cable mixup

I cant tell which of the battery cables is which. The only distinguishable difference is that one has a little arrow on it and the other doesn't. Help! I do not want to fry my fusible links. Could someone check their car and let me know which is which?

the one that goes down to mount to the side of the shock tower and then on to the motor is the negative.

If you can't figure out which cable is which let someone else work on your car you probably be better off.
