Democratic Opinion of Hayes.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Governor Hayes was in the city last
Saturday evening, and participated in
the banquet of the Cincinnati bar asso-
citation at the Grand Hotel. His mod
est demeanor and transformations ad-
dress always makes him friends. He
is not a great man, but a good man,
and the Chicago Times does not over
step the bounds more than usual when
it calls him AN Archangel in Panta-
looms" Governor Hayes is an old
member of the Cincinnati bar, and it
was, doubtless, gratifying to him to
meet his old friends and associates at
the festive board. Throughout all the
trying hours since and before the cleo
tion, Governor Hayes has done nothing
to forfeit the respect of his fellow
citizens. He has some wicked part
ners, though, and if he would only say
to the conspirators who are seeking to
force him into an Office to which the
people have not elected him, "Be
Done he would pass into history as
the greatest man of the times.

A Description of the Telephone.

From the Salem CMass.) Observer, Feb. II.
1t appears that Salem people have
been specially concerned in the pursuit
of this investigation. The fact that
electricity in passing through a mag
netic helix, or coil of wire, is produc-
tive of sound, was first discovered by
Professor Charles G. Page. of this
place, as long ago as 1887. His obser-
vations were published, and, as he was
a man of large attainments, his expert
ments attracted attention at home and
abroad. Other scientists became inter
ested in the same line of investigation,
among them the late Colonel Francis
Peabody, of Salem. The fact, there
fore, that sound could be conveyed
electrically to considerable distances
has been known for some time, and the
nature of the experiments Herewith
was shown on Monday evening in va
rious ways, notably by the transmits
sion from Boston to Lyceum Hall of a
Geographic message, which announced
itself, not by the usual dots and lines
of telegraphy, but by sounds of differ
ent lengths. This was n very interest
ing experiment.
But it remained for Professor Bell Ia
discover that articulate sounds a be
conveyed by the electrical current,
This he has done during his residence
in Salem. Professor Bell is n Scotch,
man by birth, and is engaged in teach,
ing in the State Institution for the
Deaf and Dumb in Boston. where ht
employs the ingenious system of "visi
BILE Speech" of which he is the in
ventor. Associated with him in Iii
telephone experiments is Mr.. Thomas
A. Watson, of Salem, to whom he ex
pressed his obligations for valuable as
sistance.
The apparatus by which this aston
ishing result is secured is wonderful,
simple. Only a telegraph wire, a horse
shoe magnet, two helices and a vibrat
ing disk at each end. The audienc,
can see a mahogany box upon thetable
of the appearance of m ordinary photo
grapher's camera. The tube in the enc
is used in this case to speak into and t.
hear out of. Within the box is a horse
shoe magnet. Opposite each arm o.
the magnet is n helix of the usual con
struction. One end of the wire among
the helics is connected with the ground
and the other with Boston or the plac,
in operating connection. Set up agains'
the helices, within a sixteenth of al
inch, Is a sheet of thin polished iron
upon which the voice of the operator
impinges when speaking. The magnet
induces an electrical current in the tele
graph wire. The vibrating disk i'm
parts pulsations to this electrical cur
rent corresponding to the sounds, which
are conveyed to Boston and reproduce
themselves upon the vibrating dish
there with e%xactness Of tone and ar
t%iculation. The little four inches Of
iron utters the whole gamut of the hu
man voice. This is indeed wonderful
the greatest achievement of moderr
science.

Mr.. EDIToR:-We notice in your last
issue that Inconsistency" true to the
nom de plume, attempts to twist and warp
our article of June 30th on L" Church Fes-
tivals," SO it will apply specially to Bros.
Wilson and Miller of this place. And after
mournfully pleading poverty, timidty and
inuocency, states that he doesn' t think- = -
ou"s ~ De - "a ply criticised for their
action in this enterprise. Who, except SIN
consistency" would have been SO silly and
stupid, after reading the article in question,
as to draw any such inference? No one.
And even he was two weeks finding it out.
We referred to the evil in general sense,
and in this way only could it apply to either
of these honorable gentlemen, for whom
we have most tender regard. The plea of
poverty will not justify such enterprises,
though they may be Endorsed by Pope or
Preacher.
Inconsistency would like to know
what we have done to make such schemes
unnecessary. We reply that we have given
all We could to the support of the Gospel,
and have not squandered our money on
tobacco, or some other needless selfindul
gence, so plainly forbidden both in our
Bible and Discipline. There are many
church members, NOW, please understand
me, "lncon.,') not in our church alone,
who spend more money in the unseemly,
unnecessary, unnatural, unhealthy, un-
cleanly, habit of using tobacco, than they
contribute to the whole church cause. A
reform in this direction would easily solve
the doleful problem, "What is to be done ,"
to collect missionary and other funds
