The Russian-American Telegraph Company, otherwise known as the \"Western union Extension,\" was organised at New York in the summer of 1864. The idea of a line from America to Europe, by way of Bering Strait, had existed for many years in the minds of several prominent telegraphers, and had been proposed by Perry McD. Collins, as early...
