There were no works where the cables could be made. Everything had to begun de novo. It was in this emergency that Mr. Pender's genius and power of making combinations came into full play and activity.

About this time the scheme of telegraphic con- nection with India and the East began to be talked about. The Red Sea cable had already failed, and the whole project, owing to that mishap, was looked upon with coldness and distrust. The success the Atlantic cable, however, revived faith in the undertaking, and Mr. Pender gave it his powerful sup port. He was made Chairman of the Eastern Telegraph Company. He went to work slowly and patiently, Line after line was built, un- til at last the immense cable system was prefected which extends to India and Australasia, and along the Indian Ocean from Port Natal towards of 170 persons at the same time.

Mr. Pender is very generous. During the cotton famine in Manchester in 1863 he con- ceived the excellent Ides of opening eating-houses where the suffering work-people could get food at cost. They were exceedingly successful, and did much to relieve the distressed operatives. In politics he is a Liberal, and at present represents in Parliament the Northern (or Wick). Burghs in Scotland. His London home f said to be one of the most delightful as a social centre in the English metropolis. It is the famous residence built by Charles the Second for Nell Gwyrine. His artistic tastes are shown by the fact that he possesses many of the masterpieces of Turner and Landscer.

Professor Ayrlan lectured before the members of the London Institution on the evening of the 15th ulto, upon the subject of "Electric Lighting and Locomotion." There was one case, he said, where the driving of fans by electro-motors ap peared to him to be at the present moment of vital importance to us as citizens of London. For years past we had gone on breathing the foul air in the Underground Railway.. Why, he asked, did we not put fans at suitable intervals along the tunnel attached to pipes for extracting the bad air? The fans could not of course be driven by steam engines, but an electro-mator altached directly to each fan would furnish the driving power We take the following interesting sketch of the No gearing would be necessary; a single insu without.introducing any inconvenience whatever, career of the man who has put a girdle'round. lated going and return wire would convey from the earth" from an American contemporary m motor to motor the electric power produced by a Mr. John Pender, M.P., who has returned to large dynamo outside the tunnel, and a 'steam England after a brief visit to some of the Western engine might puff away in some back yard, States, has justly been called the "Cable King." out of everybody's way, and by this means give He is to submarine (elegraphy what Huskisson, us perfect ventilation on the Underground Kailsuck-prices-upon-such-terms-as-to-the whose atatuc stands in one of the streets of way.
