THE ATLANTIC CABLE—PROBABLE CAUSE OF ITS FAILURE. The failure of the Atlantic Telegraph is not to be attributed to any defect in the Cable, but most probably to the magnetic intensities of the two continents.
It i9 well known that the magnetic needle varies from a true Northerly course in proportion to the distance it is removed either East, or West of, the line of no variation.
The same law which makes the magnetic needle subservient to the Pole, will affect a currcnt of electricity on its passage through the Cable.
The continents of Europe and America may be considered as two vast magnets, whose magnetic influences are struggling for the mastery. Were their magnetic influence equal, the difficulty to ovcrcotne would be about the center of the Cable but as the true line of no variation is passing over this continent, in its passage around the globe from East to West, its magnetic influence is greater than that of Europe, and consequently the point of difficulty is somewhere between the center of the Atlantic Ocean and the coast of Ireland, and liencc the reason why it has been found that a stronger currcnt of electricity can be transmitted from Ireland to Newfoundland, than from Newfoundland to Ireland.
Were there no other difficulty in the way, than a defect in the Cable, I am inclined to think that currents of electricity transmitted from either end of the line, would be very similar in strength on reaching their opposite points of destination neither would they, 1 imagine, be as variable as has been represented.
The magnetic intensity of the Globe is also continually changing according to the magnetic condition of the atmosphere which surrounds if, and that may possibly be the reason why the supposed defect in the cable appears at times to be near the Irish coast, at other times far out at sea.
If this theory be correct, it will be found that during the summer months, short messages may at times be successfully transmitted from either end of the line, bccau.sc the clcctrieal condition of the atmosphere will occasionally be such (particularly during the month of July and August) r.s to equalize in a great degree the magnetic intensity of the earth throughout the whole length cf the cable. Whenever the elec tricity in the atmosphere is equally distributed, there is nothing to counteract the ground currents of electricity which are continually flowing towards both etuis of the line from that point in the cable where the magnetic intensity of the earth is the weakest, and at such times the telegraph will be useless.
Ucforc, then, any attempt is made to lay

THA1VKSGIVIJIG-DAY SCEKE IN NErt YORK-HEARTLESS HOAX. On Thursday (Thanksgiving Day) hundreds of the poor of New York were made the dupes of some reckless, unfeeling wrctch. who secured the publication of a notice, to which he forged the namc9 of several respectable citizens, announcing that on that day G.000 pounds of bread and 1,200 pounds of beef would be distributed to the poor at Union-square. Tho Tribune, after stating that the notice was a cruel hoax, says:
Before nine A. M. the poor folks began to assemble in the square, and at ten o'clock wc were informed that there could not have been less than 4,000 persons present.— When we"arrived many hungry and heartsick people had gone away. Among those that we saw were man)' men, evidently mechanics out of employment, whom winter had fount! wholly unprepared in c'otiics or purse. The women, and they wore by far the most numerous, woro on their carefull, sad fiices, untold tales of suffering and privation.! and"the little children, whose cotton rags scarce served to cover their nakedness, were terrible to look upon— they seemed to lose their youthfuiness and shrivel up into little old men and women before the sharp November frost.
So far as we could learn from conversing with these people, they had come from far and near—some of them soveral miles —and many had not eaten during the day. One poor American woman who sat on a bench in the Park, with two sweet little children nestling under her scant}- shawl, told us she had walked from near Grandstreet ferry, and that she aud her litile ones had not tasted food since tha day before. She was a widow, decently but scantily dressed, and told us, with tears in her eyes, that she found it a hard taskto keep the wolf from her door. One of her children was a bright, fair-haired little boy of six years, the other a girl of four.— We told the poor woman that she need not wait any longer, the notice in the newspaper was a hoax. As she turned to go home she
c:\id,
"Pity the man that could do so
heartless a thing!" There were many such groups in that assemblage. We left tho square about one o'clock several half-tipsey men were then amusing themselves by scattering small change among the crowd and watching tho frantic cagernesg with which the famished wretches scrambled for the coins.
A IJLUK I'lIAs.
The election of a Democratic member of Congress in Wisconsin, and another in Michigan, has taken the Iiepubliean.3 by _snrpri.se. In their victorious march thro'
another cable, it would be well to ascertain the country, the thought of defeat in asinthe true eausc of the failure of the present gle State "had not once occurred to them, one, and if it should be found that its failure proceeds from the magnetic condition of the earth, another route must be adopted, and that (in order to insure success) should be by way of Greenland, Iceland and Scotland, as the adoption of a more southerly route, if put in practice, would only result in another failure and disappointment.
and especially in such llepublican strongholds as the above. Hence the election of these Democrats is peculiarly aggravating to them. Though compelled to concede the fact, they are unwilling to admit that it was a fair fight. Convinced that they ought to have triumphed, they are now putting their wits together to account for their defeat. Various and logical are their deductions. The Trihunc says that a rain storm prevented a full Republican vote also, that the Democratic candidates were the ablest men while the Albany Journal attributes the success of the Democrats to their having repudiated tiic Kansas policy of the Administration. We trust the Republicans will settle the question to their satisfaction.—.V. Y. .Jour. Com.

