The New Steam Line to Europe
Tho necessity of keeping Philadelphia in
tho foreground as a commercial, as well as a
great manufacturing place, locally fitted to be
the cutreptit of the United States, is admitted
upon all sides. Wu have not knowingly ne
glected any opportunity of impressing this fact
upon the public mind, and we have the satisfac
tion of learning that our advocacy of Phila
delphian interests has been appreciated by
the merchants, traders, shippers, importers,
and manuflicturers of, and connected with,
this vast city. • More than once, in this re
lation, we have spoken favorably of the propo
sition, now tinder way, of establishing a lino
of swift steamers between this port and Eu
rope, with the prospective extension of the
communication to California.
Captain HENRY RANDALL;NYIIO is bringing
hia skill and experience, as navigator and as
shipbuilder, to bear upon this subject; is identi
fied with the application of steam, as a ship
propelling power, upon those groat inland seas,
the Lakes in our Northern States. On Lake
Erie, he built the first boat, 218 feet long—
which was nearly 70 feet longer than up to that
thne, it was considered safe to attempt. He
was charged with presumptuously attempting
to bridge Lake Erie. There are now boats 350
feet long plying on that Lake, and in Detroit
and all the towns on its borders, which his
enterprise has helped to build up, lie is called
the Napoleon of ship-building and ship-cont-
mantling. Upon saltwater, too, he has had no
small experience, having built and ran the
steamer Yankee Blade, which he took round
Cape Horn, through the Straits of Magellan,
accomplishing that voyage from New York to
Panama in forty-ono days.
His,proposition, which has been fairly placed
before the trade and conunorce of this city, is
to establish a line of passenger and freight
steamers between this city and Europe. By
means of a shareholding association, now in
course of formation here, he would build a
steamer 480 feet keel, 500 feet long, 58 feet
beam, and of the capacity of 8,000 tons. She
would have berths for 2,600 persons—accom
modating first class, second class, arid steer
age or emigrant passengers. One third of
this number would pay good profits, and
there need be no doubt that the rupply of
passengers would be great and constant—the
prices being $lOO for first _class, $5O for se
cond, and $25 for steerage berths. The liv
iug on board would be on the-plan of an Eu
ropean hotel, and the calculated average of
each voyage would be within eight days, as
the ship, en the plan laid down by Captain
It.txmo,L, would run about twenty miles an
hour in even tolerable weather. Such a ves
sel could additionally carry from two to three
thousand tons of freight. It is intended to
build her in Philadelphia, where coal, iron,
wood, and labor are more available than in any
port, and to make her and keep her a Philadel
phia vessel, running from the Delaware termi
nus of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad,
whatever part of the city that may be at, di
rect to her destined port and back. In short,
such a. line as this would be a carrying out of
the Railroad, beyond the utmost anticipations
of the original proposers of that great artery of
internal communication.
This cannot be done without money. Al
ready a great many shares in the Philadelphia
and Crescent Philadelphia Navigation Compa
ny, (as it is called, from the Charter under
which it is firmed,) have been taken up, and
a Board of Directors duly elected, under the
provisions of the Charter, consisting of the
mitoiing - 'gentlemen :-31,errnzw W. itA.LD
'wo, UnAnizs MuMasTan, Gamins: H. STU
ART, J. EDGAR Tr/oast - ix,. and S. MORRIS
Esqs. The stocic promises to yield
such considerable profit, on the most mode
rato calculation, that it ought to be in great
request. The present capital is $300,000, and
we venture to say that had such a project been
laid before New York, this amount would have
been subscribed for in 4B hours.. Here it is
that the acknowledged difference between the
two cities lies. New York is go-ahead, while
Philadelphia is Comparatively
speaking, there is more solid, substantial
wealth in Philadelphia—while there is more
activity and enterprise in New York. _See
what advantages from a regular weekly sailing
between this city and Europe, a thousand pas
sengers, perhaps, coming and going in this
constant stream. If Philadelphia know her
true interest, she will cast her apathy aside,
and immediately supply the necessarynnionnt.
The example of conlidence given by the re
sponsihlo and wealthy Directory whose names
\se here have given should be an assurance of
the bona
,fidc character of the enterprise.

