The deaths registered in London in the week that ended last Saturday were 1,269 ; they exhibit an increase, which is not v ery considerable, on those of the two previous weeks. In the corre sponding weeks of ten previous years the average number was 1,205, which, with a correction for increase of population, becomes 1,326. Notwith standing the remarkable cold of last week the deaths were less by 57 than the number which would have been returned under the average rate of mortality; but the effects of the severe weather will probably be seen in future returns. Of the seven most important zymotic diseases, only whooping-cough shows a decided increase on the number of the preceding week ; it arose from 43 to 61. Scarlatina and typhus show a decrease. Four children died from measles in the sub-district of St. Mary, Paddington. Three died from scarla tina in the sub-district of Chelsea, South, 4 in St. John's, Westminster, 3 in West Hackney, 3 iq the sub-district of Hackney-road, 3 in Camberwell. As regards the results of the last two weeks bronchitis increased but slightly—viz., from 139 to 146 ; pneu monia decreased from 97 to 89. The deaths from pulmonary complaints, in which class the last,men tioned diseases are the chief contributors, were last week 270, the corrected average of corresponding weeks being 301. There were seven deaths from burns and scalds. Three children died from their clothes taking fire— the daughter of a labourer, aged eight years; the daughter of a tailor, aged five years ; and the son of a jeweller, aged five years. A tanner's labourer, aged 18 years, died by falling into a pit containing boiling water. Eight infants were suffocated in bed. A woman in St. Luke's Workhouse, aged 45 years, was choked by large pieces of bread which she had attempted to swallow. Two men died from starvation—a blacksmith, aged 62 years, at 2, King's Head-court, Shoreditch, on the 10 th inst. ; and a carpenter, aged 54, at 5, Brick-lane, City road, on the 22d inst. A woman died of ele phantiasis. Last week the births of 877 boys and 903 girls, in all 1,780 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1850-59 the average number was 1,519. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.585 in. The readings fell from 30 . 10 in. on Sunday to 29 26 in. on Wednesday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 32 . 1 deg, which is 7.2 deg below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was below the average throughout the week, and on Thursday it: was 10. deg below the average, and on the two preceding days the amount of depression was nearly as great. The highest point attained in the week by the thermometer in the shade was 41 deg on Sunday ; the lowest point was 24 deg on Wednesday, or 8 deg below the freezing point of water. The range of temperature in the week was, therefore, 17 deg. The mean daily range was 6.9 deg. The range on Saturday was only 3 . 8 deg. The difference between the mean dew point temperature and air temperature was 3 . 3 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 88, complete saturation being represented by 100. On Wednesday a thermometer on the grass fell to 13 deg. The wind generally blew from a north or north-westerly point. The rain or melted snow measured was 2.loths of an inch. The mean temperature of the water of the Thames was 39 . 6 deg. FELONY BY A SHEFFIELD MANUFACTURER.— At the Sheffield Town Hall, yesterday, John Pacey, a master saw manniacturer, was charged with felony. Th e prisoner, it appears, had been in the habit of attending the public baths in that town, where for some time past felonies had been committed from the garments of the bathers hanging on the walls. The prisoner was suspected, and on Thursday evening was watched, and detected with his hand in the pocket of one of the garments. A watch which had been stolen on the previous night was traced to his possession. The prisoner is respectably connected, and for the defence it was urged he is in an unsound state of mind, and has given himself up to drinking habits. The prisoner was recently a sufferer to a great extent by the defaulting Birmingham bankrupt, Plirnley Edwards, and this circum stance appears to have thrown him out of his regular habits. He employs between fifty and sixty men. The prisoner was remanded on condition that his friends place him under medical examination, with a view to his being taken care of.—Areinellester Examiner. a edgn m i 3 nrTrt a h e. e hi pert printinguehc co m pa ni esTsshi irf t n eoey t erarotolemo a fyEn r mt e dha Facility and speed in communication become c ota s tbhheu e fl eaainl Curers, vgeeaer telegraphs. foi l npoat e a tehun g mt hl hnsde r ee. every day of more and more importance.

