A telegraph works by sending a series of electric pulses through a long wire, to another telegraph device which then interprets the pulses into a series of clicking sounds. Depending on how long the lengths of the clicks are, there is an "alphabet" called Morse Code that the person on the other side of the telegraph can use to understand. The telegraph system was the first step to the development of the telephone.

The old fashioned telegraph system used lines similar to telephone lines but did not use speech. It was used to send messages from one place to another by using electrical on/off signals, similar to the dots and dashes used in the Morse Code.
A person who wanted to send a telegraph message would have to write it clearly - using block letters and numbers - onto a piece of paper called a "Telegraph Transmission Form" and had to take it by hand to a "Telegraph Office".
A person called a "Telegraph Operator" then had to read the form and tap-in each of the letters and numbers into a machine called a "Telegraph Machine". The signals made letters and numbers appear on a similar machine at a "Telegraph Office" in the town where the person lived who was to receive the message.
The machine at the "receiving station" actually printed out the letters and numbers onto a strip of paper just as they were sent out from the keyboard of the "transmitting station". The strips of paper were then pasted onto another sheet of paper, called a "Telegraph Reception Form" and that was hand-delivered to the person it was addressed-to.

If you mean a telex machine, it has a keyboard like a typewriter and also has a printer . If you know someone you want to send a message to has a similar telex machine, you can set up a telex call to their number, just like a telephone call but with no speech. Then you can type in your message and the the telex machine at the other end of the line will print it out.
The old fashioned Morse telegraph system used wires similar to telephone lines but did not use speech. Messages were sent from one place to another by using a series of short and long electrical on/off signals - called dots and dashes - in unique patterns which Morse invented to represent letters, numbers, spaces and other characters. This coding system soon became known as "The Morse Code".
Another answer
A Morse telegraph works by someone sending a series of long and short electric pulses through a long wire to another telegraph device by using using a version of the "alphabet" called Morse code. The receiving station interprets the pulses into a series of clicking sounds and/or marks on a strip of paper. By using the same Morse code the person at the receiving end of the telegraph can understand the message by reading how long the lengths of the clicks or marks are. The telegraph system was the first step to the development of the telephone.
Originally, telegraph messages were sent manually using Morse Code pulses.
Beginning in the 1920s they were sent automatically using Teletype machines in 5 bit BAUDOT code.
Beginning in the 1950s they were sent automatically using Teletype machines in 7 bit ASCII code.
Now they are sent electronically.
The telegraph is operated by this machine kinda like the Morse code it doesn't receive messages though
its used for giving and receiving messages from other people
Electronic signals traveled over wires to form dots and dashes. The Morse Code would be translated back into English.
telegraph is working in which power
Because it is popular
Electric Telegraph Company ended in 1855.
Electric Telegraph Company was created in 1846.
its used for giving and receiving messages from other people
Samuel Morse invented the electric telegraph.
telegraph
well the guy that made this thingy wanted to build something so he did and that is why there was an electric telegraph invented.
The non-electric telegraph was invented by Claude Chappe in 1794. This system was visual and used semaphore, a flag-based alphabet, and depended on a line of sight for communication. The optical telegraph was replaced by the electric telegraph.
To spend messages back and forth electronically by cutting an electric signal like Morse code
The computer is successfully outdated the electric telegraph that many people didn't know. An electric telegraph is one of communication devices that were invented in 1794 by Claude Chappe but the first successful telegraph is on 1830s and 1840s by Samuel Morse and other inventors.
