Twice, at least, is day,, ' th* are despatcheU from London, pnlya few hours old, printed in 'Philadelphia and in every part,of the United States.-. Even the people of San Francisco can receive news that. has, only, left London, pr,the most remote points of Eastern Europe, on the day they read it. This thh3g, if foretold a few years ago, would have read tike . one Ilifthaft , ibles of the Arabian Night's. now an every-day, common place fact. The Americans, who went nearly crazy over thelitying of the first cable, have settled down to regard it as one of the practical things that ,ought to have been ac complished hundreds-of years ago. Happily, the Atlantic telegraph is perform ing its work -so well, that public confidence in it is fully established. How have we'done without it so long?'What should we do witilont, it now ?, These are questions that arise When the subject is seriously thought o 4 and those who Use the cables most frequently, and, through; its agency, daily transact portant kliancial and counnercral operations, must tremble when they think that a few threads of copper' - wire, between 2,000 and and:,3,000 miles long, armed with only a' thin coating of gutta-percha and * metal, and strethhed ,4:a14 the unknown , , depths of ocean„ compose the agent through which:, all , :this intercontinental commu nication is'Carried oh. Why the American and Eiimpean' werlds should rest content with these two cables and not . manufacture. and stretch across a cozen er two more, is , incomprehensible. The, heavy expense is only at first., After it is fairly laid, an ocean telegraph is the cheapest of all. It re quires no sub.-stationt3; it depends on 110 poles that are liable to be blown down; it is safe from the' work of evil-minded mischief makers; it never needs watchfulness or repair, except at its two termini. A few operators at Wends and Heart's Content must be Veld their salaries. All the rest of the re ceipts may -be Used in paying debts for 'construction, or Fin dividends, Or in laying up a surplus for new cables, or for rare, con tingenclea such as the ice-berg damage of last season: The Ocean proves to be a better guard of a telegraph line their the most exten sive and expensive police arrangements on land. Before this century is finished there • will pioliably he scores of cables connecting the Eastern and the Western worlds. The wonderis that theroare not. now new com panies organizing on-both continents forthelr construction. - Tho'cillettay of the Atlantic cables was 1.1- 2testiatett last Saturday night in London, at the Romp - Polytechnic Society's Banquet. The Duke of, Wellington, on behalf of the Direct Ora and guests, sent a complimentary message to the President of the United Stites, to transmit which fiend' LOndon to Wash ington. occupied only nine Minutes and thirty seconds. The reply orate Prolldent was re ceited while the company were Still at the table, the trantnniablentrequiring twenty-mine minntea. Ott the same evening air -atunver was received floin Ilearfe Content at the Poly technic, hi ten minutes from the time Vie . message was sent. These are illustrations of. the working of the cables which tell 'upon the public mind. A handscime little semi- ` ' monthly paper called the Journal of the Tel published in New York by Mr. James D. ileid, gives some other information concerning it. The two cables, it states, work well with a capacity , of sixteen words per minute each. The first tariff was $lOO in gold for ten words, and of -course' the messages were few and the receipts moderate. Aftewards it was reduced to $5O for twenty words, including address, date and signature. The cash receipts at once in creased 40 per cent. Again the tariff has been reduced to $25 for ten words and the right to send five free words of address, date and signature. This at once increased the number of persons using the wires 300 per cent. above those under the first tariff, and increased the cash receipts 120 per cent. All these facts are interesting as proving that the profits of the cables increase as the - tariff that is reduced. The laying of a dozen or more cables would create a competition that would cause still greater reductions, and yet all could be Worked prdfitably. There are always tinniest& of people in Europe and in America who weuld gladly communicate daily by tele-- grapicil. the_ expense were moderate: For commercial and social convenience more cables are needed, But there are political morons still stronger. At present all des plittglies meet pass through 'British ter et; , and' ' under British s espionage, at filth end •' of the line. Even in ny..thnenf peace this is not agreeable.

