Crossing the Line.

When the decreasing degrees of latitude an.

it is amusing to remark the satisfaction with
which all the crew, Chose only excepted who
have not crossed it belorc), prepare for the
celebrated naval pastme of Neptune's well

through trumpet, desires to know what ship
1t is that daros to intrude upon his domlnlonsi-
The officer of the watch Immediately answers
through another trumpet, that it Is the good
ship -, which having many oi his visitors
on board (who are, however. sadly IN want of
shayng), entreats favorable voyage. The
reply returned is, that his majesty will visit the
ship earl IN tho morning. Accordingly he ar
rives in a triumphal car supported by his at
tendants. 1t draws up before the cuddy door,
when his majesty. having delivered speech to
the ladies', signfying his will that they shall be
excused the operation of shaving, he retlres,
aud the ceremony for the imitation OF the male
strangers commences. All who have not

THE STRENGTH OF INsEcTs-In a Volume
published by Van Voorst on The Natural
History of animals" several Illustrations are
given OF the super herculean strength with
which the commonest insects are endowcd.-
The common flea, as every one knows, will
without one apparent effort Jump two hundred
times is own length, and several grasshoppers
and locuss are said to be able to perform
! leaps quite as wonderful. In the case Of the
insect they scarcely excite her notice; but II a
man were coolly take a standing leap OF three
hundred an eighty odd yards, which would be
an equivalent exertion of muscular power per-
haps our admirers of athletic sports might
he rather startled at such a performance. a.
| gain. for a man 10 run ten miles within an hour
would be admitted TO be toleraby good dis
play Of pedestransm; but what are we TO say
Of the little fly observed by Mr.. Delise, $50
minute as to be almost invisible which ran
nearly six inches in second, and in that space
was calculated 10 make one thousan and sev-
cnty StepsY T'ni5, accoding TO The calculation
of Kirby and Spence, is as if man. whose
stems measured only two feet, should run at
the incredible rate of 20 miles in minute
Equally surprising are the instances OF the IN
sect strength given by Mr.. Newport. The
great stagbeetle, which tears off the bark from
the roots and branches oftrees has been known
to gnaw hole, an inch in diameter, through
the top Of an iron canister in which 1t was con.
fined, and on which the marks ofits jaws were
distinctly visible. The common beetle can,
without injury, support end even raise very
great weights, and make its way beneath al-
most any amount of pressure. In order to
put the strength Of this insect Atlas to the test,
experiments have been made which do prove
that it is able to sustain and escape from ben
cath load offrom twenty to thirty pounds, a
prodigious burden when it IS rememb bered that
the insect itself does not weigh us many grains
in fact, once more taking man as standard OF
comparison, it is as though person OF ordina-
ry size should raise and get from under
weight of between forty and fifty tons.
AS Coon AS If 1T WERE IN hsoP-I n
Nantucket Islander says the following story
was lately told by reformed inebriate, as an a.
pology for much of the folly of drunkards: "a
mouse ranging about a brewery, happening to
fall into a vat of beer, was in imminent danger
ofdrowning, and appealed to a cat to hel him
out, The cat replied 1T is foolish request,
for as soon as get you out shall eat you.'-
The mouse piteously replied, that would be
far better than to be drowned in beer. The cat
lifted him out, but the fume of the beer caused
puss to sneeze, and the mouse took refuge in a
'ole. The cat called upon the mouse to come
out. Did you not promise that should eat
youP 'Ah', replied the mouse, i did, but /
