ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE.

The pressure or weight of the atmosphere, as
shown by the barometer the sucking and air pumps
is near pounds on every square inch, so that al
we could entirely squeeze out the air between our
two hands, they would cling together with a force
equal to the pressure Of double this weight because
the air would press upon both hands; and If we
could contrve to suck or squeeze out the air be-
tween one hand and the wall, the hand would stick
fast to the wall, being pressed on it with the weight
of above two hundred weight, that's, near l5pounds
on every square inch of the hand BY late most
curious discovery of Sir Everard Home, it is found
that this is the very process by which flies and other
insects of similar description are enabled to walk
no perpendicular surfaces, however smooth, as the
sides of walls and panes of glass in windows, and to
walk as easily along the ceiling OF room with their
feet over head. Their feet, when examined by a
microscope, are found to have flat skins OF flaps,
like the feet of webfooted animals, as ducks and
geese and they have towards the back part or
heels, but inside the skin flap, two very small
toes, so connected with the flap to draw it close
down upon the glass or wall the fly walks on, and to
squeeze out the air completely, so that there is a
vacuum made between the foot and the glass or
wall The consequence is that the air presses the
foot on the wall with force greater than the weight
of the fly which is thus retained in its position
has likewise been found that some OF the larger sea
animals are by the same construction, enabled to
climb the perpendicular and smooth surface 81 the
ice-hills among which they live. Some kinds OF
lizards have the same power of climbing and Of
creeping with their bodies downwards, along the
ceiling of room. In the large feet of those AM
mails the conrivance is easily observed, of the two
toes or tighteners, by which the skin of the foot is
pinned down and the air excluded in the act OF
walking OF climbing but it is the very same,
only upon larger scale, with the mechanism of a
hys or a buttery's foot; and both operations, the
|cmbing ofthe sea-horse on the ice and the creep
ling ofthe fly on the window or the ceiling, are per,
formed exactly by the same power, the weight OF
the atmosphere. paper

chief mean of gain to the savages their dependence

subsistence and trap for gain. They make their way
there in armed partnerships, fitted out kind Of
