The regiment returned to the "City Guard " Armory, where a cold collation was served up to the men, prepared by the direction of the friends of the regiment ; at the close of which the men were but too happy to embrace their friends at home, and left without waiting for the after-dinner speeches.
Very unfortunately the Legislature practically prohibited the proper reception of this gallant command, by striking out the appropriation designed for such purposes.
After waiting until nearly noon for the promised escort, the regiment started to march up Broadway without one, but, when near Franklin Street, the long expectant column appeared, headed by Neyer's band.
A number of wounded officers, among whom were Captain Van Alst, and Lieutenant's Bowne, Buermeyer and Carter, with some twenty enlisted men, joined in this " Home from the War " parade.
After some little time spent in extending congratulations to the survivors, the NixTu was given the post of honor in the column, and the march continued up Broadway, to Bond Street, to the Bowery, to Fourteenth Street, to Broadway,

and thence to the Armory of the City Guard (Company C, of the NINTH), which had been tendered the Veterans as Headquarters until the regiment was mustered out
A bountiful collation was found ready spread for the refreshment of the guests, and every one present did ample justice to the feast. As the eating and drinking progressed, the annoyance produced by the non-appearance of the escort at the proper time passed from the minds of the NINTH, and, before the feast ended, hearty cheers were given for Company H of the Seventh, the City Guard, the ex-members, and all concerned in the reception.
.
While awaiting the final ceremony of muster-out the men were allowed to go to their homes, but required to report every day and answer to roll-call. Meanwhile their friends got up a reception in their honor, which was tendered on the evening of the 21st, at the St. Nicholas Hotel. Ex-Colonel Van Beuren presided at the table, and was ably supported by the Committee of Arrangements-Messrs. Fisher, Braine, Lanning, Draper and King. After discussing an elaborate bill of fare, speaking, singing, and social intercourse succeeded. Following is a poem, written in honor of the occasion, by Major J. Woodruff Lewis, and read at the banquet :
RETURN OF THE REGIMENT.
0 1.
Do you forget The crowd that met Three years ago-historic years ? Marching along. A patriot throng, Gath'ring with loud hurrahs and cheers ; The music of bands, The grasping of hands, The partings, freighted with hopes and fears, The waving of scarfs, and love's bright tears, While under the flag each heart reveres. Gay as the day, In sunny Broadway, Our gallant boys went marching along- "Off to the war "-one thousand strong.

II. We then all thought, That e'er we fought One-third three years the war would end, One battle's rush, We thought, would crush It out and send us home again ! 'Twas not to be, For " Strategy" Just then was " chief, " and to extend
His lines remote and there defend,
He'd march twice 'round to gain the end ! Putting a cordon 'Round the rebel Jordan, Was mere child's play for old Strategy, then, In the days we numbered a thousand men !
III.
Ah nevermore Upon Time's shore, . Will march that thousand strong in life ! The gallant few To-night with you, Speak silently of deadly strife, Of Southern sun, Of battles won, Where, next the foe, our banners stream- Symbols of Hope for Freedom's realm-
As God's avenging lightnings gleam ! "Charge " -- from throat And bugle note- Hushed the breath and fix'd the eye- " Forward," to death or victory.
IV.
Where muskets' flash, And cannon's crash,
Made grimmest music sink and swell. Nor could arrest Our boys who prest
Through withering storms of shot and shell, And clashing steel And peal on peal, That smites, and shrills, and shrieks a knell, While files closed up, as comrades fell,
Midst sighs and groans, and wild farewell, On through breath Of cannon's death, Through " white, infernal powder cloud "- . A warp and woof for battle-shroud,

We turn his flanks, His shattered ranks Refuse to rally-begin to yield, And swooping past His batterie's blast, We storm his works and sweep the field. The battle's won- The day our own- The musketry dies slowly out ; Our Horse pursue the flying few, And ends the day by total rout. Night follows day, Tears, victory ! In one such hour of deadly strife Compress ten years of peaceful life.
VI. Green on the wall Of memory's hall Twine garlands of myrtle and laurel for those Pass'd through the pale door Of bright evermore, For they fell as they fought-each face to the foe's. Silent the drum, And rusty the sword. But down History's aisles, in the future appears. Names-looking dim thro' the mist of our tears,- Yet glowing as martyrs' immortal with years. In silence the glass To their memory pass ; Another-a bumper-and with it a cheer -- Let us give to the battle-scarred veterans here !
The principal muster-out took place on June 23d, Captain Henry A. Ellis, Seventeenth U. S. Inf., being the mustering officer. By this time a number of officers and enlisted men, who had been absent,-wounded, sick, or on detached service, -had joined the regiment, which, together with the Battery, --- Company K-the NINTH, with pardonable pride, still claiming that as part of the regiment,-raised the number finally mus- tered out to two hundred and fifty-four. The companies were not all mustered-out at the same time, however, the origi- nal members of the Battery were mustered out on the 20th,
