T'RIDAY, OOTdjBER 1, 1868.
Past itints towattis the Magnetic Tele-
Onoe upon a time, we encottntorod a man of
groat ability, who Hadfoad, thought, and
"Acted mtich. biit w.hoao. oplnion of modern’
■science, tUochaulcai and .otherwise, was very'
disparaging. lie ■ believed - that 1 the ancients
hnew a' hundred things, in the Way Of me-,
chanics, of wbioh’ iSC werU wholly ignorant j
tbit HiKtid, and net James Watt, invented
tbe steam-engine; and that the Marquls of
WonoESTßß'was the undoubted re-dlsaoverer
of steam navigation and railroad locomotion.
TSeT arguments'by .whioh he sought'to esta
blish his proposition were curiously ingenious
At any Tate. 1 - • '
We directed Attention, a few days ago, to
oneoftM papers of Addison in.TAe Spectator,
in whichi reference is, made, to a passage on
the works-of -pAMuntf s ■ Steada, in wbioh the
modern mothbd'of'teligrS{itlfc'feommttnl(iatlon
is very,curiously shadowed forth. A* literary
iriepd, who has rather, inoro industry and
time than ourself, has -kindly sought and
found the passage in question, and has favored
hs, alaoy with some particulars respecting its
little-knowhauthor. , . . .
Stbada, was; born at Rome-in’.1672, and
having joined tbe Society : of Jesuits, in his
fifteenth year delivered lectures on rhetoric in
the College ‘of the Propaganda’., He devoted
his life to letters, end was specially ambitious
of-earning literary eclat.'-Among bis-most
noticeable literary performances was a series of
essays upon Oratory, Philosophy, and Poetry,
first printed in .1817, entitled Prolusions*
Jtcadtmica', in which are contained some ad.
mirable imitations of difTorent Roman authors,
In the style Of “Father Prout’s Heliques.”
Amongst the poets, whose style, is: parodied,
figure Ovid, Viroil, Lucan, Claudius, Sta
tius, Lucretius, and others. The' imitation
of LughetioS, whihh occurs in the'dzth,Pro
lusion of.'the',second .Book, contains the, re-,
markable description of the Loadstone and-its
power of communicating intelligence, which
we here glve in theongihal verbatim ■■

Having a,’thorough antipathy to dead lan
guages In si live newspaper, we take leave to
present hero a litoral translation of the above
passage* The oonclnsion is so remarkable as
to be actually prophetic:
“ The Loadstone is a wonderful sort of mineral.
Any articles made of iron, like needles, if touohed
by it, derive by oontaot not only peculiar power,
but a oertaln property of motion by whioh they
tom ever towards tbe Constellation of the Bear
near the North Pole.' By some peoullar corres
pondency of impulse, axiy number of needles,
whioh may have touohed the loadstone, preserve
at all times a precisely corresponding position and
motion. Thus it happens that if one needle he
moved at Home, any other, however far apart, Is
bound by some seoret natural condition to follow
the same motion.
“ If you desire, therefore, to communicate Intel
ligence to a distant friend, who oannot be reaehed
by letter, take a plain, round, flat diso, and upon
its outer rim mark down tbe letters of the alpha
bet, A, B, C, Ac., and, traversing upon the middle
of your diso, have a needle (whioh has touohed
loadstone) so arranged that. It may be made to
touch upon any particular letter, ad libitum.
Make a similar dieo, the exaot duplicate of this
first one, with, corresponding letters on its margin,
and with a revolving magnetised needle. Let the
friend you propose corresponding with take, at his
‘departure, one diso along with him,‘aod let him
Agree with »• you beforehand on what particular
days and at what particular hours ho will take
observation of the needle, to see if it ba vibrating,
and to learn what it marks on the index. With
this arrangement understood between you bath, if
you wish to hold a private Conversation with this
friend, whom the shores of some distant land have
separated from you, turn your finger to the diso
and touch the easy-moving needle. Before you
He, marked upon the outer edge, all the various
letters; direct the needle to suelr Heitors as are
.necessary to form the words yon vfAnt, touching a
little letter here and there with the needlo’s point,
as it goes traversing round and round tho board,
until you throw together, ono by ono, your various
Ideal. Lo.! the wonderful fidelity of correspon
dence! Your distant friend fcotes tbe revolving
needle vibrate without apparent imputso* and fly
hither and thither round tho rim. He notes its
movements, and reading, as he follows its motion,-
the various letters whioh make up the words, he
perceives all that is neoessary, and learns your
meaning from the interpreting noedle. When he
sees the needle pauso, he, In turn, in like manner
touobes the‘various loiters, and sends back his
answer to his friend.