Potrto Suits; But neither party has been idle in the meantime. The defendants seepi to be thor- Oughly aware ctcf the weakness and illegality , of their position, and efforts have been made to modify the . shape of the scheme so as to get within the shadow of the law. A plan to operate under the' charter 'of the defundt International Art Union has been submitted toithe Attorney-General, and most effectually quashed by that officer, who has clearly pointed out the illegality of this ruse and refused- to entertain- any such proposition. 111 r. Brewster has, from the first, taken posi tive grounds as to the illegality' ofthe whole scheme and the irregularity of its organization, and the only delays in Suppressing this sur reptitious attempt' to legalize lotteries in Pennsylvania have arisen from the unavoid able necessities of the law. The opinion given by - the Attorney-General at the request or the' counsel for the Gettysburg Akyfurs, upon the proposition to convert the original scheme into a Cosmopolitan Art Union, in volves a very , interesting point upon the sub ject of art, a nice, but very clekr, distinction being - laid (Town between what are to be con sidered specimens of art arid what are mere articles of the . jeweler's or print-seller's trade. The opinion will befound in another column. It is a subject of public gratulation that the sentiment of the community has so strongly declared itself against this attempt to revive the pernicious policy of legalized lotteries, and that there was an officer at the head of the law department of the State, -ready and able to defend the laws against the proposed evasion of their obvious inhibt. The ease wilt bs disposed of at the approaching term of the Supreme' Court, and there can'be no doubt that the whole plan of proceedings of this Gettysburg Asylum scheme will be effectually arrested, and the corporators com pelled either to proceed under the strict pro visions of the law, or to abandon their de ; designs altogether. After the storm the calm, after the fever re-action and proitration, and after the battle the gathering in .of the wounded, and the clearing the field of the wreck and ruin of the conflict. The day after Christmas, is one of those mildly melancholy occasions when the storm, the fever and the fights (with mast turkey and mince ,ple) have subsided, and when calm reflection comes, with a propen sity to yawn and ageneral indifference to the ordinary concerns of life. There is scarcely a youngster in town whip did not oversleep himself this morning, and it would have re quired a greater stimulus than even a well filled stocking to have 'made him imitate the lark and turn out for a fresh bout with sugar plains. Mater Fami lias looked draggled and worn, and it, would have been a perfect !Spartan of &nal/gross o f a household who; amidst the confusion of the Christmas wreck, could have made any . I vigorous efforts to' avoid acting the part of the gaping lady in Hograrth'e —"Marriage a4a,pzode." Fathers 'lnd husbands , went down town with a general Impression that business was a bore, and the condition of the stock and cotton markets, and, the price " of , gold, scarcely excited any emotion in the, *taiga of those who are usually as"qtfick as a steel-trap" to scent a bargain or make nspeCu lation. Even the ordinarily irrepressible boys were repressed, and tin 'horns and painted masks failed, to excite, any active emotions or earnest denonstrations. Christmas trees, that;ardthe_leavings of an overstocked mar= ket of evergreensi litter some of the streets, ante, modern MaCdulf might find among this wreck of verdure enough material, to fit out an army with Blatant wood decoritiozna and leafy disguises. But notwithstanding this material dilapidation and demoralization, there are Christmas influences that will not go to wreck, and there are memories that will not pall upon the sense. There will be tender recollections of pleasant family gather ings, of kind words and deeds, of friendly greetingsland ofgenerons hospitalities, that will stock many a heart brim-full, and prove a legacy of precious remembrances .tvhen time has wrought the changes that will coin° as inevitably as the sunshine or the storm. Christmas has come and gone.

The capacity of his present,' edifice is 500,000 (five hundred thousand) pi:daub of soap per month, the regular demand for it baying already attained' the enormous sum Of 200,000 (two hun dred thousand) pounds per month,..

