AMERICAN STEAMsHIPs.-The ocean steamers
which are in progress of erection at New York are
thus noted in the Evening Post:
Within year, five of the largest steamships in
the world will be sent to sea. The two in the
greatest state of fOrwardness are the Ohio and
Georgia, belonging TO the New Orleans and Cha
gres mail line, on which Messrs. Law, Sloo. and
ether parties are contractors, These ships are
shaped upon the most beautiful model vet adopted
in the construction Of any steamship. Their capa-
city is stated TO be 1850 tons each. Larger than
even these are the two ships building under the
contract for the conveyance of the mail between
New York and Liverpool, held BY Mr.. T.. X Col
Inns, the Atlantic and Pacific, which are now re.
ceiving their engines at the works of Suman o.
Allen, and Allaire d Co. These ships are rated at
over three thousand tons each, and will be capable
in the opinion Of their constructor, of carving a
greater number Of passengers, and more freight
than any ships ever built, not excepting the PFes-
dent and Great Britain. Another very large Ship
that soon be fitted for sea SERVICE is the Frank
lin, of twenty-five hundred tons. Her model is
very fine one, and appears adapted to the attain
ment Of great speed. She was commenced by the
proprietors of the Bremen line, but is said to have
been transferred to Messrs. Fox d Livingston, who
design placing her upon the route to Havre VIA
Southampton.
Besides these, four other steamers of the largest
class under contract, and will be built as soon
as practicable. Two of them will belong 10 Col
Inns line, and will be of the same tonnage as the
Atlantic and Pacific. One of them, the Arctic, is
nearly ready for launching. Here, therefore, is to
be fleet of nine steamers, which, for size and
costness, will exceed any yet brought into service
on this or the other side of the ocean, Their fail
ure or success will depend in great degree upon
the care and skill with which their engines ara
constructed, upon the manner in which the ma.
chinery shall be adjusted TO this hulls of the ships
and upon the completeness Of the preparations in
the engineers departments, before the vessels at
tempt their first passages.

WHEELING BRIDGE CAsE.-We learn from the
Philadelphia papers, that in the u s. Circuit Court
Judge Grier, one of the Justices of the Supreme
Court of the United States, has delivered an opin-
ION on the motion for an injunction in the case of
the State of Pennsylvania Us. the Wheeling Bridge
Company. He held; /" l. That the Wheeling
bridge Is not such as was authorized by its char
Ter q That the Company are bound strictly by
thelr charter, and cannot subject navigatOrs 10
trouble, expense, delay. II no excuse that the
ehcroachment upon navigation is a small encroaCh-
ment, or little nuisance, is the additional cost
ana expense of properly constructing the Bridge
any excuse. 3. That the State of Virginia
has not authorized this Bridge, she is not neces-
sary party 10 this proceeding. 4. That the pres
ent application is not too late, because there was
no reason to anticipate that the defendants would
violate their charter. 5. That the right of the
State of Pennsylvania to proceed for an Injunction
against a nuisance to her citizens without her own
territory, is new question; but if she could not.
on that ground, yet by reason of the injury TO her
own public works, it is probable she may proceed
IN this Court 6. That the question being new,
and involving jurisdiction, an Injunction will not
now be granted, because the injury apprehended is
not Imminent and irreparable before the sitting OF
the Supreme Court; the Company and its indi-
Vldual members are liable for all damages that NAV
ne done, and they will gain no advantage BY DELAY
IoT II decree goes against them they will have 10
Jake Inc bridge down at their own expense. The
cause VIII have precedence on the list, and on the
nrst monday Of December, the complainant will
nave an opportunity of moving the Court for an in
junction on bill and answer.

Mr.. FORREST. - The Philadelphia Pennsyl-
vanlan has the following statement in regard to a
paragraph which has been going the rounds re-
speeIlng difficulty between Mr.. Forrest and some
intruders upon his grounds:
1t IS curious to see how constantly and bitterly
ths gentleman is prosecuted and misrepresented by
portion Of the Press. A late instance occurs, in
lhe account Of fray that took place between him
ana t'0o sporlsmen from the city Of New York, on
ms iarm in Westcheser county, in which it is said
he was worsted. The allegation is that they came
10 look at his buildings and grounds, and were
ordered on by the proprietor, in default Of which
ne attacked them, and got the worst of the battle
I'M, Inc JactS, as we have heard them, are, that
theTe was only one, instead of two of these Gotham
coGkneys He was armed with his fowling piece,
aaq MT Forrest admonshed him to be careful not
10 hre, as he would injurs some Of the wOrkmen, of
Wnom There was a number in the vicinity. The
fellow impudently replied that he would shoot as
soon as he had an opportunity He was then
ordered from the place, and failing to do so, he
was chastised as he deserved. Out Of this incl
dent an insidious ialsehood of the most infamous
Character has been Manufactured by some Of the
New York papers,"

MINING IN CALFoRHIA.-A company has been

shares of 800, for the purpose of conducting mi

Bell, which is supposed to afford peculiar facilities
for working the beds of rivers and deep water.
The accounts thus far received from California
speak very unfavOrably of the machines that have
been carried TO the mines. Persons coming to the
mines are cautioned by those now in California
against encumbering themselves with machines
and implements which prove utterly useless after
all the expense of transportation.
