A GREAT BLUNDER IN REPAIRING THE
ATLANTIC CABLEs.-The steamer Robert
Lowe is engaged in repairing the Frcnch
cable between the island OF st. Pierre ana
DuXhurv. The fact has been developed
that the loss Ct both the English cables l>t
wear, and the consequent expense ana III
convenience. resulted from Il stuPcndous
blunder. When The cable of 1866 gave out,
the fact was located by The usual tests in
mid. ocean, whittier repair stcamcr was
dispatched to take up and rcunite the two
ends. In graphing for these the cable III
1865 was picked up and accidentally sew
cred, and efforts t. find the break in that OF
1865 were lruiLlcss. This lefG the public
entirely dependent upon the French cable
until late last spring, when it was dscor-
cred that the fault in the cable of 1866,
instead of being in mid.ocean. was in close
proximity to the Newfoundland coast,
where it might have been repaired in Il few
hours except for an original mistake which
resulted in the rupture or one cable by The
Efforts to find the break in the other where
it did not exist. The facts have impOI tant
hearing in promoting the laying OF new and
competing cables, confirming rs they do the
theory that ocean cables once properly laid
i'll deep water are little liable to be severed.
