open upon our streets, and soldiers just paid

stages of intoxication. Men who have fought
the rebel enemy foryears, and are entitled to
a nations gratitude, are here exposed to an
enemy in comparison with which armed reb-

that so many indications exist that the laws
are allowed to remain practical nullity.

"OCEAN TELEGRAPHING-,,

A little book bearing the above title has just
been issued from the Riverside Press. 1t Is
prepared by Mr.. S. F. Van Choate, praeti-
cal and scientific telegraphist and inventor,
who therein discusses the causes and the rem
edies of those difficulties which impede the
practical working of submarine telegraph
wires. According to Mr.. Van Choate, the
condition Of success most difficult to secure in
all telegraphing, is the complete insulation of
the wire or cable from conducting substances,
which rob it of the electric fluid. In proper
iaon to the loss by defective insulation must be
The continuity of the force of the battery
which supplies the fluid, to make up for the
loss. The cable must be kept charged, in
spite OF the loss. The difficulty of keeping up
this charge is proportionate with the length Of
line.
Mr.. Van Choate is an inventor of an instru-.
ment called the !ESelf-adjusting Repeater, in
tended to receive the message from the bat
terry at either end of the line, and deliver il
over into the power of the bettery at the other
end. He claims that by it is obyiated the diff
Guilty arising from the tendency Of the electric
currents generated at either extremity of the
line to escape and cut back passing through
the the earth and waterto their respective poles
of the batteries, thereby forming two distinct
circuits. If lit should prove equal to this task it
will be the finest achievement wrought in tele-.
graphing since the introduction Of the art
Mr. Van Choate treats the claim set up that
messages We're ever transmitted by the first
Atlantic cable, as preposterous, as an inn
puaent deception, the thing being scientifcaL
" impossible with such arrangements, and be
predicts that the second attempt will result

events are likely TO soon settle that question
