A G1RDLE RoUrD THE EARTH The Ge-
noa correspondent Of the Newark Advert
ser writes that among the fruits of thepres-
emf truce in Europe may be signalized the
projected Line of Telegraph from London
to Calcutta and Canton. The great work
is already commenced, and the line has been
actually made from London to Genoa. The
Government of SARDINIA has also just enter
ed into contract with Mr.. John Brett, who
represents . large company of British CAPT
talists--the same which carried the line 4
cross the British Channel-for carrying it
on from the main land at spezza TO the far
ther extremity of the island of Sardinia, in
the midst Of the Mediterranean; and France
will see that it is continued thence to the
province Of Algiers on the coast of Africa.
The interest that England has in its contin-
uance to her rich possessions in the East is
obvious enough without specification.
