Ouit affairs in New Zealand are not prospering as we could wish, and the Colonists make the same complaint of theirs ; but, on the whole, we do not see that the state of things is materially much worse than it was reported to be by the last mail. Two months ago it seemed as if events were preparing the conclusion of the war. There was, however, no " illusory announcement " of a general peace, as some are now saying, but a truthful account of a limited pacification, upon which we were all glad to found a hope that did not survive the next intelligence from the colony. Since then a couple of hundred Maori prisoners have escaped and established themselves a few miles from Auckland, where they may give trouble, and besides that, the Colonial Ministry have fallen out with Governor Sir G I;REV. Looking back on the past year, we cannot pretend that either of these events is so serious as to justify the almost melancholy lan guage in which some of our contemporaries have referred to it. In such a war as this one Maori " pah" more or less is not so terrible a matter. It is said that the escaped natives have taken up an almost inaccessible position. But all the Maori positions hare hitherto been similarly described, and this one will be taken like the rest unless pre viously evacuated. The most disagreeable part of the news is that which relates to the dissensions between Sir GEORGE GREY and his advisers : indeed it is be cause of these that the eslspe of a hand ful of savages has been made so much of in the colony. But this disagreement was an event to be foreseen, and, in justice to an able and upright servant of his country, its true cause should be well examined and considered. Sir GEORGE GREY is opposed and abandoned by his ministers, not for any fault of his, but for the sake of the policy which he represents, a policy in accordance with the instructions of the Imperial Government and with the opinion of the public in this country. The malcontents cannot reach the British Par liament or the British people, so they turn upon the Governor, who is charged with the duty of carrying out the views of both. It is the misfortune, or, as some may think, the honourable distinction of Sir GEORGE GREY that he is the organ of the resolution of the Imperial Government to abridge the magnificent scheme of spoliation on which the colonists had set their heart. Those enterprising settlers, judging, no doubt rightly, that they would never again see a British force of 10,000 men in their islands available against their native neigh bours, determined to do the work effectually once for all, an prepared their confiscation bills on the grandest and most comprehensive scale. Sir G EORG E GREY, however, was instructed from home to take care that nothing should be done in this direction inconsistent with the honour of the country, and the Colonists see in this resolution the loss of a splendid opportunity. They are amazed and in dignant; they cannot understand the squeamishness of the people at home, who, they say, probably with truth, if iu New Zealand, would wish to do just as they are doing. The debates in the House of Commons Est July are especially distasteful to them. They compl►in that they are misrepre sented as being greedy of war, and as prolonging hostilities for the sake of the large expenditure which the presence of an active military force in volves. We do not think, however, that many Englishmen believe this of them. In Now Zea land as elsewhere war involves the mass of the po pulation in privation and exposes them to danger. We feel confident that the colonists would gladly attain their ends without these disadvantages. If they could succeed in getting the native land for an almost metaphysical equivalent, by legisla tion, by judicial sentences, or any other pacific means, they would infinitely prefer to do so. If not, they are ready, as their conduct shows, to encounter the evils of war, dire as they are, in order to attain their cherished aim. With their newspapers, their legislative acts, and the speeches in their Parliament before us, we are in no danger of misrepresenting their senti ments on this point. They affirm that the war is an Imperial war, undertaken to maintain the QUEEN s authority. But this is a quibble. The QUEEN . , authority is of course committed more or less to any legislative and administrative act in the province, but it does not follow that, because the colonists have entwined their land schemes about all the acts of the local government respecting the natives, the empire is to lend its aid whenever they push their savage neighbours harder than the latter will bear. It is said that difficult constitutional questions will arise out of the disagreement between the colonists and the QrreN's representative. It is possible ; but tho relation out of which the present difficulty springs is not exactly constitutional. The THE , Imperial Parliament has given New 7.4144 the right of self-government, but there is nothing in the colonial constitution which enables the people to call for the use of a large British army. Let them manage their own affairs with prudence, and gain upon the population and territory of the natives with the weapons of superior skill and intelligence, and people in this country will not pry too curiously into their dealings with those interesting savages. They may then enjoy "re " sponsible government," and make and unmake ministries at their pleasure. But if they want to borrow our strength they must submit, like all borrowers, to the terms of the lenders. They stand in the same relation to us as Italy did to France in 1859, and must permit the superior Power to have the chief direction of affairs. They would have to do so if they were independent, and we were simply their allies ; and the fact that they are subject to the British Crown cannot give them a higher right than they could have if New Zealand were a Sovereign State. Sir GEORGE GREY is more than their local chief magistrate—he is the representative of the Power which has sent out, and which can recal, the army under General CAmEaos, and the coun try will look to Mr. CARDWELL and his colleagues to maintain his authority in that capacity.

