VIsITERs TO EURoPE.-The Collins steamship
Pacific leaves to-day for Liverpool. She carries
fifty passengers. Among the number we notice
the name of the Hon. Caleb Lyon, of Lyonsdale,
member of Congress elect from New York. We
learn that Mr.. Lyon intends to make the tour
of Europe, and may possibly extend his trip to
Egypt and the Holy Land. Time, only, will
prevent him from accomplishing the entire tour,
for Congress meets in December next
Mr.. Lyon is an ex-member Of the Assembly
and Senate Of this State, previous to which he
was an ex-consul to Shanghai and ex-secretary
Of the California Constitutional Convention.
Besides being an NJ. c., he is also an LID, and
member Of several literary societies. These
titles and qualifications, to say nothing of the
private character of Mr. L., are a sufficient pass
port for him wherever he may GO As bril-
liant poet and successful orator he is well
known to all our readers. He has written and
spoken his way into public fame and favor, and
we may now expect he will add another title to
his list, by his observations and letters from
Europe. Since the days of John Randolph of
Roanoke we have not met a more eccentric
character

tire President, or mission to one Of the courts

the result will be to attract the most extensive
speculation to those vast and fruitful regions OF
the South American continent
Here then. within the short period ofeighteen
years we have ten important foreign official
expeditions bearing upon the commercial rela-
tions and the tremendous destiny of this great
republic. There is no parallel to this in the
history Of mankind. Among these we do not
enumerate the internal official expeditions ex-
ploring the resources of our own territory,

sent day, beginning with Lewis and Clarke.
who were the first to explore Oregon and its
rivers, followed by Colonel Pike, Ncolet, Ere
mont, Abertt and Captain Stansbury. OF these,
Fremont's labors are by far the most important,
for he not only discovered the South Pass and the
Salt Lake-being the first white man that ever
the map the whole of the North American con-
tinent, from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific
ocean, and from Oregon to Mexico Besides
these discoveries, there have been numerous
semi-oficial and private expeditions, which have
contributed more or less to science, to the ex-
ploration of terra iacognito, to the develope-
ment of the resources Of the country, and to
the extension of it's trade and commerce from
pole to pole
And who has not heard of the expedition OF
Palmer-the father of clipper ships-who in his
little sloop embarked from Stonington, and
found himself one morning as fog cleared
away, in the presence Of two Peruvian shps-of-
war upon an exploring cruise in the South Sea,
while at the same time some islands doomed up
in the distance, which he had then seen for the
first time? With the tact Of the universal
Yankee nation, i" he Immediately rendered his SER
vices to these ships as pilot. The commander
took him on board, and seeing he was noble
covery of the group of islands in the Southern
Pacific, and in honor of his name, called them
"Palmer's Land" How illustrative is this
story of American genius

A LITTLE REFORM WANTED IN THE CUSTOM
HoUsE.-It is matter Of very general com
plant, that valuable parcels, sent to this coun-
try by Americans travelling in Europe, as
souvenirs of their voyage, get such over
hauling and tossing about among the officials
in our Custom House. either through curiosity
or carelessness, as TO depreciate and iniure
them materially, and sometimes to create con-
fusion and mistakes as to their delivery. In
France aud England there is more care and
politeness exhibited, and they generally pass
the Custom Houses there without the slightest
injury. We suppose there will soon be gen
eral overhauing among the officials themselves
in that department of public affairs but, in
the meantime, we beg to suggest to the present
incumbents, the exercise of q little more care in
overhauling what belongs to Others and we
ask them to bequeath the same recommends
ton to their successors