The routine of oPethtions observed in. this es tablishment, frcini the point where all 'the mate ' rials are received; through tho various ingenious processes, until-the completed article is ready for shipment, are exeeedingly interesting, and prove that the inventor and manufacturer, Mr. Dobbins (who, by the way, superintends in per son the operations of his entire establishment, even to the minutest details), is singularly quali fied to conduct so Vast, and in a measure , myste rious, an enterprise. The secret upoirwhich his great invention rests, while it is worth' thousands to him; 18 worth 'millions •t 9 the world, a fact which bids lair at no distant day to render the production of his article one of, if not the largest item of American manufactures.: Without Without consulting Mr. Dobbins, we will here take the liberty of exposing what we , deem a chief secret , fpf his wonderfulsnecess. Hitherto it has been the policy and aim of soap mauufae- turers to aseertain how cheaply it was possible to produce,sliimp of soap of a given sizei . Mr. Dobbins set out with a determination to demon staple how much washing properly could be put Into a piece of soap of 'rho :same size., The re sult, as we aio forced to admit front opt: own knowledge, has been marvellous. From Maine to Mexico the high claims that .are made for Dobbins' Electric. Sciap inn:gratefully acknow ledged in thousands of families and hundredirof public institutions. ' No better' evidende could be given that this great success will be permanent and , progressive than the faCt that - Mr. Dobbins is, `and' intwas to continue. personally the Sole manufacturer of the article: • • , One singularfact in the history of this soap is that from the commencement die Increased de nomad for it hits , been steak , and.grailnal., No one month during the whole period has fallen behind the weeding month, and in some instances the monthly increase . has been 'astonishingly large. In September of this year the demand. in this city alone weeded, by 10,000:Aten:' thousand) pounds that of anyprovious month inks hit:tory; and, with the present . enlarged facilities, for its manufacture, and the great name the soapis ac-• gulling Wherever it ki introduced, cannot' fail to render the ratio of, increase . .even',greater than this throughout the coontiy it large. As adtdation always follows success, we may - mention in passing that Mr.,Dobbins is now the subject of general congratulation, some of his former critics even going so far as to rate him a "prophet"—on these grounds : Some months Wore - Mr D. erected his 'present • edifice, his large delivery wagon had painted upon its aides the picture of an immense 'manufactory. This was yet while heWras operating.ln a compara tively small btililding down town. Those who knew the Lehi laughingly remarked, "That was a cheap M ode of, building , big factories." ,Now that his new •afritctire ',not only equals the pictorial representation on his wagon, but greatly- excels nuignitade ,and appear ance; theitelteciWing' once give'Mr: . D. credit for having simply, in a modest way, discounted the future. • Our :own judgment, however, is, that Mr. Dobbins luta some ambition of being among theproftsf.MV,not? With the facilities now possessed by Mr. Odbbins and hie practical ingenuity, we ar,e - not, emprised to learn that he contemplates shortly bringing out a new article —Blackbig'for BootaLthat tO create as profound a ise m uttimas his Electric Soap. It cer tainly will; if what le claimed kir "it be realized.

(We haVe good authOilty for stating that this invaluable new ar tide will speedily : be given to the public, In fact,, , its not having been already introduced is solely due to the , proprietor's other engagements, inci dent to his' intniNar fo hut new building.' • An announcement will accompany the forth coming prude, that "jitiy cents' worth cf bkoqratitoi7oave one dollar's worth of Loots." As an investment, therefore, Mr. Dobbins'new issue will be better than. Governments, with principal and interest payalle in gold!

