It @ now noarly four years since the mechanical dif- culties which, it was generally supposed, would prevont the laying of the submarine cable betwoen Ireland and Newfoundland, were surmounted by its successful sub- M@ersion. The one important fact was then established for the first time, that the great depth of the ocean and the distance to be traversed did not present an insu- Perable obstacle to the work, and that, even in a stormy Sea, it could be carried on with comparatively little risk to the success of the undertaking. The dopth of the ocean between Ireland and Newfoundland, the two points of connection in the Old and New Worlds, was proved by soundings to be from two to two auda half miles, while the distance was not less than sixteen hundred and forty mautioal miles, The work was performed by two ves- sels—the United States frigate Niagara and the British ship-of-war Agamemnon—in six days, both ves- fels starting from mid-ocean, and each sieam- ing towards its place of destination, at which it arrived onthe 5th of August, 1858, Unfortunately, however, for the permanent success of the undertaking, the cable was found to be defective, although the transmission of Messages between the two termini of the line—Trinity Bay in Nowfoundiand and Valentia Bay in Ircland— proved, beyond all doubt, its practicability and the eventual triumph of the great enterprise. Independent of the numerous messages transmitted through tho @able, defective as it was, the despatch which was sent from the British War Office in London to Canada, coun” tormanding an order previously sent by mail, directing the embarkation of two regiments for India—thus saving the British governmont from forty to sixty thousand Pounds—this despatch alone furnishes incontrovertible evidence not only of the success-of the operation, but of the immense valve of the line, not only for gonimercial, Dutfor governmestal purposes. There are still some skepties who deny that @ single word was over telo- Grephed through the cable, and who porsist in their denial despite of the incontrovertible} fact that seve- eal messages were trausmitted by it, the news @ontained in which could not possibly have been made ‘enown through any other modium. Of sucha character was the intelligence of the Chinese treaty, which was ‘published hore only one day later then it appeared in the English papers. To this proof must be added another, ‘wo less conclusive on the matter. We rofer to tho de- Spatch in regard to the collisicn botween the Europa and Arabia, near Halifax, which *ppoared fa the English papers the morning after its oscurrence. Leaving ou, of question the charactor of the Atlautic Telegraph Coin. pany, these wore despatches that could not possibly have deen made through the collusion of interested parties anleag those parties possessed the gift of prophecy, and thus divined what was about to happen just in time to avail thomsclves of the knowledge fur the benoit of their interest in the great enterprise. But no man who has given the Subject a fair consideration allows himself to Deswayed by such reports. It is only for the benefit of shose who were not convorsant with the facts of the oase that we have entered even into these particulars. At no time after the cable had been laid Mid 1% work with complete or wniform success. This was attributable to several canses, chief «mong which was its impaired condition before it was submerged—in fact, before it was coiled on board the vessels. This was occasioned b, its oxposure to the heat of @ midsummer sun, whieh wes intensified by tho tar shrough which the cable had been passed to prevent the sorrosion of its outer covering of iron wire from rain. Another cause, which did not, howe: or, operate so forci- bly to the injury of the cable, was to be found In the fact that half of it was made with the twist one way and hail the other, in consequence of ite having beon manutac tured in two different establishments. In edd to shese two causes, thore was auother ~bich militated to AB considerable extent against its suco ful aud continued working. This was the forcing of t-» powerful charges into the conductor. The experience which has been gained, not only in the case of the Atlantic Telegraph, but to the many submarine cables which have beon ince \aid, will prevent a repotition of these mistakes, and insure the practical triurapt of the work when it shall be ‘again attorpted. Wo have said ths: the diztance between the two points which it is proposed to connect is sixteen hundred’and forty nautical miles; but, in viow of what has been thus ‘ar accomplished in submarine telegraphing, this distance does not present any obstacle to the completion of the work that has not already been overcome. A cable has been submerged from Multa to Alexandria, which is no los ‘an fifteen hundred and thirty five miles in length, and this cable is now in perfect working order, although il is tw years since tt was laid. Woe may add that the ostabiieh- ment by which this cablowas manufactured and put down—the great manufacturing firm of Glass, Kiliott & G., of Greonwich—has submerged no leas than twenty. (our