Bridge between England and
France.

The British Academy Of Science has
at present under consideration plan of
most extraordinary character, being nei>
Their more nor less than suspension bridge
between France and England. M. Fer
dinand Lemaitar proposes to establish an
erostatic bridge between Calais and Do
yer. For this purpose he would construct
strong abutments, to which the platform
would be attached. At distance of 100
yards from the coast, and at the distance
of every 100 yards across the Channel,
he would sink four barges heavily laden,
TO which would be a double iron chain of
peculiar construct. A formidable appara-
tus Of balloons of an elliptical form, and
firmly secured, would support in the air
the extremities Of these chains, which
would be strongly fastened to the abut-
ments on the shore by other chains
Each section Of 100 yards would cost
about 300,000f, which would make eigb j..
ty-four millions for the whole distance
across. These chains, supported in the
air at stated distances, would become the
point of support Of this fairy bridge, on
which the inventor proposes to establish
an atmospheric railway. The project has
been developed at great length by the in
yeutor.

The Two windmills.
A rABLs-BY s. @. GOODRICH.

Two neighbors living on hill,
Had each-and side by side-a mill:
The one was Jones, thrifty wight,
Whose mill in every wind went right.
The storm and tempest vainly spent
Their rage upon it-round it went!
Zen when the summer breeze was light,
The whirling sails performed their flight
And hence village saying rose
As sure as Jones' mill 1t goes.'
Not so with neighbor Smiths, close by
Full half the time it would not ply;
Save only when the wind was 'cesf,
Still as post it stood at rest.
BY every tempest it was battered,
By every thunder gust twas shattered.
Through many rent the rain did filter.
And, fair or foul, twas out of kilter;
And thus the saying came at last,
"Smith's mill is made for folks that fast
Now who can read this riddle right,
Two mills are st ,nding on height
rne whirling brisk whate'er the weather,
The other idle weeks together!
Come, gentle reader, lend thine ear,
And thou the simple truth shalt hear:
And mark, for here the moral turks,
Smith held to faith but not to ,oorks;
While Jones believed IN both, and so,
By faith and practice made ii go !
Smith prayed. and straight sent in his bill,
Expecting Heaven to tend his mill;
And grumbled much whene'er he found
That wheels ungreased would not go round
Not so with Jones, for though as prayerful,
To grease his wheels he e'er was careful;
And healed with ready stitch each rent,
That ruthless time or tempest sent,
And thus, by works, his faith expressed;
Good neighbor Jones by Heaven was blessed
