The peculiar action ofthese pills is most surprising

the pureness of the circulating fluid On person in
fair state of health, who is only costive or slightly bill

TO THE EDITOR or rax LONDON TIMES.
Sr-Thc columns of The Times are not the
lace TO discuss the respective merits OF the various
Methods which have been proposed for instants-
ieous communication between distant places, de-
lived from the phenonena Of electricity. To dis
FUSS such a question fully would require much
pace and time; discuss II inpeTfecty would mol
erve the cause of truth 1t was for this reason
hat abetained from all such discussion IN my
etter OF the 10Th, and limited myself TO the state
nent Of such results and data as might supply you
with grounds of comment. In replying to Mr..
Walkers letter published in your number of Sa-
urday, I shall adhere to the same rule, although
ne has TO some extent departed from it.
The principal facts affirmed and commented on
by you in your leader of the 18th ut., and cor
Tolerated in my letter Of the 10th inst, were:-
FirsIy.-That the public in England availed
themselves of the electric telegraph as a means of
communication TO an Insignificant extent
Secondly .--That the public in the United States
Availed themselves of thus agent to comparatively
enormous extent.
This remarkable anomaly was explained in your
eader, and the explanation corroborated in my
etter, by the existence of an almost prohibitory
anff in gland, and one of a practicable and
moderate amount in the United States.
Mr. Walker, in reply, says, that it the tariff were
lowered, the telegraphlc communications would not
De incre ased "to any extent" and that they who
object to the charge are ''persons who never use,
and are never likely 10 use, under common cir
cumsfances, the telegraph He adds, that if even
he present charge were likely to bring heavy
cate an advance in pricrs. because he considers
The telegraph an Instrument to be used only
when other means fail, &c.
Leaving you to appreciate these opinions, | shall
aOw supply you with some fur Their data, showing the
comparative advantage obtained from the electric
telegraph in the Uniled States, under a moderate
Tariff, and in England under tariff six or eight
times higher.
1t is not olious that, tor commercial and social
purposes, the telegraph ia America is used to a
vastly greater extent than in England; but we do
not possess any exact statistical data showing the
exact ratio of this business. Its comparative use
10 journalism may, however, be tested by some
statistical results.
Not having access TO complete files of the Ame-
rican journals, | have taken nine numbers of the
Aew York Herald unfortunately, and have ascer-
tanned the number of words the several telegra-
phc dispatches which they contain, as well as the
average distances from which these dispatches
were transmitted.
1 have done the same with nine numbers of your
journal, and the results are given in the following
