By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan . Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

Truly the Americans, as a people, lack veneration or gratitude, perhaps both. The train reached the fair grounds, some two miles distant from Richmond, at six in the even ing. The Mayor and a committee of citizens were in waiting to welcome his Royal Highness to the capital of old Virginia. There was an immense concourse of people who blocked up all the avenues leading to the Ballard Hotel, so that t he carria g es could scarcely force a passage. The cheering, or rather howling, was villanous. There was to have been a ball in the evening, but that greatest of all difficulties—financial difficulties—stood in the way of its being carried out on a proper scale, so the idea was abandoned. Richmond is not a little altered from the time when Madame Esmond reared her young Virginians here. Seen from a distance, it looks a very hand some town, both far grander and far larger than it really is. Its population is only about 40,000, of which nearly one-half are blacks and slaves. The Capitol is a bizarre Gresco-American building which runs much to windows, as is generally the case with all the public buildings of this continent. In the hall of this building is the noble statue of Wash ington, the first erected to that great patriot, with a simple, dignified inscription worthy of the hero it commemorates. The sculptor's legend in the corner reads, " Fait pur Houdon, Citoyen Francais, 1788." Like all other slave-state capitals, there are slave pen s f or th e p u blic auction of these miserable beings in this city. matter of course, no liberty of opinion is allowed here on the subject of slavery, and any known advocate of abolition doctrines would run a considerable risk of his life if discovered in the city. The New York Tribune, which, of course, advocates the cause of the miserably oppressed negroes, is the foremost object in the hate of the Virginians, many of whom looked forward with savage delight to the prospect of finding out and Lynching its reporter, in case he was bold enough to follow the Prince of Wales to Richmond. That gentleman, however, was fortunately aware of the kind feeling enter tained towards him,:and took such precautions as enabled him to avoid its manifestation on his behalf. One might as well talk of freedom of opinion in China or Morocco as of the liberty allowed to either thought or speech in any of the slave-states of America. Would any man's life be worth an hour's purchase who should express sympathy with the black or horror at his degrading, cruel bondage in either Charlestown or Richmond? Not an hour ; not a minute. It is stated in the New York papers that an unfortunate newsagent, found in Arkansas with some copies of the Tribune in his possession, has actually been stintenced to be hung*by the Vigilance Committee, who " detected " him. During all the night of the arrival every room and stairway in the Ballard Hotel was crammed with a low wretched mob, each striving and hust ling to get some look into the apartments where his Royal Highness was staying. There were cat calls, shouts, and whoopings, with cries for him to show himself—invitations with which, I need scarcely say, his Royal Highness did not comply, for the rough, howling, brutal mob that had swarmed round his carriage on arriving at the hotel had given him a pretty good insight into the gene ral tendencies of a Richmond crowd. Next day (Sunday) he attended divine service at St. Paul's Church, nearly the whole congregation rising to gape and stare at him when he entered. After service, contrary to the practice which the whole party have rigidly adhered to of resting on Sunday, the Prince with the Duke and a few mem bers of his suite walked out to see the Capitol. While here a rough dirty crowd collected, who crowded in upon the party most unceremoniously, making all sorts of coarse, vulgar remarks upon the personal appearance of its members in a loud con versational tone, audible to everyone. While the Prince stood looking at the statue of Washington, to which I have already alluded, some called out '• Guess, he whipped you Britishers ;" " Oh, you like him, don't you ? Sartain ;" with other insult ing observations of a still coarser nature. The Prince took not the least notice of this ruffianly ill taste, but after a while went to the Senate Cham ber, and then quitted the building. In the street, of course, they were all followed by a still larger crowd, which at last grew so great that to avoid it the whole party turned into the house of Governor Letcher, where they remained for some time, escap ing at last by a private door to their carriages, in which they drove out to Hollywood Cemetery, re turning to their hotel in the evening. BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, OCT. 9. The Prince arrived here last night. A great crowd assembled to see him pass to his hotel. To• day he goes on to Philadelphia, which is making great preparations for his reception. On the 11th he arrived at New York. He came down here via Norfolk and Washington after a long and fatiguing day's journey. It is quite a comfort to think that, for mere flesh and blood could not withstand its in cessant fatigue much longer, even the Prince yearns for