presumed, will be satisfactory. The treaty, it is
stated, has been signed by our minister, Mr.

OF the English government, Its principal pro.
visions are stated TO be as follows
1.-The ship letter postage is fixed at sixteen

papers to destination at two cents each way
An inland postage of FIVE cents to be paid on
each letter, Letters may be prepaid or not, just
k the sender peases Letters from America
for France and other parts Of the Continent Of
Rsrope, are to pass through England free, under
the American seal, and in care of a mail agent
Letters and papers from England for Canada

We have seldom had greater pleasure than
in attending the Concert given by Prof. Dcrwor,

Friday evening last.
b We had heard much Of these youthful per-
Formers bat our surprise and delight Tar exceed.

than 10 years, and as they enter with instru.
menis, the little boy hardly able to carry a vio-
lnce!lo, ms large us HIMSELF one knows not what
to anticipate from such fairy figures aud child
like countenances. They begin with an over
ture, performed by the whole group, with the
most perfect correctness, taste and harmony. -
They arc so thoroughly prepared for their differ
ent parts and play them with such unerring time
and precision, that their tender years are soon
forgotten, in listening to music you would ex-
poet only from experienced performers
The little Willie, only 3 years old, is of course
the greatest wonder, and it is delightful to watch
his intelligent countenance, changing from an
absorbed, serious expression, to a bright, child
ish smile, with the variations of The music, while
his tiny fingers execute the accompaniment to
bis sisters yiolins, with the accuracy and good
taste Of a much older musician. He is certainly
the most remarkable specimen Of a childish mu.
steal genius, which has come 10 our knowledge.
The oldest daughter gave a solo on Der violin,
with grea, taste and effect, executing the most
rapid passages and the high, delicate notes, with
wonderful ease and fidelity, while the two young
er ones sustain their parts with equal correctness
Their singing is also is very swec, and expires
sive Miss Marian has a rich, full voice, which,
accompanied by her little sisters ehild-like but

fine Ducts from Norma, in manner ono would

judgment Of their musical instructor, in not al
lowing their voices to he excited beyond ,hcii

Under such guidance, they must improve rap
