THE VgLoClTY OF ELECTRICITY.-The quess

electricity 2" or How long does electricity
take to 90 across the Atlantic ocean !" Elec.
tricity cannot properly be said to have We
locity, but differs with the circumstances
under which 1t travels. For about two-tenths
of "A second after contact is made with the
conductor OF an Atlantic cable no effect IS
perceptibe on the opposite side OF the ocean,
even by the most delicate instrument. AFTER
four.tentbs of q second, the received current
is about seven per cent. of the maxi
mum permanent current which the battery
could produce in the circuit. One second
after the FIRST coutuct the current Will reach
about half its final strength, and after about
three seconds Its full strength. The current
does not arrive all at once, like bullet, but
grows gradually from minimum to MAXI
