How the Cables Work.
At tbe banquet given on Thursday night in
New York in honor of Uyrus w. field, that
gentleman, in speaking of the working of the
cables, said:
"At nraannt the aim has been to ocure the
TtteuiDt and certain transmishlou of me".aire.
Th twn rubles do their Dart well. If anythinn,
the old oaM work belter than the new one, hut
the new one u constantly Improving. The cable
wild now be worked with a battery composed
of a ffiin-caa and a slip of zinc, excited by a
rirop of water. He would not be content until
a menage reached New York lrotn London in
seventy minute."
In regard to the high tariff upon messages,
Mr. Field said that $12,000,000 had been sunk
fcy the various compaines In perfecting the
eoterprlae ; but he promised that within a few
months the rates would be reduced toonc-
lourth of what they were at the first.
Thene tacts would seem to show that the
fears expressed by some scientific authorities,
that the cables would soon burn out, so to
epeak, by the powerful batteries which would
he required to force messages through so
long a circuit, are not destined to be real
ised. On the contrary, as they settle perma
nently into their beds at tbe bottom of the
ocean, and begin to be covered by the sedi
ment that is being continually deposited, they
actually Improve, and work with more facility
than at first.

. Dajr of Mournlug-A.il Saints' Day.
Paris, Novpmber 5.
TonJay is the day of the dead. All Paris has
put on mourning, and thousands thronir to the
meteries to place a nosegay or a garland of
Howers on the grave of a departed relative or
friend. Ye&terday being All Saints' Day, very
few Paris papers appeared; however, they were
not missed, as they have of late been sterile of
BPWt.
Health of Louis Napoleon.
The health of the Empero4 is still a cause of
anxiety to the partisans of the present dynasty.
Ilia Majesty is no looger the man he was. It i s
averted that he will not be able to upend the
winter in Paris, but that he will be obliged to
peek a more genial climate.
Tbe French Defence.
A commission has just been named by the
Emperor to consider what should be done to
place the national forces of the country in a
situation to assure the defense ot our terri
tory and. tbe maintenance.of our political influ
ence. The general opinion is that the Prussian
landwchr svsteoi, with some slight modifica
tion. Is that of all ottiors most adapted to the
French nation. It is calculated that, should
the Commission adopt the Prussian system, the
Government will, at any given moment, be able
to pluce more than a million men under arms.
The Austrian Prime Minister.
The great event of the day in foreign politics
a the nomination of Baron von Beust as Prime
Minister by the Emperor of Austria. This mea
sure, it Is feared, is likely to cau-e some unpleas
antness between the Courts ot Vienna and Berlin,
as it is a well-known fact that the Baron is, and
ha always been, antagonistic to the policy of
Hcrr von Bismark. Baron von Beust is a man
in the prime of life, and served his late master,
the King of Saxony, at the courts of the Tuile
ries, St. James, and Bavaria. In the timej of
political reaction which followed the Revolu
tion of 1848, be showed himself a bitter adver
sary of liberal aspirations, and peopled the cells
of the famous dungeons of Veldhelm with
political prisoners. He was the instigator of
the celebrated conferences of Dresden, which
remained without result, and contributed much
to the diplomatic defeat of Prussia at Oltnutz.
Since 1862 the Baron succeeded, more particu
larly by his eaergetic attitude in the affairs of
t he Ml bo Duchies, in effacing his reactionary
past, until at last, becoming; a martyr to the
system of small States, he was overthrown by
the tendencies to unification.
Relatione Between France and Austria.
The journals of Berlin and Vienna are ailed
with controversial articles, some of which are
not without interest. For instance, the follow
ing curious manifest appears in the Cologne
Gatette, the paper most favorable to auuexiaiou
of the Prussian prints:
"The acclamations with which the Prussian
Eress has welcomed the wise policy lollowod
y the Kmj-eror Napoleon in the Austro-Prus-siaa
quarrel, have not tailed to excite the re
proval and outrsfjeaus banter of the Austrian
prints, aitnounn ine assertion, so Irequently re
peated in the Vienna journals, ot a secret con
vention between France and Prussia, with the
object of securing French neutrality at the
Enco of concessions of German territory, has
eeu recognized by all to be a pure invention.
