FRAZER RIvER.-The Frazer river
country is at present creating quite en-
excitement, and the emigration there has
been quite as great as it was to California.
Only few months have elapsed since
the discovery Of gold there has been made
public, and it is estimated that about ff-
teen thousand miners from California have
already gone there. 1t is stated that gold
is TO be found there more plentifully than
it ever was in California or Australia
Frazer river cmpties into Puget's Sound
just beyond latitude 10, and consequently
belongs to the lIudson's Bay Company.
This latitude was accepted a few years
ago by the Democracy as our boundary.
II they had held out for "5l4O," as they
declared they would DO, they might have
acquired this territory without a eight"
and the gold would then have been in the
United States instead Of in the British
possessions. But the very evils they ap-
pretended FROM asserting cur claims TO
The line Of 5l40 are now likely to be
brought about by their rclinquis hing H..
The lIudsou's Pay Company have tic ex-
elusive right 10 trade there, aud they
have adopted a policy which not ogly
threatens disorder and bloodsLcd among
the miners, but cause Of a quarrel be-
tween tiis evuu;ry and Great BritS2. 4
,ax is laid by the Company upon tie mi
uc.s for the privilege Of mining, and
American vessels sailing up the river have
to pay heavy fees, and are not allowed to
receive any goods but those Of The Com
Pany; to carry no guns, ammunition or
wariike implements, exoap; from Great
Britain; TO take no passengers except
those having special permits, aud not to
trade with the indians. Besides this.
there is a large Indian population, and
these claim the ownership Of the land aud
demand payment for the privilege Of mi
ming. This being resisted by the miners,
!t is feared that q war may break out
between the Americans aud Indians
The New Orleans Pieayuue has received
information Of the Company having
seized on American property and c-nfs-
Gated 10, for alleged violation Of tie Com-
pany's rule, and organizations are threat
eucd to resist the oppression. Conflicts
have already taken place, and altogether
the state Il affairs wear n very threaten
ing aspect, and demand the immediate
attention Of our Government.

THE BRIrIsu CorToN MANUFACTURE.
The British cotton manufacture is in
mensc. According to the Paris Constitu.
tionei, it gives occupation to between one
and two millions Of inhabitants. II feeds
entire provinces. During the late crisis,
thousands of operatives were supported
uy r'sutte et-..-t. r,-s--s s'---.. .ls.ti...-.
the Par'siau editor, would be the conse-
qucrce If those cotton manufacturers who
work FIVE days out Of six to clothc for
ciSncrs, should lose that market? who
can tell what might happen? II is then
that England might sec terrible revolu-
ton break out ut home. The cotton ques-
ton would be converted into social
question. 1t is the sentiment on that sit
uaiion which renders England so prudent
and so moderate with regard to the Uni
ted States, aad which, on the other hand,
inspires the United States with an assn
rance which, in case Of necessity. she
might carry to degree Of temerity.

FAILURE OF THE Atlantic CABLE
ENrEarElsE.-The failure to lay the telc-
graph cable across the Atlantic Is now
finally aseertaiEed. The attempt for the
present has been abandoned and the ships

were lost. Ii the second attempt,
about one hundred and twenty miles
were lost. On the 2Sth of Juuc,
the cable was again Joined, and about two
hundred and Fifty riles were paid cut,
when it parted, as it is supposed, on or
near the Agauemnou, when she was aboat
] ,Ct0 miles from the coast Of Ireland
II is stated that the feet had experienced
boia.sToGs westlsy.. ti...is.g the 'vh0le Of
the time they had been ont; but that the
operation Of laying the cable had not been
iuterlercd with on board Of the Niagara
until about 25O miles of it had been paid
out, when communication with the Aga
memnon ceased. There are many causes
alleged for its failure, but it Is impos,i-
bic to arrive at any definite conclusion as
10 the true one. 1t has been predicted
from the first by some men Of science in
the art Of telegraphing that the project of
connecting the two continents by means
Of telegraph wires must prove n failure,
with our present knowledge Of galyanic and
other electric powers. Itis argued that the
current Of electricity cannot be transmitted
under the water 5000 miles, although it
might be, as it was, Transmitted through
that many miles Of cable in the ships It Is
stated that when the cable is laid in the
water, retardation commences, and that
the further it is extended, the fccbler will
be the electric current, until it ceases to
traverse the wire. Whatever may be the
o1Itse of failure, this strengthening of
scientific doubts in regard 10 as I'r.f,s;-.
Ihility, together with the existing opp1si-
ton IL the management and designs Of
the company in regard to the project, il
will be no easy matter to enlist the sup
port Of the United States in another at
tempt to lay the cable.