“ Oh! would that this style of writing were
brought in use, that a friendly message might
travel quicker and safer, defying snares of robbers
or delaying rivers. Would that tho Prince him
self would finish the great work with his own
,hands» Then, we race of scribblers, emerging
i from our sea of ink, would lay the quill an offering
ion the altars of the loadstone.”
se23~tJanl
i This idea of Strada’s is based upon the er
roneous inipresslon' entertained generally at
kho time when he wrote, that magnotio power,
when transferred from the loadstone to me-
Ullic articles like needles, communicated to
them a kind of homogeneous impulse, whioh,
pf necessity, caused between them a precise
sympathetic correspondence of motion* The
Practical idea of telegraphic communication
by means of a wire is, however, of much later
lt will; perhaps, astonish most of our
(readers to learn that as early as the latter part
o\ the eighteenth century, before Mr. Morse
w,B horn, the theory of eleotrical corres
pndence by means of a wire was practically
ilistrated. In the «Tour” of Arthur
Yung, Esq., F. R. S., tho- distinguished Ag
rlulturiat, published originally in 1780, and
wlchi contains a record of a journey through
1 Irtand in 1775-78, tho following passage oc
cui: ‘
'in Eleotriolty, Mods. Losmond has made a
reo-rkablo ;difioovory: you write two or three
wois on a paper : he. takes it with him into a
root, and turns & maohine enclosed in a oylindrl
calrnso, at the top of whioh is an electromotor, in
thehape of a small fine pUh ball. A wire con
no <s with a similar, cylinder and eleotrometer in
a dtant apartment, and his wife, by remarking
thoorrosponding motions of tho ball, writes down
theworda they indicate, from which it appears
thahe hat formed an alphabet of motions. At
thekngth of win makes no difference in the
ef&\ a correspondence might be carried oft at any
rffstjMto—within and without a besieged town, for

Brett, the is one of the Di
rectors of the Atlantic Tolegraph Company,
■made the folldWiftg interesting statement:
l' • « The very-fiWfc idea of the 1 Atlantic oable—l
may, perhaps,-be accused of egotism, I wish to
borrow no man’s laurels—was registered by my-'
self, and giy brpther in the Government office,l4’
Jeara ago. In .the year f 1845, at ttie-Jointstock
we registered .a submarine tele*
, graph to go from Valentla, Ireland, to St John’s, •
Newfoundland. ' N I will gd baok for one moment .to,
tell you the origin of that.- The telegraph had'
i been .working., botwean London and Slough. ‘ It”
struck ue ih conversation in the evening with‘my.
•brother; 1 whohad a coneiderable meohanioal turn,*
' tbat there was a latent power in ihetelegr&pVfor
r the 1 , benefit ofiall mankind;* In that evening the
idea. may say* took possession of. my owamind>,
and It never until X a&wjc earned out. lat
oboe urged it tipoh my brother, who Was then llv-
me;-and'wishing td'see him occupied, I said
if he would take opt averse to pa-..
tentSr-X would find measures to carry them out.
I then and there addressed- a letter tq Sirß. Peel,
who was then at the head of the Government} pro*,
'posing to unite' England and Franceif Government
would afford us assn lancer I rdoel ved a reply di
recting as tooall at the Admiralty-Office. l l/oalled
on. Sir S. Cookbum,- but. all the made were
rejected,' I then applied to the,King of the Frenoh
for assistance, wbiob, under.certain restrictions
was-at last ■ granted. fHear,' hear.] I dame
forward -purposely with my own funds, for
none were ready to support, so foolish an Idea,
and as the Times very justly observed on the oo
i oaeion, the jest of yesterday is become the
fact of to-day. I shall never forget -the day.
whon ’ the' Uttle steamer went-on her journey,
with-the -oable from Dover to .Calais.. jl watched
. the little boat with' trembling nntil its funnels ap
’pßara below tbe horizon, and until -its. smoke,
died away in the air, 1 dhtu 'at longth having
arrived' at Calais,' a signal was transmitted to the
opposite end ofthe line. / T fc. is quite true, as Pro
fessor Thompson said/ that there wa&but one mas-.
SSge transmitted ; audio mrprjsed were the by
■ standertf when the first message came out of the
tclegraph that'they asked if the paper. and all,
had travelled; across. ..Our telegraphic message,
was received between 1 aqd 2 o’olock in( the morn
ing in a little horse-box; in foot, myself and an at
tendant were the only persons left In oharge of it.
