In perfect working order, of their special land line from Sum 'where the French telegraph lines terminate: to Modica, In edgily, a distance of about 1,300 mile& This line, which id sow on the point of completion, has heen constructed under a concession for forty years from the Italian government, and will be worked throughout by the ICtigilali clerks of this Company. The contract with the Telegraph Constrnetion and Mainte nance Company also provides for the reeking, laying, and de livery to tins Company in perfect working onto•, within four mouths, of a deep-sea telegraph cable capable of transmitting mosssges at a speed equal to the existing Atlantic cables tali by them, hiring an external covering suited to the known require ments of the Mediterranean bed, from Malta to Alexandria 'a length of shout 900 nautical miles', where it will he connec te d with the existing land lines to Cairo and gnes, and includes a wor►iag arrangement for recurituf to the Company the trans misaton of the through traMe between the Preach frontier and Nees. The contract *Mira' the contractorsto maintain the Cable in an efficient state for twelve months. Ity these means a substantial part of the direct telegraphic line from England to India recommended by the Parliamentary Committee on East India, communications will be permanently establish.4l. That this rou eto our Indian Empire will soon be effected there can be no reasonable doubt. The permanency and effickncy of deep sea Telegraph Cables, when properly manufactured and laid, is now well 4atablished, and the English Government have promised, bo considerttinn of an annual payment of £2.000 fora term of fourteen years ;to be made by th.a Company; to pick up the present Imperfect COMMU- Meat:lon by the Shallow Water shore Line between Malta and Auttandria, and that so long as this Company's Pile is effici ently worked they will not Icy any competing line from Malta to Aletandrla. _ . . _ i1;7.;; ;to be paid for the making and laying of the Deep Sea Cable, for the purchase of the Ind line. throneh Italy, and the present tutereata to the extetlng Malta Alexandria, line, I. £24%.090. _ . . _ TheeutaUng telegraphic communication between Sicily and Malta is by a cable belonging to the Mediterranean Vatension Telegraph Company, with whom a tariff for the transmission of through messages has been agreed. and neiotlations are now pending for laying a duplicate cable between those points. The Telegraph Constriction and Maintenance Company have agreed, if required by this Company to ley the duplicate cable and also a duplicate line serves the Straits of Messina ;undertaking to maintain them in efficient working order for mays Elontbs) tor the sum of £lO,OOO. Basing the calculations of the returns likely to result from this Company's outlay (assuming that outlay at £200,000), upon the results obtained from the working of the present blahs and Alesandrlaline,•net dividend of l 5 per cent. (after providing for all working expenses, Including the annual payment of £2,000 to the English government) may be looked for. It is intended to reduce the tariff for messages over this Com peny's HOES. All esperMisce shows that each a step tends not only to increase traMc, but also to augment the gross receipts. of the soundness of this view the Atlantis Telegraph affords a striking and recent example. The profits of this Company will be very largely increased when the submarine line fn•m Suez to Aden and Bombay is expresso will be limited to theactual costs of the formation of the Company, without any charge whatever for promotion money.

The recent Murphyite disturbances at Ashton under-Lyne, following as they did thiocrimr rence of similar disgraceful scenes at e, Blackburn, and other portions of the Lancashire c Main-manufacturing districts, indicate too plainly the existence of a condition of affairs which de mands the serious consideration of all who are in the least interested in the moral and social welfare of the operative community dwelling in the north of England. Those acquainted with the true state of working-class feeling in the cotton-manufactur ing districts are frequently reminded in various ways of the large and increasing degree of antipathy manifested by a very considerable proportion of the English operative classes towards those of Celtic origin. To their credit, however be it spoken, the majority of the more intelligent and educated English working men du not participate in these bigoted and most unworthy sentiments; but their tolerant principles unfortunately find little or no favour among the lower and least-educated section of the iminerous order of which they form I part. These sentiments of antipathy and dislike are sometimes reciprocally displayed in the shape of apparently insignificant street affrays, in which both parties are found assailing each other with a determination and ferocity more in-harmony with our traditional ideas of savage life than of what we should expect from individuals reared within the influences of modern civilisation. There can be no doubt that considerable numbers of the lower class of English and Irish workers eatartain for each other that most bitter and most Isogovernabla of all hatreds—the hatred of race. This unhappy state of affairs has been brought about by various circumstances, not the least influential being the alleged injurious interference of the Iriah labourer with the amount of wages procurable by his Eng lish brother. In Lanmahire, for instance, the close proximity of Liverpool, the great point of arrival of Irish emigration from Ireland, to Pres ton, Ashton, Blackburn, and other town where the cotton-manufacturing industry is largely carried on, has naturally facilitated the formation of extensive colonies of Irish workers in the neighbourhood of the various mills and factories. At first the large and appa rently inexhaustible demand for labour occasioned by the prodigious development of the Lancashire cotton manufacture prevented the rapid increase of the Celtic element from exercising any perceptible influence on the labour market ; but when periods of stagnation in trade intervened the English operatives began to regard with unfavourable eyes the presence of those whom