OF jocose trader the other day, which was
put into bags, and, as it was not convenient
for him to take it away at once, left it in
the store till the next morning. In the
morning he called, and finding that the rats
had gnawed sundry holes and abstracted
some of the contents of the bags, he asked
for an abatement of the price. "Oh no sir, "

The London Herald describes in detail soIne of the
arrangements making for the recovery of the Atlantic
Telegraph cable, as follows:
Three vessels including the Great Eastern will be
provided with graphing apparatus. Last year. it
may be remembered, the graphing was done with
mzkeshift appliances. In fact the graphing irons
we're only buoy ropes, and the SWivels. which broke
whie the cable was being hauled up, never in
tended to bear any such strain that to which they
are subjected In the new graphing tackle there will
be 10 swiyels perhaps no shackles. Each line
will DO, If possible in piece certainly not in
more than two, Joined together by q strong shackle
There is, therefore, little fear that if the cable is
grspped, Of which there can be no reasonable doubt
in the mind Of any one conversant with the subject
C viii be brought 10 the surface. And there is the
moro probability Of this, because the cable will bR
Srapped IN three places at intervals of about two
miles. One vessel will grappe, and Unnecessary cut
ler end by means Ola steel blade set in the graphing
iron, the middle ship will haul up and the third yegs
will also raise the cable to lessen the strain. There
Will, therefore be three bights the cable or two
hights on end and this end will be prevented from
SLIPPING by the formation Of the graphing iron in
which the pie will be jammed. No one connected
with the project appears to entertain the slightest
doubt about the success of this section oft"
