MISCELLANEOUS FORSIGN ITEMS. Sir Charles T. Bright writing to the London Times on the hopes from the Atlantic cabie says:—No one cau spsak with absolute certainty a to the cause of the cavle coas ing to be useful; some have believed it to buve arisen from injury received during the process of paying out. This sopposition is incorrect, the cable having been laid without any mechanteal injury wha’ever. Others have ascribed it to the declivities upon which they suppored it to have been Jaid; but this la pote likely hypothesis, for if the protection of the iron outer covering was once des- troyed in the manner supposed, the gntte percna aad cop- per conductor muet have given way atthe same time. It has, however, been averted by Mr. Varley, whom the At- Imntic Company consulted after the cessation of signais, and in whose practical judgment on electrical points I have the greatest confidence, thats verious electrical fauit ex. isted mm the cab e prior wo the departure of the expetition to lay it; this he arrived at from an examinataon of the re cords ot’ the testing of the cable before the ships started.

One of the city jdurnals gives an aes sant of the use of @ gort of moveable telegraph, by whico all operating Froach troops and corps are enabled to be in immediate and per- manent communication. Admit ing all which osu or could add to the glory of the French and their apotheosised jar, thie journal wraps the description of this ingenious imperial invention in a cloud of mystery, and gives us to understand that tbe glo- rious invention was cpio this day a perfect secret, and belonged, perhaps, to that series of wonders which to wit- nes, see and astonish, the correspondent of the London ‘Times prepared big readers by some hints moro myste- rious and darker than the revelatioas of St. John. Now, the ure of the telegraphic wire for operating or MmaNcwuyreing troops anu ariiite— Ze tclcgrayh mahila,?? as it ig.called by professional men—is not only an invention already nearly ten years old (ana ten years will eay mach for telegraphic improvement), bat it was and is ia fail and open practice in almost all great European armioz, the Avstrien army not excepted. The Prussian army was the fret to make practical experiments at the great fleld manceuvres nesr Berlin and Potedam in 2852. Having witnesse! these operations I will give a short description of tne working of such a {clegraph mobile.” Iwill do it as graphically as pos. e— Suppose an army, consigting of two corps d’arméc, be about to operate from Cast!glooe agains’ tho 0 one corpe marching in the direction northeast againat Peschiera, the cther in the direction southeas: against Mantua, In the arriére garde & both corps are three or foar telegraphic officers, who, by the help ofa small body ot pioueers, lay down a very fine telegraph wire, supported on. thin aticka, two or three fect high, and stretched or strained from distance to distance by a little portable ten- sion rack. The wire, being roiled on a kind of rolling logs, ‘s so thin that each roll, containing the material for two to three miles, weighs not more than fire or wix pounis, aud ig therefore managed by one man with facitity. The pioueere carrying the wirer be sup sticks and the instruments, march on in’ equal pyre with the other troops of the arricré garde, but somewhat in tne rear of them. From distance to distance, sentinels or posts are leit {o survey and protect tue wire. Now, if the rat corps arrives, we will say #t Pesobiera, and the second at Mantua—a distance of weventeen miles— a wire jg laid between Peschiera and Mantua. fue arri- eré garde of both corps, and ia this way the corps thea- telves are connected, via Osstiglione, by 2 wire, aad every che Wil! understand that by these meane talegra pbic communication can immoediately be established be- iween the two corps, The gaivapic apparatus to eend negative aad positive currents through the wire, are of very smpie and ‘nge- pious truction, and n0t beavy at ali. focy are the invention of Prof. Memens, Direstor of tae Yruesian Laie grapbic Department.

Some sensation has been created here during the laat few weeks by the renewal of political differences between Colonel Davis and Messre. Toombs and Siephens, of Georgia.