cables, varying in iength from two to over fifteen hundred miles, since the year 1964, the aggregate lengih of all being three thousand handred and seveaty- seven. Could there be a stronger or more satisfactory assurance of the ultimate success of the Atlantic Tele graph than is furnished by these figures. But, when we add that all these lines are working successfully, shoud anything more in the way of evidence be desired? Tost, howovor, the precise acouracy of this statement should be impugned, we shall state that two of those lines (short ones), which were laid in shallow water along the British shore between Liverpool and Holyhead, wil from Priace Edward's island to New Brunawick, were broken by the fouling of ships’ anchors. Both, however, can be easily repaired, while the occurrence of similar casualties to others can be prevented by having the outer wires of the cablo made of strongth suificiont to roaiat tho dragging force of a lino-of-battle ship ina gale of wind. Great improvemente have been made during tho las, three or four years in the manufacture of submarine cablos, and such bag been the atteation given to the sub. foot that it is hardly too much to say that thoy have now arrived as near to perfection aa it is possibl , in the production of ocean lines. The cable which it 1s proposed to lay between the Old World and the New ty Oontrived with great ingenuity, and is aimirabiy adapted tothe requirements to which it will bes Poesenses many advantages over the old Ati graph cable, besides being free from the defacts w: O08 between the two, we have had perfect facsimi! of nah oneravad No. 1 ‘The smalior cabIe, wNiod 1 marked No. 4, (a thet which NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, APRIL 24, 1862.-TRIPLE SHEET. | was laid i August, 1858, The larger one, which :« marked No.2, is the now line which it is propased to submerge | next year, aud which has been alrondy tested tn the most satisfactory manner aod with the most decided success. The relalive sizes are preserved in both engravings, the ardist having been furnished with specimens of each cable from which to make his drawings. A brief descrip- Lon of each will prove the great superiority of eable No, 2 over cable No. 1 for submarine telegraphing. A glance at both shows the great differeace tn the 8 ize of the conductors, that in No. 2 being more than five times larger than the conductor in No, 1, while it posseases over six times its conducting power—that is, from sixteen to eighteen words a minute can be trans” mitted through it, in consequence of ite greater size as wollas the superior quality of the copper, from which latter desideratum slona {t acquires @ proportionate speed equal toan increase of Mfty per cent. In theold cable (No.1) the conductor, which consists ef seven snail wires, is insulated with three coverings of gutta percha and one of hemp, while over all are laid eighteen strands of stnall sized iron wire, to give It the requisite strongth. Cable No.2, besides the great advantage which it possesses in the largely inareased size of the conductor, is much superior in point of insulation, The conducter is insulated with four coverings or layers of the purest kind of gutta percha, and between each of these layers is acomposition known as Chatterton’s com- pound, the materials composing which we are not at liberty to publish, It is, however, sufficient to know that it is of such acharacter as, in combination with the gutta percha, to render thg cable perfectly impermeable by salt water. In the engraving the gutta percha is marked in black, while the white circles indicate Chatterton’s com. pound. The copper and iron wires are easily distinguished dy their being represented in white. {Instead of eighteen strands of iron wire for an outer covering, each strand c@sisting of seven wires, woe have in the new cabio but thirteen strands, each strand consisting of but three wires. Each of these thirteen strands is covered or insu- lated with gutta percha to protect it from the corrosive action of the sea water, thus rendering it indestructible in the great dopths of the ocean. The weight of the con- ductor alone, in cable No. 1, is minety-three pounds to the mile, while that in cable No. 2 is more than five times heavier, being five hundred and ten poundg to the same length. The difference in the relative weights is as folows:—No. 1, two thousand pounds to the mile; No. 2, two thousand five hundred pounds. These aro the comparative weights in atr; but their weights in water show largely in favor of the new cable; for, while the old one was sixteen hundred pounds, the new cable does not woigh more than twelve hundred pounds when submerged j2 water, There is one other advantage which should not be omitted, and which was so clearly and forcibly expressed by the Hon. Stuart Wortley, of London, in an interview which was accorded a doputation of the company by Lord Palmerston on the 21st of March last, that we shall use his language. ‘It is ascertained,” said Mr. Wortley, “that instead of using small conductors with high electric power, we should have large conduct- tug wires of the finest