To the Editors of the N. Y Express
learn from Acting Quartermaster VIM. B.
Hatch, that Col. Phelps of the Vermont Regiment
deemed it for the benefit of his men not to come
down Broadway this morning at the beat of the
drum, as they were already excited and worn out
by protracted journey.
Will not Col. Phelps give New York vermonters
an opportunity Of paying tribute of respect and
welcome to his military genius and to his gallant
command of Green Mountain Boys, by marching
his Regiment through broadway, and giving no.
