The Simbuty Canal Company affords an abun dance of water power, that can hardly be equal led in Pennsylvania. Surrounded, as we are, with Coal, Iron and Limestone, no better lo cation can be had for manufactories of various kinds. The immense water power of the Canal Company, which has the North and West branch es of the Susquehanna for a feeder, is admirably adapted for rolling mill and other machinery, requiring great power, at a cheap rate. But even where steam power is preferred, we have many superior advantages iu the cheapness of fu el. For instance, Shamokin Coal, and there is none better for making good iron, can be deli vered at this place at ?1,')0 per ton. At Potts ville, Coal is Worth $2.2.') per ton at the landing. At Harris-burs Cnv. Torter pays 52.10 per ton, for his Coal, and will conume, in his furnaces, a- bout $12,000 tons per annum. The difference hi price, between this place and Ifarrisbntg. is just 00 -ts. per ton. or flO.MtO in the amount required per annum, in favor of this place; a very hand some income of itnelf. As records the differ ence between this place and Pottsville, the sav ing would be $'.1,000 per annum, on the same a mount ol Coal. In regard to iron ore and lime stone, our advantages are fully equal, if tint supe rior to either of the two plares.

The Dublin Freeman's Journal holds the fob lowing language respecting the present difficul ties between England and America. It is some what different in its positive and relative retal iations from other British authorities : "The receding of England from the pos'tion she had taken about Texas is deeply significant, and history may hereafter use it to mark the point at which the flood of her fortune began to ebb. America is no ordinary power. Her great est strength can be put forth upon England's own ocean domain. A quarttr of a century ago, when England was supposed capable of annihi lating the little marine of America by a single stroke of her fin anil the relative dimensions of their navies justified the supposition Hip young er nation seized the knife between her teeth, dashed to meet her enemy on her enemy's own element, and many a ponting vein of the mon ster of the seas ciimsoned the deep on which they struggled. "America is better grown now. Her com mercial navy cover every sea, and in it quali ties leaves all rivalry far behind. Great as have been her advances in population and in wealth, her progress in commerce ha far ou'stridden these. The maratime strength of nations is no longer measured by counting their ships of war. but bv sounding the depths of that source w hence the military marine is to be supplied their com mercial navies.

It is amusing to read these diatribes of the London paper, and see how little they know of the spi rit, enthusiasm and unanimity of the American people w hen war is talked of.
