The London Times received by the Asia,
says, in reference to the Atlantic Cable,
that the Company had made application to
the Government for guarantee Of Al per
cent. on ESQ.,, 700, subject to the same con-
ditions as those of the Red Sea line, and
this has been backed by memorials from all
the leading firms Of London, Manchester,
Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Halifax,
Bradford, Hull, Glasgow, Paisley and Nor
wich.
Surprising it to be granted, contracts will
be Immediately concluded for new cable,
and any negotiations with the American Gov
eminent will subsequently, be entered into.
No attempt can be made, with any pros
pect of success, to lift the old cable until the
return OF calm weather at the end Of April
or May, and even under the best crcustsn.
ces, the expectations with regard to the ope-
rations were not favorable.
Meanwhile, it has been definitely ascer-
tanned that the existing damage was not At

has been completed distance OF IL miles GU,

The experiments lately undertaken by per
sons previously unconnected with the enter
prise, confirm the original inference that the
main fault is about rs miles from the Irish
coast, at depth Of 900 fathoms.
There is also fault on the othor side,
which is thought to be about 800 miles from
Newfoundland. Currents, however, still con-
tinue to be received, although Of kind 90

that the consent Of tho Government will b
