THE TREATY WITH GREAT Observation-Disclosures OF
TIE WALL STREET PAPERs.-We observe that the
Montreal papers have been led into error IN the
above matter, through the gross blunders of the
Wall street press, in announcing that the treaty had
been RATIFIED and sent to England, when in fact it
was only signed 1t is even still under discussion
in the Senate, and will meet with very strong OPP
position, though the probability is that it will be IA
tilted before the Senate adourns.
We advise the Montreal papers, and indeed all
others at distance from the city, where the misc
rable character OF the Wall street press is not
known, to be very careful how they place the least
reliance on this wretched, laundering, blockhead
class OF papers, that are going down every day, and
are utterly incapable from want of talent, want of
energy, want of enterprise. and want of money 10
procure correct information Of any kind

FACTS ABOUT THE NAVAL ScHooL.-We learn,
that an order has been sent from the Navy Depart
ment, directing that apprentices be shipped
for the Navy al present
We regret this, as it is calculated to do much
harm Our Navy is principally manned by
foreigners, when it ought TO be manned by our own
seamen. If the system of recruiting boys is con-
tinued, 1t will enable us TO man our Navy with those
born upon our SOIL reared up and educated among
US, and who would defend TO the last the stars and
stripes. Asan evidence of the fact, that our Navy
is princpally manned by foreign seamen, we are in
formed that when United States ships crew is dis
charged large numbers Of them take passage and
go home to the places of their nativity in some
foreign country. The packet ship Virginian. which
sailed for Liverpool last Monday, took out as pas
sengers about twenty or thirty of the crew of the
United States ship Brandywne, lately arrived al
Norfolk, who were paid off, and they then must
have taken out of the country at least four or five
thousand dollars. The importance OF continuing to
recruit boys for the Navy is therefore, so apparent
that we hope the Secretary will coun,ermand the
order TO which we refer.
There are at present. only 1900 or 2O8O boys and
young men in the service. We want at least
10000 stout, hearty American lads, who in a few
years. would be able to take our ships to every cline.
We believe that there is institution in the coun-
try so popular with the people as the Naval Schools
and none in which deeper interest is felt for pre-
serving and perpetuatlng them We ought to have
10000 American boys, instead of the small number
on board our ships, and thus send adrlt all the
foreign sailors now employed. Let us think of this
a moment, and then act.

Two DAYS LATER FROM EuRoPE-ARRIvAL OF
PAcKETs-ANoTHKR IcEBERG.-The crack packet
ship South America, Captain ID. G.. Bailey, who
once beat the Great Western, when in the Orpheus,
arrived at Quarantine at three o'clock yesterday az
ternoon, in the very short passage of twenty six
days from Liverpool
She has brought advices TO the 2lst ut. but there
is not a bit of news of any [sort
The South America came into port in company
with the Sherdan,lf from Liverpool, sailed l4th ult
the ST. Nichols, from Havre, 10Th, Columbus, from
Liverpool, l1h and Gladiator, from Portsmouth,
18th. thus beating four of fastest packets as
handsomely as Fashion beat Boston.
On the 22d of July, the 5. A. passed off Tuskar the
packet ship Garrck going in. And in the afternoon
of the same day she passed the St Lawrence COM
manded by Capt. Brown. They probably reached
Liverpool on the 2Sd. Also IN lat %, lon 25, she
new snip from New York for Liverpool, under
the command OF Capt Lyons.
We learn from Captain Bailey that on the 18th
inst in lat i3, Ion "a, 80, he passed within stone
throw of large island Of ice, as big as the United
States Hotel, and looming up one hundred and fifty
feet Thisis the only one he saw, and this is very
remarkable at this season OF the year. Ii must have

SAILING OF IHE GREAT wrsrrRs.-This steamer, known
now as the Fashion of the Ocean, started yesterday at
two o'clock for Liverpool Sixty nine passengers went
in her and full cargo of goods She will beat Cunards

Here are two important facts. Here we
two steamers whose qualities are as nearly alike as
those OF Fashion and Boston, starting from America
for England almost on the same day, one taking
sixty-nine passengers, while the other carries but
ten.
Is this strange No. Can il be explained Easy
enough
III seen tina, New York is the western depot for
| the Great Western, and Boston for the Colun.-
bia.' This fully accounts for the difference in the
number of passengers. 1t is impossible 10 induce
passengers TO go out of their way, at an additional
expense of ten or fifteen dollars TO go to Europe

this port THIS being the great centre the focus of
the west, travellers from all parts of the wide world

point for the north, south, east and west and all

throughout all Christendom to be precisely where
! she is, and what she is, whereas Boston is
| scarcely known at all There is small town in
England called Boston, which is often COMPOUNDED
with that situated somewhere near Cape Cod
These are facts for the people; and it might
well be- said that the owners of the Cunard steam
will feel the full force of them when their means

boats to this port at once and lose no more money
