By the Violet, whose return from America in bal-
last, we mentioned 3esterday, letter; have been re.
ceived from Norfolk in Virginia, and from Boston in
New England, to the date of the 16th ulr. The Pre-
sident was not expected to arrive at Washington until
the 20th, and it was the general opinion th:-.t Congress
would insist on the ratification of the Trc.ny with
Mr. EusiclNE before any diplomatic conference would
be entered upon with Mr. Itcasosr. No doubt was
entertained that the Non-Intercourse Act would con-
tinue to be rigidly inforced.
We are happy to state, that there is no foundation
for the report respecting the loss of the sloop of war

duras, to their respective destinations.

Tuesday the 14th inst. the Duke of KENT visited
Mr. LANCASTER'S School in the Borough-road. The
Royal Duke remained two hours in the school-room,
and during the whole of that time, the scholars ex-
hibited the most perfect picture of order. His Royal
Highness declared that it afforded him the highest
gratification, find exhibited the most perfect piece of
machinery he ever saw. The children all knew the
rank of their visitor, but none neglected their work on
that account. The happiness, the cleanliness, order and
improvement of the children, all alike contributed to
make the school-room what it always is—a scone of
delight. The &No recently sent his page with a
£lOO bank note. The day of Jubilee was commemo-
rated at Manchester by near 800 boys belonging to a
Royal Lancastrian school, parading the streets, re-
ceiving each a plumb cake, and attending school the
first time. In consequence of Mr. L.'s Lectures en
Education at Manchester, Birmingham, and Sheffield,
schools are instituted at these places, which, when
complete, will contain 2500 children. We are glad
to find Mr. LANCASTER is about to lecture in London.
At the battle of Minden a corps of French gre'll-
diers, commanded by M. de St. Pierre, being exposed
to a battery that carried off whole 'files at once ; S.
Pierre, wishing them not to fall back, rode slowly in
front of the line, with his snuff-box in his hand, and
said, " Well, my boys, what's the matter, eh—C4n-
non ? Well, it kills you, it kills you, that's all, 1111
boys.march on and never wind it,",