PEOCIRESS OF SOUND SENTIMENTS. One
thing is certain and apparent to the whole coun
try, says the Chicago Times—namely, that the
groat Northwest is a unit on the leading question
of the day—popular sovereignty in the Territories
The Democracy in every State in this quarter of
the Union ace distinctly and irrevocably committed
to the Douglas popular sovereignty doctrine ; they
stand immovably on that platform. It is here re
garded as sound Democracy to concede that the
people have political rights, and that those rights
belong as well to the people of the Territories as to
those of the States. Among the rights which the
people have by virtue of their relation to the go
vernment, is the right to decide for themselves
whether or not they will have slavery. The peo
ple of the Territories must, like Closed the States,
decide this matter for themselves. That is what
we believe hero in the Northwest. It is our cardi
nal principle as Democrats—a principle from which
springs, and has sprung, ever since political com
munities wore first organized on this continent, all
sound Demucratic sentiments.

When we arrived at North Fork village, in the
Creek Nation, our party divided, the larger portion
continuing on its march westward. I remained
behind for more than a fortnight. There was much
to bo seen of the Creek people in the trading
houses, and I will try to tell what I saw. It is
certainly mote agreeable to write of the Indiana
in a picturesque point of view, than to tell of their
indolence, their filth, and their degradation. In
the pictures which we have of them in the East
they are depicted upon gallant streeds careering
like the Arabs of the desert, bright feathers adorn
their brows, and gorgeous dresses float &taut their
The reality is different. Their ponies are
exceedingly diminutive, and their attire, if they
are fortunate enough to have any at all, is of the
most primitive description. hero is an Indian
store at North Fork. The owner of the goods is a
gentleman of fine culture, who, after reaping a
fortune In California, in the early days of the gold
fever, lost it nearly all in speculation upon his re
turn hones. Ilis assistants are slaves, who, brought
up in the nation, are thoroughly conversant with
the Creek language. When you go into the store
you are at ones in the midst of young and old of all
colors. Au old man of 70 of the slick skin class has
come to purchase an iron pot, some rope, and a lit
tle coffee, anti he chafers for half a day to obtain
them at as low a price as possible. A shawl of gay
colors affords him a turban, and deer skin the rest of
his dress. An old woman, of diabolical pbiz, and
almost nude, rides up astride her forlorn pony to
sell some old iron and watermelons in order to buy
many-hued calico. In the crowd Is a middle-aged
widow and her son. Both are well-dressed and
modestly-behaved. They have a large tract of
country under cultivation In corn, and having mo
ney, take away with them supplies of the comforts,
and many of the luxuries, of life. The negroes are
abundant—free and slave. They are the aristo
cracy of the town, and the women may be seen,
wonderful to relate, with hooped skirts, with dirty
faces, unkempt hair, no covering for their feet, and
always with n score or more of mangy curs. The
Baptist missionary bolts in, and soon he is greeted,
and orders what ho wants, and is again off to make
visits to those he knows. Then an express rides
by, and be gives the news to eager Inquirers. The
females are The bargainers principally. The Men,
when they come, want saddles, and something to
drink; they are careless what, so it burns as it
goes, and makes the drunk come soon. And this
crowd continues all day, enlivened with whoops, and
shrieks, and fights. Naked children run between
your legs, and tumble over everything without a
cry. In trying to stand heels up upon a counter,
they run risks frequently of breaking theirjure
nile necks.
An Indian cares more for a saddle than for
aught beside. Every year he Most have a new
one if he can. There is a tree of wood, and under
this a Smell blanket is strapped ; stirrupe of wood
of the Moorish fasbicirt,' sometimes with leather
covers in front; and there is iron enough in the
mouth of the little beasts they ride to set up a
mill or to split them, on an application of any phy
sical force. to where their Midi commence. The
entire machine, loaded with its living freight, is
kept in motion by the use of a Spanish spur, with
points like stilettos. Perhaps an ox skin will be
folded up and dangle at the side—this with the
blanket makes up the family bed.

