ships could bring. The Iris and the Amethyst came up time after time and disgorged their iron contents. Yet this Leviathan swallowed ship-load after ship-load, as if she could never be satisfied. A writer who visit- ed her in May, when the cable was nearly all on board, was at a loss to find it. He looked along the deck, from stem to stern, but not a sign of it appeared. How he searched, and how, the wonder grew, he tells in a letter to the " Kail way News. " After describing his approach to th...e ship, and climbing up her sides and his survey of her deck, he proceeds : "But it is time that we should look after what we have mainly come to see, the telegraph cable. To our intense astonishment, we behold it nowhere, although informed that there are nearly two thousand miles of it already on board, and the remaining piece a piece long enough to stretch from Land's End to John O'Grroat's is in course of shipment. We walk up and down on the deck of the Great Eastern without seeing this gigantic chain which is to bind together the Old and the New "World ; and it is only on hav- ing the place pointed out to us that we find where the cable lies and by what process it is taken on board.
