The WAY THE CABLE TALKs.-An operator
sits at table in a room darkened by curtains.
On his desk stands little instrument named
the "refecting galvanometer," the invention
of Sir William Thompson, without which At
lantic Telography would be slow process, not
exceeding tive or three words per minute, in
stead of eighteen or twenty, the present rate
Tbis delicate instrument consists of tiny
magnet and small mirror swinging on silk
thread, the two together weighing but few
grains. The electric current, passing along the
wire from Valencia, defects the magnet to and
fro. The mirror reflects spot of light on to a
scale, in box placed at the operators right
hand, where, by its oscillation, the spot of light
indicates the slight movement of the magnet,
follows every change in the received current; /;
and every change, great or small, produces
corresponding oscillation of the spot of light
on the scale. code of signals is so arranged,
by which the movement of the spot of light is
made to indicate the letters of the alphabet.
When receiving a message from Valencia,
the operator watches the movements of the
light speck, which keeps dancing about over
the scale on his right. To his practiced eye,
each movement Of the spot of light represents
a letter of the alphabet, and its seemingly fam
tastic motions are spelling out the intelligence
which the pulsings of the electric current are
transmitting between the two hemispheres. 1t
is truly marvellous to note how rapidly the ex-
perienced operator disentangles the irregular
oscillations of the little specks into the letters
and words which they represent.
