For week past there has been a
good deal of half-suppressed indigna-
tion IN this city on the account Of the
marriage Of negro to white woman.
Noune cares for the parties to the con-
tract as both are beneath contempt,
but the people keenly feel the reproach
of having such u trayesty enacted ia
the community. Rev. Hoffman pre-
formed the ceremony and toward him
the feeling of the people is that OF
mingled regret and reproach; regret
that he could so lower his high office,
and reproach that he would perform
marriage so rcpugnant to public sen
timent.-Raton Range.

Veying intelligence al our disposal Ne
divides the proposed cable system into
three sections. one ~ which would d.
composed 81 cables In the Pacific ocean,
one Of cables IN the Indian ocean. and
one Of cables In the Atlantic ocean.
The cables In the Pacific ocean would
start from Victoria ana hnd nrst
mid-ocean station at Tanning Island
a second at FIJI. and third at Norfolk
Island Il would bifuroate. one branch
extending to New Zealand and one TO
the eastern coast OF Australia. Tele-
graphic communication across the
continent would put 1t In touch with
King Georges Sound
The cables In the Indian ocean would
start from King Georges Sound and
find mid-ocean stations at Cocos Island
and Maurititus, extending thence TO
Natal or Capetown. From Cocos ISL
and connection would be made with
Ceylon. Singapore and Honkong. From
Mauritus connection would be made
to Seychelles, Alden and Bombay.
The cables in the Atlantic should ex-
tend from Capetown to Bermuda, find
ing mid-ocean stations at St. Helena,
Ascension and Barbados. From Ber-
muda connection would be made with
Halifax and the existing Canadian and
transatlantic lines.
The total distance for which, under
such scheme, new cables would be
required, Is estimated by Sir Sanford
at $4,000 knots and the approximate
cost of construction at from $4,000, 0o0
to 100000 900.
One advantage of completing the
circuit of the Empire by round-the-
world system of British cables, upon
which Sir Sanford Fleming lays spe-
cial stress, is that each point touched
would be in connection with every
other point by two routes, extending
in opposite directions" thus practical
ly constituting a double connection in
each case.
The construction OF a state-owned
Pacific cable is, in Sir Sanford Flem-
ing's opinion, the first step to be taken
and he once more restates his convic-
ton that on state undertaking such
cable would be "self-supporing from
the first year OF its establishment, and
would admit OF charges being lowered
year by year"
