"Will any special legislation be required
in the construction of your lines"
'NOne is now anticipated. We shall claim
the same privileges given to other COM
panies formed under the law relating to
such corporations. We do not ask any
special privileges. The right Of way, we
hope, will be accorded us everywhere. A
universal interest in the project will help US
in this respect. The only trouble to be
anticipated will be along some of the rail
road routes, the right of which may have
been previously given to other companies.
Every estimate as to the probable cost of
construction has been made, and arrange
ment for the different divisions proposed,
but these are details which, at the present
stage of operations, it will not be polite to
state. 1t is a well recognized fact that
with the companies in this country the value
of the property of the lines is not in pro-
portion to the stock, very probably owing
To the difficulties met in their construction.
The Western Union Company, with 10000
miles of wire. has q capital OF $40, 000,00
or cost of nearly 5000 per mile of wire.
This will far exceed the estimated cost of
construction in the National Company
"Who are your associates in this clty!"
"That l am not at liberty to answer at

not care to be publicly associated with the
enterprise at this time. Those in this city,
as we'll as on the Pacific coast, represent a
very large amount of capital"
Mr.. Cohen will positively leave the city
to-day on business connected with the com

to-day, and upon his return will proceed to

Don't Let Your Child Tattie.

Never listen to small unpleasant state
ments made by your child, if they relate to
his fellows. Not that a child should ever
be made to feel that he has no sympathy
in his small troubles, but it is just as easy,
and even easier, to teach him a chivalric
beginning of his childhood, as it is after
ward. Ii his companions be selfish and
arrogant, show him how dsagreeable and
despicable quality 1t is, and instruct him
to abhor it in himself. Complaining is
in itself a spirited thing, and tat
ting is still worse, and child can not
too soon comprehend its baseness. And
must be made. While the child is
brought to feel the full sympathy of the
mother, and an entirely coDfding habit is
encouraged about things that relate solely
to himself, the small faults of his fellows
are not subjects to be included in this conf
dence-they are to remain forever un-
spoken to her or to anybody. Of course,
we do not mean that a knowledge of Grimm al
conduct in q companion should be shared
with the parents, but even such relations
should be told in tho most sacred trust and
secrecy, as one would confess their own
sins to their Maker. The small petulances,
tritiing misdeeds. arrogant assumptions, de-
mands for the best positions when at play,
greed for sweetest pleasures by playmates,
very naturally rouse dissensiOns among
small people, just as they do among maturer
ones. 1t is the mothers duty to discover
these unpleasant habits in her childs COM
panions, and while not encouraging a state
ment from him in regard to them, she
should not permit the principles involved
in them to pass without making them sub.
jects of useful conversation. But the names
of the children who are involved in the talk
about misdeeds should never be spoken by
the mother. The principles of justice and
honor are enough for proper amount of
discussion and instruction. To make beau
tiful, their charms should be familiar to
the child, and 80 interviewer in his young
thoughts that selishness, petulance, COM
planning, disappearing of others to make
his own way seem right, should all seem
sentiments unworthy of him.-IRe Metro,
poitan.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-10-17

One of the most remarkable inventions in
the way of telegraphy was recently ex-
hibited at Brandford, Ontario. 1t consists
of an apparatus by which musical sounds
can be transmitted over telegraph wires
and every word and note be as distinctly
heard at the end Of the wires as at the place
where the music originates. In short, when
the invention ia in working order it is
plainly heard in New York as at that place.
A second improvement, soon to be exhibited,
is that of sending messages already written
out, without the usual telegraph operations,
and pictures as we'll. The plan is to have
the message written on ehellac paper, then
placed into q machine made for the pur-
pose. 1t is received at the other terminus
upon piece of shellso paper from like
machine, plainly written, like copper plate.
Pictures, the inventor says, can be perfectly
copied by the same process. All this work
can be done by boys, and if put into opera
ton will do away with telegraph operators
altogether. Still another discovery, which
1t 10 claimed can be put into use, is that OF
transmitting over single wire any amount
OF messages to the same point and ct the
same time. The plan il to have . CORE
spending number of Instruments ct each
terminus OF the wire, and one Of each OF
thess tuned to correspond with ono ct the
other end. By this arrangement tho entire
number OF machines can be operated simuI-
taneously, and each will sound the one
tuned TO the corresponding pitch ct the
other end without any one interfering with
another.
