Facility and speed in communication become every day of more and more importance. The present telegraph companies have created wants which they by no means supply. Public bodies, manu facturers , and merchants are becoming more and more alive to the necessity of having their own private telegraphs. This, for instance, the Queen's printers have found it greatly to their advantage to have telegraphic communication of their own between their printing establishment and the houses of parliament. The London Desk ha* •114 only its own electric communication botulism its own daces in the dock, but also be tween the dock-house in the City and the commercial Bale rooms in Mincing-lane. The police•stations throughout the City are now also placed in in.itautaneous communication with each other. Such important result, as these have been brought about rincipally by the perfection to which Professor e has brought his Universal Telegraph. This instrument is so simple in its construction that any person who can read and spell can be taught in half-an-hour to use it with certainty. With a few days practice a very considerable rapidity can be acquired in sending messages. Without such an instrument as this a trained establishment of clerks would be necessary to work the telegraph. By its aid the owner of the tele graph or any person of ordinary education can use it with scarcely any training. The universal telegraph consists of two parts or instruments, the telegraph itself and another called the communicator. The telegraph with all the ap paratus for working it is ountained in a small box, mach smaller than a lady's work-box. It has a handle like that of a barrel organ in front of it. On the upper surface there is a disc or clock face. This face instead of having the hours marked round its circumference has its thirty equal divisions on its outer edge marked by the letters at the alpha bet, three stops, and a cress. The inner row has the nine digits and zero repeated twice. There is • hand like the hour hand of the clock, which is made by the mechanism hereafter to be described to point to these letters, stops, or figures, at the will of the operator. Round this lettered disc are thirty keys, like those at an accordion, which can be depressed by the finger, one for each letter or sign. Such is the external ap pearance of the telegraph. It is not much larger than an ordinary ship s chronometer. The commu uicator is som eth ing like a watch, a little larger indeed, fixed on a stand, in a convenient 'tam for observing the dial ; it rests on a small 'gland, which contains the apparatus fur working an alarm bell. The face of the communicator has thirty divisions like the telegraphy with its double circle of letters and figures, and its moveable hand or index. The instrument is worked in the following man ner. We will say that there are two seta of them nutriments, OW at the Qessa'apeinters, the other in the House of Commons. A single wire is fasteued at the Printers' to the water pipes of the establishment, or else attached to a plate of metal buried in the earth, this wire is made to peas through both the telegraph and communicator at the printer's ; it is then carried through the air to the Houses of Parliament. There it passes through another telegraph and communicator, and is then buried in the earth or attached to some pipes which are in connexion with the ground. On the box which supports each of the communicators there is a pointer which can be turned by hand so as to point to either of two letters, A and T, on the right and left hand. When the instruments are nut in use both of these pointers should point to the letter A. Supposing, now, a message is to be sent. All you have to do is to turn the handle of one of the telegraphs ; the alarms at both stations are instantly sounded. This calls the attention of the clerk or operator at the other station. He then re chote: by turning the handle of his telegraph, when alarnms are sounded for a second time. Now, both sender and receiver turn the pointer at the base of their communicators to the T. Before sending the message, the pointers of all four in struments should stand at the cross marked on the upper portions of their dials. If they do not, the operators have a simple means for setting them right. This setting being made if necessary, the sender spells out his message by touching or de pressing each key of his telegraph with his left hand, which stands opposite to the letters to be spelt in succession while he steadily turns the handle of his instrument with his right hand. He will then see the hand of his oommuuicator turn in succession to each of these letters, and pause until he 1 I depresses the next letter. The index of the communi cator of the receiver of the message moves in the same way, and he also spells the word he receives. The word finished, the sender depresses the key op- I posite his cross and the communicator shows t he receiver that a word is spelt. He acknowleges the receipt of it, and that he understands it by turning the handle of his telegraph and depressing the key opposite to the cross, so as to make the hands of both communicators pass through a com plete revolution. If any letter or sign is to be repeated in succession in spelling a word, it is 11=to depress for an instant an adjacent then to depress that opposite the letter to be repeated before the indices or hands of the in struments have pointed to the letter. This lathe simple method of using the instrument. It possesses this great advantage for private pur posesthat it requires no galvanic apparatus, with cor rosive acids, and requiring great skill in its successful preparation for use. There are no fumes to be avoided, no trouble and risk in amalgamating plates. A simple coil apparatus and a magnet enclosed in the telegraph box do all the work of the electric arid, without