What Has Been Accomplished by the Inter- national Telegraphic Conference. ‘The Convention Concludes Its Labors—The Coun- tries Ropresented at the Sitting—Manage- ment of the Atlantic Cables—Regula- tion for War Times—The Inter- ests of the United States. Roms, Italy, Jan, 15, 1872. - The Telegraphic Congress bas at last been brought toaclose, Afcer a protracted session of more than Six weeks the delegates were enabled yesterday to Diace their signatures to the revised treaty. It may be convenient to repeat that the present Congress was held im pursuance with provisions of the International Telegraph ‘Treaty, signed at Paris May 17, 1865, That treaty came tn force on January 1, 1866, and secured to the whole of Europe the advantage of cheap and unl- form telegraph correspondence, without any dis- tanction whatsoever, either in regard to nationality, language or difference in monetary regulations. The most pertect unity In the management of tele- graphs as well as in the schedule of charges has thus been obtained for the whole Continent of Europe, The treaty referred to is a diplomatic document, and one of its provisions stipulates for TRIBNNIAL MEETINGS, to which delegates are to ve appointed by all the contracting powers for purposes of consulting either on necessary changes, and revising or modi- fying, if required, existing regulations. The last Congress under those provisions was held three years ago at Vienna, the Austrian capital, and the next, it has been determined, will assemble in June or July, 1875, at St. Petersburg, THE COUNTRIES REPRESENTED AT ROME are enumerated in the following statement. The name of the delegate, it will be seen, is generally that of the chief oficer of the Telegraph Depart- ment in his own country:— Austria—Mr, Brunner de Wattenwill, Director of Telegraphs, Vienna, Peer ae E. D’Ary, Director of Telegraphs, eBth, Belgiom—Mr, J.

Louis Curcbod, ex-Director Gen- eral Telegraphs, Berne. Turkey—Izzet Effendi, Inspector General, Con- stantinople; Yanco Effendi, secretary Ministry, Constantinople. THE MEETINGS ‘were heid under the presidency of M. D’Amico, the Italian Direector General of Telegraphs, but owing toan accident that gentieman was imcapacitated for a time, and the chair, consequently, was taken by Mr. Brunner, the Austrian Delegate, during whe last few weeks. INDEPENDENT OF THE FOREGOING COUNTRIES Great Britain furnished a large contingent of members of various boards of submarine cable com- panies, while Mr. Cyrus W. Field attended in his capacity a8 director of the New York, New- foundland and = =London Telegraph Com- pany of New York, and M. Louis Curchod, the ex-director of Swiss Telegrapns, represented the interests of the Atlantic Vable Companies, e., both the Angio-American and the French Cable, The Chairman of the submarine Telegraph Com- pany connecting England ana France and Bel- gium was present, with Mr. Clare, tne Secretary of the company, Sir James Anderson, wei known in bis connection with the Great Eastern steamship, represented te interests of the Falmouth-Givraltar Company. IN ADDITION TO THESE gentlemen there was an array of lawyers ana ac- countants watching the interests of various com. panies connecting British India, China and Aus- tralia; but the management In the conterence was confided to Messrs, Jules Despecber and Lewis Wells, both geatiemen being familiar with foreign lapguages. THE MEDITERRANDAN LINES, the Board of which locates in England, were repre- sented by Lora Willlam Hay, algo Colonel Glover and Mr. Alfrea Eggington, one of the inspectors. ‘The attendance of delegates from these companies Was essential, a8 most of their cables counect with land limes belonging to various governmenis, though few only of the private companies form part and parcel Of the general telegraph family, created in virtue of the international treaty, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, deeply interested 4s they are iu all matters apper- taining to telegraphic communications, are entitied vo atull account of all the doings of the Congress at Rome. But before referring to those doings 1 will give a detailed account of all that portion of tne conference which immediately concerns America with reference to the management of the Atlantic cable. Immediately alter tbe opening of this Congress THE QUESTION OF NEUTRALIZING SUBMARINE CABLES was brought up. Tne delegate irom Norway, Mr, Melson, introduced the subject as eariy as Decem- ber 4, bul the proposition Was unconditionally and almost unanimously voted down. ‘The interests of Norway make ic imperative that tne neutraitty of submarine Cables should pe observed in time of war as well as peace, otherwise that country might be en- Urely. isolated. A cuble across the North Sea con: nects Norway with Great Britain, while on tue other hana the Whole Scandinavian territo y is again de- pendent on submarine communications with tho Baltic provinces of Prussia and Kussia. A glance at the map developing the geographical position of Norway and Sweden iHlustrates at once the impor- tance of the question at issue, A PROEJCT EMANATING FROM THE UNITED STATES, Mr, Nielsen (delegate from Norway) reminded his colleagues of the fact tuat the government of the United States had taken the imitative in recom. menaug @ special convention Peecing