THE PHONOGRAPH. ’ The Present ftate of the Invention—~What It Con Do Now, and \What It May Do in the Future. New York Etening Post, Tho most common mistake regarding Mr. Thomas A. Edlson's latest fnvention, tho phonograph, is that electricity has anything to do with it, or that the machine is at all costly or In an way complicated in Ita working. A report- er of the Evening Poat paid o vislt yesterday to Room' No, 33 fn the Tribune Buding, and what Iollows {s Bu accurate account of what he heard and saw. It is very fortunate for the genlal gentleman who manipulated ths phonograpn for tie nmuscinent and instruction of the crowd of persons who conatantly throng theroom with 8 purzied expressfon on their foces, thatthe days when wizards got thoir deserts at the stake bave passed away. . On o table ncar tho centre of the room was the far-famed phionograph, which can be brielly deseribed as follows: A hollow cvlinder of brass, wbout wuine inches long and five juches fn dlameter, is placed horizantally in very much the samo way that a pioco of wood or metal is placed between the chucks of s lathe to bo turned; a brass rod runs through the centre of the cylinder,and ot the end of this rod ls a little crank whicn cnables ono to turn ths cvlinder around at any rate of speed desired; tho rod to which this handle is fixed has & screw-thread cut on its surince, so that when the eylinder Is turncd it shiita slowly to ono side in such a way that if & pencil s hold in o stationary position against the cylinder while it is tarning fu would traco a Jine llke Lho thread of & styew, Instead of using a pencil & diminutive drum with only one tympanum (the lower one) is used; flrmly attached to the under side of this lower tym- paowin is a small steel poiut liko the point of a needle, When the bottom of this drum fs made to vibrate from any causc—n touch, or even the vibeation of the alr—this steel polut will vibrate with ft, and in this slinple fact is the whoie secrot of the phonograph. A tain sheet of com- mon tin-foll, such &s Is used to wrap tobacco in, {a placed around tho brass cylinder, which is sct in motion; the little arum s now placed so that the polut of the needle just touches the tin-foll. Tho allghtcst movement of tho tym- panum of the drum will make the needio scratch tho surfoco of the tin sheet as the cyliuder moves, - Falkiog {nte tho open end of the drum mives tae -tympanum this necded vibratlon. Buppaose that a scutence olght or ton words long is_spoken fnto the little drum, snd the lino whicls thie needls makes anthe tin sheet, is ex- amined, tha line Is scen to be made up of tiny dots which the polnt of the needle mades where the pitch of the volce was bizh the vibrations of the drum-skin or tympanum were very rapld, and the dots were very closs together; where the volce was deep, thedots wero farther apart. Waere the sound was very loud, the vibrations of the tympanuio were very cuergetic, and the point was pushed far in, and mudo very deep indentations. 1, now, thoncedle point Is plac- ed nt the beginniug of this dotted lino and held ou the lin while the cylinder turns, exactly the sume kind of vibration will be imparted to the drum by the ncedlo nassing over tho fndenta. tlons as the drum imparted to tho needle when the indentations were made. If the indenta- tiona are very close together the vibrations of the drum-skin will be vory rapid, nod the notu heard will be correspondlugly high, and under mnlxr:ry cunditions the noty will bocorrespond- lugly low, q‘l{u volce of the phonograph In Its present stata of pericetion s thatof a porsov talking fu s lowd voice in an adjolning room with the duor closed. Any sound, no matter What, ls faith- fully reproduced. Launmnw, whistling, cough- ing, singing, and ordlnary speaking. The miven. tiou s yeiin its infancy, and what may be tho {mprovemnents which wiil apeedily and grunuhly folluw it is fmpossible to say. Mr. £d already succecded in making the phouograph sufliciently delicate to record and reproduce thie words of a speaker, talking in an ordinary way, four feet fron tho lustrument, Thepower with which the sound can be reproduced deponds on tho species of sounding-board which ts used, and on this point imore declded results wiil no doubt soun bo obtained, At present, in & large roon full of pursonsthers {s no ditficulty in ncarlog the words distinetly from all parts of the root, | pount of talking whichi can bo vecorded on a wwall piece of tin-foll is mar- velous. Mr. Edison has suceceded fu butting 43,000 words on a sheet of tin-foil about ten fnches aquare, Bo far,thin coppor sheuts bave been found to work most satisfoctorily, and it s ?roh:bla that_ diamond voints will ultinately be used.

Steam Distributed Throo, Plpes in City~ Buffalo Frores Birdsfil Holly, of Lockport, N. Y., Is the originator of a new system of conveylog ateam for hieating purposes by means of plpes lafd for long distances under ground. In the month of May, 1870, he put his {deas into an experi- mentically practical shape by placing a small steam buller fn his yard and connecting 500 feet of underground pipe. The result satisiicd him that the plan was entirely feasible. In the month of Jauuary, 1877, a stock company, with a capitsl of $25,000, was formed to test the plan on a largrer scale, under the title of ** The Holl Steam Combination Compauy, limited." K brick boller-house was crected on Elm strect, sl a borlzoutal boller, nixteen feet long and five fcet 1n diamuter, was placed fu poal- tlon, and a lne of = turee-Inch wrousht iron pipe was laid three fect uader grouud for tuo distunve of half s wile. 'This line was pur- pusely laid in the sparsely-scttled portion of o city, for the purpose of testing the power of steam ‘without Interruntion. Junction service- plpes were placed (n the malo pipe at intervals of from 100 to 200 fect, and ot thess polnts and at the terminus of the line tests were mado to determine the amount of condensatiom, the pawer of steam, aud the requlsito sizes of pipe, ‘The resulta from the halt milu of plpe were 50 satislactory thut sdditional piplog was laid, muking s total distanco of n mile sod & third, the izo of the pipe being moditied as follows: Four-{nch pipe was used for the fiest 400 feet, three-inch pipe for the next 1600 fect, two and one-balf fnch for the next 600 teot, and two-Inch for the rest of the line. Iothls distance wero elzitright augles, at corners of strests, and ton valves in tho maln pipe. For the first mile the erade descended twenty feet, for the next quar- ter of a mile it ascended seventv-two feet, and for the reat of the distance it descended forty feet. It was found that of & pressure of forty unds of stean: dellvered to the service pipe at he boller house, o pressure of thirty-two pounds of steam was perceptible st tho end of the hine, showing a loss from {friction and con- densation of but cight pounds. In all thls lne there wers o traps, thus obyiating oue objocs tion which bad been atrongly urged. Twenty dwelliugs scattered on tho llue were counected with the junction service-pipus, and ths teats proved the vutira fossibility of the systom for & district two snd oue-balt miles square, the ox- tent of territory to bo beated depending upon tho sizc of pipe used. It waos found that pipe could bo economically iaid as follows: Oue and one-nalt inch plpe for 1,000 fect, three-tuch for 3,000 feet, sic-inch for $,000 foct, sud tweivos lach for 18,000 feot.
