    THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.

Wliboat laanlallon. Programme of
Operation).
In the London 1 intra oi June 23, we find the
followiiisr Interesting account of the prepara
tions tor the Atlantic, Telegraph expedition,
vhich is to start next week. It will be seen
that gome improvements have been mado tn the
apparatus to be used in this expedition, and
that a remarkable experiment has demonstrated
the feasibility of working the conducting wire
Without insulation.
The limes says: "If any illustration were
ever needed to show the unflinching determina
tion of English enterprise, no more signal ex
ample could be pointed out than in the repeated
costly and almost yearly efforts made to establish
permanent electrical communication betweon
this country and America. Within a week from
this date the tilth expedition organized lor this
purpose will leave England. In 1867 the first
effort was made, and tailed, when about three
hundred miles from the Irish shore. In 1858 it
was again attempted, with the two halves of the
Cable stowed in the Niagara and Aqamemwn;
and the terrific hurricane which both vessels
met with then, no doubt did serious injury to
their easily injured freight. Nevertheless, the
effort was persevered witb, and some one hun
dred miles were laid and lost between the two
ships. Acnin the 'wire squadron,' as it was
called, returned to Ireland, to start again for
ano.her attempt, and to the astonishment of all,
the damaged cable was not only laid, but
aotuall.y worked witb clearness for some days,
when it Gradually became incoherent, then ram
bling with occasional gleams ol intelligence, till
at last it became utterly intelligible, aud so di"d
out. It is needless to say how unhiippily the
expedition of hut year failed, and to this day it
( is not known whether the Injury to the cable's
' insulation was caused by accident or wauton
mischief.
"The commercial loss upon these failures hai
keen greHt; but even out of tbe evil ha9 come
some good, for in the interim the science of
making, test ins, and laying cables has so much
improved, that an undetected fault in an insu
lated wire has now become literally impo'sible;
while so much are the instruments for signalling
Improved, that not only can a slight fault be
disregarded, if necessary, but it Is even easy to
work through a submarine wire with a toot of
Its copper stripped and bare to the water. This
latter result, astonishing as it may appear, has
actually been achieved lor some days past with
the whole Atluntic cable, on board the Great
Eastei n. Out of a l?ngth of more than 1700
viles, a coil has been taken from its centre, the
copper conductor stripped clean of its insula
tion lor a toot in length, and in this condition
lowered over the vessel's side till it rested on the
S round, let, through this, the clearest signals
ave been sent so clear, indeed, as at one time
4o raice the question whether it would not be
worth while to grapple lor the first old Atlantic
cable ever laid, and, with these new instruments
working gently through it for a year or so at
lcat, make it pay its cost.
"Nothing, iu fact, can give a better idea of
the change which has come over the science
of submarine telegraphy than by the statement
of the manner in which the three cables of
1858, 18C5, and that of this year have been con
structed. The actual constituents of each is as
lollops:

nttBt v, inter Cuutiuu Anderson and Mr. Uiiipin,
THE DAILY
his chief officer, have worked incessantly to get
her into perlect seagoing trim, and she will
start next week in belter condition than she ha
ever belore commenced a voyage. Bv a very
simple apparatus, invented by Captain Ander
son, every part of the bottom of the ship has
been thoroughly scrubbed; and how much this
was wanting maybe judged from the tact that
in many parts tbe mussels were in clusters of
more than two feet thick upon her. Getting
rid of this rough, shapeless rnas from under
her entire length will add at least a knot an
hour to the vessel's speed.
OTBBR IMPROVEMENTS.
"All tbe boilers have been thoroughly cleaned
nnd repaired In every part, and the paddle
engines, by a very simple contrivance, can be
disconnected in less than four minutes, so that
by going ahead with one and astern with tbe
other the Great Eastern can be turned in her
own length, as on a pivot. In picking up or
grappling for cable this facility will be of the
very last importance to the operations.
STOWAGE OF TUB CABLE,
"All the cable is not yet on board the great
ship. The Amethyst is now discharging into the
altermoxt tank, aiid all the cable she has will be
coiled away this evening. The Iris, which left
Greenwich' yeoterday with the last instalment of
electrical rope, will finish her task by Thursday,
on which day there will be no less than two
thousand four hundred miles of cable on board
the Great Eastern, ot which seven hundred and
forty-eieht miles is part of the old cable of last
year. This is stowed, as heretofore, in the three
immense iron tanks built up from the rnln
deck, one forward, one amld'hips, and oue aft
of tbe vessel. The weight of these tanks and
the water in them is upwards of 1000 tons, and
in addition the Ore it Eastern will carry H500
tons of coal, 600 tons ot telegraph stores and
machinery, and 4(100 tors ot cable a dead
weight cargo of more than 14,000 tons in ail,
exclusive ot engines, rig, and all ship's fittings,
which will amount to nearly as much more.