At 2 o’clock in the morning he said, ‘.All is well,
good night after the fatigneS of the day,’ and we
retired to. rest., Negt morning the continuity was
broken, and we ascertained. by .means similar to
those' by which'Professor Thompson, \ with his
'great ability, waS'able to ascertain almost the very
point where the damage to the Atlantio oable took
place—we ascertained i that. the had
taken place near,the£k9re* The. submarine-cable,
as you all' know,..was carried out next year be
tween England and France; but then bame the
question, could electricity be safely used at great,
depths?- The obanqel, as you are. aware, is but a
.merefishing-pond. 'Codld-a oablo belaid down
safely at the bottom of the ocean! I 'then pro
, posed to go ipto the Mediterranean, though the
two lines wbloh had fixed my mind wore ueomedly
India and Amerioa. 1 appealed to the, Emperor
of the Frenoh, and asked him to give me bis
assistance in the undertaking, stating that I pro-
Sised to/establish communication, between the'
ontinent and' Afrifla, and from that to India.
His reply was,'‘-Why don’t your own Government:
and the.lndian Government support you?’ I
said, ‘As yet they hod.no faith in such an under
taking ; when they saw the signals transmitted to
Africa they would, believe lt. r Thus,,'l Regret to
say, U was from a forbign country that I was
obliged to get enobunmement. • Mr. Brett; proceed
ed with a statement of bis laying a line to Corsica.
The. Sardinian, Government met him most nobly,
and placed assistance at his disposal. When they
were about to* bommenoe laylogthe oable in the
deep water the’ Emperor of the French expressed 1
a desire to. get tbe nest opinions in tbiaoountry as.
ito the pbssibUity :.of laying,the cable in those
grekt depths. On being-referred , to, the gentle
, men who were 'ai.that time believed to bejbeat ac
quainted with those matters said it would be im
possible. to lay- a. cable ,in water exoeeqing 600
fathoms in u denthr, i He (Mr. Brett) soldi he had
' TartMt-fc/vooXathoms;buttheyeald thathnust be*
an accident, and that'it could not be dorm again.
At that time/ however, he (Mr. Brett) had the
< cable all ready, and/rathdr than stop the underta
, king, he determined to oonooal the adverse opini
ons those gentlemen.,bad gVfen, tbe
babTe'at onoe. 1 * That was done* and the only fault
was want of length, being twelve miles'ahdrt. Tho
Mediterranean cable being laid, be*agaid turned
bis thoughts to-Amerioa, nod communicated with
Professor Morse and Mr. Field, and tbe underta
king was attempted, the successful issue of whloh
they were met that day to celebrate.” ’
Hotel Marketing in New York.
Oar New York correspondent sends ns a
I sketch of the market statistics of a first-class
! hotel in «the Empire City.” He has been
invited"to accompany, the steward, or inten
dant, to market, and assist in purchasing one
day’s food, and says t
I oosfess the programme was rather appalling.
What hungry wretohes we are! What heoatomba
it takes to tame down eurappetites!
Pint to Washington market— u the land of the
beef, the home of the bird.” Here the Reward
intimates to the man who “ runs wld do masheen
and kills for’Keyser,” that he desires thirty racks
of mutton, three sets of ribs of beef for roasting,
three sirloins ef beef, two lambs, four logs of
mutton, two rumps of inebriated beef, besides any
qnantity of calves’ heads, kidneys, livers* tripe
and sweetbreads. Next, of the feathery tribe, he
oalls for thirty pairs routing chickens, thirty-five
pairs for broiling, thirty-six Philadelphia rquaba,
fifty ohioken partridges* and several ‘ flocks of
young duoflk and greemgeese—the whole making
a carHoad of roast, boil, broil, and fry.
Our anticipatory'appotite gorged with the flesh
of beasts of the field and fowls of air and barn
yard, over we trudge to Fnlton market, at the
other terminus of the street. Here, after a few
satisfactory experimental tests and tastos, we think
we shall be able to got thrdughthe day with six
: barrels of musk-melons, : six 'water-melons, four
baskets of peachos, fifty poundß of hot-house
i grapes, four boskets of tomatoes, two hundred ears
I of oorn, two hundred okras, two borrols potatoes,
| and frightful quantities of string beans, Lima
■ beans, turnips, carrots, onions, cabbages, ououm*

Perhaps you may have the honor of recollecting
three highly respeotabto otd gentlemen of antiqui
ty, called Apioius. The first, who lived in tbe
time of Sylia, was simply a feodor, and of not
muati account. The second, who was more of a
gentleman, lived during tho administration of Ti
berius. This Chap went in strong for fish and oake.
Ordering up his yacht, he made a speoial sail,
on one oooosion, over to Africa, where hq un
derstood the shell-fish wore tip-top; but when he
approaohed the land, and'the fishermen came off
with what they assorted to be their best artlole,
the rubiound old gontleraan found them to be in
ferior to the Italian, plaoed his .thumb tip
of made a certain peouliar movement
with hjs fingers, winked a very sly wink, ordered
the jxiot to pumbout, and “ put” fdr home with
