TELEGRAPHY.
An Astonishing Invention that
Threatens thWorje System.
An invention haa recently been per
fected at Philadelphia that bids fair
to revolutionize all existing systems
of electrical communication, both
telegraphic and telephonic. The se
cret of it has been carefully guarded
by the inventors, and by the small
company of large capitalists who con
trol it while it was being fully covered
by patents, both American and for
eign. Now that all is secure, it is to
be suddenly sprung upon thepublic
by an exhibition, as one of the gigan
tic scientific surprises of the country.
To state in brief what it is, it is noth
ing less ttian makinc telecraphv as
simple, rapid, and easily within the
command of everybody as is the oper
ating of the caligraph or type-writer.
knecting what is claimed for it, it
will be the means of greatly reducing
the cost of telegraphy, of enabling
the opening of some 40,000 new tele
graph stations in the railroad and ex
press offices throughout the United
States where there have hitherto been
none, and of takinc the place sener-
ally of the telephone. Any person
v. ho can nick out a word on the kevs
of a. type-writer can transmit a mes
sage by the Hathaway system accur
ately and with rapidity, only restricted
by the Speed of the picking; while, as
forreeeivinffinessajres.tbeinstrunient
does that automatically, whether
there is anybody superintending its
operation or not." There was a private
exhibition of the system to-day at
the company's offices. No. 327 Wal
nut btreet, the result attained at
which seemed to fully sustain all that
is claimed for this most remarkable
invention.
The instrument used is both a
transmitter and a receiver. The two
instruments used in this exhibition
were connected by about 109 miles of
wire coiled about the offices. Each ap
peared in its frofit part to be simply
an ordinary type-writer, with the let
terst numerals, etc., on raised keys.
Behind this rises a small column,
with blank paper wrapped around it
and moved up line by line, as re
quired by a simple device. Inside
that column is a small hammer that
strikes outwardly, so as to, whenever
a key is touched, press the paper
against the periphery of a horizontal
wheel that lies between the key -board
and the column. On that periphery,
in high relief, are the letters of the
alphabet, numerals, and points for
punctuation. The wheel spins around
with lightning-like rapidity as the
keys are successively touched by an
expert. When it has to retrocede in
the alphabetical order it flies back to
a fixed point, as does the wheel of a
gold and stock indicator, but much
mora swiftly. All the delicate and
intricate electrical attachments neces
sary are below, and, when under
stood, are much less complicated
than they seem, their apparent com
plication being caused bv their mul
tiplicity. A separate wire leads from
each key to a single common wire.
and each of those key-connected wires
serves cither for transmission or re
ception of messages. .The sending or
receiving of a particular letter or
figure is governed by the strength of
current required for just that indivi
dual one, and for no other. It seems
very strange that all those various
impulses should be flashed along a
wire even in opposite directions at
the same time without jostling each
other or getting mixed up, but they
do. Many messages were sent and
received in to-day's tesis by non-experts
at a speed of from 40 to 50
words per minute with greater ac
curacy than is usually shown by ex
pert Morse "sound" operators," and
that speed, it is affirmed, could
be very greatly increased. A notice
able and valuable feature of the sys
tem is tiat it prints clearly in the
sight of the person transmitting a
message, just what is being sent to
the leceivor, so that errors are avoid
ed, or if committed are readily cor
rected. The messages sent over a
wire by this instrument cannot be
read by sound, bo that it is much
more favorable to the privacy often
desirable in business than either the
Morse svstem or the telephone. In
asmuch as tho Hathaway instrument
can be adjusted to any svstem of wire
communication and will work to as
great distances as" is required in tele
graphy, it will be of inestimable
value to railroad and express com
panies, bankers, brokers, merchants,
and the general public. There are
no formidable complications in its
construction, and expert electricians
who have examined it, pronounce it,
one of the most wonderful achieve
ments of the age. Should it only do.
half what is claimed for it, and that it
shows it can do, it would precthally
revol utionize telegraphy .Baltimore

Poetry oriothin.
"Spe here," said a citizen of St
Louis to the proprietor of a bookstore
"vnn'H hnvft tn tnbf thft hrvrdr harV.
I asked you to give me a volume ot
poetry to put on the parlor table, but
every" durnea word in thi3 book is

"Why, man. alive, that was written

A Eemlnlscenco of Ellas Howe.
At the outbreak of the rebellion,
when he was a millionaire, he en
listed as a private to show his patriot
ism and independence. Money grew
scarce, and his regiment, which was
sent south, was left unpaid for three
months. At the end of that time
Howe, in his private's uniform, one
day entered the office of the Quarter
master and asked when the soldiers
of the regiment were to be paid.
"I don't know," replied the Quar
termaster. "Well, how much is owed them?"
blandly asked the private.
"What is that to you?" said the
storekeeper with a look of surprise.
"Gh, nothing," replied Howe,
nonchalantly; "only if you figure out
the amount I'll give you my check for
the w.hole business."
"Who are you?" gasped the
Quartermaster.
"Eiias Howe; and my check is
good for the pay of the entire army."
The Quatermaster made out the
bills, and Howe gave him his check
for three months' pay for his regi
ment. The Government afterwards
reimbursed him. Baltimore Herald.