risk of getting out of order or being deranged. As the principles of electric telegraphy are now becoming so popular, some of our readers may be interested in knowing something of the mode of operation of this beautiful instrument of Professor Wheatstone. When the handle of one of the telegraphs is turned, it causes an axis in the instrument to revolve. Attached to this axis are two equal arms ; each of these arms has suspended or fixed perpendicularly to its extremity a bundle of soft iron wire. Round each of these bundles or cores of soft iron a considerable quantity of fine insulated wire is wound like a silk or thread round • bobbin. The wire round these two bobbins is continuous. These two bobbins, therefore, turn round with every revolution of the axis to which they are attached. At every revolution the cores of both these bobbins pass over the poles of a horse shoe permanent magnet. Every time they paps over the poles of the magnet the core of the bobbin passing over is magnetised ; the magnetism induces or sets up a current of electricity through the wire of the bobbin. In this way, by simply turning the handle of the machine opposite, currents or pulses of electricity are sent through the wires of the bobbins by the momentary action of the poles of the magnet. When the indices at the base of the two communicators are set at A, the currents of electricity so set up pass through the alarum of i the sender to that of the receiver and re the earth. A most ingenious m= • and electro-maguetic arrangement seln tie works of both alarums in motion, without requiring.any clock-work to be wound up, and so constructed that by no jar or accidental motion of the alarm can it be sounded, and it never rings without the . passage of current, of electricity. When the pointer 16 turned to T, the communi eaten are put in connexion with the telegraph. The eommunicators have each an electromagnetic ' apparatus, which oonsists of two permanently mag entas needles fixed to as axis, and lying parallel between two bobbins of insulated wire with soft iron cores. The armatures of these cores are so arranged that when a current of electricity passes through the wire of the bobbins their armatures attract two of the poles or extremities of the mag netic' needles and repel the other two • the e ff ect of the two attractions and two repul sions of the needles being to rotate the axis to which they are fined. This axis communicates by an escapement wheel a step by step motion to the hand of the communicator instrument for every current of electricity sent through the wire of its bobbins. We will now suppose the instruments with all their indicators pointing to the cross. The handle of ass of the telegraphs is turned, for every revolu .ldon of the handle the magnet in the telegraph sets Is • current in the bobbins within the telegraph, bit .these currents aIL. pais by a short circuit through the instrument and the earth ; we now depreas a key opposite to some letter, the depression of this key alters the electrical circuit, and all the currents are now sent through the telegraph wire, , both communicators, and the earth. For every current transmitted—these currents being in son cession in different directions—the hand of the _ telegraph of the sender, and the bands of both columunicatons, are made to advance step by step till the letter opposite the depressed key is arrived at. The instant this letter is realhed, the mechanism of the telegraph alters the circuit, the current no longer peeves through the telegraph wire and the communicators, but is carried off through the shorter circuit. Another key is now depressed by the soder, a beautiful piece of mechanism causes the depression of this key to elevate the key last depressed, puts the in strument in circuit with the wire and the indica lore, the hands move on step by step till the letter opposite the depressed key is reached, when the circuit is again altered, and the hands stand still till another key is depressed, and so on for the whole message. Those who have been used for some time to this instrument, and have become gni& both in sending and receiving • message, have been enabled to transmit 100 letters per minute. We have been thus minute in our description of this universal telegraph, because we feel certain it will play an important part in the popularisation of the wee of telegraphy. It was used by the Emperor Napoleon at Solferino, and will shortly be used on the railways of Australia. The extent to which the application of telegraphy is likely to be carried out has rendered prominent another want. Not only an instrument for com municating messages, but a private road through which they may be sent. This has induced the formation of a company, now applying for an set of parliament for their incorporation under the name of the Universal Private Telegraph Company. Professor Wheatstone has discovered that for mods ratedistauces, say for twenty miles, his electric road only requires a copper wire about the thickness of an atduary piece of cotton thread. Thirty such wires, each covered with • thin coating of india rubber and linen, can be combined into • cable about the thickness of the little finger. Thus thirty private electric rose, perfectly insulated front each other, can be scarred u sae reps, sot very much thicker than the wires now used for electric ways along the sides of our railways. This marks another great stride in telegraphy—the sub stitution of indisrublrer for gutta pe eb. as an in sulator. For this we are indebted to the energy, skill, and perseverance of Messrs. Silver and Co., who have succeeded in demonstrating to the best telegraphists that they can manufacture an 'ladle rubber insulation for wires which shall make na independent of the constant failure of gutta percha as an insulator. With gotta percha the insulation of this cable