for the protection of submarine telegraph lines, The ques. Hon, alihougn being one which required diplomatic action, was one of suiMcient importance to attrac tie special attention of this Convention, in order to pave the way for ulterior action when the necessity of making an inter- national treaty would become more apparent, The fi teed emanating from the government at Washington Might require a few modilications, and he (Mr, Nielsen) moved to reier the question for exaimiuation t a specialcommittee. The President of the Convention opposed the proposition, but Mr. Nielsen rejoices _that, although the members of ihe present Congress may not be empowered to take action im the matter, At seems, Nevertheless, incontestuvie that, morally speaking, they are competent to examine ‘the ques- Hou, to lnquire What form might appear most con- venient to accomplisn a soiution, and tually to ens abie each delegate to present to his government tue preg atl ar on ae je bY an assemviy of gentie- men eminently qualiiied to express an Re eamyect. Pp Opimion on VIEWS PRO AND CON. Géneral Lueders (Russian) considered the ques. tion a8 one involving serious interests With Which ihe members of tne Couvention nad uo rignt to meddle, Strange to aay, the Swedish meinber, Brandstrom, supported the views expressed by the gentiemen from Russia, while the delegate Irom Belgium, Mr. Vinchent, asserted that the adoption of the Norwegian proposition Involved @ danger which tended to give | the power to one nation of intertering with internal arrangements of wnoiner; that It tivoived political considerations which It did not beloove the Vonven- Uon to admit into their deliverations. ‘The Count Torntell, canal in behait of Italy, recommended the withdrawal of the inmotion, and Mr. Nieisea, seeing himself outvoted, had to comply with tne suggestion, however reluctant, OYRUS W.

A LETTER FROM PROFESSOR MORSE. Mr, Curchod, after reading the speech of Mr, Field (1 have already seat you a copy of the sam in in) whicn Lenciose herewith, communi- cated the contents of aletter received by Mr. Field from Pro! Samuel F. B. Morse, (aved New York, December 4, 1871, Warmly supporting the idea that the Telegraphic Congress should express, by & distinct vote, the desire tuat im war, as in peace, “telegraphy ashore and in the waters” should be considered “sacred,” and that it should be pro- tected “by unanimous consent as inviolaie and secure against damage.” SHALL SUBMARINE CABLES BB PROTECTED? lalvano, @ gentleman attached to the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, thacked Mr. Field tor the flattering manner in which he had alluded to He expresses a regret that the prerent Con- be «considered as competent tion relative to the pro- nor the having consulted ie Was pleased to ant governments a declaration of the sentimenis which the Congress entertained upon the subject. Mr, Nielsen (Norway) expressed himself warmly in tavor o1 the measure, Mr. id, he said, had come across the Atlantic pul ly to make known Baas of Sie people A Rad io and no nt would deny they werd ail a on tne question, Since Mr, Field merely an expression of sentiment, he pro- posed that the Convention should comply therewith. case a majority of members remained unwill to support is proposition, he suggest th another day should be appointed to uss tl matter now before them. Ali the members took part in discussing the mo- tion of Mr, Nielsen, The delegate of the German empire, Colonel Meydam, desired that the question should not be discussed in their regular Cia but should be referred to @ 8 session, Mr. Vinchent, Belgium, considers that 16 mignt not be convenient to make it appear as the government at Washington needed the sup- port of the delegates here assembied to pro- mote the proposition imitiated by the United States government. If they, the delegates, expressea an opinion, their opinion might be directly opposed to those entertained by their respective governments, He preferred, therefore, that the suoject maver before them should not be discussed or form part of their deliberations, The deiegate repre- senting the British Post Office, Mr. A, Chamore, came finally to the rescue, and, alter @ deal of opposition, Mr. Nielsen’s motion prevailed, It was resolved that the did cussion, 80 far as taken place, should be recorded. Upwards of forty speeches were made on the sub- ject, and finally eleven votes were given, with the object of reporting in favor of Mr. Field’s proposi- tion, while the lollowing members o/ the delegation abstained from particinatug tb the vote—viz., Ger- Many, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Servia, Switzerland, Turkey. POSITION OF THE ITALIAN GOVERNMENT, But, as stated above, there is every reason to be- eve that even those who were unwilling to record their vote are favorably disposed towards the project. M. Visconti-Venosta, the Lialian Minister of Foreign Affairs, was present yesterday at the Capilol when the treaty was signed. Taking leave from the Ep teal in ashort speech, he mentioned, among other matters, ‘that the question respecting the rotection of submarine telegraph lines would receive his warmest support. The Minister made the announcement thata circular note would be presented vy the Italian government to the European Powers inviting their