In May, 1868, the Great Eastern
will set sail from the shores Of France. on
mission of great Importance TO the peo-
pie of that country and those of the United
states 1t is nothing less than that of
connecting the two lands by means of
submarine cable. The demands Of trade,
commerce, and social intercourse, are fast

-Mongrel papers admit that by keep
ing the South out of the Union, the Fed
eral alGOvernment is deprived of 5000. .OOO.-
600 OF revenue, which amount is now paid
by the Nurth. But this is not all. 1t

niggers and build up a republican party

.lanln +. Wade, of Ohio, denounced every
| Democrat and Conservative in the nation

true men. A fair and honest poll of the

true 1t is an infamous and wilful false
hood. The tongue that uttered it should
be bored vi b red hot iron

hours and a half, making the entire

songs on the way. He seemed very little
fatigued. This is the most extraordinary
swimming feat on record
