NEW York, Aug. 30.
A private letter from London 18th inst,
states that the Hughes machines were placed
on the line Of the electric telegraph compa-
ny between London and Liverpool on the
l4th inst, and had greatly astonished the
telegraph managers by their wonderful per-
Torrance, working with the most perfect
regularity at the rate of from 35 TO 40 words
per minute between the cities, notwithstand-
ing aheayy rain which had lasted two days
and disabled ell other INSTRUMENTS.
The speed Of the Hughes machine is about
IS per cent. greater than the English ma
chines, which do not record the messages
transmitted, whilst the Hughes machines
print every word in plain letters.
We are glad to learn from the same source
that negotiations have been opened by the
Atlantic Telegraph Co., looking to pur-
chase of the patent OF the Hughes invention
with view to its immediate use on the At
lantic cable.
The agent of Professor Hughes is willing
to guarantee that the machines will transmit
intelligence 20 per cent. faster and with
greater accuracy than can be done by any
other system.
Prof. Whitehouse, who is working the ca
BILE, claims to be able to work at the rate Of
one word per minute, but the great difficulty
Of controlling his peculiar magnet occasions
the loss OF great portion Of each in ad-
justing.
The Hughes machines will probably be
put upon the Atlantic cable early in Septem
Der.

Tho following item which We clip fsom the
New Yorh Tribune, gives an inkling Of the
effect Of the eight times" on cash sales in
the East, and furnishes melancholy indica-
ton Of similar sacrifices yet to be endured in
the West:
Mr.. Aianson Robinson, Receiver Of the
HOLSTER Bank Of Buffalo, sold on Tuesday O
large amount Of notes, bonds, mortgages,
Judgments, real estate, Co., belonging TO the
bank. The salcs we're made for cash down,
and amounted in the gross to $l6,067 49,
Many OF the claims such - notes and judg.
ments, to tho amount Of about one hundred
thousand dollars, brought Jess than three per
cent. on the dollar. A mortgage Of 81, 150,
secured on the farming lands 81 Grand island,
sold for 81, 100, and others In the same pro.
portion. Tho Receivers adjusted claims
against the bank were taken ~ cash IN pay
Ae1. eor bills. TIE gale Of real estate. un-
der the circumstances, brought fair prices,
although the gross amount Of sales, for 20
large share Of its assets. must be anything
but fattering to the stockholders.

A Pair Of Presidential Aspira N - :.
Bright and ElideII.

A Pair Of Presidential Aspiran ts..
bright and ElidelI.
The Washington correspondent OF the New
York Timos thus gives sketch of twoprom-
inent Presidential aspirants:
Among the combinations forming for the
next canvass, is that of Senators Bright and
Slidell for the Presidency and Woe. Presiden-
cy. Which Of these distinguished aspirants
is to be the FIRST, and which is last, is not yet
definitely settled. Each Of them has been
nominated for the frst place by his particu-
lar supporters, but ~ they are fast friends,
and not rivals, the point Of precedence will
be amicably settled between them.
Messrs. Bright and Slidell are both New
Workers. They left their native heath at an
early age. The Empire State presented an
unfavorable field for the exercise of their pc
culiar talents, on account Of excessive com
petition. Their special accomplishments con.
sst in their unrivaled powers of management
and intrigue. They sought "fresh fields and
pastures new'' in the South and West. They
are both fighting men. Slidell fought duel
with Stephen Price, in which he drew his ad-
versary's claret. Retiring to New Orleans
he married fortune and became known af
| q good shot, and for his invincible hands al
"brag." As politician, his skill and bold.
ness de6ed competition. In 1874 he was the
ter-spirit Of the Placquemincs Eruption,
whereby the down.trodden and oppressed
Dutch and Irish, who, by the bigotry Of Lou
isiana laws were precluded from voting in
New Orleans, were enabled, by voting early
and often, to turn the State over from Clay
to Polk.
Mr.. Bright removed to Indiana, married a
Kentuckv heiresa with drovps az neDroes
went over the line to fight political rival,
amicably adjusted the dispute, but extin.
guished the foe by the arrangement, and has
been ever since the autocrat Of the Indiana
Democracy.

CT There scarcely ever was q finer COM
pliment paid to lady than that which was
addressed by Dean Swift to q wife who was
always praising her husband:
You are always making god Of your spouse,
But that neither reason or console nee allows
Perhaps you may think tits In gratitude due,
And you adore him because he Adores you.
Your arguments weak, and 90 you will find,
For you, by this rule, must adore ali mankind
