Thefe matters are note-worthy, fince the Phalanx is the firft Military Organization which was ever received at the Navy Yard with fimilar honors indeed, the firft that was ever permitted to 3 1 march in bearing arms. Faffing the Marines, the Pha- lanx was drawn up before Head-Quarters where they were received by Capt. Hudfon, Commandant of the ftation, and other Naval Officers. Capt. Hudfon wel- comed the Phalanx briefly as follows: Major Commandant and Members of the Putnam Phalanx: I welcome ...you to the Navy Yard, and fhould be moft happy to fhow you whatever of intereft may be upon the premifes. I am no fpeech- maker only a plain Sailor; but when I fee a body of Soldiers drefled in the uniform of the venerated Wafhington, it touches me with an emotion that it is difficult adequately to exprefs. The pres- ent generation can fcarcely imagine the fufferings of their Fathers in that Revolutionary ftruggle; they battled as it were with the halter around their necks; they fuffered, and we now enjoy the Fruits of their Labors.
