A New Light.

The London correspondent OF the New
York Commercial Advertiser writes that a
new discovery is about to be introduced,
which, il 1t realizes the averments of the pa !.
tentee, will revolutionize all our existing
methods of illumination. 1t was first public.

Cherbourg, while her Majesty was passing
at night frorn her own ship to that of the
Emperor. The raw material may be cheap
gas, made from the most common materials,
and the increase OF brilliancy is obtained by
passing it through a new medium, which is
said to have all the advantages of lime with.
out it's destructibility. The calculations put
forth are, that light equal to 500 street
lamps, and lasting twelve hours, can be OBJ
tanned at cost equal to s74 cents, or 3s.

any ordinary gas burner. 1t is asserted also,
that the requisite apparatus is cheap, perfect.

by child /; that the light is free from SINE II,
very white, extremely pure, and characteriz.
ed by the property of burning steadily, and
without diminution. The patenlee is the
Hon. w. E. Fitzmaurice, an the statements
made are so far endorsed by respectable and
competent persons as to lead to the hope
that the discovery may prove what it is re.
presented to be.

The Overland Route.

What difficulties the Overland Mail coach
es have to encounter may be imagined from
the following, published Ia the St. Louis
Republican, after the arrival Of the twenty.
first mail, which left San Francisco on the
25th Of last month:
"The roads were in very good condition
from San Francisco to Giia River. At the
latter place they encountered the effects Of
recent rains in that region, and the roads
continued in wretched state the rem ainder
of the route, but particularly bad east from
Fort Belknap. The coach was overturned
three times, once three miles this side OF
Van Buren, Arkansas, and twice the other
side of Fort Yuma, California, but Fortunate
ly no one was injured. twenty-five hours
were consumed in coming the first seventy.
five miles from Tucson. Through Apache
canon the snow was fifteen inches in depth.
At Apache they were forced to leave the
coach and walk distance of twelve miles
in the night, through snow two and half
feet in depth. By this operation Mr. Boards
ley had his feet badly frozen. He says he
never before experienced such night of
suffering. Along this portion of the route
it required twenty -four hours to travel dis.
lance of ffty.eight miles,"

Mrs. Cunningham IN.

"Burleigh," the New York correspondent
Of the Boston Journal, who is understood to
be the Rev. Matthew Hale Smith, Mrs. Can
ningham's counsel at one stage of her case,
corrects paragraph which we copied from
the Rochester Union. He states that Mrs.
Cunningham lives in Forty eighth street:
She is not in "easy circumstances" but
is reduced and poor. The "elegant man
sion," is house in block on the new up
per street, for which she is indebted to the
kindness Of the owner till Spring. Her
house is not entirely furnished !; the most OF
it not ct all; and what is, in the commonest
style. She has wasted all the property she
had, and is not able to take house Of COM
fort. All the ordinary avenues of employ
ment open to most women are closed against
her. The prejudice against this woman was
never stronger than now, and, having spent
oil she had to defend herself in courts of
law, she is now very poor, and would keep
clearinghouse or do any honorable thing
to get living if she could do SO. Her daugh-
ter Augusta has not been "married to q
Southern planter" but to young man in
this city, who has not one dollar to rely up.
on but what he earns from day to day and
the rumor about Helen is as apocryphal as
the rest of the story.

ing the Atlantic Cable.


The following dispatch, dated Boston. De.
cember 18th, is published in the PhiladeI-
phia Gazette:
A meeting of the merchants of this city is
to be held here to morrow, at which we learn
that more astounding fraudulent representa-
tlons OF the working of the Atlantic Cable
will be exposed, and measures will be adopt.
ed to defeat the scheme Of grand telegra.
phic monopoly in the United States, by the
construction of new cable line to Nova
Scotia, in pursuance of Mr.. Gisborne's pro.
posal, and of new lines extending from New
York westwardly.
We learn that the most conclusive evi.
dence exists that the whole representation
made in the papers Of this country, and sim.
ultaneously in the London papers, on the
10th OF August last respecting the transmits.
sion OF the alleged first message of the direc-
tors, giving "Glory to God," &c. and of
the Queens message to the President Of the
United States, was false, and a fraud upon
the public Of the two countries and that
other, no less fraudulent esentations of
the working Of the cable, are susceptible of
proof and exposure.
VIII O0 Cdlleu oH 10 invite from
the President, information of the time when
the Queens message was first informally,
and subsequently,, under an alleged transmits.
sion OF it over the cable, communicated to
him.
This is of no small interest to the govern
ments of both the United States and Great
Britain and 10 the people of the two coun-
tries rich developments are forthcoming.
The money is all subscribed for Gisborne's .
iine' and 1t will be completed to Halifax ear
ly in the spring.

Serious Accident.

A countryman came TO marke yesterday,
with two.horse wagon, loaded with dressed
pork, and failing to dispose of this, he start.
ed towards home, driving down State street.
At the foot of State street the river runs
high over the wharf, and the countryman
not knowing the depth of the water. drove
off the wharf into the stream, and before he
was aware of it, bis horses were strugg ling
to keep their heads above water. One ol
the borses, fine looking and valuable ami.
NAL, was drowned, and the other one was
taken oUt badly injured, if not ruined. The
driver himself, whose name it was impossi.
BILE to learn, narrowly escaped with his life,
and not until he got cold bath which will
serve him as lesson for the balance of his
life. The wagon was fshed out, much bro.
ken, and the dressed hogs were a total loss
the stream having washed them away before
they could be reached.--Ohio Statesman.

DEAA SIR I'VE have the honor to pre-.
sent you a specimen of gold obtained from
the newly. discovered Gel Dorado" in West
ern Kansas, This specimen is part OF
several ounces purchased by Us from two
miners by the name of Russell, natives Of
Georgis, by whose adventures 10 search of
gold the gold mines Of Ksnsas have been
developed. They left this city about the let
Of April last, In company With nine or ten
others, and prospected the whole Of that
country lying on the eastern slope Of the
Rocky Mountains, 10 the vicinity Of spikes
Peak" finding gold, In greater or less abun.
dsnce, ct almost every step.
From them We haVe obtained the follow.
ing infotmationA which has been abundantly
corroborated:
!. The gold 10 found on the sarjaee, and,
at various distances, to the depth Of eight
feet.
2. The "ted rock" has not been reached
by any Of the miners.
8. With the Fudest implements, they
were able to obtain from o. to $6 per day.
4. With improved means, such ss "slus.
ees" and "toms" there are "miRions of acres"
Ito use their own phrase,) that will produce
$40 per day. and many places as much as
$40.
8. That this new "gold region'' differs
from California in this The gold is scat.
tered broadcast over q vast extent, and not
found in "pickets, ,""gulches" and "ravines,"
as in California thus insuring support, at
least, for every man that is disposed to la
Dor.
8. The specimen accompanying this note
constitutes part of the labor OF the Messrs.
Russell In ''more than .fve hundred different
Places"
Z. The last place they labored was at
Cherry Creek" sixty miles north. east from
Pixies Peak" This creek empties into
he South Fork of the Platte, on the south
tide Of that river. At this point, Cherry
Creek, they found the richest "diggings."
8. The distance from this city to Cherry
Creek is "GboWt sir hundred miles," by way
# the Fort Riley road and the Smoky Hill
ork Of Kansas River, which is altos ether
say the Russells) the best route.
Very respectfully,

"The measure was wise, and has been
