Eleven regiments of citizens, emulous to excel each other in the character of soldiers and some of those regiments returning more than a thousand men on the field, were gratified with having the eye of the commander in Chief upon them ; and we understand, that His Excellency received a satisfaction far beyond anticipation, in their martial appearance and soldierly discipline, which has been both liberally and justly expressed.
