Excerpt from Oration on the Life and Character of Henry Winter Davis The hall of the House was filled by a distinguished audience to listen to the oration. Before eleven o'clock the galleries were crowded in every part. The ¿ags above the Speaker's desk were draped in black, and other insignia of mourning were exhibited. An excellent portrait of the late Hon. Henry winter davis was visible through the folds of the national banner above the Speaker's chair. As on the occasion of the oration on President lincoln by Hon. George bancroft, the Marine band occupied the ante-room of the reporters' gallery, and discoursed appropn'ate music.
