political distinction which, has been conferred upon

We'welcome you, sir, although personally a stran

ho did so wiih the greatest sincerity* that from" no"

those which had just been pronounced in their names,
Imvo proceeded, which would have given them a
greater value in his estimation, or for which he could

Tho Kentucky Gazette, from jwhich wc gather the
above account, says:—“As the cortege approached tho
city tho. crowd increased, every tenement pourd forth
its inhabitants, every prominent point wasoccu’picdby
spectators. Along the roads were gathered groups of
ladies and gentlemen, tho windows along the streets
through which the procession passed, were tilled with
ladies; waving their snowy handkerchiefs, and almost
every countenance in,the vast crowds which thronged
tho streets, beamed with pleasure. Uport his arrival
on the ground he found Co). 11. M. Johnson waiting
for him in the cimago which boro him to the city 5
arid, immediately after his arrival Mr. Clay called up
on him, renewed his invitation, and claimed the per
