CURIOUS CALCULATIoN.-What a noisy crea-
ture a man would be were his voice in pro-
portion to his weight, as that of the locust !.
A locust can be heard at the distance of one
sixteenth of mile. The golden wren is said
to weigh but half an ounce, so that q middle
sized man would weigh down not short of 4OOO
of them; and it must be strange if a golden
wren would not outweigh four of our locust.
SuppOsing, therefore, that a common man
weighed as much as l6, 600 of our locusts, and
that the note of a locust can be heard the sir.
teenth Of mile, man of common dimension
pretty sound in the wind and limbs, ought to
be able to make himself heard at distance
of 1890 miles.