Th's, however, only brings the vessel down to
her fair loud-line iu fact," into the perfect trim
In which she left last year, when the utmost
swell of an ancry Atlantic sea could do little
more than mako her dip occasionally among its
rugged furrows.
THE SUrrLT OF COAL.
"It has been thought advisable, however, con
Eidering the Great Eastern's depth in the water,
and the somewhat shallow channels she will
have to pass on her way to the liver's mouth,
not to put all the coals in her belore she leaves
Bheerness. At Bearhaven, therefore, 2500 tons
will be taken ou board before she starts for
Valentia, nnd alter joining the shore end,
steams away on her adventurous voyage across
tho Atlantic. Except, then, in this matter of
coals, she will leave the Thames completely
equipped.
THE rAYING-OUT AND DAULING-IN APPARATUS.
"Among her stoies are twenty miles of
gjappling-rope of the most powerful kind that
can be mane, and equal to a strain of thirty
tons. 8he also carries live miles of rope equu'l
to a strain of eleven tons, with quite a collection
of buoys, grappling-irons, slip ropes, etc. But
at the stem aud stern are fitted two powerful
lit tie engines, made by Messrs. Penn, each of
which works upto80-ho'rsepower. The.e are con
nected with the paying out nnd hauling in appa
ratus. Both theve latier have been slightly iui
pi oved since last year, and have been made as
light as possible, consistent with the work they
have to do. Certainly, the hauling-in powers of
the engines are likely to be much in excess ot
whnt is required to be done. Last year their
efloits fell snort of what was necessary.
THE CONVOY.
"With the Great Eastern on Saturday next
will also start her Majesty's steamship Terrible,
iweniy-one, ana me steamers wwtam Lorry,
Albany and Aledwav. Each of these vessels is of
nearly one thousand eight hundred tons burden,
and all, with the exception of the Terrible, will
De amply supplied with buoys, Duoy ropes, grap
pling ropes, and grappling irons similar to those
on board the Great' Eastern. The Medway will
take also three hundred and fifteen miles of last
year's cable, with ninety-one miles of the mas
sive rope to ue used m crossing irom Newlouna
land to the shores of the American continent.
The William Carry takes the tremendous iron
coil which is to form the Irish shore end, which
is no less than thirty miles in length, and weighs
more than two hundred and fifty tons, or about
eight tons to the mile.
PROGRAMME OF OPERATIONS.
"The programme of operations now decided
upon is briefly as follows: -The Great Eastern
is, as we have said, to proceed to Bearhaven on
Saturday next. There she will take on board
her final stores of coal, and while so occupied
the new shore end from Foilhommcrum bay will
be laid from the William Lorry. When this is
completed aud the operation is likely to last at
least two days the Great Eastern will come
round to Valencia, and alter having made the
splice, will at once commence the great work ot
laying the main cable. Last year it 13 fancied
that the speed ot the Great Eastern was occa
sionally too great for "alely paving out the rope.
This time, therefore, her rale ot going will be
absolutely limited to below six knots. At this
speed it will occupy elevpn or twelve d'tys to
complete her labors from Valeutia Bay to Heart's
Content.
"During the whola time of the operation the
new instruments will be able to send signals
through to Valentia at every hour, statins the
latitude and longitude of the great ship, the
weather, amount of cable paid out, etc. Ordi
nary news and messages likely to interest thoio
at sea and isolatedtfrom the rest of the world.
are aUo to be sent in reply from Ireland to the
went jiasiern.
"Vessels have already been sent out to New
foundlund w ith three thousand tons of coal, and
supposing the expedition to be successful, the
Great Eastern will take these on board and re
turn to ihe spot w here the cable was so unfortu
nately broken last year. This is to be grappled
tor, aud even if six weeks or two months are
consumed in the cllorts, grappled for till found.
If the end is got to the suiiaee. of course the
usual splice will be made with the portions
which are now istowed on board the Great ftasurn
and the William L'urry, whnu the Uig ship will
again return to Heart s Content bay and lay the
remainder on her passage.
"Thus, if ell goes well, the monlh of Septem
ber. at latest, will see us with two lines of Me-
graph to America, and both of which, when
once down in deep water, are likely to remain
in order for years to ccme. The arrangements
made for raising the cable ol last year are as
perlect as con well be imagined. We shall de
scribe thorn aud other matters of much interest
connected with the expedition on an early day.
At present we have only given an outline of the
programme of action laid down for one ot the
best fitted and most important telegraphic expe
ditions that ever quitted the English snores."
