THE ATLANTIC rrLEGRApB

Great confidence is felt that the first expert.
ment Of laying the Atlantic cable will be a sue.
cess. The company have established a tariff
OF charges, by which forty words from London
to New York, with exchange added, will cost
about $500, and the cost to the daily press Of
the country of that number Of words daily will
be about LEO per week. The executive com.
mittee Of the Associated Press have arranged
for two daily reports, Of not less than twenty
words each, and as many more as the impor
lance OF the news may justify. The difference
of time between London and New York,
namely five hours in favor Of the latter, al
lows q large margin for the reception of news
for the morning and evening journals The
reports will be prepared at London and Liy
erpool respectively at 3 a. m. and 3 d. m. As
3 a. m, London time, is equivalent to 10 d. M
of the previous day. New York time, the des-
patch Of that hour will doubtless arrive here
In good season for publication in the morning
journals Of the day Of its date; and as D. m.
London time, is the same as 10 a. m, New
York time, il follows that the news sent at that
hour should reach here in time for publication
In the evening journals of the same dav. 1t is
intended by the executive committee that the
news reports by the Atlantic cable shall be
first published in the regular morning and
evening editions, and every possible care will
be taken to keep the Press reports strictly pri.
yate, here as well as at all other points until
the regular publication hours in the morning
and afternoon.

LOCAL NEWS.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-This morning patrol
man Wilson of TIE Second Ward was engaged
in shooting dogs according to the order OF the
authorities. He shot one at the corner of M
and 18th streets. The cartman removed the
dog TO the cart, and driving on saw a colored
man named Robert Floyd stopping behind a
fence about twelve feet from the line of the
shot, who seemed to be IN pain, and asked him
what was the matter. He said he was shot
The officer went TO him, lifted him up. ana
seeing the blood trickling from his left breast
proposed TO go TO pump and wash the blood
away, and see n he was badly hurt. On the
way he felt sick. and the cartman threw the
dogs out OF the cart and laid the wounded man
in, and carried HIM to his home in the alley
between 1Uth and 18th and NJ and N streets.
Officer Wilson sent for DR.. Smith who came
promptly, and after probing the wound. which
had the appearance of a cut rather than a
round shot hole pronounced the wound not
necessarily dangerous. and prescribed the
proper course. The officer and Roundsmau
Walker contributed what money they had
with him to pay immediate expenses. directed
the procurement OF proper nurse, and prom
ised TO see all expenses paid. They then re-
ported TO Superintendent Richards, who di-
rected an Investigation of the affair, which
VIII be had this afternoon. The only expla-
nation OF the affair lie that the single shot
causing the wound, glanced either from the
bricks or curbstone, and the shot beng fiat
tened produced the cut instead of a round
wound. Shooting dogs is a dangerous as well
as disagreeable duty. This is not the first of
many accidents from glancIng shot, though il
Is probably the most serious.

THE FOREIQN NEWS.

The additional foreign news we publish this
morning Will be read with interest. Notwith
standing the Paris Aoniteur asserts that the ne
gotIalons are progressing favorably, and that
there was no doubt an armistice would be
agreed TO, yet the fact is un questioned that the
Prussians were still advancing towards vi
emma, and that the Italians were advancing in to
NenItia. Italy demands as the terms of an ar
misiice the immediate possession Of two of the
forts of the Quadrilatral. one of which shall be
Peschiera. Prussia requires the possession Of
Whist she has conquered. The exclusion of Aus.
trla from the Germanic Confederation, and for
herself the exclusive command of the military
and naval force OF the Confederation. How
these demands are TO be satisfied, and the ex-
pectations of Napoleon gratified, without es-
sentially weakening Austria, and thus de.
stroying the ''balance of power" we cannot
perceive. That Prussia will be allowed to
build up an immense and formidable German
empire In the center of Europe, overawing and
threatening the smaller powers, we cannot be-
ieve. Hence we are of opinion with the Lon
don Globe that the continent is on the brink of
an European war. Alrecdy Napoleon is said
to threaten an armed Intervention
Wepubnsh this morning a despondent procIa-
matien from the Emperor Of Austria acknowl
edging the great disaster to his army but de-
cIarlng mat ne ''will never sanction a treaty of
peace by which the fundamental conditions of
Austria's position as a great power would be
shaken" Sooner than do this he will scarry on
the war to the utmost extremity"
The graphic description of the battle Of Sa-
dowa- which will be found elsewhere shows
that If was one of the greatest and most deci-
sive battles Of modern times; far more impor.
iant In Its extent and results than we had
reason to suppose from the scant particulars
first furnished by telegraph.

