Dr. SANDERS asked what steps had been taken to secure the proper attention of public bodies during the approaching vacation. on the arrival of the Great Eastern any one of these loops may be at once and easily raised and the splice made. More than enough of the cable will then remain to enable her to continue, or rather we should say complete, the wor', of carrying the second wire to Newfoundland. If, however, the Great Eastern and Medway arrive before the end of the cable is found by the Albany, all three ships will a t once t a k e up th e i r pos i t i ons and commence " sweeping" with their grapnels. The Medway is to be to the extreme west with the greatest lifting strain ; the Great Eastern in the middle, with a smaller lifting power; and the Al bany three miles to the east of the Great Eastern, with the least lifting power of all. So, if the cable ei the actual which end is brok en b y the Medway, the wire half-way up will be held by t h e grapnels of the Great Eastern, and the strain on t h e rope reduced by its being partially supported by th e M e d way. It is not intended to t cable w of ere th u e sed in v broken to e at - last year, as this is h ampered with the heavy grapnels and heavier a v to e r wire raise ropes cover it last aut umn, and h w ,if anything is ai r known with certainty of deep-sea soundings, is be lieved to be lying in a massive tangle over the end of the rope—a weight which nothing could raise, Di rectly, therefore, that the Albany has succeeded in getting her end of the line, and the Great Eastern and Medway have secured their portions, the Albany will steam ahead at full speed, so as to break the portion of the line she has grappled and leave the end free to come up unfettered by the obstacles heaped upon it in the efforts to recover it. She will then return and keep inside the Medway, taking from the latter vessel her grip of the wire, and holding on by it till the Great Eastern has spliced, if possible, her end. The Terrible in all cases will assist in carrying messages from ship to ship. She will also keep ahead of the Great Eastern and direct her to alter her course by firing one gun for a port helm and two guns for helm a starboard. Three guns are to signify danger ahead either in case of ships or ice. One gun from the Great Eastern is the signal to bring all her consorts round her im mediately. Most of the chief officials connected with the old Atlantic Company and the new Anglo-American are still waiting at Valentia for the completion of the great work. Mr. Latimer Clark has been here some days. As electrical engineer to the company he has to report upon and decide whether or not the cable has been truly laid. It will be given over to him for this purpose about midday on Saturday next, and his strict tests for " conductivity" and insula tion will probably occupy some 24 hours. When the cable has passed through this last ordeal it will be accepted by the company as completely laid ; and, as far as scientific skill can tell, the great elec trical problem of nearly the last 10 years will have been solved. A continuous stream of applications is flowing day by day on Mr. Glass, offering almost any sums for priority of messages to America when the line is opened. It may save these inquirers a deal of time and money—for their requests always come by telegraph—if we state at once that it has been determined that no messages except those of the English and American Government will have any priority at all, save those which arrive after the line has been publicly declared open. Mr. Glass, the managing director of the company, now seldom leaves the telegraph-house at Foilhommerhum, either night or day. Even during the very short interval of his absence every message and signal is brought to him, no matter at what time of the night. It is only fair to say at what we hope may be the suc cessful conclusion of this great enterprise that from first to last the credit of its achievement is almost solely due to him. His energy, his organisation, and not a little of his capital, have kept the various plans going, and if the Atlantic cable is laid this time Mr. Glass may fairly claim the chief honours of its success. Mr. Deputy C. REED asked whether any steps had been taken to secure a better supply of water to the poorer classes of the metropolis. Mr. Deputy DE JERSEY responded that the Com mission of Sewers would meet on Tuesday next to appoint a special committtee of their own body for the purposes he had already stated, and he believed that from five to seven gentlemen would be found ready to forego their recess and give their attention to this serious matter. With regard to the water supply, he might mention that had he had notice of the question he would have been prepared to pro duce a letter received from the clerk of the New River Company, in reply to a communication from the Commission, that the New River Company would give every facility, and would furnish a sup ply of water every Sunday. (Hear.) THE APPROACHING MEETING IN GUILDHALL. Mr. Deputy C. REED inquired from the chairman of the City Lands Committee what arrangements had been made for carrying out the resolution of the court with reference to the reform meeting in Guildhall. Mr. J. E. SAUNDERS replied that the resolution in question had been referred to the special Com mittee of the City Lands, who had managed and arranged the working men's exhibition and the hor ticultural banquet, and he would further add that the meeting would be