sual honors in this hall—the scene of so
many of his intellectual triumphs ; and I
have great pleasure in introducing to you,
as the orator of the day, Hon. J. A. J. Cress
well, his colleague in the Thirty-eighth
Congress, and now Senator from the State
of Maryland.
The Maine Legislature.
AUGUSTA, Maine, February 22d. The
Legislature of the State has passed a bil,
relating to hawkers and pedlars, which
permits citizens of other States to sel t
goods by samples by taking out a license,
putting them on the same footing with citi
zens of Maine.