Mioiaters," addressed the meeting on the subject a the policy pursued by the government in New Zealand. He justified the present war ; and while he regretted to say that by the last accounts it was quite evident that it would take another campaign to finish it, the government were in hopes that in all future time an other such war would become unnecessary. He contended that our conduct tow►rds the natives had been mild and just, but that the native. would not accept the rights and privileges of British citizens accompanied by the obligations of order and submission. Passiog to Au.. tralian questions, he congratulated the meeting on the abolition of the final remnant of transportation to Western Australia, 'but condemned the cooduct of some individuals at Melbourne in agitating to such an extent as to procure the sending back of the expirees. He next ■poke of the projected confederation of the Canadian provinces in terms of praise, observing that it would produce no ch►nge except it might be a beneficial one io their relations to this oountry. Turning Whom. quantities, heoontsoded that the government were perfectly right in the course they took oo the Danish question, but that course did not imply the adoption in all its absoluteness of the principle of non-intervention. The hon. gentleman sat down amid the cheers of the meeting, after stating th►t there was every prospect at the next geoeral election that the tory stronghold is Ewa would be broken op. Mr. SUTTON WENTLItN, M.P., and Mr. BUXTON, M.P., afterwards addressed the meeting, and the proceediop did not eonclude till s late hour. 'DECEMBER 16, 1884: A *TS,. FRIDAY RYNNING, - LATEST ;INTELLIGENCE. COMMENCEMENT OF THE EVACUATION OF ROME. The Italic of Turin says :—" We were right in stating the complete accord which existed between Paris and Turin on the subject of the Roman question. One of our correspondents assures us that the successive recal of the army of occupation from Rome is to commence at the end of January next. A French division would then leave Rome and not be replaced. Evidently a fact of that nature can only be considered as a probable even tuality, but at least it is a symptom which shows the excellent feelings of the cabinet of the Tuileries."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (FROM OCR OWN cosuspoNnzirr.) PARIS. THURSDAY ECM:IG. The Archbishop of Paris has withdrawn an inter diction which lie bad issued against M. de Segur, a canon of St. Denis and a Roman prelate, who is a violent ultramontanist. The immediate cause was the expression of au opinion in one of his writings, tLat " a state independent of ;the church was an enormity, anti-Christian, and opposed to God's word, and that the Inquisition was of Divine right." It is now supposed that he must have withdrawn or explained away this doctrine. The Archbishop of Paris and the Bishop of Nancy are now at the head of an active propagandism of Gallican principles among the French clergy. M. Desprez, a sub-director in the Foreign-office, has been sent to Italy to collect materials for the paragraphs of the annual "Expose; of the Political State of the Empire " relating to the Italian ques tion. A provincial journal calla to mind the fact that at the time when M. Fortoul, the instrument of the Emperor's will, proclaimed as a good thing that " bifurcation of studies " which M. Duruy, now the instrument of the Emperor's will, pronounces a lad thing, an eminent inspector of the university, M. Anot de Maizieres, was dismissed by M. Fortoul for opposing bifurcation. The question is asked what reparation will now be made to the ex-func tionary for the injury done him fur being in the right 1 The only answer is that of Talleyrand, " You are very curious." The city of Dijon, which a year ago returned 31. Magnin, one of the most rising members of the opposition in the Corps Legislatif, has just elected thirteen opposition candidates to the de partmental council ; the government has only se cured three seats out of sixteen. The Patric notices a rumour that MM. Gamier Pag;!s and Carnot mean to resign their seats, iu order to give the electors of Paris au opportunity of protesting against the judicial decision in the affair of the " thirteeu." I cannot think this news true. if it were so, I should agree with the Patric that the step would not be a wise one. There is no doubt about the opinions of the Paris constituency, but nothing would be gained by appealing to it on a legal question. The government would care nothing for the demonstration, but would re joice in seeing the minorities in the Corps Legis latif diminished for a time by two votes. It must be recollected that in case of resignation it can always keep the seats vacant for six months. The two members in question would not be well • advised to create such an opportunity. It is announced that a complete edition of M. Mocquard's works will shortly be brought out by a leading publisher. The Bourse is a little heavy, with scarcely any change except a fall of 7fr. 50c. in Mobilier. The Daily News is aeized. WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.) FR/DAT, DECRIIIIIR 16, 6 Lit. B.T. M.F.

