norance often manifested by Englishmen-and by
Englishsen of intshgencc ON other snhlects--inre
ference to tho geographical extent and divisions Of
the United States. The most respectable English
journals--the London Iiaes among The rest, and
even the Quarterly Review---somctimeaab abound with
most cgres ous blunders. We reeoeet that Lord
Byron in his Diary, speaks OF Albany ms a town In
tho vicinity Of Washington. Oa account ct the
commercial intercourse between New York and tho
European ports. that city IL generally regarded
abroad, az The Capital of tho United States, and

some three or four years ago, intending TO take

and butlaloes a few miles back Of Baltimore.
