When the first electric telegraph was

was from four to five words q minute
with the five needle instrument. In
1849 the average rate for newspaper
messages was IL words minute. The
present pace of the electric telegraph
between London and Dublin, where the

regarded as miraculous so years ago
has multiplied a hundredfold in half a

has Just closed very successful engage
ment IN Augusta. The Chronicle says that
the show approximates the marvellous. The
intelligence of the horses, their thorough
education, the knowing way in which they
obey the slightest command, the care and
dizziness with which they perform difficult
feats and apparently dangerous tricks, is
astonishing.
That hundreds of persons can be enter
tanned for hours by dumb animals, is in it
self a wonder the school, the drill, the
bell ringers Mattie's knowledge, Denver's
tricks, Minnie and Eagles reasoning, Vic
torIa and Dynamite's debut-all astounded
the large audiences that have witnessed the
show The work of Matte, a horse, really
a wonder of the world, is great The steeds
seem to comprehend anything and every
thing. To say that they are thoroughly
trained would not convey an idea of the
performance. The animals seem to possess
the faculties of the human mind and attain
a degree of efficiency in education that can
not be understood without witnessing their
presence and antics on the stage.
