The Telegraph Between Rawls and the
Untied Stater.
The following paragraph, purporting to ema
nate from Washington, is going the rounds of
the newspapers: - •
TELEGRAPH nos THE AMOUR BITER TO AKERIGA.
Minister Clay writes from St. Petersburg, to
a gentleman in this city--"Thek have granted
me a telegraph line charter, the line to run
from the month of Amoor river to A.merksa.—
It will unite all the continents and be the
great work of the age. It will illustrate my
mission to this country."
To thoie. who are unacquainted with the
progress of the negotiations which have result
.
ed in securing the consent of the Russian GOV
eminent to the line referred to, it would seem,
from the above, that the project originated with
Mr. Clay, and that the grant which " Mei
tratea" his mission was made directly to him
self. So far is this from the truth that the
original application to the Russian Government
was not only made long before Mr. Clay's first
visit to Russia, but was pushed through its ne-.
cessary stages of reference, and had been laid
before the committee of Ministers for final de
cision, previous to his return - to St. Petersburg
in May last. Ehort history of the origin and
progress of this enterprise—one of the most
important of this age—is (Inc to the public.
Its originator was Mr. Perry McD. Collins;
U. S. Commercial Agent for the Amcor river,
who laid his proposal for the constructioteof a
telegraph line from the Amoor via 'Behring's
Straits to Oregon before the Russian Govern
ment, as early as 1859. At that. time, however,
he received only a permission to make a survey
of the , proposed route. He thereupon returned
to the United States and succeeded in interest=
lug some of the prominent American telegraph-
ists in his scheme. The present administration
. •
gave him tho most - prompt and cordial support,
and be was re-appointed to the position he held
under Buchanan for the sole purpose of afford
ing him facilities to prosecute his enterprise.
When Gen. Cameron was received by the Em
peror Alexander 11 , soon after his arrival in St.
Petersburg, in June, 1862, he took occasion to'
renew the discussion of the subject, and his re
.
ference to it was most cordially received by the
Emperor. Mr. Collins reached; St. Petersburg
early in September, and thereupon , Gen. Carrie
ion sent the following note to Prince Gertscha
cow, 'Minister of Foreign Affairs: ,
LEGATION Or Tall UNITED STATES,
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 6, 1862. s. .
The undersigned, Envoy . Extraordineryand
Minister Plenipotentiary of the United , States of
America, begs leave to recall to the memory of ;
His Excellency, Prince Gorteloacow;Vice Chan-'
cellor of the Empire, the conversation which he
had with His Excellency at Peterhoff, on the.

