One of the great technical achievements that revolutionized the idea of time and space, opening a new era in the history of communication, is telegraphy. It is based on the transmission of electrical signals through a cable over long distances, allowing people to communicate instantly. The telegraph spread very quickly and a network of wires stretched around the world.

In 1837, the American painter and physicist Samuel Morse invented the first electromagnetic device for telegraphy, patented in 1840. To send messages by wire, Morse developed in 1838 a simple code of dots and dashes, which represented the letters of the alphabet, known as "Morse code ".

Both Morse code and the telegraph machine were improved over time, with the telegraph becoming the most widespread system of communication and information transmission for more than a century, until the advent of the Internet. The telegraph system consisted of a series of stations repeaters along the transmission line route. Each station had an operator who received and transmitted messages by telegraph. The Morse machine transmitted about 25 words per minute, which were recorded in code on a paper tape. The operator in charge of transmitting the message would decode it and write it on paper using a special typewriter.

In Bessarabia, the telegraph entered in 1860: on April 8, the Bender telegraph station began its activity, and on April 24, the one in Chisinau, following the construction of the first Odesa-Chisinau-Leova telegraph line. Currently, telegraph services have been discontinued. The only ones who still use coded communication are radio amateurs.

The Morse telegraph machine shown comes from the Osinoostrovsky electrotechnical plant, Soviet Union, and dates back to 1934. The exhibit was restored by Mihail Culașco.

L'impact du fleau de la peste dans revolution des relations commerciales de l'Empire Russe avec la Principaute de Moldavie (1812-1831)

Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. VI [XXI], nr. 2, Istorie. Muzeologie

L’évolution des relations commerciales de l’Empire Russe avec la Principauté de Moldavie a été influencée d’un certain nombre de facteurs objectifs et subjectifs, internes et externes qui sont realisés par diverses formes et intensité. Le problème, c’est que ces facteurs ont influencé le progrés ou même le régres des processus de la vie économique de l’Empire Russe et de la Principauté de Moldavie pendant le premier tiers du XIX- ième siècle.

Parfois le commerce bilatéral a été influencé de diverses maladies et épidémies qui ont mis en péril la vie et la santé des habitants et même ont imposé les états d’établir des actes normatifs pour protéger ses frontières.

La limite supérieure chronologique (1812) désigne une nouvelle étape dans le développement des relations com- merciales de l’Empire Russe avec la Principauté de Moldavie qui a une tangente directe avec l’annexion du terri- toire d’entre le Pruth et Dniestr et les premières attestations du fléau de la peste dans les Principautés Roumaines, l’Empire Otoman, l’Empire Autrichien, même les goubernies voisines et qui ont imposé l’administration impériale russe à établir un plan stratégique pour la protection des frontières d’Ouest d’Empire.

La limite inférieure chronologique (1831) confirme les dernières vagues de peste attestés dans la Principauté de Moldavie, la supréssion du cordon sanitaire – douanier au Dniestr et l’unification douanière de la Bessarabie avec l’Empire Russe. Donc, les restrictions établies par l’administration impériale russe pour la protection des frontières de peste, ont conditionné la fermeture des frontières d’Ouest de la Bessarabie, enregistrant la diminussion de l’échange des marchandises et une transformation d’ordre sociale, politique et économique.
