The Atlantic Cable—English Perseverance and Irish-American Boasting. {From the London ‘Times, Oct. 5. We are nota demonstrative race. We take our suc- ceases and our failures with equal gravity. Our cousins ‘aeroas the Atlantic have picked up more of the quick, e: pressive southern clement, and thoy beat us in tho di play of public feeling. In the first sp persnt success the Atianuic cable ‘hoy went mad with delight applause. Though we had contributed equal sci most of the capital, they forgot us altogether, does the wire give uncertain signs than they discover we have had the management of it, and that alf will be right a8 soon as the American instruments can be conveyed to. Trinity Bay. If any faith, however, is to be put in tho startling despatch received’ at Halifax from New York ,our instruments are more cficacious than theirs. At this end of the cable we bave neither given way to extravagant Joy, nor fallen out of temper with our partnors in the scheme, because for the present things wer'n't as we expected. Yet there is a profound sense of disappointment, or at least of that deferred hope which makes the heart sick, at this sad hitch. For the present, and as regards th ular cable, we feel as people do about a tree languis' from some inscrutable disease, or a child that pine sway, ¢ cannot tell why. What is tho matter with it? Where is the pain? What part is hurt? Anawer there isnone. In asmal! room on the Irish coast a bit of copper wire is fixed on the table or the wall, and knowing men are coax- ing it to tell them what has happened a thousand miles off in the mid abyss of the ocean. Its vitality expires, its & grows weaker; it responds more and more fecbly to the tortures of science, and the very means used to rouse it from its stupor draw on its constitution. In theirurgency the operators cut off their own hopes, and it is now suspected that they have done themselves no small part of the mischief that they deplore. What is this but the old story of the genius, maliciously true, keeping the very letter of his bond, doing superhurman service, but gone forever if a word or a movement be omitted? There is too much reason to fear that the affair is reduced toa post mortem ex: Tnless the above rumor be true, the Atlatic cable fuere is a length of wire, but how long no man can say, It ia, indeed, almost the grcatest wonder of the age, and, fairly considered, beats even the Atlanti t ph i itseli, should that ever be an existent fact, ion of scienco can stand at one end of a fin® copper wire and ask it bow long itis, “Answer, wire, are you 10 miles long, or 270, or 560, or 1,000, or ‘oven’ 2,000? What is the ature of your fracture or injury!” Witcheratt ttsolt cannot beat stich divination, It is even some comfort to retleet that, though for the present science dove as no good, yet it gains by our failures, and, thoagh we do not yoo Obtain what we want, we know more. ‘There is (he best reason to hope that we have to deal with purely mechanical diflicuiues of au ordinary and very manageable character. Mr. Varley arrived at the conclusion that there are at least two serious faults in the cable, one of them dating from before the submergence, and between 500 and 600 miles from Valentia; the other about 270 miles distant, and at the place where, owing to the sudden change in the depth of the sea, danger had always been apprehended: that one or both of these fault have been aggravated, if not made fatal, by the in- tense currents used to overcome the difficulty, and that electrical tests indicated what was otherwise too Evens, that at least the Agamemnon’s portion of the cable was in a very damaged sate before it was submerged. The nar- ratives of the three successive attempts to lay the cable suggested great misgivings as to the soundness of its con- dition. In twelve hundred miles of so delicate and elaborate o structure, joined in some hundreds of places, twice shipped, twice payed out, once so hopelessly entan- giled that more than a hundred miles had to be extricated from a mass of confusion, exposed to many days of tem- pestuous weather, and of such a weight as to strain and even injure the sides, beams and decks of one of our finest and strongest men-of war, it would indeed be a miracle if in the whole there should not be asingle fault. We were told of the people in charge of it looking for faults, for lesions, and for bubbles in the gutta percha, finding them visible to the eyes, cutting them out, and’ piecing the cable—in one instance just in time to send the hasty reparation to its final resting place at the bottom of the sea. We are also told of the immense pressure of the thou- sand tons upon the lower part of the great coil, assisted by the working of the ship, and the extreme heat of the hold making the gutta percha ooze out betweeu the iron wires of the outer coat, and threatening to bring the cop- per and iron wires into fatal contact. It was even said that the strain on the cable, as it was payed out, had the same cffect on the gutta percha, and visibly flattened the cable. Exposed as it was to all these vicissitudes, a single fault in the gutta percha, were It only a hair's breadth, or, like Mercutio’s wound, ‘a scratch, a scratch,’ would be fatal, if not immediately, yet, as Mr. Varley shows, as soon a8 the electrical currents had passed long enough to cut away the portion exposed to the salt water. It is only, amazing that the cable, so knocked about, should have been actually laid down in something