The police-stations throughout the City are now also placed in instantaneous communication htubobaoannive svcii instance,cDneoht comm un ica tion created wants which with each other. Such important results as these have been brought about principally by the per fection to which Professor Wheatstone 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 en instrument as this a trained estab lishment of clerks would be necessary to work the telegraph. By its aid the owner of the telegraph 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 fat-working it is contained in a small box, much 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 30 equal divisions on its outer edge marked by the letters of the alphabet, three stops, and a cross. The inner row has the nine digits and zero repeated twice. There is a hand like the hour hand of a 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 30 keys, like those of an ac cordion, 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 nicator is something like a watch, a little larger indeed, fixed on a stand, in convenient position for observing the dial; it rests on a small stand, which contains the apparatus for working an alarum bell. The face of the communicator has 30 divisions like the telegraph, 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 is two sets of 'these instruments, one at the Queen's printers, the other in the House of Commons. A single wire is fastened at the Printer's to the water pipes of the establish ment, or else attached to a plate of metal buried in the earth, this wire is made to pass 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 tele graph and communicator, and is then buried in the earth or attached to some pipes which are in con nection with the ground. On the box which sup ports 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 instrument is not 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 alarums at both stations immediately sounded. This calls the attention of the clerk or operator at the other station. He then replies by turning the handle of his telegraph, when both alarums are sounded for a second time. Now, both sender and receiver turn the pointer at the base of their communicators to the T. Be fore sending the message, the pointers of all four instruments 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 communicator turn in succession to each of these letters, and pause until he depresses the next letter. The index of the communicator of the receiver of the message moves in the same way, and•he also spells the words he receives. The word finished, the sender depresses the key opposite his cross and the communicator shows the receiver that a word is spelt. He acknowledges the receipt of it, and that he under stands 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 complete revolution. If any letter or sign is to be repeated in succession in spelling a word, it is necessary to depress for an instant an adjacent key, and then to depress that opposite the letter to be repeated before the indices or hands of the instruments have pointed to the letter. This is the simple method of using the instrument. It possesses this great advantage for private pur posei, that it requires no galvanic apparatus, with corrosive 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 en closed in the telegraph box do all the work of the electric ariel, 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 beautifulinstrument 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 insolated wire is wound like a silk or thread round a 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 pass over the poles of the magnet the core of the bobbin pass ing over is magnetised; and 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 bob bins 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 electri city so set up pass through the alarum:of the sender to that of the receiver, and return by the earth. A most ingenious mechanical and electromagnetic r t a um i r p o o: n t a ia , n on w g nd e i o t m s h fo e o t n u ch t o t en s r as e e ;g ar s u ur t i ne rhe w tm i e n dc g a i r nh n k y tt s b c b o e l y o f s c o b n k u o on w t ldh al m a o e r r d k : t o atrroun accidental becs in m i itwd never entivtneao drl rings without the passage of currents of electricity. When the pointer is turned to T, the communi cators are put in connection with the telegraph. The communicators have each an electro-magnetic h a i x ch coedtnosaisnts axis,of tw o a p n e d rm ly a i n n e g nt p ly ara m i a l g e - 1 .iron c b n e e t t w i e e noe a pp a ratus,rne ee cores- l w ews o h b e o b a b r i n of m s a tu r e i s n s u l of a t t e h d e s wire coresr e wit t a h r e s o s f o 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 effect of the two attractions and two repulsions of the needles being to rotate the axis to which they are fixed. This axis communicates by an escape ment 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 one of the telegraphs is turned, for every revolu tion of the handle the magnet in the telegraph sets up a current in the bobbins within the telegraph, but these currents all pass by a short circuit through the instrument and the earth; we now depress 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 succes sione i n different directions—the hand of t he tele graph o f t h e sen d er , an d the hands of both commu nicators, are made to advance step by step till t h e letter opposit e th e d epresse d k e y i s arrived at. The instant this but is is letterc arr i ed is telegraph alters th e c i rcu i t, t h e curren t no longer passes through the t e l egraph w i re an d th e commu nicators, e d o ff reached, through mechanisme the shorter rt er f the circuit. Another key is now depres se d b y t h e sen d er , a beau tiful piece of mechanism the depregsion of this key to elevate the key last d e p resse d, pu t s th e instrument in circuit with the wire and th e indi cators, 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 quick both in sending and receiving a 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 lathe popularisation of the use 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 act of Parliament for their incorporation under the name of the Universal Telegraph Company. Professor Wheatstone hes discovered that for