and had reyerses enough to discourage any or
dinary mortal. but he disputes every foot OF
ground available for defence and rises from
every fall, no matter how hard. Strapgest OF
all he seems to infuse his courage aud energy
into all his people, and they follow and cling to
him wherever he goes. He keeps watchful

sorbing interest, the gallant author treats 1t
with free pen and with unalsguised feeling.
The story OF the cruises and services OF the
Admiral, from the period Of his withdrawal
from the Federal navy to the close OF the war,
embracing the operations Of his two ships, the
Sumter and the Alabama, their blockade rum

blood and ruin, have strven with eager gaze TO
follow the vengoful course Of the Confederate
cruisers upon the main, will gladly Welcome in
this book the first authentic record (on the
Southern side Of phase Of the war about
which so much has been said and so little
really known. The chief blemish of the work
is the uniform bitterness Of tone which marks
every reference Of the author towards bis late
antagonists. Indeed, although the people
whom he cbampioned 80 effectively on the high
seas will be indulgent critics OF the brave
Admiraps book, it must be said that had he
confined himself more strictly to the facts he
narrates and 1ndulyed little less literally in

historical value. to say nothing Of the good
taste Of the memoirs which he has given us.

New Telegraph Lines.

We learn from the Montgomery Nail Of
the 18th inst, that powerful company is
organized and will commence operations at
an early day toward building new telegraph
lines between Washington and New Orleans,
to connect with lines now under construc.
ton in the North and West.
The company, we understand, is compos-
ed Of men of ample means and experience
as engineers and telegraphists in the North,
and soma Of the most active and prominent
men in the South.
It is understood that the new lines will
be built and work I'd as part Of the cheap
postal system now attracting SO much pub
lilo attention, and that the new company
will make use Of all the latest inventions
in tslegrsphy, such IS the compound steel
and copper wire, 90 superior to all other
in power, and Of such strength as to
require but twelve or fourteen poles to the
mile, in place Of thirty to forty, now used
with the ordinary wire. =. 80
The Books Iasulasor, which eoonomixes
the strength Of tho current from ten to
forty per cent, will also be used, together
with the new ssdoubiec transmitter," by
which mssssgss can be sent both ways on
the same wire at the same time, thus doub.
ling tho capacity Of the limo.
We see no reason, with the improyeme ents
rsfsyrsd to, why the new company should
sss be sble TO farnisA telegraph facilities st
cheap rates, and We earnestly hope their
efforta towards this end viii bs successful.
