Philadelphia. September 17, 1794'.
General orders.
THF Governor t»kes the earliest oppor
tunity «f txpreffi'ng his sincere thanks
to the quotis of the brigades of the city
and county of Philadelphia militia, for
their puhdlual and general attendance at
the cimp this day. In a particular man
ner he acknowledges his obligations to Col.
Gurney and his regiment, to Captains
Dilnlap, Singer, and M'Connell, and the
cavalry under their command ; —to the
coi ps of Artillery ; to the several corps
of OreAadicrs arid light infantry, attach
ed 011 this occasion to Colonel Gurney's
regiment; to the volunteer company of
light infantry under the command of Ma
jor M'Pherfon ; And the corps from South
ward A condridV To honorable, and so
fpi'rited, cannot fail to excite a patriotic
emulation thro'-out tli? state ; and the
Governor, with heart-felt fausfailion, an
ticipates a correfpohdent effect, in profit
ing our conftitutlon and laws from the
threatened violation anrl fubverflon. —
Wherever the question, thkt occaC;ns the
present armament; has beer-
and understood, the citizens of l'ennfyl
v.Miia have manifefted their zeal to. mairi T
ta : ri the public peace and order, and even
enemy of the Republic, internal, as well r T s
external, will eventually find, thit thoi'e
who have fought to obtain a free govt ril- I
ment, will as cheers ully fight to prefervc J
it.
In addressing citizens, who have advan
ced under a sense ps duty, for the purpose
of reftoriug the violated authority of the
laws, it is fuj>erfluous to recommend a
constant attention to fo:)ri.:ry and rder, a
ftridl refpeift to the rights of perfeme ami of
private property, in the course of the
march. The Governor is confident that
the conduit of his fellow-citizens, will in
that, as well as in every other ivfpeift,
command the eileeiii, conciliate the d'fpo
fitions, and invite the afliftance and fnend
ftiip of the country thfough which they
pals.
The commanding officers of the respec
tive corps ire requested immediatly to re
port to the adjutant-general, a roll of their
dfficfers, men and equipments ; and, like
wise to prepare atid furniih the advance
antt j ay' rtolls. Such of Ihe militia as wiih
any part of their cav.i:ice or pay be given
to their ftmilk-s during their abfencc, will
pleaie to state the faiie to the commanding
officer of the. proper torps, who will make
a report to the aiijutliit-general, and pro
tifion will accordingly "be made for en
suring a compliance.
