the English papers. After detailing the scien-
ti6e results of his experiments, he concludes
AZ follows: I am of the opinion that serious
fault exists about two hundred and sixty three
statute miles from Valentia, measured along
the cable. and that the cable between the spot
and this shore is comparatively perfect. Tests
from hare can not now decide whether the
cable is mechanically severed, as all tho AT
tennis to detect the reception OF the most IN
tense currents from the opposite shore have
long since proved fruitless; still, from various
circumstances attendant on the decline OF the
insulatine, there is every reason to believe tnat
the continuity, both Of the cable and conductor,
is perfect. Whether any other faults beyond
the one alluded to, it is impossible to ascertain
by tests from Valcntis, and the fact that tne
signals received at Valentia were always pet,
ter than those received at New Eoundiand
proves, undoubtedly, that worse insulatine mas
always been near Valentia. :.
"Therefore it seems probable that II the fault
which..exists on this coast, which, very likeiy,
forms the principal cause of leaking, could DO
removed, the insulation would be SO tar I'M
proved as to render the cable again avaiiaoe
for signaling, provided the fault, whicn Is
said by tn se who have tested from Newfound-
land to exist near Trinity Bay, was repaired"

daring and extent.
