KolOWLriaGr or THE ANCIENTS.--We be'iev'
that the ancients poscess2d the krowlt.dge of the mariner's
comwhich pass, air-baloons. and locomotive vessels; for the arrow
by Abaris, the Scythian,
was enabled to find his way
through unknown countries
was the magnetic needle. The
self-moving ships mentioned in the Ouyssey were vessels
furnished with
sillswindm that put in motion cars placed at
the ship's side, hirballoon of the moderns is identified
with the invention of Dredalus; and this the more easily,
because he bade hls son IFartis not to fly either too high or too low, for fear of dissolving the 4, Wax,'
by which the ar-
tificial wings were united to his b 00...
y But the " wax" was probably mentioned by the first narrator of the story,
who did not know the procesi t!ll in ti,3
of
Joining pipes,
made in the case of Daedalus to
.imitate the joints of wings,
hy means of luting, or a compositiop. f
