Company at London. that on the 4,h inst, at
$50 p. b., a large iceberg grounded Oh the
harbor Of Hearts Content. Newfoundland.
about II miles n. n. W. Of northern point. and
about two hundred yards easl Of Ihe 1865 cable.
in about sixteen fathoms Of water. Oa the 9th
instant the iceberg disappeared, but in pas'ing
over the cable Of 1855, such damage WAS done
that the signals through that cable became i'm
perfect, ard have now ceased. The capacity OF
the cable Of 1865 exceeds tho requirements Of
the business; great as it ia bu. the company ex.
poets to repair the damage to that >of 1855
without delay.
