The ATLANTIC IELBGRAPH.-No Now that a see
ond failure has resulted, we are informed that
Professor Morse, though believing that cable
may be laid and worked, has had no faith in the
plan OF proceeding adopted by the company, and
that it was for his differences with the managers
that he was left out of the board Of direction at
the last election. He believes the cable used is
much too heavy, and that'one of half its weight,
or less. may be successfully laid.
The New York Evsning Post is the medium Of
other suggestions for renewed experiment;
A cable cooled cannot be uncoiled without
kinks
Therefore the cable must be Feeled to be laid.
The necessity for two vessels to lay the cable,
Quadruples (and more) the risk OF accidents;
Therefore the cable must be laid from ship.
The voyage to England is easier, shorter, and
safer, than the voyage from England;
Therefore the vessel with the Oable should start
rom this side.
There is one vessel, and one only, of tonnage
and room sufficient to carry the whole cable, to
wit the Levathan;
Therefore the cable il ever laid at all, must be
slowed on succession Of reels in the Leviathan,
and the Leviathan must sail from our own
shores"

A Boy HORRIBLY MANeLED-A boy, about
seven years old son of Mr.. Santon, who resides
between Worcester and Millbury was assaulted
Monday forenoon.as we learn from the Transcript
BY very large and savage bull dog. and horribly
bitten. The dog, usually kept chained. had been
washed and Jet loose for short season Of exer.
else but few minutes previous. The poor boy
was fearful spectacle, his left arm being badly
mangled between the shoulder and elbow in such
q way that the muscle was not only laid bare, but
penetrated and torn and the palm Of his hand
was actually pinehed through and through by the
dogs teeth. The savage animal was Immediate
y shot In this case, we believe, the father Of
the victim was the possessor of the dog. The
skilful surgery Of DR.. Henry Clarke, to whom
the child was Immediately brought, will doubtless
give him the use Of his mangled limbs in due
time. srst Hr

marks
"This'is the season, too, for sowing the annual
crop Of doctorntes. In the morning many per-
sons will arise men, and in the evening will go
to bed Doctors of Divinity or Doctors OF Civil
and Canon Law. There are some cases when
the comforting Of the degree Of Doctor of Divinity
does great good 1t sometimes puts a sudden
end to the complaints Of a too fault finding con-
gregation. The story is told of clergy man in
New England village, who had been in the
same pastorate for many years, and who found
his influence at length sensibly diminishing. His
people desired ehange-they wanted a smarter
man. Ssme of his friends however, signed Pc
ttion, carried it to New England college, and
finally the doetorate was conferred on the aged
pastor. The degree worked like a charm His
remaining years were passed in peace among his
people, and they followed him lovingly TO his
burial.
The degree also has good influence upon the
person who receives it. The story is told Of a
trustee of one Of our colleges, who had for
number Of times vacated his seat when the ques-
ton annually came up, Who shall receive honor
AIRY titless The trustees needed bis advice The
coincidence was at last noticed. They made him

chase OF certain machinery for the use of the

example of that fraternal feeling which we

A LAD PASSING TaRoUGH THE SPOUT OF
A WATER WHEEL-A correspondent of the
Watertown IN. Y.) Reform.er, says the fol-
lowing is a correct statement of an occur
renee that took place in that village on the
2Sth ult:.
1.-TWO lads were at play on the bulkhead of
J. ]. Matteson & Co.'s cabinet shop, when
one of them, a son of georgia A. Sheldon,
accidentally fell in. The wheel carving the
planning machine was running at full speed,
and the boy was Immediately carried from the
bulkhead into the wheel. The spout ia six
teen feet long, two feet wide at the upper end,
and twenty-five feet seven inches at the place
of discharge into the water wheel. The wheel
is centre discharge, and is six feet in diam
eter, and performs about seventy or eighty
revolutions per minute.
At the moment the lad fell in, his little
comrade ran into the shop and gave the alarm
The water was Immediately shut off, and
search commenced, and in a moment CRY
was heard down in the water wheel. Mr.,
Matteson hastened below to the wheel, and
there discovered the little sufferer, with bis
feet through the discharging hole at the bot
tom of the wheel, between two buckets, close
to the shaft, crying to be rescued from his
perilous situation. Mr.. Matteson exclaimed
"Don't cry, Lynn, 1 will take care of YOU"
The boy quoted down, and began to make for
an opening where the covering of the wheel
had been partially cut away last winter he
was soon reached and drawn from his unccm.
Portable situation, and conveyed to his home.
DR.. Rice was at hand, and. on careful exam
indtion, found no bones broken, but the flesh,
from head 10 foot severely bruised. The boy
is now doing very well, and will soon be al
his sports again

HIsERN1AN One of the hands on the
steamer Empire State-an irishman, named
John Flannigan-on Monday last, while in
New York, being unable to sleep in the fore
castle or account of the heat, found cool
retreat in the wheel-house, where he was
soon fast asleep. When he awoke he found
the steamer was in motion, and escape impos-
siole. He was deluged with water, and in
danger OF being killed by the wheel in case
he lost his hold on the timbers. His shouts
were unheard, and he remained in his un-
comfortable predicament twelve hours, tn the
boat arrived at Newport, when his yells were
heard. and he was relieved. Probably he
won't want to take nap in a wheel house

FISHES TRAVELLING ny LAND,-Dr. Han
cock, in the Geological Journal, gives de-
scription OF a fish called the fiat head hassar,
that travels to pools of water when that in
which it has resided has dried up. Bose also
describes another variety which is found in
South Carolina, and, if our memory serves US
well, also in Texas, which, like the fat. head,
leaves the drying pools in search of Others.
These fishes filed with water, travel by
night, one with lizard like motion and the
other BY leaps. The South Carolina and
Texas varieties are furnished with membrane
over the mouth by which they are enabled to
carry with them supply of water to keep
their gils moist during their travels. These
fishes. guided by some peculiar sense, always
travel in straight line TO the nearest water.
This they do without the aid of memory for
1t has been found that If tub filed with
weter is sunk in the ground near one Of these
pools which they inhabit, they will when the
pool dries up, move directly toward the tub.
Surely this Is wonderful and merciful pro-
vision for the preservation of these kind of
fishes for inhabitiag as they do, only stag.
nant pools, and that too, in countries subject
TO long and continued drouehts, their races
would, but for this provision, become extinct.
