at once delivered the President of the United
States
Their purpOrt has not officially transpred but it as
cerained many of the with which the public
mind has been occupied and calculated

To this fact may be attributed the refusal
Col Kane communicate with the press. 1t is under
stood that Col Kane denies the truth of the elegraphc
announcement from Bonneville intmating that the army
would move the arrival of the peace commissioners
when fact Governor Cumming has requested it to re-
until order shall be received from Wash
ington. ..#
Contrary to the reports widely circulated Col Kane
does admit there has been any want of har
mony between Governor Cumming and Gen. John ton as
would leopard the public interests. He speaks in eulo
CYSTIC of Gen Johnston and the high of dis
cipne in which the latter maintained in his forces and
the prisewothy spirit manifested by the army during
the winter
The friends of the Administration are much pleased
with the which Col Kane is understood to al
nde to the conduct of Governor Cumming saying he
is deserving of the gratitude of the country.

the depth OF the water to be twenty five hundred

Nv immediately commenced our experiments by
hanging the Niagara and Agamemnon together by

Loo feet. The telegTaphc wire on both ships was
spiiced together on the Agamemnon, and the cable
lowered down by the machinery OF Mr. Everett,