THE EXTRAORDINAAY LIBEL CASE AT DUBLIN. rearnmAy's nocennsos. Yesterday Mr. Travers (father of the plaintiff) proved the receipt of the letter containing the alleged libel. The plaintiff was not cross.examined, and this closed her case. Serjeant Sullivan then nee to state the ease for the de fendants. He said—Gentlemen of the jury, I assure you I rout° stets a case more profoundly impressed with a deep sense of duty than I do at this moment. Gentlemen, I very much fear, from the manner in which this case has been opened, and from the mode in which it has been conducted, that your minds have been drawn away from the real question that you have to try, and it will be necessary that mob of you should restore himself to a state of calm judgment before you can come to a conclusion on the matters submitted to you here. This is an action brought against Sir William Wilde and his wife, founded on no act of his, founded on no course of conduct which be pursued or is alleged to have taken, founded on nothing be ever said of the plaintiff or did to her ; it is an action founded on a letter written by his wife, for which by our law he is responsible, but for the writing of which, in fact, he is no more responsible or answerable than any one of you that I now have the honour of address ing—for a letter that was written without his knowledge— without consulting him—and after Lady Wilde had received the grossest insults that woman could receive, and the direst provocations that could be offered. I deeply deplore that in an action of this kind we have been pursuing an inquiry totally foreign to what is to be tried, going into matters that cannot be before you in coming toe conclusion on tho issue, that will be sent to you to try, that cannot enter even into a consideration of the question of damages ; and I take upon myself the reopen. sibility of saying, at the outset of the case, that I will not enter on that inquiry. I never was more clear in my opi nion that these matters are beside the question you will have to try, that they cannot be investigated in the manner they ought to be, having regard to their gravity ; and I will not allow me clieut to be drawn into an investigation in an action of this description, and which investigation has no bearing, directly or indirectly, upon the subject matter of the trial I know you will, as men of honour and intelligence, give fair play to both parties here ; that you will deal with the ease as men of experience and men of the world ; and that you will not decide against Sir William Wilde in an action in which the matters to which I have referred cannot be investigated, and where, to prove the opposite, would not be evidence to clear him from this charge, and which, I say, upon the evidence before you, I will demonstrate to be fabricated. I say there is no neces sity for Sir William Wilde to say one word if, on the acts and conduct of the plaintiff, the evidence she has given, the document, she has written, and the course of procedure of which she has been guilty, you cannot, with safety to man, act on such testimony in a court of justice. My client, Lady Wilde, has been assailed by my learned friend, Ser jeant Armstrong, in terms such its I think ought not to have fallen from him, and who, surpassing the prurient suggestions of his client, has charged her with attributing, in this libel, to Miss Travers prostitution with the news piper boys of Bray, whose animal instincts he described in language that was shocking to hear. Gentlemen, I do say, with the learned and eminent Lord Chief Justice of England, when he referred to language used by counsel in a case the other day—" I have listened with astonishment to your opening statement. What you are stating now appears to be for the purpose of vindictive exposure. it i. nothing to the purpose. I can understand it, however, if your object is to inflict pain and humiliation on the defendant. The course you are pursuing is very effective for that purpose. The question is, has the defendant agreed to pay the plain tiff 50!. a year on her giving up the house If he has, and she has done it, she is entitled to the verdict. I can understand that. The course you are pursuing is very effective for that purpose." So say I of the portion of Serjeant Armstrong's statement which charged Lady Wilds with " publishing " this letter falsely and ma liciously, and insinuating by it that Miss Traver! was • prostitute with the newspaper boys of Bray— • statement that shocked the feelings of everyone who understands the proper interpretation of the English language. Gentlemen, you will do justice to Miss Travers, but, at the same time, you will do justice to Lady Wilde— you will not warp her language from its legitimate meaning at all events—you will not take her as attributing to Miss Travers immorality of the grossest and most debasing character ; and you will confine your attention to the issue which you have to try. The learned serjeant then proceeded to call attention to the pleadings. The first three counts of the summons and