Thick fog in the morning ettfitillA :*;' LONDON, FRIDAY. DIARCII 5, 1852. There appears to be e ver y da y g r eater probability of a stern and violent opposition being rained against her MAJESTY'S Government. The appeal made by the Earl of DERBY ad misericordiam has p roved u yet altogether ineffectual ; it will be a m ercy it the ri_u'ine hu.ine,a of the c 1 untr% esn b. acconl , Plished prior to a dit,;.oltuil a 4,1 'illfrit• Fe bruary has eleraed and March is advancing, without any indication of the approaching Au hinission of the estimates to the criticism of the Lower Houle of the L-gililature. U n l ess a little more activity be displayed, th e 6wh of April will have come upon us before the Bud get has been whispered of in the House of Common'. It must be acknowledged that there are reasons for con siderable allowance upon this head to be made for the newly-appointed CHANCELLOR of the ExcHaquaii. His inexperience in the labours of the department to which he has been abruptly, and we conceive, also, very unexpectedly appointed, would account for whatever delays are likely to occur in the bringing forward of his financial statement. B e t , i n addition to this, it must be more especially remem beraci that the Right Honourable Gentleman h as ecieerled a Minister of such nororious incapacity, that some embarrassment must inevitably have been experienced bylthe statesman immediately afterwards elevveri the arduous ' and pt culiarly r - sponsible officeoffice of Chancellor of the Exchquer. B-ari"g in recollection, mo reover, the fact that the year which is ab.ut to c o , n ,, cee, the financial year, beginning with the next 6th of April, is likely fraught with more tha n to prove one with justice e us d tomary difficulty, Mr. DisueErni might of cce . en and from all par ties a, larger evidenc e deration. Immedi ately- upon the Opening of his official labourp the Cabinet will have to decide whether or not that t'.x shall be renewed which is annually productive of 'very nearly fee millions and a half sterling, the most unpopular and iniquitous of a ll taxes, the incomes. It is probable likewi se forthwith upon that a battle r o yal of parties will be commenced in the 'louse of Commons as to the advisability or 11011. 81,413 4bility of abandoning in " m ° measure the prin- THE SUN, ciples of Free Trade, and returning to Ouse of Protec tion. What our sentiments are upon the latter point scarcely require to be hinted at, much less to be explicitly enumerated. Nevertheless, Ve im portance of the crisis upon which the country seems just now to be entering would justify us in proclaim ing truths, however obvious, in the hope of reminding the forgetful and of kindling the enthusiasm of the indifferent. It is therefore, allowable at the present moment, we conceive, to proclaim our conviction in so many words, that the interests of the old agricul tural monopoly could not be revived without blood shed, that the free-trade policy could not be in any way reversed without the liability of REVOLUTION. We say this distinctly because such is our deliberate con viction. Under every circumstance, therefore, re membering the antecedents of the present Ministry, bearing in mind the views which they are pledged to advance, seeing the financial difficulties they will have to vanquhh, and that, moreover, with almost unexampled promptitude, it becomes matter for serious anxiety to observe the course pursued by the new Administration. Precisely at such a juncture it is that the nation is disposed to welcome with more than usual satisfaction a comprehensive survey of the crisis by an intellect as intelligent and a judgment as impartial as the in tellect and judgment of Mr. MACGREGOR. Address ing himself to his constituents at Glasgow, the Hon. Gentleman has, within the last few days, passed the position of parties under examination, in a letter emi nently entitled to the scrutiny of the' general multi tude. Since the period of his last communication, the' Cabinet, based upon promises of reform and upon the maintenance of free-trade principles, has crumbled away and disappeared. "It died," says the Member for Glasgow in bitter but deserved deri sion, " it died of the senility of an unprecedented official exclusiveness, of the obsolete folly of not re novating with health, vigour, and efficiency the de crepitude of its wasted body by the admission of popular strength." Yet, after an exordium in which the Ministry is thus designated in language of scorn as, at once, imbecile and dangerous, the writer pronounces a panegyric upon the majo rity of its members as individuals. He men tions as altogether beyond reproach the names of LANSDOWNE, CLARENDON CARLISLE, and GRAN.. VILLE, and bears in grateful remembrance the abolition of the Test and Corporation Acts, as well as the forwarding of the Parliamentary Reform Bill by Lord JOHN RUSSELL. His complimentary allu sions