authority tor contradicting the sto

There Is no truth IN Il whatever, on the

The Mendacity of the Telegraph.

Il is PITY and a shame to say that the
telegraph has become So thoroughly demo.
rallied and utterly mendacious that the
appearance Of telegram on almost any
subject warrants the inference that the
contrary is the fact. Nothing less than
the strongest intrinsic probability in the
case itself is sufficient 70 rebut the pre-
sumption that the statement IS false.
Sometimes. indeed, one is obliged to be

it came over the wires The case is ex-

The First Full Acronautic Reeon-
nOisSance.
From Tho New York Herald

The aerial telegraphing experiment is a
decided success. Louis NAPOLEON used a
balloon to reconnoitre the position Of the
enemy az Solferino. just before that fam
Gus battle, but he had not the advantage
OF a magnetic telegraph arrangement to
communicates the result OF the reconnois
sances thus made. To-day Prot Lowe
ascended from the Armory Lot. The ca
uacity OF the balloon was twenty thousand
cubic feet. l. vas provided with signal
flags and powerful telescope; but as the
ascent was saade late in the afternoon,
and chiefly for the purpose OF testing the
practicability of maintaining a magnetic
circuit and operating in the balloon, 10
reconnaissance was attempted. 4 circuit
was established by looping one OF the ad
iacent telegraph wires-the one between
Alexandria and the War Department.
with helix wires several hundred feet in
length, wound upon a reel al the spot from
which the ascent was made. The helix
wires are very fine and flexible. They
communicated with delicate pocket
Morse apparatus, carried by the operator
in the balloon. The helices were paid
out from the reel as rapidly "a the ropes
attached 10 the balloon. An ascent OF
five or six hundred feet was made, and
the telegraphic arrangement worked
charmingly. When at the utmost eleva
ton attained, dispatches were sent TO the
President OF the United States through
the War Department.
After demonstrating the success Of the
experiment, Prof. Lowe was tussed thro'
the streets in his balloon, distance of
over half a mile, u the open lawn south
of the White House, when the balloon
was safely anchored for the night, with
view to repeat the experiment 70 morrow,
in the presence OF the President and the
Cabinet.
With this teleeraphic apparatus, and
the means of making an aerial rcconuoi-
sance, General may be accurately IN
formed of everything that may be going
on within long days march OF his posi-
ton in any direction

Prof. Lowe to the President while AZ his
