AMERICA AND THE PACIFIC.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE EXPRSEL

Sir,—lt is very humiliating to us as Britons to find
that the Yankees have made Galway. steam-packet station.
I told our government in January last that unless they im•
mediately decided on making it such Brother Jonathan
would do so for them. Our capitalists must now take up
the matter. British America and a railway through it to
the Pacific Ocean should now be the meet absorbing ques-
tion with us if we desire to maintain our supremacy in the
Pacific. Unless we immediately decide on making this
railway, Brother Jonathan will settle that matter also for
us, by making a similarrailway through the United
States.—l am, air, yours, tic., As ENOLICUMAN.—June 20,

THREE ADDITIONAL STEAMERS are about to be
put on the line of
_packets running between Liverpool,
Southampton, and Havre.

EXTRAORDINARY OFFENCE.—At the Melton Mow-
bray County Court, held on the Bth instant, William Un-
derwood, farmer, of Gaddesby, broaght an action against
James Messenger, farmer, of the same place, and Benjamin
Buxton, his servant, for scattering a quantity of charlock or
kedlock seed, amongst the plaintiff's wheat, growing in a
field called Date-hill, containing five acres, and immedi-
ately adjoining the and of Messenger. on the 27th of
February plaintiff went to this field with his son, for
the purpose of railing it. He discovered that it
lad recently bias sera all over with charlock. There were
footmarks up sad lowa each land. He noticed marks where
a sash sad • beam had evidently been set, and the hopper
appeared to have had two holes in the bottom, as there were
two little beeps ar seam et said within the impression
of the hopper. Phiatiff immediately secured the assist-
awe of Wrenn, as stave sad Intelligent police.constablc,
steamed at Frisby, who took Buxton to the field, and com-
pared, bapressions hem his shess with the footmarks there.
They sloeely corresponded, and there were other singular
adacidences, to to show that Buxton was the guilty
piety; it
aot appeared also that on the night of the leth, Box"
