Extract of a letter from Philadelphia, dated June 2.
Yesterday we had a pause in the business of this city, and a
solemn pause indeed it was; if we except the Friends, I
believe nine tenths of the citizens shut up their houses. 
The bells were rang muffled all the day, and the ships in
the port had their colours half hoisted.
