BKIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WONDERFUL IN
sTRUMEST.
THIS wonde rful new instrument Is mis-
named The microscope is that through
which we see the indefinitely small the
microphone is meant to signify that by which
we hear sounds indefinitely minute and faint.
but the proper sense Of the word would be
that which sings and speaks small. The
name Ia, however, probably fixed. The prin-
ciple upon which this curious instrument de
pends and the use it is expected to serve are
concisely stated in the London Standard II
says
Since as light is produced by vibrations o.
the presumed ether, and sound by similar
vibrations of the air, and since either can be
refracted and concentrated by appropriate
means, il has for some time been known tina;
a lens of thin, balloon-like material filled
with gas denser than air would magnify
sound to the ear as glass lenses magnify OBJ
iects to the eye placed at the focus. The ex
traordinary powers Of the microphone de
pend however. on totally different princi
ple-on the effect Of strain upon the resist
snce offered by conducting material to the
passage of the electric current. tightly
stretched wire is strained and may be strain
ed almost to breaking by air vibrations, and
at the breaking point it was found that sound
Mhh n i'bb nSiASn VI
assured the inventor that by inserting be-
tween the severed points of the wire a mum.
Der Of points through which the current
might be passed with multiplied resistance
the object OF magnifying sound could be OBJ
tanned. The best form Of such resisting ap'
paratus Is found practically to be attained by
billing the pores Of three or four pieces Of
willow charcoal, differently arranged. accord
ing to their precise purpose, with mercury,
the particles of which are indefinitely divided
and difused throughout the whole substance
Of the charcoal. BY the insertion of such
an apparatus into the circuit the faintesi
sounds, such as the movement of a fly on
the disc Of the telephone, may be heard
clearly, and with even painful loudnsss. al
the further end of the electric wire. The
microphone caa certainly be employed in
medicine with invaluable effect enabling the
doctor to hear sounds, healthy or unhealthy,
infinitely fainter than any that the stetho'
scope can gather, and thus facilitating inde
6nitely the diagnosis OF disease in Its earliest
and most durable stages.

DURING the fiscal Of the United States
treasury, Just closed, the total receipts Of
the Government from all sources were, in
round numbers, s2jS 900 900. being about
$ll 100000 less. than the receipts of the
preceding year. OF thi. falling IF. S8,-
600 900 are due to reduced receipts from in
ternal revenue, traceahle partly to the
tinkering Of Congress with existing duties,
end partly tn the reduced ability Of the
people to consume articles of luxury like
whiskey and tobacco, from which the
largest amount of such revenue IS derived
Exclusive Of interest payments on the public
debt, amounting to one hundred millions Of
dollars, the ordinary expenditures Of the
Government were $l35 ,G2O, coo. or six
millions less than the smOdnt expended
during the PRECEDING year Had there been
no payments on account Of deficiencies Of
previous years, the statement OF July l
would have shown decrease of nearly
$4,000 600 in the public debt, less cash
after meeting those obligations, the debt
less cash is increased g. l49, ,3SllS. The
New York Tribune says in view of these
figures In effect, Democratic management
has bought popularity by waste OF public
money Prior tn the Presidential campaign,
in order to make a good showing in that
contest, the Democratic House refused to
appropriate money which, under existing
laws. in part passed by that very House, it
was bound to appropriate. Ii is hard to
imagine meaner deception. The House
passed Jobs in order 10 please the persons
interested. and then neglected to vote the
money. il order 10 tickle ignorant voters
with false pTetense Of economy. The
Presidential election is over, and tie Demo-
cratic House begins tO pay the money 80
long refused, aud the consequence is an in
crease of the public debt in midsummer.
During the past year the reduction Of debt.
less cash, has been $24 81 ,39l.S4; but
this is nearly $4,000, 900 less than the re-
dueti6s during the last tcal year, even after
proper allowance fur the S9,5j3 500 OBJ

A special despatch to the New York
World, from Washington, gives some inter-
e4ting information concerning the present
and prospective operations d the silver act.
The mints have now coined in the neigh
b,rho0d of < 900 900 silver dollars, and will
co..inue to coin them after the lst of July
at the rate of about 2,O0O,O0O month.
There will therefore be about 2O,OOO,OOO Of
this debaScd coin in existence on the lst OF
January next. Almost the whole amount OF
dollars thus far coined is still in possession
of the government. People do not want
them, and it is utterly impossible to get
them into circulation. The issue of silver
certificates has reached an aggregate Of ST.
IG2 600, but these certificates, like the dol
lars themselves, como directly back to the
government as soon as they are issued. The
treasury now has in its various offices
81 .33s ,l7O OF them The present opera
ton of the silver law is as fol
lows The government WAS compelled at
the start to use gold coin TO purchase silver
bullion, but as Don ~ the first million oi
silver dollars were coined the bullion was
maid for in these dollars. The seller OF bull
lion immediately passed the silver dollars to
brokers, who paid them back to the govern
mcnt for customs duties. As soon as the
issue of silver certificates was begun by the
government these took the place OF the silver
dollars in payment Tor silver bullion. The
bullion broker now receives silver certificates
for h4 bullion, and the silver dollars do not
20 out Oi the possession Of tho government
nj all The silver certificates are passed to
brokers' and used in the payment OF duties.
They are not u legal tender, and are not
sought for any other purpose. As the gov
ernment will only purchase bullion at the
rate of s. 900 900 month. not more than
- 900 900 worth OF certificates are brought
INTO use, and this amount will be sufficient
I, cover the silver tullion business for the
remainder OF the year. Ii is calculated ut
the Treasury Department that by the first
of January next the government will have
been deprived Of ut least ten millions OF
gold, which it would have received if silver
and silver certificates were not used for the
payment of duties. Should the Treasury
Department increase the amount of coinage,
the use of silver certificates for the payment
of duties would be corrcsponGingly increased
and the government would be wholly de-
prived Of its supply Of gold coin.
