PROCLAMATION OF THE GOVERNOR OF PENN. In a portion of the Philadelphia press, ol Monday, we also find a proclamation of the (to vernor of Pennsylvania on the subject of the Christiana outrage, which they received after 12 o'clock on Sunday night. Il is dated Mon day and says : 'w-n i Whereas, it has been represented to seal me thai a flagrant violation of the v-v- S public peace has occurred in Lauras ter coufily, involving the murder of Edward ' Gorsuch and seriously endangering ihe lives of other persons; and whereas, it has been al so represented to me that soihe of the partici pators in this outrage are yet at large ; now, therefore, by virtue of the authority in me vested by the constitution and laws.

If the Americans have lost caste at the Crystal Palace, they have secured triumphs on the waters ot England, and while the result is calculated for the mo ment to abash us, it will realize the tine aphor ism which Bolwer puts in the mouth ot Hit-he-lieu There's no such word as fail." Already, an English builder has thrown oul a challenge to produce in ten. weeks a yacht which shall compete with the star spangled A meri a ; but the challenge ha been prudently declined, from a belief doubtless, that another victory, with the experience which our builders now possess of what the America, constructed on a new and ingenious principle, can do, would be a matter of considerable uncertainty. A nautical writer, who addresses a morning conternpnrarv, is inclined lo attribute the sue. ess ol me traoge ciait irom tne western World, as much lo her peculiar rigging and sails as to her general form. In all this we see the improvement brought out ly competition. It sets the mind to work to account for giving results. It establishes a 1 principle ; and as in the breeding of animals, so in the building of yachts, an enlarged enp.-ri-ence produces the most complete and peifecl thing of its kind which ingenuity and capital can attain. When Clarjemagne saw the sail 'of the north men in the Mediterranean, he covered his face with his hands and wept, in a prescince of the future. When Queen Victoria, yesterday week, witnessed the triumph of an American sail in the Channel that washed her marine residence, she did what Charlemagne ought to have done she look note of the excellence which had achieved a victory, tacitly telling her subjects to piotit by rivalry, and keep their proud place in the advance ot nations. correct. .

Gentlemen : Your letter, without date, was this afternoon put into my hands by one of lhe servants of the hotel. The anxiety which you manifest to maintain the laws of lhe land and the publie peace is fully appreciated, and 1 have pleasure in informing you that more than 24 hours before the receipt of your letter, the par ties implicated had been, through the vigilance and decision of the local authorities, aue-ted. and are now in prison, awaiting an inquiry in to thesr imputed guilt. The district attorney and sheriff of. Lancaster county, active in r.011 cert with the attorney general of the State, de. serves especial thanks for their prompt and en ergetic conduct. This was all done earlv on rchant opened his counting house, religion, and science, and mor aU set up their altars. The United Slates of Ameiica now occupy that place on the globe which presents commercial advantages un known lo all ancient and contemporary nations. The territories of the transatlantic republic expand into worlds ; and she reposes between the tw' oceans, one washing Asia, the other Europe. Iler fields teem with plenty ; her mines are inexhaustible; while her rivei 3 ob viate canals, and tempt trade and manufactures into activity thousands of miles from the Allan tic and Pacific. Nothing was wanted to lhe local enthronement of civilization but aptitude in the inhabitants; and the history of the past week gives ample testimony lo its abundant existence. In a practical science we admitted no rival, ry fir more than a century ; in trade, we des pised competition ; and, since the haughty Hoi lander swept the Thames, we claimed, indis putahly, the severeignty of the seas. For some time, however, the Yankees have been quietly encroaching on our maritime privilege not pushing us from the element whereon our pride flung out the cross of St. George, but gradually creeping into an incipient equality. 1 hey did lhts4 not through accident or favor, information, contained in an extract from an official despatch, received Wednesday, at the War Department : New Orleans. Sept. 7. 1851. All expeditions against Cuba are ahan doned, and persons collected here for that purpose are returning to their homes. Other accounts from the South, com municated to the New York papers. stale that the Cuba volunteers assembled at New Orleans are penniless, and are de manding money of the Cuban cmtnit'ee. in order to get home. "Some disorders. it is added, "have arisen in conseq ieuce, and tbe police are active in endeavoring to prevent the committee from being mob bed. Some arresJs of the head rioters have been made. The. people of the city are glad to get rid ol them. We presume that the excitemnot has somewhat abated, as there is no allusion lo ii in despatches dated on the 7th. The latest report on the subject is contained in a despatch of the evening of the 6th insi. It says: " Jo further disturbances have yet ta ken place amongst the distressed Libera tors; but all the bar-rooms in the vfcond municipality have been closed. Three hundred men have returned to Alabama, hut many yet remain here for want ol the means to get home." In connexion with the subject of the late unlortunate Expedition, we perceivr that some of the "deceivers anil betr.ieis" ol the victims intend harping upon a re port (no doubt manulact ured in this coun try) that the Captain General had caused his officers to write letters to Lopez to in duce him to come ; in other words, thai the invasion was concocted and got up by the Captain General ! ! ent . an br fled In fflT ?. id f.
