reflect little credit upon our national legislature,
who, on the 18th Of May, lstG, declared in the
House by vote Of IA to II, and ia the Senate

THE Submarine Telegraph.

Two gentleman Of Philadelphia have sent a
memorial to Congress, PRAYING Tor an appropria.
ton to undertake a teegraphc communication a.
cross the Atlantic to England. The idea has been
suggested by the successful experiments that
have been made in the French and Irish chan
nels, in the effort to unite France and Ire.
land with England. The scheme strikes US at
first as visionary, but in this age of wonderful i'm
Proyement and startling progress, we are almost
prepared for anything, The magnetic telegraph
itself almost defrd human conception, and yet we
see it every day in operation and it has almost
ceased to be a marvel.
The memorial sels forth that from experiments
that have been made, there is reason to believe
that there is a submarine table land extending
Of the British channel. The distance is about
1900 statute miles, and it is proposed TO anchor
buoyS at the intervening distance Of five miles
70 these buoys the teleGraphlc wire about three
fourth Of an nchin diameter, carefully covered
with gWtd p'rch0, Is to he attached. The wire
IS 10 be sunk SO deep as to be- out of reach of any
chafug from vessels or other objects, and 10 b.
supported if necessary, by cork floats The an.
chored buoy' would, it is said, keep the line OF
communication in its place.
1t bold and nghty prof. ct, but We are pre-.
pared to see the undertaking achieved BY the force
of modern enterprise and science.
