THE NEW ATLANTIC CABLE


By the despatch dated from Brest yesterday,
the Great Eastern was yesterday morning off
Newfoundland, and only thirty miles distant
from the place where the splice was to be
made. At this writing there can scarcely
be any doubt that the new ocean cable has
been connected with the American shore and
that we have now three magnetic currents
engaged in transmitting intelligence between
the Old World and the New. The completion
of such an enterprise as this is really grand
event, that ought to occasion profound feel
ing of rejoicing in the hearts of all who can
appreciate the importance of rapid spread
of intelligence, and the influence of such
means as this for promoting enlightenment and
proclaiming liberty throughout the world. 1t
need be no figure of rhetoric to say that these
wires sunk in the bed of the ocean, and bind
ing the Old World with the New, will vivify
Europe in its decay with some of the fresh
life of America, and will serve to enlindle the
fire of liberty on her affairs. The more rapid
the means of spreading intelligence through
out the world, the better will the people
know what the requirements of the age are,
and be able to shake off the old despotic sys-
TENS that have descended to them from the
dark ages, and take the power in their own
hands.
The American terminus of the new cable is
at the island of st. Pierre, one of a little
group of rocks to the south of Newfound-
land, which now almost alone remain to re
present the once enormous possessions of the
French in America. These islands have an
area of about one hundred and six square
miles, population of about two thousand
and they are only valuable on account of the
adjacent fisheries. The United States termi-
nus will be at Rouse's Hummock, conical-
shaped hill of thirty or forty acres in area,
situated about two miles from the town of
Duxbury, Massachusetts,. In consequence of
the decision of Attorney General Hoar, that
it was not lawful for the French cable to be
landed in the United States without the au-
thority of Congress, the Legislature of Massa-
chusetts has granted a charter to the Ocean
Telegraph Company, who will carry out line
beyond the jurisdiction of the United States,
and meet the French cable. From Duxbury
an independent line will extend to Boston,
and from thence will communicate with all
parts of the United States.

AUSTRIA AND THE ECUNENICAL
COUNTTL

The contest between Prussia and Austria
which grew out of the Schleswig- -Holstein
affair, although there was nothing praise
worthy in its origin, has produced more i'm
portant results than any European war of our
day. Short, sharp, and decisive, it Inundated
Austria and consolidated the petty States of
North Germany into a great empire, which
disputes with France for the position of the
great leading continental power The war
demonstrated to Austria her weakness, and it
led to reforms that could probably have been
brought about by no other means. Hungary
was pacifed by wise concessions, which ap-
pealed to the national pride of the
people: the concordat which placed the
civil as we'll as the religious government
under the feet of the Vatican Cabinet was alb
rogated, civil marriages were made lawful,
and free schools were established indepen-
dent of Church control. These reforms were
due in a very great measure to the firm but
wise policy of the Protestant Minister, Baron
Won Beust but such a strict and bigoted
Catholic as the Emperor is entitled to credit
for having the courage to take such a man
into his councils, and for sacrificing his per-
sonal feelings for the sake of benefiting the
country. 1t may be said that it was only his
duty to do this, but when it is considered how
few monarchs have been able to distinguish
between their duty and their preiudices, espe-
cially when religious considerations are in
volved, Francis Joseph is entitled to no
little praise, especially as he has shown a dis
position to continue the good work so auspi-
ciously begun.
1t is anticipated, with good reason, that the
Gcumenical Council which has been sum-
moned by the Pope will be specially marked
in its action towards the Catholic powers, like
! Austria, that have discarded the yoke of
Rome; and a conference of the Catholic
powers has been proposed, to take action in
advance with regard to the anticipated deci-
slons OF the council Baron Won Beust has
replied to this proposition, refusing on the
part OF Austria to participate in the conference,
on the plea that it will be time enough to
take action when the council declares against
the rights of States. 1t is certain that this is
the polite course to pursue; and if the Catho-
hc governments of Europe will only be firm
in resisting any interference in their affairs
by the council or the Vatican Cabinet, they
can very easily make it a necessity for the

THE BASEBALL SEASON.

The season for baseball matches is again at
hand, and the reading public is regaled with
elaborate reports of the heroes who hit, make
runs, throw, catch, muff, etc. The extra
ordinary popularity which this game has at
tanned appears to be one of the legitimate
consequences of the movement for muscular
development which has exerted such marked
influence in every ramifcation of society, and
which has given wonderful impetus to all the
favorite forms of exercise. 1t is better that
young men should learn to row boats, play
ball, dance, and skate than that they should
fall early victims to sedentary habits; but one
extreme may prove as dangerous as the other,
and the baseball furore is carried in some
directions to undue limits. The gambling
tricks and associations connected with some
of the exciting matches are especially repre-
hensible, and the public cannot too strongly
condemn the tendency displayed in various
quarters to intermingle with these contests
practices as disgraceful and dishonorable as
the jocky intrigues which have made the turf

NO ROOM FOR GONE NOBEp

1T has passed into a proverb that "there is
Always room for one more" in an American
omnibus or city passenger railway car. No
other civilized people on the face of the earth
would peacefully submit, for day, to the in
convenience and suffering which flow from
the practical application of this doctrine. In
several European countries the number of
passengers is strictly restricted to the number
of seats, and railway companies cannot vio-
late this rule without subjecting themselves
to an action for damages. In Philadelphia
the custom prevails of crowding into car as
many persons as it can possibly hold, and
some of the conductors have become so ex.
pert in the art of packing human beings
closely together that they could have fur,
njshed instructive hints to the old slave-shir

The new Secretary of the Navy, Mr.. Robe
son, bespeaks for General Grants admins
tration a judgment founded on its fruits
rather than it's professions, and he states that
it "endeavors quietly, persistently, and hon
estly to perform each day the duties which it
each day finds before it, and hopes ''to pre-
sent the country restored in all it's parts, with
credit re-established, and industry reinvigo-
rated through all the channels of national
prosperity" The people are well disposed to
give it a fair trial: they would much rather
see it a success than failure, and they will
not be slow to render praise where praise is
due. Knowing that it was impossible to avoid
personal disappointments, they will evince
little sympathy for those who suffer the pangs
of baffled ambition, but they have the right
to expect that care will be exercised in ex-
cluding from important representative posi-
tons aspirants who are positively objection
able, on grounds patent to the nation, and
we hope that no more high honors will be
conferred on such men as the newly appointed
Minister to Spain, General Daniel E. Sicllles.

NEw YoRK, April l3.-The Herald
says that Senator Ross, of Kansas, called
upon President Grant to consult about
the nominations for his State, and on
finding that the President did not intend
to make the appointments he wanted,
became so wrathy and insulting that the
President had to order him from the
room.
The Heralds Washington dispatch
says that at recent Cabinet meeting the
Cuban question was discussed. Secre-
tsry Fish opposed any hasty steps to-
ward the recognition of Cuban indie
pendence, holding that Spain will tire in
resisting the natural course of events on
the island; but in case of interference,
would not only exhaust all resources in
resisting, but would call in France and
England, with whom we would become
involved. Grant has great confidence in
Fish. Secretaries Borie and Creswell