of thirty small wires would have been impossible. The heat to which the cable must be subject even in our summer as it passes over our house-tops would melt the gutta pelotas and destroy the insulation. The insulation of indiarubber is not only superior to gutta percha, but it resists the hest which would entirely molt the latter. The Universal Telegraph Company propose to connect all parte of London and other great towns by a system of triangulation. The town will be divided into a series of equal triangles, the side of each being a mile in length. Each point of the triangle will be united to another by one of these cables containing thirty or sixty insulated wires. These cables will be supported by posts on the tops of houses or other large buildings, 200 feet apart. To prevent the cable from injury from stretch ing, it will be suspended from two strong iron wires passing from post to post. At each of the posts, ns well as the angular stations at the extre mities of the mile cf rope or cable, each separate wire will pass through little numbered canals of ebonite. If any accident happens to any particular wire, it can be discovered where the fault lies by testing from post to poet. The wires being num bered and registered, the private person wishing to rent a wire can have it conveyed to his two stations from the poet nearest to them. Tbat this system is likely to meet with immediate adoption in many in stance; we have no doubt. Between thirty and forty firms and public bodies in Glasgow have already made application to the company for the rent of wires. The city police stations in London will use the wires of the company instead of their own temporary one as soon as it is established. Mr. Renter, so well known in connexion with tele rains, has already united his private offices in Finsbury-square with his city offices. No doubt a great variety of public offices as well as private persons will gladly avail themselves of this mode of obtaining private telegraphic communication. We believe the company propose to rent their wires at the rate of four pounds per mile for a year, undertaking to keep the wires in order, and at all times to ensure telegraphic com munication. The hirer of the wire may use any instrument he pleases. If he wishes it, however, they will let him one of Professor Wheatstone's Universal Telegraphs, Alarum, and Indicator for 61. a year, or a pair of them for 121. This includes keeping the instruments in per fect working order. Thus, furinstance, a merchant or manufacturer can have private telegraphic com munication between two stations a mile apart for 161. a year. The insulated cable being suspended front uncovered iron wires, and these wires being connected with the leads and iron pipes of the houses towhich their supporting poste are attached, lightning cannot pass through the insulated wire to the house in which it is introduced. The network of supporting wires will, in point of fact, act as a great system of lightning conductors, and ensure the safety of the houses over which they pass. That the system of the compound rope and the small conducting wires will answer, we saw demon strated by Mr. Holmes, the consulting engineer of the proposed company, at Mr. Reuter 's on Friday last. We also saw the successful application of the small ronductor to Mr. Wheatstone's Automatic Printing Telegraph. This telegraph is intended for the speedy transmission of messages through lines where economy of time in the use of the line is of great importance. The message to be sent is punched out in a series of dots on a strip or narrow ribbon of paper. The cypher used is so similar to that of the Morse system, which is now the uni versal telegraphic alphabet on the Continent and America, that a person conversant with the one can immediately read the other. The Morse alphabet represents every letter by a line or a dot, or the combination of these, not exceeding four for every letter. Wheatstone uses a dot on the upper part of the ribbon for Morse's line, and a dot below for Morse's dot. To punch these dots he uses a small instrument with three keys, which are depressed by the pressure of the finger. The ribbon of paper is introduced at the top of the instrument; every time one of the keys is depressed it pinches • hole through the ribbon, and moves it &space for ward • when the same or another key is depressed another hole is punched, and the paper again moved forward to receive another perforation. One key answers for Morse's line or dash, another for his dot, and the third or middle one is used for spacing. This spacing obviates a difficulty in the Morse system of telegraphing. The Morse system 1 is always used in connexion with a telegraphic instrument The difference between the printing of • lisle or a dot is determined by the time the finger rests on the key of the transmitting instrument To be a good telegraphist on the Morse system re quires an accurate perception of musical time, a perception of which many people are deficient. Besides this advantage, the slowness of the person using the punching apparatus of Wheatstone's automatic system does not cause a waste of the time of the telegraphic line. When the Molnar "P"fiedi°ut off. the ribbjil this ribbon forms, as it were, a ofiitinnOoll facq's pattern. This is now int r oduced into the trans mitting instrument. By turning a handle the per forated ribbon passes at a uniform rate through the instrument : as mice space comes through the centre of the holder, three springs attached to an axis in connexion with the handle rise up, only one of these three can rise through the paper, because there will only be one perforation presented at the same time. If a spring pass through one of the upper holes of the strip, a current of electricity is made by the mechanical arrangement attached to this spring to pass through the telegraph wire