FEMALE TELEGRAPHIC OPERAToRs.-A London let
ter in the National Inelligencer says.
We are glad to find that females are now employed
as the principal operatives in the electric telegraph
offices. The occasion of the opening md propagation
of Parliament are always field days at the electric tel
egrsph stations owing to the general desire through
out the country to receive the royal speech with the
utmost possible despatch All the officials are on the
qui uiue picked hands are appointed to work the in
struments communicating with the principal stations,
and spirit of friendly rivalry prevails amongst the
manipuators as to who shall transmit correctly the
greatest number of words within given time. Up
wards of hundred and fifty clerks are generally
engaged in forwarding, receiving, and transcribng
her Majestys address; and Saturday, for the first
time, the services of the female clerks employed
at the Electric Telegraph COmpanys station were
called into requisiton. They forwarded the speech
with remarkable rapdity, in or two instances
equang, if not surprising the speed and correctness
of their more experienced male coad TUTORS 1t may
not be generally known that the Electric Telegraph
Company have established departments for young
girls under maron, with the view OF atfording
wider and intellectual scope for female employ
ment and the experiment promises TO be highly sue
sessful. The most rapid result of Saturdays sending
was at rate of thirty five words per minute. Tht
transmission 10 the Continent (via the Hague) wal
effected in twenty minutes.
