THE Great Eastern has just finished
the task of laying new ocean telegraphic
cable between Europe and America prac-
tically the fourth, or counting the first one
laid in 1858, the fifth chain of direct cleo
trieal communication between the old and
the new world. The work has excited less
comment than even an ordinary hanging
just now, standing III marked contrast with
the popular excitement and journalistic
enterprise which characterized the early
history of ocean telegraphy. 1t remains
to be seen whether the additional facilities
gained by the " cable monopoly" will add
anything of advantage to the public.

THErecent proceedings of the select COM
mittee of the British Parliament on the
supply and the price of coal are very in.
teresting. One Of the latest witnesses was
Mr.. J. Lothian Bell, president Of the Brit
ish Iron and Steel Institute, and director
of the Northeastern railway. He gave
some statistics of production, price and
distribution, and gave, unsolicited, his
view of the future iron business by say
ing: "My own opinion is that America
will hereafter become the great country
for the production Of iron. She has an
enormous iron field, ard her Goals are very
plentiful" The idea is not q new one, or
an unreasonable one. There stand in the
way only two practical difficulties. We
cannot be sure that either American CAPT.
talists or laborers will take far-sighted
view Of the case. In Great Britain
the iron and coal trades are
laboring heavily under the high
prices caused by the strikes of the employed
and the excessive cupidty Of the IRON
masters. Strikes are not unknown in this
country, and unfortunately the employers
are not always wise, individually or col
lectively. The recent votes of our manu-
faeturers to curtail production, and advising
the reissue of the "reserve' of legal
tenders, were as unwise as they could
well be. The first was suicidal, the second
murderous. If American iron is to be-
come real staple Of production, the sup
ply must be regular, and the price reason
able. If any sort of trade is to be worth
transacting, we must get back to a COM
nonsense system of currency. The result
of curtailing production may be seen in the
stories of the Massachusetts, Crispins, and
of the Pennsylvania petroleum producers.
Those who attempt it always lose money.
When a convention of manufacturers can
adopt such resolutions as were lately passed
by the iron men, there is no chance what
ever that they will crowd anybody out of
market.

The outlet of the Mississippi has al

THE outlet Of the Mississippi has al.
ways been source of annoyance and ex-
pense to all engaged in the commerce of
New Orleans. The bar of Pass POutre
IS the one great obstacle which either can
not be removed, or will not stay re-
moved, the mud and the shifting
sands from above soon filling in and neu-
tralizng the effect of such improvement as
may be made by costly dredging. The
plan for overcoming the difficulty which
now meets with most favor is the construc-
ton of the Fort st. Philip canal, by which
new outlet to the Gulf may be obtained.
The New Orleans Times urges this project
upon the attention of the public in the
interests of the whole valley of the Mis-
sissippi, as well as of every ship-owner
whose vessel plies the Mississippi. The
necessity of better outlet from the Missis-
sippi, it regards as national one. and con-
siders il discreditable to great country
and an all-powerful government to have five
millions of dollars worth of property in
ships and products enlarged for weeks,
as was the case less than month ago, by
a senseless bar, which ought to be removed
or thanked. There are now trading between
New Orleans and Europe more than thirty
steamships Of large capacity, representing
an aggregate annual entrance and clearance
of 100000 tons, but the free development
of the business and commerce of the port
cannotproperly be carried on as long as yes
sells are liable, if only at long intervals, to
be detained on the bar for weeks. The
Times concludes as follows
When the bar difficulty is effectually removed
| by the proposed Fort St. Phillip Canal, New Or.
| leans will enter on new career of commercial
prosperity, and will become not only tile great
importing city OF the country, but q great i'm.
porting mart for the valley OF the Mississippi as
we'll as point of entrance for the great wave of
European emigration which is commencing to
sweep over Texas and the western territories.
ana an exit for the large and increasing numb en-
OF travellers who annually seek the shores of Erl-
rope on missions of pleasure or business. = y
steamships and the Fort st. Phillip Canal are
essential TO our commercial redemption, NAV
they both fiou. .siI
For cotton, sugar, rice and some other
commanding staples of the south, this
estimate of the grand future of New
Orleans is no doubt well and CONSIDERABLY
taken. But for all those numerous pro.
auctions of the great Mississippi basin,
which cannot be transported by New
Orleans and the Gulf, for at least nine
months ofthe year, on account of excessive
heat, another outlet must be secured which
will look to another and possibly create,
city in time than that which now com.
mands SO large trade with Europe. The
arctic whale is not the only thing thai
cannot go through tropical sea.

GRAND CoNcERT.-Our readers will bear in
Hall on Monday the 29th inst, on which occa-
sion Madame Ermina Rudersdorff will make
her first appearance before Portland audi
ence supported by strong company.
The following from the Boston Iraueuer of
the 31st Of October, conveys some idea of the
Judgment passed upon her while in that city,
Nine. Ermina Rudersdorff made her first ap-
pearance in opera in this country, and while
speaking of her consummate artistic ability we
bear in mind, as a token of additional praise
that when many who now tread the stage in
glory were bnt children, she was renowned as
one of the worlds greatest prime donue, and
the most eminent composers delighted to place
their scores first in her hand. Her performance
of LeOnOra last evening was wonderful. We
will not speak of lack of freshness which might
be noticed in her voice, since we honestly be-
lIeve that everything was forgotten in compari-
son with the magnetic power of her singing
and the positive grandeur of her acting. Her
recitatives we.e given as they seldom are, and
the force of the words for once was felt in their
delivery, while every aria was faithfully rem
dered, and always with unexpected feeling and
appreciation. The first aria, Tdced la notte pLd-
cida, awakened Immediately a recognition of
her ability, and formed the grand impression,
the completeness of the giving OF the character,
left upon all who heard it. In the the trio
which concludes the first act, both in action and
in singing, she rivalled, even excelled all whom
We have heard in the role. Equally is this true
of the finale to the second act in which all the
artists uuited in most intense presentation of
Z the scene. The recitation which introduces the
aria D'dnlOr sui ali TOsee deserves again the
highest praise, and in the tower scene Mme
Rudersdorf sustained her part magnifcently.
In short she showed herself an artlste ia every
way, and her rendering of the character will
long be remembered and in many ways made
the object from which to measure the perfor
nance of others. Her very look, step aud ges-
ture bore meaning, and had no. sng,e note
been sung correctly the impersoHation would
have demanded recognition substantial and
sincere.
