Energetic efforts appear to be now making for the
carrying out on a grand and comprehensive scale of•
the wonderful system of the Electric Telegraph. It
will be remembered that in August, 1851, the pro.
moters of the Submarine Telegraph formed them-
selves into an association for the better development
of the extraordinary power for good entrusted to
their hands by the revelations of science. An
English Company appears to be now in pro-
cess of formation to undertake the extension of
the telegraphic communication between this
capital and the various capitals of the European Con-
tinent. The grand cable across the Channel was
laid down on the 25th of September, and on the 13th
01 November it was opened to the public; since which
tiio the mechanism has been worked on the English
evia°42tan d the French coast with the utmost facility
without the slightest intermission. Encourage-
Men tblia so far been discovered, in the progress of
ries lmb, to anthogrieto this most marvellous of all discove-

Royal Charter has with this end been obtained
al-
ready for their permanent incorporation. Beyond
this, arrangements are being now made for layiec„
down a subterranean telegraph from the office's
in Combill to Dover. Immediately these
preliminary portions •of the newly-organized
system are brought to something like a state of corn-
pleteneos, eve may presume that more remarkable
advantages will be secured to the public, than any
that can hitherto have been anticipated. " Wonders
will never cease," appears to be in these days a more
comprehensible saying ,than
that which denies the
possibility of novelty—coming
even, as the latter
does, from tlae lips of the iueomparairle SotoMokl.
