Loudon, 5. new company which pro-
poses to lay telegraph cable direct to New
York has been registered. One of the features
of its prospectus is that of promises to fix the
tolls on dispatches at twenty shillings per
ten words.
The Times to-day, in renewing the debate
in the House of Commons, says that it is
evident that the House is unanimous repudi-
ating the inadmissibility of American claims
for indirect loss. Mr.. Gladstone's language
is not likely to induce Americans to with
draw their demands.
The Times strongly depreciates verbal
discussion over the treaty.
The Daily Telegraph critcises the utter
ances of American journalists on the subject
and says the English government in the stand
it took has only obeyed the unanimous i'm
pulse of the country. But the speeches of
Gladstone are indiscreet and will probably
prove mischevious.
In the House Of Commons to-day Mr.
Gladstone moved vote of thanks TO Right
Honorable John Evelyn Dennison, the re-
firing speaker of the House, and also a re-
solve recommending his elevation to peer
age.

Mr.. Chas. G. Atkins, Commissioner of
Fisheries, has devoted the most of his time
the past season, in his official capacity, to ex-
periments in the breeding of salmon from par
ent fish. Craig's pond brook in Orland has
been the principal scene of operations. AL
though most of the salmon transported and
put into the pond died, enough remained alive
to carry forward the experiments, which
were quite successful and of the most inter-
esting character. The first attempt at taking
the spawn from these fish was on the I'd of
November, and this was repeated on each day
until the 10th. The eggs were then put in
simple apparatus prepared for Matching. On
account of the cold weather their develop
ment was much retarded. On the 18th Of
December they were removed and packed in
boxes for transportation. The eggs were d.
yided as follows To Maine, q, $50; to Massa-
chusetts, 2l,75O; to Connecticut. n, $50; to
VIM. Cleft, $3.50. Total, 10,j00. Arrange
ments have been made to put the eggs belong
ing to this State into tributary of the An
droscoggin, the number of eggs obtained not
being sufficient to warrant their division into
two lots The experiment has decided in the
affirmative the following questions, viz LIST,
whether salmon can be kept in confine-
ment in a small enclosure from June to No
vember; End, whether they WILL under such
conditions, develop their spawn and milt to
perfect maturity. 1t has also determined the
conditions of safety in transportation, and to
sufficient extent for practical purposes, the
conditions of safety in keeping them through
the summer, and finally the best mode Of
manipulation to secure complete formulation.
The experiments, besides the eggs obtained,
have added materially to the stock of knowl-
edge on the subject of salmon breeding.

We copy the following from the Augusta
correspondents account of Mr.. Webb's eff
fort in the House on wednesday, in the de-
bate on the railroad bill. The compliments
it contains are we'll deserved:
"Mr. Webb of Waterville, said that the
railroad scheme was virtually taking $3.50,
600 from the earnings of a road that had
never paid penny of dividends to its stock
holders and giving it to a foreign company
and to manufacturing companies that made
% per cent. dividends annually. He dweit
with something like pathos upon the struggles
of the Maine Central in the years past. Its
stockholders had suffered, and the Company
had sacrificed itself for Lewiston and Auburn,
ingrates that they are. Mr.. Webb det large
ly in statistics and considering his case, it is
conceded to be the ablest speech delivered in
the present Legislature"
