OLD WHITEY.-This favorite war horse
Of Gen. Taylor has lately been sent on to
Washington City. What position he is to
occupy there is not stated. More notice
was taken Of his arrivals and departures
atthe various ports along the river, than
will be Of any whig Congressman from this
State, Col. Collier, of Steubenville, de-
clared, in the Philadelphia Convention,
that the wings could elect Old Whitley
Vice President. Col. Collier has received
ashis reward, an appointment to one of
the most lucrative Offices in the gift of the
President. Perhaps to praise Old Whitley
is the way to Gen. Taylor's favor. The
Wheeling Gazette says the old horse's tail
mas been clipped SO frequently, by those
who desired ''lock of his hair' as keep
sake, that before he reaches Washington,
hewill be in the condition of Tam O'Shan.

SAILING OF THE VANDALIA-The U. s. sloop.

from Norfolk on the 4th for the Pacific, with orders
to report to Commodore Jones, first stopping at the
Straits of Magellan, to endeavor to recover the
American sailor lost from vessel from New Bed
ford bound TO California. The aborigines a. the
Straits are to be held accountable for him. The
Vandalia has been heightened very considerably,
and has had many Improvements in her equipment.
She has on board one Of Francis valuable copper
life-boats, from the Novelty works, built according
to a model furnished to the Navy Department by
Commander Robert B. Cunningham, L. S. ~, Sc

ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH BETWEEN LONDON AND
PARIs-The French Government has accorded to
Mr.. Jacob Brett the authorization to establish on
the coast of France a submarine electric telegraph
between Calais and Boulogne, which, crossing the
channel, will go to Dover, on The coast of England
The treaty entered into with Mr.. Brett guarantees
certain advantages to the French Government, and
leaves all the expense at the charge of Mr.. Brett
assuring him, however, privilege for ten years in
case the experiment should succeed The works
must be terminated by September /, 1850, al the
latest; but it is probable that it will be finished
sooner. This first application of the submarine
electric telegraph, if it should succeed, as from
long examinations which have been made there IL
every 10 hope, will produce on the relations
between France and England results of which it
is impossible at present TO estimate the Importance
Dover, the point at which the submarine telegraph
is to join England Is united TO London by direct
telegraphie line; the capitals will. therefore, be
in this manner in almost instantaneous coIumu-
nication.
