Gazette Of The United States And Daily Evening Advertiser

Yesterday was the Birth-Day of the President of the United States, when he entered into the 64th year of his age. The Auspicious Anniversary was this Day celebrated with every expression of respect becoming the members of a Free Republic towards the Father of his country. The members of both Houses of Congress—Foreign Ministers-the Reverend Clergy, and other Citizens, and respectable Foreigners, assembled at the house of the President to offer their congratulations. At noon a Federal salute was fired by a detachment of the Artillery-immediately after both branches of the Legislature of this Commonwealth preceded by the Governor, the President of the senate and Speaker of the house of Representatives, the Officers of the Militia-and the members of the Cincinnati, went in procession from the State-House, escorted by a military corps, to the House of the President of the United States-to present their felicitations on the occasion.
