Tslesraph mprouemenl.-Mr. Cornell,
the Superintendent of the new York and
Buffalo Telegraph, may cry oul "eureka ~
if be has actually solved the question how
to cary The wires across navigable rivers.
The Albany Journal gives an assurance
that such discovery his been made, and
says, Mr.. Morse faucied, originally, thai
be could use the water itself as sufficient
conductor, by placing large masses ofcopper
upon either shore. But upon being tested.
it was not found practicable. 1t was then
supposed that by enclosing The wires in
massivelubes, and depositng them on the
bottom Of the river,the connection could be
permanently secured. The experiment
was made, and a day or two afterwards
the tubes were torn up by anchors. So
this mode was abandoned.
Mr.. CoruwelI has been studying for a
year or two, with view 10 overcome this
serious obstacle to continuous conneX-
tion. His reflections have resulted in
what he deemslo be practical discovery.
lie tested his project on Tuesday, and il
resulted 10 his entire satisfaction. What
the discovery is, he does not choose al
present to inform the public-except that
the connection is secured through naked
wire placed in the water. Those who
are aware that water is among the very
best conductors Of electricity, will question
Nr. C.'s veracity, until they learn more
of the details Of his discovery. But of
this the public may rest assured-lhe ex
pertinent has been successfully made, and
under circumstances which promise per.
mauent utility.

Commodore Sloa,, accompanied by his

been brought lhilher from Key West in The

modore S. has kindly favored us with the
following information :
1.-The flag of the United States was hoi
s,ed at Monterey, upper California. on the
7lh ofJnly. 1916. On the 9Th, it was dis
played al San Francisco, Sauoma and Bo.
dega, and few days after at Soulers Fort
on The Sacrimeulo. On the 18th, flag
was furnished al the request OF. aud was
hoisted by the Foreigners, principally
American and English, at the Pueblo of
San Jose. On the 10Th, the mission OF
S.. John, about forty miles from Monterey,
garrisoned and fortified. On the 2eih,
The corvette Cyanc sailed with battalion
of rlfemen, 10 take possession of ST..
Diego, and cut of the retreat of. Gen.
Castro (the Commanding General of Upper
California; into Lower California or Mex

"When Commodore Sloa, left in Mon

Barbara, was in The full aud very much to
The satisfaction of all the inhabitants, WHO
have been long desrous of seeing their
country under some stable government"
The Commodore left Monterey on the
29th July having delivered over the COM
mand Of The squadron to Commodore
Stockton, who has hoised his flag on board
the Congress. He reached Panama on
the 23d August, whence he proceeded to
Chagres; and. embarking on the Royal
Mail Steamer Forth, arrived in Jamaica
ON The last inst. After few days, he re-
embarked on The Br. steamer Tay, for
Havana. Here he found the u. S. brig
Perry, which be Immediately took for the
purpose Of conveying him and suite 10
Norfolk, Va, or the nearest port, By which
be could speedily reach Washington.
The Perry unfortunately encountered the
gale which has committed such havoc on
life and property in aud about Key West,
about forty miles north of that place; and
such was the dreadful state of the weather
wind and sea being such as no seaman
on board had ever witnessed, in regard to
intensiiy-that all means were found
unavailing to avoid going on a lee shore.
The brig struck on the Bahonda Keys,
being thrown on her beam ends; but, by
cutl!ns away her masts, she righted, and
getting over the seawardmost reef, she was
comparatively easy. No lives were lost.
