Au..srsphs ~ Telegraph.

A very curious and complicated
transmitter, used in France, is an au-
Geographic instrument, by which the fac
emile of the hand writing can be pro-
duced ut any other Office where q sim
liar instrument is used. II is especi-
ally useful for messages relating to
transfers Of money, as II affords the
receiver an Opportunity to test the an-
thenticity Of the dispatch by the fac
smile Of the sender's signature. The
message is written on chemically pre-.
pared paper, and the price varies with
the size Of the paper.
This instrument can transmit steno.
graphich writing, and then ito rapidly
Is said to be truly prodigi0ue. Por.
traits and drawings can also be trans
mitted by it.
This seems almost incredible. But
the reader who has followed the OK
plantations before given can form a
general idea of the process, by imagin-
ing that two great pendulums are
made to swing simultaneously one at
either end OF tho line. Each moves q
metallic point back and forth over the
surface Of chemically prepared paper,
and after every movement the position
of the pencil is changed q hair
breadth down the page. II, then, al
the instant the metallic point at one
terminus is in contact with . line OF
the manuscript or copy, Q telegraphic
current is transmitted to the point al
the other terminus, and passes thence
through the paper, it will produce
discoloration, which will be dot OF
line, according TO the duration Of the
current. If the autograph be closely
inspected It will DO seen that it is made
mp of very fine parallel lines. Harp.

THROUGH rREIsHT.

The Chicago Inter Ocean, in discuss
ing the merits and workings. of the
new Illinois railway tariff, says:
Foremost among these new ques-
tons is that of through freights, which
is being thoroughly discussed in rail-
way circles. The Illinois Railway
Commissioners expressed an opinion
that the law prohibiting discrimina-
tons applies to all shipments carried
in the State, though made to or from
points outside Of it. The railway Of
ticials say that this construction Of the
law is equivalent to n statement that a
railway company shall be considered
guilty Of violating the law in regard
to unjust discrimination il it shall
charge az little, or less, for carrying a
given amount Of freight outside of the
State as it does for carrying the same
amount to less distant point within
the State. 1t is stated that according
to their view, the Chicago, Burlington
Il Quincy road must charge more from
Chicago TO Hannibal than to Quincy !:
the Illinois Central more to Dubuque
than to Dunleith; the Rock Island
more 70 Davenport than to Rock ISL
and, and the Chicago l. Northwestern
more to Clinton than to Fulton. This
is, the officials say, substantially 4
command that rates across the State
shall be very nearly the same per mile
as the long local rates. A very large
number of the Illinois roads have ter
mini on the east bank of the Missis-
sippi, and, by addition of mile or
so, reach the Iowa or Missouri bank,
where they receive the traffic Of roads
owned either by themselves or inde-
pendent companies from the Vest
Some Of the freight agents state that
it the traffic Of these outside roads
must pay the same rate per mile as the
traffic originating in Illinois, on it's
way to Chicago or across the State,
either Iowa and Missouri must stop
shipping coarse produce like grain and
stock, or they must find routes to and
from the East which do not cross ILL.,
inois.
The railway officials state that the
workings Of the law, as defined by the
recent Interpretation, will be simple If
The lowest local rate that can be made
will be prohibitory ON most of the
shipments from points west Of the
Mississippi, If they are not, then, it
is said, the trans Mississippi shippers
must be taxed to relieve the Illinois
shippers, otherwise the roads, it is al
legged, will receive no trans MISSISSIPPI
pi shipments, and will have to be sup
ported by the Illinois business alone,
while the traus Mississippi country
must either stop shipping and receiv-
ing freight, or else must find routes
which do not cross Illinois. This is
the view railway men take of the
through freight question, as defined by
Railway Commissioners.

Battle OF Money.

