Tlie Boys nre divided into two wntchcs, one watr.ii atten ding school, while the other is employed in the or dinary duties of file ship. They thus attend school every"other day. Their schoolmaster, Who, by tho way is very capable, having been a public teacher in the United State*, reports favorably of their at tention mid improvement. They will, I think, ob tain us good no education as hoys generally get at our public school*. They uro taught rending, writing, arithmetic, na vigation nnd composition; some specimens of the latter, which have been shown to me, written by tlie elder Iroys, wore really very creditable to the writer.
