The efforts of the American government to perpetuate the exist- and recure the free action of this political safety have been commensurate in success, not less irit, with the necessities of the case. Taken with the previourly vacant territories of the United States proper. we may say that the annexation of Texas, the acquisitions from Mexico, and the awards in Oregon, bave placed ut the disposal of the authorities at Washington, tract of land at least twice as spacious as the whole presently inhabited portion of their pos- sessions. In fact, taking the whale breadth of the con- tinent, from the Atlantic to the Pacite, between the Oth and Ith parallels, as representing the present do- minions of the United States of America, it would be substantially correct to say, that the whole space west of the Misrcurt, or, in other words, two-thirds of ths entire territory, is yet uutenanted, and lies in reser for the caprices or necersities of generations to com It ie particularly instructive to observe with what summary avd buriness-like promptitude, every acre of thie avcdmuated property is secured in the govern- went stores, and stamped as it were with the mational wark, forthe undetermined purposes of the ‘nation. Already that coast, to the capabilities of which we reem to pay such little heed, has been brought within eall of Waebington, and the ports of the Pacific will be kept well in hand by a cabinet sitting on the shores ofthe opposite ocezn. A line of mail steamers is forth- with to run between New York and New Orleans; at New Orleans it will join a second line from that port to Chagres, on the Isthmus cf Panama; from the Isth- mer a third line of steamers will traverse the Pacific | to-and from the Columbia River. treaties is scarcely dry, and yet, in January next, the md regular communication between New York cn, Will be fuch as, at this time last year, hed not been established between London “and Ascension, The Americans want no sharesmen in their operations.

There is this peculiar interest attached to these transactions on the American continent—that we there sce in actual operation the course of those events cf vbich in our own world, we can only read. We may look st the North America of 1848 as at the North- ern Burope of a thousand years before, and inay watch with our own eyes the territorial settlement of a con- tinent, There are the Spaniards of the Isthmus, the rival Saxore jn the centre, the Slavonians in the north-western angle, and a powerful element of Celts interspersed. We may inagine a new race of Franks establishingitecl{ in a Transatlantic Gaul ; a new co- Jony of slaves struggling up toa new Po new swarm of finns settling upon a new heve civilized, instead of barbarous, races to deal w and therein consists the whole difference, With ¢ variation, we may fix our speculative eyes upon a con- tinent of which the distribution and occupation is as uncertain and fortuitous as that of Europe in the cays of Charlemagne. ‘There may be one empire or two, of one or twe races, or there may be kingdoms or republiee innumerable. “Nobody can yet calculate the members of the American family, when the partition and tenancy of the continent shall be at length com- plete, The interest felt in such a prospect as this is not diminished by the cons to which our ovn nationalgcredit is involved. half of this vast territory we have at least p rights, andit is indeed g that the inst ike company to which so umportant a tenancy should be introduced to generel notice. 1t should not be overlooked, that our retaining portion in these postessions is mainly deficient in those very advan- tages which we have recently proposed to bargain away. ‘The immense tract of British North America has on the Pacific but a very inadequate proportion of sea- board.

Srransmie Henamakn —We beg to refer to a letter from our Southampton correspondent, giving @ full ac_ count of the accident to this splendid sh'p, whileon her last paseage to England. The following short, but epirited and complimentary letter, was addressed. to Captain Crabtree, by the passengers:— Carvaiw E. Caapinee:— Sir: We, the passengers on board the Hermann, cannot leave your poble ship without testifying so you the “pleasure and satis! ion which we have all joyed on board. ‘Yost of us bave made frequent passages across the Atlantic, both i wers and sailing packets, during the past ten years. and we can troly say that we have never before met with a vessel that combined, in so high a degree, a) the requisites of safety, speed, ease of movement. cleanliness, comfort and luxurious living, which, with the kind « gentlemanly deportment ourself and officers, have rendered the passage more Seeeacieas of pleasure than otherwise, notwith- standing the strong head winds during the first five days of the passage. Sreamsuir Uniren Stares.—In conseq uence of the unfertumate detention of this vessel, her owners are under the necessity of withdrawing her from the con- templated New Orleans voyoge. A list of the passen- gers that were on board, when she left Southampton on the 84, will be found in anothercolumn. She would leave for New York about the first week ia Ostober.