WOReUSOOF TUB ATLANTIC CABLE.
Th London Morning Tost givei lb Cut
Vowing interesting account or tbo working of
me telegraph :
Tbe slowness of the signals through lb
Allantio telegraph cable does not depend on
tbe retardation of electricity in passing
through the length of tbe wire. If the wire
were suspended in the air there would be no
uiLucnlty in transmitting as rapidly as tbe in
struments could be worked j but when tbe
wire is covered with gutta perch, and im
mersed tn water, it retains I lie electricity, and
the charge once communicated to the wire
requires time lor its disc home.
The first signal made is transmitted almost
instantaneously through the conduction wire
to the instrument at tbo other end ; but tbe
wire does not readily part with the charge,
and the electricity it retains prevents tbe ef
fect of a second sigDal from being perceived
on the distant instrument, 'l'liia peculiar ef
fect begins to be perceived in an immersed
wire at a distance oi nity muos, ana increase
in force as the distance increased so that, at
200 miles, communication by Morse's tele
graph would bo impracticable, unless means
were adopted to counteract tne aeiainiiig in
fluence of tbe external conductor. When
tbe Hugue was laid down, the difficulty of
ttansmission through a submerged wire be
came for the first time observed, and tbe
Morse instrument then employed would Dot
act in consequence. Hut the difficulty was
shortly overcome by discharging the wire af
ter each signal, which was done by sending
on electrical currant in the reverse direction.
With the needle telegraph the eflect had been
scarcely perceived, for in the ordinary work
ing of that instrument the electrical currents
are continually reversed j but with the re
cording instrument, in which the electricity
operates always in the same direction, a spe
cial arrangement for reversing the current
becomes essentially necessary. How fur that
arraugemeut cniy will suffice to clear the wire
bus uot yet been determined, but it seems
evident that it is sufficient for the Atlautic
cable.
If the difficulty that has arisen were owiug
to the retardation of the electric current,
there would be little hope of it being over
come for the nutural velocity of electricity
could not be incroused ; but when it is known
thul the slowness with which oue signal fol
lows another is attributable to a peculiar cou.
liitioii of tho wire which bus been effectually
neutralized, by special arrangements, for a
ilistuuce of two or three hundred mites, it
may be reasonably expected that other con
trivances may be adopted that will overcome
tho difficulty, even across the Atluutic.
TELEGRAPHIC INSTUUMESTS.
As the Electricians are supposed to be
experimenting at Triuity liay end Yulutitia
with the various recording instrument iu
II.-, it is or Merest to know what uro tbe
chief difference's betwoeu them.
The Slorsa i.irtruineut, in common use
from the first in this country, transmits mes
micres by the alternate breaking aud re-con-noctiug
of the electric current. The currant
allowed to flow a moment produces a dot, if
u little longer a line. Tbe operator taps 00
u single key, and the 'message uro recorded
by an alphabet composed or combination of
liues and dots, thus:
. In the
hand of an expert the speed of this instru
ment is about twenty words a minute.
Tne Cook and Wbeatstoua instrument is
iho oue that until lately has been geuerally
1 ed in Knglund. A needle on a dial plato
evolves, pointing out the letters, which are
iwribed around the circumference like tbe
mur on the lace of a clock. This is a much
uoie intelligible process to outsiders ; but it
i blow, accomplishing at the late6t only
bout fourteeu words a minute.
The House instrument prints the message
l Roman capitals on a long strip of paper by
ie revolution of a type wheel, the upjrator
'.yiug upou a key-board like that of a piano
.lh a key for each letter. The priuting is
jtie by clock-work, the nse of the electric
irreut being to preserve equal lime, so
1 at the letters of one machine may corres
nd to those or tho other. This instrument
ints twenty-five to thirty words a iniaute.
The Hughes instrument is a combination
the Morse aud House inventions, lu tbo
orao instrument two or three pulsations of
e i lectric current are renuired to indicate
0 letter, lu the House instrument it re-ii-os
from ono to twenty-sight pulsations,
the Hughes instrument it requires but a
ylu pulsation fur each letter. The mechan.
i by which thi3 is accomplished is simple,
)gU the principle on which it is based is
npies. The typo wheels ut tbe reepective
lions revolve" to print the message, aud
:ir revolutions ore governed by vibrating
tugs. Theso springs cause them to ro
ve 111 exactly the same time. There is nu
us'.ic principle involved, viz: that two
iti"g. which cive the same musical tone
la vihratinc. vibrate the same number of
es per second. The spring are therefore
sen and regulated by sound. This iustru
lt it is evident economizes both time aud
trie power. Its exceeding sensitiveness
l.e leust perceptible pulsation of the tlec-
urrents adaots it especially for long
s and gubmarioe cables. It is capable of
ii.i' forty words a minute, with about
Uuih the battery power of other iustru
u and send messages both way at
, At least so its inventor claims, and it
. lie tested on the Atlantic cable. Albany
