In this brief sketch we see quite clearly whe was the original projector of the tele- graph cable. Lest some way still doubt my statements, [ will quote from the correspon- dence between Mr. Brett, submarine tele- graph manafactarer in London, and Mr. GisLorne, during the years 1852 and 1853 — all prior to the year in which Mr. Field claims that his scheme was “ first written.’’

Under date of London, July 12, 1852, Mr. Brett writes; ‘* Major Carmichael Smythe, a friend of your Mr. Howe, (one of the Nova Scotia commiussioners,) has just called and gave we your plan.’” Mr, Brett proposes in the same ietter to * unite in the enterprise.”’ fe writes again under date of London, May 26, 1853; * * “+ We have taken the first step to secure a royal charter from the Eng- lish Government. * * My impression is to do it well, and have an odd dollar or two to meet the chances of accident. We must have a capital of £750,000. Can you find £375,000 and good names in America, if | find £375,000 and good names here? If so the thing is easy, andin two or three years ibimay be completed’? Again under date oi London, July 8, 1853, Mr. Brett writes to Gisborne: ‘*On my return to Paris this morning I found your satisfactory letter of June 24, delivered Here the 4th current. Let me recommend to you, without delay, to ap- ply to the colonial authorities and at once secure in our jomnt names an exclusive Tight ior estublishing submarme telegraphs between Newfoundland and Ireland. You should by ail means endeavor to get fifty years and an annual sum, on condition of supplying the colonial government with all government communications free, as from England.”’ hese extracts corroborate my statements, and prove conclusively Gisborne’s exertions two years previous to the period when Mr. Field says his scheme was * first written.”

ln the ‘*eard ” published by Mr. Field, from which L bave quoted, David Dudley Field’s name is inserted among the six origi- aal corporators in place of that of Frederick Newton Gisborne. The original charter bears for the sixth name not D. D. Field but F Newton Gisborne; and that document will ever remain in proof of it. Noman can ever

As | have already stated, there are hundreds of Fenians hang- ing around Canadian cities at the present

moment. Ona given day or night they will make a rising, Certain towns will be fred,

and whenever there is an opportunity of doing sy with success arms and military stores will | be seized. At the same time, feints will be jinade xt Fort Erie or Windsor, and at soma place on the upper St. Lawrence. As soon

| a8 troops are sent off ty these points the rail- New- | roads and telegraph will be eut.

It is caleu- luted that by this means the country will be thrown intoa frightlul commotion, the troops

'will be seattered, all means of communication | libited any other company or person frow) W. Field and Frederick Newton Gisborne, | will be cut) off, and the people be-ima com-

paratively defenceless condition. Then, and not till then, will the grand attack be made. ‘Two armies will advance into the country— one im Lower and one in Upper Canada, The Lower Canada wing will advance with all possible speed upon Montreal, from whieh it is calculated all troops will have teen sent to meet the raiders on the upper St..Law- rence. The city captured, all public property will be seized, all vessels in the harbour taken possession of, and the Lristh flag raised. The Upper Canada army will come in either at

Goderich, Surnia, Windsor, or at some point

on the Niagara river, it will depend entirely upon the feint. If it bas been made at Windsor, the army will enter at some distant point. It will strike at once for Toronto, which, as in the case of Montreal, it ishoped, will be leit undefended, the troops having been sent away to meet the feint, and bein unable to get back on aceount of the railroa connection being cat off. With Torosto and Montreal as basis of operation, troops will be sent out, and proclamations will be ids announcing the capture of the Province at declaring it the territory of the Lrish Repab- lie, The rights of privace property will be respected, and all persuns teund plundering will be severely punished. All provisions and horses seized will be paid fur when Fe- nian authority is completely established. aving thus yained a foothold inthe country they expect swarms of Americans to join them, with whose assistance the troops will be fought in detail and overcome.
