His Britannic Majesty acknowledges the said United States, viz.: New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, to be free, Soveireign, and Indiependent States; that lie ipulation by making it a condition in the Ordinance for the government of the territory ceded by Virginia, which obligations, and the laws of the General Government, have ceased to effect the objects of the Constitution.

Vice President Breckinridge then opened the package containing the electoral vote of Maine, and handed it to the tellers, when the certificate thereof was read, the Secretary of the Senate making a note thereof. The electoral votes of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, and New York were similarly disposed of. Senator Douglas suggested, and no objection was made, that the formal part of the certificates, and the names of the electors, be omitted from the reading. The reading of the vote of South Carolina was productive of good-humored excitement. The reading of all the electoral votes having been completed, the tellers reported the result: Whereupon the Vice President, rising, said: Abra

The disembarkation took place in an orderly and expeditious manner, when the regiment headed by the Regimental Board and a Committee of the sons of New Hampshire in New York, marched through Vestry street and Canal street to the Brandreth House, where an American flag was presented by the Committee. On presenting the banner, Judge Bonney made an eloquent address, in which he reviewed the history of the support which the State of New Hampshire has always given the Constitution, at its adoption, as well as whenever it has been menaced since. Col. Tappan responded in a short and patriotic speech in which he pledged himself and his regiment to m great activity.