Camp m eetings were in full blast during my
stay. These meetings bad their origin In the
Southwest, and nowhere probably are they more of
an institution. They are participated in by the
bettor class of Indians, but whilst they furnish ex
citement and an opportunity for vocal powers and
the display of gay dresses, nevertheless they do
not attract like au Indian deuce, or an Indian ball
play, or an „Indian festival. I will tell of these
Our first day out from - North Fork protisletid
well, bat Into in dot atuteroion we were caught Itf
the midst of a prairie by a terrible Storm of wind
'and rain. The wind had, full sweep at us, and It
was with labor only that our wagon was prevented
from being upset. The rain continued, and we
were fortunate enough, after dusk, to find an un
occupied log-cabin, where we could take shel
ter for the night. A good fire dispossessed
snakes and Ayes; but a portion of the roof
which had been torn off, after many gymnastic,
evolutions to start it, let in thi rain upon us in
torrents. The place had been so despoiled by pre
vious travellers, it might be doubted if we would
hove been any bettor if we had not done what we
did in order to get supper. For two days we
passed through rich meadow and woodland. The
grass had been burnt on some of the prairies, to se
cure fall pasture for the cattie,whieh everywhere in
bands and herds filled the plains. Already the
grass ?vatted up, although the prairies had been
on fire but a week or ten days previously.
I have read much in the Eastern papers of the
Aurora Borealis. We saw it whilst camped upon
the rise of a prairie that may have been the one
donated by Louis of France to Law, the author of
the Mississippi bubble, stated to be lying in the
Louisiana Territory, which included all this region.
for it was treeless and bounded only by the hori
zon. Our first impression was that it was a prairie
on fire, and we got in our horses ready to meet fire
with fire. It was as light es day, the sky was
blood red streaked with gold, but the ineffable
beauty of the whole scene is indescribable. We
bowed our hearts in profound worship of its divine
sublimity.

We have passed through a richer country than
any I. have yet seen. Grass and water can be bad
at almost all seasons of the year. A finer wine
growing land probably exists nowhere else. Vines
fill the wools and cover the meadow-land toward
the bottoms. Some of the vine trunks are a foot

trees, forming delightful shady bowers. Grapes

gather them yourself.

is possessed by a German prince palatine, and alt
he does with it is to raise corn enough to keep his
family upon starvation rations during the winter,
feed one or two ponies, and fatten some hogs. As
the travel grows westward, roads aro made and
settlements increase upon the western Arkansas
frontier; the speculatorscluster in the neighborhood
and watch for the chances. The Indian Territory,
upon the Arkansas, Canadian, and fled rivers, em
braces richer land than is in Kansas, and there are,
perhaps, fee spots in it that whites have not so

very satisfactory statement of the condition of that
corporation, and gives abundant proof that its ex

their duties with an Intelligence, prompt:mu, and
economy entitled , to the highest commendation. I
collate a few of the prominent facts and figures of
the report: During the year 1858. which brought dis
umr and ruin upon so many railroad companies of
the Country, this company not only kept up their an
al receipts. but, by a considerable diminution of en-
Penaes realized a larger net income than in any Drevi

pened to persona walking and riding on the tracks, and
in attempting to jump on and of the trains while in mo

c harged the ladies with over-dressing. Miss Flora
ldeFlimsey sends a letter in reply. We quote:
, t I call upon you first. sir, to look at me in my
ball dress; and I select that because it is supposed
that a woman in a ball dress is the costliest dressed
of all women. Sir, I have not clothes enough on,
as everybody can see, to keep a woman warm, to
say nothing of what propriety mud decency require.
There is not a beggar in New York who does not
go into the street with more clothes than I base
on; and yet you have the impudence to abuse me.
when r reiterate, with solemn troth, my Nothing
to Wear.' There is nothing on my arms; look at
them, sir. for you may as well look at them as say
other body in the street There is nothing on my
arms, from my wrists onward and unwanl, as you
can readily see. Eve herself, in Paradise. was
scarcely with less clothing than I hare here on these two arms. Then, there is nothing on my
neck, or next to nothing; and if a poor, humble
woman of this world can wear less on her shoulders
than I, the Belle Flora, wear, I should like to see
and aid the poverty of that hapless woman. My
robe is looped up over my shoulders; and hence
the neck, bust, arms, lc., that Clod blessed me with
when I came into the world, are just as he gave
them to me! New, !dr, if you do not blush when
you see this, or when I tell it, to you, all I can say
I s , blushing is departed, from man."
