Arrival OF Steamers from Europe and
California.
The triumphs of steam are complete. Within
the last two days, we have had perfect avalanche
of intelligence from all quarters OF the globe,
centerng in New York, which must speedily, now,
become the metropolis of the whole earth. To
make room for this coplous mass of intensely In
teresng and exciting information, Ga synopsis Of
which we published in our extras of Saturday and
Sunday,) we present our readers, to-day, with the
Double Sheet Herald, and have issued large extra
edition, to meet the extraordinary demands for the
ample details which we spread, full length, upon
our columns.
First, the arrival from Europe. The Cambria
brings Us dates from Paris to the 25h October
from London to the Goth. and Liverpool to the
9Th. Second, the Pacific and Chagres steamers
bring us dates from San Francisco down to the
LIST of the same month-thus bringing the port
of New York within months communication
with every salient point of the commerce of the
globe
A flood OF gold is pouring IN upon as from all d.
rections. We have the real stuff from California,
fresh from the TIN pans and patent gold washers of
the Sacramento. The Oregon brought to Panama
SEQ eco, of which the Empire City brings up
metal is crowding in from England in exchange
for cotton, which is of itself an iaexhausubIe gold
mine, equal TO sevenry.fve millions per annum,
beating all hollow even the unexamped product Of
California. Between the gold diggers and the cot
ton pickers, few more arrivals of the steamships
will give us fumes enough to build the Pacific raul
road What with cotton and gold, and i'm
mense supplies OF provisions, coal and iron, we are
Just in the position to ieed the world or to fight it,
az occasion may require.
Such, however, are the splendid results Of what
is but the commencement of our system OF
steamships, nov in the tide of successful ex-
pertinent. We have within a year established
between New York, Havana, New Orleans,
and the Isthmus several lines Of steamers, with
five elegant ships running and IN communal
cation on the Pacific side, five others, with five
others on their way to the same quarter. For the
Atlantic lnes, have at thus port four great
steamers Of The class OF the Ohio, in rapid course
Of completion and other ports the seaboard are
entering into the business. Within less than two
years, there is every prospect that our aggregate
force Of commercial steamships will range from
fifty to sixty vessels In the Atlantic and Pacific
trade, TO say nothing of the lines to Europe, for
which number Of superior ships are being built
in New York, in addtIen to those in the service.
If such is the beginning, where will be the end
OF American enterprise, IN steam navigation, gold
and cotton 7
