Compensation to the companies' officers has been
arranged on suitable terms, and such of them as have
served for five years and do not enter the service
of the Post Office will be entitled to compensation
equal to two-thirds of their present salary, with
a reduction of one-twentieth for every year short
of twenty which they may have spent in the
employ of the company. This arrangement will
not involve a heavy charge to the Post Office, as
nearly the whole staff will be re-engaged, and any
expenditure on this head will be far more than
compensated in the saving effected by the amalga-
mation of the companies, and by the use of the
present post offices as telegraph stations instead of
having separate offices and special officers. The
saving under the head of offices and clerks will enable
the Pos: Jffice to e xtend the system with advantage to
places which the telegraph companies could not have
reached without loss. Fortunately, the measure
has not been allowed to pass through committee
without sufficient oppdsition to cause a full discus-
sion. Mr. LEEIUAN'S antagonism has been much
as might be expected from an able and uncompro-
mising opponent. It has been of enormous service
to the promoters of the measure, for it has shewn
the strength of what he has attacked as the weak
points of the case. Mr. GOSCHEN'S cross-exami-
nation was more difficult to meet, simply because
it was more difficult to comprehend. Some of
the questions which he propounded will not con-
tribute to his reputation as a financier.
It has been shewn that the telegraphs are
maintained out of revenue, and that the whole
system is renewed once at least in fifteen years at
the expense of income ; and yet Mr. GOSCHEN
contends that, in addition to such a maintenance,
the companies should put by a sum equal to 6 or
7 per cent. of their capital annually for renewals.
Mr. GOSCHEN'S idea may be illustrated thus.
Suppose a landlord had fifteen cottages, and to
secure himself from depreciation he rebuilt one of
them out of revenue every fifteen years, would he
be required, in addition to paying for the rebuild-
ing out of revenue, to put by 6 or 7 per cent.
of his capital annually for the purpose of renewal ?
It must be obvious to the comprehension of a
schoolgirl that there is no necessity for providing
for the maintenance twice over ; and yet Mr.
SCUDAMOEE has had to answer twenty questions
put by Mr. GOSCHEN based on this fallacy. Mr.
LEEMA.N and. Mr. GOSCHEN are ardent supporters
of Mr. GLADSTONE. It is supposed that they are
acting for his interest in opposing the measure
now, and giving the Liberal party the credit of
carrying it next year. That the measure will be
passed this session if Mr. GLADSTONE chooses there
cannot be a doubt, and he will incur a grave respon-
sibility if he does not give it his support. No one
knows better than he does that for three years
this subject has had the fullest consideration.
The estimates now presented have been prepared
at his instigation, and, so far, he is entitled to the
credit of the original idea. Whether he now
chooses to allow the bill to pass or not, the present
Government will be entitled to all the credit
which can attach to the careful preparation and
energetic prosecution of the scheme. if they are
defeated it will not be their fault, but it will not
the less be a serious misfortune. To say nothing
of the waste of labour involved in scattering all the
arrangements which have now been brought to
a point, the delay of twelve months will involve
a loss to the country of little short of a million
of money. Telegraphic receipts are increasing at the
rate of £50,000 annually, and this time next year
this increased rate will have to be paid for, if the
telegraphs are not purchased now. The House of
Commons can never be in a better position to deal
with the question than they are at present, or
rather will be when the report of the committee is
presented. The evidence put before that com-
mittee is absolutely exhaustive. As before stated,
the arrangement with all the companies interested
has placed at their disposal all the facts that can
be known. The Government will have to pay, not
upon these facts as presented, but upon the facts
subject to the investigation and revision of duly-
qualified arbitrators. The only point which the House
has to determine is, whether it will allow the Post
Office to enter upon a business which at present
pays five per cent. upon the capital required, with
every prospect of an increase. By undertaking
this business the Government can at once confer
large advantages upon the public, and obtain a
substantial profit. It will be a subject of much
regret if party feeling is allowed to stand in the
way of such a desirable result.

THE evidence which has been given before the select
zommittee on the Telegraphs Bill puts us in poses-
sion of the case upon which it is proposed that the
Government shall purchase existing telegraphs
and work them in future for the public advantage.
The agreements which, subject to the approval of
the Commons, have been entered into during the
last few days with the telegraph companies, and
with the railway companies who are interested in
telegraphic communication, have been put in as
evidence, and these agreements so far simplify the
question that the whole subject may now be
said to lie in a nutshell. The basis of all these
agreements is the purchase of existing interests on
a payment of twenty times the present net revenue,
the amount to be ascertained by competent arbi-
trators. By entering into these preliminary arrange-
ments the Post Office authorities have been enabled
to ascertain and to lay before the committee all the
details which are required for a complete estimate
of the cost and consequences of what they propose
to do. This information has shown that the
total receipts for telegraphic communication are
much greater than they were supposed to be. Tho
purchase-money will, consequently, be much
greater; but since the outlay will be precisely in pro-
portion to the revenue, no complaint is likely to
arise on this score. As the scheme becomes more
comprehensive and complete, the prospects
of public advantage and pecuniary success
are largely increased. Not only are the inland
telegraph companies now arranged with, but the
submarine cables are also agreed for, and the
interests of all the railways are included. Thus, if
the bill pass this session the whole scheme may
come into complete operation about this time next
year, and the public will then enjoy the advantage
of a uniform telegraphic system throughout the
three kingdoms.

Any article not approiad of will be exchanged, or the money
will be returned.

In consequence of frequent misrepresentations, E. MOSES
and SON find it necessary to state that they do not employ
any travellers or agents, and that their only Establishments
are the above-mentioned.

The convenience which will arise from the uni-
formity of system, the proposed extension
of offices, and a reduction of charges, is
sufficiently obvious, and the only question is
at what cost can these advantages be obtained.
If we had to pay for this large and permanent
public benefit a sum equal to that which we have
paid for killing King THEODORE, the purchase
would be a good one, and Mr. SCUDAMORE, the
author of the measure, would be entitled to divide
the public favour with Sir ROBERT NA.ruit. But
we are not called upon to do anything of the kind.
At the highest estimate of the cost, and the lowest
estimate of the receipts, not one shilling of loss
will accrue to the public revenue. Mr. SCIIDA-
MORE'S extreme figure for the purchase is
£6,000,000, and even on the impossible supposition
that reduced charges and increased facilities will
not cause any addition to the present number
of telegrams, the revenue will be sufficient to
pros ide for the interest which the Government
will have to pay on the purchase money. There
can, however, be no ground for supposing that
the increased facilities which are to be afforded
will fail to bring a substantial addition to the
present inunher of messages. Mr. SCUDAMOaE
has put in a carefully-prepared estimate, shelv-
ing the number which he expects to obtain
under the proposed system; and as this estimate
is based upon twenty-eight years' experience in
the English Post Office, and is partly founded
upon the results which have already followed the
telegraphic operations of foreign Governments,
there arc good reasons to suppose that it will be
