THE AMERICAN AND ORIENTAL LINE,
FOR BOSTON & NEW YORK,
all the devices for enabling travellers and wanderers on land or sea to know where they are on the surface of the globa, are based upon the more or less complete solution of this problem. If it had not. long ago been partially solved, the nighty system of commerce which has enriched the whole world, and brought dietans iunda
into safe and easy communication with each other would have been impossible.
It is now proposed to employ wireles telegraphy to transmit a standard.bour al over the earth. This, if practicable, will ba nearly perfection itself. M. Bouquet de la Grye suggests that the lone peak of Tenoriffe, in the Canary Islands, which has an altitude of 12,000 feet, would-be s good place to establish the proposed sigrial station for the whole world." He calculatea that with proper electric energy etheric- waras could be sent from the Peak of Teneriffe radiating in every direction and converging together at the Antipodes. Thus they would cover the entire globe, and ouse every day ships atesa, o matter were they might be, would receivaat pratically the camp moment, a signal an nouncing the hour at Teneriffe. Ticir captains would then possess absolute knowledge of their location, independent of clouds interfering with stellar observa tions, and independent also of the trascura- cies of chronometers,