to a distant station ; if a spring passes through the lower hole an opposite current is produced ; featly, if the middle spring pass through an opening no current is sent. At the receiving station there is a recording or printing apparatus. A thin strip of paper is made by clock-work to pass through the printing ap paratus when a message is to be received. This apparatus has two series of electro-magnetic ap paratus similar to those used in the communicator of the universal instruments. They am so arranged, however, that the axes to which the permanent magnets are attached are moved, the one axis only for a current in one direction, and the other only for a current in the opposite direction. To each of these axes a small pen or style is attached. These styles when depressed each pass through a small hole in the bottom of a reservoir filled with Indian ink. These holes are so small that capillary attrac tion prevents the flow of the ink through them nelson it is carried by the depression of the style Now, the electro-magnets cause one of these styles to be depressed for a current in one direction, the other style for that in the opposite • the ribbon passing under the reservoir of ink by the motion of the clockwork has a dot made at top or bottom, according as a dot perforated through the top or bottom of the ribbon passes at the same time through the transmitting apparatus. Some idea of the speed with which this automatic printing telegraph can forward messages may be estimated when we state that a column of news paper print, such as that of a parliamentary debate, can be transmitted 200 miles in about 20 minutes. We are rejoised to see that Professor Wheatstone, who took such a distinguished position in the first introduction of the telegraph, still keeps foremost in the race of teiegraphie progress. AN INTERVIEW WITH PIO NONO. Mann Miss Brewer's new Travels.) The portraits of the Pope are in general like him : but his full, short, and broad countenance has, when men more nearly, ler expression of kindness, and considerably more of self-will and temper, than the por traits exhibit. The glance of the blue eye is lively, but not and is deficient in earnestness. The com aand physique generally indicate the best of health, good appet;te—and • good 000 k. The Pope oast his eye on • written paper which he held in his hand ; and, having inquired about my country and Once of residence, added. You have written somewhat!" Myself—Yes, your Holiness ; novels of domestic life ; more properly descriptions of life, but in the form of novels. The Pope—But you are a catholic? Myself—No, your Holiness, not • Roman catholic. The Pope—Then you must become one. There is no completeness ass oessequeoce out of the catholic church. Myself—Permit me, your Holiness, to ask a question. The Pops—Yea, sak Myself—l love with my whole heart our Lord and Meter, Jesse Christ. I believe in His divinity—in His redeeming Amoy for me and the whole world ; I will alone obey and urn Him. Will your Holiness not acknowledge as. as a Christian ? The Pope--Fora Christian 1 Most certainly ! But,— llyeaff—And as • member of the church of Christ? The Pope—Ye—s, in a certain sense ; but—but, then, people must acknowledge me true everything which this church says and enjoins. You ought not, in the meantime, to believe that the Pope sends to hell all who do not ac knowledge the infallibility of the catholic church. No, I believe that many persons of other creeds may be saved by living according to the truth which they acknowledge. believe so, most certainly. Myself—lt delights me infinitely to hear this from your Holiness. Because I have cherished the hope of finding in your Holiness a more righteous judge u regards these ques tions than in many other catholics, who say, " You are not a Christian ; you cannot be saved, if you do not, in all te epee* believe as we and our church do." The Pope—ln this they ere wrong. But you see, my daughter, people should be able to give an account of their Chnetian belief—not believe shine in generals, but believe in the separate parts of a doctrine. It is already something to believe in the second prime of the Godhead, and in His incarnation ; but it is necessary also to believe in the insti tution which He founded on earth, otherwise there can be no reality, no faith in Him. And people must believe in the Pope. The Pope is Christ's representative on earth. In Sweden people do not believe on Christ and Hie Church. In Sweden the extreniest intolerance exists towards those who think differently to themselves. The King there has twice endeavoured to introdnoe religious freedom, but they would not have it. Myself—l know it, your Holiness ; but Sweden in former times suffered from catholic* in the country, and old laws still remain unrepealed in consequence. But it will not long be so, I hoped My countrymen will learn to have con. Mince in the power of truth and of Christianity. The Pope—Your reigning Queen is catholic. Myself—Yes, your Holiness, and the noblest of women, an example to her sex, an ornament to the throne. The Pope—All Christian princes and people ought to be lieve on the Pope and obey him. Their not doing so wises from pure pride and a worldly mind. Hence state churches have arisen. The 'taperer of Russia will not acknowledge the Pope, because I. wishes to be Pope himself. Queen Victoria will not acknowledge the Pope, because she herself will be Popes. ; and so it is in every country where there is a state church. Belief iu the Pope, as the head of the Christian church, i the only rational and consequent thiw; it is that alone which lea d s to unity and clearness. Th• church is an organiestion.- a representative monarchy, with its supreme head—a spiritual state. If in a state people will not obey the supreme head, than there can be neither (dearness nor order—everything becomes confusion.
