tenn tc regulate the Transmission by telegraph
Of gonerai news and Congressional aud Legs

Winch resolutions worG unanimously adopted.
It ~ sliN Oag conviction that the Magnetic
Telegraph shoaId hs nader tho exclusive con-
uoul Of the Gcncral Government, as branch
Of tho Pos:-oliico Department.; ba! as no dispo-
siton has been manifested BY Congress to adopt
this course, It is RIGHT that the community
should have the benefits oEtho Telegraph, even
though conducted by company. We have
no doubt that it will be ably and faithfully
managed BY tho above named company, and
we therefore trust that it will be literally pa
tronized The time is probably approaching
when this rapid mode of communicating ufoT-
nation, will be found Of immense Importance
10 both national and individual intercsis-for
IA case Of war nothing could be more useful
..ya thc conveyance Of intelligence, instruc-
