On Wednesday last the eastern delegates arrived in this
city. They were met about six miles from town by the
officers of all the companies in the city, and by many other
gentlemen on horseback, in all amounting to five hundred.
When they came within two miles of the city, they were met
by a company of riflemen, and a company of infantry, with a
band of music, who conducted them through the most public
streets of the city to their lodgings, amidst the
acclamations of near fifteen thousand spectators.
