Williamsburg, August 8.  Last Tuesday the Hon. Mrs.
Washington arrived in this city, amidst the ringing of
bells, several discharges of artillery and vollies of small
arms from the troops stationed here, and the cordial good
wishes of all the inhabitants, who have the greatest regard
for her Ladyship's own personal merit, and a grateful sense
of the eminent services rendered to the United American
States by her illustrious consort.