a little rest and quiet, and nearly all the suite are utterly tired out' The festive ordeals of New York and Boston have yet to be gone through, but at least there will be no travelling all day between each fete. Sir Henry Holland, who as a personal friend of the President, was invited out to meet the Prince at the White House, returns again to England by this mail. THE PRINCE OF WALES. It was hardly to be expected that the Prince ce Wales should pass through the United States with out some display of discourtesy on the part of a small section of the people. In every free country it is in the power of an insignificant minority to set itself against the feelings of the public, and, by its vio lence, noise, and ill-breeding, to call down on the nation of which it forms a part the censure of the unthinking. We have had in this country sufficient proofs that a faction may sympathise with all the country detests, and may glory in displaying its malevolence and narrow-mindedness in the face of popular indignation. God forbid that we should ever desire that the people of any country which has a common origin with our own should be drilled to uniformity of opinion. or be tutored in enthusiasm by a police. It is one of the good effects of liberty that any outrage is sure to call up corresponding demonstrations of good feeling, and we doubt not that the vulgar and unprovoked attack made on the Prince of Wales at Richmond, Virginia, will augment the cordiality with which more important cities and a more enlightened class will receive the representative of a friendly nation. It is hardly necessary to assure the English people, as our Nov York correspondent does, that the Americans are disgusted at the conduct of the Richmond mob, and that they have no sympathy with the acts of the Irish emigrants in New York. Whatever has hap pened, or shall happen, the American people given ample proof that they appreciate the aP the Prince's visit, and know how to respect them selves in respecting their youthful guest:- es in the After travelling many hundreds of m eg i h but sin- Far West, after being received with f cere politeness by the inhabitantse r r o a irie villages their way or the solitary pioneers who arttitiehewing Prince of Wales, gradually through the forestt, c aital of Virginia, in his journey East, came t° contains some memo an old English town which+hotraveller.

F anc y a mo b of four or five hundred slavedealers, horsedealers, small planters, li( - 1nor-store keepers and loungers, probably together wit a large sprinkling of black_ guardism from vrilreland, and you will probably have the crowd that rushed after the Prince of Wales and the Duk eof Newcastle. Accustomed to uncon trolledofvioiendominion over the streets, ready for any deed. from the tarring and feathering an Abolitionist; to the burning alive of an insurgent Negro, a Southern mob is capable of being led away by any worthless fellow who gets its ear, and when once excited is soon beyond the control even of its leaders. It appears that at Richmond the crowd began by being merely curious and jocose. They pushed in, and allowed the Prince's party no privacy whatever. While examining a statue of Washington, the Prince was saluted with such remarks as "He (Washington) socked it into you at the Revolution. "He gave you. English squirts the colic." ", 1 ; s reckon you do love Washington—oh ! certa in; , t h e.. the party walked to the Senate-chamber “ started a run, and actually pushed th em inside crowtn; ~~- ~~~ -e_ / door." The party would have been glad to stay, but it was impossible. " They walked, still fol lowed by the rude populace, to the Governor's house, where the closed doors allowed them to breathe freely, and to be presented to the ladies. Then their carriages slipped unobserved round the corner, and eluding their tormentors the party rode back to the hotel, only to find another crowd preg nant with similar ideas of hospitality." Such was the Richmond episode. 'We do not say nor believe that there was any personal or political displayed towards the Prince. It was only the coarseness of a set of vulgar rowdies, who cared neither for their own reputation nor that of their country. It has been the first instance of rudeness met with by the Prince since he has been in the United States, and it will probably be the last, so far as the Americans themselves are concerned. But we are told that it was probable the Prince's visit to New Yo r k w ou ld not pa ss off without some display of on the part of the Irish popula tion. W e ma k e no d ou b t t h at, t hi s f act i on h av i ng given the public warning of what they are inclined to do, the respectable inhabitants of New York have taken care that a slur should not be cast on their city by such m ac hi na ti ons. V ery great pre parations had been made for receiving the Prince in what is really the m e t ropo li s of the United States. As the municipality d oes not command the confi dence of the inhabitants, a committee had been formed, and a ball was to be given to the Prince on a scale of unusual magnificence. A review or parade of the City Militia was to take place on the 11th, and it was in expectation of this parade that the " Irish-born citizens" of New York met to show their animosity to England and the English Crown. They " protested against the outrage done t o th e i r feelings as free men and citizen soldiery by the action of Major-General Sandford to do honour to the Prince of Wales , the representative of a Go vernment which has driven themselves from their homes and which continues to destroy their kith and kin in the land of their nativity." One of the resolutions was that "it is beneath the dignity of a sovereign people, and a stain on its manhood, to pay court in any form to monarchs," &T. Another is that " whereas the Crown of England, to which the Prince of Wales is heir, is responsible for the wrongs inflicted on lrelaud, for the banishment and proscription of her people,f the destruction of their homes, and the suppression of her ancient nationality ; and whereas it is no portion of their duty as citizen-soldiers to exhibit themselves before a scion of the Royal house, to which they owe nothing but eternal hostility—therefore be it re solved that we decline to exhibit ourselves before the Lord Prince of Wales on the 11th inst., or at any other time, in the State of New York." If this be all the demonstration that is intended everything will be well. By all means let the Irish stay away. It will be remembered that when the heir to the constitutional throne of England—the representa tive of the people which has founded and organised liberty—visited the great city of the western world, he was received with cordiality and respect by men of all classes and opinion, and that only Irish Papists refused to do him and his country honour. It will also be remembered that this took place in the year 1860, at a time when a band of these same Irish, who had sold themselves to be the cut-throats of a foreign ecclesiastic, were lying in a Pi e d m ont ese prison, having surrendered without striking a blow, in a manner which had moved,he scorn and deri sion of the world. By all means let the Irish " citi zen-soldiers" stay away. While the review is going on they may employ themselves in a representation of the gallent defence of Spoleto, or in one of those long marches Gen. Lamoriciere prescribed as the only cure for their riotous propensities. The Prince of Wales will not miss them, and all respectable American citizens will be glad to get rid of their presence, even if it be only for a few hours. That the New-Yorkers will be at all take's by their de monstrations or their manifestoes we do not for a moment believe. Ten years ago Irish grievances were a creed in the States ; but now times are altered. The old verbiage about the Government " which has driven them from their homes," and which " continues to destroy their kith and kin in the land of their nativity," is now pretty well used up. The Irish will only have given another proof of their stupidity and malevolence, and in a few days their demonstration will receive its condemna tion from all parts of the Union,—Times. THE 311SSNG STEAMER EDINBURGH. (From the Scotsman.) Our Leith correspondent writes:— The lvanhoe steamer returned to Leith yester day morning, after having been out since Saturday in search of the screw steam-ship Edinburgh, which has not been heard of since the 2d inst., the day on which she left Leith for Cronstadt. The Ivanhoe traversed the parts of the North Sea where it was most likely that tidings of the missing steamer could be obtained, going in her search to the coast of Jutland. We regret to say, however, that no tidings of the Edinburgh have been Obtained. Many vessels were spoken to, but none of them had seen any vessel answering to the object of the search. One reported that bales of cotton, such as were on board the Edinburgh, had been seen float ing about. Nearly all hope of the safety of the vessel and her passengers and crew has been aban doned. The return of the Ivanhoe without making any discovery has struck deep grief into the hearts of those who had friends on board the missing steamer. Dr. Mackenzie (who was returning to Russia, where he resided previous to the Crimean campaign), with his wife and several children, were passengers on board. Twenty-five of the crew, including Captain Steele, have left wives and families ; the remainder of the crew consisted of three or four single men. The cargo of the ves sel, as formerly stated, was made up chiefly of iron and stone in the bottom of the hold, and cotton above, with some bales of cotton and two engine-boilers on the deck. The vessel, we are informed, was well found, the cargo safe and care fully stowed, and not so great by 150 tons as had been frequently carried in safety by the vessel to and from Cronstadt. The captain was beyond doubt a careful and skilful mariner, tnd the mates, engineers, and other members of the crew were piced men." "3- THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 23, 1860. TILE PRINCE'S VISIT TO THE UNITED STATES. (From the Special Correspondent of the Times.) WASHINGTON, OCT. 6. His Royal Highness saw as much of Washington in his three days' visit as any one can ever see who stays there three weeks, three months, or even three years, with the one exception, that he took away a very favourable impression, which those who dwell much longer seldom do. - - Washington consists of a few magnificent public buildings ; the town per se has, if I may so speak, nothing whatever to