THE AMERICAN MAILS.—LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY
ATTIIINOON.—The United States Mail steam ship, the
Atlantic, Captain James West, sailed from the Mersey for
New York, with the usual mails for the United States and
British North American posseasions, sixty-two amongst*,
and a full cargo of general merchandise on freight. Prior to
her departure, evies of the London miming journals of this
data were placed on board by Messrs. Winner and Smith,
of Liverpool, for the press and public institutions of the
United States and Canada. The British sad North Americas
Royal Mail Steam Ship (Cunard) Company ammo their

follow her.
THE NEW GIGANTIC STEAM-EMIP PERA, at South-
ampton, had a trial trip on Saturday, and her speed, under
steam only, was found to be 121 knots. Her engines are
considered small for her magnitude, but her beautiful build
oompensates for this and "sables her to attain a very high
speed. Under canvas her speed will be immense. Such
is the perfection of her lines that, though her screw is a
three-fanned one, she steers while seder canvas as easy as a
sailing ship. Ia igh screw stamen generally, while under
canvas, the thus posted at different eagles act as serious im-
pediments te steerlag. A number of scientific men were oa
board the Pen on her trial trip, and pronounced her one of
the very Inset ships afloat. She is steered from telegraph
signals plated on the ammader's bridge, and these signals
render any oral communiation between the captain and
helmsmen unnaseeary by day or night—a matter et very
peat importance, considering the great tooth of the ship.