they considered in the light of strangers and interlopers. Moreover, it not unfrequently happened that when a dispute occurred between employers and employed, the I places of those on strike were filled by shoals of workers imported from Ireland. These circum stances gradually deepened the feelings of dislike with which the Paddies "- as the Celtic opera tires are sometimes contemptuously designated— were regarded by the Lancashire workers, and tended to isolate them, as a class, yet further from their Saxon fellow-toilers. At times, desirous of conciliating in some degree the irritated population among whom they hat taken up their abode, not a few of the Irish workers would enrol them selves as members of the local trade organisations, and often furnished the most vehement and deter mined advocates of unionist doctrines. All this, however, failed to remove the hostile feeling pro duoed by the continued preponderance of the Irish labour supply in the less skilled and cheaper de scriptions of employment. In every direction the unskilled, and not unfreqaently the partially skilled, English workman found himself confronted face to face with his Celtic rival. And then, as if r maancimical difference... were not sufficient the coolness and ill-feeling engeideree n resticts et hostile religious creeds must needs e itself also unpleasantly apparent. The great bulk of the Celtic population are—as we all know—fervently devoted to the Roman catholic faith, while the corresponding portion of Lancashire artisans, immigrants principally from the English rural districts, are as strongly protestant in their religious professions. Regarding each other as heretics, as believers in false doc trines, as men whose very religion is of itself suffi cient to brand them with shame and ignominy. The great mass of catholic and protestant operatives stand separated from each other by a gulf fully as wide as that which divides the Jew from the Gentile. Here it should be borne in mind that the alleged irreligion of the working classes is—notwithstanding Archdeacon Sinclair's ' assertions to the contrary—more apparent than I real. In Lancashire, at any rate, the ranks of ' the Sunday school teachers, district visitors, and home missionaries are largely—in some places wholly recruited from the operative classes. ' Strongly attached to protestant principles, whether professed by the established church or by the vari ous dissenting denominations, and frequently find ing their attempts at evangelising the poorer and more squalid districts frustrated by the ill-con cealed jealousy and enmity of the Irish popula tion, who are too often encouraged in so doing by the lower and more bigoted class of Romish priests, they can scarcely avoid entertaining a strong and powerful dislike towards the j Roman catholic religion and its professors. This feeling of aversion has become in some places yet further intensified by the significant circumstance that in their most important social movements the Lancashire artisan cannot always look for the co operation of their Celtic brethren. The temperance organisation forms almost the only one of its kind in which both English and Irish are found labour ing harmoniously together, and even here the catholic and protestant associations are seldom found co-operating together. In nearly all others, the originators, officials, and supporters belong ex clusively to the protestant working-class. The inevitable result of this state of affairs is to render the Irish working population in our manufacturing districts a nation within a nation. They form an alien race, having few objects in common with those among whom they live, and by whom they are gene rally regarded with mingled feelings of dislike and suspicion. Yet there is no reason for doubting that ' were once the icy barriers of isolation broken down, many of the ill-founded dislikes and preju dices which at present animate both sides would speedily disappear. Influenced by the teachings of their cheap newspapers, and still more by the continual flood of educational literature with which they have become inundated of late years, many of the English artisans have been gradually led to dis play a far greater amount of tolerance and fair play than could reasonably have been expected from them. As a class, they have studiously re frained from persecuting their Celtic fellow-bre thren. They may have stood aloof in sullen dis trust from them, but they have in nowise interfered with them or their religion. Nay, more, not • few of the more intelligent and respectable claim both Irish and English, finding themselves conti nually thrown together, both by emaciation in the factories and by neighbourship, have learned to discover and appreciate each other's better qualities, and to mutually entertain sentiments. of a more cordial character than had hitherto been heldby them. The strong o r tns so repeatedly expressed by the English wo class ' respecting the unjusti fi able =tannin w hich Ire land has, until within the last few years been misgoverned by this coun&y,. hay on th e other hand, largely assisted in gaming for them the re spect and esteem of the bulk of Irish artisans, and has most certainly tended considerably to retard the development of Fenian principles among the Oeltie labotanng population resident in the mann ' factoring districts and elsewhere. Unless inter rupted by unforeseen circumstances of an unfavour able nature, there exists every probability that, despite their various differences in religious and social matters, the English and Irish elements - in this oountry might in due time be found combining and working as harmo niously and sociably together as do the English and Scotch elements. Unfortunately, this desirable consummation is now likely to be indefi nitely retarded. At the very moment when the English and Irish artisans were learning to shake each other by the hand, the apple of discord has been maliciously cast amongst them, and the clay of reconciliation and peace has become apparently as far distant as ever. By their repeated hot headed and frantic appeals to the worst pinions and prejudices of the lower sections of the English ' working class, conjoined with their reckless and unprovoked