The TeleGraDh

We see great many notices of Hughes Printing
Telegraph, which is certainly 7eryi wonderful
invention 1t il represented that it prints clearly
and distinctly and with unerring accuracy all the
messages sent by it, and that on single line
sa4es can be sent both sodys at the lims When
this popularity of messages passing in opposite
directions over the same wire was first claimed
for Hughes invention it not credited because
1t was considered An impossibility. Several gen.
tlemen bear testimony to the fact that they have
seen 1t done The editor of the Baltimore American
saw this on a wire one mile long. Mr.. II. himself
cannot explain how the counter currents pass
without interruption Of either; but only knows from
SEXUAL experiment that they do. Another merit
claimed for the apparatus is that an operator may
set in motion machine. at the opposite end of the
line from that where he is stationed. So that, in
the absence of the operator from the office to which
message 10 sent, the message may nevertheless
be printed off and ready when he enters or, as l.,
is printed, may be read by any one, whether ope
rator or not who has charge of the office In bis
absence.

come 20 him from every quarter from the friends
OF the Asylum, from the friends of the inmates,
and indeed from the inmates themselves, and with
drawn his resignation. DR. Stribling, by his grea,
ability, inexhaustible energy, and rare combina

given to the Western Lunatic Asy lum all its great
efficiency and reputation, and his loss would have
been irreparable. Such services, talents and sac
rihces As he has made, ought to command from the
State double his present miserable compensation