do with the place beyond that its shabby wretched little dilapidated houses act as a foil to the marble palaces of the Government, making them seem like jewels badly set: Even in these very public buildings, however, Washing:-on is unfinished. There is not one which is entirely completed —some scarcely well begun. In short, the only structures which are complete are the houses of the city, and those are the ones which should all be pulled down at once. When you have visited the capital and Mount Vernon, admired the Treasury, Patent and Post-offices, called at the , White House, suffered under a bad hotel, and con tinually mistaking the Washington Monument for a lighthouse, all of which, especially the two latter, you do easily in three days, you may quit the ad ministrative capital of America with perfect ease of mind as to your having seen as much of the place as if you had lived there all your life. His Royal Highness has gone through all this, except the bad hotel business, and no matter what else he has hurried through, he has at least seen Washing ton, and knows all that visitors can ever know about it. He made a long visit to the Capitol with the President and chief members of his suite. This is one of the noblest buildings in America. Its site is unusually fine, its proportions are massive and noble, and its severe, grand simplicity of architec ture well becomes the Administrative halls of a great Republic so young and primitive as this. Of course, it is not finished, and it is likely to be very many years before it ii. It would not be difficult to say to what particular order of architecture it belonged. Its noble columns are Corinthian. Yet there is a huge cupola at the top which is at variance with the rest, 'which is too elongated for a dome, though the diameter of its base, if I am not much mistaken, in appearance, is very nearly as great as that of St. Peter's at Rome. It is Bacon who says that "iu the truly beautiful there is always something strange," and the force of the remark is exemplified in the Capitol of Washington, which, though not in perfect harmony with itself, either inside or out, is, nevertheless, one of the grandest and most imposing structures I have seen here. It is all built of pure white marble —as, indeed, all the other public build ings, and many even of the houses of Washington are also. The main entrance to the interior is by a noble and lofty flight of steps—those daises of architecture which always add so much to the grand and imposing effect of lofty facades. At the top of the steps at either side are two allegorical groups of statuary; one a very fine one representing the in fluence of civilization on the savage Indians ; the other a poor, clumsy, and badly-executed figure of Columbus. Passing under a fine colonnade, you enter the Rotunda beneath the dome, a fine and spacious circular hall, with some good and some very badly executed pictures on the walls which form the outer circle, the inner magic ring towards the centre being composed of wide-mouthed highly-decorative iron spittoons. Nothing more: forcibly repudiates the vulgar notion as to the expectorating accuracy of Americans than the appearance of the marble round these noisome receptacles. These spittoons are the first things you see on entering, and from this moment you never lose sight of them as long as you remain in the building. No matter where you wander—into the Senate Chamber, the House of Representatives, the Speaker's Room, the gor geous room of the President, the yawning dirty nuisance haunts you everywhere. You tumble over them in quiet corners of rich frescoed halls ; they flank the tribune and the Speaker's chair, like quaint supporters, and stand in hideous rows and semicircles round the halls—recognised institutions of the place ; the little altars on which every one asserts his nauseous liberty of spitting, no matter who is present or what the occasion. A long and for the proportions of the building a very low and narrow corridor leads to the Hall of Representa tives, a large and very low square chamber, with the Speaker's seat and tribune facing the entrance, and a large semicircle of seats and desks (each with the never absent spittoon, of course) ranged round the floor. The visitor who enters the Capitol for the first time with his mind still impressed with the chaste, simple grandeur of the exterior, looks forward to seeing in the Hall of Representatives another illustration of quiet dignity, becoming in a young republic, which claims to carry ,its simplicity almost to sternness, which in its love fer plainness affects to think even a court dress a backsliding into gorgeousness not to be tolerated in its Mini sters abroad. But alas for the disappointment which awaits him with these ideas ! He sees before him the Hall of Representatives, a chamber like a disused show-room, which has all windows in its ceiling, and yet has no light; which is large with out being spacious, low in height without looking comfortable, covered with gilt and scarlet without being decorated, gaudy without effect, costly yet mean and even dirty in its appearance, with a tawdry vulgarity of splendour that disgusts every man of taste, and with its enormities of gilt and paint sufficiently darkling and obscure to fail to impress the