in iiumc cabix~.it* effectb up n bp pxzm. The country mint tie ketooUhed at the retulu which tbs Atlantic cable has pro duced in the earliest days of its existence People were dispoeed to doubt it* efficacy in transmitting news from the other side of the world with as much accuracy as has characterized the report of the speech delivered by the King of Prussia in Ber lin on Monday, and published verbatim in ourcolomnson Thursday. Tbe success* of tbe cable was deemed equivocal, the permanency of its continuity is, perhaps, •till doubtful, and can only be decided by tima; but one thing ia certaie-rlhatit hat been the medium of bringing us very important newt, for which, we may add, tb* public ia indebted to the enterprise of the Herald; for our special correspondents in Fttrope collected the news in Berlin, St. Peterhurg, Peeth, London, and various other points, and forwarded it over the ca ble. But for this the public would have bad very little news or importance by the cable. Some of tbe small-fry newspapers endeavored to turn the thing into ridicule, but it occurs to us that there i* nothing to to be scoffed at in the Atlantic cable, but rather something to be applauded as an effort of science, skill, enterprise end ge nius. Por instance, tb* sews which wc were enabled to lay before our readers on Thursday, could not have been obtained for two weeks by the ordinary channel*. These despatches from Berlin and other points of the continent were furnished to the American public at a cost of $7,000 in our currency. For tbis foot tbe public are indebted to the Herald, and were it not for the inoompetenoy of the Executive Committee of the Associated Press we would be able to furnish European news much earlier. The success of the cable to far has been oonpltU. Tbe electricians have been able to transmit messages at the rate of eleven word* per minute with moderately light bwtt«de*,Md that is mere than expected. It is true that the cable may not last for a .very Jong time. The abrasion at tbe bot tom of the ocean may wear it out, and it will probably become necessary to renew it every year; but there will doubtless be other iioerlaid across tbe Atlantic iu addi tion to the old cable, which ie about to be raised and reconstructed. We may expect to find cablelaying henceforth a regular . ** J. There can be no doubt that the telegraph, ic communication with Europe will rev* oiutiooize tbe newspaper business on both continents. It will tend to produce a epo dansation of style ip newspaper articles. Already we obsevo, since tb* telegraph ha* been eeublished throughout Europe, a ter seoee* is the writings of ths English jour sal* which forms a strong contrast to the former long-winded M*ie of the magazine school, which rendered the leading arti cle* almost unendurable. The telegraph will bring us beck to tbatsuooinot, simple and condensed method of expressing our idea* which prevailed in ancient times. The early reoords of Greece, Egypt apd Palestine, out of whiuh anoieut history was made were nothing were than tele graphic notioes, from which subsequent author* wore the web of authentic history. The Hebrew language was orignally writ ton without vowel*, like tome systems of our modern stenography. At a subsequent period the vowel points were introduced to facilitate interpretation. It is evident that the extension of tbe telegraph system wilt have a very marked effect upon the intel lectual habit* of the world at large. The telegraph teaches us that the days of tbe elaborate ten-column article* and three volume books hare gone by. Condensa tion of words to express thought will pre vail. In abort, we should not be surprised if by telegraphic agency we returned to the ancient, simple style of Homer, Mo ses and the Prophets—a consummation for which we shall be exceedingly thank ful.—Arte York World.