"23d,. , :1867 .— This village and community are enehrouded in a mantle of gloom by one of the most horrifying -tragedies hnown'in the annals of crime, by the death of Hon. Corneille/ B. Hamilton member of Congress Mini th e Eighth Convene/Quid Dis trict of Ohio; by the hand aids eldest eon,Ttios. C.Hirnalitoki, a youth of aboutlB. The Attain abort are about , as follows: The son Thomas waster', sidered and was a remarkably good and steady boy. , About weeks eeke ago he, became uneasy about' himself, and, wished hie Eathe'r to come honie. • The mother also being concerned about him, wrote Idr. Hamilton to come home. lie came home, and on Saturday laat instituted pro-' ceedings in the Probate Court to send the boy to the Inaane Asylum, but did not the papers in time to tend him on Saturday. Sunday ' morning, at about 9 o'clock, Mr. Hamilton said to his ' two oldest boys, Thomas and John, that they would go out and "`feed." The three went out, the father carr y ing some born-fodder, a distance of ten or fifteen y , and throwing it over in the barn lot, the younger (John) going elver and distributingit to the stock us the father `directed. Mr. Hamilton then bade John go and prepare for Sunday-school. He did so, /caving' the father and Thomas picking up and scattering corn and stocks. He lestalles that he looked back when part way to the house, and that Thomas was watching him. He had got to the house and partly prepared to go to Sun day-school, when the mother went out on the porch and saw Thomas coining to, the house lone. She inquired where was father? He picked up an axe and made for the mother. John, Beeler this demonstration, screamed, and diverted Thomas frona the mother to himielf. He ran into the houae, first into - the dinlng-room, then to the hall, then into the sitting-room. Here Thomas came, upon him. John run past him, and slipped and fell about the time he ' reached the door,Thomas maltimg a blow at bim, whelh took effect in the left shoulder and partially stunned him, but he crawled out of the house. Thomas then made pursuit of the mother, who fled across the street to Mr. John Guthrie's, a distance of about two hundred yards. Here, he was met by Mr. Guthrie's fann and Mr. Y. Wood, Superintend ent of the Pub lic Schools of this place, • who bid him putdown the axe—he carrying It it: an ele vated and menacing attitude, lie assumed a --more threatening manner, and made at Mr. Wood, who retreated into the house. Thomas followed to the door with the uplifted axe. , lie then returned to the street, where he was met by M. C. Lawrence, Esq., who inquired of him, "Where is your father?" suspecting foul play. He, with the uplifted axe, then made for Mr. L., who retreated down and across the street, Thomas following. Thomas then crossed over the farm, and making in the direction of the wounded boy, who had gone back to the house and carried two small sisters a distance . of one hundred yards or more, and was calling to Mr. J. C. Botkin, 'who had been attracted by the cry of distress, "Save my two little els tent." Me._Botkin reached the two sisters and took them up, but Thomas was coming in and cut oil his retreat, so he took them back to where they were by a woodpile. Taking a stick of wood, which to him , seemed too unwieldy, he dropped it as Thomas was coming.on him with the uplifted axe clenched in both halide. Botkin, with great presence of Mind,seized the only alter native left him by jumping into him head first, etriklnghlm in the breast while his arms were up lffted,to fell him. Thus he was captured. Search was now made for the father, and the sequel allows that at the very place where John left them—which is about thirty or forty yards from the hone—Thomas had killed his father and covered the body with corn-fodder. It ap pears that he had felled him with a heavy piece of two-Inch board, striking him from behlna, and .fracturing the right poetenor of the skull. The left postirior was also fractured, or better de ecribed by being, mashed in. The heart sickens to describe and contemplate how one , highly respected by all, and loved by many, was so sud denly and tragically removed from us. The Hideous. Child fillurder at Canaan • -Further Particulars. The Hudson Star has the following further information relative to the supposed murder of the child whose life had been insured for $5,000. Deteetive Jame 11. Kelley, - of Albany, brought the husband of Mrs. Brown to this city this mornipg on the 7.24 train, and lodged him in jail. We Paid the prisoner a visit, anll found him very reticent. He is a Frencluhan, about five feet six or seven inches high, and, has a sneaking look, - which hapresseit on e with notion that he is capable of just such a deed as he is accused of committing. We visited Mrs. Brown next, and found her directly the opposite of her liege lord, being ready 'and willing to converse, and possessing double ,his intelligence . She in formed us that a ft er thd alleged murder she went from Canaan to West GranDY, Conn.; and thence -to Hartford, where she and her husband were arrested. An examination was held there, (Ind she denied to us having made a confession im plicating her husband as the murderer of the lit tle glrl. "I , would, not answer any question," said she, "that was asked me at timt, bat finally I told about matters relating to our domestic af fairs—where we came from, &s. Sidney Cole, of Hartford, brought me to Albany, and - I did not know that my husband was ,on the train,, although , he was." In answer to a.:.question as to the , ' marks of vio lence said to have been found upon the body of the girl, Mrs. Brown said: "I'd like to know how they could tell anything about that; Kearney, traveling agent of the Hartford Life Insurance Company, examined the body and ho said that the head of Angeline (the dead child) was burned to a 'crisp, the eyes burned out, and the flesh on her legs and arms literally dropped or from her bories.
