NOVEL EXHIBITION, says the San
Francisco Bulletin of November 13, was
zen this afternoon in the parlor of the
S.cidental Hotel, in a test of the cele-
br,ted talking machine invented by Pro.
fsssor Faber, of Vienna, which was at
tended by a number of scientific gentle
men and representativ s of the press.
IN this wonderful piece Of mechanism,
which was perfected about eleven years
ogo the inventor has closely copied the
Sorm and action of the different organs
producing the human voice, and oper-
ates them in the same manner, levers
and springs taking the place of muscles
and nerves. The machine has bellows
for lungs, n windpipe for the conduction
of air an india rubber larnyx, with vocal
cords modelled after those of man, and
onening and closing in the same manner.
II has a fixed upper jaw of wood with
lin of leather. The lower jaw is made of
India rubber, and the mouth has palate
of hard rubber, with movable tongue of
flexible rubber. The nose is not placed
in the same position with the mouth, as
in the human construction, but is placed
below in such position that the air
passing ont produces the nasal sound.
The instrument speaks slowly but dis
tnctly. 1t cannot, OF course, modulate,
because it is only machine and not
susceptible to those emotional effects
dne to the presence of intellect. Four
teen sounds are all that are used in the
machine for the production of speech.
They are the vowels A, Z, l, 0, U. and the
consonants, B, d, G., hard, L, D, W, F,
:. Sh. All the other sounds are pro
iuced out of these by combination and
by modifying their action by either sepa.
rating the vocal cords or bringing them
together. The machine was manipulate
ed by Madame Faber with great dexteri-
ty, and her requirement of such skill
must have been the result of careful and
nntiring practice. 1t was made to utter
plain sound, q rolling sound, a sighing
sound, lisping sound and laughing
sound. 1t repeated the letters OF the
alphabet, all the numerals, several Eng
lsh sentences, and many proper names, F.,
rs well as names and sentences in differ
ent languages. The pronunciation of
most of the words essayed was phoneti-
cally exact, but the entire absence of any
effect Of modulation gives the voice a
sepulchral if not absolutely horrible i'm
preston. The talking machine is small
and compact, occupying no more space
than a common melodeon, and is at
tached to highly-ornamented gilt table.
At the point Of utterance female face or
mask is attached, and the voice proceeds
from the mouth. Every part is open to
inspection, and its appearance does not
indicate the wonderful qualities which it
possesses. As previously published,
this curious piece of mechanism was sad
ly damaged by rough usage on the jour
ney overland, and Professor Faber has
since been busily engaged in placing it
again in order. As to its utility aud
possible benefits, of course the machine
amounts TO nothing more than marvel
lous specimen of ingenuity. representing
many years Of patient labor and expert
ment. 1t has been exhibited throughout
Europe and tho Eastern cities, and will
shortly be presented in public here.

TOOTH In japan, like all the rest of the
world, there are persons who now and

only Japanese contrivanoes for this are q
wooden mallet and stick. The profess
sor Of dentistry, instead of sitting in his
Office with stock OF mysterious and
frightful instrument, goes travelling over
the country, carrying box covered with
brass ornaments, and containing some
little mallets and wedges. When he
meets with a person who wishes to part
company with an aching tooth, the
wedges are pressed in between the tooth
and gum, and then forced down with the
mallet, until, by hammering and prying,
the tooth is made so loose that it can be
pulled out with the fingers. The poor
patient suffers very much. Sometimes
pieces of the jaw are broken away with
the teeth, and it is said the patient dies
from the wound.

AN old compositor who worked upon
Punch many years ago, tells u.s. says the
London Public Opinion, that of all the
aole contributors to that witty periodical,
the MSS OF Douglas Jerrold and Gilbert
Beckett were the most peculiar. Jer-
rods was written in almost microscopic
characters with fine gold pen, and so
close that one of the sides OF the small
ioolscap octave paper he used would
nearly fill q solid BREWER column of
Punch. Mr.. ABeckett's was altogether
the reverse, being written very wide
apart on post octave paper. 1t had a
very curious appearance, for he began
up IN the left hand corner, and widened
out his lines till he finished the page, in
diamond shape, down in the opposite
corner. When written thus, one Of his
pages would make about six lines OF
type, Mr.. Dickens wrote a very un-
readable hand, and his manuscript was
iuli OF alterations, deletions and inter-
lineations.
