tains Il description of "a new microphone
invented by NJ. Trouve, which seems to
possess several advantages over the or.
binary form of that instrument. The
apparatus has the appearance ola dark
lantern, the candle of which is replaced
by stick of carbon. 1t consists of tive
dies Of carbon, between which carbon
pencil, pointed at both ends, plays loose.

on a watch, ticking is reproduced at i
distance by the telephone, together will.
the sound of talking, the noise Of foot
steps, or the slightest vibration of the
table due to any contact with it.
If the microphone is suspended
by the conducting wires, it is
extremely sensitive to atmospheric
vibrations, reproducing words spoken a;
q distance Of twenty-five yards from the
microphone, while, on the other hand.
the ticking Of the watch placed upon the
stand, or slight contacts with the table
on which the latter is placed, are scarce

suspended in the middle Of an apart
mcnt, the microphone reveals all its Sc
cretS; the timbre of the voice being as
perfect rs though two telephones were
used. Whether the instrument be sus-
pended or not, the sounds produced
BY any insect imprisoned within it are
magnitied and reproduced. lii another
form Of the instrument the two disks 81
carbon are supported by a central stem,
the carbon pencil being placed laterally.
The upper disk is movable upon the
stem; SO that the instrument may be
adjusted by giving any desired obliquity
to the carbon pencil. In any form o;
the instrument the greatest sensitive.
ness is obtained when the carbon penci
stands perpendicularly, and the Least
degree Of sensitiveness when it is placed
horizontally. The ordinary telephone

00O,0G0 in favor of the United

vember balance in our favor that has
been noted since records have been
kept, which is one of the duIlest months
of the year. The balance of trade in
our favor for five months of the cur
rent fiscal year, commencing July
/, is Sl13, 904,0S4, an increase Of
nearly 100 per cent over the
balance in our favor for the correspond
ing months Of last year. The balance
in our favor for the twelve months end
ing Nov. so, 1878, is $309,309,741 while
that for the twelve months ending Nov
80, 1877, was only Sl40,7 500
This shows the growth of our com
mcrce in single year, and returns for
the calender year Of 1873, which are
complete, with the exception of the
last fifteen days Of December,
show that the balance Of trade
