ATLANTIC TRLEGR.APIL Tliev great questiOn of the day—we might sity-of the probably be solved In a few days. The laying down of the Atlantic cable has commenced ere this, and we shall know ,in -.another week whether: the experi- Mont be a success or failure. There are two things to be dreaded: - These are the sudden breaking of the Cable, 'whether old or new, and the ability' to transmit a complete current of electrical communica tion, 'through 2,400 miles of cable, under wa ter, the utmost length through which it yet has been passed on land, without interruption, being 1,200 miles,-or half that distance. The electrical fluid-was transmitted through 3,000 Miles - of the telegraph cable; coiled up, bat there is a doubt whether this could' be done if the, full . length were. stroiabed out, at thii bottom` of the sea. This can 'only,be aster tilded.bir actual 'experiment. Next in importance, if not quite as import ant, is the practicability of carrying the tele.' graph wire, without breaking, from shore to shore, acreas - 116) Atlantic. In the experi ments made, only the -other day, in the Bay of Biscay, the cable broke Ave times, in three dii:Ys' paying out. The strain on the cable is so very great that the iffightest check causes a snap. trio true that the septtroted, can be spliced, and that, thus rennited; they will operate efficiently. 'But itch as likely ,as not that the cable, if it should snap, may have the end drojipeCao as not to bo recovered and fished itti . or drawii up for the purpose of being spliced.'"

Governor WIRE ftilly approves the following sentiments of the Enquirer : 4.11/preiedent anCpesition, the course of this Commonwealth is definitely mapped out. She will adhere to the Colon with unfaltering loyalty. The bond of affection which binds her to the South binds her also to the North. In the re c ipro c ity of eiinsinon benefits 'and social' conneedons, she owes a duty-alike to Penndylvania and Louisiana. Neltherthe similarity of domestic institations, nor the community of Revolutionary memories, on the one part or on the ,etber, will be allowed to im pair this bond ,of equal brotherhood. Whenever 'an irreparable-wrong shall sever this bond, a just resentment against the wrong doer, a heartfelt sympathy with the Injured party, and a due re gard to.her own great moral and material ie. teresta, will determine the ultimate course of Virginia. ' Whatever new' connection she may then form, by - virtue of het position as an inde pendent State,-no party and no section can right fully tax her with the 'betrayal •of the common cause. She hue never assumed the position of a seetional• partisan. When she makes common cause with the - Worth or with the South, it is purely for the sake of justice and equality ; and the cause is always. ended whenever these ends are attained." These are manly. words, and fitly spoken. They have the true ring of independence, and in the atmosphere of Virginia they find many willing hearts , to echo them. The peOple of that Cotamenwealth instinctively honor true courage; and they never hesitate to yield their confidence to the . legislator or journal' labia. displays the virtue.• They remain true to him who boldly meets the crisis when it comes, and whenever falters on any prominent tines tion of the day. This it is which has vitalized the State -pride of Virginia,- and which has made her- Congressional delegation a unit upongreat puhlic issues. The closest attach ment between, representative and constituent is thus established, Old the voice. of the State is made 'Potential in the councils of the na tion.. It would-be well to imitate in-the Key stone State the cultivation of a like feeling. Such a policy would bring. -into Congress, from Pennsylvania, representatives who would be ever true to Pennsylvania interests, and who would cheerfully assume the responsibili ty of acting with disinterested and fearless in dependence upon all questions. CENTRAL AMERICA "Man proposes, but God disposes," says the old French proverb. The reigning Empe ror of the French and the British Ministers would do well