to Sir CHARLES WOOD it is impossible to regard as otherwise than most generous, coming as those al lusions do from the very man who has long been regarded by a large section of the community as himself perhaps the fittest Chancellor of tbe Exchequer that could be appointed under a Liberal Government. Later on, Mr. MACGREGOR reminds his constituents that when a year ago the Whig Cabinet sent in its resignation, it survived for twelve months longer only by means of engrossing the Parliamentary session by the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill ; and that it ultimately fell, not merely because of its utter incapacity—" its senility," as he calls it—but for reason of a crime of ingratitude, fur which it suffered the severest retribu tive punishment. Nothing, indeed, can be more ad mirable than the eulogium passed by the Representa tive of Glasgow upon the genius, the patriotism, and the experience of Lord PALMERSTON as the Foreign Secretary of England. The late disruption of the Ministry he, naturally enough, regards as the ven geance wreaked for his dismissal. Cordially and earnestly do we coincide with the opinion subse quently expressed by Mr. MACGREGOR, to the effect that, as large an amount of sufferance should be ex tended to the existing Cabinet as could by possibility have been displayed towards the Whig Government. We ourselves have already deprecated anything like factious opposition, and consequently the reference made by the Member for Glasgow to that particular point of the argument is to us subject for sincere sympathy and saisfaction. As willingly as Mr. MACGREGOR, we would do our uttermost to pre vent the possibility of unnecessary impediments being prematurely placed in the way of the Cabinet, al though we are compelled, unfortunately, to coincide in the justice of his opinion, that the nation must this session forego all expectation of Parliamentary reform, of legal reform, of financial reform, of sani tary laws, and of laws on education, relying for these thing., however, firmly and confidently upon the Libe ral majority, to which we look forward as firmly and as confidently in the subsequently elected Par liament. We have already directed the public attention to the report of the directors of the South Eastern lt wey Company, which appeared to us, as we be lieved it would to the unprejudiced shareholders, and to the community in general, to be every satisfactory document, affording the most conclusive evidence of lee z-al, effieiency„'and integrity of the Board of Ma nagement, and of the true economy practised on the line under their auspices. That we were not mistaken in our opinion will be ascertained from the account of the proceedings of the half-yearly general meeting of proprietors, which took place yesterday at the Bridge' House Hotel, London-bridge , It is true that questions were raised, and complaints preferred on various matters by captious or interested individuals, but there was no response from the ge neral body. The shareholders were too well satisfied with the progress they were making, and the gradual and steady improvement exhibited in their affairs, to take part with the opposition. Vain, then, was the proposition that the remuneration to the chairman and directors should be reduced to one-half of what it had previously been. The suggestion (for it was only a suggestion) was made without notice, and might therefore, fairly have been objected to. The party against whom it was directed, however, magnanimously refused to avail himself of the obstacle, and declared that the Honourable Proprietor should not be bound by any formal objection, but that he might bring the matter forward if he thought proper, although it should be at a later period of the proceedings. The tone and manner of its reception was sufficient, however, to satisfy the propounder as to what would be its ultimate fate if brought forward in due course, by way of motion. When the fitting time arrived he was non est inventus, and there was no other person willing to come forward as the advocate of the " penny wise and pound foolish policy" of not fairly and adequately remunerating those on whose exertions the prosperity of the company must ultimately depend. If you desire to obtain good and efficient servants, you must pay them not merely reasonably, but handsomely. When we consider what Mr. MaCGRFGOR bas dune for the lint—that his exceedingly valuable services acre rendered for five years, when the qt.ir, were in a much pro-porous condi i.,t, then at present, and that it is main!) through his indi fdti gaMe exertions that a dividend, after the rate of 3i per cert. p er annum, or of 513- on the actual selling price of stock, that price being 2 s'.hs, or 66 2-3 per cent. higher than it was two years since—we cannot conceive that the present sal a ry is by any means ex travagantor b eyond that to which he is fairly en