presided over by the Lord Mayor. (Loud cheers.) The latter fact was a guarantee that everything would be conducted with propriety, and a fair hearing secured to all parties. TRAFFIC REGULATION BILL. The TOWN CLERK (in the unavoidable absence of the Remembrancer) communicated to the court that the Traffic Regulation Bill had received a second reading in the House of Commons. Mr. Alderman LAWRENCE, M.P., drew the atten tion of the court to the clauses of the bill which took away all jurisdiction as regarded the traffic in the City from that court and the Court of Aldermen to the City Police Commissioner, acting under the authority of the Home Secretary, and would prevent the delivery of coals, wines, beer, and other commo dities between the hours of ten in the morning and seven o'clock in the evening. The bill required the utmost watching And opposition, and he should therefore move that a copy of the bill be sent to every member of the court, and that it be referred both to the Police Committee and to the Commis sioners of Sewers. Mr. R. N. PHILLIPS seconded the motion, which was put and agreed to. SHERIFFS' COURT. The TOWN CLERK read the notice on the paper of business for the appointment of Mr. George Osgood registrar of the of the sheriffs' court (elected on the 3d May last), for a period of three months, and also a letter from that gentleman stating his inability to attend the Common Council that day, in conse quence of the sitting of the sheriffs' court, with a heavy cause list. Mr. M'George moved, and Ur. Lowman Taylor seconded the motion, that Mr. Osgood be appointed registrar until the election of officers at the end of the year. After some discussion of a somewhat personal character, the resolution was agreed to ; as was also a further resolution moved by Mr. M'George, and duly seconded, that it be referred to the Law and Officers' Committee to inquire into the increase of the duties of the sheriffs' court, arising from the Equity Jurisdiction (County Courts) Act, and to report the same to the court. FINSBURY-PARK. Mr. BONTEMS moved the following resolution : "'That in the opinion of this court the proposed ap propriation for building purposes of 20 acres out of the 120 acres of land purchased for the formation of Finsbury-park, by the Metropolitan Board of Works, would he a serious injury to the park, and a great privation to the inhabitants of the northern district of the metropolis, and that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Metroplitan Board of Works, and that the members for the City at that board be requested to oppose such a proposition." Mr. R. N. PHILLIPs seconded the resolution, and a long discussion ensued, in which Mr. Lowman Taylor, Mr. Lawley, Mr. D. Rogers, and Mr. J. E. Saunders, Mr. Medwin, and Mr. Turner took part. The resolution was carried, only two hands being held up against it ; and, on the motion of Mr. Alder man Copeland, a copy of the resolution was ordered to be sent to the Secretary of State for the Home Department. In anticipation of its completion a great fete is preparing here for all the country people between this and even as far as Kilharney who may choose to come on the hospitable invitation offered to all around. The Knight of Kerry and Mr. Glass are to be the entertainers. Fireworks and illuminations have arrived from Dublin, and everything seems to promise a grand gala day and night to commemo rate the successful laying of the Atlantic cable in 1866. Court of Common Council. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held at Guildhall for the despatch of business, prepara tory to the approaching recess. The Lord Mayor took the chair precisely at 12 o'clock, when a full ccurt had assembled. On the minutes of the last court being read by the town clerk, a member drew attention to an in accuracy in the printed minute of the resolution adopted at the last court with respect to the grant of the Guildhall for the use of the National Reform League, from which it seemed that the grant had been made for two meetings instead of one assem blage. The TOWN CLERK explained that this had arisen from a mistake made by a clerk. His (the Town Clerk's) written minute was limited to one meeting only. Mr. LOWMAN TAYLOR said that if the application for the use of Guildhall had been made that day he believed the court would not have acceded to it, and he now put it to the court whether, after the scenes which bad been enacted at the West-end, they would jeopardise their hall by admitting the public on the occasion to which the resolution bad reference. If he was in order he would move to rescind and revoke the resolution of the previous court. Mr. RICIIARDSON rose to address the court, but was met with loud cries of " There's no question before the court," and he resumed his seat, when the matter dropped. THE CHOLERA. Mr. ISAACS said he was desirous of putting a ques tion to the chairman of the Sewers Commission on a matter of great importance. He alluded to the approach of cholera. In 1849, when the epidemic appeared, special committees had been appointed by this court to take precautionary and preventive steps. At the present moment the sanitary arrange ments of the City were vested in the Commissioners of Sewers, and as it was very desirable that precau tionary measures should be taken, he begged to ask the chairman of the Sewers Commission whether the subject had engaged their attention, and whether it was meant to adopt precautionary measures in anticipation of the