To meet him here today in such q manner,
and 70 know that you, like us, rejoice that
the war is over; that right has triumPhed,
and that there has been no compromise
with treason, is indeed pleasure
ITis with pride declare that Ohio has
done her full duty in the struggle that
brings this triumph. Our citizens and
soldiers, East and West, and even our toes
of the south, acknowledge most willing, J

II may be, in this war that ends most glor
/ iouslv. and that meet here to-day, my
Chief. under whose Leadership we tough
our wsy through difficulties and met with
success. This is all intended to say. IN
not a time nor place for me to say more
onlv of the great triumphsl coming
peace in which we rejoice, that the old hsI

The London Times, of the Both ult, has
a long article on the Atlantic Cable Many
of the facts We sntieipstedin our article of
yesterday, those especially in reference to
the preparations for the laying ofthe cable
and the departure of the Great Eastern
We append, however, an interesting
extract from the article, concerning the sr-
rangements on board the Leviathsn.
"The paying out machine is being fixed
up on board the ship, and the leading
t-ansh has alsn hean- rnnnlated along the
deck. This latter is plain timber frame,
supporting a semi-circulsr trough of iron,
down which the cable is drawn to the
paving out machine, the friction of its pas
ssge sufieiDg to keep il Haut' and obviste
all chance of kinks entering the machine.
All three tanks containing the cable have
now been completely filed with water, and
the wire, in fact, is IS much submerged now
as it will be st the bottom of the Atlantic
with this difference, that the pressure of
the immense depths of the ocean will ms
terisliy improve the condition of the cible
by the compression of the gutta -perchs-
In these three tanks the temperature and
quantity of water are kept precisely equal,
and series of electrical tests have been
taken for the last three days, and will be
continued for five days more, in order, from
the results of all, TO obtain standard Of
what the condition of the cable should be
while paying out. The contents Of
the three tanks = that is, the entire
length of two thousand five hundred miles
of csble-have now been coupled up, and
signals are sent through morning and
evening. These signals show the insuls-
tion and conductiYity of the wire to be
almost absolutely perfect, even in an
electrical sense. Thus, even with the
rough instruments, message of four words
was sent through yesterday in q minute
and q quarter. The company, however,
believe they have succeeded in designing
instruments which can more than double
this rate of signalling. But even taking
the four words in q minute as a fair
standard, the yield Of profit from such q
wire at the rate of 60 per word, which we
believe is to be the ciarge, would be I'M
mense, and, allowing for repeats and SER
vice signals, amount to more than q million
annually. Certainly all that science and
skill can do has been done for this cable,
and everything now depends on moderate
ly fair weather for the voyage. If that
additional good fortune should only be
vouchssfed to the undertaking, hourly