masses. There is a kind of mixture of a grand Californian bar-room and a second-rate Paris cafe—an air of a rather well worn half-business place of entertainment, which is inexpressibly disappointing to one's anticipations, and which even the recollection of the exciting—in deed, violently exciting, debates it has witnessed quite fails to remove. Of what use are recollections or imaginations when it only requires the presence of a dingy waiter to assure you that, in spite of everything you must have made a wrong turn, and wandered by mistake into the ill-decorated salle-a manger of the House ? This impression is by no means lessened when one passes through the large barbers' saloon, just off a corner of the chamber, where in the light garrulity of the tonsors the mem bers find relief from a debate of unusual calm and dulness. With a few alterations, such as moving back the side walls some 20 feet, heightening the roof at least 30, whitewashing the gilt, extinguish ing the red, and entirely remodelling the whole interior, the Chamber might be made something of, but any change which does not carry out all these improvements had better be left alone. It is a com fort to pass from this to the old Senate Chamber — the first that was ever used in Weshington—the Chamber which has echoed the eloquent and mostly anti-English denunciations of Webster, Clay, Cal houn, and other of the greatest American states men, the chamber in which all the measures have been discussed and passed to laws which have brought this vast empire to its present eminence. It is higher, but in all other respects much like in size its modern successor, except that its decora tions are cold and plain almost to severity. The Senate Chamber now in use is precisely the same in size and form with that of the House of Repre sentatives. It is very plain, however, and would almost be handsome looking, but for its mean pro portions. The Democrats, or slaveholding party, sit on the left as you enter, the Republicans, or anti slavery, on the right. From the Capitol the Prince visited the Patent-office, a noble building, such a one as our own indefatigable Patent-chief BennetWood croftwould wish to raise in London. Here the Prince saw a suit of uniform belonging to Washington, and the clumsy old printing-press ofFranklin. When will the English get, a National Museum for such germs of the great inventive genius of her people? Beyond this visit, and a short drive round the city, nothing of note was done, and in the afternoon the party returned to the White House. This Pre sidential mansion is not imposing though handsome, plain, and simple, painted white to conceal the traces of the conflagration when it was burnt by the English in the war of 1812. In one of the rooms still hangs the great portrait of Washington, cut from the frame by Mrs. Maddison while the English were actually entering the city. It is a very handsomely furnished building, though not at all better if as well as many of the houses of the merchants of New York. In front of it is a little enclosure, and at almost the corner of the avenue a chestnut tree with a deep scared bark. At the foot of this Sickles murdered Mr. Key, and some of the bullets were cut from the tree and produced in court. The very plain, a r n e d side li n k c e e most other Sickles st houses o is nuosesthe in te Washington, poor side of the square with a hideous statu e o f o G p e p n o e s r i al Jackson always bowing to it. What did poor General j ackson do that he should be over whelmed with such posthumous opprobrium as this dreadful figure perpetuates ? George 111, saluting the com c p a a b r s e t d a n in t o d it, andth more Haymarketth than n i a w this s lor cannotk of genius say. On the evening of Thursday, the 4th, there was a g w. r a h n i t d e u display ou s House, of onfi which, e h w i. o c h r s a a s n p dr private, ae small party neea n o a t t f t u h r e_ ther dwell. xpedition was made to Mount On the Sth an 0 Vernon—the house, the home, and tomb of Wash ington. A large party went early in the morning down to the dockyard, where the Government steamer, called after the niece of the President—the Harriet Lane—was waiting. Under a double salute for the Prince and President, the party embarked, and went away down the broad and glittering waters of the Potomac. Washington is not impressive from this noble river. The intended dome of the Capitol, half finished as it is, looks like an extinguisher, and the Washington Monument more like a lighthouse than ever. The city, too, lies low and straggling, and its whole aspect is flat and poor. It may and must be grand hereafter, but with that I have no thing now to do, but only speak of it as it is. Far down the river the little town of Alexandria nestles in a green bank. Some ten miles below this the shores on either side are higher and more grand. The Harriet Lane steered for the most conspicuous of these, and anchored, and the large party went ashore in cutters, the Prince steering the one in which the President sat. You step from the boat upon Virginian territory, and are at the foot of Mount Vernon, a steep wooded headland, which rises abrupt from the shore of the Potomac, and on which the clustering trees and thick rough under wood stand out in startling contrast from the red