almost as old as the elsetris telegraph itself would some day matorialise by the Americans laying an American oable to China, and that the natural course of things the American traffic would fall to that cablo. Now that this day has core, we may console ourselves with the consideration that the new and old lines. will naturally set as feaders to one another, as the more branches to tree so more fruits, Furthermore the new oable will necessarily unso our own lines and allow us to concentrate all our afforts on the improvement of our servicos through Earups and elsewhere. Finally, through the new cable a string has been added to the bow, so that in ons af acident the one line may serve as a reserve to the other. At this very moment the advantage is proved by the sad calamity which has stopped, let us hope quite temporarily, the regular cable communica tion with Ameries vid San Francisco. This is the practical point of view. From a sentimental point of view foron telegraph companies may sometimes be allowed to be sentimental, although generally credited with having no soul, but only pockets) the Northern Company least might find some cause for welcoming the com- pany in the thought that there is a certain,
at
thongh remote, kinahip between the two. I refer to the fact that the origin of the Great Northern and Fer Eastern systain may in reality be traved back to one of the earliest plans for establishing telegraphic communiction between the continents of Asia and America, namoly, the project of an American citizen, who in the middio of the last century, about 1854, before the Atlantic cables had been laid, planned the connection of Europe with America by means of an overland wire through Sibarin to the Behring Strait, with submarine cable across to Alaska. The building of this line was setually commenced. The Bu sians carried their line nearly to the coast of the Pacific, and on the American side a land line was also laid towards the Arotic regions.

In the meantime, the Siberian lias was there and the desire to utilise it led to an extension by cable to Japan and Chiua, that is to say, the system of the Groat Northern.
