The Departure Of the Pacific.

AMERICAN VISITORS ABReAD-YoUNG AMERICA AND
THE ADVOCATES OF THE NEW YORK AND PHILA-
DELPHIA BRANCH MINIS, EN- ROUTE FOR EUROPE
The Collins steamship Pacific Captain Ezra Nye, took
her departure for Liverpool Saturday last carry
ing nearly two hundred cabin passengers list Of whose
names we published yesterday Among the passengers
the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas, alias Young America
the Hon. George Briggs the advocate Of a Branch
Mint in New York; the Hon. Joseph r. Chandler,
his opponent, who was accompanied by his ladys
and Miss Della S. Bacon, the historical lecturer,
who goes Europe for the collection Of historical nfor-
nation The pier lined with carriages, and crowd
Of at least thousand assembled to witness the
departure of the noble vessel At IL O'Clock precisely she
out into the river amid the booming Of and
the hearty God speed OF the crowd among which
many who had friends and relatives board and whose
fearful eyes evidence to the pain they felt at the
separation. As she passed by Jersey City, her way
down the bay, she greeted with salute from o.
the Cunard steamers, which promptly answered.
Soon she lost to view but still few fingered behind.
after the crowd dispersed, as If unwilling to leave the
spot where they had parted from their friends.
A large number Of the friends of Judge Douglas were
with him on board the Pacific to bid him hearty fare
well, pleasant voyage, and safe return.
Senator Douglas, who is the embodiment and repre-.
sentative Of the principles Of Young America intends to
spend five six months in studying the different forms
and other important subjects connected with the
great science Of political economy. The Judge goes out
entirely his account, and will travel alone he
desires devote all his time to Investigation and obser
walton, for which he will find ample field in Europe.
He is however, furnished with letters Of introduction
to prominent persons in England France Italy, Germany
and other countries which it Is his intention to visit be-
fore his return his arrival at Liverpool he will pro-
coed Immediately to London, where he will spend few
weeks before his departure for the continent As
traveller not troubled with any predictions for Eng
lish laws and institutions he viii and n the great CAPT
tai much to confirm his pre1udces which Others differ
emily disposed would be inclined to pass with for
beararce We do not suppose however, that the Judge
is too strict democrat to refuse introduction q
few Of the arstocrscy and have too good opinion
Of him to think that his political faith would be in any
way injured by association with them. Young Ame-
rea has every confidence in his integrity to his prnc
Piles suppose that he could be influenced by the glitter
Of star, the sound of empty title-so he may hob
knob with the Premier and engage in those little
mites which relieve life Of much of its edum and
tony, with the aristocracy, without any apprehen-
sons regarding his future prospects for the Presidency
But what about Canadaf What will the Judge say
when the nobility hin of attempting to apprcpr
ate that portion OF her Majestys dominons2 Why he
WILL Of course be sincere annexatonist there he
has been here and, after oil, his previous policy ths
subject and the determined stand he has taken upon it,
will only to render him conspicuous among the
American notablities in Europe The English will
regard with astonshment the man who could only
propose such gigantic measure but who also
in advocating it with tenacy that equals it does
surpass their So the Little Giant will be the OBJ
served Of all observers AID the lion of the day It would be
well for him to look in Hall his rambles through
the metropolis and take particular nsce Of the dongs
Of the strange class of proessed and
grophoists and fanatics who hold their meetings there
in There much besides that the Judge win End wor-
thy Of observation, but above all would recommend
him devote his special attention to the condition of the
industrial classes where will he have better OPP
portunity for doing 80 than ia London.
From England, the representative Of Young Americas
win pass to France where he expects TO arrive in
time Tor the coronation Of the Emperor Napoleon and
the Empress, Eugene |. This will be magnificent spec
tacle and will attract motley assemblage of our coun
trymen to the great centre Of the fashionable world
Free soilers Young Amercans, aboonsts, whigs-sver
gays and woolly heads democrats-hunkers and barn.
burners representatives of all parties forgetting their diff
ferences; will here mnse il friendly association Hav-
ing witnessed the coronation traveller will proceed to
Naples and Sicily thence the States Of the Church.
Piedmont Lombardy and the other Northern Provinces
Of Italy, now desoated by Austrian rule, making notes
on the way.
We are rather inclined to think he will not visit Spain
Hungary for if found in either Of those countries with
copy af any speech he has delivered anywhere within
the last three four years. he might be arrested
suspicious person, be directly charged Of collision
with the Cuban junto and the revolutionary projects
Kossuth and Mazzini.