plaint charged that Lady Wilde meant by the letter that the plaintiff asked for money for pros. tituting her person, and that, io substance, she attributed to her that she had had criminal intercourse with her husband. Lady Wilds add on the record that she never meant to convey that the plaintiff was making for money for the prostitution of her person. rin the issues, all the jury would have to try was whether the interpretation put upon the letter of the plaintiff was the correct one, or was the interpretation put upon the words," wages of disgrace," namely, that it was money she endeavoured to extort by either suppressing a false charge or not circulating • true one! In the fourth count the plaintiff set out the libel without any inueodo, and then Lady Wilde justified it by saying that she wrote it to the father of the plaintiff, for the purpose of endeavouring to keep her from the dreadful course she was pursuing, annoying and insulting her (Lady Wilde), and heaping infamy oo herself. " Was that true r was the question the jury would have to answer. As he said before, he deeply lamented that they had been dragged into an inquiry that could have no bearing on that question, and that could not help the jury in coming to a conclusion upon it, That inquiry, however, revealed this—that Miss Travers pursued her course for the purpose of maligning and inflicting pain on Lady Wilds, and in furtherance of what she early said, thatch, would pay off Lady Wilde for the imaginary slight put upon her. And now, what was the tact? Lady Wilde was well known as a literary cha racter, and Miss Travers also had some pretensions to literary attainments. Lady Wilde brought her to her house, invited her to her table, and had her present at her reunions. In June, 186', this kindly state of feeling was abruptly terminated. It appeared that Miss Travers called one day and asked to see Lady Wilde, who was then en. gaged with a lady. The servant brought up the message, but before an answer could be returned, Mir Travers walked uninvited into the room. Lady Wilde was naturally annoyed at this, and told Miss Tracers that it was an on. warractable intrusion. Miss Travers immediately walked out in a great purlieu, and said, as she was passing through the hall, that she would be revenged on Lady Wilde, and she kept her promise to the letter. is October, 1011, a year after the alleged violation, Miss Travers launches out this tremendous piece of iniquity, the pamph let, containing the most awful charges against Sir m. Wilde, for the purpose of wreaking the full extent of her vengeance against Lady Wilde. The whole thing was a couooction. Let them put the statements in the pamphlet side by side with her seldom° on the table, and there were the most damning variations, which it was impossible to explain, except on the supposition that both pamphlet end evidence were fabrications. In the pamphlet it was asserted falsely, as the plaintiff admitted, that chloroform was used. Could they credit the statemonta of the perilous who admitted that the awful charge of using chloroform for • base purpose, levelled in print against a most respect able physician, was wholly untrue . It was said that the pamphlet asserted a violation, not an intrigue, as Lady Wilde io her letter stated, but the flysheet that went with the pamphlet set out • number of letters which, with the statement also printed that there were family matters which did not redound to the credit of Sir William Wilda involved, clearly raised the inference, the false infer. once, that there was an intrigue between herself and Sir William Wilde. Those letters, he deliberately asserted, were intended to represent an intrigue. The " family 2 I matters " are alluded to in the pamphlet as justifying the renewal of the intimacy after the alleged ♦ Why, in the eyes of men of common sense, the very fact 6 that the plaintiff said she renewed her intimacy was 4.- 5 structive of her whole case of violatioa. It is ! true that Sir William Wilde, who was married, wrote letters to Miss Travers, but they were such letters as he j rui.zbt fairly write to a woman whose literary Wants he ♦ admired. Counsel read several of the letters already pub. ▪ balled, and west on to say that the case was one of cruel, 2 vindictive persecution of Lady Wilds, who wished to avoid 1 the plaintiff, sad who suffered the most poignant anguish, ; spent sleepless sights, and anxious, dreadful days. from her conduct. Miss Travers, not content with what she had 4 done in Dublin, followed Lady Wilds to Bray, where she 7 was living with her children. She employed • newsboy 5 with • parcel of these iolaraoas pamphlets, and with the ; placard. " Sir William Wild e sod Sp eranza ," an d sent him " along the beach, se that he might go into every house, and that he might leave in the house of Lady Wilde, is the preesuce of her children and *eremite, the scurrilous pro ductions. Was that the conduct that entitled this woman to sympathy I Was that the conduct that justified her in being paraded before the jury as • paragon of female excel lence! It was an outrage on all the notions entertaioed on th e subject Ile pitied Serjeant Armstrong for his notices of female excellence. OD the day this woman did that act - ea the day that she sent her vile pamphlet into LadyWilile's house in the presence of her children and servants, Lady Wilde sat down and penned the letter which she sent to Dr. Travers, is the hope that he would endeavour to arrest his daughter is her tremendous career. It was falsely charged that Lady Wild, wrote the letter at the dictation and prompting of her husband. She did no such thing • else wrote it herself, and the statement that her husban d dictated it was without a wilds of foundation, and should not have been made. Did they excuse the lady who wrote the letter ' Would any of them in his heart say that a woman, treated se Lay Wilde had been, had not the right to apply to the father of this girl—the only friend she had—to prevent her pursuing her career of in sult and disgrace' The true solution of the eke was, as had been expressed in a letter from Sir William Wilde. that she was not accountable for her acts. The learned counsel, having referred to some other matters, called upon the jury to believe that the writing of the letter was justified, that every word of it was true, and that it was such a production as properly came from Lady Wilde ; and, under those circumstances be expressed his belief that they would give a verdict for his clients. Lady Wilde was examined—She said that she bad offended the plaintiff by refusing to see her, and her re venge was the consequence. She thought that the plaintiff's intention was to set up the supposition of an intrigue. Did you believe in an intrigue ?—tiever. Chief Justice Monahan—Did you come to the coeclusion that it was the intention of the writer to represent that there was an intrigue, although you totally disbelieved its existeece ?—Precisely. Mr. Sidney—At the time you wrote the letter did you believe that the plaintiff consorted with the newsboys'— Yes ; that she hired them, and spoke to them, and gave them directions to come to my bonze. Chief Justice Monahan—You did not mean to impute immoral conduct with the newsboys' Witness—Oh no, my lord ; they were little boys 10 or 12 years of age. In reply to Mr. Sidney, the witness gave answers deny ing, seriatim, the interpretations put upon the various passages; she said she considered the conduct of the plaintiff in reference to the defendant as disgraceful, and that she had offered threat, for the purpose of extracting . _ _ Thus closed the direct examination of the witness. Serjeant Armstrong then . proceeded with the cross exanunation. The CSJO Ir&S still tuafiniatted when the court rose. THE APPEAL OF BISHOP COIESSO. (THIS DAY.) The hearing of this case before the Judicial Com mittee of the Privy Council was rammed this morning. The Queen's Advocate (Sir it. Phillimore) continued his address for the respondent. He commenced by observing that the two questions which be had raised on the previous day were—first, whether the metropolitan (the Bishop of Capetown) had power to deprive the Bishop of Natal ; and secondly, whether it was in their lordships' power to reveres that sentence by adviring the crown se a court of appeal. For the purpose of showing that the metropolitan possessed the power which he had exercised the learned counsel cited the case of "Lucy v. Watson," and he contended from this case that the bishop had power to try a suffragan by ecclesiastical law under the authority vested in him by his letters patent. Chief Justice Holt there held that to dispute the authority of the archbishop was not treating him with the respect to which his ofiice entitled him, and an application to the Court of Queen's Bench for a prohibition was refused. course that tended to establish the authority of the metropolitan. The facts of the case were these. A clergyman had been deprived by the Bishop of St. David a ; he appealed ag►inst the decision to the Archbishop of Canterbury ; the Bishop of St. David's resisted the appeal on the ground that the archbishop had no power to review his judgment ; ►nd the result was that a commission of delegates to whom the matter was referred held that the authority of the metropolitan was supreme, and that he was in fact a court in himself. The learned counsel then referred to a sentence of deprivation pronounced against the Bishop of Clogher by the Arch bishop of Armagh, and cited the *pinion of the law officers of the crown at the period to show that what was done had their entire approval. The Lord Chancellor was understood to say that he did not think that opinion very important. The Queen's Advocate said he had cited it because he thought it applied to a case in which their lordship. had to advise the crown. Lord Eldon was in the cabinet when the opinion of the law officers was given, and must have approved of its being acted upon. The learned counsel then entered into an elaborate argument for the purpose of showing that Bishop Colenso had no