like a working state, and should bave worked so long as it did, This, then, is really only a question of strength Everything ‘seems to indicate that for such a purpose the bottom of the ocean is the best place im the world, the safest from interference, and the most unchanged. The only thing to be done is to find a cable that shall stand the trials to which {t is exposed in the act of laying it, and to devise the best machinery, perbaps also the best vessel, for the work. As the vease! and the machinery wil! be in constant re quisition, it will answer the parpose, if not of a private company, at least of the community at large, to spare no cost in bringing them to perfection. The machinery em ployed this year seems to bave been @ mauifest improve. ment on that of last year; but the ship was the same, and to the ship we probably owe at least some of the faulty laces suspected. It must be laid to the credit of the ship the cable became entangled, or could get out of place ‘at all, that portions of the cable were disposed in separate coils in ai t parts of the vessel, aud, indeed, on different decks, and that the chief coll pressed with so tremendous a weight on its lower portion. The whole cable could be coiled on the deck of the Great Eastern less than a foot deep, and of couree with no preestre to speak of. With a ship of half that length, having a deck made for the purpose, we could escape all the dangers arising from pressure, from rolling, from the change from one coil to another, and from coils of a email diameter, which have an inevitable tendency to untwist the cable aud derange the strands. [t is no slight reflection on the enterprise or the sagacity of our goverument that the British vessel has evidently not been so well for the work a the eee en that the labor of the latter has, to all bs goer by? ede pel juacy of the former, But the cable itself ig the chief consideration. No doubt this ts a matter of great difficuity, for the object is to com. bine solidity, tenacity, tougliness, a certain degree of elas- Helty, a moderate degree uf plancy, and conducting wires of a buflicieut thickness to carry ordinary eu js, all with. ina reasonable weight. Various improvements have been suggested, and it is not likely that thos carly in the art we have attained perfection. The cable has not been strong enough for the work, that is, as far as we can judge: one of the two faults arising apparently from the rough usege suffered by (he cable on board the Agamem non: the other from some submarine fret or strain, most probabiy from being suspended at too wide a span between two heights, and having, perhaps, to side at @ high ten- sion over a rocky point.’ It can scarcely be thought with in the bounds of possibility to underlay the cable to the place where the Atlantic passes from 400 fathoms to four tunes that depth; or, even it this were possible, to bring up from the ga depth the strained or wounded por- tion. Even |, however, the electr.ciams suspect an equally serious injury at twice the distance from Valentin. All ances indicate that the present cable must be up, and we should that the codly which has bern may be used in the construction of its euccesor, There can be no doubt of final success. The day will come wheu all the dMficulties of the undertaking will be matter of ordinary information, and surmounted by ordinary methods in universal daily use. The submarine geogra- will then be as familiar as the terrestial, and it will to a few fathoms where to lay a cable slack and where it may be eimpiy laid as straight as @ sbip can pay ‘tout. But cost and delay must be undergone before we come to this. We now know what wo did not two months hat the thing can be done, and this justifies every exertion that may contribute to the union of the New and Old World ‘With an instinct which seems to be borrowed from the sister ieland, the Americans are all this time disputing about the honor of the thing. Were we as pugnacious as they, we should now be as deep in controversy as THo- garth’s doctors at the bedside of their dying patient. We nf remember that Englishmen, atd Lrishmen too, have laid many submarme cables with great success, and work them weil to this day We are also aware that several Englishmen have been employed im this line, and that if # cannot make the wire speak, neither can they make dead rise. So far from heing ready to get minrrel with the Amerieans, the British public have with remarkable indifference on a little dispate that has sprung up between our own electricians, There are plenty of clever men among us, but they have not charged the managers of the enterprise with etupidity. It has not yet occurred to the most ran- corous of our democrats that ‘a worthless and selfish aristocracy,’ as the New York Hexato intimates, bas had any coneiderable share in the fracture of the telegraph. ‘The public here goes at once to the question of the failure iteelf. How has it come to pass? Where is it? How can it be avoided another time? These may not be the ques. tons to rouse the passions of a lace, to carry an elec. tion, or to augment the giory of onr country; but they go to the point, which is the cable itself We have only to pursue our respective courses, the Americans taking up the Personalities of the question, and the English confining themse! to its more practical branches, and by the time the former have proved themecives the cleverest inthe world we shall have produced a- working cable, The Lowber Claim.

