Progress of the Electric Telegraph. ‘The rapid development and extensive application of the electric telegraph seems more like miraculous result thao the efforts of man.

With a few plates of platioum and zine immersed in dilute acid, a coil of copr wire sorrounding an iron bar, and ao Trea cord stretched upon poles extending along the highway, man can now bold ivstantaveons converse with bis fellow mao from one end of the continent to the otber, With materials so simple in form and arrangement, such a power seems, indeed to be superbumaa. The march of invention has been regular in all its cadences; every note is situated in its appropriate place and all its numbers flow harmoniously. The invention of the compass for navigating seas enabled the dariog mariver to cross uvknowo oceans aud discover new realms, Afier this came the progression of peoples to the western hemisphere and the settliog of new continents aud isles of the sea, that united distant lands by the ties of kindred and commerce. Emigration and trade soon afterwards increased in an un precedented ratio, and the wings of the wind were found all to slow for wafting the merchant’s bark across the billows, Some great improvemeut was felt to be necessary for increasing commercial facilities and obtaining more frequent communication with separated friends, As if designed to supply the want, steam power thea joined io the march of invention, long voyages were shortened upon the sea, and by the railway distant settlements were more nearly linked together, at while these improvements undoubtedly brought separated nations and kiodred closer together, they also, at the same time, tended to invite the enterprising to the exploration of new and more distant realins.

Itreally appears as if the wide earth, through the influence of . discoveries in science, had of late years been . growing more and more like the abode of) one family, for there is scarcely a household ia any civilized community which has not a representative in some far off land, and with whom freqnent communication is much desired. And vow the telegraph joing in to complete the grand roll of social improvements, The electric cord now spans . the contivent of the New World, and faster than the earth revolves apon ils axis, messages epeed along the slender wire between the Atlantic aud Pacific cities. The first scientific suggestion for the construction of the present ,electric telegraph was made by Ampere, in 1820, and he applied the subtile galvanic coil-the principle upon which the electric telegraph is based, In 1837 Professor Morse publicly described his telegraph, which was invented in 1832, but Cook and Wheatstone, of England, first applied, the eleetric telegraph to public bus iness in 1838, Iu 1844 the first public telegrep line in America was erected between asbington and Baltimore, and since then we may truly assert the whole world bas been electrified by the invention, It is but seventeen years since the first line of 44 tiles was ¢rected, and now there are no less than 56,000 miles of line in operation in America, What an astounding development of the agencies for rapid communicution . Bat with the triumph of the Pacific telegraph, inventors and telegraph companies must not fold their bands under the supposition that we are at the end of improvemeut. We take this opportunity to suggest, as we did on a former occasion, that the telegraph is capable of being improved aud adapted to a much greater extent than it is, ag a eubstitute for the post offlce system, Of course improvements are necessary for increasing the number of messages sent by . each machine, aud the cost of operation must be greatly reduced. One man can write as fast as a common sounding ingtrument can receive messages ; but this is too slow for the presentelectric age. Compan: ies for working short independent lines should be formed in every city and in all thickly peopled districts, for introducing the telegraph as a substitute for the penny oat.’ The powers of each machine may greatly increased by modifying its parts and adapting it for working four, five or more wires—such a number not being ob jectionable on short lines. This is an important subject and it deserves general attention,—[Scientific American, : Eprrors anp Essayists.—There are multitudes of people who can write well for a newspaper, but not many who can edit one. Many mistake the businesss of an essayist . of license to collect tolls on the road leading from the . head of Washington street, Nevada City, through the for that of a journalist, believing that the merits of a newspaper increase in proportion with the longitude and number of original articles, They thrast before the public too much of individual opinion, and too little of the small details which reveal the work of the accomplished journalist, and . without which the newspaper is little else than a vehicle for the writer’s peculiar views, This would be well enough if the writer were always capable of instructing, originating great thoughta and marking ‘out the future course of exploring mind ; otherwise, it is of litthe more significance than the abounding garrulity of a young crow.

Itreally appears as if the wide earth, through the influence of . discoveries in science, had of late years been . growing more and more like the abode of) one family, for there is scarcely a household ia any civilized community which has not a representative in some far off land, and with whom freqnent communication is much desired. And vow the telegraph joing in to complete the grand roll of social improvements, The electric cord now spans . the contivent of the New World, and faster than the earth revolves apon ils axis, messages epeed along the slender wire between the Atlantic aud Pacific cities. The first scientific suggestion for the construction of the present ,electric telegraph was made by Ampere, in 1820, and he applied the subtile galvanic coil-the principle upon which the electric telegraph is based, In 1837 Professor Morse publicly described his telegraph, which was invented in 1832, but Cook and Wheatstone, of England, first applied, the eleetric telegraph to public bus iness in 1838, Iu 1844 the first public telegrep line in America was erected between asbington and Baltimore, and since then we may truly assert the whole world bas been electrified by the invention, It is but seventeen years since the first line of 44 tiles was ¢rected, and now there are no less than 56,000 miles of line in operation in America, What an astounding development of the agencies for rapid communicution . Bat with the triumph of the Pacific telegraph, inventors and telegraph companies must not fold their bands under the supposition that we are at the end of improvemeut. We take this opportunity to suggest, as we did on a former occasion, that the telegraph is capable of being improved aud adapted to a much greater extent than it is, ag a eubstitute for the post offlce system, Of course improvements are necessary for increasing the number of messages sent by . each machine, aud the cost of operation must be greatly reduced. One man can write as fast as a common sounding ingtrument can receive messages ; but this is too slow for the presentelectric age. Compan: ies for working short independent lines should be formed in every city and in all thickly peopled districts, for introducing the telegraph as a substitute for the penny oat.’ The powers of each machine may greatly increased by modifying its parts and adapting it for working four, five or more wires—such a number not being ob jectionable on short lines. This is an important subject and it deserves general attention,—[Scientific American, : Eprrors anp Essayists.—There are multitudes of people who can write well for a newspaper, but not many who can edit one. Many mistake the businesss of an essayist . of license to collect tolls on the road leading from the . head of Washington street, Nevada City, through the for that of a journalist, believing that the merits of a newspaper increase in proportion with the longitude and number of original articles, They thrast before the public too much of individual opinion, and too little of the small details which reveal the work of the accomplished journalist, and . without which the newspaper is little else than a vehicle for the writer’s peculiar views, This would be well enough if the writer were always capable of instructing, originating great thoughta and marking ‘out the future course of exploring mind ; otherwise, it is of litthe more significance than the abounding garrulity of a young crow.
