Philadelphia, March 4.  Extract of a letter from Talbot
Court-House, dated Feb. 11.
[Song composed by an American, commemorating the birthday of
General Washington, sung after toasts at a celebration

In a chariot of light from the regions above, 
The Goddess of freedom appeared;
The sun beams of day, 
Emblazon'd her way, 
And empire America rear'd.
