PROGRESS OF OUR CouNTRY.-Prof. Greasy,
the able occupant Of the chair of ancient and
modern history in the University Of London,
thus refers to this country in terms that Go
credit to its liberali:y:
"By the fourth great power Of the world !
mean the mighty commonwealth Of the west
ern continent, which now commands the ad-
mira,ion Of mankind. That. homage is some
times reluctantly given, and is sometimes ac-
companied with suspicion and i'll will. But
none can refuse it. All the physical essentials
for national strength are undeniahIy to be
found in the geographical position and ampli-
tude Of territory which the United States pos
sess; in their almost inexhaustible tracts of
fertile, but hitherto untouched soil, in their
stately forests, in their mountain-chains and
rivers, their beds Of coal, and stores of metallic
wealth, in their extensive seaboatd aaong the
waters of two oceans, and in their already nu-
4merous and rapidly increasing population.
And when we examine the character Of this
population, no one can look on the fearless en-
efgy,, the sturdy determination, the aptitude for
local sslfgovernment, the versatile alacrity,
and the unceasing spirit Of enterprise which
characterize the Anglo Americans, without
feeling that here he beholds the true elements
Of progressive might.
Nothing is more calculated to impress the
mind with a sense Of the rapidity which the
RESOURCES of the American republic advance
than the difficulty which the historical inquirer
finds in .ascertaining their precise amount.
If he consults the most recent works, and
those written by the abIest investigators ofthe
subject, he finds in them admiring comments
on the change which the last few years, before
those books were written, had made; but, when
he turns to apply the estimates 10 those books
to the present moment, he finds them fully in
adequate. Before a book on the subject of
the United States has lost its novelty, those
States have outgrown the description which it
contains"

The GhrIstisna Murder.

The american Telegraph" OF yesterday evening
states that the country adjacent to this place continues in
an excited state Arrests continue to be made The only
white person appr.he thus far isl Quaker named
Ioseph Mourse, who was brought before the commits
soner charged with giving counsel and aiding IN the
escape OF some Of the suspected parties, who were al
forwards arrested, and testified against him He was
bound over to appear at the circuit court oil Philadelphia
in The sum Of four thousand dollars
The prosecuting attorney Of the county has posse on
the ground and all arrested by that party are claimed by
them "a the murderers or parcipators Those confined
at Lancaster will have hearing forthwith before Judge
ewis on a writ of habeds corpus and should any be
discharged, Marshal Roberts will arrest them on a
charge Of treason and they will be removed at once TO
Philadelphia.
Young Gorsuch, on Monday evening, appeared to be
very weak bu, his physicians Drs Atee OF Lancaster,
and Patterson Of Chrstana, had strong hopes Of his re-
covery although he was quite well at 10 O'Clock
at night in consequences probably OF the excitement pro-
duced by his sister and other intimate trends from
Baltimore county having visited him for the hrs time
since the sad occurrence
An account on Monday stated that Dickinson Gorsuch,
the son. and DR. Pierce and Joshua Gorsuch The nephews
Of Mr. Edward Gorsuch were slightly better on Monday.
and there were hopes OF the recovery Of Dr. Pierce
The Baltimore sun learns from private source that
Governor Love- Immediately upon the receipt OF anthem
nc information despatched special messenger to the
President of the United States with communication on
the subject
There appears to be no doubt that the negro who killed
Mr.. Gorsuch is idend fed among the prisoners.
