The Telegraph as q Commercial gent
EThe Western Union Company,


1t is really matter Of astohishment
when we look back few years, and
contrast the old methods of communi.
cation with the present, and notice the
grand accomplishments of science In
furnishing news and mediums for the
promotion Of commercial activity, and
energy. 1t was tremendous impulse
forward when the genius of Stephen
son brought 10 the aid of commerce the
locomotive power of steam applicable
to the solid highways of terra JIrDiG.
The speed of water communications was
improved upon, but still mans ambi-
ton was not satisfied until the light
ntngs themselves were forced into the
channel Oftrade. as the active servants
of commerce.. 1t Is, of course, within
the memory of our young men that the
first telegraph wire was stretched be-
tween Washington and Baltimore, and
intelligIble signals flashed over
It! Since then our country has
become a net work of wires,
and not only the important
centers, bat almost every town and
hamletH has instant communication
with Its fellows, near and remote. Our
country has become a system of nerves
and electric pulsations, vivifying every
part from ocean to ocean, and living
- @@aN%A9 10 ~ SA40 OAA NtDAAAs'- w ANA-
In the past four or five years telegraph
communication has been greatly i'm
proved and systematized. Lines have
been multiplied and every important
point has now several outlets over diff
ferent routes, rendering it hardly pos
sjble that communication be totally In
terrupted by, atmosphere or other dis
turbance. Instead OF u limited number
of wires, confined to one route to. the
East and meagre facilities West, there
are now wires on every available route
East and West. The lines are abund-
ant and equal to any emergency or cali
that can be made upon them. 5....sl..
With no desiret to make tnvtdions dis
tinctions, we must say that the Vest
srn Union Telegraph Company has
been principally yinstrumentalfn in bring
ing about this desirable state OF affairS.

The Paris journals relate the follow
ing strange story: "a gentleman and
well-dressed young woman went the
evening before last TO one of the res
taurants in the Champs Elyses and or
dered dinner in a private room. All
passed TRANQUILITY until the meal was
concluded and cigars and champaigae
served, when, after short delay, the
woman rushed down stairs in state
OF great excitement, stating that the
gentleman had attempted to kill her.
She said that she had been accosted by
him on the BoulevarCls, he saying that
she was Caroline, and, upon her reply
ing that she was not, he persisted that
him to dinner, TO which she consented.
But when they had finished, he sud-
denly jumped up and exclaimed, Il see
you are not Caroline, and am going
to kill you.' She. however, made her
escape. The proprietor OF the restau-
rant, thinking this was q scheme of the
gentleman whom he knew as a GUS
toner, to get rid ofthe woman, took NO
further notice of the matter. However,
hearing nothing during an hour, he at
last entered the room and found the
gentleman extended on the sofa, bleed
ing profusely from a wound in the re-
gion OF the heart. at first, snspicions
were entertained that he had been
wounded by the woman, but upon the
table was found written in pencil on
piece of pa per, Caroline, my researches
for You have been unsuccessful. Life
without you has become einsupportable:

the Hospital oBeaujon, but his state in.
