ANOTHER ATLANTIC CABLH.-The fall
ure Of the Great Eastern has not discour-
aged either the shareholders Of the Trans
Atlantic Cable Company or the new
French company which has obtained per-
mission to lay down a cable between
France and the United States. N. Alberto
Belestini has undertaken this enterprise at
his own risk. But this time the company
does not intend to submerge q cable for
any enormous distance, as there will be
intermediate stations. The following is
the track contemplated: From Paris to
to Lisbon; and thence to Cape St. Vim
cent, by land from this last place to
Canary Islands, along the coast Of Moroc-
CO; from the Canary Islands to Cape
Verd, along the African coast, with sta
tons at st. Louis (SenegaD and Goree /;
from Cape Yerd to Cape St. Rogue, on
the coast Of Brazil "a distance less than
one-half that Of the cable intended to be
laid by the Great Eastern); from Cape
St. Rogue to Cayenne, along the American
coast or probably by cables connecting
the principal West India Islands. The
enterprise is more easily practicable than
that conceived in England. The only
difficulty will be to secure the preserva-
ton of their line on the African coast, and
that security may be obtained by means
Of guard stations. The company will
have a concession for one hundred years,
and the French Government will abandon
the right of making any concessions dur
ing that time. A subvention of four
millions Of francs payable by installments,
will be granted when the company shall
have obtained the authorizations from all
the governments over whose territory the
electric cable is to pass. The electric
communication between Paris and the
Canary Islands is to be completed within
three years, and the whole line within
6ve.-PGris N0rd.

EFFECTS OF THE EARTHQUAKE AT THE
NEW ALNADEN MINES. "A gentleman
from the New Almaden Mines informs the
American Flag that had the recent severe
earthquake taken place any other day than
Sunday, there would have been a great
loss Of life in the mines. Under ground,
nearly all the timbering was crushed, rem
dering it necessary to repair them before
work can be resumed. Above the Palmer
tunnel all the mining operations are stop
ped until the damages can be repaired.
The company's store was shaken down.
and the entire damage is estimated by
some to be from $4,000 to $4,000. The
dust flew so during the shock as to fill the
air, and the boulders rolled down the hill
sides, creating a scene which struck terror
to the hearts Of all who witnessed it.

any, for those who were on the watch to see
the capture, if they had desired to do So
splendid supper was prepared by Mrs.
johnson for the occasion, and the raiders
very promptly captured the good things pre-
pared by surrounding and taking them in.

A man in Darlington who has for some
time been suffering strange alterations Of
mind, few days since tried to force stone
down his throat using stick for that pur-

of his neck, causing death. A post norton
examination Of the unfortunate man deyel-
oped the astonishing fact that his stomach

SAD AND FATAL AccIDEST.-It is with eI-
treme regret that me have to record the death
of Col. VIM. Homer Custom House Agent,
by drowning. On the day before yesterday,
he started on horseback for Elizabethton,
and while attempting to cross the Watauga
River at Harris Ford, four miles this side Of
Elizabcthton, his horse stumbled and fell,
while in deep water, and there being no one
near enough to render him any assistance,
he was drowned. His body WAS recovered
the same day. HIS remains were taken
through this place on yesterday mornings
train, on their way to Knoxville, where his
bereaved family reside. Col. Homer, was one
of East Tennessees best and truest Union
men, and she will mourn his loss, as one of
her noblest sons. He was an old and esteem
I'd citizen of Knoxville, and leaves family
and countless friends to mourn his unfortu-
nate and untimely death On the establish
ment of the Custom House, in Knoxville, in
1868, he was appointed by Governor Brown
low, a special Custom House Agent, and was
most faithful and efficient officer.
