The Bottom of the Deep Blue Sea.
FFom the PaN MqN Gazett


At a meeting of the Society of Telegraph En-.
gineers and Electricians last evening Mr. Ed
ward Stallibras read paper on deep sea sound
ing in connection with submarine telegraphy.
Mr.. Stallbras said the work of surveying with
a view to aScertaining the CONFORMATION of the
ocean bed previous to laying a submarine cable
was of vital importance Between Cadiz and
Tenerffe alone, a distance of about 200 miles,
613 soundings were taken on one expedition, re-
sulting in the discovery of two banks, two coral
patches, and four other shoal spots Some of
the inclnes near these banks We're remarkable
for their steepness On the east side of one of
these the bottom fell preciptously for 40 feet
and on a sounding taken by the Dacia during
her survey of the Seine bank a precipice of
1900 feet was found A map of the mouth of
the Congo showed a most remarkable subma-
rine gully, the contour lines of which were
drawn from 202 soundings, many of these hav-
ing been taken at intervals of less than one
mile In the mouth of this remarkable river a
depth of no less than ,452 feet was found, the
Thames in a similar locality giving only about
forty feet. The gully was distinctly traced 100
miles out at sea 1t seemed almost Incredible
that probably one half of the cables now living
at the bottom of the ocean amounting TO a
value represented by several millions sterling,
had been placed on their ocean bed while those
carrying out the work were almost totally ignor-
ant of the bottom on which the cables were des-
tined to lie

Brazilian Emancipation.
From the Neto York Times.

From the NeIO York Times
The combined movement of many of the
planters of the province of San Paulo to set free
all their slaves by the end of the year 1890 is an
important step in Brazilian emancipation.
Probably an aid to this project has been the
degree of success which has attended the few
efforts made to obtain free labor. A good sign
also is the fact that in one period of six months
nearly 5000 immigrants from Europe arrived
there. well known family of San Paulo, pos
sessing 800 slaves, has determined TO set them
free at Christmas of next year and the infiu
ence of a few prominent planters who favor
emancipation is felt among all the rest. 1t was
in this province, by the way, that the success
full escape Of large number of slaves recently
occurred One drawback to emancipation is
said TO he the fact that on many plantations the
slaves were mortgaged to secure loans from
banks. The great coffee provinces are Rio
JaneirO. Bahia, San Paulo and Minas Gerahs,
and there the agricultural problem connected
with the abolition of slave labor is serious But
with the provisions of the law continuing the
labor of freedmen for wages for time, and
with the Importation of labor it is hoped that
the cultivation of the crops will go on without
trouble after emancipation.
