How the Paeihc TELEGRAPH Works.
The business men OF New York appre.
oiAte the Commercial advantages Of tele-
/ graphic line TO the Pacific. On the first
/ day after communication between this city
and San Francisco was established, over
forty purely business dispatches we're sent
through, besides many Of q oongratulatory
eharuoter. The rates nov in use are s., ,95
for ten words, and forty-eight cents for
eaeh additional Word-Whieh are regarded
as moderate for the distance, and are not
likely 10 be reduced OF present. In theaet
OF Congress giving authority to build the
line, il was expressly forbidden TO tx the
through rates above 81 % for ten words,
and thirty-six cents for each additional
word but no definite raies were men
toned for the way business. Mr.. J. Il.
Wade, President Of he line, has telegraphed
to this city that q mqsting Of the Directors
viii soon be held, ana q tariff Of rates
made for all the intesmediale points. IN
Ill then, the through fates will be paid for
lelegrams 70 Salt Lake City, Carson City,
Nevada Territory, and every ether station
on the route. In estimating the cost Of
telegraphing from GeS York City, or other
points, 10 San Francisco, the regular rates
to ST Louis are simply added to those
which new are, or may be, fixed for the
Pacific line beyond,
Thers is q difference Of about 4Sl de-
grees OF Longitude between New York City
and San Francisco. If telegram we're
instsntaneously sent over the whole line
il would reach San Francisco st time, ac-
cording TO the clocks Of that city, about
three hours aud fifteen minutes before the
time at which il Left New York according
10 the clocks here. Thus q dispatch seHt
from this city 1t the high business hour Of
l03 A. NJ would arrive at San Francisco
before the man to whom il was addressed
was out Of bed; while dispatch started
from this city in the edge Of the evening
would ind the same man up 10 his neck in
business. Though these astonishing things
are theoretically possible, yet, practically,
It takes sn sppreciable space Of time TO
get & dispatch from New York to the Pa
oi6o. The weather is rarely favorable for
the telegraphic feat Of working so long q
distance without repeating; and, even If
it were, The various divisions Of the line
would be scarcely ever unOcoupied with
business which could be suspended 10 let
dispatch straight through.
Under the present arrangement, the
New York telegram is copied four or i've
times before it reaches San Francisco, aHd
has to take its turn with other dispatches
at every repetition. Messages may be sent
and answers received in the same day
but If the wires are crowded with busi-
ness, communications back aud forth will
probably take part Of two dsys. For all
practissl purposes this is almost IS good,
though not near 50 amazing, as the instant
telegrapbie fash. On specially important
occasions, like the arrivals Of European
steamers, when the atmosphere along the
whole line is just right, the wires will be
worked from New York, aud even from
Halifax to San Francisco, without inter
ruption.-N 7. Journal Of COnmeTes

MORNING LEADER.


By The steamship AFago, which arrived
In New York On g thursday, We have some
further.ssEs ing the proposed EE-
pednien 70 alsxso. The Paris correspond
snos Of The London Times says thai the
Syndicate Of Commerce at Paris, at q
meeting on the eighth OF October, decided
that France should cooperate in the in
tsrventisn, and that for that purpose the
sxpsditioaary force shOuld be instructed to
PsReirais into the interior, end act in
Mexico. The general understanding now
is thHt France and Spain win penetrate
int the interior Of the country and march
on The Capital itself, while the British
squadron takes possession Of the ports and
customs. The former powers viii send 3
fOses OF 5000 men. This force will have
in charge the Political adjustment Of the
di3sultiss, while Eugland takes charge Of
the moneys At the coast and divides the
proceeds Of the custom houses among The
claimants.