approach of the cholera. Mr. Deputy DE JERSEY, in replying to the ques tion, expressed a hope that no alarm should b created in the public mind on the one hand, don the other hand it was necessary that me asures of precaution should be taken. Removal Act and the Diseases Prevention divided, and uponner the Nuisances Pdrevention Act, 23 and 24 Victoria, the duties were the Commissioners of Sewers devolved that of re moving • nuisances, while on the boards of guardian s was imposed that of t he prevention of the extension of the disease. Ile ha d thatmorning had an intervi ew with and arrangements had been made to carry out all that was desirable in the matter so far as the com mission was concerned. lle might add that the boards of guardians were fully alive to the importance of the matter, and were to meet that afternoon to adopt those arrangements which devolved upon them under the statute. He could assure the court that the Commissioners of Sewers and the boards of guardians had the most ardent wish to co-operate, and would take care, as far as human ability could, to carry out the provisions of the act. On a matter of so great importance he thought it desirable that the court should have the fullest information, and he might state that he had recently had a conversation with one of the best authorities on the subject—he alluded to Mr. Glaisher—who had made meteorolo gical surveys on the former occasion, and who was MAYOR'S COURT. On the motion of Mr. M'George, seconded by Mr. Deputy Charles Read, it was resolved that, in con sequence of the increase of business in the mayor's court, particularly as regards compensation cases, it be referred to the Law, Parliamentary, and City Courts Committee to consider whether it is desir able to make other arrangements as to the holding of the court. The remaining business on the paper was then disposed of, and the court adjourned. The Strand Union Workhouse. An interesting and suggestive picture of work house life was brought before the guardians of the Strand Union at their weekly meeting on Tuesday evening, when the chairman, Mr. Wilkinson, pre sided. Mr. Hedgcock said he had a matter which he looked upon as of some importance to bring be fore the guardians. It was stated at the late in quiry held at the workhouse that the necessaries of the sick poor—their food, spirits, and beer, were bought and sold by the other inmates, and he had received information which went to confirm this. A person who had been a pauper inmate of the work house, and was a pauper official for some time, but who was now on out relief, had laid before him a statement of the facts, and was then waiting below ready to give evidence if desired. This man said that the sale of spirits, beer, tobacco, rations, and other things, was regularly and systematically Car ried on in the workhouse. One part of the house where those who bartered met, namely, the foul into t o should the be ~ the other place as the ward, being known as the "Bri Woodcut ter's Arms," from being near the place where the were—For wood was chopped. The prices paid two ounces of gin, two ounces of brandy, lid. ; for ' with vegetables, ld. ; for a 2d. ; for a beef ration of cheesed, mutton, lid. ; for three allowances . Brimstone Hotel"— (laughter)—and He into immediately, and he moved that the inquired man should be called up. The chairman said the man came before the committee with some griev ance,( mat ter before the rota committee. Mr. Hedgcock urged Hedgcock)wou would be thought better t tohiens inquire u t i h r i e n that the matter should be openly inquired into the guardians on that or the next • meeting. The chairman said t 4 No, no," and the majority of the guardians present • concurring, the matter was left to be inquired • into privately. A letter was then read from the Poor-law Board with respect to the late inquiry, in which the Poor-law Board desired that pending a further communication which will be made, the " and lr . i t guardians are to take care the wards are not overcrowded, and that the master performs his duty of visiting the wards daily. CIIURCII RATE.—On Friday last a church rate of Gd. in the pound was carried by a majority of 141 votes in the parish of Fenny Stratford, diocese of Oxford. A poll of the parish was demanded upon the question, and the result was—For the rate, 53 ; against it, 12. _ EADVERTISE3IENT.

Early yesterday it was confidently stated that the rumours which had been afloat concerning an armis tice for several days previously were about to be verified. A great money dealer had uttered oracular sentences, and had sold gold the day before. M. Benedetti had been heard to say a few words which gave an idea that he thought there would be no more fighting. The Prussians were inactive. The Archduke Albrecht still remained with the head quarters in Vienna. M. von der Pfordten was on his way to the capital, and so it was considered very probable that Austria and Prussia would come to an fig btifighting understanding in Germany. which Twould momentput an was end fav 0 to ur a t b h l e e succeeded in collecting for Austria. strengthened She had won a great naval victory as own stiffly of her capital. a pendant to Custozza, and could afford to hold her close to PreosfibTußhr on herself e I.ltalianan great frontroa t aor If question. yv fioe for the Vienna, ha e, She ad ne df e ub haddefence od sicknessagreed t o i in o t r h attempt to cut c t e e wedi Prussians th o bulk had u : k failed of his a r in ui their y .

