Onge, both OF the titst Pennsylvania Volunteer
Regiment, in Broad-sircet, North of the Cen
tire House. The Cadets had that day been cou-
veyed from BRISTOL. in steam boat TO Point
no-Point( about miles above the city, upon
the Delaware.) and had marched from thence
to FRANRFORD. Exaggerated accounts of the
Health OF the City, having reached the com
handing officer of the Cadets, he determined
not TO pass through the thickly inhabited, or
commert i al parts, and conse quentiy took up IL
Westerly line of iaarch to the Germantown
turnpike, up Turner's lane TO Broad street,
and along BrOad-street TO the place appoint
ed for their reception by the Volunteers =
They were received with the usual military
salutes, and after having halted in column, a
part of the Brigade was formed in advance,
and The remainder i'm the rear OF the Cadets.
III this order the whole moved down Broad 10
Market>street, mp Maiketto the Permanent
Bridge across the Schu.lkill, and thence by
the river road 10 the high grounds of MANTUA.
Having reached the ground of their proposed
encampment, the Cadets formed in line, and
presented arms while the troops under Col.
Biddle, passed in quick-tIme, on their return
10 the CITY.

Corps, and smile or a frowu was not 10 the
most rigid observer, disceruabie. Their disci-
pine appeared admirably precise. aud reflect

of their Instructor.
The hasty manner in which the volunteer
brigade parade was got UP induced IFS TO en-
terrain slender ideas OH but the result was
no less astonishing than gratifying, as the dis
play was really extensive and splendid. The
following Corps we believe composed the
Brigade, viz: The First and Second Troops of
City Cavalry, First aud Third Companies of
Washington Guards, State Fepciblss, Nation.
