The motive power is simple being that of weight,
which sets m motion the key-sha and governor OF the Key
board and the circuit wheel in with the shan

the type wheel OF the telegraph set AT liberty by means Of
an escapemeni, and weights in connexon with it, so as
print with like velocity, in combination with an hy-
drauc or pneumatic regulator. which admits of the de-
sired letter only being printed by checking and releasing
an eccentric arrangements rod rom thence unites with
the cylinder on which the paper is printed, in various

government dispatches aud the like can be printed line
by line, like the column of newspaper of an unlimited
length.
The second engraving represents separate keyboard,
of circular form, from which communications be for
waded to any every station in connection with IT, the
letters, words or characters being arranged around Il on
The keys and these depressed by the fingers, will check
the motion of pin, SHAFT and also of the circuit wheel
fixed 10 the same axis at such given point or keys by which
means The operator may make break the circuit OF con
luctors ut such letter point.
The distance actually proved to act by his telegraph in
continuous line has been $50 miles and 30miles
AT the rate Of 100 letters per minute.
Mr. Be has had his patent secured throughout the con
nenl, Well AS also for America and, should his orgi-
nal project entertained some snce) OF uniting Amer
with England by oceanic line be carried ont, is
not improbable tla in the OF few years. the news
of the extreme north WILL by this extraordinary invention
be printed nsanianeousy at the points OF South
America and the traverse England, crossing from
Calais Dover, where by the arrangements pro-
gress, it will extend to the south and eas-realizng, in

And wait a thought from Indus to the pole.
This telegraph has been shown Buckingham Palace,

slight comparison will show you that the instrument
described in the Morning Chronicle of February is dent
cal with that descnbedn the illustrated News OF May
and that both claim the transmission OF the New York
governors message, as testing their capacity Thus,
Morse is first robbed and then America is robbed OF the
honor of this great inventions and Europe is virtually told
that the telegraph used in America is of British origin!
is scarcely necessary to remark that the capacity at
r6ued to this printing telegraph. (Which from February
to May has increased from 81 to 800 to 5000 letters per
mnute) as well as its submarine and underground
operations through rivers seas islands, and continents,
are equally fabulous and fraudulent
game precisely of the same character has been in
progress in the United States ever since Morses tele-
graph fair to be source OF profit First, this very
printing telegraph invented by House represented
lar superior to Morses, and just ready to be put in ope-
ration You may recolect that about two years ago, Mr.
Vail publicly challenged Mr. House. through your paper,
to put his telegraph in competition with Morses on the
line from Washington to Baltimore; which the latter de-
cned 1t has remained closet concern in America ever
snce but comes out in Europe under the auspices OF one
who claims 10 be partner of Mr. House, and unblust-
iagiy claims all MorSes performances!
Men engaged in some parts OF the United States
in game just unprncpled that of the Brets in Eng
land In the face of the public here they dare not clam
the actual performances Of Morse for their speculative
projects but they do that which is not whit more hon
est They represent that this or that has invented a
telegraph far superior to Morses, and in places
attempting TO get up companies to put them IN operation
For most Of these plans patents hare been granted or
applied for, and not has been patented ucih can be
used irithout an infringement Of WorsGs patent.
Professor Morse and his associates have reTaned from
buyne up these interests, notwithstanding the trouble
they have produced by occasional ourshes through the
newspapers; satisfied that nothing has yet been invented
racy, and determined never to yield to impudence and
fraud that which they will be ready to concede 10
real merit
