be spliced on to that part of the old cable which 
remained on board the Great Eastern, after last 
year’s failure, and the mammoth steamer will 
then proceed back to Newfoundland, laying 
a second sub-Atlantic telegraph cable. 
Tlie I'snlans. 
Wk quote from the N. Y. Herald the follow¬ 
ing:—“On Monday night lat-t, (3d inst.,) at about 
12 o’clock, B. Doran Killian sailed with an expedi¬ 
tion for the capture of the Island of Bermuda, 
and on the following Tuesday night, at. about the 
same hour. Col. 1*. J. Downing .sailed (it the 
head of another expedition destined for the same 
place. Mr. Killian’s expedition was composed of 
three magnificent iron steamers, with altogether 
three thousand men, ail of whom Lad been eol- 
diers in the U. 8. army. Col. Downing had two 
steamers and two thousand live hundred men. 
Not a single man went with either expedition 
who had not been a tried soldier.” 
The papers are not agreed as to the destina¬ 
tion of the steamers—some believing that British 
territory in the northern Ameriean waters will 
be the first to bo honored with the “thunders” 
of Fenian cannon and the “glorious display” of 
the green flag dipped iu the blood pf the enemies 
of “Old Ireland.” Other naval operations are 
reported, the most important one of which, Is 
the sailing of seven Fenian war vessels from Cali¬ 
fornia on the. same day that the steamers of Kil¬ 
lian and Downing loll New York.