The Fire Department. STRAM FIRY ENGINE FOR NEW YORK OrTy. Daring the past two months there has been a m0ve- ment On foot—or rather in consideration—for the e-tab lishment of an independent steam fire engine in this city. Last evening there was a private meeting held at No. 594 Broadway of promivent firemen to further this object. It is proposed to form an association of one hundred mon, fifty at least of whom shall be exempt firemen; the asvo- Clation to be regularly organized, wilh a president, vice president and secretary. They propose tw have a steam engine, & hand engiae and hose carriage, to be obtained as far as possible by their own members. If the city will buitd them one of the carriages, of suitable character, they well accopt, and obtain the others themselves. They propose to locate their carriages somewhere between loecker and Fourteenth streets,ncar Broadway, Having fifty excmpt fromen, they hopo to avoid that geveral bane of the ire Department—strife for office, ‘The band engine will be used for smali fives in the immodiate neighbor- hood, as from one-third to one-half the fires m Cie city are thiis extinguished by the jocal eny1ue before @ general alarm ig given. ‘The steam will be seli-propel- ling, with steam kept up hight, ready to be driven to the most dist. / part oi tue city at a moment's warning. The cost of k. pil, to steam constantly up will not be much it ny greater (han that of keeping up fires in the other cn, ine houses during the winter to keep: the engine valves from fevezing. The organization of this company is already inchoate; it will probably be consum- mated at a second meting, which is to be held some time thio work. ‘The members of the association will generally be men of means, abundantly able to sustain and carry on successfully the objects of their organization. A steam —e fire engine is needed in our city, and if an organization like the ono abovo described should obtain and properly conduct one, it might be a very important addition'to our Fire Department. Bellevue Hospital. INTRODUCTORY LECTURE ON CLINICAL INSTRUCTION. In consequence of the announcement that the usual in troductory lecture to the several courses of clinical in- struction at this well known hospital was to be delivered by Dr. John W. Francis, President of the Medical Board of the institutfon, considerable interest was excited in medi- cal circles, and a very large and highly intellectual num her of the disciples of the healing art, aud others, assem bled in the operating theatre, at 1 o'clock P. M. on Mon- day. The five room in which the lecture was delivered, better known as the ‘theatre,’’ was as full as it could well be; and shortly before the lecture began there were as many us fifty Vehicies belonging to the medical fraternity in the court yard nishod gentlemen of the faculty pre- may mention Dr, Mott, of Quarantine; Dr. Wil. noki; Dr. Davia L. Rodgers; Dr. Satterly, of the army; Dr. Armstrong, of Porto Rico, besides ‘several other army doctors, aud nearly every’ leading medical practitioner of New’ York. There were representatives from all the colleges in the city, and the several physi cians and surgeons from the other hospitals, The Hon. Mr. Bedinger, late Minister to Spain, was also present, snd at the hour at which the lecturer opened the proceedings there could pot have been less than six hun- dred persons present, inclusive of an immense assemblage of medical students, Dr. Francis very ably handled the intricate subject of his lecture, and clearly and explicitly discoursed on ana. tomical preparations, aad the progress of anatomy as a science tn particular, earnestly impressing upon those who were young in the profession to give their earnest study and application to the acqnirement of sound practi- cal knowledge. ‘The lecturer was frequenlly applauded as he proceeded. At the close of the lecture two very rare and difficult operations were performed before the assembl ence. One was the removal of the entire lower the other the removal of nearly the whoie of the bon on one side of the face—that is, of the upper jaw and check bone, as also the lower part of the orbit of the eye. the one case the patient was a male,and in the othe female—the oper © being Dr. James R.

