THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.

Birmingham is again to have the credit Of
manufacturing the wire for the new Atlantic
cable, and Mr.. JAS Horsfall has commenced
the work. Throughout the series of mishaps
which occurred in laying the cable in August
last, no fault has ever been found with Mr..
Horsfall's homogeneous wire; and the new
cable will be the same as the last in size,
material, and quality. We believe that the
conducting copper wire will also be made by
Birmingham manufacturers, and the hempen
covering Of the cable win again be made by
Messrs. J. & E. Wright, of Garrison Lane
The manufacture of the cable will be under
taken by the Telegraph Cable Construction
Company. The company intend to pick up
the cable already partly laid. and complete it;
and their engineers entertain no doubt what
ever of being able to do SO; and the new cable
is intended for second line of telegraph,
the directors feeling convinced that one
medium of communication between England
and America will be altogether insufficient
for the commercial requirements of the two
continents. Both cables will be complete
next summer; and from time to time we
shall make our readers acquainted with the
progress Of this important and gigantic un-
derstanding.4 oissai7ae ziigaoit. s.siilo-
