The LEvLATHAN.-RepOrts having been extern
sively published that the work on this vessel was
almost entirely suspended, that no machinery was
yet in her, &c. the Portland Advertiser has been
informed by gentleman who came passenger in
the Indian at that port that just before he left
England he visited the monster steamship. He
says there are 1850 men hard at work upon her
that her machinery is already in, and everything is
being driven as fast as man can do it. The desire
the part of the Overseers to prevent all imped-
meuts to the work going rapidly possible, is
50 great, that "passes" to go on board of her are
refused to visitors, lest they should incommode the
wCrkmen-snd our informant was enabled to get on
board only by personal acquaintance with Capt
HARRIsOE, who kindly took him over the ship. He
speaks of the state rooms, and other arrangements
for passengers, in the highest terms. She is being
fitted up in the most costly and desirable manner
Capt. HARRISON had strong hopes of getting her
ready for in July. In connection with this, it
is stated that the military authorities of Maine are
talking of having grand encampment of all the
uniformed companies in the State, to take place in
Portland some time during the visit of the Levia-
than.

STRAIGHTFORWARD DIPLOMACY.

remember a case which occurred here two or
three years agOin Naples, and which illustrates very
strikingly the different manner in which the United
States act. A DatuTalized American, though
Sician by BIRTH csmeto Messina to visit his PARENTS
but was forbidden to land. He was accused of hav-
ing been engaged in a conspiracy against the gov
eminent It was proved that he had been for many
years in America, and that so, the lamb could not
have offended the wolf. Another ground was taken
up and cut from under them: but Mr. Owen, TO
highly respected minister who represents the in
terests Of the United States at this court with
much advantage to its citizens, became angry. In
stead Of bandying courteses, and Numbering about
kindness, he sent for American frgate, insisted
on permission for hsfellow citizen TO land demanded
the indemnity, and the dismissal from the service of
the officer who prohibited the landing Of the Ameri
citizen, and obtained every demand. From
that time to this, Mr.. Owen has had no further
trouble; his relations have been as they are Of the
most agreeable character, andpersOnay he is highly
respected by the court If any doubts the facts
he may have them as had them, from Mr.. Ovens
lips. speak thus openly, because American diplo-
macy has no mysteries Contrast with this narrative

WhatWouldhave been the actions ofthe United States