TpheeacebascoeusldwepreoilnatidtoforC and to Hungary, as arguments in favour of theirlen" proposals. Prussia had not only become more moderate, disclaiming, it was said, exalted pretensions put forth on her behalf, but had taken the initiative in certain oblique indications of a wish to come to an amicable understanding. How ever, at 2.30 p.m. I heard the astonishing news that the Prussians had attacked the Cor p s d'Armee of Count Thun (the in 2d) front of Presburg, and that a severe conflict had been going on there for several hours. The officer ' • who gave the information at the same time stated that telegraphic despatches had been at once sent off to announce the conclusion of the agreement for five day 's usl3 ension of hostilities and that the fighting- s must have ceased soon after 12 o'clock. Presburg is nearly 40 miles distant. The railways which runs to it from Vienna, on the left bank of the Danube, was held in various places by the Prussians, and no t • rains had been despatched for many days. The steamers had stopped running, and it was not possible to get to the place, even if the road and bridge of boats to the city were clear, till nightfall. A suspension of hostilities • in Vienna, and a battle 40 miles away at one and the same time, were embarrassing events to deal with, but it was evident that Austrian ant Prussian had renounced the combat long before I cou p a have reached the spot, and so I put off my departure till • this day, when it is probable the Archduke and ' his headquar ters will move from the city towards his army to await the course of events. It is plain the Prussians could not have known of the temporary ti uce, or they would not have attacked the 2d Army Corps ' • but as yet I have no informatio n. It appears that the Prussians attacke d the Austrian position outside Presburg with great veheme nce in the • morning, a skirmish being gradually developed on their side into an action. But though Count Thun's corps was not very strong the Austrians were in great force near Presburg, and were enabled not only to hold their own but to drive the Prussians from the hills or rising ground they got possession of in the early part of the attack. The engagement took place at Blumenau, a little village some three miles north-east of Presburg, On the junction of the road from Marehegg with the roads which run down the valley of thelgarch, and then proceed nearly parallel with the railway from Vienna to Presburg, which branches off from the Ferdinand Nord Bahn at Ganserndorf. Probably the details of the engage ment, as well as the news of the five days' truce, were known in London and Paris at least as soon as they reached us in Vienna. Here we can only say that the Austrians repulsed the Prussians, and that when the orders to p ut an end to the fight were received they had the advantage, and kept it. There was a gleam of light on the Austrian arms for once, it is said, but it was SOOA obscured by the news of the truce. ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH EXPEDITION. - (Front the Times Sliecial Correspondent) FOIL 11031MERII UM BAY, Tuesday Night, July 24. Within 12 or 24 hours at latest, after this letter has reached the public, the Atlantic Cable, intact and even far more perfect in its electrical conditions than when it left England, will be landed on the shores of Newfoundland. Until it was out of all danger it was better in the interests of the general public that some impartial witness should remain here to record the progress of the undertaking, and, in case of failure, to explain, as far as possible, its causes and the probability of its being reparable or not. Many gentlemen connected with this great effort have remained for the same reason, though it isa t t r o e s b t ° o h :Friday pe d tha n t aid ing. The telegrams this afternoon from the Great t g h h e t or at a c t e e s o t f s a a l t l r will bine morn r a n i d - Eastern, though giving latitude and longitude with tolerable exactness, were, in fact, calculated from the dead reckoning—i.e., the rate of speed of the vessel and her course, for the messages told that weather and sea were calm, but that, as was ex pected when she came upon the banks of Newfound land, the fogs were very dense, and no observa tions could be taken. In this emergency, however, as in all other matters, every passible source of failure seems to have been foreseen and provided against. Thus to-day, in the midst of the fog, the accompanying vessels attendant upon the Great Eastern were ahead of her, the Terrible first, the Medway second, and the Albany third. The Ter rible was firing a gun every hour, the Medway at ten minutes past the hour, the Albany at 20 minutes past, and the Great Eastern at 30 minutes past. Thus a complete succession of signals was kept up, and the position and course of every vessel known. In case, however, of the fog proving so thick as to separate the vessels in spite of all precautions, the latitude upon which the cable will cross each degree of longitude has been given to all the officers in charge of the squadron. Thus, any vessel missing the Great Eastern can at once steam ahead to a meridian in advance, and then wait in her track till she comes up. So, also, in case of her coming upon the coast of Newfoundland in a dense fog, the Great Eastern is to stop steaming at once ; or if, for the safety of the ship, it is necessary to keep back from land while the fog lasts, the cable is to be