The Emperor Napoleon, in rendering justice
to the natural aspirations of Prussian policy,
has placed blmselt with respect to Germany in a
poitit of view tbe elevation of which no former
Government has ever been able to attain. This
eminently superior pohev possesses the more
importance and anient, when tbe obstacles and
prejudices of every sort arc called to mind
which the Emperor has had to overcome in
his own country before he could proclaim it.
In Prussia, the natural consequence of tbe mani
festation of such a policy is a unanimous desire
to see more and more consolidated and
btreuathened a French dynasty which, for
the first time, has known how to establish rela
tions so sympathetic with the national aspira
tion ot Germany. The reply of the Cabinet of
Berlin to the circular ot Monsieur de Laval-
lette was the expression of this sentiment of
gratitude; and,u ts precisely because the Vienna
journals do not cease to assail this Prussian
state paper with their most violent attacks, that
we believe it our dutv to declare ourselves
anew in the same sense."
If tbe Emperor is not satisfied with this in
cense of the German paper, he Is, indeed, a
ve ry difficult man to please.
The. Kingdom of Saxony.
The King of Saxony has at last returned to his
capiUl, after an absence of one hundred and
nirtj-four days. The Saxon Majesty has been
received by his loving subjects, not with enthu
slasm, but with frenzy. In default of flowers,
the considerable provision of which was too
speedily exhausted, the crowds rushed to the
meadows and hedges, and'plucked away armfuls
of green branches, to strew thorn before tbe
royal carriage as It rolled along. The members

arles of Dresden had ironc in a body to Uoden
bach to receive tbe Ktnjr. The rail way station,
11 .11 a 1 a a mm- .
iso hu iuoho wmn me King bad to pats
through, presented a mtgniSccnt apectacle.
As soon as the train oaroe ia tight, the most
impassioned aor.lamatlons were raised, mingling
with the sound of the cannon and the pealing
or the church bells. When the King and
Queen stepped from their carriage some
accident was, for a moment, apprehended,
so Intense was the eagerness ot every one to
crowd near to see their Majesties. Flowers and
bouquets literally poured upon them, and there
were transports of joy mingled with tears and
solicitations, and warm shaking or hands oa
all sides. At Dresden the enthusiasm was so
great, that one will perhaps be able to form
some idea of its magnitude when it Is know
that both banks of the river, for the length of a
quarter ot a mile, were completely crowded by
a dense mass of spectators. There was not to
be found In the Saxon capital a single carriage,
nor a steamer, nor a cab of any kind; all bad
gone to Wieder Sodlitz or tho environs of Pil
nltz. Their Majesties at last entered in good
spirits into their summer residence, where the
Council of Rpfrency was awaiting them.
Parisian Amusements.
The great theatrical success ot the day in
Paris is, undoubtedly, Ts Bons Villageois, of
Victorien Sardou, at the Gymnae. It is an in
finitely better piece than La Famille Benoilon
(the Fa-t Family), which had so long a run,
and which has become a household word in
Paris. Without being a comedy of an elevated
order, it is a spiritedly and amusingly written
play, the Interest of which does not tlag for a
moment. There is a great deal of genuine,
though pre-eminently Parisian humor in it,
and it is most admirably played. Lafont, as the
"Baron," and that clever actress, Mad'lle La
porte, are very amusing.
Arnol, tho old favorite, as the pretentious, in
terfering, ambitious apothecary, is inimitable,
and Pradcau, as the retired cit, and Lesueur as
the discontented peasant and rustio politician,
and fomenter of discord, are, also, both good in
their way.
Miscellaneous News.
The Abeille Gauohoise relates that an apple
tree in the neighborhood of Yvetot has produced
two apples which weigh more than 400 gramme
(nearly one pound) each, and measure more
than 33 centimetres in circumference.
