NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 27.-Convicts at Tracy City are In a state of mutiny, and as result two men are dead and two others are suffering from slight wounds, This evening the convicts loaded pipe with explosives, placed it in coal car and attached slow fuse to it.

 PECULIAR COINCIDENCE.

COMPLETED AT HEARTS CONTENT, N. F.
 PECULIAR CoINCIDENCE.
 HEARTS CONTENT, N. F., July 27.-The final splice of the Anglo-American Tele- graph company's new cable was made at Il a. m., Greenwich time, and the laying of the largest cable across the Atlantic was then successfully completed.
 The time taken in laying the new cable was the shortest on record. The expedi- tion left Hearts Content, N. F., July 15, in the afternoon, and the final splice was made on the morning of the 27th, or less than twelve days. The total time taken was inside of two weeks.
 very remarkable coincident in con- nection with it's completion is the fact that it's final splicing was on the anniversary, or on the day on which the first successful cable reached Hearts Content, in 1866, twenty eight years ago; and not only the same date, but on the same day of the week. The new cable is laid between Hearts Content, Newfoundland, and Vaiancia, Ireland. This cable has larger conductor than any cable ever laid.
