wha, John Bul, thinks G. us.

An article Tn the London Msrchgnt, with great deal of franknesS and truth speaks of the gigantic strides the United States srs making towards national prosperity and greatness.
 It says we have no desire at present 10 enter upon any question of disputed policy: bat we wish to record our opinion that the empire of the seas must. before long be ceded to America; its per seyerng enterprise, its great commerce, and lis ac- cTging wealth certain to secure thus prize; will England be in a situation to dispute il with her"
 This testimony to our rising greatness, long since our due, has been withheld through spirt of en- ", Y.valry and jealousy. The English as people have deTided, jeeIed and scofed a, us. They have deeried our inventive genus; they have doubted our increasing wealth and consequent prosperity; they have undeFyalued our customs, our laws and our institutions. and they have always underfaied ora national strength and greatness.
 Si!ll the United States have been steadily pro gresSing. They have improved and multiplied theif agricultural pursuits and productions; they have extended their commerce 10 every "nook and corner" Of the ha5itabie globe-and they arc now successfully sirying and competing with the pau per labor of Europe n the manufacturing branch Of industry.
 Since the memorable day of the Declaration of independence. her progress has been with the most astonishing and unparalleled rapldity, ''up- ward and onwsEd.'
 At the great fair of London. in inventions of oi aIA,y, she far outslnpped every coniending na- yon. and in her triumph wrung from jealous rival a reluctant applause.
 Bat of ali her victories she seems 10 have been most happy ,n the great sailing contest, in which an Asazlicau yacht bore off ;rumphan.ly he dis- puied prize
 Thss victory taught the British nation a sad les Son--it opened their eyes io most melancholy fact that m ship building and navigation they wsse far infeEior to their neghbors " over the water.' IL has taught the English to view the embryonic eIosts of their infant rival in their true light.
