+, THE TELEGRAPH CHILE.

In the accounts given Of the recent operations OF tho
telegraph fleet it mentioned that the second break
ing of the cable occurred at tho bottom Of the when
the ships about eighty miles apart and stimuli
aneously discovered on both that the continuity had
entirely ceased. The New York Tribune states that t
best explanation Of this phenomenon has been given M
Mr. Bogardus, OF that city.
At depth of two miles the water fltering through
the wire covering of the cable excrts the gutta pech
within pressure Of five thousand pounds per SQUARE
inch and greatly reduces it's original bulk The sanaI
of the wire covering thus left unsustaned and ma
to ovee each other In this position the strands Of h
wire covering sackened, and the guta perchs and
telegraph wires being too weak to sustain the str
engthwise, broken asunder. Tho strain upon trl
cable is proportional To the length Of tho portion hang
ing belong the point at which the strain takes place
Consequently this strain decreases in going downward
while on the contrary. the compression of the guaI
percha in the cable increases with the DEPTH and at
height from the bottom OF the the guta percha
sufficiently compressed to allow the everything of the COY
erng strands while there is still enough Of the cabehan
ing below to break tho conductor by its weight ~
breaking has in instance, very likely, occurred
this point. From few experiments with hydrauA
press and six feet OF the cable the company might bay
learned what they have demonstrated in moro
pensve way, that the covering strands Of flexible CAB
int nded for great depth must not BIO wound around M
caly, but laid parallel to the axis.

NEWSPAPERS AND NEWSPAPER REsPoNsIBnITIEs-
Since the general establishment of schools,
and men can read, write, and cipher, we had sup
posed that newspapers publishing articles or letters
without comment, cast them off on the community
on their own credit and responsibility alone. We
did not dream that such articles, without any en-
dorsement could be received as expressing the
views of the editors Of the paper. newspaper
ought to be vehicle for the publication of general
news and, far possible lay before its readers
every variety of opinion. If we had the space we
should not fail to quote literally from the opposition
press, and offer our columns to those who might be
disposed to address the people upon political and
scientific subjects. What is said in editorial
columns may be taken the opinions Of tho U,,isn
what is said elsewhere in tho paper, we beg the
captious patriot to believe is presented for general
reading and for just what it is worth. We publish
ed not long ago the Chicago speech of Mr.. Senator
Douglas, and recently, Mr.. Duff Green's letter
the public did not suppose endorsed either as
we certainly do not.
