- ee — THE NEW ATLANTIC CABLE.

——

The new submarine telegraph between Brest and the United Siates is to be laid direct to New York city. As the English cable is laid between Treland and Newfoundland, and as the land communication between the latter place and New York is difficult, it is thought that the direct route will be less liable to delay or accident. At present the electric fluid has to traverse four seus and make fuur separate land journeys befure a message can be sent from) the Continent to New York. It is expected, that messages may be sent from Paris by the new cable and answered from New York in| balfan hour, The capital estimated for the undertaking is £1,000,000. The working ex- peuses with two stations only, ought to be The advantages of the new route to! continental commerce are obvious; and it is even thonght that a cable from Falmouth to Brest would enable it to be profitably used by London jwerchants.

Havirax, August 6th, 1568. My Dean Mr. Grayxt,—

I stxp you this week a ‘few notes of travel’ und some scraps of information about matters I left Charlotte- town on the morning of the 4th, in the Princess of Wales, for Pictou. ‘The day was fine, the water smooth, and the passengers good humor-

and things in Nova Scotia,

A A TR, J approach my last topic, the polities of Novg Scotia, with fear and trembliag, The country

is very much excited. Men everywhere, ang of all classes and parties, use very strong lane guage. The Antis are firm and even defiant in their tone. They are divided into two par.

ties—those who wish to exchange Confeders,

tion for Annexation, and those whose demand is simply for Repeal, My private opinion is thay the annexation party is much the larger one, In one particular they are both agreed, They both scout the idea of conciliation. They ang determined, at all risks, to sever their conneg. tion with Canada. It is said that Mr. Howe himself expresses his astonishment at the strength and intensity of the anti-union feeling, He had no idea that such a bitter hatred of Canada and of Canadian connexion existed among his countrymen. It is reported thag he would, if he had his own way, listen to the voice of the Canadian charmers, but that he dare not. He, like every other agitator, finds

edand agreeable, so that we had a very pleasant passage across the Strait. The Princess her- self, her Commander and her crew deserve every word that has been said in their praise. A better boat, a more gentlemanly, accom- modating Commander and a more etlicient crew are not to be found in the British American waters. If the accommodation for travellers on the Island was at all in keeping with that

They seem determined, whatever else may be wanting, to have plenty of ornament. The amount of ginger-bread work about the most humble of the houses, lately erected, or in the course of erection, would du a joiner’s heart good to contemplate. There were not many vessels in the harbour, and trade seems to be ina rather languishing condition in this section of Nova Scotia.

We entered the cars ata few minutes past two. That in which I travelled is a new one, very handsomely and even luxuriously fitted up. It is of American make. The Yankees if they like to travel fast like alse to travel comfort-
