WAsH:NGToN. Oct 3.-Baron Renflew| arrived at four o'clock by special train There were about l 1000 spectators at the| station, evincing intense anxiety to obtain| view of his person, and in this they wero| gratifed. They greeted his appearance withl cheers. Immediately on the arrival of the train, Gen. Cass was introduced to Lord Renfrew by Lord Lyons, when the former said he had the pleasure of welcoming his Lordship to Washington in the name of the President, and with his Lordship's per. mission he would accompany him to the executive mansion. 7d J .Q-.a. .
 There were present, with Gen. Cass, Messrs. Henry and Buchanan, nephews of the President-each formerly his privateI secretary, and on this occasion represent. ing the Presidents family Several car. riages of the Presidents s. together with three secretaries, Toucey, Cobb, Thompson and Cass, and Lord Lyons, were in waiting to convey the party to the White House. g. Lord Renfrew went thither, in company with Gen. Cass, Lord Lyons and the Duke Of Newcastle. Upon arriving at the man. sion where the President was in waiting to receive him, he was presented to him by Gen. Cass, and received cordial welcome. , Lord Lyons then performed the cerem ony of introducing the suite. As the proceed ings were private, the gates, of the Presi- dents grounds were closed against ,intru- sion, and attended by police officers. It is noticeable fact that Gen. Cass, who, un- der the theory of the British constitution. was born British subject, his nativity being before the treaty of peace, received the Prince in the name of the President; besides he was present at the coronation of the Princes mother.