right of appeal, and that if he felt himself aggrieved he ought to have appealed in the first instance to the supreme civil tribunal of Natal, and to have exhausted every means of obtaining red:ere before coming to the Privy Council. He had not been deprived of his office of bishop, but simply of the right to exercise it in the colony, and that was a matter which was left by the letters patent to the metropolitan. Assuming that the patent of the Bishop of Capetown was valid so far as it gave au appeal to the Archbishop of Canterbury, the crown had pointed out a way, u it had a right to do, in which the power of appeal was to be exercised. [The argument was proceeding when our report left.] Yesterday Sir R. Mayne, Chief Commissioner of Metropolitan Police, visited Sheerness Dockyard, for the purpose of inspecting the police force at that establishment which is under the immediate direction of Superintendent Strength, the bead of the Metropolitan Police doing duty at Chatham. During his inspection Sir R. Mayne saw the members of the force go through the naval sword drill, in which the whole of the dockyard police are now instructed. Those of the London brokers who desire to escape the payment to the corporation of the tar of 5/. levied by act of parliament have organised a committee to promote their cause, and issued a formal statement of their case, by Mr. Russell, their agent. Mr. Churchwarden Hoare hen sustained a severe defeat. At Bristol he boasted that he had ten men in limbo for not paying church rates. The speech, it seems, was figurative. He had simply got an order against ten persons for the payment of rates and costs. They disobeyed the order, however, and instead of distraining upon their goods he ha.; sought to institute criminal proceedings. Yesterday be appeared at Cranbrook petty sessions to prefer a charge against Mr. Hickmott, of Step'shunt—one of the ten—of having disobeyed the order and thus rendered himself liable to be committed for tri►l. Mr. Bennett, of Serjentat's-inn, who appeared for Mr. Hickmott, contended that it was Mr. Hoare who had disobeyed the order, which required him to distrain. The magistrates dismissed the charge, whereupon Mr. Hoare announced that he should take the case to the sessions.

The very unusual entertainment of a rag gatherers' ball came off in this city on Monday night, at which there could not have been lase than 300 rag men and their wives and sweethearts. and other friends and ac quaiotanoes. The entertainment was given by a woman who madii• good deal of money by the rag business. Having just built a large brick shop on Richmond-street, a little west of Church-street, on the south side, she deter mined to entertain her customers at • grand ball and supper ; and not being very particular as to whether the company should be select, she gave a general invita tion to all the beggars and rag mem in the city, and neighbourhood. The "gentry" fell in with the idea, and freely accepted the invitation. A sumptuous repast was provided in a large room on the ground floor, to which the beggars had free access during the whole evening.

Mr. Roche having int ro duced the deputation, Mr. SHAW, in the absence of the incumbent of the parish of Paddington, addressed the board in support of the prayri of the memorial and said that the present open I: sewer emitted the most offensive exhalations, and a, t ,cos proposed to cover the land adjacent thereto with a numl.er of houses of the first class, they hoped that the bolrd svoll.l at once take steps to cover over this sewer, which WAY complete pest to the entire neighbourhood, and especially ea, as at the present time the district was subjesA to at assessment of 7.15f,000/.

This morning the new Atlantic cable was (1...i -1 menced being celled from the company's premises (late Elliott, and Co.), Borden. wharf, Greenwich, on hoard the Amethyst Admiralty vessel, for conveyance to the Great Esstein at Sheerneu. The neces,ty of keeping the cable constantly under water has led to the erection of eight @Dorman tanks on the company's premises, into which the cable is daily being coiled from eight correspooding &win; machines at the rate of SO miles per week. From these tank, it is for the first time to.dav beMg transferred to tanks on board the Amethyst, which will hold 110 miles.

The coiling from the premises on board the Amethyst is proceeding at the rate of two miles per hour. The Great Eastern bee been fitted with five large tanks, and it will occupy three days in transferring the cable from the Ame thyst to that vessel. The distance from the west oosst of Ireland to Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, is 1,600 nautical milts, and the length of cable in preparation is 2.300 knots, leavingl 700 knots for inequalities at the bottom of the ocean and other contingencies. The cable will be laid across the Atlantic by Messrs. Canning and Clifford in June nest. The Great Eastern will have 500 hands on board, with a weight of 15,000 tons, including 4,50 U tons of cable and 8,000 tons of coal.
