The Cable Laid.

Yesterday during the heat of the election, people
were aroused for moment to other things than votes
by the Geographic announcement that the Atlantic Ca
bic had been successfully laid that communication
perfect, and signals freely passed through The first
messages We believe are to be sent today in the form
Of interchange of courtesies between Queen Victoria
and President Buchanan. Some pretty platitudes we
presume.
We confess to having entertained decided feeling OF
scepticiSm with respect to the of this work.
We were mistaken That it can be done is already
tablished. That it will be profitable investment Or
confer benefits or convcnencies corresponding with its
COST remains yet to be seen. STILL the project in
mechanical and scientific point of view is successful
No1v is the time to sell out stock in the first flush of the
excitement arising from success.
It is certainly little short of miracle to think of
slender rope thicker than your thumb, stretching
from the old to the world lying safe and quiet at
the calm bottom Of stormy ocean, whose surface is
dashed into fury by every wind that blows In many
wild winter night, when the tcmpesttost mariner seeks
in vain for ray of light Or hope away almost miles be-
low him the lightning will be flashing messages of love
and hope, or of pef and speculation.
The effect of the Telegraph on business operations
will be difficult to tell Its first result must be to place
the advantage in the hands of the large operator and
capitalist to the disadvantage of the smaller operator The
very great expense Of messages will preclude the use OF
the line except to those who are heavily crgaged--it
would not pay others and they could not afford it. AS
for the friendly talk between the people Of two CONT
ncnts that is Hunncry Few people would be lavish in
their compliments professions if each word cost them
dollar. VIM. L. Astor would stop saying his pray
ers if they cost bin cent word. He would sooner

Outside Of North Carolina find that the leading,

telegraph connecting, it does two great portions of
the human familyannihiating distance, and enabling
nations to talk together though rolled be-

be carried out by British and American capital science
and mechanical ingenuity for after all, these two ma
tons possess of all these than the rest of the world
and enterprise and perseverance to apply them to
practical purposes Besides, their commercial relations
intimate and more extensive than those of any
other two nations and the mutual action reaction
of mind and public opinion powerful and imme
date than it could possibly BIC between countries not
possessing common language.
Foreign arrivals will not hereafter, possess the same

there is yet certain intelligence of the landing

TRINITY BAY, Aug. 5,-The Telegraph Fleet sailed
from Queenstown Ireland on the 18th of July and met
in mid-ocean on Tuesday the 18th.
They made one splice on Wednesday, the 2sth, at
O'Clock in the afternoon, and then separated-the Ago
ena,on and Valorous bound to Valencia, and the Nj
agara and Gorgo for this place, where they arrived
Yesterday.
The cable laid is 1868 nautical lor 1850 statute miles
long, from the Telegraph House at Bulls Bay to the
head of Valencia harbor and for more THAI twohirds
of that distance, in water over two miles deep.
The cable was paid out from the Agomem'aon at
about the speed from the Niagara and electr
cal signals sent and received through the whole cable
are perfect.
The machinery worked most satisfactorily and was
not stopped for single moment.
Capt Hudson, Messrs. Everett and Woodhouse, and
engineers electricians officers Of the ship and every
on board connected with the feet exerted themselves to
the utmost to make the expedition successful and by
the blessing of Divine Providence, they succeeded
After the cable is landed, and connected with the
land lines, the Niagara will discharge cargo belonging
to the Telegraph Company and then go to St. Johns
for COAL after which she will proceed to New York.

The telegraph cable is laid to Europe and yet we
can't get mail from Bladen county. 1t is hard that
while the mails-the precious mails lying at Brink
Lewis and have been lying there since Saturday no mail
agent will bring them down. Perhaps we may near
ria Fayetteville or Columbia, or Washington City,
or Boston, Or by way of the Atlantic telegraph but we
can't get Bladcn mail.

North Carolina Elections.

The general tenor of the elections in this State will
be perceived by reference to table and statement
of counties With occasional variations may remark
that these returns exhibit gain for Judge Ellis There
are losses and gains in the Legislature The losses slightly
overbaance the gains but not enough c amount to any
thing The only serious alloy to this state of things is in
the mountain district where as learn by telegraph
Messrs Holden e. Wilson of the Standard, Avery has
been defeated for Congress- and there is heavy Democrat
ic loss This cannot affect Ellis election by large
majority, although it may seriously reduce it. Mr.

THE RIvIERE SCANDAL" Capt" de Riviere arri-
we'd at Savannah on Wednesday, in the steamship Ala-
bama under the assumed name of Lewis David and
arrested on board the vessel by virtue of two warrants
issued the instance of Col F. S. Boun to keep the
peace towards the said Boun and the other for the alb
duction of the daughter of the informant from the State
of Alabama, with the intention of defiement -
There was considerable excitement during the progress
of the arrest. The Republican says:
Matters having become somewhat quiet on the dock,
Sheriff Prendergrast came ashore with his prisoner when
both entered buggy and drove down the bluff. This
movement revived the sensation and the crowd rushed
down the Bay hating at every block to be prepared for
sight when the party should drive up into the city
The buggy eventually emerged from below and fol-
lowed by the multitude to Justice Connels office, at
the corner of Bull and Bryan streets, where full bench
of Justices, composed of Messrs. Connel Steey and
Russell, were convened for preliminary examination
of the matters charged in the warrants.
Messrs. Bacon and Levy appeared for the State and
Joseph Ganahl, Esq, for the prisoner Some discussion
occurred the point Of jurisdiction, but it being ate
the further consideration of the postponed I'M
til to-day. In the meantime, Capt. de Rviere was
committed 20 jail.
The next sitting of the Magistrates will be held at
Capt de Rveres counsel to place Mrs. Blount and her
daughter the stand The will doubtless be rich
and command full house.
It is said that these ladies continue to be thoroughly
identified in feeling with the accused and maintain that
the legal proceedings against him outrage upon
right and justice. Mrs. B. has offered to defray all the
expenses of the defence Upon the whole it is curious
case, but perhaps we may get at the merits of it in the
course of the testimony.
The Georgian giving brief account of the affair,
adds:
We forbear to say any more upon this subject, in
consideration for COL B.. who has doubtless suffered in
many respects from the public exposure of his private
and family relatons-caused by the villainous designs
of cowardly mposter-and the weakness and indscre
ton of his wife and daughter since he has arrived
in section where buckshot and doubebarreled guns
the recognized remedies for wrongs such as he has
suffered we trust he will not fail to apply them upon the
slightest attempt Of deReviere to interfere further with
him or his family From their fellow passengers the
Alabama, we learn the statements of Mrs. Bounts in
sanity are well founded.
