TIE DoNINIoN OF THE SEAs.-A sho.. time since
the American ship Oriental created great sensa.
zion in England, not only in consequence of her
rapid sailing but by the beauty her model, and her
general appearance. She was the subject of seve-
raj articles is tie London press, and the impression
she created on the minds of the British public was
SO favorable that if disturbed the equanimity Of
some of the ship builders there, one of whom
ventured to say, that if carte blanche was given
TO him to build ship, he would construct one that
would outsall the Ousnta', or any other American
vessel. This implied challenge'has not been over
looked here. We learn from the best authority
that our New York merchants are about 10 build
clipper ship which they will put in competition with
any English vessel now in existence, or any that
may be built. The challenge Will be sent by the
Asia, the next steamship that viii leave our shores
for England, and the terms will be that the owners
Of the vessel which beats the o.her on voyage
frsm New York to Liverpool and back, will win
the beaten vessel. If we are not mlstak en- this will
wake VI John Bull. After what has been said. he
cant refuse 20 Challenge.
