New YoRK AND PARIs.--The Courier du Havre
in some reflections upon the Atlantic cable OBJ
serves:
New York lies about rs degrees of longitude
west of Paris The earth in its daily rotation de-
scribes 800 degrees in twenty-four hours, whence
it results that for every Is degrees to the west of
Paris the meridian there must be the loss of one
hour. At II o'clock in Paris, they who are Ia,
degrees to the west of Paris are at IL o'clock |;
and since New York is &c degrees west of Paris,
they are seven hours behind us. The writer sup
poses curious contingency-tha 1.-THE opera house
should take fire in Paris at in the evening; the
director telegraphs to the director of the opera at
New York, who receives the dispatch during the
performances, and advances to the footlights
with his best bow, f" Ladies and gentlemen-It is
with sincere regret that inform you that the
French opera was burned to the ground three
hours hence, have telegraphed to the director
my regret for the misfortune which is about to
befall him. Moreover, it will no longer suffice
to indicate date and say, such day, such an
hour;n twill be necessary to add, time at such
place. Thus the clerks of the new telegraph
office take care to add to the communications ex-
changed between the two continents the express
mention: time at Paris, or Greenwich, or New
York. or Washington.

The Vienna correspondence of the London
Times asserts that the examination of prison
ers after the battle of Custozza established
beyond the possibility of doubt that an army
of 10000 men had been engaged in the
field against $4,000 Austrians. The latter
say the Italians showed no lack of courage,
but they were outgeneralled and that the
men of Southern Europe are not equal in
strength to the Austrian troops.
We should like to hear the Italian version.

The Paris correspondent of the London
Post says al have precise information as to
the object of the Empress Carlottas visit to
Paris. 1t is to obtain release for the
present from the obligation of paying what is
due to France out of the proceeds of the
Mexican customhouse The invasions of the
insurgent bands have reduced their proceeds,
which are now confined to the port of Vera
Cruz The Mexican government requires,
even with the strietest economy, five hundred
thousand piasters monthly for its indis-
pensahle expenses, and for some time past it
has not been in the receipt of more than four
fifths of that sum from the customs. The
financial condition of the Mexican govern
ment is thus reduced to the lowest ebb.

cars, two in number. appear to be admirably
adapted to the comfort and enjoyment of
travellers, being thoroughly ventilated, pro-

The arrangement for sleeping is not tbe
berth, but cushioned chairs, with inclined
backs. The chairs can be placed in tbre.
positions; and, from a minutes experience
in one of them, are truly calculated to lu,l
the weary traveller to repose.
The finish of the coaches seemed beauti-

for seat in one of them, is not over 81 90
extra, for the tri p, and is well worth the

A NEW ERA-Low PRESSURE PACKET
LoUIsvILL EAND NEW ORLEANs.-It is with
more than ordinary qualification that we an
nounce the fact that the most magnificent
steamer that ever graced the Western or
Southern waters is now under contract for
the Louisville and New Orleans trade. She
is to be low pressure, after the style of the
Daniel Drew and other clippers, on the Hud-
son rver. With steam pressure on her
boilers of only 80 or 40 pounds to the square
inch, barely enough to break an eggg-shell,
she will achieve a speed of fourteen or nj
teen miles an hour against the mighty cur
rent of the Mississippi. That would bring
her to this port from New Orleans in less
than four days, but, including half day for
the usual delays, she would make her regular
trips in four-and-a-half days. Truly, new
era has dawned upon u.s.
The new low pressure steamer is to be built
by Captains j. S. and R. E. Neal, part own
ers of the famous steamer Indiana Her ex-
treme length is to be about $40 feet, with 81
feet beam and 8 feet hold The engines are
low pressure, the cylinders each 70 inches IN
diamter, the largest on the Western waters
The bull is to be built at the ship yard OF
Vance, Armstrong & Co., on the Marine
Railway of Alex. Temple, at Madison, Ind,
under the superintendent of Alex. Temple
one of the best practical builders in the
West. The machinery is in the hands OF the
Neal Manufacturing Co., the cabin, upper
works, outfit, &C., all complete, is to be
furnished in Louisville, and the boat Is TO
ply the Louisville and New Orleans trade
She will have the best speed Of the wind, q
gorgeous cabin, and the best and safest boat

Read the just, eloquent, and scathing re-
ply of Col. Tod R. Caldwell, in our paper to-
day, to the Editors of the Sentinel. Mr..
Gales certainly occupies very unenviable
situation as Clerk of the Commons, in rela-
ton to the non-enrollment of the bill referred
to. How will he explain it2
Col. Caldwell is pursued and assailed by
the minions of Gov. Worth, solely on &C.
count of his Union principles. He was pro-
scribed from Office as a Director on this ac
count. and some traitor is no doubt to fill
his place as President of the Western n. c.