attacks on the religious creed professed by their Irish brethren, the lecturer Murphy and his bigotted colleagues have done much to re awaken the slumbering fires of religious strife between the two races, and to sow within our borders the seeds of social commotion and disorder. The recent disturbances in Ashton and else where testify but too painfully to the success which has attended the propagation of their incendiary doctrines among the more ignorant and impulsive members of the English working class. They have undone much of the work of our religious and social reformers. Years must elapse before the angry feelings thus aroused can become subdued and powerless. Long after the nation has forgotten these cruel and disgraceful ebullitions of wild and savage fanaticism, the memory of the same will rankle sorely in many an Irish breast, and tend to increase the instinctive dislike expe rienced by the Celt towards the Saxon. Such a result can only be regarded in the light of a national calamity. It may—nay, it will—take years to remedy the mischief which is being daily effected through the blind instrumentality of the man Murphy and those who assist him in his bigotted endeavours. A few months more of unre strained agitation on his part, and this country will most certainly become the scene of riotous excesses the like of which has not been known by us for many years. The danger becomes the Greater by reason of its magnitude being generally un suspected. It is only by constant mingling with the working classes in the manufacturing dis trict that the real extent to which the flames of religious bigotry and intolerance have been fanned can be correctly ascertained. The influence of the press has dune much towards counteracting the pernicious° xam ple and teachingsof the Mnrphyites, but it is high time tluet something more should be effected—that means should be adopted for preventing such inflammatory and mischievous utterances as those which have led to the cause of law and order being imperilled in so many portions of the kingdom. If Murphy and his followers be allowed to persist in their present courses, if our catholic brethren are to be daily subject to aspersions and insults of the most in famous and outrageous character imaginable, if our mobs are encouraged into the repetitions of excesses which carry our thoughts back to the olden times, when a Jew could not walk through an Eng lish street without risk of insult or personal injury, the cause of religious and social progress will have received a serious, and perhaps irremediable blow. Surely it is time for the country to interfere. Daily News. OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) Awaiting with increased interest the sequel of a state prosecution on which the political tortunes of the United States will prob►bly depend, the Times observes, without offering any opinion on the legality of Mr. John son's conduct, that, if he is convicted, there is an end to the balance of power contemplated by the founders of the American constitution. From that moment the President would almost inevitably become more and more the slave of party, and his office, already weakened and discredited, would cease to be the object of an honourable ambition. —Other subjects discussed in the Times are the speeches in the French Chamber on the Commercial Treaty ; the illus tration of the cooperative system in the well-known case of Messrs. Briggs and Co. and their workpeople ; and the merit, of the government scheme of iron-clad ship-building. The Daily Nein explains that President Johnson is neither acquitted nor convicted, but one group of facts which formed the basis of the last article of the impeach• meat has been set aside as not warranting a conviction, while as to those which remain the verdict of the Senate is reserved. The members of the Senate seem to regard their work as too important to be neglected, but at the same time not so urgent as to require to be hurried. Evi dently no serious consequences are apprehended from either a conviction or en acquittal, or we should not hear of a verdict being rendered by instalments. The court will not meet again until to-morrow week, when it will probably see its way more clearly to a final decision. The issue for the Hones of Commons to-night on the Scotch Reform Bill is, says the Daily Neva, whether the addition to theScoteh members shall be by the transfer of the second member from tolerably large towns, as Sir R. Knightley proposes, or of the single member from villages of 3,000 or 4,000 inhabitants, as Mr. Baxter's motion re quires. It is for the latter that the Daily Beal very em phatically pronounces, imagining that no liberal can have a doubt in the matter.—The ordinary trade and finance article treats of the suit brought by M. Labotterie and other shareholders of the French Credit Mobilise against MM. Pereire and the old board of directors. The Port tells its readers that the impeachment of the President of the United States has terminated with the acquittal of the socused.—Serjeant Armstrong's motion of want of confidence meets with no favour from our con temporary. The Telegraph regrets that the pressure of more ex citing business in the House of Commons hes favoured the programs of the bill for promoting a working union between the South•Bastern, the London and Brighton, and the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Companies. This measure Includes a great deal more than a mere friendly arrangement of the train service, and a mutual understanding that no further unproductive extensions should be carried out. It own prises a revision of the fares. with many important altera tions bearing most oppressively on the public. The Tele graph hopes the Lords will closely investigate these clauses before sanctioning the Amalgamation Act. The Star thinks the member, of the Boundary Commit• tee, whom names were given in Saturday's Express, will probably not be objected to. All are men of honour and ►bility ; and though neither Mr. Brace nor Kr. Whitbread Is capable at taking a polities! advantage is s mere settle ment of boundaries, they will be found much more difficult to "get round" then Viscount Everaley and Sir Francis Crossley. Mu.