bricky earth, the characteristic colour of all Vir ginian soil. A winding irregular footway leads up here, broken away in gaps, over which a few clumsy planks supply the place of the crumbling earth. Bits of bricks and stone, with now and then dead boughs, lie in the way s always nalrew and difficult and crowded in upon by branches, while around as far as one can see through the neglected shrubbery is rank and uncultivated, with an unmistakeable aspect of desertion, of slow, and long decay in every wild straggling deep-tangled thicket. Even the trees are mildewed over with a sickly moss, and look damp and ruinous, the ground between ' the briars is littered ankle deep with fallen leaves, while broken boughs, all white and brittle, are scattered everywhere, and peer out starkly through the matted weeds. Is this Mount Vernon, the Home of Washington; is this the property pur chased by a grateful nation to save it from decay and demolition ? Alas ! Republics are ungrateful masters, and have been so from all time. Still toiling up through the steep, neglected wilderness, you come out at last upon a sloping open grass plot, more like a rough meadow now, though once a well kept lawn. Small groups of trees are planted here and there, and underneath a few are wide-armed garden seats, bleached white with long exposure to the weather, and fast falling to pieces. In the centre of the lawn is a long, straggling, old-fashioned wooden country house, three stories high, with very tall, square wooden pillars, supporting a broad balcony, which shades over the whole front. Beneath this, in an irregular square stone pave ment, is a long, angular, wooden seat, white and almost decayed, placed close by the side of a nar row double-leafed door, from which the yellow paint is worn and the panels are shrunk and cracked. Above the balcony, with its wooden lattice balus trade, ruined and broken like torn lace, is a sloping irregular tiled roof, green with the moss and damp of many years. Four pointed little gable windows peep timidly from under the eaves of this, while in the centre of the ridge rises a little glass lantern, like a belfry, with a huge rusty weather-cock, and and an iron lightning-conductor of great thickness. At either side of the house, curving backwards, are the blanched remains of little vaulted arcades, lead ing to dilapidated farm-buildings in the rear, while on the left, another large tiled outhouse, in better preservation, though still in keeping with the rest in swift decay, completes the scene. Such is the first appearance presented by the remains of this world-famous building; such, and no more, are the plain simple features of the house in which George Washington lived and died. Every window in its quaint white wooden front has an interest now ; every little peculiarity is scrutinised as you stand amid the silence that belongs to decay, and note its every aspect for memory to treasure up and dwell upon hereafter. The old faded green blinds are closed over the sitting room, as if the house was mourning ; the others are open, but dim, hollow, and vacant, looking like eyes from which the light has fled for ever. The closed windows speak only of death, but there is something in those sightless glaring panes, stained black with dust, and tapes tried with webs; there is a mute appealing mourn fulness in their decay—in the sad efforts which they seem to make to keep the daylight from en trance in the gloomy rooms beyond that is almost touching; that speaks of one not only dead, but dead and long forgotten. The gaunt white columns are riven with unseemly gaps and crumbling to de cay ; the bell wires outside the house are worn to threads and parted, leaving a mouldering rusty stain along the wooden walls. The upper windows seem to have grown decayed and lost their light, as if from long neglect of use, for years have come and gone since these were wanted—since any faces looked for light from them. The very walk under the arcade has a faint cold echo of the past ; the solitary tap, tap from drops of water breaks on the stillness with a sound which here is noise ; the old green-tiled roof droops in slow bends, as if, its duty done, it, too, was slumbering to decay with all the rest. There is a loneliness about the place, about its solitary quiet and forlornness, that more than clings to tombs ; it is the echoing loneliness of the forsaken-mansion of one greatest in world's history, left desolate, and never to be used again. The stacks of chimneys stand in sharp outline against a cold October sky, dumb and smokeless, breathing no signs of hospitality or token of life within those mute white walls. There are no swallows near the building, no people round the place ; even the vane above the lantern is rusted into quiet never broken here save by the falling leaves or wind, or drip, drip, drip of water; Even the glass belfry on the roof has a ghastly look, as all white and empty, its iron bell rusted and dead, and its dim shadowy looking windows just permitting the light of a cold October sun to be seen through its little panes. The most bigoted stranger that ever trod within these sacred precincts cannot look around without emotion, cannot free his mind from a feeling of sorrow that this touching relic of one of earth's noblest dead should be now