-The Alovhnento, of Turin, relates the follow
lug curious story of how a darinjr attempt at
robbery was frustrated by a simple chance;
A lew days ago a man, bearing on his shoul
dere a long and apparently heavy box, entered
the shop ot a pork butcher, living near the rail
way station at Turin, and requested the shop,
keeper to allow him to deposit his box in his
shop lor a tew minutes. The shopkeeper con
sented to his doing so, and the man went away.
Nobody having come to reclaim the box. the.
pork butcher, when he closed his shop that nixrht
placed the box In an upright position in a corner
of the shop, and went to bed. Next day, when
the butcher entered his shop, he noticed several
drops of blood oozing out of the box which had
been left under his care. Tbe man at once went
and informed the Dolice, who accompanied him
to his borne, anJ caused the trunk to be opened,
wnen, to the astonishment of all, it was found to
contain tbe corpse ef a well-known robber. It
was then finally discovered that the robber had
hidden himself in the trunk for the purpose of
robbing the butcher during the nifrht, but the
box having, by chance, been placed so that the
man's head was downwards, congestion of the
brain was the result, and the robber had expired
without having either dared, or perhaps been
able, to call for help.
An Englibh newspaper, whilst relating the
burning of the Standard Theatre a short time
ago, in London, enumerates the number of
London theatres which have been destroyed by
fire during the last 2 years. They were: 8th
of June, 1841, Ant ley's Theatre; 4th of Novem
ber, 1846, Oar rick Theatre; then the 29th of
May, 1849, the Olympic; 27th ot July, 1853,
Islington Circus; February 13, 1856, the Pavlllion,
at Whitechapel; and on March 5th, of the same
year, the Opera House of Covent Garden; the
30th of January, 1865, the Surrey Theatre; and,
finally, tbe 21st September, 1866, tbe Standard.
Whilst on the subject of theatres, it will perhaps
be interesting to enumerate the total number of
these establishments existing in Europe. The
number amounts to 1581. France possesses 337;
Italy, including; Venetia, 346; Spain, 108; Great
Britain, 150; Austria, 150; Germany, 191; Russia
and Poland, 44; Belgium, 34; Sweden and Nor
way, 18; Denmark, 15; Portugal, 16; Turkey, 4;
Greece, 4; Roumania, 3; and Servla, 2.
The singular formality with which executions
in Spain are accompanied has just been illus
trated at Madrid. In this instance tbe criminal
was a young man named Sang, an engraver, who
had been arrested for participation in the events
of June last. Alter tbe executioner has performed
his otlice in Spain, he is surrounded by gen
darmes, loaded with chains, and taken to
prison, and theuce before an examining magis
trate, when the following dialogue takes place:
"You are uccused of having taken the life of a
man." "Yes," answers the executioner, "it is
true." "What was your motive for the crime T"
"To obey the law, and fuiai tbe mission con
fided to me by justice." An indictment is then
drawn up, and on the following day the man is
taken before the tribunal, which immediately
pionouuces an acquittal, and the prisoner is
liberated, after his. twenty-tour hours' confine
ment. Personal A large wediliner
last week at Galena, Illinois. The bride was
Miss Annie E. Campbell, daughter of Mr. B. 11.
Campbell, one of the most prominent citizens of
Galena. The bridegroom was General O. K.
Baboock, of General Grant's staff. The grooms
men were Major-General Upton of New York,
Colonel Adam Uadeau, of General Grant's staif,
A. S. Campbell, A. B. Campbell, and Lieutenant
B. 11. Campbell. The bridesmaids were Miss
Hattie Campbell and Miss Jennie Drummond.
of Chicago, Mibs Louise Jones, of Dubuque, ana
Miss Augusta Scott, of Washington. There
were some three hundred guests present, in
cluding General Washburne, E. B. Wastiburne,
Judge Drummond, General Chetlain, General
Rowley, General Duer. etc. General Grant had
promised to be present, but could not come, in
place of which he joined with his entire ataff in
the following despatch t" the happy couple:
"Io General and Mrs. Babcock We tender von
our hearty congratulations." Tne bridal glfis
were elegant and numerous.
