SIR H. MAXWELL

The charge for telegrams between Germany and England is fixed, not at a rate per hundred words, but at a rate per word, and the basis of the charge is 20 centimes. For the sum of 20 centimes there is collected in Germany the nearest convenient equivalent in German money, namely, 15 pfennige, and in England the nearest convenient equivalent in English money, namely, 2d. It is not in the power of the Postmaster General to alter the monetary systems of Germany and England so as to make it possible to collect in both countries the exact equivalent of 20 centimes.