— Our Southampton correspondent, in a letter published in to-day’s paper, enters into most of the interesting particulars concerning tho accident, and although some four weeks will be occupied in repairing the defect, many of the passengers have determined to re- main that time, as the extract from u private letter which we annex, will show:— Sournamrron, 911 Moxrs, 7, 1848, ‘We sailedfrom Cowes at 10 minutes past 4in the afternoon of First Day the 3d inst., under the most fa- yorable auspices, aud in nineteen hours we were to the westward of the Isles of Scilly, makin, run in that time of about 240 miles. when the engineer discovered a defect in the condenser. A meeting of the engineers and officers was at once held, at which Pwas present and after deliberate consideration it was their unite opinion that the ship should go vack to Southampton. ‘A meeting of the passengers was then called, and the: situation of the ship clearly stated to them, when, on consideration, they unanimously came to the same conelusion. to go back. This situation of things, thou wilt naturally conclude is great disapp ointment to allon board, and by no means least 89 t sider it nowmy duty to say a word for that he has behaved in the most throughout, not only to his passengers, but to his ship- and Lisowners, He hasbeen faithful to. their inter- ests. The passengers held a meeting last evening for the purpore of giving an expression of their views om foraing Edition, ‘Herald com- Pani “ke minrion beture minutes State of Kurope. Our readers will find in to-day’s paper a large mass of foreign intelligence, received at this office by the steamship Acadia, and a portion of our ex- tensive correspondence from all parts of Europe; the remainder of which we shall publish, from day to day, in instalments, until the whole shall have been laid before them. The European continent isin any but a settled condition. Indications are apparent of a series of struggles, eruptions and convulsions occurring, before that quarter of the world will be as pacific or composed as it was before the breaking out of the French revolution. A general war is by no means improbable. Although by some it is sup- posed that the acceptance, by Austria, of the medi- ation of France and England, in the Italian diffi- culty, willset that matter at rest, [ts supposed, on the other hand, that this mediation was not agreed to in good faith, but merely for the purpose of delay, in order to recruit and gather renewed energy for striking a decisive blow, which will crush the Italian cause, and fetter that beautiful country for perhaps half a centary. If the latter supposition 18 correct, much trouMfe is brewing, and it 1s justified, to a certain extent, by the intel- ligence which we have received of the landing of four thousand French troops in Venice. This cer- tainly looks as if France had »9 confidence in the willingness of Austria to suymit the Italian question to mediation, and intimates a determina- tion to interfere by force between the two powers. If this be the upshot of )in-"natter, then the danger of a great warts immifcaf, By the next steamer, we shall probably get a colution.af the difficulty.— England approves of this armed intervention, but her doing so does not amount to much, one way vr the vier, She cannot, very well, oppose the new republic in anything, at least at present; but if the domestic difficulties in France, of which we have come inkling by the steamship, end as it was feared they would—that is, in the defection of the National Guards, the great bulwark of the new republic—and there be a reasonable probability of anarchy succeeding, to the accomplishment of which England has no doubt exerted herself in a secret and underhand manner, she will not then | be found so ready to join France in her movements. The difficulty we refer to is certainly one of mo- ment, according to present indications, and we shall look with much anxiety for the result. The Schleswig Holstein question has assumed again a warlike shape. The armistice of seven months has been disagreed to, and the probability is, that hostilities will again break out. Almost every other part of Europe is in commo- tion; in fact, the whole continent resembles a boiling cauldron, and changes that will affect its destiny, perhaps for all time to come, are in embryo. The commercial accounts from Europe, by the steamer Acadia at Boston, although but one week | later than those received by the Europa at this | port, are much more favorable, and, on the whole, | exceedingly satisfactory. The fine weather re- ported in all parts of the United Kingdom, produc- ed a wonderful effect in the corn market, and prices | fell off full as much as they had advanced during the speculative movement, caused by the wet weather of the latter part of August. From the manufacturing districts we continue to receive | more favorable accounts, and it the harvests are safely secured and the yield proves a fair average, we may look for a healthy and decided improve" | ment in that branch of industry. In financial affairs no change of any importance had taken place. Consols fluctuated a fraction, from day to day, as political intelligence from the continent came to hand, but the closing pricesrang” ed a little below those current in the early part of the week. No alteration had been made in the rate of mterest by the management of the bank, and although the demand for money was more active, it was not supposed any advance would be de- clared. For reasons, which had not at the departure of the steamer transpired, the Bank of France had omitted its usual weekly report. According to the last returns, there had: been a steady increase in the amount of bullion on hand, and a general improve vient im all the other leading departments ; and we cannot believe that the omission of the weekly report was caused by an unfavorable change 1n the affairs of the bank. It may be that the necessity for weekly exhibits having passed away, they will not longer be made. Great Destrvction oF Lirk ann Prorerty.— ‘The severe hurricane which passed over this city in the early part of this month, and felt so sensibly along our coast, has, by all accounts, proved most disastrous to shipping and property through the West India islands. We have already stated, in brief, the destruction of Antigua, St. Kitts, and other places in the Gulf.