copper, and work with low power.”” This principle, which has been satisfactorily established, has governed the manufacturers in the production of the new cable,and the result is that the great incroase i? able incr! on Tues banging § power alrcady specitied has been attained. Whether wo look upon this improvement with regard to its greatad” vantage fa commercial or pecuniary point of view, with régard to its value so far as the wants of the mor- cantile classes are concerned, or the increased profits whieh it will return to the stockholders, its importance can hardly be overestimated. There {s only one more re- mark that remains to bo made with regard to this cable, which is that its cost will be two hundred pounds, or one thousand dollars per gnile. ; ‘The favor with which the enterprise is regarded by the United States and British govervments, and its impor- tance 84 means of communication between both for governmental purposes, give the strongest assurance that they will afford a guarantee in the form of o fair interest on the capital invested, so as t ensble the company to raise the required amount— seven hmndred thousand pounds, or three and a half millions of dollars—which would leave ao large margin over the actual expenses. The gua- rantee asked by the company is four per cent upon this capital, amouating in the aggregate to twonty- eight thousand pounds, or one hundred and forty thon, sand dotiars—each government to ,pay one-half, or two per cent; and the time to which this guarantee would no doubt that such @ guarantee will bo given py the British government alone or in connection with our own: That our government takes an earnest interest in the suecess of the undertaking ig evident from the following paragraph, contained iu an official despatch from Mr. Seward to the United States Minister at the Court of St dames, which paragraph, we may state, was read by Mr. Cyrus W. Field at a meeting of the shareboiders of the Atlantic Telegraph Company held in London on the 19th of March last :— ‘You may say to Earl Russell that the President enter- tains the most favorable views of the great enterprisc in question, and would be happy tp co-operate with the Brit'sh government in securing its successful execution, and such arrangements as would guarantee to both na- tions reciprocal benefits from the use of the raph, not only in times of peace, but even in times o contrary to our desire and expectation, and to t! detriment of both nations, war sbould over tween them, q The chief objection which has been urged againys the li that it would be of more advantage to Grea Britain than to the United States; but this objection will completely disappear when the matter is submitted to the test of a fair investigation. While it is true that Europe would have the benefit of eommercial or other cominnieation with America, we would be placed within imm © reach of every capital and every great com- mercial ceiitre of every civilized country in the Old World, The greet advantage would therefore bo on our side, and no portion of our community would be more prompt to realize this advantage than our commercial and mercantile classes. They would not be slow to find out that it would place the United States, as a grain growing ,0n AN equal footing with the grea: outlets to the vast grein regions of Russia, At present our merchant, are not posvessed of the advantages which are onjoyed by thove of England in the invaluable trade facilities af forded »y ‘he connecting lines of telegraph which con- vey the\r orders almost with the speed of thought to the dealers cut traders in far-o% Odessa, How ts tt with us? While the merchants of Liverpoo} can putclage & cargo of wheat in Odesga, and, aa has been forcibly urged, be ready to dispose of it afloat in one hour's time, it takes twenty-five days to accomplish the sare thing with this country. ‘Yo simplify the’mat- ter, tho advantages possessed by I)issiau oror Amori can merchants are in proportion te ‘iw diffrence be tween telegraphic and mail co .monication, Dut to render it still more intelligibie, w> viii suppose that one balf the flour merchant of Now Y¥. . k possessed exclusive use and eontrol of all the telegraph lines with the West: they would occupy @ position towards the other half that the British merchants now occupy towards the merehants of the United States, Then, again, the advantage of an Atlantic Tilegraph is seon at once in the opportunities which it affords ia case of an advancg in price, ny altogether, as things now stand, we Metts rs compete en anything like equal ground with the grain markets of Europe. But let the Atlantic Telegraph be converted Into @ grand reality, and our merchante will have a fair fleid before them. Looking at tho Atlantic Telegraph ae a paying specu. lation, it is only necessary to state that there are now comp!oted iu Europe and America no leas than one Aun. dred and fifty thowand miles of telegraph lines, ai! of which would be so many feeders to @ great submarine cable across the Atlantic. It would be nard to fimd amore forcible recommondation of it to the favor of the capi. taliste of both countries.
