Tum Chinese government, it; is said,: proposes now to retaliate upon us j. for' the persecutions to which the Celestials have been subjected in this country.; Nothing less than an Imperial Prbeja-j matijoa is being circulated through -the - country, requiring that on or before the 7 fifteenth day of the fifth moon of the present year (May 15) all sufoectsjlof the Tai Tssing Empire (China) now:re siding in the United States of America return home, and instructing them tliat upon application to Uieir consuls free transportation wiU be. provided from any part of the cnited States to ny part of the Chinese empire, except ,the' provinces of Tuong Tung, whose citi sens, because of superior numbers, 'jare required to pay half fare. This procla mation, which we suppose da a docu ment as big as all .out-of-doors and iced as a bouse afire, embodies no threats, but intimates broadly, it is reported, that speedy. retaliation is to be hadfbu: the American export trade and Ameri can residents in China for the outrages . on Cninese that we have permitted, f If the report be true there will be serious1 business for us. The export trade 'ji--ferred to is woVth $80,000,000 annu-; ally and there are 9,000 Americans! in China to be exposed to the horrors of Imperial persecution. We could bf courtp enforce terms eventually, ut : there would be a frightful murder! of innooentii and. a very erious in juryl'to trade before we could do so. , We theifip4 fore hope the story of the proclamation: is a hoax. There are 80,000 Chinamen nthif country. We have frequently seen t mentioned that a ;Mr. i Clemmonf, a . North Caro linian, jtlaiutcd to: have invented 2 the telegraph : apd we, have always bad a curiosity to know something more about the matter. ;Uur curiosity has been gratified.' Elsewhere is to be found a statement by M.? ClemmOns" hinwelf, jtnd there is not only nothing in' his claim but Mr. Clemmons is so far from being the inventoror discoverer of the electro-magnetic telegraph that he really falls to indicate that he has I or ever hail the remotest notion of what the difficul ties were; that stood for sixty years in the way; of the successful working o the system.. Wo are fconry that this is so, for it W0UI4 nave gratified Us in several ways had 'the claim set tip for lMr. Clemmonq proved to be substantial. Mr. Clemmons, who waB just learning but of books something about electricity, in 183St oonceived the notion that it might be applied to telegraphic -uses Why, bless us! "in 1774 an electric; tel egraph was establisbed at Geneva Oy tesage.;''. '"In England, Ronalds had a )ine of ight miles on which tlie wire was suspended from poles and insulated by silken; strings; and in 1796, Sslva, in, Spain, worked a line, by static elec trioity.twentysix miles long." "Soem- cring, f in, w,- inveniea a teiegrspn (using. tne voltaic pile); and continuea it for several years in ftfunich." And indeed, there was' no end to electric telgraplw. i i ; y , IFor sixty years before Mr, Clemmons, the young Btudent: who was just learn ing in bbnks that electricity would Ipass along a wire, had conceived the notion' that that pbysioal phenomenon might be util ized, investigators and scientific men in everyicontrj were trying! to work the idea out 'into practical, feasible fact. Little by little these scientific men dis covered the means to make it feasible. I In 1$20 Arago.Hn France; discovered that' a sewing' needle sun-bunded by a coil; of wire through which a voltaic cirrenta8 fpaesed became magnetic, abdStigeon int 1824 produeed the electro-magnet, an iron wire wrapped with copper wire,; whieh became s mag net while thei current flowed and lost its niagnetism Vrhenf it ceased. This was at first deemed the end Of "the difficulty, biatj it was found thai sbmething still was lacking. I The electromagnet would nptfacttong,f distances. In 1826, however, i nian undertookrihe investi gation of thia branoh of science and he overcame .all difficulties. : He' was an AmerioanJ and one whose name is justly held in.'Uie highest regard. : We refer to Prbf Henry, who afterwards,; under freat pressure, was induced to abandon is' work as a student of science ! and take ebaree ef the Smithsonian institute In 1826.: no realised the difficulties in the, way f making the telegraph work, grappled - with ; them, - discovered fwhat was necessary and gave the world the electro-magnotic telegraph!. -1 I ' If Infill; rof.J Henry ,1.; after 'giving his discoveries to thb world and pointing but that he had overcome all difficulty, ejtabliisbid 9 first etectro-ma;oetio ielegrapBLlthit ever: existed.' I4 1835 It I had another af Princeton, as .Dr. Hogg, of this city, who was a student ; there at ihe time, ' mentioned to, ttf smne months ago, Henad finished the! work.' Tho yeoth-maguetie telegraph;' 'was then -f an accomplished r fact.-' Having demonstrated the - practicability J and feasibiliti(fof it, bbleft itffor those who ebuld proqnre the' means ' to apply it to te commercial uses of mankind. ) ' t To: quote from an address delivered at Princeton in Jene, 1885; on the oc-K . casibn of his leath, . from ' which, indeed, most of the facts ; here 'stated are com pUedfalUioigh : we knew them through Prof Henry iimself in boyhood: 'Come wim me now into a xeiegrapo omce ana lt us see- What we find there, if the line be 4 short onie yon . will see but. one of 'e spools fixed 'td! a- table,! &c., c. -Xow that instrument has noth ing about it indte than ws in Hpbry's Albany telegraph tn 1831; nor could it operate if t omitted ariy one' of the in veJwnsl?teither singly! or f together, which were then for the Ifirst time com bined, f It depends entirely on the dis coveries made by' Henry! before 1831." i Mr. Clemmons made no discovery whatever -and never saw an instrument used in telegraphing, so far as' appears. 'Tei ! years passed after j Henrys pub lications before Morse undertook to get up a company , tor there was then no de mand for a' telegraph. Eventually, by getting in Amos Kendall and other in fluential men about Washington, Morse succeeded ! in persuading Congress to make an appropriation for putting J up a telegraph line between Washington City andpBaltimore. Morse was not th inventor.-- He merely, used what Henry had given to the world freely and with out price ;ten: years before.