titled to. The great question of the day was, howe ver, the election of directors. A ccording to the usua l course be' rotation, all of whom three direc tors retir e d wou ld have been eligible for r in deferenc e t o a f ee li ng reelection. The board although, we b o y f e a a r be what is termed many,hwandi,chbobwadevaerri,sednetmearmamiouinnriegtdyoahareho a e ieve, "an infu s i on of new blood" i n to the that f or th a t lders th t there , that 00 t h e eandmost effi c i ent by should m e e v a e n r s y purpose one of the r etirin g dire c t o rsdiroecf directory, should not offer himself for re-electio n. It so happened present occasion, thr ee members of the entire body vacated their seats, viz., the Chairman, the Deputy•Chair man' and Captain WARBE Tne l a s t - named tionourable an d G a llant Gentleman,although a most us e f u l an d valua bl e mem ber o f the board, one thorcughly acquainted with the continental traffic, felt that the re-election of his coadjutors was essen tial to the continued welfare and prosperity of the com pany; he, theref ore , mos t handsomely a nd considerately withdrew his claims. We believe that there were few persons present who did not deeply regret the stringency of the regulation which prevented the company from retaining the services of Cap tain W 4 BREN, and there was a general feeling that the trust should again be con fided to his hands on the first opportunity. The re spectekChaiXlDAD, Uri I .I4CGAIc4OR, was then I LONDON, elected unanimously, c,d a similar conplitneut was paid to Mr. RCNSUAW, the Deputy-Chiirman,nat a single voice being uplifted against either of these gentlemen. Mr. RICH, M.P. for Richmond, the candidate recommended by the board, was then elected, although many proprietors exhibited an anxiety that Captain WARREN should, if possible, be continued on the direction. The evils of any infirxible rule on the subject of re election of retiring directors thus received a partial illustration. It is a subject that should be calmly and maturely considered before the proprie tors of any important company consent to yield to the clamour of those who are only influenced by selfish motives, seeing no other mode of getting themselves into office than obtaining com pulsory resignations periodically. We trust, then, that the directors and shareholders will, on the first opportunity, reconsider the regulation, and see whether its reversal would not be exceedingly beneficial to themselves. On all other points the meeting went off in a very satisfactory manner. We once more heartily congratulate the directors and shareholders on the favourable prospects now opened of a gradually increasing dividend and a fair return un the amount of their invesqu,nts. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. 'We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Corps Legislatif will be convoked on March 20. Its first session will terminate June 20. Of 120 elections in departments, only two, that Of BOU HIER DE L'EcLusn, in La Vendee, and iIENoN, Socialist. at Lyons, belong to the opposition. The Baok of France has reduced the rate of in terest three per cent. By treaty concluded on Wednesday with Govern ment, the Bank will lend money on railway shares. The loan of 75 millions francs contracted by Go vernment in 1848 is to be paid off in fifteen yegri, instead of this year. The Bank's existence is pro longed to December 31, 1867. `, - A decree reorganizes and centralizes the naval de partment, with a view to the greater efficiency of the fleet. The decree of the PRESIDENT of the Republic, put ting an end to the system of election established in 1848 for the tribunals of commerce, is by the Consti tutionnel noticed with satisfaction. It would, indeed, be difficult to offer a good defence for the system that has been abolished. If all the electors had exercised their rights, the plan would have worked well ; but, so far from this having been the case, we have seen throughout the departments elections of judges for the tribunals of commerce, at which only a sixth — and sometimes even only a twentieth—part of the electors voted, the friends of order thus leaving to a handful of Socialists or demagogues the fate of one of the most important institutions of the country. The last number of the Bulletin des Lois publishes a decree re-establishing Prince JULES LUCIEN Bo- NAPARTE in his quality and rights of a French citizen, which be lost by accepting public functions, cenferred by a foreign power, without the authoriza tion of the French G kvernment. _ . We read in the ratrie—" The measure relative to the credit fowler is beginning to produce good re sults. We are assured that several societies are form ing on bases laid down by the decree." Extensive preparations are now being made at the hotel of the Minister of Foreign Affairs for a grand fele, to be given to the diplomatic and political world. Tents