The Atlantic Telegraph.

The latest authentic news regarding the
affairs of the Atlantic Telegraph Company
Is. that they contemplate laying the cable
across the ocean in June next. The Niagara
and Agamemnon, the two ships on board OF
which the wire was slowed for the first at
tempt, are dischargiug their cargo, and the
Company have ordered the manufacture OF
400 additional miles, also making provision
for the making of more, if that which now
lies in the water is not recovered They
already have on hand twenty-five hundred
miles of cable, and when the experiment is
tried again, they purpose having three thou
sand miles, or nearly twice rs long cable
as the distance it is intended to span. The
Company have already paid for the amount
OF cable they have on hand, and have in
bank, in ready cash, moro than twice as
much money as is required to complete their
plans; so no fears need be entertained that
the enterprise will fail for want Of means
The same English vessels that were engaged
in the first experiment, will assist in the
next, and our government will doubtless
permit the use of the Niagara aud Susque-
hanna, they having been Gtted with accom-
modations expressly for the cable.
The great need Of telegraph between
Europe and America, has been severely felt
during and since the financial crisis, and
felt among class Of men in England that
are amply able to lend material aid to the
Company should they need it An arrange
ment so essential to the interests OF a great
mercantile community as this, will never be
allowed to fail, if its accomplishment is a
possibility. A large share Of our CONNER
cial interests is identical with those of Lon
don, and Liverpool, and Manchester, anl
facilities for u rapid communication are
more and more needed as business between
US and them increases. The bankers, in.
surers, and merchants of England see plainly
how much of the embarrassment in which
they have become involved woud have been
avoided had the international telegraph
been in successful operation, and whatever
may have been their apathy, heretofore,
concerning the success or failure Of the pro.
ject. their own wants have now taught them
to feel strongly solcitous for its consumma-
ton

A Registry Law.

Some years ago the good people of Louis
lana thought it wise aud prudent to enact
Registry law, and with this view books were
opened and all voters in the cities Of Louis
lana were obliged to register their names to
enttle them to the right to exercise their
right Of suffrage. This was intended TO "Pu-
rify the ballot box" and prevent election
frauds, What has it really done The par
~ in power, the X Ms, have held the regis.
try books and taken remarkably good care
not to register the naHes of too many Of
other parties than their own, and even after
they have registered the names and resi-
dence Of such Of their opponents as could
not be refused their rights under the regis.
try law, they did what was worse-went to
the polls and drove away all nateralized
citizens who could be intimidated or over
come Ever since the registry law was pass
ed, New Orleans has been next to Baltimore
where we believe similar law exists-the
very worst place for riots anl outrages at
elections in the Union. A registry law has
been suggested for California. Shall it ever
be passed, with the results Of its workings

A New FAvoRIrE.-fIiram Woodruff, the
great New York turfman has lately brought
out a mare which he calls Lady Woodruff,
aud she by her extraordinary racing quail
ties has suddenly been placed oa the list of
frst class racers. The mare is described by
tho New York Herald as leviaahan in size
and very feet for comparatively unframed
animal. She is six years old, and as the
Herald says s'if her legs can stand the severe
test of training, size will probably be first
favorite against the world neEt summer"

Mr. TEN BRoECK's WIaNaNGs.--Ase every
body is anxious to know whether Mr. Ten
Broeck made himself whole by his winnings
in the Czarewitch, for the expenses and
losses of his spirited enterprise, we will
state, that we have reliable information that
he bet very largely on the result, and that
he not only reimbursed himself for all his
outlays and mishaps, but is largely in excess
Without any special information on the sub
;ect, however, all who know Mr.. Ten Broeck
would be sure of this result. He had lost
the whole season through, and the New
market afforded hsya his last and only oppor-
tunity for the season to get even. The
Withdrawal of Pryor, also. made it still more
necessary that he should not let slip the
only opportunity within his reach to redeem
his unfortunate campaign. Under such Cir
cumstances, n man with no more pluck than
a rabbit would feel bound to bet with spirit,
while a game man like Mr.. Ten Brock,
would be sure to go good length. The
weights suited him ; the mare was in ne
condition and all we have to add is, that if
he laid out bare one thousand pounds at
the odds, he stands winner to the tune of
half million of dollars. Although great
many have been laughing at him here, he is
now laughing at tham, in the right time. -

PRIoREss' TIME.-Alluding to the ques-
ton. of Prioress' tine at the Czarewitch, POr-
ter'S Spirit Says
''The distance was miles 4G8 yards, and
it was run by Prioress in min. 8 Sec, the
Srst heat, and 4:l4 the second. This gives
rate of | min. so sec for the first heat,
and l:52l for the second heat. We regard
this as good time IN any country and OH any
track, though is does not quite equal the
1:4j of Proress on the Metairie track in
1866. There is some difference, however.
between the drag of u siugle mile, and two
