[As a part of the preliminary exercises, the following Dirge composed for the occasion by the distinguished American poet, Ai. Fked B. Street, Esq. , of Albany, was sung by the Choir, in a very solemn and pathetic manner, to the venerable tune of 'Old Hundred. '] A shade like night, is o'er us flung; Our Eagle's wing in grief is hung; Our brightest star the sky hath cross'd! [ts lordliest plume that wing hath lost.
But though the orb hath left our eyes, Ft but glides on to future skies; And mem...ory of the plume will bring New strength to lift that spreading wing.
His stately form in death is laid ; But his proud glory ne'er shall fade. On Time's last wave, no brighter fame Shall glow than that of WEBSTER'S name.
ORATION.
The tolling bells of twice ten thousand stee- ples, proclaim that we have met with no ordinary loss. Populous and opulent cities, thousands of miles from each other, celebrate these obsequies with all that can engage the imagination, and impress the heart. Even in a retired village, which makes no pretensions to parade, and where there is nothing of magnificence, save the sombre pomp of nature herself, the citizens of Ballston Spa, without distinction of party ; the Board of Supervisors representing every town in the County of Saratoga ; the members of the Ballston Institute, coming from different sections of the State ; the students of the Na- tional Law School, representing more than half the States of the Union ; have assembled under these sable hangings, to join in the sublime lament which is now being sung by the nation.
