II says Of the late Presidential battle: Ill
was en- extremely doubtful con .,ie; saa lie
result is rather to be attributed to good for.
tune and good management than to princi-
pies. Mr.. Buchanan was saved By Mr..
Fillmore. Without the intervention of the
party that supported the latter, he would
have been ina minority in every Northern
State" In the same article from which
we make this quotation. we read: 1--WE

tion and government, as originally made.

THE NEwFouSDLAND TELEoRApH.--We
understand that the New York and New
foundland telegraph line will be opened
through to St. Johns tomorrow Con-
gratulatory messages between the compa.
ny here and Gov. Dudley Of Newfoundland,
having passed over the wires yesterday.
The line from New York to oNewfoundland
lis ,7l5 miles in length, 85 miles Of which.
from Aspe Bay to Newfoundland across
the Gulf of st. Lawrence, is submarine.
/ The land line through Newfoundland Is
4O5 miles in length, built for the most part
through wilderness, and has cost the
Company, including the expense Of ca
lble about half million.
We are informed by our Liverpool cor
|. respondent, that the long contemplated
4 Trans Atlantic Telegraph Company has
actually been formed in London under the
auspices Of Sir John Breet, who has had the
lsuperintendance of all the great subma-
rine telegraphic enterprises in Europe, and
! one half of the required capital to com
] plete the line from Newfoundland to Ire
) land was Immediately taken up and no diff
Guilty whatever was anticipated in obtain
ing the balance.
r Contracts looking to the certain compile
ton of the line across the Atlantic next
summer, were being negotiated with one
of the London Submarine Telegraph Com
panies, and no doubt was entertained when
: the Canada sailed, but that the manufac-
ture Of the trans Atlantic cable would be
I ! commenced on the 1st of November, and
that it would be successfully submerged
between Newfoundland and Ireland during
! the month of July, 1857.

# Gov. MARCY GOING TO EUROPE. The
Washington correspondent of the New
s York Herald says:
i While Gov. Marcy will thus step aside
s from official recognition, he intends to Wis
o it Europe as private citizen next summer.
: He will be received on the other side with
/, all the honors and distinction due to his
It position and fame. He will most undoubt-
l. edly 60 to st. Petersburg. The Russian
n Minister here is one Of his greatest admi-
J. rers, and have no doubt the Governor
}, has received more than one congratulation
i from the Gear through his Minister in
r America, for the manner in which the Sec
,e retary handled Clarendon, Palmerston and
Sartiges. During the Champion affair, the
t. Russian Minister was in ecstacies over the
W scene. The Secretary Of State received the
A. Russians enthusiasm very good humored.
A. ly. Marcy is considerable wag in his
Or way, although it would be difficult to make
t, General Scott or Clarendon believe it.
