ELECTRICAL RESEARCHES.
Showing lion Morse Utilized the Experi¬
ments of a Century.
It is the general belief that Professor
S. F. B. Morse was tho inventor of
electric telegraph. On tho contrary, hr
was not tho originator of the principle.
Researches were made in Leipsic by
Winkler in 1746, Watson in London
Le Monnier in Paris in 1747.
electricians used fictional electricity,
while no practical results came
their experiments the principle was
established. The earliest successful tele¬
graph was that of Le Sage in Geneva
1774. He constructed a machine
twenty-four wires and was able to trans¬
mit intelligence over short circuits.
About this time Lomond, a Frenchman,
also attained practical results, using a
single wire much after the method of Le
Sage. In 1798 Salva constructed a
machine at Madrid from which he ob¬
tained satisfactory results by using and
grouping a succession of electrical dis¬
charges by means ot an electrical spar!:.
Cavallo in 1797 and Ronaldo in 1810
tried transmitting intelligence over long
circuits by using impulses attained from
the discharge of Leyden jars, which
proved a failure. In the year 1808 Som-
mering began experimenting with the
voltaic pile, and constructed a machine
consisting of a series of voltameters, in
which water was decomposed by tho gal¬
vanic current. He proposed to give sig¬
nals by the escape of gas from tho glass
of the voltameter. The slowness
working this method was fatal to com¬
utility.
Dr. J. Redman Coxe, of Philadelphia,
this period, invented a system of
by tho decomposition of
salts, which was taken up later
practically worked out by Bain. In
1820 Oersted, of Copenhagen, discovered
system of electro-magnetism, and at¬
were at once made to utilize it for
His plan was afterward
out by Ritchie and publicly ex¬
by Alexander, of Edinburgh.

But in the early researches of
and Weber are still embodied all
principles of the mirror galvanometer

that the researches of all these cele¬
electricians were what called tc
attention of Professor Morse the idea