The Christian Union contains an
editorial on the Battle of Money!
in which occur the following para
graphs:
The great battle Of our day is to be
the battle of money. The combina-
ton of capitalists, the consolidation
of railroads, the enormous concentrG.
ton of money in comparatively few
hands, is raising up a Plutocracy which
threatens TO overmatch legislatures,
courts, and all private interests that
may stand in the way Of gigantic cor
porationa.
/ If the very ablest men in Congress
are so easily beguiled aud perverted
by the fret onset, what will the future
be, when millions of dollars can be
brought to bear on Congress to secure
millionaires,. legislation, as against
the interests of the common people
Is the Congress of the United States
become an exchange on which money
princes shall meet aud exchange com.
modities!
The remedy is two-fold: There
must be formed home sentiment Of
honesty, which shall make it impossi.
BILE for any man to enjoy such gaiai
as he gets by sacrifice of honor,
truth and public trust. AS long as
men. by scores and hundreds, can go to
the Legislature poor, and IN five years
return rich, maintain their popularity
and enjoy their iil-gotten possessions
Of what use will it be once in ten
years to sacrifice luckless criminal
amid universal execrntious. The hon
esty must dwell among common pco.
pie. There must be honesty at the
source Of power. Ii the people are
debauched, their representatives will
not be yirtuons. The moral education
Of the whole community must, after
all, be the grand remedy.

The Postmaster General is very con-
tident that the abolition of the frank.
ing privilege will result in a very ma
terial increase in the revenues of the
postal service. lie is of the opinion
that the increase will be so great that
the department will become entirely
selt-sustaining. The receipts from
sales of stamps siuce the abolition
the franking privilege furnish substan-
tial basis for this confidence. They
exceed in amount the receipts during
any similar period in the history of

AN EXTRACT.

Our readers are aware how, OF late,
animated through personal spite sud
regardless of truth the Editor-in.chief
OF the State Register has persisted in
spreading broadcast through the State,
willful aud deliberate fatsehood in
regard to the present proprietors of
the COURIER. touching their action in
connection with ccrtain bogus tickets
voted in this county in the autumn of
1870. The tickets had the name of
Mr.. Smith, Democratic candidate for
Congress, on them in the place of
Hon. NJ. NJ. Walden. Everybody
here Knows that this was done with
out the knowledge or consent of the
COURIER proprietors. and that they
denounced il, having no part or parcel
with 1t We showed all this complete
ly by the statements of the parties
who did the work Our defense was
so clear outside of our own statements
that at the time the present editor-in-
chief of the Register then also editing
that paper, in an editorial OF the
issue OF October 18th. 1870, speaking
of this subject, said:
"ln one county Wapel'o--this dsatfec
ton resorted to All extent so low as 10 in

I Helgic(, Of the Qttuinws Courier. who
was charged with this, has exoncrated him

deuunciation ut the act. as we felt sure he
would when the allegations against hin,
were put in circulation.'

tup between the Reyister and ourselves,
the Hon. Joseph III. Merrill, State Sena-
tor from this county, was asked ii IL

knowledge of and nothing to do with
the bogus ticket transaction. and he
assured the editors of the Register that
we were entirely innocent OF it. Not
Notwithstanding all this, our friends reit-
crate their charge. knowing that they

Judge Thaycr, editor of the Clinton

gentleman Of ability. whom we have
long Known las q genial friend, has
through his paper given some excel
lent advice to Democrats in these
times. We must confess that the
Judge shows that he is rather in a
dilemma and hardly knows which way
to turn; he says:
But ]e. these minor things be as they
may, there are principles at stake which
must be upheld and maintained At snch

nations shall he made by our party, we

in secrecy and arraying one class
against another. shrcwd Democrats
know very we'll can't rally Democracy
as body to its support. For instance
II is doubtless true that the foreign
| catholic vote has been aud is, for the
most part, within the Democratic fold,
and il would be funny indeed to see
this vote given to a secret party -
Again ii would be strange to see the
foreign vote generally supporting
such a party. Know-nothingism has
not yet been forgotten by those voters
/! and their hatred of secret political Or
CARNATIONS is intense. Still again,
where these political Changers seek to
cut upon the legitimate business OF
dealers and midalcmen, as they are
termed. they Of course will not have a
very warm side for this movement
Hence it js no wonder that Judge
Thayer says when the Democratic par
ty has no ticket the members of the
party will probably cast their votes as
they please. and "where they will do
the mos good"
