The cable being laid, this company propose erecting land lines and establishing a speedy and trustworthy means of communication, which must command there, as everywhere else, the communications of the govern. ment, of business, and of social life, especially in China. She has no postal system, and her or ly means now of communicating info! mation is by courier on land, and by steamers on water. Hong Kong S watow Amoy Foo.tThow... Wan Chu... Ningbo H an g-Chean Shanghai.... The Western World knows that China is a very large country, in the main densely peopled; but few yet rea lize that she contains more than a third of the Inman race. The latest returns made to her central authorities for taxing purposes, by the local magistrates, make her population Four Hundred and Fourteen Millions, and this is more likely to be under than over the actual ag eregate. Nearly all of these who are over ten years old not only can, but do read and write. Her eivilir.a lion [is peculiar, but her literature is as exten sive as that of Europe. China is a land of teachers and traders; and the latter are 'exceedingly quick to avail themselves of every proffered facility for procuring early information. It is observed In Califor nia that the Chinese make great use of the telegraph, though it there transmits messages in English alone. To. day, great numbers of fleet steamers are owned by Chi nese merchants, and used by them exclusively for the transmission of early intelligence. If the telegraph we propose, connecting all their great seaports, were now in existence, It is believed that its business would PaY its cost within the first two years of its successful operation. and would steadily Increase thereafter.
