BrcaksnE 81 tho Topographic Cable.
NV YoaK, Aug. 28.-The following dis.
patch taken from the London Times Of the
18th, gives brief account Of the breaking
Of the Atlantic cable.
Plymouth, Aug. 14-Evening. Tho q. s
steamships Niagara, Susquchana, and He.
Majesty's screw steamship Agamemnon en-
tered the Sound this .. m. on their return
from their unsuccessful attempt to lay the
telegraph cable.
On board the Niagara they report that at
the time Of the severance the wind was
southerly there was some sea, and the yes.
sci was going from three to four knots, and
the cable paying out from Eve to six and
sometimes seven knots. As the quantity OF
slack thus expended was greater than ex-
pected at starting, and more than could be
afforded, to retard the strain was therefore
increased to pressure Of 3 900 pounds, and
the cable broke. The extra expenditure OF
slack commenced on Monday evening, when
strong and heavy swell prevailed, and q
This current forced the wire from the ship
at considerable angle; when the break wal
applied with increased power the stern oil
the Niagara was down 10 tho trough Of the
-, and the extra strain created BY her ri
sing was the immediate cause Of the cables
parting.
The general opinion 10 that the season ID
too fer advanced for another effort now
The Niagara 10 considered too heavy for the
purpose. II 10 stated that the wheels ceased
TO revolve when the pressure was applied on
Tuesday morning.

A Kansas correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette discusses two Judges Of Kansas,
thus:
Judge Cato is man Of dissipated habits !;
notorious as drunkard even here, where
drunkenness is so common.
At drinking party, he was called upon,
and made speech, in response to the fol-
lowing toast: "The Union must and shall be
dissolved, peaceably il We can, forcibly il
We must i" 10 which be took the most ultra
grounds against the longer continuance Of
the Union Of these States. He was decided.
~ in favor Of Southern Confederacy, and
the "chivalric South to remain independent
Of the North." &c.
While the examination Of witnesses is go
ing on, the Judge will take his hat and leave
the room to visit some one Of the numerous
saloons in town for drink. The proceed
ings are stopped, and after waiting Z while
Tor the return Of the Court, and that digni-
tary not coming back, the Attorney General
then, in imitation OF "ye Court" goes to
drink. The jury seeing both the Judge AID
Attorney 60 out to liquor, conclude among
themselves to follow suit, and soon the U. s.
Marshal is left alone in the room with the
prisoners and witnesses.
II the Judge gets too drunk to return, tho
Court il adjourned until the next morning.
Lecompte, 10 spite OF his stupidity and pref
udics, has some decency in that respect, when
Cato has none whatever.

Its not generally known that General
Washington, during the war Of the Revolu-
tion, received the honorary title of Mareschsl
de France. In reference to this matter the
Frederick (va.) Examiner contains the fol-
lowing:
Some weeks ago, in conversation ia the
Examiner Office, gentleman Of this city re-
marked that he had in his possession an old
porcelain mug, with an ef6gy Of Gen. w ash
.ington on horseback, and the inscription be-
meath, "George Washington, ESQ.,, General
in-Chief Of the United States Army and
Marshal Of France" A discussion thereup-
on arose as TO whether Washington had ever
received the BATON OF Marshal OF France.
To resolve the doubt, Colonel A. kimmel
said he would address the venerable g. w.
Parke Gusts, the surviving member Of Gen.
Washington's household, on tho subject. He
did 80, and received in reply the following
letter

lived in the age OF the Revolution, and VA

not have addressed to one he 90 loved and

the chief had no claim. Lord Napier, on !

Grafton OF the Railroad Convention which is
TO meet in New York, Sept. LIST:
Wewould suggest some matters requiring
discussion. For instance: Would not the
income Of the roads be increased il less mo-
ney were expended in buying Legislatures ?
Would not oil contracts, iron contracts, and
tie contracts be obtained at cheaper rates II
awarded to dealers in these articles, instead
of TO directors: Would not part Of the
enormous salaries paid to high officers, IL
paid to engineers, secure greater safety to
the lives of passengers2
To these questions might be added anoth-
err: Whether the interests Of stockholders
and the good repute of railroad securities
would not be promoted By forbidding the
officers Of roads to deal in the stocks Of their
several companies !?
