ATTACKS ON THE ELECTRIC TELEeRArH.-We
hear of vagabonds and scoundrels, when in
portant news is to be expected by telegraph, cut
ting and otherwise defacipg the wires.
There is another kind of attack on this ex-
traordinary invention, which exhibits an equal
amount of malignity, but less intelligence. We
perceive that two OF our contemporaries assert,
in reference to the recent transmission of the
Governors Message over the wires from Albany,
that numerous inaccuracies were committed,
and give it as their opinion that the telegraph is
not useful for the transmission of long docu-
ments.
We beg leave entirely to differ from such a
conclusion. If you give good and fair copy of
any written production, to any of the operators
on any of the old lines, they will transmit the
matter with as much accuracy as one of the
best short hand reporters cou The blunders
committed in the Governors Message grew out
of an attempt by certain persons in Albany to
condense it; but who were unable or incompe-
tent for the task. The recent speech delivered
by Mr. Calhoun in Washington, was reported for
the Herald most admirably by the telegraph; but
the operators had nothing to do but follow the
plain and correct copy furnished by our admra-
BILE reporters in the Senate in Washington.
The use Of The electric telegraph is hardly yet
known. 1t is going to produce as great an effect
on intelligence, and on its transmission, as any
discovery since the creation of the world has
done. 1t will cause condensation in all commu-
nications, particularly those connected with the
newspaper press; and that is of great and invalu-
able use in the actual frightening of human life.