COMMODORE RODGERS AND ADMIRAI


The following despatch has been received at
the Navy Department:
u. 5. S. NAEDERBILT, San Francisco. lima
June IS, lS66.-Sir have the honor to correct
an error which have noticed in the newspa.
pers.
1t is said that Mr.. Layard, in the British
House of Commons, had stated that nv report
of the bombardment Of Valparaiso was incon
sIstent with the report of Admiral Denmap.
Either the newspaper reporter must have been
mistaken in the scope Of Mr.. Iayard's speech
or Mr.. Layard must have read Admiral Den
mans speech carelessly.
My statement that Admiral Uenman CON.
sented at first to Join me in opposing the bonn
bardment, but afterwards decided not to take
by the evidence OF Commodore DeCourcey,
commanding H. Il. NJ. frigate Leander who
heard the agreement.
1t is probable that the Admlral's first resolve
was known in his squadron. 1t was declared
by the British merchants Of Valparaiso in for.
NAL resolutions. 1t is involved In a sentence
Of the letter Of Admiral Nunez, republished in
the New YORK papers Of May 18th, in which it
is said the English Admiral stated to him that
Admiralty to remain passive spectator of such
a deed.
Under such a weight Of evidence as to the
course OF Admiral Denman, that must neces.
sarily be mistake which denies his course
l regret this newspaper statement the more
since 1t places Admiral Denman in a painful
position.
1 have the honor to be. very respectfully.
your obedient servant,
JOHN RODGERS, Commodore.

MILITARY ARRESTS IN LOUISIANA.

General Baird, commanding the department
of Louisiana, has republished the order OF
Lieut. General Grant, directing district and
post commanders to arrest, detain and bring
to trial all persons who have committed crimes
and offences against officers. agents and citi.
zens Of the United States, without regard to
color in cases where civil law has failed to
administer justice, and publishes Herewith
the following additional instructions: "In the
city Of New Orleans arrests under this order
will only be made from these or superior head.
quarters, and when an arrest is made at
another post or place within the department,
1t must be predicated on afidavits exhibiting
the facts Of the case. and full report of the
arrest with the original papers ON which it is
based will he at once forwarded for the con.
siderati0n of the commanding general. The
duty Of post commanders will then cease, and
the prisoners will be disposed of by orders
from these Headquarters. 1t is belle we'd that
in many cases the ends Of justice will be sub
served by deferrlng the arrest in the first in.
stance, and forwarding the papers to the Com.
manding General for final action here This
course may be pursued when the post com
mander is assured that the party accused
will not attempt an escape, and the delay oc.
casioned be but limited. The utmost vigilance
and promptness will be required Of post COM
manders in carrying out the DIVISIONS of this
order, and an omission to act in q proI er case
will be dealt with as q dlsobedience of orders ~

THE CALLED JADE wINOrs

The Chronicle is furiously wrathful over the
defeat of its lobby scheme to get possession of
the canal franchise and Is absolutely so beside
itself with rage as to accuse those who voted
against its scheme Of plumber of having been
briJedf 1t says in so many words elf money
was spent there can be no uestion as to whom
it was expended on" &c. 1--WE respectfully
call the attention of Union members of Con.
gress to the fact that a paper published by one
of their own officers makes the deliberate
charge that those who voted against the plum.
dering canal and sewerage company scheme
were bribed so to do. In the same connection.
the Chronicle descends to the most pitIful tai
sification in regard to the Mayor, the city gov
eminent, and this paper. The Chronicle is un-
scrupulous enough to put a string of utter
ances into the mouth OF the Mayor never
made or thought of by him: and also to at
tribute similar language to this paper. We
wish the ChroniHe to understand that the Star is
not the organ Of the Mayor or anybody else, as
its entire history has abundantIy demonstrated;
and we have further to say that the Chronicle

said in regard to the attempts of the Chronicle
lobby to get their plundering ssCanaI and Sew

was this:

We made no charge of members heinz

the Chronicle lobby in :.dining and winingn had
been swasted"-produced no results, or an
opposite result from what the lobby desired
The day for purchasing votes by ..dining and
wming" members of Congress has gone NV,
years ago. a fact the Chronicle lobby has ms.
now discovered. This was a great mistake
made by the lobbyists OF the Canal and Sew.
erage Company plundering scheme Another
great mistake made by those spectators was
in being humbugged by the Chronicle into the
belief that the influence Of its columns was ALI
powerful in carrying through a lobby scheme.
The fact is the Chronicle is so notorious,v a
lobby organ that its advocacy Of any plumber
scheme before Congress causes it at once to no
looked upon with suspicion.
