NEW YORK, June 8.-A grand reception of the Thirty-seventh and Thirty-eighth regiments took place this afternoon. The escort comprised the Second, Seventy-first, Sixty-ninth and Fifty-sixth Infantry regiments, together with a regiment of cavalry, a battery, and the City Government.
The procession was about a mile in length, and was reviewed from the Metropolitan Hotel by Major General Sickles, who addressed the returned regiments. It was also reviewed at the Fifth Avenue Hotel by Major General McClellan. The crowd of people to witness the affair was immense, even for this city. The regiments partake of a banquet this evening.
