A Curious Faci.-We see it ST lteI as a curious
fact in an English paper, that a thirty Two pound
ball, Of nearly six inches in diameter, when
fired through the timbers ola ship,scarcely makes a
hole larger than might he momentari!y repaired
By the, carpenter with a piece of wood Of the thick
ness of a middle sized walking stick. This is ac-
counted for, by the velocity of the ball passing
through, causing the wood TO c~ollap<e to nearly
the original state. We are not practically ac-
quainied with this subject, bat nevertheless dis
posed TO question the accuracy Of the above state-
ment. If true, it is a curious fact. But we shall
require further evidence, before we believe that a
thirty two FOUNDER ball, passing through a ships
timber, makes a hole no bigger than a mans
thumb = Boston Journal.