co-operation. The [peice 1g that we shall shortly hear of another International Congress, called for the purpose of discussing the measure initiated more than two years ago by the Department of State at Washing- ton, and, { have no doubt, that a mutually satisiac- tory treaty will shorily be arranged. THE INTEREST OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE CON-, VENTION, So far, then, the United States had an important imvwerest in the proceedings which have just come to aciose. The labors of the Congress have been arduous and prolonged; yet to look at the treaty it would occur to the uninitiated that little or no work Was accomplished dur: the six weeks the members were in session. In fact no radical changes were made except those in favor of cipher messazes. Hitherto that class of messages was greatly re- stricted, while many countries—notably Prussia— were exceedingly iliberal in regard to their trans- mission. The jollowing paragraph has been ad- mitted in the new treaty :— REGARDING PARTICULAR MESSAGES. Private messages may be exchanged in secret lan, tween any two countries where that mode of correspor ™Sfnone couatricn aot admittin messages in secret language, countries Im in elther on arrival or departure, are bound. to periait the wage: ag in Cromitt, excepting cases provided against in sec- Semaphoric messages may be composed in ordinary lan- age ined in the country wnere the message haa to ctroa- or they may namitted iu the signals, under Uh rales of the {‘niversat Commercial (Sadana Mi jos written in ordin: language must be cot od ins "tanner ‘eaully understoud is elther oue of U ving languages used within the territories of the contract Powers or in Latin. Each country has a right to designate whiah of the lauguages used in its territory 1s proper for tele- graphic correspondence. ¢ following descriptions are considered as messages written in secret lanzuage :— 1, Those where the entire text 14 composed of cyper or be- lence secret ‘2. Those containing only series or groups of cypher or ot words, the significance of which is unknown to the officers of the sending station. 8. Messages contatuing passages written in a language ad- mitted to be incomprehensible to the o'ticers transmitting the correspondence ; or if composed of words not comprised im any of the living languages aforementioned, THE ONLY CHANGES. Except the foregoing stipulations, as already men- tioned, no material changes have been made in the Tules and regulations adopted by the treaty of 1865-69, As regards inland and international tariffs the changes are manifold; but, a8 may be assumed, they are all in favor of the public, as will be seen by a reference to the statement hereanto ap- pended. THE NEW TARIFF has not yet been printed. ‘The treaty itself being in writing cannot be got at. They have allowed me to read it, but no more. The printed minutes leave matters so donbtfal that I cannot finish my letter till the information ts complete. Hope to get it to- morrow.

New Customs Roegulations in the Usited States of Colombia—Increased Rates of Duty—How Merchants Are Trapped--- What Must Be Done to Avoid Imposi- tion. Becent changes in the customs regulations of Columbia are of such important and complicated a nature as to call for strict attention on the part of merchants doing business with those States, The changes have been made, but what end they sub- serve, unless to impose on shippers who may be ignorant thereof, is dificult to divine. Al- though the new regulations came into force very recently several thousand dollars have already been lost by New York merchants under the rules adopted. in accordance with these rules if @ mer- chant ships vo Colombia one case containing five dollars’ worth of goods sabject to a duty (ander the ‘old law) of sav twenty per cent’ and five bundred dollars’ worth of goods subject to duty of say five per cent, he must pay the highest rate on the whole, while at the same time a system of fines has been imposed for almost every conceivable breach of the regulations, Tho following are the new regulations:— ‘ “If @ package contains merchandise subject to different duues the whole package must pay the highest rate corresponding with the merchandise contained,” “Lt the weight as ascertainea at the Custom House exceeds that expressed in the invoice duties must be paid by the former; and if the excess 1s five per cent or more a fe of ten per cent is imposed.” “Duties are paid by the weight of the invoice, if It is more than that ascertained at the Custom House.” “If the cousular invoice does not express the gross weight and the contents of each package the juties are liquidated at forty-five cents per kilo- gramme ana ten per cent fine.”” “If the consular invoice 1s wanting in any of the necessary data, as will be fully specified in this cir- cular, the goods will be charged with ten per cent “The contents of each pac must be ex; in the Consular luvoice ‘au tollows:--Name, quantity and texture of each manufactured article, Gonse- quently it 1s not sufficient to say cotton, wine, per, &c., because printed cottons pay duty forty- ve cents per Kilogramme and white cottons, like bogotanas, bramantes, &c., pay only twenty cents. Red wines not in cases pay only five cents per kilogramme, whue other kinds pay twenty cents.