to take this as a cud to chow about Central Anierica. On a that glance at the subject, it seems easy enough for Franco and England, wheti at peace between themselves, to control the lath 'mils over which the wealth of Heathendom must Mainly pass to the coffers -of Christen dom. They are the only great maritime Powers of Europe, and they can, therefore, at any moment, concentrate in the equatorial regions an allied fleet which our present dimi nutive navy would vainly attempt to resist. We must admit this; and we may affirm, also, that we must be mad to attempt to get up, es 'ensibly for peace, but really for war, a Power ful' marine armament, in order to solve by force the Central American question.- The Powers against which we should be thus arm ing would never wait until we were ready, and then give us battle. They would precipitate a conflict before we were ready. • Thus, in a' purely military view; Central America is not at present under our control. The Emperor of the French is essentially a military mart; and he is, probably, from that ,cause, incapable of rising above the military view of the matter. In other words, his habits and position disable him fi - om considering the manifest •'destiny of Central America, which tnueli-abnied expression we employ to convey our tense of the highest political aspect of the question. Wo think that the Almighty has at work, in our favor, influences altogether too potent for European intervention in the affairs of the Isthmus. We thee return to our text— • c Mart proposes, but God disposes." In order that a country may be profitably colonized, its native population must be capa ble of being' turned to good account as la borers, or else the colonists themselves must do the whole of , the bard work of pioneers. .In a temperate climate, Englishmen; or Frenchmen; or Americans, of our confedera .tiononay, and will readily fulfil the latter al ternative. Thb English and the French did wonders in- the way of hard work and suffer ing ait North American colonists; what•they began to do we have carried out to perfection, by our own labor or by the labor of other white men in the temperate regions of the United States. But as we approach the - tropics, we instinctively shirk toil, and are obliged to confess that the sons of Africa must raise rice and bane; and pick cotton on our account. We love the green fields of the latitude' of 40 deg., but we cannot endure the fervid sun of 80 deg. The present population of 'Central America is incatiable of ; labor, tinder freedom and under slavery alike. There is no industry, no cou rage, no, knowledge—in fine, no element of prosperity in the mongrel race that now in. habits teat most important territory. The de bilitating climate has reduced the whites to a lower level than Is possible, oven for Span ; lards, elsewhere. They mean' to live on the spontaneity of nature. As for the residue of the population, its taint of idleness is also in curable. • Neither Great Britain nor France has a sur plus population of African race with which to colonize Central America. We have such a surplus; and that simples is accumulating an nually on our bands, not only by natural in crease of the race, but by decrease of the area iPtin Which Its labor can be advantageously employed. Some persons may be surprised by an affirmation that the area of productive slave-labor in the United States Is not increas ing as rapidly as the African race increases.' It is nevertheless so ; although a fictitious and unnatural price • of cotton and anger during several • years may have inflated the price of slaves, and so have created a contrary popu let: impression. That inflation is in the course of - subsidence now, and all men will soon per ceive that there is ,a redundant afar° popula tion in these 'United States—that the difficulty is not to get African labor; but to employ it to profit within our present territory—and that We therefore, have within ourselves the means orcolOnizlng profitably Central Ame rica, of which - the United States may tie the head, whilst Afriban labor may he the hand.

