Chambers's Edinburgh Journal, No. 426 Volume 17, New Series, February 28, 1852 The system I have adopted is the Wheatstone's bridge arrangement, with equal sides, never using multipliers except for some experimental purpose. Scientific American Supplement, No. 492, June 6, 1885 Wheatstone also devised an instrument for increasing feeble sound, which he called a microphone. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty His chief scientific interest was optics, and he invented the kaleidoscope, and improved Wheatstone's stereoscope by introducing the divided lenses. The World's Greatest Books — Volume 09 — Lives and Letters Mr. Wheatstone has already made experiments which fully illustrate this point. Experimental Researches in Electricity, Volume 1 THE STEREOSCOPE.—This instrument was invented by Professor Wheatstone, and first described by him in 1838. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 03, No. 20, June, 1859 I use this current for actual working purposes, among others, for measuring the resistance of other selenium cells, with the usual Wheatstone's bridge arrangement, and for telephonic and similar purposes. Scientific American Supplement, No. 492, June 6, 1885 By 1835 Wheatstone had abandoned his plans for transmitting sounds through long rods of metal and was studying the telegraph. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty No extra clerk is wanted by Cook and Wheatstone's, as all messages are written out by a manifold writer. Lands of the Slave and the Free Cuba, the United States, and Canada First patent issued.—Proposal of Cooke and Wheatstone to join forces rejected.—Letter to Rev. E.S. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II But the official trial took place as we have already described in the life of Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph In England, Wheatstone and Cooke had introduced a ponderous magnetic needle telegraph. Edison, His Life and Inventions This is known as Wheatstone's bridge and is still in use in every electrical and physical laboratory. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The proportion of work capable of being done by Bain's, as compared with Cook and Wheatstone's, is: Bain's and one wire = 3; Cook and Wheatstone's and two wires = 5. Lands of the Slave and the Free Cuba, the United States, and Canada Even in England it was superseding the Cooke and Wheatstone needle telegraph, and on the Continent it had been adopted by Prussia, Austria, Bavaria, Hanover, and Turkey. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Wheatstone and he obtained a considerable sum for the use of their apparatus. Heroes of the Telegraph Shortly afterwards, he met in London two distinguished men, Alexander J. Ellis and Sir Charles Wheatstone, who did far more than they ever knew to forward Bell in the direction of the telephone. The History of the Telephone Wheatstone took an active part in the development of the telegraph and the submarine cable up to the time of his death in 1875. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty This current was itself furnished by an insulated battery formed of one hundred and forty-four Wheatstone's pairs, equal to fifty of Grove's. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 05, No. 29, March, 1860 Wheatstone, at any rate, is not in favor here…. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II The end of their conferences was that a partnership in the undertaking was proposed by Cooke, and ultimately accepted by Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph At this time Bell was twenty-two and unknown; Wheatstone was sixty-seven and famous. The History of the Telephone Wheatstone's telegraph would have served the purposes of humanity and probably have been universally adopted, had not a better one been invented almost before it was established. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Professor Wheatstone experimented upon the cable intended to unite La Spezia, upon the coast of Piedmont, with the Island of Corsica. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 05, No. 29, March, 1860 Cooke, who, with Wheatstone, devised the needle telegraph. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Wheatstone subsequently investigated the conditions necessary to obtain electro-magnetic effects at a long distance. Heroes of the Telegraph As he was then in England, his first step was naturally to visit Sir Charles Wheatstone, the best known English expert on telegraphy. The History of the Telephone We have seen that Wheatstone was early trained as a musician. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty This was read on the 14th of February, when the late Sir Charles Wheatstone also brought forward a paper embodying the same principle. Scientific American Supplement, No. 384, May 12, 1883 Neither Steinheil, nor Cooke and Wheatstone, nor Davy, nor Dyar, nor Henry, had at this time made a recording telegraph of any sort. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II This principle was afterwards applied by Wheatstone in the construction of his automatic sender. Heroes of the Telegraph Siemens and Wheatstone almost simultaneously invented so much of the dynamo as was yet incomplete. Steam, Steel and Electricity Sir Charles Wheatstone was then England's leading man of science, and so Bell sought his counsel. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty They had about as much notion of religious tolerance as they had of Professor Wheatstone’s telegraph. Friends in Council — First Series It is obvious at once, from a simple statement of these facts, that the system of Messrs. Wheatstone and Cooke and my system were wholly unlike each other. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II According to his own account he also gave considerable attention to the escapement principle, or step by step movement, afterwards perfected by Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph On Aug. 17th Wheatstone looked at our buildings and was satisfied. Autobiography of Sir George Biddell Airy Thus Bell, the eager student, the unknown youth of twenty-two, came under the influence of Wheatstone, the famous scientist and inventor of sixty-seven. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty On returning to London he made the acquaintance of Professor Wheatstone, of King's College, who was also experimenting in this direction, and in 1836 they took out a patent for a needle telegraph. The Story of Electricity This is easily accounted for from the fact that the two termini are inconsiderable places, and Wheatstone's system clumsy and complicated. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II As James Watt is identified with the steam-engine, and George Stephenson with the railway, so is Wheatstone with the telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph To do this we use an instrument called the Wheatstone bridge. Cap'n Eri It is to be noticed that Great Britain did not join in this testimonial, though Morse's system had been adopted there in preference to the one developed by Wheatstone. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Wheatstone, sitting in a small room near the booking-office at Euston, sent the first message to Cooke at Camden Town, who at once replied. The Story of Electricity On my way from Liverpool I saw at Rugby the telegraph wires of Wheatstone, which extend, I understood, as far as Northampton. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II One of Wheatstone's most ingenious devices was the 'Polar clock,' exhibited at the meeting of the British Association in 1848. Heroes of the Telegraph "I tell you, Wheatstone," said Mr. Ault, with an unmoved face, bringing his fist down on the table, "now is the time to sell these three stocks." That Fortune As in the case of Wheatstone's needle telegraph a dramatic incident was needed to demonstrate the utility of this new servant. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Such was the pioneer instrument of Cooke and Wheatstone, which is still employed in England in a simplified form as the "single" and "double" needle-instrument on some of the local lines and in railway telegraphs. The Story of Electricity Other projects for the establishment of a magnetic telegraph have been broached here, especially from Professor Wheatstone, of London, and Professor Steinheil, of Munich. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Wheatstone's remarkable ingenuity was displayed in the invention of cyphers which have never been unravelled, and interpreting cypher manuscripts in the British Museum which had defied the experts. Heroes of the Telegraph Why," said Mr. Wheatstone, with a look of wonder, "they are about the strongest on the list. That Fortune When he was twenty-one years of age he went to London and there had the good fortune to come to the attention of Charles Wheatstone and Alex J. Ellis. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty When the Wheatstone Automatic Sender is employed with these systems about 500 words per minute can be sent through the line. The Story of Electricity Indeed, I feel almost inclined, at tunes, to destroy the evidences of priority of invention in my possession and let Wheatstone and England take the credit of it. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Cooke and Wheatstone were the first to introduce a public telegraph worked by electro-magnetism; but it had the disadvantage of not marking down the message. Heroes of the Telegraph Mr. Wheatstone laughed and looked admiringly at his leader. That Fortune Wheatstone performed a similar experiment in the Bay of Swansea a few months later. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The apparatus consists of a magneto-electric machine AT, which generates the testing current by turning a handle, and a Wheatstone bridge. The Story of Electricity Does not our patent secure us against foreign interference, or are we to be defeated, not only in England but in our own country, by the subsequent inventions of Wheatstone? Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Wheatstone abandoned his idea of transmitting intelligence by the mechanical vibration of rods, and took up the electric telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph Wheatstone demonstrated by artificial means what was naturally the case in that of the girl here reported. The Journal of Abnormal Psychology, Volume 10 Wheatstone received the young man and listened to his statement of his ideas and ambitions and gave him every encouragement. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty By his most ingenious device of a rapidly rotating mirror, Wheatstone had proved that electricity required time to pass through a wire, the current reaching the middle of the wire later than its two ends. Faraday as a Discoverer Wheatstone and Steinheil have money for their projects; the former by a company, and the latter by the King of Bavaria. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Feeling his want of scientific knowledge, he consulted Faraday and Dr. Roget, the latter of whom sent him to Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph To Wheatstone belongs the credit for devising the apparatus; to Cooke for introducing it and placing it before the public in working form. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The hardiest survivor of them is the Wheatstone apparatus, which has been in successful operation for years. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Wheatstone's researches in the field of electricity were constant. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The telegraph of Wheatstone is going ahead in England, even with all its complications; so, I presume, is the one of Steinheil in Bavaria. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Wheatstone, according to his own statement, remarked to Cooke that the method would not act, and produced his own experimental telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph Wheatstone and others were developing their telegraphs in Europe, and Morse felt that it was high time to endeavor to secure foreign patents on his invention. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The invention of Wheatstone's which proved to be of greatest lasting importance in connection with the telegraph was the automatic transmitter. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Morse strenuously insisted that his telegraph was radically different from Wheatstone's, laying especial emphasis on the fact that his recording instrument printed the message in permanent form, while Wheatstone's did not. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty I have also seen a telegraph exhibiting at Exeter Hall invented by Davy, something like Wheatstone's but still complicated. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Finally, Cooke proposed that they should enter into a partnership, but Wheatstone was at first reluctant to comply. Heroes of the Telegraph The scientific men know little or nothing absolute on the subject: Wheatstone is the only man near the mark.' Heroes of the Telegraph The automatic transmitter brought knighthood to its inventor, Wheatstone receiving this honor in 1868. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Wheatstone by his knowledge of Ohm's law and the electro-magnet was probably able to enlighten him. Heroes of the Telegraph First patent issued.—Proposal of Cooke and Wheatstone to join forces rejected.—Letter to Rev. E.S. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II The following January Alexander Bain took out a patent for an electro-magnetic clock, and he subsequently charged Wheatstone with appropriating his ideas. Heroes of the Telegraph As the Cooke and Wheatstone apparatus became perfected, Cooke was busy with schemes for its introduction. Heroes of the Telegraph They were opposed by Wheatstone and his associates, and could not secure even a hearing from the patent authorities. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty At a second interview, Mr. Cooke told Wheatstone of his intention to bring out a working telegraph, and explained his method. Heroes of the Telegraph It is evident that neither Wheatstone nor Davy comprehended my mode, after all their assertions that mine had been published. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II In 1843 Wheatstone communicated an important paper to the Royal Society, entitled 'An Account of Several New Processes for Determining the Constants of a Voltaic Circuit.' Heroes of the Telegraph In May they agreed to join their forces, Wheatstone contributing the scientific, and Cooke the administrative talent. Heroes of the Telegraph A scientific writer of the day, commenting in a scientific journal on the enchanted lyre which Wheatstone had devised, suggested that it might be used to render musical concerts audible at a distance. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty A sound telegraph, in which the signals were given by the strokes of a bell, was also patented by Cooke and Wheatstone in May of that year. Heroes of the Telegraph Professor Wheatstone and Mr. Davy were my opponents. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II Sir Henry Taylor tells us that he once observed Wheatstone at an evening party in Oxford earnestly holding forth to Lord Palmerston on the capabilities of his telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph The year of the telegraph—1837—was an important one for Morse, as it was for Cooke and Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph He had already exhibited a crude set when he came to Wheatstone, realizing his own lack of scientific knowledge. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Faraday and Wheatstone soon discovered its merits as an insulator, and in 1845 the latter suggested that it should be employed to cover the wire which it was proposed to lay from Dover to Calais. Heroes of the Telegraph I found also that both Mr. Wheatstone and Mr. Davy were endeavoring to simplify theirs by adding a recording apparatus and reducing theirs to a single circuit. Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals In Two Volumes, Volume II The Board of Trade in 1859 had appointed a committee of experts, including Professor Wheatstone, to investigate the whole subject, and the results were published in a Blue-book. Heroes of the Telegraph If it was mainly invented by Wheatstone, it was chiefly introduced by Cooke. Heroes of the Telegraph The two men finally entered into partnership, Wheatstone contributing the scientific and Cooke the business ability to the new enterprise. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty The method was neglected until Wheatstone brought it into notice. Heroes of the Telegraph The following autumn Wheatstone performed a similar experiment in the Bay of Swansea. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1845 Wheatstone introduced two improved forms of the apparatus, namely, the 'single' and the 'double' needle instruments, in which the signals were made by the successive deflections of the needles. Heroes of the Telegraph Besides transmitting sounds to a distance, Wheatstone devised a simple instrument for augmenting feeble sounds, to which he gave the name of 'Microphone.' Heroes of the Telegraph And yet, without belittling the part played by Morse, we must recognize the important work accomplished by Sir Charles Wheatstone. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty At this period Wheatstone made numerous experiments on sound and its transmission. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1840 Wheatstone had patented an alphabetical telegraph, or, 'Wheatstone A B C instrument,' which moved with a step-by-step motion, and showed the letters of the message upon a dial. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1841 a difference arose between Cooke and Wheatstone as to the share of each in the honour of inventing the telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph Morse saw a way out of the difficulty, as Davy, Cooke, and Wheatstone did, by the device known as the relay. Heroes of the Telegraph This explains the fact that Wheatstone attained much scientific success before Morse, though he was eleven years his junior. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Davy was in a fair way of becoming one of the fathers of the working telegraph, when his private affairs obliged him to emigrate to Australia, and leave the course open to Cooke and Wheatstone. Heroes of the Telegraph But we have selected Wheatstone as our hero, because he was eminent as a man of science, and chiefly instrumental in perfecting the apparatus. Heroes of the Telegraph The announcement of Siemens and Wheatstone came at an apter time than Hjorth's, and was more conspicuously made. Heroes of the Telegraph At the age of fifteen, Wheatstone translated French poetry, and wrote two songs, one of which was given to his uncle, who published it without knowing it as his nephew's composition. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1837, the same year in which Wheatstone and Morse were busy perfecting their telegraphs, as we shall see, Edward Davy exhibited a needle telegraph in London. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty Wheatstone's device of the revolving mirror was afterwards employed by Foucault and Fizeau to measure the velocity of light. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1835, at the Dublin meeting of the British Association, Wheatstone showed that when metals were volatilised in the electric spark, their light, examined through a prism, revealed certain rays which were characteristic of them. Heroes of the Telegraph In conjunction with the latter, he also devised an 'automatic curb sender,' or key, for sending messages on a cable, as the well-known Wheatstone transmitter sends them on a land line. Heroes of the Telegraph In 1827, Wheatstone introduced his 'kaleidoscope,' a device for rendering the vibrations of a sounding body apparent to the eye. Heroes of the Telegraph By 1845 Wheatstone had so improved his apparatus that but one wire was required. Masters of Space Morse, Thompson, Bell, Marconi, Carty It afterwards appeared that Herr Werner Siemens, Mr. Samuel Alfred Varley, and Professor Wheatstone had independently arrived at the principle within a few months of each other. Heroes of the Telegraph Wheatstone was knighted in 1868, after his completion of the automatic telegraph. Heroes of the Telegraph Dr. Roget sent him to Wheatstone, where to his dismay he learned that Wheatstone had been employed for months on the construction of a telegraph for practical purposes.