moderate distances, say for 20 miles, his electric road only requires a copper wire about the thickness of an ordinary piece of cotton thread. Thirty such wires, each covered with a thin coating of india rubber and linen, can be combined into a cable about the thickness of the little finger. Thus 30 private electric roads, perfectly insulated from each other, can be combined in one rope, not 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 substitution of indiarubber for gutta percha as an insulator. For this we are indebted to the energy, skill, and per severance of Messrs. Silver and Co., who have suc ceeded in demonstrating to the best telegraphists that they can manufacture an indiarubber insula tion for wires which shall make us independent of the constant failure of gutta percha as an insulator. With gutta percha the insulation of this cable of 30 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 percha and destroy the insulation. The insulation of indiarubber is not only superior to gutta percha, but it resists the heat which would entirely melt the latter. The Universal Telegraph Company propose to connect all parts 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 30 or 60 insulated wires. These cables will be supported by posts on the tope 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, as well as the angular stations at the extre mities of the mile of 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 post. 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 post nearest to them. That this system is likely to meet with immediate adoption in many in stances 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. Reuter, so well known in connexion with tele grams, 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 communication. 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 £6 a year, or a pair of them for £l2, This includes keeping the instru ments in perfect working order. Thus, for instance, a merchant or manufacturer can have private tele graphic communication between two stations a mile apart for £l6 a year. The insulated cable being suspended from uncovered iron wires, and these wires being connected with the leads and iron pipes of the houses to which their supporting posts are attached, lightning cannot pass through the in sulated 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 co m p ound ro p e and the smallconducting wires w ill answer, we saw demon strated by Mr. Holmes , the cons ulting engineer of the proposed company, at Mr, Reuter's on Friday last. We also saw t he successful a p plication of the small conductor to Mr. Wheatstone's Automatic Printing Telegraph. Thi s telegraph is intended for the speedy transmission strip of messages through lines w h ere economy of time in the use of the line is of great importance. The of dots es son g a e to is punched out in a series ribbon of paper. The cyp her used is so similar to that of the Morse system , which i s now the uni versal telegraphic alphabet on the co n ti nent and message a be of n arro w se nt America, that a person conversant with the one can immediately read the other. The Morse alph a b e t repre s e nts every letter by a line or a d ot, or the com bination of these, not exceeding f our f or ever y 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 a pressure of the finger. The ribbon of pa per is introduced a t th e top o f t h e instrument; every time one of th e k eys i s d e p re ssed it punc hes a ho le through the ribbon, and moves it a space forward ; when the same or another key is depressed anot her hole is punched, and the paper again moved for ward to receive another perforation. One key answers for Morse's line or dash, a nother for his dot, and the third or middle on e is used for spac ing. This spacing obviates a difficulty in the Morse system of telegraph ing. . g The Morse system is always tile: in connected n with a telegraphic in strument. The ciSerenee betweentthe printing of a line or a dot is determin ed by the time the ling% er lon the Morse system re , ir r4R en the key of the t ransmitting instrurae nt . & lowness of the pen a !' q T u o ir b e e s a a g n oo a d ec t ur ele a g te ra p p e h r it x lion of musical time, a p erc eption of which many p eo p le are Besidesdefi cien t.usin using the thi s punchiadvantage, p a the a t n. s of Wheatstone's' automatic system does not cam -13 a waste of the time of the telegraphic line. 'When the message is punched out On the ribbon, this ribb on f orms , as it were, a continuoug jacquard pattern. Thi s i s now introduced into the trans mitting in s t rument.

If a spring pass through one of Vie upper holes of the strip, a current of ekctricity L's made by the mechanical arrangement attached this spring to pass through the telegraph wit:e tv a distant station ; if a spring passes through th e lower hole an opposite current is produced ; lastly., if the middle spring pass through an opening ncse current is sent. At the receiving station there is a recording or printing apparatus. A thin strip of paper is mad e i by clock-work to pass through the printing appa, ratus when a message is to be received. This ap paratus has two series of eleetromagnetic apparatus similar to those used in the communicator of the* universal instrilmcTlts. _They.are so arranged, how. ever, that the axes to which t:.40 permiihmit magMts are attached are moved, the one ailsocti - ibr 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 ca p illar y attraction prevents the flow of the ink thro u g h them unleso it is car r i e d b y th e d epres sion of the style. N o w , t he electromagnets cause o ne of these sty les to be de' pressed for a cur ren t i n one direction, the oth er style for that in the o pp os it e ; th e r ibbon pass ing under the reservoir of ink by th e mo ti on o f the clockwork has a dot made at top or b o tt om , accor ding' Asa dot perforated through the top or b o tt om o f the ribbon passes at the same time through th e transmitting apparatus. Some idea of the speed w ith which this' au t o matic printing telegraph can forward messages may be estimated when we state that a column of newspaper print, such as that of a Parliamentary debate, can be transmitted 200 miles in about 20 minutes. We are rejoiced 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 telegraphic progress.
