en-, prove to be bond Of perpetual peace
and friendship between the kindred nations,
and an instrument destined, by Divine

be forever neutral, and that its eommuni-
catons shall be held sacred in the passage
to their places of destination, even in the
midst of hostilities?

The intelligence of tho reception of the
Queens message rapidly spread through
the city, and this evidence of the successful
working of the Telegraph Cable occasioned
much rejoicing. In some quarters, howev-
er, its authenticity was doubtful until dis.
patch from the General Agent of the As
sociated Press removed all doubt. The
first iniimation on the subject TO the Pres
ident was communicated through Senator
Bigler, from information obtained from the
Washington Associated Press Agency,
when the President returned to the city
from the Soldiers Home, and received at
the White House the message from her
Majesty, Queen Victoria. He then pre-.
pared suitable reply. The Queens mes
sage was received by the President with
some doubt as to its authenticity, but the
matter was relieved of all donbt by the fol-
lowing message from the Superintendent
of the Newfoundland Line:
