YEARS ago, when Cherry Valley
was still city Of refuge from the
incensed Red man, Judge Cooper,
the father Of our great novelist, en-
tered, and became. in time aseized
and possessed" Of certain tracts Of
land lying about Otsego Lake, par
GELS of which be, from time to time,
leased at low rates to good occu-
pants.
Among other applicants appeared
one johnson, rather wag in bis
way, who wished a well known farm
bordering. on the lake. The Judge
proposed that fresh fish, in certain
amounts and at stated times, should
constitute the rent of the farm.
To this proposition Johnson, who
had q seine, WIS willing to accede ;
but stated repuguance, shared BY
every member of bis family. toward
eating fish from which the best had
been selected. "BuS, Judge" con.
tinued he, with great apparent can
dor, "l'll tell you what it is; if yor
will agree to take the fish just a.
they run, you may bring on you1
documents"
The Judge assented, remarking
that seine would not catch th'
small fry /; and the lease was duly
drawn up and signed by the parties
Nothing further was heard from
johnson, and some months elapsed
when the Judge, feeling a little
"fishy," proceeded to hunt him up
81 am after my fish !" shouted he
as he saw Johnson busy at lol
pier. -
"Ah, yes; just help yourself
judge was the reply :"there the.
all are in The lake, and you know
you agreed to take them Just as III e
run"
The Judge was fairly ''sold;" an
liz is said that Johnson kept tn,
Ipremises some time rent free, simpl
agreeing that he would not 'let on.

THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH

]
I The following Communication from 7.
p sbaifner, Esq a gentleman practically
and scientifically ycrsod in telographing
appears in tho Washington Union. No
account has yet been had from the tele-
graph feet, and We therefore give the arti
Gle as containing many ideas Of interest just
now.
1t Is useless to entertain discussion upon
this subject the Atlantic telegraph at pre-
sent There is no probability that the con
tract viii ever be made, for two reasons
f irat, the cable can never be worked if
lala ; second, there are reasons-some of
which have been made known to the gov
ernmont-which viii prevent the execution
Of any CONTRACT with that company.
/ hago some professions to knowledge Of
the science and arr of tclegraphing -Four
years ago published to tic world in Am
erica and in Europe, that my studies and
experiments on both continents satisfied
me that current of electricity of any
known form or mode Of generation could
not be transmitted FOR Geographic service
from ireland tc Newfoundland. Since that
tlme there have been no new discoveries in
galvanic or other developing powers chang
ing The state of science then calculated up-
on II the demon etraton of the impractica
bllty OF The proposed tolegrapraph.
. 1t has been stated that a current Of cleo
tmolty has been transmitted through the
whole 5000 miles Of the Atlantic cable in
the ships, and therefore there can be No
doubt but that the climax has been at
tanned. This imposition has been fully
exposed IN my memorial to Congress.
When the cable is laid in the water. the
clement Of rotardation then commences its
functions. f'The further they Law out the
cable the fecbler will be the current, ? until
1t ceases to traverse the wire.
| predict-not as matter of prophecy.
but as certain result springing from tic
fixed laws in electric scicnce-that the ca
blovill be laid porhaps1 geo or more miles
and it will be found unavailable for tele-
graphing. In this dilemma the company
will have the cable broke again, and the
aecidcnt will be charged to Providence
This will be the finale.
