Theformer operates the magnet of tlie transmitterthe object of which is to send uniform currentsto the line, and also to short-circuit the phone,each time the coil battery circuit is broken,and thus obviate the annoyance which wouldotherwise be caused by the violent dischargeclose to the diaphragm. In a small magnet. Fig. 13, is stored the en-ergy which is exerted on the line for the purpose of operating the phones. As it is necessary to produce an instantaneous dis-charge, a condenseris connected around the points ofthe transmitter, which makes and breaks the circuitaround the coil. The key. Fig. 14, is