in such a state and left to such decay. Those who wish to see the interior of the house must search to the left, where, down in a cellar, a negro woman and her family almost lurk—a slave herself, though the only cicerone to the deserted mansion of the man who gave freedom and independence to this continent. This woman has the key of the house, and, p ass i ng su lkily under the arcade, points out with a monotonous drawl of habit the old armchair in which Washing ton used to sit near the door, with its little desk fastened to one side on which he wrote and an swered the despatches placed in a drawer beneath. The ramcc wag honourod by haying tha chair brought out for him to sit in—a chair which future ages will regard with as much veneration as the thrones of state on which the whole dynasties were crowned. But the slave is tired of pointing it out, and hurries on to the door, fumbling in her pocket for the key, while she apologises in sham bling terms for the ruinous decay to which the house is falling. Oh, vanitas, vanitatum ! a dirty negress shows the home of Washington for cents, and drops her maudlin pity on its sad forlorn neglect. Inside the door is an old-fashioned wooden hall, wide and low, with heavy, lumbering porticos carved above the doors on either side, and a wide, thick-stepped staircase climbing up from the corner. The boards creak as you tread on them with a loud noise, which echoes gloomily through the house.; the doors and shutters are decayed and shrunken, and let through flaunting, sharp-edged gleams of light, which find no resting place in the gloom beyond, but, filled with dusky, eddying motes in clouds, seem struggling back again. Over one por tico are a few rough stones—fossils which Wash ington picked up and placed there, which might almost have become fossils since he gathered them, so bygone seems all belonging to him, here in his very home. In a little case in the left nangs a rough massive key of iron, which once closed on crimes and mysteries the world can only dimly guess at now, which is as typical of shattered power and despotism overthrown, as if the fleur-de lis sceptre of the Bourbons was hung up broken there. That old misshapen key represents the crimes of a great dynasty and their tremendous punishment : it is the first-fruits of the French Revolution—the key of the Bastille. By its side hangs a little black profile and portrait of La fayette, who presented it to Washington. Instinctively one looks to the opposite wall f or some token of the freedom which Washington gave to our descendants ; but the cracked neglected panels are blank and dumb and make no sign save of decay. There is no token on the wall, b u t you are told that his most enduring record is to be fo u nd in the memories of a grateful nation. Well, let us see ! An apartment off the corner of the hall was his sitting room. It is empty, cold, and vacant, with one of those dim lightless windows, just letti ng in sufficient murky day to add to its cheerless gloom. In the corner is a little fire-place, from which the grate has been torn out, leaving a black gaping aperture as mournful as a grave. Oyer it, framed in the wainscot, is a painting which once represented a bright summer day; but the winter of adversity and cold neglect has overtaken its warm hues, and dim and faded in its dirt as a November morn it looks even more wretched than the room itself with its colours blurred out and holes and tatters in its decaying canvas: In a corner of the apartment is its only article of furniture—a large terrestrial globe, with its zodiac half eaten through with rust—its compass broken, and the globe itself a dirty brown ball with scarce an outline distin guishable on its surface from damp and long neglect. Turn it round, and there seems something retribu tive in the fact that the United States—the very land he gave its freedom to, whose destinies he studied on this very globe—is a mere black stain, utterly unrecognisable under the mouldy decay to which this relic has been abandoned. It is written, " Put not your trust in Princes," but you may say " Put not trust in peoples either," for their captious love is hard to win and easily lost, and when once gone can never be revived. The room leading from this was the dining and state-room—large, dim, and empty except that in one corner stands the General's piano —an old fashioned yellow jangling harpischord. In the cen tre, on a quaint enamelled plate, like a watch dial, are the names of "Longman and Broderip, musical instrument-makers, Cheapside, London," but no date. In one corner is a dirty heap of leather and old rags. What do they here ? Has not this building fallen low enough but it must be a storehouse for old lunir? "Lumber!" says our guide; I suceo they're the General's saddle- bags and holsters.' And such, indeed, these mouldy fragments turn out to be —the old embroidered holsters, fall of holes, and shreds of ruin ; the saddle-bags, moth-eaten and fall ing to pieces strewing the floor, a mere unsightly litter. In this room is the beautiful marble mantel piece presented to Washington by his devoted friend and admirer, Lafayette Ha rich and elaborate structure—the only object in the whole house which retains its pristine cleanliness and form—shining out like a flower in a ruin. The room