PRESIDENT FILMORE AND THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
—lt was expected that the President of the United States
would be amongst the personages to reach London in 1851,
but the following letter, addressed to Mr. Steil, of Manches-
ter, dissipates the expectation of that pleasure :—" Washing-
ton City, D. C., United States, Dec. 1, 1850. William S.
Steil, V,sq., Manchester. My dear Sir,— I have the honour
to acknowledge the receipt of your kind letter of the Bth
ult., through Mr. Randall, expressing the hope that I may
visit the World's Fair in London in May next, and assuring
me that if I do so I shall receive a cordial welcome from my
countrymen in England, and tendering me the hospitalities
of your own house whilst I remained at Manchester. Pre-
vious to the death of my lamented predecessor I had antici-
pated the pleasure of visiting London at the time of the fair,
but I deem it now impossible to leave my official duties here;
and your kind letter causes a still deeper regret at my dis-
appointment. Were it possible for me to be absent for such a
length of time, nothing could be more gratifying than to
accept your proffered hospitalities. I well recollect meeting
you and your lady in the fall of 1837, and should he ex-
tremely happy to renew the acquaintance. Independent of
that, I have always felt a strong desire to visit Great Bri-
tain. Its soil is classic ground to me, and I should be most
happy to be able to make a personal comparison between the
leading men of that country and my own, and to see how
far we have improved upon the political institutions of the
mother country. But this must be deferred till a more con-
venient season. Accept my thanks for your kindness ; re-
member me most cordially to your lady, and believe me truly
Yount MILLAAD Fizawai."
