"OCEAN TELSORAPIP" WM the subject of a
lecture in connection with the Working Mn 'o Institute,
at the Town Hall, on Tuesday evening, by B. W.
Wheeler, Esq., r.a.s.t. G. J. Andrews, Esq., eon-
pied the *hair, and the hall was crowded by a highly
respeet•ble audience. The lecturer treated the sethjeirt
in a h,aeli eert•ining, instructive, and popular style,
his remarks being within the comprebeendese of all.
The suture and principle of electric 114•10Sph! was liret
touched upon, followed with details of the peugrese
01 the telegraph rysteen in Great Britaln, the
Contenent, and thy-tugboat the world. Itiagrains
ash specimens of the various subdowine telegraphs were
exhibited and fully expisined, including those between
England and Ireland, Frani*, Belgium, Holland, and
In-la. Ti. difficulties sonneeted with tie. earlier *ape-
rimeets with- the various submarine sebeines Were

renewal of the undertaking in 1865, and It. eein.anana ,

eiontineed only about three weeks, two messages pissed

of ioying down EBO.llOO as additional risk inenranos on

boors, 00/ the English Onvernment would have saved a
mdlinn pormide sterling, which it cast them to send oat
a 8.-et to be is readiness should it be found necessary to
resort to extremes, and this country would have saved
the five millioas sterling which it lost by the
Interference to its commerce which resulted from
the stet* of siumenee which existed during the
narociations in that unfortunate affair. The
lecturer expressed his conviction that the moon=
which had eventually crossed the effort, of the Trans-
atlantic company, would give an impetus to other un-
dertakings of a similar nature, and that many in that
room might bire to see the whole earth brought into
electrical communiostioa with the metropolis of this
couetry. Independent of the national and commercial
vitae which might be anticipated as likely to
rdsult from the esteblishmset of such courntunications.
He (the lecturer) regarded them as highly important in
a moral point ot view, and that they might be regarded
ai cisteg • tendency to that unity among nations which
es, the prelude to that happy time when nations shall
tears war no more, bet when pesos and good-will shall
said among all nations of the earth. The appreolatiee
et the audience was frequently manifested by en-
thmiamic applause, and • unanimous and cordial vote of
&Wu du conveyed to the lecturer by amileasation on
the to-ton of the chairman. A vote of thanks was alio
secoldwi to the chairman, on the motion of Dr. Cum*
and the am E. W. Peon, who in adroowledging the
c oupliment, mid the audience owed • debt of gratitude
to the committee of the Working lien's Institute for
providing meth exeellent and instructive lectures, and he •
coped their efforts would receive a liberal support from
the pebiie, and that the institution would flourish and
prosper, sod receive • large addition of members.
