Arrival of the Steamship Africa at New York

New YORK JAN 9.-The Royal Mail steam
ship Africa, from Liverpool Dec. 25th, arrived
at o'clock, p. NJ. The Arago, from New
York arrived at Southampton Dec 23d. The
Galway "Vndicator" states thata survey had
been held ON the steamer Indian Empire, and
that she was pronounced unfit for further SER
vice. 1t was consequently resolved to take
out her machinery and dispose of the hull.
The London Times, in another editorial on
the Presidents Message, calls attention to the
striking disparity in the proportion of foreign
to domestic politics, and asks, how comes it
that China, Japan, Nicaragua, Costa RIGA,
Spain, Brazil, Paraguay, and Mexico, should
occupy the attention of Congress, to the eX-
clusi0n of interests so much nearer home, and
more valuable to people whose occupation
is to increase rather than to conquer? The
Times then points to the condition of the Post
Office in America, characterizng it as discred-
liable to the civilization of the county. 1t
then proceeds to criticise the quarrelsome
spirit which it sees under the studiously mod
crate tone of the message, and the article con-
cludes as follows: We have enough to show
that we ought not to be too much dazzled by
the moderation of the President, and that if
his voice is that of Jacob, his hands are evil
IDENTITY the hands of Esau We will only add
one other reflection, can it be, that the
whole American continent has entered
and i'll use the United States. That
the weaker in all cases is the aggressor, and the
stronger, in all cases, the attacked and injured.
Is 1t not, at any rate, very remarkable, that the
United States should be at this moment provi-
ded with a cdSSuS beNi against almost every
State from the Gulf of Mexico to Cape Horn
and that, though, in spirit of tolerant moder-
ton, they content themselves for the present
year with merely selling two provinces of
Mexico, taking armed possession of the Transit
route from ocean to ocean, and sending a flo
tilla up the Parana to the dreamy repose of
Paraguay. They have grievances and claims
for any number of Presidents messages and
for any number of strictly defensive expedi-
tons Is the wolf always so entirely in the
right9 Are the saints so completely in the
wrong
