Novel Use of the Telephone.

Various are the surprises which
blossom out of that wonderful in
strument, the telephone. In
France they have applied it for
marine purposes. The French
war steamer Desaix had to tow out
from Toulon the old ship Argon-
ante. A conducting wire was
rolled around one of the towing
cables, with an end on each of the
vessels. The electric current was
formed by the action of the sea on
the copper sheathing of the ships.
A telephone was introduced in the
circuit of each and communication
established between them. Dur
ing the whole time of the naviga-
ton conversation was carried on
as easily between the officers of
the two vessels as if they had been
seated in the same cabin. The
next step was to apply the tele
phone to the work of the driver.
One of the glasses of the helmet is
replaced by a copper plate, in
which is inserted telephone, so
that the man has only a slight
movement of the head to make in
order to receive communications or
report observations. The advanta-
ges of such an arrangement are OBJ
vious. Frequently at sea the ne
cessity arises of examining the
keel or bottom of ship. The di-
yer descends, and is able to give
an account of all he sees and does
and receives instructions without
having to be brought to the sur
face to give explanations, as has
hitherto been the case. By the
use of the telephone a man at the
bottom of the sea can remain in
constant verbal communication
with those at the surface. But the
most singular application of the
telephone comes from New South
Wales, whore Mr.. Severn, an enthu-
siastic experimental, claims that he
has made the deaf to hear with it.
After describing a very simple
telephone which he constructed
out of tin pot, the closed end of
which he opened and tied over it
piece of parchment, passing a fine
string through the center and
making a knot inside, Mr.. Severn
says: "Make a loop IN the string
some three feet long, put this loop
over the forehead of the listener
1.-THE deaf man cause him to place
the palms of his hands fiat and
hard against the ears, let the loop
pass over the hands, and now this
listener will hear the smallest whis-
per, let him be deaf or not. This
fact may appear extraordinary; it
is, nevertheless, true that a deaf
man may thus be made to here the
voice, music, etc."

THE WATER WORKS COMPANY.

Tomorrow the new Waterworks Company
will complete it's organization by the election
of it's officers, the four directors appointed by
the city and the three elected by the stock
holders participating in this election. The
directors appointed by the Mayor are Messrs
Archibald Mitchell, E. A. Palfrey, Joseph
Bayle and w. w. Washburn, and the three
elected by the stockholders are Messrs. Paul
Fourchy, Edward Toby and Pablo SaIa.
All these gentlemen are prominent citi-
zens of New Orleans and well known
for their business abilities, which gives
the best assurance that whomsOever
they may select tomorrow to preside over
the affairs of the company lin which every
member of this community should take an
INTEREST," will be gentleman thoroughly
competent to fill the Onerous position. Thus
far the names Of Messrs Paul Fourchy and
Edward Toby have alone been mentioned in
connection with the office, and we are led to
believe that on the day of the election there
will be only one candidate, who will receive
the unanimous vote of the direction.
After the first of June next the representa-
ton of the city in the board OF directors
changes. The stockholders will then elect
four directors, whilst the city will be repre-
sented in the board by the Mayor and the
Administrators Of Finance and Waterworks
and Public Buildings.

SPECIE RESUMPTION.
she rman to Appear Before the House
COmmittee To. MOrrOw.


Committee TO-MOrrOw.
WASHINGTON, March 31.-Secretary Sher-
man will be heard tomorrow by the House
Committee on Banking and Currency, spe-
cial meeting having been appointed for that
the committee will give him searching ex-
animation as to his ability to resume specie
payment on or before the first OF January
next. They have some posers to put to him,
which it will trouble him to answer. They
claim that they will be able to break down
his testimony before the Senate Committee
on Finance and make him show by his own
statements and admissions that resumption
for the present Is hopeless. A number of
New York bankers will also be heard during
the week.
The Banking and Currency Committee expect
be called during the week, and they have
three bills ready to report. The first one to
be reported is Mr. Buckners bill, providing
for the retirement Of all national bank notes
outstanding, and the substituting therefor of
treasury notes The second bill is Mr.. Phil
lips postal savings bank bill; and the third
Mr. Hardenburg's BILL authorizing the ma
tional banks to purchase four per cent bonds
with their reserve fund, and hold the same as
a reserve.
This reserve amounts to about S1OO,OOO,OOO,
and should this bill become q law it will
enable the Secretary of the Treasury to place
this amount of four per cents and retire an
equal amount OF six per cents, and cause a
saving of $2,00O,00O per annum in interest.
The only opposition to this measure which
has thus for been developed comes from the
ultra-inflationists. The present indications
are, however, that it will pass the House by q
respectable majority.

Overflow,
fVicksburg Herald

It is safe now to assume that all danger Of
even a partial overflow OF the Mississippi
Valley this season is past. The Mississippi
river is falling rapidly all the way down
decline must set in here The river is not
bank full, and there was fall Monday at
Cairo Of nineteen inches, at Memphis OF
twelve inches, at st. Louis OF four inches.
The Ohio declined at Cincinnati nineteen in
ches, and the Missouri is falling. TO pro-
duce an overflow of the valley it is necessary
for all, or nearly all OF the great tributaries
to come out at flood tide together. 1t is true
that it is possible for it To set in at almost
any season ofs&he year and rain sufficient
quantity of water to produce an inundation,
but the indications are that this is extremely
improbable now. In 1875 it rained 80 much
in August that there came very near being
an overflow, but such long and continued
ent the signs point more to an early low
water than to q dangerous high water.

TIE TARIFF BILL.
A Preliminary Vote in Congress ON the
Tariff Question.
Cincinnati Commercial


WASHINGTON, March 26.-The vote in the
House to-day on the subject Of fixing the
fourth Of April for the consideration Of the
tariff bill, signifies that the majority of the
members are willing to give the Ways and
Means Committee a chance to be heard, and
also to afford an opportunity for the delivery
Of the sixty or more speeches. OF which notice
has already been given. The committee has
no reason for encouragement. The vote
showed that Ia members are unequivocally
opposed to any action whatever upon the tariff
question, and it is estimated that Of the 1877 who
voted to fix a day for beginning discussion,
at least forty will vote against the bill
when it comes to final action. The aye vote
consisted of 121 Democrats and Is Republic
ans. Eight of the Republicans were from
New York, three from Illinois, three from
South Carolina, one from North Carolina and
one from Ohio-the last being Cox. Garfield
did not vote. New England, with the excep-
ton OF Jones, Of New Hampshire, and Phelps,
of Connecticut, voted solidly against taking
up the bill at all. Only nine Democrats
seven from Pennsylvania, one from Maryland
and one from New Jersey-voted against fix
ing day. An effort is being made by the
Democrats to force this bill upon their asso-
ciates as party measure, but it Is uphill
work.

Freeman Republican, who was absent yester-

the Democrat. This would have kept Dean
out, but that John Taylor Jones Democrat
of Alabama, who yesterday voted for Field,
to-day changed and voted for Dean, making a
difference Of two votes and thereby seating
Dean. The excitement was very great during
