The Electric Pen.

The simple act of writing never seemed
TO us SO much OF q business as few days
since, when by the kindness Of Prof Craw-
ford OF this city, we were permitted to ex-
pertinent with the electric pen. While
the act Of writing is the same as now, the
machinery at the top of the pen, just over
the knuckle. runs like young engine,
and spins like q buzz-saw. Remembering
the days when we sawed laths, we could
not avoid watching that little wheel with
some misgiving lest we should lose finger.
The noise is exactly that of circular-saw
at work, only very much less. and the way
II sticks holes through the paper is won
der. 1t would be q splendid thing for the
kaftir 10 tattoo with. The value OF this
pen is the same as the copying-press, only
much greater. All the pen does is to stick
holes through the paper as you pass over
Is then used as stencil; common printers
Ink is passed over 10. the page you wish
written on Is placed under 1t, and roller
passed over the whole and the work done.
While 1t can be repeated as often as desired
and as many copies obtained ~ wanted
from this single stencil. 1t 10 even simpler
than printing, and much more rapid.
For those who have q great amount of
writing to do where many copies of the
same document are to be used, it 10 simply
indispensable. The instrument used by
Prof. Crawford was furnished by the
his labor beyone calculation, besides secur-
ing an accurancy and neatness to his work
which could not be had by the old process
We have been wondering IL 1t co.id moi
be made to write sermons, editorials, and
-and-well to collect old accounts. Ifii
could, il would indeed be a thing Of beauty
and joy forever.
The instrument described above
has been in use for nearly o year by
the editor of the UNITARIAN ADvo.
CATE, who is agent for this Territory.
1t will do all that is claimed above
and much more-it even assists in
collecting debts by way of sending Q
gentle reminder in the way of o cir.
cular letter to all who are in arrears.
For information, write to D. N. Ut.

A Washington dispatch OF the 18th
says the auditor OF the railroad accounts
to-day received from the California
Office Of the Cantral Pacific Company
all the reports required by him under
tho provisions of the Thurman law, ex-
hibitiug the business of that coGpany
from July LIST, 1877. to September 3Uth.
1879. Auditor French pronounces the
reports very full and satisfactory. and
says that no further action will be
taken on the suits for forfeiture, etc.,
which were instituted by the Govern
ment against the company last spring,
for previous Noncompliance with this
requirement" The auditor remarked
that au erroneous statement had been
published in some quarters to the effect
that payment WAS made under protest to
the Central Pacific Company. This
still leaves that company III debt to the
Government 900. .n01 on account Of
the six months ended last December.
Pay L4'H1 '"'"'Su "'' iS-
quirements of the Thurman act. and Of
all other existing laws in regard TO that
period. Auditor French has, however,
made demand upon the company for
S6O,OOO which he claims should be
paid into the United States Treasury in
compliance with alleged requirements
OF the original Pacific railroads acts,
for the payment Of . per cent. Of the
net earnings prior To June 3Oth, 1878.