Times : readers of the Times will doubtless re member the arrivalat Liverpool, in July, 1857, of a smail craft named the Charter Oak, only tweuty’three tons burthen, from New York, ber owner and builder having performed the perilous passage across the Atlantic in this frail bark with asingle companion. The adven- turous navigator, whose name is ‘les R. Webb, has now accomplished a second enterprise of the kind, having arrived at this port ou Saturday evening in a small cutter named the Christopber Columbus, this time a by two boys, both eighteen years of age, neither previously acquainted with nautical pursuits. The cutter sailed from New York ou the 19th of August, and has oc- cupied forty-five days in the voyage. She is ps | forty five tons burtben, fifty-three feet in length over all, forty- five feet keel, sixteen fect in width, and the mast is fifty fect six inches long. She has no raised bulwarks, the deck being merely protected by a stout rope sustained by iron stanchions. Her greatest draught of water is six feet. A more frail looking bark in which to cross the stormy Atlantic it is scarcely possible to conceive, aud as she hes off the town quay, surrounded by the larger craft built for the purposes of our river and coast, few would imagine or scarce be! it when told them, that this miniature vessel could bave travelled over such a wild waste of waters. The Christopher Columbus was built at Stamford, Con. necticut, in seven months, every part of the work being executed by Webb himself, except the stepping of the mast and the rigging, even to the cutting down and shap- ing of the timber with which she is constructed. Webb is ‘a native of Stamford, twenty nine years of age, and a ship wright by trade, his nautical knowledge, as he tells us, having been gained while working as @ carpenter on board a Liverpool packet ship. This is the seventeenth voyage he has made across the Atlantic—nine out and eight home. ‘The two boys by whom he was accompanied in his daring adventure are named George Colles and Saniuel Scofield. The voyage bas been conducted throughout on striet tem- perance principles, and the stores of provisions were of a very modest and vn epicurean character, comprising only Discuit, mackere! and hams, with a little salt beef, The vessel is built of oak, and sloop rigged. A piain cabin, with sleeping receases on either side, in the centre of the vessel, the stores occupying either’ end, constitutes the whole internal economy of this remarkable craft.

DEATH OF MAVROCORDATO, THE GRERK STATRSMAN. Accounts of recent date from Greece annoance the death of Prince Mavnocorpato, a patriot Greek, who hae been prominent in the affairs of his country for many years, and whose name has been familiar to our readers through cOntemporary Literature—-particularly the adventures of Lord Byron, as reiated by himself, by Dr. Kennedy, Moore, Trelawney and others, ‘Alexander Mayrocordato was born in 17 nople. He wae descended from an ancient be which has for generations served the Porte as hospo- jars and dragomen, for which posts of honor the facile quick spirited Greeks are peculiarly adapted ancestors was 6 principal negotiator on “Carlow tz bloody plain,” in 1690, and the father of Alexander was drago man to the Porte. When a young man, Mavrocordato was a successful student of Ianguages, particularly those of Fastern lands, and while still very young he lield a_ post tion in the Cabinet of his uncle, the Hospodar of Walla chia, who, being detected in a conspiracy, fed from Wal- lachia to escape the vengeance of the Porte. Alexander accompanied him voluntarily, and they visited Switzer- jand and Italy, where Mavrocordato eni with Greek avidity upon the study of the arte of diplomacy and war, While at Pisa he was invited to take part in the Greek re- Ome of hig volut.on, bis sword wags soon unsheathed. Freighting a vessel at Marseilles, he sailed for Greece, with a few French volunteers. With great talent he organized a bhp ag Aken for Western Greece, abd Was instrumental in bringing ‘the wild Alba inns, kirtled to the kuee,’ as well as Bozzaris and Lie gallant Zaliotes, to the standard of Greece. With the aid of these heroes he fortified Missslongl' Kurebid Pasba’s army, and withstood several Turkish attacks. It was here that Bozzaris fell fighting and Byron died from the malaria of the marshes. All through the revolution Mavrocoreato was active as head of the provisional gov- ernment, and was in great measure the creator of the Greek Constitution. He was the first President, and while hoiding that office displayed most masterly skill in recon- ciling the wild partisan chieftaine of the country, and in financial operations. At Navarivo Mayrocordato distin- guished bimeelf by bie bravery and coolness, and here he made a most wondrous escape, an animated account of which be has written.

In the New York Hexato of the 7th inst. an article ap peared, under the caption, “The Burning of the Crystal Palace—-No Safety in Iron,” to which I solicit of your jus tice the privilege of making a brief reply. The examples cited to support the argument of that article, as expressed in the heading to it, were the facis that the Crystal Palace, thongh built of iron, was burned to the ground in forty minutes; and that the steamer Austria, although having an iron hull, was destroyed by fire, with a terri ble loss of life among her passengers. The fact is, cor- tainly, ag stated by the Hymarp; but stil! it is not strange that these structures were so destroyed, for it could not be expected, from the material that composed the flooring aud other of the interior of them, that it could be otherwise. ‘They were each—to use an allowable simitie—nothing !\t immense stoves, within which there was an abundance of combustible material that needed nothing but an accident to putina blaze, With the Crystal Palace as well as with the steamer Austria, it was merely the outer shell that wasincombustible, All other parts were composed of tnaterials hilly combustible, as experience bas shown, to such an exteut a» to make entire destruction the work of comparatively bet a short time. The same is the case with an ordinary brick dweiling. The walls are certainly non-combustible, but we have daily examples of buildings with brick walls be:ng burned.

This can easily be secured, either in buildings or vessels.
