This morning, between seven and eight o'clock, the

the principal gateway on the Fleet street side of Tern-

past. No carriages were passing at the instant, other.

Master WILLAND, who played the part of a monkey
in the new entertainment at Drury-lane Theatre, met,
as we have already stated, with an accident on Tuesday
evening, by falling from a height of 10 ft et. The
Duke of Susan. who witnessed the accident, has sent
several times to make inquiries.
MUSCULAR Svazaravu..—The muscular power of the
human body is wonderful. A Turkish porter will run
along carrying a weight of 600 pounds; and Milo, of
Crotona, is said to have lifted an ox weighing upwards
of 1,000 pounds. Haller mentions that he raw an in•
stance of a man, whose finger being caught in a chain
at the bottom of a mine, by keeping it forcibly bent,
supported by that means the weight of his whole body,
150 pounds, till he was drawn up to the surface, a
height of 600 feet. Augustus 11. King of Poland,
could, with his fingers, roll up a silver dish like a sheet
of paper, and twist the strongest horse shoe asunder;
and a lion is said (Phil. Trans. No. 310) to have left the
impression of his teeth upon a piece of solid iron. The
most prodigious power of the muscles is exhibited by
fi,h. A whale moves with a velocity through the dense
medium of water, that would carry him, if continued
at the same rate, round the world in little more than a -
fortnight; and a sword fish has been known to strike I 1."1,0,,; printed and Published by Aim hum, six prefrieteet