Ifigh ground was taken to show that the English Govern ment was resolved to adhere to that right, and that, at all hazards, they should be compelled to abandon it. Our valuable correspondent It Occasional," in his letter of Tuesday, ex posed this attempt as-a,design to disturb the friendly. relations between this country and England, and this, too, in view of the auspi cious news by the last steamer, while instating that the right of search should bo given np at once and forever. " Occasional" showed that It was a, piece.of mere partisan madness to at tempt to arouse the war spirit in the face of tho late amicable and earnest declarations of the English government. The.,Yirashington correspondent of the Philadelphia North .Rme rican," Independent," does ample justice in his letter of, Tuesday to the part which the Admi nistration has taken in these transactions : Since Lord glatmesbury has gone so far, the time is auspicious for a formal declaration, by which our future intercourse will be saved from the recurrence of this irritating issue, which has always involved to a greater or lees extent a point of honor on both sides—the point most perilous between-brave and powerful nations. Nor should the occasion be allowed to. pass, whatever dif ferences of political opinion may exist, without a just and becoming tribute to the able, resolute, and patriotic course of Gen. Case. If there be one clues. lion more than another, to which he has especially contributed the efforts, the seal. the investigation, and the unswerving purpose of the last twenty-Ore years of his public' career, seconded by all the in fluence of his commanding character at home and abroad,lthas been this right ofsearoh. Indeed,it bad come to be considered in some degree as his pecu liar province or specialty. And when his instruc tions to Mr. Dallas come to be scanned by the im partial judgment of men disembarrassed by all party ties, it will be seen how much the country is indebted to him for a settlement, which at once relieves our diplomatic relations of their most vex atious and threatening aspect. It is gratifying to me, as a political opponent, to have the opportu nity of expressing these sentiments, and the wore °vernally so, since there are some [Mitoses in the diplomacy of , the Administration which required another sort of criticism at my hands. This is a great triumph in every sense, and nothing but the most narrow and bigoted partisanship can deny those who have achieved it the high credit which they are entitled to claim from a generous publio BY MIDNIGHT MAIL LETTER FROM d , OCCASIONAL.” fOorreopoodence of The Press 1 Weenylaroff, June 24, 1818 Decidedly the aspect of the future is gloomy. The Kansas affair has not united the South in favor of the -Administration.' It has given new life to the Americana; it has exalted deep indigna tion in the Demooratio ranks in the South, - on account of the proscription it has given rise to; it has not destroyed Wise, and it has divided the Democrats in Maryland and in Delaware. In North Carolina D. K. Mcßae, a Democrat, is making a stump canvass for Governor, and is de. pouncing Becompton ; in Tennessee F. P. Stanton was warmly welcomed and praised for his hostility, to Lecompton, while in Louisiana the bitteiest strife is brewing bptween rival factions.

A good opportunity is afforded to breathe our pure air and enjoy our lovely scenery. On this occasion Easton becomes lively; our fair daughters show themselves still more fair; our ever sociable and hospitable citizens make themselves more sociable, and entertain strangers unusually well. The college is mhphatioally a Pennsylvania college, 'and should receive the patronage of Phi. ladelphia. On Sunday morning, July the 25th, an address to the senior class by the president; Sun. day evening,. address before the Brainerd Soci ety, by the Rev. Dr. Murray; Monday evening, junior exhibition; 'Nasdaq morning, address be fore the alumni ; Tuesday evening, oration before the literary societies, by Professor Nairne, of New York, (formerly of Edinburgh); Wednesday mor ning, the regular commencement exercises of the graduating class. Easton is dull at the present time.. Boma few strangers make a flying call here as they throng up the Delaware, Water (lap, Bethlehem, and Mauch Chunk Yours, • X.

They ought to have a great success—which means, a series of successes. Lastly, the Keller Troupe are exhibit ing, at - Aroh•sitreet Theatre.