Collins, •the former. • and prose* Commercial
Agent of the Witted fitateeforlhe Amoor river,
enables the undereigned to commuhicate the
proposal, in a definite form, to the Government
of His Imperlal Majesiy: '
The first application of ?fir: Collins to His
Excellency, Gen. Chefkin, Wei Director of the.
Communication, of Comunicition, waffler the right of.
way and privilege to Oonstrdht a line of telegraph
from the Eastern terminus of the Government
line in Ruisia to the nearest point of telegraphic
communication In the United States. Since
then, however, the vast progress:Which has been
made in telegraphic enterprise, in both coun
tries, has not "only greatly shortened the link
which it was proposed to fill, but 'reduced the
plan to limits which render it practicable and
certain. The Russian line, which then termi
nated at Kagan, is now extended to Omsk, in
Western Siberia, andln the course: of another
year will probably reach Irkutsk; while the
American lines, then, extendlog only to St,
Louis, on the Mississippi. river, now Strike the
Pacific Ocean et l l3an Francisco, and in a stfo r it
time will be continued to the Northern frontier
of the United Stated, in Oregon—thus leavinge
gap of lees than five thousand: miles, to com 7
pieta the telegtaphic union ot , two the conti=
The present plan of Mr. Collins, therefore, in
the construction of, a line from the mouth of
the Amoor, by the way of Okhotsk and Eam
schatka to Behring's Straits, across that narrow
channel to the American continent; aid-thence
by land through the :Rnseian Possessions and
the email portion of British America , which in
tervenes, to the territory of the UniteriStates.
This plan has been embodied' a will&
has passed to a second reading in the Senate of
the Uetted States, and will undettbtedly receive
the sanction of the Government, appropriating
one Iturdred thousand dollars for tho purpose
of ascertaining, by survey, the meat practicable
and economical route between the' two points.
The dispatches which the undersigned has re
ceived from the Department .of State, justify
him in assuming that his Government is ready
to assist the undertaking withra liberal subsidy
—probably to the full extent of theaid which
it guaranteed to the submarine telegraph acmes
the Atlantic Opean. Nothlogooow remains but
that the Government of Hie Imperial Majesty
grant the right, of way,
.without .which priv
ilege the enterprise cannot „be carried into
operation. His Exeeeleecy, den. Chefkin,
Chief Director of the Ways of Commenication,
has, itria true, given to Mr. Collins permission
to survey is route for theproposed line, but the
survey along; 'for a great portion .of the die=
lance,would cost scarcely less than the conetrim
' tion of the line iteelf,',and were the right of wiry
work could be completed
much more ectohoinimily and rapidly they if
that right were withheld until after the survey
shall have been Made. In flick 'in - order to be
properly supported by the capital Which is relied
upon to construct the line; some stroeger gear
tee of the favorttble disposition Of 'Reeds than
the mere right of survey, is indisPensably roe
required. - •
•
Another consideration, which should - have
weight with the government of His Imperial
Majesty, is, that by the granting of this privi
lege, the work will proceed simultaneously With
that of the extension of the Rusaianlines to the
mouth of the Amoor, and the latter will thus
be the recipient of the profits ofoonnounicattion
with the American continent some yeats sootier
than would be the'caie; if the privilege were
delayed until these lines are finished. 'The
Russian government'will therefore, withopt any
ootlay,derive a substantial restart AI advantage
from the undertaking, in addition to the politi
cal advantage which, reciprceedir with that of
the United States ; it would obtain firm iostant
Communication. The future construction of a
telegraph line from Illorteli, v4_1140614 to

commercial ports of China, which may o -bp re;
garlid.as certain , will ren der the prepared•line

States end their troperiairfailinnetelalinnieste
In China and Japan. The undersigneeints'had
considerable experience in the business of tele
graphing in America, and has no hesitation in
asserting that, in his opinion, the plan of -Mr.
Collins cannot fail to he successful.
The undersigned would suggest, hoWever,
that if this undertaking receives-the sanction of
His Imperial Majesty, Mr. Collins be allowed to
deleot, ani be granted the right of way, for that
route which, on examination, shall prove to b:
best adapted for the purpose of telegraphic com
munication, whether the same be by way of
riehrings' Straite, or by the Kurile and Aleu
tian Islands, and - the peninsula of Alaska. As
there is no probability of any private interests
being effected by such a privilege, there can be
CIO objection to its being embodied in the most
liberal form. The enterprise has an importance
beyond the Intentions of its projectors—beyond
national interests, even. It is another step in
ttie grand forward movement ,of the world-$
another. of those , firlinnSks9r a wise ci vilization;

In conclusion, the undersigned would be&
leave to state that American capitalists are non?
ready to corn thence and complete the work, and
that its speedy fulfilment depends on the recapi
don whicirthe , above proposal shall receive from
the government of-His Imperial Majesty.
however; ,the latter entertains the design of
oottelluctingr the propcised line at its• own cost,:
Ate Government of the United• States will be
equally satisfied, _slim it desires, before all
things, that the telegraph connection should be
immediately established. . -
The undersigned takes this occasion.to renew
to His Exoellency, Prince GortchaeoW, the am;
ranee of his moat distinguished consideration.
(signed) . EIM.ON CAMERON.
The result of this note was, that the , plan of
Mr. Collins was at • once , taken up by the Impe- 2
dal Government, and ordered to to seriously;
considered. From beginning' to end, it was
earnestly supported by the American legation.
After the departure of Generel Cameron, Mr..
Taylor, Charged' Affaires, acting in the spirit
of, and prmeating the views embodied in; the'
above note, personally advocated the enterprise
by repeated interviews
.with the Director of
Ways of
.Communication, the Chief of the .
Asiatic Department end the Governor General
of-Siberia. In the beginning of April, of this
year, having successfully passed through all the
intermediate stages, it was finally laid before
the Imperial Cot(ntil of Ministers for the'
final decision The concurrence of the Em
peror had been •virtualiy-asiured from the be
