It is no small pleasure to behold the military spirit
again reviving in this city —The noble example kt

Lattahon of Artillery, whose handsome and foldier
like appearance on Wednesday afternoon last, has
caused an emulation among several companies of the
Militia, who propose to uniform, arm, and accoutre
themselves Compleatly.—Surely nothing can tend
more to the fafety of the Commonwealth, than a
well difriplined Militia, who certainly are the best
guardians of their liberties.

The societies of the diftrids to meet as
often as Khali be agreed upon by the state
societies ; thole of the state on the fourth
day of July annually, or oftener if they
Ihall find it expedient, and the general so

so long as they hall deem it necessary ;
and afterwards at least once in every three
years. At each meeting the principles of
the institution will be fully considered, and
the belt measures to promote them adopted;
The state societies will confitt of all the

Vice President, Secretary, Tie surer, and
Affißant fiealurer, to be cnolen annually
by a major ty of votes, at the state meetin.
Each date meeting Ihall write annually,
or oftener if necessary, a circular letter to
the other state societies, noting whatever
they may think worthy of observation re
specting the good of the society, or the ge
neral un,on of the Rates, and giving infor
mation of the officers chosen for the current
year; copies of these letters Ihall be regu
larly transmitted to the Secretary Gene al
of the Society, who will record them in a
book to be aligned for that purpose.
The state society will regulate every
thing reflecting idelf and the societies of
its diflrids, confident with the general
maxims of the Cincinnati; judge ot the
qualifications ot die members who may be
proposed, and expel any member, who by
a conduct inconißent with a gentleman,
and a man of honor, or by an opposition
to the interests of the c immunity in general
or the foe ety in particular, may lender
himfelf unworthy to continue a member;
In order to form funds wuch tna v be

It is probable that some persons may
