UNITED STATES.

LANCASTER, February 9.

On Saturday last, the gentlemen who compose the Lancaster Troop of Horse assembled at Mr. Slough's, agreeably to appointment, in complete uniform, to celebrate the happy issue of the late expedition against the western insurgents, and to evince unequivocally, their continued attachment to a Constitution under which the United States have prospered and grown into consequence; and their abhorrence of all combinations or associations of men; who, by secret machinations, or open violence, would wickedly attempt to subvert it. The troop was favoured with the company of a very large number of respectable citizens of this borough and its neighbourhood. A splendid dinner was provided for the occasion ; a perfect unanimity of just sentiments prevailed, and the day was closed with that harmony and order which always characterize good citizens.
