Wasurxctos, Oct. 6, 1860. The Visit of the Prince! of Wales to Washington—His Visi to the President Gives Him Unalloyed Satisfaction— Graceful Vivacity and Good Humor of His Royal High ness—The Visit to Mount Vernon—The Preliminary Ceremonies—Trip Down the Potomac—The Prince Ex- presses His Admuration of the River Scenery—He Acts as Coxswain of One of the Outer Lane's Boats in Landing— Trip Back to the Washington Arsenal—Departure for Richmond, dec. , éc. ‘The viait of the Pricce of Wales tothe President -will constitute an epoch in the history of Great Britain as well as the United States. His Royal Highness, and also the distinguished noblemen and gentlemen of his suite, declare that, from the beginning to the end, im all its circumstances, it gave to the Prince the most unalloyed satisfaction, His sojourn at the executive mansion secured for him all the privacy ‘tbat was desirable, and more than might reasonably Dave been expected, ring the quite natural and excusable curiosity of the public to look upon the heir apparent of the British crown, and the personal interest which bis whole deportment since his arrival in America has been flited to impart. While the two days were in- dustriously spent in sight seeing, the banquets aud recep- tions in the evenings gave him opportunities of meeting and conversing at ease, not ouly with officers of the government and the diplomatic representatives of foreign nations, but with many cultivated persons of both sexes, who dignify and adorn the general society of the federal metropolis. It is universaily conceded that im all these respests the arrangements of the President and Miss Lane could not have been improved. As to the youthful Prince himself, ail who approached him, as weil ‘ag those who enjoyed the.pieasure of unrestrained inter. course with him, could not fail to be impressed with the frank affability and high bred courtesy that characterize bis address, whether in public or private. Many pleasing instances of the graceful vivacity and good humor of his private conversation are current in social circles; and it cannot be doubted that.the remembrance of these qual.ties will caugze him to be regarded with permanent interest and attachment by all classes of the American poopie. By far the most interesting day to the Prince aud his suite was that on which he was conducted to Mount Ver- non by the President of the United States, accompanied by all the members of the Cabinet. The sidewalks along the whole line of progress, from the” executive mansion to the Arsenal, where the party embarked, were filled by crowds of both sexes who saluted the royal guest as he passed with respectful grectings, which he courteously acknowledged. The embarkation on the reverss cutter Harriet Lane was marked by the same faultless arrange- ments which distinguished. all the other proceedings. ‘The beautiful craft was In perfect trim, and ber gallant officers, as wel! as the commandant of the Arsenal, left nothing undone on their part that could coutribate to the convenience and gratification of the party. The voyage down the Potomac, with the quiet beauty of the Maryland acd Virginia shores in sight, was delight. fully exhilaratiog. The weather was as fay: aS po sible, the sun's rays being hid by* light , and a gentle breeze ahead just suiliciently tempering the atmos. phere. Tho Prince mingled freely with the ladies and gentiemen on board, manifesting a cordial interest in every incident of importance, and repeatedly expressing admiration of the scenery. Owing to the shallowness of the river near Mount Vernon, the party went ashore in the launches of the cutter; and the first boat, containing the Presicent and Miss Lane, was stecred by his Royal Highness, who, as might have been expected fom a thorough bred Uxonian, proved himself quite an expert im the management of the tiller, Thi incideat of the Pripce dirceting the picuace that bore the American chief magistrate to the burial place of Washington did not escape the notice of the inglish -visiters any more than |he Americans who witnessed it. Nearly two hours were spent in surveying, under the guidance of Mr. Riggs, the Treasurer of the Mount Vernoum Associxasen, and of Col. John A. Washington, the diferent localitics, and all that pertained to the departed patriot, The royal party remained for some time in the chamber where Washington died, acd the Prince inquiret miautely con- corning: Moen es page th the Iast hours and closing scenes of life Upon reterning from the gar- dion the Prince plantet a borse chestaut ina slightly els right of the La and also sccepted previous Here the Marice Bard performed, v visit lo the grave with fine effect, a requiem and several dirges, while the Prince, leaning on the iron railings near to the 'Presileat, both uncovered, as weil ag were the whole party, seomed absorbed with Lneieling® which the occasion was cal- culated to produce. it was indeed a spectacle of me- moreble impressivences, and woul! furaich a poble snb- ject for the pencil of the greatest painter, or the pen of the loftiest poet of any age.