appear by any means equal to the quantity of water "which tLe three upper great lakes receive, it has been conjectured that a subterranean river may run from Lake Superior to Huron and to Lake Ontario. This conjecture is by no means improbable, and accounts for the singular fact that salmon and herring arc caught in all the lakes communicating with the St. Lawrence, but in no others. As the Falls of Niagara must have always existed, it would puzzle the naturalisti to say how these fish got into the upper lakes without some such subterranean river moreover, any periodical obstruction of the river would furnish a not improbable solution of the flux and influx of tho lakes.
Upon this, the editor of the Scientific American remarks: "Are Balmon and herring found in the lakes and rivers above the Falls of Niagara? If so, it affords Btrong grounds for supposing there is a subterranean communication oetween Ontario and tho upper lakes if not, we can ace no grounds for such a conclusion."

In thirty years all of our present Territories will be organized and occupied. Before that time, however, wc shall have acquired the best part of Mexico, Cuba and Central America.

DEATH OF ADAME IDA PFEIFFER. This celebrated traveler is dead. Sho was of Austrian parentage, born at Vienna in 1797. She was married to Dr. Pfeiffer" in 1820, and a few years later became a widow. The intense desire for travel" which she had folt since childhood had hitherto been repressed by circumstances, but now free to indulge it, she commcnced a series of voyages which certainly no wo* man, and perhaps no man living has paralleled. Having by several years of economy amassed & sufficient sum, she set off for Jerusalem, and her travels through the Holy Land formed the material for her first book. Ilcr next expedition was northward. through Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Iceland. She wrote another volitmu giving an account, of this journey, and i! was hardly issued from the press before she undertook another. This was no less than a tour round the world. She left Vienna in May, 1813, sailed to Ivio Janeiro, traversed Rrazil, went round Capo ITorn, landed in Chili, set sail again for Otahcitc, thence for China, atid from there to lt:dia. She passed on to Arabia, went up the Ti-, gris to visit Ninovah and Babylon, witidcrcd through lvhoordistan aiid Persia, crossed the Caueasus. went through Southern Russia, visited Constantinople, traveled through Greece, and re.'1. ned homo.
That a woman alone and unprotected should make such extensive voyages, and face the perils of sea and land,'and that, too, for pleasure only, e::cited great wonderment, when her account of it enme to be published. But tho public were to bn still more astonished. Hitherto she had traveled where others had traveled beforo, and where civilized coiv.mcrce had to somo extent penetrated. Her next excursion was among cannibals and savages. lu 1S51 she sailed to the Cspo of Good Hope, thcr.cc to Singapore, and thence took a tour to Sarawak in Borneo, and through tho dangerous country of the Dyaks. Perhaps her very audacity in coming among them, as well as her coolness and good humor, caused her to he received with hospitality, instead of being devoured as other European visitors had been. She laughingly told them sho was too old aud tough to bo good eating, and to their relish of the joke, she ascribed their forbearance to dine upon her. Fr.um tlicnco sho went to tho Spice Islands, then visited Calfornia, and then home, having a second time completed the circuit of the world, in opposite direction from her first journey. During all iier travel.' she had experienced excellent health, until in .Madagascar she contractcd a violent fever, who.se ef.e t's never entirely left her, and at last resulted in her death.

SHALL W!S HAVM CIVIL WA«! The Rochester speech of Senator Seward is" creating a profound Fcnsation in the country. The conservative Republicans arc frightened by such bold and open treason against the Union, and fir.eh an open proclamation cf war against fifteen States of the country. Ccrrit Smith, 'i heoiloro Parker, and William Lloyd Garrison, go not so far in declaring a crusade against the South. Whoever votes the Republican State ticket indorses Lis heresy of tho leader of ihe Republican party, for the speech was made to aid it and Mr. Morga».
The political issue submitted lo the people of this State is boldly and vickedly stated by Win. II.
