PHILADELPHIA,
JULY 8.
Yesterday afternoon, the President
of the United States arrived in
town from the Southward.
Orl Sunday, the *2d of June, departed
' this life, RICHARD HENRY LEE, at
his feat at Chantilly, in Weftmoreland
county, Virginia, \n the sixty-third year
of his age—a Philosopher, a Patriot, and
i Sage ; these characters he had supported
through his life—-at hi? death, they sup
ported him ; and he died as he had lived,
hleffing his country.
His public life Was diftinguilhed by
fame circumstances too remarkable to
be pafled over in giving an account of
his death.
He had the honor of originating the
firft refiftancc to Btitifh opprefllon, at
the time of the ftauip aft, in his own
countryi
He proposed in the Virginia Homfe
of BurgefTes, in 1773, the formation
of a Committee of Correspondence,
whose object was to difleminate a know
ledge of the People's wrong!, and to
kindle the flame of liberty throughout
the continent! 1
He firft ntade, and ably supported,
the motion for the Declaration of Inde
pendence, in the Congress of 1776.
Americans ! you cannot forget him ;
he devoted to you his earliest youth.
He died in confcquence of labors and
exertions in your fervict.
VOLUNTEER GREENS. [gs
■ - on
The encrealing military spirit of our
citizens on the alarming afpeft of public fu
affairs, has been noticed some time past; he
and particular mention has been made
of the intended edabliihment of a new of
troop of Light-Horfs in this city;— ro
this troop we have since had the plea- ei
sure of feeing completely organized and
equipped, and for the spirit, youth, and he
appearance of thd men, as well as the mi
size and beauty of the horses, we may
pronounce them, without flattery, as T
fine a corps of military cavalry as have
been feeu on this continent: they have nv
ftiled themfelvcs, " The Volunteer th
Greens." and Mr. Matthew M'Connell en
has has been elected their Captain ; —
On' Monday the 30th ult.Mie invited
the troopto his country-featover Schuyl- Ja
kill, for the purpose of receiving a (land- bl
aid which Mrs. M'Connell intended to nt
present for their service—the trojjp be
ing accordingly mullered and headed by fp
Lieut. Morrell, proceeded up the Well bi
Chester road 1 at a (hort distance from so
the house they were met by their Cap.
tain, who condudled them to his featj
where they were saluted by a small band p]
of martial music, and a display of some j H
military colours, the troop being form
ed in a li.ie abreast, and the officers ad- jj c
vanced in front, Mrs. M'Connell came
forward from a circle of ladies who at- 0l
tended her, and politely presented to Q f
Cornet Miereken the flag, which was
ornamented with mueh taste an{t ele
gance, with patriotic and expressive de
vices: Mrsi M'Connell, thea, in a grace
ful' rfianner delivered A (hort but perti
nent addrefs>, " requesting the officer j
to accept it as a tfiark of her respect for j tl,
the troop of Volunteer Greens, aildthe p ;
attachment" (he felt for the cause in ;C1
which they were engaged—in full reli- jOl
ance that the corps for whose fei vice it j w
was presented, would never dilhorior a j tl
llandard borne in defence of their coun- tl
try, nor fully by any act unworthy the j g :
dignified character of Republican soldi- j (h
ers, the patriotifrtl which then glowed J*
in their breads." To which Cornet vv
Miereken, in a very officer ( like manner, l e
made the follow reply ! . . 1:
" Madam, in the name of the Volun
teer Greens I tende"- you their mod
grateful acknowledgments for the very
polite and elegant riiark of your elleem, a
which I now receive from you—a (land- . c
ard borne in defence of liberty and.their j 1
country, 1 hope I may aftert with con- : a
fidence, will never be di (graced by an 1
associate band of citizen soldiers, whose v
patriotism and activity has been roused 1
by the national danger, and whose va- I v
lour has every excitement that the mod
intimate relations with the common (
community, honor, duty, connexions,
birth, education, and property can in- I
spire—-Let me add, Madam, that as (
the favors of the fair are ever revered by t
the brave, the Philadelphia troop of '
Volunteer Greens will always recolledt .
while fighting under their banner, that 1
this honorable pledge was a sacred de
polit, committed by a Lady to their '
charge."
After a few mandeuvies the troop 1
difraounted and partook of a genteel re
pad ; preparatory to their departure,
they performed some m ,|.ary evolutions
and firings for the entenainment of the
fpe&ators, in a manner which reflected
high crefdit on the officers and men, and
obtained much applause from some cha
raflers who were present, well qualified
to judge of their merit.
On Friday the 4th inft. the troop of
Volunteer Greens dined at Grey's Fer
ry, at a table very sumptuously provided
by Mr. George Weed, whose attention
on the occasion does him much credit—
After dinner, the following toads were
[ drank, at the conclusion of which the
troop mounted and returned to the city
1 in perfect order, exhibiting a degree of
temperance and harmony that
! always to mark the fedive board.
1. The day —May it ever be confe

their political freedom.
