original a remark as the observation that " Steam's
a wonderful thing, sir ! " But it is curious to
observe the apathy with which the British public—
intent on much greater things, such as the boarding
in of Hyde Park, the close of the opera, and the
approach of Goodwood—have received the intelli-
gence. It is also curious to think that the staff on
board the Great Eastern have been daily in receipt
of a summary of the morning's news, carefully col-
lected and despatched by. Mr. Parkinson, of the
Daily News, in pursuance of a promise made by him
to his friends on quitting the vessel. Thus the fact
of disturbances having occurred on Monday night
in Hyde Park was known in mid Atlantic by noon
on Tuesday. Communications by telegraph is, as
yet, between London and Newfoundland only ; to
complete the communication with New York there
is yet a submarine cable to be laid across the
Northern Iceland Straits, a distance of about
seventy miles. The cable for the bridging of this
gap was taken out in the Great Eastern, and will
be laid in the course of a few days. At present
the messages across it will have to be conveyed by
steamer. Great surprise has been expressed that
the Atlantic Telegraph £8 per Cent. Preference
shares should be quoted as low as 4 to 4i, notwith-
standing its success. This is a mistake. The real
preference shares are the £lO Anglo-American
Telegraph shares, which have a twenty per cent.
preference dividend guaranteed. These are now
quoted at 12k, having risen £3 within the last
week.

On the financial aspect of the undertaking a con-
temporary observes :—" It may, perhaps, save
some confusion of ideas if we again state that the
original Atlantic Telegraph Company has a com-
paratively remote interest in the new cable, and the
words ' guaranteed eight per cent.' must not betaken
too literally. The real Atlantic Telegraph prefe-
rence shares are the £lO ones of the Anglo-Ame-
rican Company, and the holders of these are
guaranteed more than 20 per cent. before the At-
lantic Telegraph shareholders receive a penny. If
it should happen that the first year's earnings of
the cable do not exceed £l2s,ooo—an improbable
contingency—the whole of that sum will be divided
among the holders of Anglo-American stock. The
paid-up capital of the Anglo-American Company
is £500,000.7 A further sum of £lOO,OOO is to be
handed over to the Construction Company when
the line is opened ; and for this £600,000 the first
£125,000 earned each year by electrical communi-
cation between Europe and the United States is
secured by charter to the shareholders of the Anglo-
American Company. In other words, the latter's
shares are Atlantic Telegraph preference ones with
a guarantee of 20 per cent."
