The Revised Tariff of Atlantic Gable Tolls

To correct misapprehensions i'll regard to the
new tariff of the Atlantic Gable Companies, we
give the following points of the agreement enter
ed into by the several companies interested for
the readjustment of the charges and conditions
for transmitting messages between Europe and
America, to take effect on 1st OF December next:
Five Words consisting of not more than twenty
five letters in ALL to be allowed free with each
message for address and signature.
The minimum charge for amessage between any
part of Great Britain and the city of New York to
be f5 5s., or S25, in gold, for ten words or less
not containing in all more than fifty letters. The
charge for each additional word of not exceeding
five letters, ten shillings, or 50 so, in gold.
All extra charges for code messages are abolish
ed. The company, however, will not undertake to
accept every form Of code that may be presented
unless at special rates.
Messages in cypher will be charged at the rate
of f5 S., or s25 in god for the first ten cyphers
and 10s., OF 81 50 i'll gold, for each additional
cypher.
n. BY 'cypher" is meant the Use of numer-
ais, or of letters of the alphabet forming neither
any known nor dictionary word nor names OF
Places ships or persons, &c.
When cypher is intermixed with plain words the
plain portion OF the message will be charged at
the ordinary rate, and the remainder as cypher.
In counting dispatch, when the text (or body
of the message) requiring to be sent does not
amount to ten words, fifty letters, any remain
der, up to the ten words may be applied, without
extra charge, towards the ampldcation OF the
name and address.

CURIOUS REsULT-sLA0K voT1Na-TaE WHITE
REPUBLICANS AS WELL AS THE CONSERVATIVES
ABSTAIN FROM VOTING.
An evidently we'll posted correspondent OF the
Savannah Republican IA moderate Republican pa
por) writes from dackson'1lle, Florida, under date
of the 23d inst;
bave not yet received the complete returns of
the election in Florida, but according to our i'd
vices last night the result Of the voting in several
of the counties not included in report yester-
day, and which have since been heard from is
very disproportonate to the registration. The
additional returns, however, which are nearly all
sent in, confirm our statement Of about four hun
dred majority for 2 Convention. In Hamilton
county, Middle Florida, there were nearly eight
hundred registered and but little over two hun
dred votes we're cast Out of four hundred and
two whites registered in that county but one vote
was polled, both the white members Of the Board
OF Registration refusing to vote, and more than
two hundred original Union men-Southorn ic-
allsts and avowed Republicans declining to par
ticipate in the election. In st. Johns county but
ore hundred and thirty-seven out OF four hundred
and thirty registered votes we're poed and of three
hundred and eleven whites only thirty voted In
Volusia county, out Of one hundred and fifty reg
istered voters but twenty-one votes were polled
during three days election. Many Of the registers
themselves either neglected or refused to vote.
If we are correctly informed, and we believe we
are, there was not more than nine hundred white
votes cast in tho State, out of over eleven thou
sand whites registered.
The result Of the election in Florida is marked
and significant in the extreme. It is clear indi-
cation of the actual drift Of the public mind, even
in that State which has been relatively undisturd-
ed by social outrages and exitements, and where
the line OF demafcston between the races has
been less visible and not so rlgidly insisted upon
The white Republicans in that State number about
two thousand, including the native Union element,
loyal refugees, or Northern emigrants, and moi
one-half of them have voted at this election.
That there is strong loyal conservative ele-
moderate sort, in Florida, the result OF The cleo
tion clearly and forcibly exhibits. The extreme
Radical wing is composed OF four white men, and
it is said about one-half OF the blacks The Bill
lngs Radical elected but thirteen delegates to the
Convention, the straight Republicans thirty-one,
and Conservatives two.
