[Pacific Cable Company, arrived here by^ the Miowera on his annual tour of inspection. He says' the oabie is wofk:ing exceedingly well'tfnd that traffic is satisfactory as far as it went. At an early date changes will be made regarding the handing in of, messages and the placing of the! Pacific cable.oa the same footing as that of the Extension Company . . He considers the Y cable j comvpanies have nothins tof ear from wirelesss telegraphy, as there is a great deal of uncertainty about the system ; also rt is much slower, though; ie should prove^ -useful when applied to isolated places, where there is insufficient inducement ♦to lay x a cable. :. ....'-*/ ? <'•■■• - : - %■ :r ".