Walts* Socrr’a Advice to iiih Son Chamjcu.— U l cannot too much impress upon your mind that labor is the condi tion-which Ged baa imposed on u* in eve ry station in life. There is nothing worth having that can be bad without it, from the bread which the peasant wins with the sweat of his brow, to the sports by which tbe rich man must get rid of his ennui. Tbe only difference betwixt them is, that the poor man labors to get a din ner to his appetite; the rich man to get an appetite to his dinner. At for knowl edge, it can no more be planted in the hu man mind, without labor, than a field of wheat can be produced without the pre vious use of the plough. “There ia, indeed, this great difference, that chance or quroumstanocs may so cause it that another shall reap whst the farmer sows; but no man can be deprived, whether by accident or misfortune, of the fruits of bis own studies, and tbe liberal and extended acquisitions of knowledge which be makes, all lor bis own use. La bor, my dear boy, therefore, and improve the time. In youth owr steps are light and our minds are ductile, and kuoweldge is easily laid up. But, if we neglect our Spring our Summers will be useless and contemptible, our,harvest will be chaff, and the Whiter of old age unrespected aud desolate.” Again : “Raad, my dear Charles, read; and read that which is useful. Man differs from birds aud beasts only because he has. the means of availing himself of the knowledge acquired by his predecessors. Tbe swallow builds tbe same nest which its father and molhtr built; and the spar row does not improve by the experience of iU parents. The son of the learned pig, it it bad one, would be a mere brute, only fit to make bacon of. It is not so with the human race. Our ancestors lodged iu vaves and wigwams, where we construct palaces for tbe rich and comfortable dwell ings for tbe poor; and why ia this bnt be cause our eye It enabled to look back upon the past, to improve upon our ancestor’s improvements, and to avoid their errors f This cau only be done by rtudyrng histo ry, and compare it with passing events.” A NEW CURE TOR CHOLERA. A correspondent of tbe Cincinnati Com mercial, writing from London, seder date of duly ttb, thus speak* of anew remedy for cholera: Great-interest is just now felt in the •uccesafiii cure of cholera by Dr. Rubini, of Naples Camphor, as a care for chol era, has long been used by both schools of medicine, and Dr. Rubini’s innovation con sists in the mode of preparing the remedy. The essential facU of tbe case I will now state as they have been reported here by an English gentleman: Dr. Rubini’a preparation consists of equal part*, by weight, of camphor and spirits, and to tbs power tbns obtained be attributes i>i* success ia tbe treatment of the disease. And bare I may say that the quantity of camphor which water will take up ia email. To obtain, therefore, tbe “aaturated spirits of camphor of Uubiui" it is necessary to distill spiiiU of w ioe, and get rid of so much of iu water a* will bring it (o 60 degrees overproof, in which condition it will dissolve and hold in solu tion it* own weight in camphor. With tliis “saturated spirits of camphor,” Dr. Rubini, an eminent Neapolitan physi cian, has treated in Naples 592 oases ol Asiatic cholera without tbe lost of a single patient. Os these 592 cases, 200 were cured in the Royal almshouse, 11 in the Royal poorhonse, 166 in the third Swiss regiment of Wolf. That the 377 cases treated by Dr. Rubini in these public insti tutions were all genuine cases of Asiatic dicier*, and some “terribly severe," snd that all recovered, (he evidence of the fol lowing distinguished individuals, with their official seals attached, sufficiently attests: 11. Generate Govtrna'.ore Iticci; 11. Maggiore Commandante Nicola Forni; 11. Cspitano Commandants Carlo Sodero; General# Commandante Fileppo Rneci Colonel Eduordo Wolff. The method o cure is at follows,: “When a man u seixsd with the chole ra, ha should at once, ‘says Rubini, ‘lie down, be well wrtpped up in blankets, and take every five minutes four drops of the saturated tincture of camphor. In very severe cases the dose ought to be increased to from fire to tweoty drops every fire minutes. In the ease of a man of advance age strut toroed to take wiua and spirits, where the drug given iu drops has no effect, give a small coffee-spoonful every five minutes, and in a very short time the coveted reac tion will occur. Ordinarily, in two, three or four hours, abundant perspiration will come out, and then cure follow.” “The preventive method," write* Dr. Rubini, “is this: let lho>e who are in good health, while living iu accordance with their usual habits, take every day five drops of the saturated spirits of camphor upon a small lump of sugar (water roust never be used as a medium, or the ehamphor will become solid and its curative propertics ( cease,) and repeat the dose three or four times a day. Spies*, aromatic herbs, cofi'ee, tea and spir ituous liquors should bo avoided.” Two sparks from Loudon, while enjoying themselves among the heather in Argyll shire last annum, caine upon a decent look ing shepherd reading on the top of the hill They accosted him by remarking, a great way.” “Ou ape, a very good way,” “Ah!
