The SHbiiutrine Telegraph.
Two gentleman of Philadelphia have tent a
mpmonal lo Congres, pnunu lor an appropria
tion to undertake a telegraphic communication a
cross the Atlantic to Lngland. The idea haa been
suggested by the auccenful experiments that
have been made in the French and Irish chan
nels, in (ho effort lo unite Fiance and Ire
bad with Lnglatid. The scheme itriket us at
first as visionary, but in this age of wonderful im
provement and startling progresn, we are almost
prepared for anything. The magnetic telegraph
itself almost defied human conception, and yet we
see it every day in operation and it has almost
ceased to he a marvel.
The memorial sets forth that from experiments
that have been made, there is reason to believe
that there is a aiihiiiarme table land extending
from the hunks ot the Newfoundland to the mouth
of the Briliuli channel. The distance is about
hono at:iiite miles, audit is proposed to anchor
buoy at the intervening distance of five mile.
To these bunyt the tele,iaphic wire about three
fouilii of an inch in diameler, carelully covered
with putta jr n-lia, is to he a'tai'hed. The win
is to l-e Mink so deep as to be out of reach of an
chafing from vessels or other objec ts, and lo be
supported if necci.arv, hy cork finals. The an
chored buoy) would, it is said, keep the line ol
communication in i's place.
It is a In I.I and mighty proj. ct, but wf) are pie
pand tnsee the undei l.ikiin; achieved by thu force
of modern enterpricc nod science.

On the 31 of January, A. J). 151s.
this disgraceful amendment passed by a vote of
S'J to 61, It was in these words, "in a war (al.
biding to the Mexican War) unnecessarily ami
uiiconstitutioiiidiy commenced hy the President
of Ihe l'nited States." This record would ever
he a stain upon the integrity of the nation and
blur the lustre of our arm'. It would, moreover,
reflect little credit upon our ti.tr i. mil legislature,
who, on the 11th of May, Is ii, declared in tin.
House by a vote of 174 to 1 I, and in the Senate
by a vote f -10 Id 2, that this "war exists by the
act of Ihe lie public of Mexico." Ho.v ;hen can