are being erected in the garden of the hotel. ' 'We read in the Constitutionnel :—" It has been announced that M. DE MORNY would be appointed President of the Legislative Body by the PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic. This news does not appear to be confirmed. " The Assemblee, in giving some extracts from the last article of the Times, ou the demands said to have been made on Switzerland by France and Austria, says : " The Times exclaims very warmly against the reso lution taken by Austria and France to exact from Swit zrland that satisfaction and those guarantees which they hitherto claimed in vain from the probity and goodwill of the Federal Government. Bat all the reasonings of the Times are founded on a confusion in words and things. It points out the independence and neutrality of Switzerland as threatened by the two Powers, and on the print of perishing. This is contrary to the reality. Switzerland has herself made en attack on her neutrality by Frmitting her territory to become the basis and the carting point for hostile and incessant proceedings against Austria and France; she has thus become belligerent, !.and is no longer a neutral state. m i x Swiz, , rtand the rigor to protest her independence, when she is so visibly under the dep , ndence of revolu tionists; the humble slave to fore them, and only wish, leg to appear independent before c.inservative Europe? The intervention of France and Austria. in whatever way it mi:y be made, will have for effect to replace Switzerland under the real conditioTA of her neutrality and her independence. It is completrly superfluous to reply to the Times, on the question of knowing whether the Act of guarantee 'of 1815 bears exclusively on the territory and not on the ted.ral compact; for this compact no longer exists in cons. quence of the Radicals, and the territory is not threatened. A tem porary occupation by French and Austrian troops, for obi€ct determined on beforehand, has nothing in com mon with a dismemberment. Now, if the occupation would have for effect to re,tore to the Swiss Conserva tives and to the national majority sufficient fore.- and e ,urage to overthrow the domination of that Radical minority which the complicity of Lord Palmerston caused to triumph in 1847, Europe and Switzerland her self would eagerly call for it." The Courrier de Marseille states that on the Ist inst. the Solon steamer left the Chateau d'lf, having on board 299 of the rioters belonging to the depart ments of the Var, Vaucluse, and Bouches-du-Rhone, who have been condemned to transportation, and are to be sent to Lambeisa. The decrees published in the Moniteur of this morn ing deferring the payment of the dent due by the Go vernment to the Bank of France, and extending the Charter of that establishment, caused an enormous rise in the price of Government securities at the Bourse. The Five per Cents. opened at 105 f. 90c., and closed at 106''. 90e, for the end of the month, being a rise of two per cent, as compared with the clos , rig price of yester day; the Three per Cents. closed at 69f. 85c.; Orleans Railway Shares, 1,1601.; Rouen, 695 f ; Havre, 2771. 50c. ; Great Northern, 625 f ; Avignon, 242 t. 50c.; Vi..rz - in, 550 f.; Basle, 232 t. 50c.; Bordeaux, 490 f.; Paris and Strasburg, 508 f. 75c.; Tours and N4ntet., 327 f, 50c.; Amiens to Boulogne, 322 f. 50e.; Paris and Lyons, 602 t. 50c.

SPAIN. • Our accounts from Madrid are of the 28th ult. The journals do not contain any political news of interest. Tne Heraldo mentions a report that the Queen of SPAIN will, after Passion Wer k, go to Aranjuez fur a few days, and from thence to the baths of Carrat raca in Andalusia. The Novedades states that the police of Madrid had seized the Illustrated London News on account of its et gravings representing the attempt to assassinate the Q ieeo. ITALY. The Duke D'Aumees, who is now in Naples, is urging the Neapolitan Government to remonstrate with the PRINCE PRESIDENT against the confiscation of the Orleans property. Tne Neapolitan Govern ment, however, as well as the Court, are perfectly puzzled to know how far they can countenance the champion of " order"—how far they dare remon strate, or bow far it would be prudent to keep silence. Great anxiety was felt in Naples for the arrival of the debate on the retirement of Lord PALMERSTON from office. It is pretended here by some of the Court party that they kn ew th e ex -S ecretary o f State for Foreign Affairs would he compelled to leave office before long. Lord GRANVILLE, however, is gradually assuming the same opinion in the estimation of despo tism in Italy, as that so honourably enjoyed by Lord P ALME RSTON. A foreign diplomatist, w ho has just passed through Italy, assures ua our foreign policy at present is just as odious to the views of the Vatica n and Austria as it was , and such will continue to be the case so long es we ar e En g l ish in our policy, no matter who may be iu power. The news of the attempt on the life of the Queen of Seam has produced a profound sensation on his Sicilian MAJESTY, who has suspended all audiences for the present. His MAJESTY arrived in Naples a few days since, hussars from Csserte. acco mpsnied by a strong body of ''''"-=--------- --------- TUE" POLITICIAN" NEW,PAPER —A daily journal, Published at eleven o'clock, has appeared this week under the above title.