My DEAR SR.-
hurried oil communication this afternoon, and

very hastily and very unceremoniously-ye it is
justice to say of MIR. Rea, of the United States
Hotel, that he furnished the President and suite
with magnificent accommodations and splendid
dinner-it is superb hotel
After leaving the hoel, 1.-the President fell under
the charge OF Captain Stockton, whom every body
knows. Between Philadelphia, so many addresses
and so many committees met and separated, &c,
that is totally impossible, at railroad speed to keep
up with them all. At Camden the ladies made
quite show-smiled sweety, waved their white
handkerchefs, and looked very beautiful. The wea-
Their was most progressively hot At Burlington there
were the usual speeches on both sides cheer
ing-somc firng-some flags. Dash on to Borden
town. More speeches on both sldes-mOre cheer
ng-more flags, and more firing. Go ahead TO

The President and suite were received last even
