She was then out twenty. and such were the fears for her safety, tl writers refased'to take risks on’ her for less than 4wenty-five per cent. Weatill believe hertobe safeenough. Weare actin the least alarmed, and are ef opinion that if she sailed on her day, she has met with strong west- erly gales,which bave kept her back several days. Andeven if she does not arrive at Boston till to- day or ‘to-morrow; there need be no anxiety re- specting her. It should be recollected that the Great Western—well kuowa for ber quick and re- gular tripe—was once twen! y-four days in making a Niektars paledgs, This is on record, but was be- fore the melancholy loss of the President. As that steam ship went down in a gale, every one will hhetcafier be on the “‘tenter hooks’? of alarm whenever a steam ship should be a few hours ‘over dne.”* } NWe eball expect to receive her news some time ‘to-day. So look out for an Extn, Henatp. ‘Fhe Expected Arrival of Lerd Ashburton— ‘The Dispute with Mngland, ‘Asthe time draws near for the arrival of Lord Ashburton, the special envoy from England, amonget ws, (who may be'expected hourly) the thoughts of aleaest every one are turned to the important and eomplicated questions in dispute between the gov- erament of Great Britain and this country, And among the very foremost of these matters, is the Boundary Question. We have no doubt, whatever, im our owe minds, that amongst his other instructions, Lord Ashburton will come charged to propose certain defiaite terms of settlement in relation tothe Beundary Question ; and we have'as little doubt, but that these terms will be the finatoffer made by Great Britainto our government on this important, matter, What the ature of those terms may be, of course, we can tout conjecture ; but this we do know, that the legis- fateres of Maine and. Massachusetts, as well as Congress, should be prepared to take some speedy and decisive legislative action on the subject ; with a view to an immediate, honorable, and amicable arrangement of the whole affair. : With this view of the matter, we are delighted to fiad that Governor Davis has sent a message to the Massachusetts Legislature, calling their attention to this important subject ; in which message, we find the following clear and manly view taken of the matter :— We have sufficient evidence that Great Britain deems the possession of a portion of the territory west of the treaty line, of the greatest importance to her, to facilitate antec course betweeu her provinces ;—we feel alto, as if ahe could not resist with violeace the demonstrative Goutal ie afore, 1x’ carey ing out. her wishes, « Shek carry! ol or wishes, dbatone alterastive-which is, to enforce, it can, hi tel a against right, 0 propose a ome Doped yundary. Thshe takes the latter course, it must be founded on an equivalent for any concessiva made for her accommodation, and that equivalent mast be satisfactory to Maine, which holds the right of State Jarindiction, ‘and one moiety of the soil; to Massacha- ‘setts, which holds the other meiety of the soil; and to the United Statea, which hold the power of negotiation and settlement ; for wecen acknowledge no constitu. tienal right to transfer territory and jurisdiction with- @ut the assent of the States interested. ‘Without any evidence of coming events beyond pro- béadility, {| have thought such a contingency so likely to eccur, that I could not reconcile it with my oy. to eave it unprovided fer. Ihave therefore brought it to pear consideratien, not because | donbt the character of “eur title to the territory, or because | would invite terms ef compromise which world in’ @ a voluatary sur gender ef what bi 3 to us, owld imply any un- eertaiaty as toour resolute determination to maintain our wights, but that provisions may be made for making ‘known the sentiments of the commonwealth, in case ‘term s of compromise shall be discussed with a view to & eettiement. The sentiments of Maine and the United States are unknown to me, except a1 disclosed to the public; but I donot view it as an impossibility that teres may be proposed which will meet she approbation cal beth, and it is for this event I would have the com- moa wealth prepared—' ay assert and vindicate j aodat ie do whatever is con- ania: wit hie to pr amicable adjustment of the controversy. This is the true view of the case. The right to the disputed territory is clearly on our side ; and if Euglaad wanis it, she must give us such aa equiva- Tent as will satisfy not only Maine and Massachu- setts, but the whole country. 1a this way the long dispated and trowbleseme Boundary Question can be set attest forever. And, that disposed of, we can easily vettle all he minor questions’ in dispute swith the mother country. Since Lord Aberdeen dhas virtually abandoned the ;right of search in his Jast letter to Mr. Stevenson, we await the arrival of Lord Ashburtoa with no little interest.

Da, Morr Lites tHe Unveapens.— Whatever ulterior designs may be thought to have influenced some of their leaders, the history of the erasaders presents no feature, in our opinion, to impugn the motives, or to question the enthusiasm of that hely zeal, which spread with electric fire through every rank and condition of Christendom, from the nn- daunted Caur de Lion down te the mest humble eubaltern. The unspeakable sufferings they endu- red, to recover the tomb of Chri the posses- sion of the Saracen, and the readiness and willing- hess with which, im order to effect this hallowed object, even the wealthiest and most noble aban- doned the luxuries of home and all the endearments of wife, children, and kindred, to shed their blood on Syria’s sande, in the holy service of the Lord, are incontestable proofs of (he sincerity and purity ‘of their intentions.

Morr Feers Uncomronr —On our at rival at Syra, we found there would not be any con- veyance to Athens for seven days,aethe regular boat had left the evening before. A Greek prince who came on with us from Malta being as anxious as ourselves to get onto Athens, undertook to pro- cure fer that purpose a suitable conveyance for us all.
