The ears of the groundling5 were split with some

AN IMPORTANT TELEGRAPH MovEIENr.-We learn
from the Boston Ledger that very important tele.
graph enterprise has been submitted tJ the Boston
merchants by Frederick N. Gisborne ESQ, fayorably
known By his telegraph abors, who proposes to con.
meet Boston with Nova Scotia by submarine cable
from Cape Ann to Yarmouth, N. s. The distance ia
within 200 miles, which, with 80 miles now built
from Boston to the Cape, and 200 miles in operation
from Yarmouth, n s., to Halifax reduces the distance
to 45o miles against ZIG, over which the messages
now travel to reach the same points.
This arrangement, II effected, viii pIaee Boston in
direct communication with the point where the news
by the European steamers is first received and will
give all the business cities Of the United States equal
advantages in teegraphc intelligence, which they do
not possess tt wfIl break up entirely the monop
oies and exclusive arrangements which have hitherto
existed in respect to the foreign news by telegraph by
way of Nova Scotia ann Newfoundland.

STEPHEN G. WHEELER, Sec'y.
II WILLIAM STREET, !
New York. March, 1857. (
At the request of the President and BoaId of Di-
rectors of the knickerbocler Life Insurance Com
pany, certify that the mode of computing present
value of the Policies employed by the Secretary of
the Company is scientifically correct, and in
cordance with the prescriptions of the charter.
also certify, that have compared the list of poll
cies furnished me by the President the books
OF the Company with valuation tables sufficiently to
test the accuracy of the results given by the Secre-
tary, and find the values stated within to he
mericaly correct. That is to say, the present val
ne of the future risk of the office all outstanding
policies, the difference between the present value
of future premiums to be paid on them is S43 9G7 10.
The total value of policies, the holders of which
are entitled to dividends, is S29, ,227 o.
And II the surplus is correctly stated at S7l 3l2 Il,
the difference bctwecs this and the present value of
the future risk of the Company existing policies,
after deductng 10 per cent of it for the relief fund,
is the proper amount for dividend Wit S4 G1o 81
The principle of dividend is to assign to each
share proportional to the present value of his poll
cy which is I'll true value of his interest as stock
holder of the Company. This share amounts to 10
per cent of the present value of the policy.
