OX- ten ling over seine tho sands of square miles, in which the rope once ctiibetlded, whether fractured or not, uo- power _thtit could be placed on board in ship, could ever again raise it. Ill] such facts before us,it appears necessary, if telegraphic commiiniciition :s to be Iccomplislied between the two coniitries, to look about us, _nnd ueeifthere does not exist a route in which we in_:iy findn little more terrafirma, and unaccompanied by such startling dilhcullies. Aplau has been suggested, and the route partially surveyed. by two engineers, Messrs. lliirrison llrotlicrs, which appears to solve th olsleui; and, in fact, nature has plac at oitr coniiiirindland stations by which. we liavc no doubt. the highly desirable achieve- meats may be successfully accomplished.

'l‘lie next nud last sulunarine line would be ucriuto lludsuii‘s Straits into Upper C--imtln. the wives then traversing the land to Quebec. from whence it would command the whole extent of the great continent of America. By this urlungeiuent the whole efllie submarine line would. probably not exceed 2500 miles; I) being in (li‘lftCll(‘tl proportions, i longest of which, froui the Puree Islands to Iceland. would not rnueltoxcecd 500 miles, the chances of practical success nre greatl multiplied. In the wholr. of the route, too, the bed oftlia Nort I Sou is singularly favorable to the project. Afllnptlis varying from 160 to 200 fathnius it consists ofstony. sandy, and shingly bottoms, undulating the hills and vallt-ys, where, out of any very extensive _ navigation, mid in situations not generally uscd for aiiizliorage, the wins would lie secure, performing their rapid, silent. and iuystn- rlous vocation in safety. ' ‘he length of the line overland would tnueltexceed that by sea before reacliing Quebec; but, as no dilli- ' cllties are involved in its construciioii, whether carried on posts or laid bcneatlstlie surface of the ground, the only coiisideratiun is tho quantity of wire required. and, consequently, the expense to cotnplde-the connexion.