The same committee, to whom had been referred the granting the privilege to the Citizens' Passen ger Railway of laying rails along Columbia ave nue, between Tenth and Elevent h streets, report ed - a regolution granting the privilege, which .was agreed to. The'Committee on Police, to whom was referred certain police appointments, reported in favor of confirming Said , nominations, and they were con firmed accordingly. . Mr. Methane offered a resolution that when Councils adjourn, it be to take a recess of four weeks. Mr. Noel hoped not. Ile desired that the eon testing of Seats should be proceeded with, as the committee - were not yet ready to report; and, in ,addition to this, Councils, have to enter into an election of commissioners. He was willing to have a recess, but not at the present time. Several members urged that the mess be adopted. - Mr. Common said that by no means should a recess be taken until the new heads of departments are elected. Mr. Cuyler. - And pray why, may I ask for in formation, should this matter be hurried at once? Mr. Cornman replied at some length, reflecting on the Commissioner of Highways. Mr. Cuyler defended the Highway Commis aioner as ono whom he considered the moat honest of all the heads of departments. " Mr. Common again replied, urging the election of new heads of departments. Mr. Cuyler replied in justification of tho parties impugned. Ho was followed by Mr. Nathans (dem.) in the siiine tone The question upon the original resolution was then taken. and an adjournment for four weeks was agreed to—yeas 12, nays 11. The Chamber then retired le meet in convention with the opposite Chamber, to unite in electing police magistrates. ,Upon returning, the President announced the pro-determined result. Mr. Cxyler offered a resolution that Select Coun oil meet Common Council on July 29, at their stated mooting,.in order to Aeleot heads of depart ments._ Mr. Leidy moved to lay upon the table, which was lost. Mr. Common maid ho was happy to see the gen tleman from the Eighth (Mr Ouyler) returning even to a partial sense of propriety. The aotion of the Chamber, in thus adjourning for four weeks, was a violation of the law governing the Cham ber. It has been passed by a bare majority of one, and for the sole purpose of giving the heads of the departments' at additional period of four weeks to plunder and rob the 'city. A motion wee made to postpone, but was lost by a vote of 12 to it The original motion was then carried.- The ordinance from Common Council, authori zing a temporary lean, not exceeding $400,000, at ninety days, was taken up, on motion of Mr. Neal. The ordinance was adopted. A message was then received from Common stating that they had non•oonourred in the resolution to moot Councils In convention on July 29th, 1858. The_ordinance from Common Council to make an appropriation to pay the interest on the debt of the city falling due on the lot of July, 1858, was concurred in. Mr: Rivey said he was a meuitier of the Finance Committee, but was not satisfied with this claim, and could see no . reason why Mu Vandyke .should not indemnify the city against. aiay further claims on this Recount. • Mr. Hacker said-the claimants were indifferent about the passage of this ordinance to-dav, as they were satisfied that they could recover the whole amount ' The amendment offered by Mr. Handy was agreed to by a vote of 49 to 29. - Mr iteliy moved to indefinitely postpone the subject, and that the Solicitor take such aotion-as he thinks appropriate. Not agreed to. The ordinance then parsed a final reading. A message was received from - Maier:Henry.. stating that he had signed certain resolutions and ordinances. Also, a message givini, an interesting statistical statement of the condition of the Police , Depart meat. Mr. Hutchinson, oT the Committee on Survey. submitted a resolution that it-was inexpedient to erect any bridge over the Schuylkill at any other point except at Chestnut street. Agreed to.

Agreed to. Mr. Manderfield submitted a resolution direct. ing the Chief Engineer of the Watering-Depart ment to report the canes of a deficiency of 'water for the citizens residing south of-South street, and east of Fasayunk road. Mr. Miller moved to amend to add the Fifteenth ward. Mr. Wetberill moved to refer the whole subject to the anunritt ea on Water. . - Mr. Ballot* submitted a resolution diraoting The Commissioner of Highways to cease paving York street from Cedar street to Gunner's run, in the Nineteenth ward, until the water pipes are laid. Agreed to. Mr. Cooper submitted a resolution that the Com, missioner of Highways inquire into the expediency of having all the lamps lighted at. all hours during the night.

