The Ailamric Cable.

1t is no longer news to the mass of or
readers, for it was flashed .over the wires q
week ago, that the great telegraph cable
across the Atlantic. uniting the Eastern and
Western Hemispheres, has been successfully
laid, and that since last Saturday dispatches
have been received as regularly and promptly
from London as they have hitherto been from
New Ycrt' The cable extends from Nalen>
cia. on The Western coast of ireland, to q
poin; in Trinity Bay, on the coast of lew
Founi,and, called Hearts Content. Thence
across New Foundland it comes to the Cult
fSt Lawrence which is crossed by another
submarine cable to Aspey, on the northeast
coast OF the province of Halifax, and thence
a direct land route is found via St. Johns to
New York and all the rest of the void.
The cable was laid across the Atlantic by
the Great Eastern in about lG days, the
weather being favorable all the way, and no
accident occurring Of any kind. As soon rs
the connection with the shore cable on this
side was made, the Great Eastern, with her
attendant vessels, returned to pick up the
cable lost last year. The intention Is to CON-
plete the laying Of that also, so as to have
two cables across the Atlantic in operation
at the same time.
Telegraphing across tie ocean, however,
will cost something. The following are the
rates at present:
From any telegraph station in America to
any in Great Britiao. for 20 words Oh less,
including address of sender and receiver,
e20 in gold every additional word, not ex-
ceedng five letters, 20 shillings sterling per
word.
From the same to the same in Europe,
e2l :; fo- every additional word, q shiI,
lings.
From the same to the same in Africz. ASA.
or India, not exceeding in all one hundred
letters, f25; every additional word, % shil-
hngs.
The letters in all words after the first
twenty will he counted and divided by five
each five, or fractional remainder, will be
charged as a word. Messages in cipher will
be charged double the foregoing rates.
The Associated Press have made an ar
for 200 words q day from Europe,
at, we believe, about $4,000 year.

EUROPE.

The news in detail by the. steamers, and
then the brief flashes by the Atlantic Cable
week or two ahead of the steamers, some
what confuse the news from Europe for the
past week. The steamer, for instance, tells
us Austria peremptorily declines the protfer'
ed terms of Prussia, Italy and France, and
speaks of marches, battles, seiges, &c.
While in the midst of reading this sort of
news, the Atlantic Cable, in half dozen Of
words, says a treaty of peace has been signed
between Austria and Prussia.
The substance Of the news, howe yer. is
about this: The Prussian army had arrived
making immense preparations to defend
their capital 100000 men had been gath
cred there; and 600 field guns. While these
preparations were gong on, me Italian fleet
approached Venice, and was defeated by the
Austrian feet in a greet naval battle. An
iron clad, built for tie Italians in New York
q year ago, ives sunk early in the engage
ment. Another iron clad was blown up.
The Italian feet, after short engagement,
retired, followed some distance by the Aus
TRANS.
The Prussian army entered Frankfort.
Galibaldi had met with slight success az
Angola. The Italian army operating against
Venice was making fair progress.
At about this stage, Prussia and Austria
fixed up an armistice Of five days, to which
the Italians assented: and this armistce was
afterwards extended to 80 days, which is con-
srrued as equivalent to a conclusion of peace.
The conditions of the peace axe in substance,
the surrender Of Venetia to Italy and the
exclusion of Austria from the German Inn
perial otederatlon.
Ther6 haye beeu serious reform riots in
Loudon. An immense reform meeting was
projected, to be held in Hyde Park on the
2Sd. The Government iuterfered to prevent
it, but the Prime movers determined the
meeting should be held. When the day
arrived, an immense crowd gathered around
the Park, and the police having closed the
gates, the mob broke down the iron railing
aud forced an entrance. number Of per-
sons were injured. The Horse Guards
charged and tried to disperss the people, but
failed. The ls!eet;ng, however, was adjourn
ed 20 the 3Oth. On the latter day, it seems,
The Government concluded to let the meeting
go on. $1,000 people were present. Reso.
lutions were adopted declaring the people
had no faith in the Government. There was
an immense procession, but al passed of
quietly