in which Washington died is upstairs, but none are allowed to enter it ; perhaps this sanctuary is too decayed to be safe for visitors. There is no more to see, and if there is you do not wish to see it. Let the dust settle again upon the rooms in which Wash ington lived and thought and worked for his coun try. They echvith a hollow feeble effort, as if sickening to their decay, unwonted noises pained them. Close the blinds, and let them wither in silence. This house will not cumber the earth for long. How true is that eternal moral, " The evil that men do lives after them ; the good is often in terred with their bones." The key of the Bastille will survive as the type of a tremendous despotism when the sanctuary of liberty in which it now hangs shall have passed away like a tale that is told. Away from the house is a rough, broken footpath which leads through mazy wilds—a mingled debris of ruined woods and buildings. Down this the Prince and President and all the Royal party passed, a gay assemblage of some 100 visitors, going to Washington's tomb. It is a needless itera tion to point out how utterly waste and neglected is this road, which seems to wind through the coarse, wild underwood, like an abandoned cattle-track. At last, through the trees, you come upon what seems to be the ruins of a cemetery, where, in front of a red brick wall, a few white marble columns, hemmed in by rusty iron railings, stand like sentries of the dead. Move round to the front of this wall and before you is a hollow arched gateway shut in by double iron gates. Within this gloomy recess are two white marble coffin-shaped sarcophagi, which reflect a wan and ghastly light over the little vault. That to the left bears the inscription, " Martha, consort of Washington ;" on the other is simply cut in massive heavy letters the one word, " Washington." Beyond this there is nothing ; and nothing else is needed, for the history of a world is carved in those 10 deep letters. There is no pomp of woe about the spot. I almost wish there were, for now the tomb has the plainness that springs from neglect, and from neglect a vast decay will rise in time. The old red walls are scored with vulgar names, bricks have been broken out, and the very stone tablet overhead which tells that " Within this enclosure rest the remains of General George Washington" is debased with the offensive scrawls of travellers, not ashamed to leave these records of their vulgar infamy behind. Over tho bricks creep wild and tangled shrubs,—weeds, rub bish, and mortar are littered in front, while all around it is a dirty thriftless waste, like the remains of a shrubbery in which a building once stood. No pious care seems to have ever tended this neglected grave, none by to shield it from the desecrations of idle profanity. It is here alone in its glory, uncared for, unvisited, unwatched, with the night wind for its only mourner sighing through the waste of trees, and strewing the dead brown leaves like ashes before the tomb. such is the grave of Washington ! " Where may the wearied eye repose While gazing on the Great, Where neither guilty glory glows Nor despicable state? Yet one, the greatest, last, and best, The Cincinnatus of the West, Whom envy dared not hate, Bequeathed the name of Washington, To make men blush there was but one." Before this humble tomb the Prince, the Presi dent, and all the party stood uncovered. It is easy moralising on this visit, for there is something grandly suggestive of historical retribution in the reverential awe of the Prince of Wales, the great grandson of George lll.,standing bareheaded at the foot of the coffin of Washington. What may not history bring forth ? The descendants of a regene rated line of Hapsburgs may yet do honour at the tomb of Garibaldi. Fora few moments the party stood mute and motionless, and the Prince then proceeded to plant a chestnut by the side of the tomb. It seemed when the Royal youth closed in the earth around the little germ that he was burying the last faint trace of discord between us and our great brethren in the West. May it be so, and may no American in times hereafter think of the tomb of Washington without remembering the friendly visitor who planted the tree in whose grateful shadow it reposes. May the act live in the memo ries of both nations green as the tree that records it, and Britons recollect that in this graceful rite of homage to the memory of one whom we must now strive to claim as our descendant, the Prince did honour to himself and his nation. The simple cere mony over, the party returned to the Harriet Lane, and "danced away dull care." Alas, that I should say so, but the whole visit to the shrine of Washing ton partook more of the nature of festivity than homage. But the world is made up of inconsisten cies, and, as Thackeray says truly, we see tears under bridal wreaths and hear jokes in mourning coaches. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, OCT. 8. . , The Prince has paid a flying visit of some 40 hours to this legislative capital of the old dominion, as it is called, for Virginia was the first English colony in North America. Here the first slaves were imported in 1620, and to this hour Virginia remains one of the most uncompromising supporters of pro-slavery doctrines in all the Union.
