The Telephone. , Fur onieiiuie past the Northern jiapera have lecn publishing descriptive explana IVfeksj bria ;peacc (tions of this tronderful invention the Wscliargci on taking Te ejdionc. Wc arc led ta believe from conversations had with a nlimber of per? sons who have read these explanations tliat the true theory and working of the tele phone is not weH comprehended. With out claiming, however, to be a scientist; wc shall attempt to explain the practical workings and the natural laws that gov ern the repeating of sound between two distant ioints without any visible means save a small wire. It is well known that sound, after having bceu produced,'' ..is J carried through the air or other mediums, by vibrations or minute waves called sound waves, with a velocity of 1,120 feet per second. But the telephone re peats a soiiud ma le at one nlace almost instantaneously at another distant poiut. The popular belief is that the telephone actually transmits the sound. This is a great mistake. The only thing transmit ted -is the wavelets of the electric fluid; a dumb messenger only speaking in the pres ence of its receiver. In a whispering gal lery sound can be by reflection concen trated and only heard at a given point, but this is confined to the limits of ordi nary sound. While the telephone has re peated the sound of the human voice in stantly to th-i distance of 143 miles, it is not reasonably to suppose that sound waves would pass through' a wire for so great a distance, nor does it. ' : For example, suppose we designate two telephones as Nos. 1 and 2; we place Xo. 1 in a hall at Wilmington aud the other in like manner --at Faj-ettcvilley --and connect the two by ; an insulated wire. In the hall at Wilmington wc cohvcrsojji the ordinary tone; tho : sound' coucciT tratcd in instrument Xo. 1; as sound it is water. - -Thebaic , freshets have i from the upper sections' but there is yet high walcViu4ns lower 'parts of the river What is loft U rapidly falling olV and in a few days, at the present rate, navigation will nrobablv bc ou ii summer basis of low water The Fruit Crop, We are glad to leant that the fruit crop in the interior has not been seriously in jured after all by the cold and winds of late days.

The tele phone is not a transmitter of sound but actually a rc-creator of souud, through the agency of electricity. This is caused by connecting two of more inst inmcuts, by 'an clectrlc'ial circuit, as is done in tele graphy. When sound . is produced near any one of the machines, in the circuit the instrument is so provided with vi brating membranes and tonges of metal, j corresponding to tnning forks, whose ad justments are so arranged that the vibra tion of these metal tongues open and close the circuit. For example, sound A at. & . Xo. 1 in Wilmington after the sound lias passed into tue instrument, aud at 1 becomes inteusilied by reflection, on tbj principle of the echo,' this puts the vibrating tongues in motion iu t!ic telephone, which causes the ojkju ing aud clos;ng of the circuit, thus. pro ducing waves of elccUioity that pass over thciutujatcd wire from No. 1 to Xol t. As thc-sou:tl wave 6iens and closes the circuit, the electric wave assumes' 'the modulation, form and character of the sound produced, s j far a-r' quant ity and intensity ai ttaiwrp.Pil As you sound A! rlt SDvlcM waves passing; vcr the wire reach No. 2 at .Fayetteville, and pissing through the machiue sets the vibrating membranes aul metal tongue in laotioR. No's. 1 and 2, being in perfee: iiitiwa, by the electric. wave, No. 2 actually sounds A , akiuid- ed in Wilniitigtou. Or by inveii n sound i A at No. 2, you win tiod ih.it- I ,vj peats it. , : ' ' ; ; .' . ' . ' t The number'of ;uranjiU ucd,iu m cirtuic makes iu difference.
