VANDERBILT vs.. BELLY 4 Co.-The report
in part of the New York press that the Pres
ident had determined to take possession Of
San Juan del Norte, AID that Lord Napier
approves OF such a course. is not true. The
President has resolved. however. that the
Nicaraguan Transit route shall be opened.
The trickery of the Nicaraguan government
or other officials, or the scheming Of the
steamship company monopolists, will not be
suffered to prevent the tree passage OF thft
important route. understand there is an
agreement between the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company and Commodore Vanderbilt
with reference to the Nicaragua route
This, doubtless, is to keep the enormous
profits taken from the pockets of California
passengers. and to perperate the monopoly.
There is no doubt here but Vanderbilt's
hundred thousand dollars has done the BUSH
ness eifectualiy for Belly and INLAND. I'm
der such an arrangement, said to have been
made with the Pacific Steamship Company,
Vanderbilt could well afford to outbid the
Frenchmen in buying the Martinez govern

The telegraph Cable

At the hour Of writing, no news has
vet been received either as to the sue
cess or failure Of the great Atlantic ex'
pertinent. According to the advices
received by the last steamer from Eng
land, the Niagara should have arrived
at New FoundIand on Monday last.
Since that time the entire country has
stood on tip toe, expecting each hour
and moment to receive the first tele-
graphic dispatch from Europe; but it
has been delayed day after day, until
now the minds Of the people begin to
fill with sad forebodings of a total fail
ure of the enterprise. ata
We have, from the commencement,
entertained the most sangine hopes OF
the success of the experiment ; but the
reports of the Arabia, which state IN
usually bad weather on her passage
ont, at a time when the vessels must
have been engaged in laying the cable,
and the fact that nothing has yet been
heard from the fleet, have forced upon
us the dissgreeablc conclusion that
some accident must have occurred.
The accident which has caused the
detention may not have been Of a Sc
rious character, and may haye'bcen ca
pable Of an immediate remedy. II SO
we shall shortly receive intelligence OF
the matter. 1t ia not impossible or
improbable hat before we 60 to press
we shall be able to lay before our rea-
ders the fact that on the Fourth OF
July, the anniversary of the day of the
separation of England and America,
the two countries have been reunited
by the successful laying of the Allan
tic Telegraph Gable.

The Fourth of July.

On the fourth day of July, seventeen
hundred and seventy six-just eighty
two years ago to day-the United
Estates of America first became an IN
dependent power among the nations
Of the earth. 1t is a day-an era
in the history Of our country memora-
bile above all others. What the birth
day of the Saviour is to the Christian
Church, the anniversary Of the promul-
cation Of the Declaration of 1ndepen-
dence should be, aud is, to the Ameri-
can people. 1t is a day o fproud mem
Eories to him who can trace back his
lineage TO the ancestral tree of some
hero Of the revolution, and to him
who has but recently been admitted to
the enjoyment Of the privileges of our
free institutions. it is a day Of pleasure
and qualification when he views the
prosperity to which he has helped to
contribute. Men Of all classes and ma
tions, old and young, rich and poor,
have cause for JOY and congratalation.
1T is meet her that the day should be
ushered in with the ringing of bells
and firing OF cannon and that this broad
land iron the rock bound coast Of the
Atlantic to the golden sands Of the
Pacific" should rcsound with the
sounds of general JOY and reclamation.
AS the anniversary, this year, chances
to fall on the Sabbath, the civic ccre-
monies will be deferred until to-mor-
row ; but let us not forget, when on
this holy day we assemble in the tenn
piles of the God Of our fathers, to return
TO Him a thanks for His great kind
ness to MS as a nation. To the God to
whom Washington prsyed-to the
God to whom we owe our liberties, let
us express our heartfelt gratitude.
Our time and space will not permit
JUS to recount the glorious deed, the
heroic actions, the brilliant victories.
the tolls and trials and sufferiDgs which
make up the. story Of the Revolution.
Fsin would we pause to weave a chap
Jet about the brows of each iron hearted
hero who suffered and died in the cause
pr American liberty but they need no
eulogy. No brilliant exordium will add
p single ray to the lnstre Of their
names. They still live, and their mem.
pries ere to-day fresh and green in the
hearts cftheir children and dear to all
who partake Of the blessings which
they bought with their lives. They

THE NXxkg

WT 49, rtEM&~f-W-Z -
We learn that the steamer Lady
Elgin was stranded on the reef at Cop
per Harbor, Lake Supcfior, on Sunday
evening last. A dense fog prevailed
when the steamer undertook to enter
the Harbor, in consequence of which
she lost her bearings and struck on
the point Of the rect. Efforts to get
her of proved unavailing, and she
hung there, leaking SO badly that her
pumps were insufficient to keep her
clear. Capt. T~ompkins immediately
jetted the deck load of cattle, hoping
to get off and run into shoal water at
the head Of the bay ; but the water
gained 70 fast that the getting out the
cattle did not tighten the vessel. The
cargo was then safely landed, the
steamers boat being used for lighters.
The Elgin was lying badly, but she
could easily be got off after being
pumped out.
1t 10 believed that unless some uu.
expected change in her condition
should take place, she will be got off
without sustaining much damage.