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 12,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken for export, and 1,500 American and 1,500 Surat on speculation. The market closed firmly, with Ame rican 1-16 d. to d., Common Egyptian d., and other kinds id. up. The sales comprised 8,500 American, 700 Pernam and Maranham at 50. to 6d., 600 Bahia at 54 P, to 6d., 500 Egyptian at sid. to 9d., and 2,500 Surat at 3d. to 4d. per lb.—Railway Shares were not quite so good with the exception of Midland Stock, which was firm. In the Produce markets this week business has been more limited, but prices generally have been firm. Coffee has been steady, and Mocha dearer. Tea dull, Tallow firm, and Cotton in demand. Dyes and Dyeing Mate rials have been in good demand the past month, the large quantity of 9,800 chest. of Indigo sold in the late sales is far above the usual average of a February sale. Saf fl,wer has been in more demand, and the finer qualities have commanded higher rates; a fair business has also been done in the middling qualifies of Lae Dye at im proved prices. Cochineal barely supported former rates, but the arrival of intelligence on the 28th nit., reporting a great falling off in the new crop, has given life to the market, and there are now no sellers, except at an ad vance upn previous rates ; other articles are much as before. The rate of exchange at Hamburgh on London lost Tuesday was 13 64, being higher. Stocks were firm, and Shares rather heavy. &Loney very *band tont. Grain firm, and Coffee steady. A party, writing about the rumoured intenti)n of the Bank to withdraw its small notes from circulation, observes:—' _ _ " The amount of gold held by the Bank of England at this time cannot be less than eighteen millions, and it is rapidly on the increase. As wheat and other productions fall in value (price) when superabundant, so must gold likewise. In Australia gold can be bought at 31. 4s. 6d. the ounce, and if to that is added ss. 9d. for freight, insurance, profit, &c., 31. 94. 9d. is then the price which it may be sold for in the markets abroad, and it might be had at that price here, but for the Bank Charter of 1844, which compels them to give 31. 17a. 9d. for all that is brought to their shop, whether worth more or less than that price. Consequently the Bank store of 18,000,0001. is hereby reduced in commercial value to 16,200,0001. The difference of 2s. in the pound, equiva lent to Ba. the ounce, being 1,800,0001., a loss which is chargeable upon their rest" (surplus fund), and is about equal to one year's dividend of that company. " To meet their difficulties, the Bank is contemplating the withdrawal of their 51. notes, thinking that their place will be supplied by debased soveriegns, and so the public be made participators of the loss which would other wise tall on the Bank exclusively. The loss to the Bank would not be very great from such withdrawal, for the amount of their Si. notes in the hands of the public can hardly be more than four millions; and their own estimate of the profit of such circulation being only 11.41. 30. per cent., or 48,5831 per annum, that sum must be considered small as compared with the one and a half to two millions sterling which they might to divide yearly. The utmost extent of reliet to the Bank by so taxing the public, even if' the sw,eme succeed, which is doubtful, would only be 400,0001., and there fore some other more honest or more able plan must be devised by the Bark to meet the emergency. The English Securities have been buoyant, with a moderate business dicing. Consols hate been 97W to for Transter, and 97i for Account. The Redneea Three per Cents. are 98,1 t and the New Three-and-a- Qugrter per Cents. 99f to i f . Exchequer-bills are steady at 624. premium, and India Bunds at 725. to 734. premium. Speculation is dull. Foreign Stocks are again very active. Grenada De terred have rallied from 9i to 10i. Equador are 511 Buenos Ayres realise 58k, and Old Brazilian 9Th Mexican have been 33 to I. Purchases have been made in Sardinian at 891 to 904, being an advance. Spanish Five per Cents are very firm at 251 to and the Three per Cents. at 424 to I. The Deferred have been 18' and 19i, and the Certificates, which closed yesterday at 21, are now up to 3 and 31 Dutch Stock is higher. Railway Shares have been at full prices generally, and the French lines are much dealt in at advanced prices. QUARTER TO THRAE.

