LORD NAPIER AND SIR JOHN CRAmPToN-Lord
Napier seems to follow Sir John Champion hard;
he succeeded the baronet at Washington, and now
that Champion is transferred from st. Petersburg
to Madrid, his Lordship once more fills the vacant
post. 1t is strange to notice of how much conse-
quence the gentler sex has been amid these diplO-
matte changes. Sir John is recalled from Russia,
not TOR political reasons, not for making a bad
treaty, or being overreached in cabinet intrigue,
but for marrying an opera singer. Miss Victoria
Bale, (who captivated the natty old bachelor,
whom no Washington bellies could ensnare) as an
English ambassadress, took precedence of many of
the great court ladies on the Neva of course these
great ladies could not tolerate that who had
sung for their amusement the stage, should have
the pas IN their own drawing rooms; they submit
ted while they must, but soon got up cabal which
the English Government itself not strong
enough to resist: and after taking Sebastopol
WAS Sidu enough 10 GetlTe In the per-
son of her ambassador, from St. Petersburg. So
the indignant pride of the Russian Princesses was
appeased They no longer follow in the wake of
an eX singer from the opera. Lord Napier, too, is
sad, in Washington gossip, to have been summon
ed from our Kepub ican Court because of the of
fence the rumOrs of his gaanries gave in the rigid
| circles of St. James, The Saque law is thus eff
| tectuay abolished; woman's rights are maintained,
her influence felt alike in the desPotic atmosphere
OF Russian capitals and under the Democratic skies
Of America. Place oHr dames.-N Y Express.
| FAILURE or SUMMARIZE CABLEs-The London
Times remarks upon the failure of many of the re-
cent submarine telegraph lnes:- No class of scen-
tiic undertaking has fallen into such universal dis
repute. Reckless haste, Incompetent supervision
and divided cOunsels characterize the various en-
| terprises. Only two years since an immense sum
was hopelessy lost with the Atlantic cable and but
few months since cable of VIGOROUSLY unsuita-
bic construction, and totally unadapted for its pur-
pose, laid and lost in the Red Sea- and the conn
| try thereby sadded with the payment of AZ per
cent interest capital of $500 600 for fifty years
This has been followed by another signal failure
! and waste otmoney. The new and costly cable for
| the Rang0on and Singapore line is now found to
contain within itself the elements for its own de-
structon; such undoubted evidences of cheating -
or spontaneous combustion, having set in as to rem
der the despatch of the vessels containing it to
warm climate impossible. Scientific men who have
been consulted, think the disaster is due to the ex-
hidatiOn of the iron wires but it may more reason
ably be ascribed to the fact that the hemp serving
between the iron wires and the gutta percha core
