FOREIGN NEWS.

LATEST FROM EUROPE. The packet ship Ma
poleon arrived at New-York from Liverpool on Wed.
nesday, bringing London papers to Aug. 24th., and
Liverpool to the s6th.
LONDON, AUG. 24-EvEN1NG. Our
surprise at the delay of intelligence from
the seat of war increases delay. We
might to-day have been in possession OF
intelligence ten days later than the date
of the last bulletin. There are no ac-
counts in the Paris papers to Thursday
last, of any importance. The Constanti-
nople articles in them, and in the German
papers, are always liable to suspicion.
We learn by the French papers, that
the first part of the expedition which sail
ed from Toulon on the 18th, consisted OF
forty-eight transports, escorted by eight
men of war. On the following day the
I'd division, consisting of thirty-six more
transports, and three men of war, put to
sea for the same destination.
The news from Portugal may be said

from the Boston Courier, in which it was
intimated that he had relinquished his edito-
rial charge, says that "the omission of his
name is not a retreat from the cares, duties,
and responsibilities of editorship," and that
g the paper has not shifted owner" We do
not exactly agree with the editor of the
Palladium in his ideas Of the Importance or
propriety of continuing the name of the edi-
tor in his paper. We think the EDITORS name
should always accompany the paper. The
omission of it, if not retreat from the cares,
is a partial retreat from the responsibilities,
of editorship.

FOR rnE LANCASTER GAZETTE.

MEssRs. EDIToRs-The introduction of
a new book into school subjects parents of
the pupils to an extra expense, and some
times causes a murmur from those citizens
who are in straitened circumstances. But
could they witness the good effect which
change of reading produces upon scholars
who have got by heart their old book, and
become tired ofrepetition, they would cheer
fully acknowledge their errour, and freely
submit to the tax thus imposed upon them.
This salutary effect, however, depends, in a
great degree, upon the superiority of the
new over the old book. Having, by my in
fiuence, persuaded School Committee to
introduce the Classical Reader, compiled by
the Rev. Mr.. Greenwood and Mr.. G, B.
Emerson, of Boston, into town school,
feel desire, through your columns, to men
ton its success. The purity of its diction,
cannot fail to give an elevated style of read
ing to scholars under good instructor; its
strain of religion and morality must improve
the heart, and its patriotick tone will in
spire in the youthful breast jealous love
of country. The pieces from foreign au-
thors are brilliant specimens of correct
literature; and seem to be nobly contending
to eclipse the equally bright rays of Ameri-
can thought and erudition. The introduce
ton of such course of reading must ele-
vate the standard of education, in every
school, where this chaste book shall be
used. CANDIDUS.

The reader has now before him the
grounds of Gen. Jackson's vote against one
of the most unexceptionable measure which
the House of Representatives of these
United States was ever called to act upon.
They are his sentiments, by his own con-
fession and by the admission of his friends.
They serve to show his hatred of Washing
ton, and the utter hollowness of the preten-
sions of those who now find it convenient
and politick to endeavour to assimilate
Washington's character to his, which has
need of SO many props to sustain it.

We admit the following communication, without
being acquainted with any of the circumstances
which led to it. 1t bears rather hard upon the
politeness and courtesy of band of soldiers, but
if the said company feel that they are not justly
entitled to such praise they shall have an opportu-
nifty, through our columns, to discaim the honour
which is awarded to them -
MILITARY CouRTrsx- On Friday last,
the company of Washington Guards, under
the command of Capt. Abraham Conant, as
sembled at Stow, previous to their march
for Lincoln, to perform camp duty. On ar
irving at Concord, Capt. Conant was politely
waited upon by Capt. Francis Jarvis, iun.,
commander of the Concord Light Infantry,
and requested to suspend the march of his
troops until the Light Infantry could be as
sembled to escort Capt. Commits company
to the Hall. This proposition, as may be
conceived, was very fattering to Capt. Co
nant; who, in the true spirit of chivalrous
gallantry and gentlemanly department, ex-
pressed his obligation of the honour intend
ed the Washington Guards. After short
interval, Capt. Jarvis proceeded with his
company of Light Infantry, for the above
stated purpose, and after forming line, they
commenced their march, the Light Infantry
in Advance, and thus escorting the Washing
ton Guards On arriving at the Hall the
same courtesy was exhibited-the Light In
fantry marching in Indian file into the
room, whilst the rear was brought up by
Capt Conant's company. The patriotick
corps having RECALLED themselves and halted
for short season, renewed their journey
for the "tented field" the Light Infantry
at the express solicitation of Capt. Jarvis
accompanying the march and there similar
cOnrtesies were offered the Washington
Guards by the high-minded and gallant
company of Light Infantry. At 8 o'clock,
A. NJ, the following day, the Washington
Guards commenced their return for Stow.
leaving the Light Infantry in undisputed
possession of the field and all their we'll
earned laurels.

PoTATos. The crops of potatos in this
vicinity, and, we are informed, in other parts
of the country. will be unusually small this
season. A falling off in the quantity of this
very important article should admonish our
farmers to be particularly careful with re-
gard to the qualify of what they do gather.
1t has sometimes been-the case that potatos
have suffered much by being allowed to re-
main toe long in the ground. They ought
to be harvested before they are in danger of
being frozen in the ground, even if not per-
fectly ripe, and the best method resorted to
ofkeeping them dry, and from the frost.