HOUSE OF LORDS -(THIS DAY.) Their Lordships sat this morning, at eleven o'clock, for the purpose of hearing appeal,. The Peers pres,nt were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Truro, and Lord Brougham. HUTCHINiON V. PERRIER. This appeal from a declidon of tbo Court of Session in Scotland was continued this morning. The action was raised by the appellant against the late Charles Ferrier, for the purpose of recovering damages from him on account of his having wrongtully taken possession of a certain gateway and a small piece of ground which were alleged to form part of a larger portion of ground, in which the appellant had a right of tenancy under the magis trates and town council of Edinburgh. The pursuer rook an issue, and at the trial he tendered cer tain writings in proof of his alleged right of tenancy. These were objected to as unstamped; and it was ruled by the Lord Jusfice-General, the presiding judge, that the writings could not be received for want of stamps, and that the tenancy could not be proved without them. A. bill of exceptions against this ruling was disallowed by the first division of the Court of Session, and against this judgment the present a pp ea l was ta k en . T wo points w ere raised in the court belew—first, whether these were documents which rtquired to be stamped; and second, whether it was incompetent to prove the matter of tenancy in any other w ay t h an b y t h em . On the first point it was held that this was a contract of lease, and that it would be a violation of the Stamp Act to ad mit them; and, on the other h an d, a d 4 , u b t was ex p r es s ed whether verbal evidence could be resorted to when writ ten evidence was shown. YOUNG POETS.—The step between the sublime and the ridiculous seems to be frequently taken by " aspiring poets," and they insist on makii,g that respected and gene rally ♦ery prudent old lady, dame Nature, behave as it she were the most outrageous and disorderly person created.

See what a " poet' sent us the other day, in "Stanzas written in a Churchyard :" - .. 6 ' I've wept my burning eye-balls,,blind Beside my dying friends, And here am I still left behind, To count their latter ends." And because we declined our praises we were deemed " jealous;" but we leave the justice of the accusation to be decided by " a generous public."—Elizu Cook's Journal. PERFORATED POSTAGE STAMPS.—Everybody must have found it more or less troublesome to cut the pos tage labels one from another for useful purposes. It causes delay. Reflecting on this, a Mr. Archer in ven t e d a mac hine to " notch" or "puncture" them in their natal hour, which would enable people to tear them away at once, without the application of knife or scissors. A correspondence with the " Stamps and Taxes" was then opened on this matter, and Mr. Archer's proposal—particularly as he wanted no pay till the plan was ,uccessful—was favourably listened to. Mr. Archer was offered by the Treasury four hundred pounds r t e br the purchase of his perforating machine, and two hunditg pounds as a remuneration for the invention.

Alter a brief notice of some of the early systems of telegraphs employed by the ancients, such a s beacon fires. and the escape of water from pet forated vessels, as described by Polybius, and illso a few of those of mo dern coestruction, sech as Amon;on aid Chappe's serna• phor•s and the Ueiversal Telegraph invented by Major- G neral it Charles Paley; a description was given of some experiments made in the last and present cen turies on the possibility of transmitting electricity to considerable distances, with the view of adapting this power to telegraphic purposes. Among there we re mentioned the experiments of—Du Fay, who, in France, in the year 1733, discharged a Leyden jar through Cr wards of four miles of wire; of Wieckler, who, at Leiezic, in 1746, discharged a Leyden jtr through long wire, a portion of the riser ?kiss being included in the circuit; aid of Dr. Watson, who, in 1747, sus' pendee a length of two miles of wire on posts it Shooter's Hill, and sent electrical currents through it, the circuit being completed by the earth. This was particularly noted, because in all the earlier inventions of the present century a separate wire was reserved for this purpcse. 'The general existing: system of electric ttlegraPhs was then examined, aid divided by the author info three distinct d e p ar t ment:-Ist, the b at t er y, or t° l/ motive power; 2d, th e w i res and t h e i r i nsu l at i o n, or 1-4° means of conveying the erthteorethewapslacl and, 3s, the instrureents or the means of using th e power. Of the two former pow attar lated, iuspmuch as they had received scarcely any non from inventors, which the author regretted, n!, b ,,,, e thought these departments offered the widest field substantial improvement. The ordinary voltaic batteries were then described' together with the method of obtaining electricity fr om the permanent magnet, as employed by Cooke and 1) 1 4 Henley, and the manner in which it was adapted to t eittolfe its so action; and, use of the telegraph. The means of insulation iseri mentioned as specially needing reform; the preset, aboveground system being uncertain and imperfte.; its action, and the underground systems too exPe l39l in their construction. It, was explained that the objec t() of Mr. Edwin Clark's metallic capped insulators 019 prevent dew from b e i ng d epos i ted upon the no,rr;ig ~a s cups, as was always th e case f rom the good ta° l l - t il s a qualities of all non-co n d uctors.
