of Taylor. With the advantages he has in

THE last Of The Atlantic Cabie.-
MIR. Marley, the electrician of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company, who has been en7
gagged in the late fruitless attempts 70 raise
the cable, has made reportvtof the Com
pany in which he says:F ~
After repeated attempts to raise the
cable by rapnelling, in order to test its
electrical condition, and with view to
land it at New Perlican, as instructed by
the Board, we regret having to reportthat,
although we nave on many occasions been
able to raise the blight, and so geton board
several pieces o. cable, in ali amounting
to about seven miles, we have invariably.
found it broken again few miles off. Mr..
Marley proceeds with a detailed, accauht
of the different voyages that have been
made, in the hope Of recovering the. cable.
Writing afterwards of the bottom near
Newfoundland he says F'Although mud
is shown on the charts, there are, most
unquestionably, rocks also, as was too
plainly Indicated by the state OF the cable,
rock weed and sea ammalCules adhering
to and surrounding it in many places,
showing that it had been suspended clear,
Of the bottom. The cable was invariably
hauled In by hand, to AVOID unnecessary
strain. The recovered cable yaEle9. IN
condition very much, and whatIs post.
important is, that even those PertiORs
which came out of the black mud were
so persisted, in numerous patches, that the
outer covering parted on board during the
process Of hauling in, and but for the deS-
teritv and courage of the men in'seizing
hold of it beyond the break, where the mon
wires stuck out like punches Of highly
sharpened needle points, we should not
have known so much of its condition.
Those portions of the recovered cable that
were wrapped with tarred yarn were
sound, the tar and hemp having preserved
the iron wires bright and free from rust.
This will be further reported on when
the pieces of recovered cable have been
more closely examined. 1t is with deep
regret 4Isat-gEe, haze to inform you that it
has been necessary to abandon the cable,
