The question will probably bo voted on next Tuesday at the regular village election, Under an agreement entered into by the two towns the copartnersblp can be dissolved by either party giving, due notice, after which the other town would be obliged to buy or sell its interest in the works. The town selling would hays to bulld new works or make are raugements with the city to be supplied with water, Untll quite recently the supply of water hos been furnished by a Holly piston pump which has been iu continual use for five years. It was found necessary to procure an additional pump to supply the increased qemand for water in the two towns, and to provide against accl- dent to the Holly pump. — Soveral months ago Col. J. T.

An Interview with the President of tl “American Rapid Telegraph Company "— Ite BlectrosMechanical Instenment,” New York Heratd, March 27. ‘The newest ond most daring attempt fo the direction of killlng time ts the invention of a machine for the transmission of Intelligence to any distance at a specd of 60,000 words au hour over oue wire. s This ambitious project has long filtcd the minds of a number of gentlemen, and many ex- periments in all the various modes of utilizing. electricity have been nade, with a view to axcer- toluing what extsting apparatus showed most susceptibility of improvement. Long and cure. ful study pointed to the “automatic! sys- tem of sending messages as offering most promise of great rapidity, ani accordingly the projectors of the scheme turoed their whoto attention to overcoming its defects, They claim that their efforts have been entirely succeas{ul, and that the ' Electro-Mechanical telegraphing instrument, which they have re- cently patented, {6 the most accurate aud most rapid agent for trausmitting Intelligence now fu existence, They assert that, in a long course of experiments made with a completed instru- ment, the best results have been obtained, and they have organized into a company for the prac- tical application of their system to the busineas wante of the community. “Thev baye adopter the title of the “American Rapid Telegraph Company"; they state that they bave a capital of $3,000,000, und they promise to commences immediately the erection of lines betwece Bus. ton and Wushington, taking tn New York, between the last-mentioned city ond Chivago. ‘They hope to have these Ines completed aut tn operation before the end of the curreut year. ‘The date of the organization of the Company was Feb, 23 last, when Edwin Reed, of Matue, was elected Presideut; Thomas Wallace, of Connecticut, Vice-President; and L, 8, Hapford, of Boston, Treasurer. A Herald reporter called to sen Mr. Reed ves- terday at the Company's offices, No. 41 Wail street, aud received mach information from hin aa to the intentious of the Company, aud the details of the instrument by which they propose to accomplish their plans. “You see," satd Mr. Reed, “ when a messayo coines to us, the first thing we do ts to record it on ® paner-tape by punching small holes, which are arranged to correspond with the dots and dashes of the Morse ssstcm. Along one edge of the tape run the positive impreesions, and along the other the negative. We have s machive for do- ing this punching work; and I would draw nt- tention tu the pecullarity that it apaces the varl- ous letters according to their length. ‘The letter ‘E' is ropreseuted by one dot, therefore the tape is fed out only a little way; ‘tl takes five dots, therefore a longer pleco of tape {fs allowed to run ont when it fe to be printed; and so all difficulty fn reading {s obyiated."? Mir. Reed then exhible- ed the Instrument by which this work fs done, It looks like a combination of a small plano und a sewing-machine, Twenty-cight keys curre- spond to the letters of the alphabet and needed stops, and a treadle causes the tape to more, its apeed being regulated by attachments f just been increased rease fn ponula- rf to the keys. <A simple devicu also provides for the rewinding of the tape for the sending machine. Mr. Reed added that the puoching could be done at the rate of 2,000 words an hour, und sid thut the Company intended to send machines out to the offices of all persons who have much telegraphic correspondeuce, 80 that the punching mizht be done there by clerks or type-writers. Then,” he sald, the “tapes could bs sent to the oflice of the Company instead of manuscript. The Com- pany will,” be sald, “bave o large number of these machines, sv that, when long messages come fn, they can be divided up and punched fu a very few nilputes.”" “Now as to the actual telegraphing of the dispatch that can bu done at the rate of at least 1,000 words a minute,” said Mr. Reed. “The repared taps fs put in another machine, where- In it passes over a metallic cylinder. ‘The needle points press on it, which are connected with the poles of a galvanic battery, That which leads from the negative polo Js placed over the hegative row of holes {fn the tape; the other, convected with the positive pute, runs over the positive row of holes. ‘The metal cylinder fs connected by a Wire with a needle-polot at any distance off, which tu turn eases On another tape,—the recelying one, — likewise running over acylinder, Sido by side with this pumt fs. another, the wire of which runs lato the ground, as does alsd one of the wires of the double buttery which ‘ls used to provide the curreut. Now, suppose the first eylinder to bo revolved, you will sca that, every tlme a holo in the tupe comes under either of the points, the point touches the metal cyHoder and a current {a excited, running elther way, according ag the hole ia uuder the positive or negative pole. As thiscurrentstriitcs the recelving-tape, it decomposes certain salts of fron with which it is impreenated, and priute dots and dashes, according 4s the holes run in the original tape, Now, as the poaltive and neg- ative inpressions are arranged apart, side by side, there Is no fear of the hnpessiois runnin fnto one unbroken Nue; and so the rapidiy with which the dispatch can be forwarded is only limited by tho speed with which the first eyl{i- der is rovolyed. The chemical tapes is finally iaced in the bands of copyists, who cao rentor I juto manuscript at a of 1,500 words an hour. Some compositora would rather read from {t than from writing, and in the case of Jong dispatches the Company will pruvide for thelr rapid completion by dividing them among several hands.