cut, moored, and buoyed, and watch buoys put down to facilitate its being found again. This is also to be done in case of a gale of wind while making the splice with the shore end, or in such weather as tray render it unadvisable for the Great Eastern to approach the land. To-night is one of some anxiety to all here, for we know that the Great Eastern is in a fog, and we also know that the cable is being laid across a gully where, between two banks, the water is very deep indeed—possibly, for all that is known to the contrary, deeper than any other part yet passed. As has been already ex plained in a previous letter, the present route over which the cable is being laid has not been carefully sounded. All the depths along the line of the cable of 1858 are known to within a few fathoms, but it was south of, this that the cable of last year was laid, and to avoid all danger in grappling for last year's line the present rope is being taken at least some 30 miles further south from this again. This, in her longitude of 45 21, and latitude of 49 44, as sent here to-night, shows the great ship to be off two of the foremost banks of Newfoundland, where part of the gulf streams meet the regular set of summer cur rents from the Arctic regions. The ocean eddies caused by these contrary currents are often marked in the best maps, and these, in the latitude and lon gitude we have given, will show that between the two banks they have formed is a gully of tremen dous depth, marked as having no bottom at 3,000 fathoms. As a matter of course this terrible ravine has been avoided by passing north of it by some 50 or 60 nautical miles. Nevertheless, where the Great Eastern is to-night steaming, and it is to be hoped laying the cable safely at the north end of this gully, there is known to be at least 2,400 fathoms, or nearly 15,000 feet of water. Across this depth she will have to lay the cable till to-morrow (Wednes day) evening. Once passed this last and greatest difficulty, the water shoals gradually to about 1,200 fathoms, and then again deepens to over 2,000. From this final dip the submarine shore continues to ascend from 1,500 to 1,200, 900, 700 fathoms, and so on into Heart's Content Bay. The telegram to-night showed that the difficulties of these suddenly deepening waters had been fully appreciated. The distance run by the latest advices was about 1,300 nautical miles, and the cable paid out about 1,500. These returns show a large in crease in the usual amount of slack, which, up till lately, has been maintained from the time of start ing at an almost uniform rate of 14 per cent. The latest news also informs us that to-morrow (Wed nesday), at about 2 p.m., the paying out from the foremost tank will be finished, and the " lead" of the cable transferred to the tank amidships. After what has been so successfully accomplished in pass ing the run of the cable from the aftermost tank to that in the extreme forward part of the vessel, not the slightest apprehension is here entertained that the comparatively easy operation of taking it back to the centre of the vessel can be effected with the most perfect safety. On Friday night, or Saturday morning, it is expected that the end will be landed in Newfoundland, but as regards this everything will depend upon the clearness and state of the weather. All the vessels which have been sent out to supply the squadron with coal have, it is believed, already arrived at Newfoundland. As soon as the Great Eastern has completed her work that vessel, with the Terrible, Albany, and Medway, will at once, and with all speed, working night and day, pro ceed to fill up with fuel. The Terrible and Albany will be coaled first, and start directly afterwards for the exact latitude and longitude in which the cable of last year was broken. When this precise spot is ascertained " marked buoys," with which both ships are pro vided, will be moored for guidance in grappling. The Great Eastern and Medway will follow these ships, but in case of their not joining their consorts soon after the marked buoys are placed the Albany will proceed to grapple for the cable of last year. This vessel, with all the other ships of the squadron, is equipped with the most perfect hauling in and paying out machinery, with an ample store of buoys, marked buoys, wire grappling ropes, and dynamo meters to show the strain on all parts of the ropes and apparatus used. After the buoys are placed the Albany will at once proceed to " sweep" for the end of the cable of 1865. This somewhat anxious and most laborious process is effected by the ships in search of the wire carefully lowering their grapnels till the bottom is ascertained with certainty, and then slowly steaming at right angles across the line along which the cable has been laid 10 miles each way to the north and south of it. On the north side they would have to go more than 20 miles to reach the defunct wire of 1858, and at least 30 miles to the south of their proper route to jeopardise that which it is believed here has just been laid. As, however, all the vessels sweeping for the wire are , strictly limited to a distance of 10 miles north or south of its ascertained position, there is little fear of their catching anything but what they are in search of, for even in the densest fog the dead reckoning of t t a h n e c s e h r ip un a . nd ln gently to lift it as far as of last year's rope she is gen f . speed oase o o f f t e h n o g l i approaching the breaking stra in.
