The Future of the Terephone.

The Boston correspondent of the New
York Sun gives the following account of
an interview with Mr.. Watson, of tele-
phone fame:
az haven't the slightest doubt" Mr..
Watson said to-day, "that in a few
months things will be SO that man can
make a lecture here in Boston and be
heard by an audience in any part of the
country"
"Do you expect that the telephone
will entirely supersede the present sys-
tenn of telegraphingf 1 asked.
eyes, we expect it will, eventually. A
company is now forming for the purpose
of manufacturing and introducing the
instrument. In time it can't fail to re-
place the old dot and line alphabet sys-
tenn entirely. We expect, at first, it
will be used mostly on private lines and
for city business. 1t will probably take
the place of the present district tele-
graph companies and the like, as it will
be especially convenient for that class of
business.
"Won't the receiving operators have
to learn short-hand"
eyes, 1 suppose they will. In our
experiments we have paused after say
ing sentence, so that the receiver had
time to write in long hand"
Mr.. Watson remarked that the intro.
duction of the telephone would probably
have the effect of increasing the tele-
graph business to such an extent that it
would hasten the time when the wires
would have to be laid under ground in
stead of being strung on poles. Apropos
to singing by telegraph, I ask if itwould
not save a deal of expense to our Ameri-
can opera managers. can American
audience could hear Nilsson, Patti, or
any European prima donna, without
bringing them across the Atlantic" ]
suggested. "Just place the receiving
machine in the Boston Hall, for instance,
and let the songstress put her mouth
close to the mouthpiece in Paris, Lon
don, Vienna, or st. Petersburg, and the
effect would be the same as if the prima
donna herself were present in the fesh."
Certainly" said Mr.. Watson, smil-
ing, and it would be curious to observe
what the presence of the voice and alb
sence of the person would have on the
critics. Homely singers would proba-
bly, advance in public esteem, while some
of the beautiful cantratrices might suffer
a corresponding set back when their
voices were judged on their merits"
No trial has yet been made, however,
of the transmission of sounds go great
distance as across the Atlantic. Mr..
Watson said that as far as they had been
able to ascertain, there seemed to be a
limit to the distance over which the
sounds could. be made to travel; but he
expressed himself as confident that in
due time any given distance can be an
initiated. "We have, in fact" he
added, "talked through wire arranged
to give an artificial resistance equal to
1000 ohms, which is more resistance
than the entire length of the Atlantic
cable would offer. But there are other
obstacles to overcome in order to transmit
the sound of the voice correctly to such
distance as that. Professor Bell and l
are constantly at work here perfecting
the system, you see. When favorable
opportunity offers, we shall try and have
a practical test over one of the trans
atlantic cables"

THE infantile fatality in the City of
New York has been gratifyingly re-
duced during the last ten years, accord

of mortality of children under five years
of age TO the total mortality was 81 80 in
1867 and 4S.74 in 1876.

ILLICIT tobacco making has grown
enormously in Canada. 1t is estimated
that in 1871 there were grown in the
Province of Quebec, by farmers, one
and a quarter million pounds, and in
1S745, nearly five million pounds. In
the first named year but $4,000 pounds,
and in the last bat ten pounds were re-
turned for duty. - .se

Touched with the delicate green of early May,
Or later when the rose unveils her face,
The world hangs glittering in star-strewn space,
Fresh as jewel found but yesterday,
And yet tits very odd what tongue may say
How old it is? Race follows upon race,
Forgetting and forgotten In their place
Sink tower and temple; nothing long may stay.
We build on tombs; and live our day, and die;
From out our dust new towers and temples start;
Our very name becomes mystery.