Edwin. Cia k, No. 285 Race street, a few days ago. In palish:lg the entrance, and teeing the wheels In noiseless operation within—having previously heard, from private Unreel!, Of 'the superior Morita of this lately invented to gratify our eeriest -1.3; by Making - is.;pkteonal summation; and through the marked courtesy extended to en inquisitive stranger by Mr Edwin 'Clark, the patentee arid proprie tor, we are en - shied to speak advisedly with reference to capacities of his loireotioq. The plain. prectical construction of the mill, renders Ito rhOrOirgh understandirig easy, even to 'the inexpe rienced. To illustrate the Wunpactness of a piece of machinery of ouch extraordinary opacity, we may state that the mill complete, occupies a space only four feet wide, eight feet high, and twenty-nine feat in length, and that'll manufacturer within this coreract ed space, at a single operation; family extra, extra, superfine, end all the tower grades of flour and offal. Of the dour promo d, we are warranted In saying that it is 'equal to the beat brands: we hare ever examined. - A very practical, and, as it imams to ui, important doisideration attached to this mill, is, that there are Many establishments in this city and throughout the country ritsseesing a more than reuals'to amount of steam or- water-power for their present operations, which, from the very limited space occupied by one of these mills, 'could, by introducing ono or more of them, be made highly remunmatlve. We throw this out as a suggestion, feeling assured that it can be turned to profitable acc.nitt; and should Mr. Edwin Clark Rod an accelerated sale of 'his noble patent on the strength of what we have laid, he need not be surprised. We ate authorized to state, that to accommodate parch*. sera, the tinire ate made of different diameters, varying from twenty-four Inches to four feet. One of these =lS="=l ter, and requiring but little more than eig-horse steam power to propel, will manufacture, on as average, two barrels of the very best flour per hour. producing a barrel of flour from four bushels gad ten parade of wheat. With regard to'the main peculiarities of thli inven tion, we may atate, for the information of practical mil. lore, that instead of raking and toweling the spindle, and the burr connected with it, se has always hereto fore - been done, the burro In this mill are adjusted by raising and lowering the upper one, although the lower burr , to -the revolving one. In thus raising and lowering the ripple burr, it freely balances by its . • own gravity, so than its face is always perfectly paral lel with the face of the lower burr; and as the rime of the burrs are - kept thus exactly parallel with each oilier, the burrs will produce Mine of a perfectly even texture, with greater rapidity and with less power. Besides DMA adjustable feature, the upper atone' has an automatic or self-adjusting property which is of great !advantage, as every one will clearly understand irho will examine for him self, which all are at perfect liberty to do at all home of the day, from seven in the morning to six in the evening. The conveniently-portable character of thin mill, and its ease of erection, are in themselves items amounting to a consideration of thousands of dollars where mills are to be erected, especially at a distance from the city. Nor to Ito simplicity of con. woe:icor—being thereby freed from liability to get out of order—a less important item in its favor. In ad dition to them general writs, there are numerous others, which the already protracted length of this article deters ne from referring to at present. There le one fact, however, which having been to us mi lady demonstrated, and which, it seems-to um, speaks volumes in favor of its completeness, we cannot help mentioning. Bye Moat ingenious arrangement cry portion of the ground material may be reconductel to the eye of the mill-burr, and reground with the wheat ; or, if the miller desires it ) can be retained and rebutted with out grinding any portion of it; or it can be rejected altogether, or any portion'of it 7 .all of which Is elected by the operation of a single elide, so accurately ad. . _ . jwited that these seenral changes may be effected at Intervals of map-sixteenth part of an inch, if dented. In coOrmatlon of the praise we have awarded to tide improved patent merchant milt of Mr. Edwin Clark, We were shown a certidaste setting forth the su perior qualities of the Invention, in terms which were to tos entirely satisfactory, signed as they were by Tory many of the best khown and lareetresperienceil practical Millers in this State. Upon the whole; we hare every reseon to believe that the mill here referred to le one of the most important improvements in milling machinery that have been brought out within the preeent century, and its early introduction into all parte of thin country and Europe may, we think, be confidently expected by Its fortunate proprietor. In the meantime we would ware the reader, in dis missing thei subject, that he will be amply repaid in following our example, and . making a personal exami nation of the admirable article we have deemed it pro= per to thus highly recommend COOL .LND GRACEFUL.—There is something pe cutierly pleasing. in the letter of these Wins at all times, but now, when thermometers need to be ice. watered to keep from jumping up to fever heat, any thing that embodies the element of coolness"—even though it be to the form of original impudence—is more or less. refreshing.