ApuLTEnATIoy OF FLouR.--A Galasburg
Qll.) paper makes the statement that "a
very large proportion Of the flour we buy IS
adultera,ed with the meal OF white corn"
and that this sort of fraud is practiced by
nearly all the mills of which he has examIn>
ed the flour. not excepting the mills " not
thousand miles from Galesburg." There is
nothing dceterious or injurious IN the meal
of white corn, but mixed with wheat -four, it
is very diff cult to make good, light bread of
it. The effect Of the adulteration must be
immcnlely TO injure the reputation and mar
kct value Of all western flour, and thus not
only result in pecuniary damage to the
milers themselves, but to farmers generally.

CONGRESS kND THE FENrANs.-The attempt
of the radicals in Congress % bamboozlc the
Fenians into suppo,ti the radical party, is
TOO bald and laughable to excite contempt.
The report Of Gen Banks in favor of a modl-
fcation of the neutrality laws unfortunately
came ust too late to be acted upon at tins
session WHY was it not made a month
earlier? Then, though the report talks very
fairly and plauslbly. the bill is a very ditler,
ent affair We should Ike to have our
Feniaus read that act and then point out how,
even had it passed, 1t would have let down
the bars to the Fenians into Canada. It IS
ill piece of miserable demageguery.

AIiOurHeG,

That somewhat extensive and expensive
debating cub, known as the American Con.
gress, and which has spent the last two or
three years in discvss.a- tae great question,
"What can be done for tie good of the mig
ger?'' we are HAPPY to announce, wearied of
the discussion last Sa-ariag, and adjourned
The great question remains, however, we
are sorry to say, UNDECIDED, 50 We shall have
the discussion renewed with all its ac.imonv
and infinite variations, before he people
during another weary political campaign.-
Our negrophilists believe in the parable Of
the poor woman and the unjust Judge. If
this everlasting niger talk is kept up much
longer, the people will not not only give him
the right of suffrage, but all the Offices or
anything else to get rid of the din. Beyond
voting themselves salary of $1,000 each,
and passing the usual appropriation bills, we
keliey. the last few days Of the session were
signalized By the adoption OF 10 notable
measure Of public mischief.

NEGRO SuIFFEAGE.-The Radicals in the town
of New Len X are ahead on the negro suffrage
question. y far rs they have tie power they
have adopted II in that town. J At their recent
caucus meeting there a Irrrfo was allowed TO
vote, and it 80 happened that he vote of this
negro carried the town ioI Cook. The Cook
delegates were elected 10y one majority, and the
negro voted for Cook. If the town Of New
LcnoX lad went against Cook he would have
been defeated IN the county. and perhaps in the
district. Thus he owes his nomination for Con
gresham 10 the vote of an Ethiopian. tftcr
this he will prove more devoted than ever to the
interests of his sable friends.

EouALIziNi BoUNTIEs.-A bill was squeez-
ed through [ 1aress, mt the last moment, to
equalize the bounties OF soldiers who enlisted
in the federal army during the late war. 1t
gives 800 a year to those VINO received no
bounty at the first enlistment and served
three years, and sou year 10 o'herS VINO
received the earlier and smaller bounties. 1t
appears, however, by circular from the
Treasury Department, that the bill is so
crude and defective IN its provisions, that no
attempt will probably be made to carry ont
the law Until there can be further legislation.

The Chicago Tribune APPLIES the name

cal abolition macline in Cook county, and
thereupon the Times proceeds to give sundry
sound and substantial reasons why the name
is applicable to the managers of the black
republican concern generally. The Times,
in heaping up reasons, however, eonfuses, by
giving too many that are far>fetched and
fancitul. The plain English of it is, the
barnace is shell>fish that fastens itself to
the bottoms Of ships, gripping their speed,
clogging their motion, inducing rottenness,
and, unless removed in time, destroying the
vessel. This describes exactly the political
barnace OF the radical party lie fastens
