Sensible Talk.

The following, from the New York Tri-
bune, tho leading Radical organ Of the
whole country, contains bit Of good sound
sense: 5
"Our country is again at psacs-we
trust for a century. We shall begin at
once to repair and reconstruct, to reopen
dismaAtled railroads, to rebuild burned CIT
les, and to replace the fences which have
been swept away from thousands OF square
miles BY The passage Of oontendiBg armies.
From this day forth, each day will wit
ness an increase of our national wealth, and
the census Of 1870 will show . decided
gain, both in population and property, over
that Of 1860. though half million lives
and four thousand millions worth of proper.
ty have been devoured by our civil war.
But TO this end it is essential that there
he no looking backward-no nursing ol
fueds-no cherishing Of hatreds born OF
our great contest. Let the law and its
ministers do their proper work; but lei
no man be popularity prescribed, stigmstized ed
or ostraoised, in any section, for the part
he has Dor ne in our bygone struggle. II
Unionists are to be mobbed or otherwise
hunted out in strongholas Of rebel feeling
or If those who have been rebels are TO bs
thus bufeted by Union neighborhoods, we
shall have no true peace, no revival o.
prosperity, but general bitterness and soeia
anarchy. All good men must unite il

in peace the antipathies inseparable from

ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.

When in 1858 an attempt was made to
connect England and America by tele-
graphic wire stretching from shore to shore
and sunk in the waters of the Atlantic, the
people of both he1ispheres watched the op-
GRAFTON with intense interest: Now, in
1865, while preparations are nearly COM
pleted for second effort in this gigantic
enterprise, there seems to be but little ex-
oitement on the subject. The truth is,
seven yrars constitute long period in this
age Of the world, and anything concooled
in the past SO long ago, must dwindle con.
siderably in comparison with subsequent
projects and labors. A wire across an
ocean little over 2,200 miles in extent,
loses the herculean proportions with which
it was viewed when considered alongside
of the Pacific Rairoad-an enterprise that
requires the leveling Of hills and valleys,
the tunneling OF mountains, with heavy
rails instead Of light and elastic wire. The
road is already considered fixed fact,
and the public mind is on the search for
something commensura!ely grand for its
educated longings.
However, the connection Of Europe with
America in this way is a great undertak.
ing after all. Commercially and politically
it must prove Of much service and interest
to the people Of beth shores, and, it is to be
hoped, link them together in the bonds ol
social and national amiiy.
The celebrated steamship Great Eastern
is employed to bear the cable this time
Month before last some / 400 miles of the
wire had been placed in the tanks of tha
vessel. leaving 900 miles of material tt
be supplied, This, it is thought, will take
until the first week in July to complete
when the work Of laying the wire will
commence. OF course the defects ant
mistakes Of 1858 have been rectifed. TIL,
weight of the wire has been largely in
reased-from POI pounds per nautica
mile to 400 pounds, the latter capable OF
strain Of IL times its own weight agains

FROM aEoEaIA.

Savannah dates TO the 9th instant, gives
us an interesting account Of the situation in
the Empire State Of the South. All the
important cities of the State are in the pos
session of the Union army, and everything
indicates the breaking up Of the power
which has usurped the Government there
during the post four years. Meetings are
called throughout the State to assist in re-
storing the State TO her original condition
In the Union. Before the occupation oi
Augusta by the national troops, riot broke
out among the rebel troops and the citizens
when stores were pillaged, houses fired
etc. The papers award praise to the Union
troops for their good behavior, decorum
and their assistance in quenchlng the fame.

with little appreciative recognition among
tee hero'S comrades, was brought to my no

Edward A. Potter, young soldier belong

some loose earth at the corner Of a fence,

sand dollars in gold. There are probably
many other men in the army-disgraced as
