of e1 President Piercs's tour in Europe, says:-
"All along the route, from Lisbon to Marseilles,
he has been the recipient Of distinguished consid-
Grafton from public officers and private citizens

British naval forces at that point, extended mark
ed courtesies, and urged the e1-Presdent and Mrs.
Pierce to take passage for Tangiers in one OF her
Maiesty's public armed vessels. At Marseilles,
the French authorities, headed by the Prefcct and
the military commander, were especially attentive

RESPONDENT of the National Intelligencer suggests
the practicabiity Of laying submarine cable be-
tween Europe and America by the way Of the
Azores and the Bermudas. The writer says:
.The distance from Bermuda to Fayal is less than
from Ireland to New Foundland. These islands
stand invitingly off the coasts of Europe and A
merca They stand rs herculean pillars on which
TO rest the cable Ifa wire was laid hctween them,
shorter ones could be carried to the shores Of the
Old and the New World. One wire between these
islands would serve sll practical purposes for a
long time to come. The route BY Fayal would
accommodate England with one wire, France with
one, Spain and Portugal with one, and Madeira
and Africa with one. On our side the Bermuda
route would be convenient for one wire to New
England, one for the Middle States and the West,
one for the Southern States and California, one for
Cuba and Mexico and one for the West Indies and
South America"
