THE SECRET OF BLoNplN's SUCCESS.

The SECRET OF BLONDlN'S SUCCESS.
From The Nc~ York Century, A"g"st 27.l
The Wonderful power that Blond;n possess
es of balancing himself, is the point Of curios-
ity and amazement to the crowd. By cX
planning little of the philosophy of this feat,
we NAV lessen the establishment otsome pee
ple, and perhaps remove the chief difficulty
to u rational amount of selfculture, resulting
in on improvement OF the nervous system.
The common toy of man spinning on the
point of a WIRE explains the whole matter
The centre of gravity is lowered to the base
and there it is easily preserved. The use Of
the polc answers the same purpose. Blond
ms pole is thirty-four feet long, and weighs
forty six pounds. Held below the middle Of
the body, it brings his centre of gravity suff-
GENTLY near to the rope to be easily controll-
ed. \ very slight elevation of one end and
a corresponding depression of the other res
torres the balance ofthe body. The skill to
govern the position, by an exact movement
of the pole to the required extent, and not an
inch further, results from practice. Those
who have seen " the infant phenomenon" Of
tue Ravel troupe on the tight-ropc, must have
observed the imperfect management OF the
pole in less experienced hands. Philosophi-
cally, Blondin and his pole constitute one
body, andthe extension literally Gifts weight,
is equivalent to lowering the centre of gray
ity, or charging the base on which he walks.
The most perilous exploit of NJ. Blondln is
that of carrying man on his back: Here ne
runs a frighttul risk, because he cannot
command the nervous system Of another per-
son. 10 this experiment he will fall avictim,
if he persists in it, The slightest trcpidation
of nerve in the carried body will imperil his
centre of gravity and put it out of his COM
mand in spite of the skill with which he
adjusts the weight rest as much as possible
on his hips, and rs little as possible on his
shoulders. Travellers over mountains are
warned by their guides to sit passively on the
mule, without attempting to direct the ami
NAL. This is what Il man must do who rides
on Blondin' back, his own command OF nerve
must be equal to that of his master, or he
cndangers both. The fact of dismounting
several times proves that it was so, and that
he did not avail himself of any trick in shut
ting his eyes from the abyss below.
This is the whole explanation of NJ. Blond
ms feat-his lowering of the centre OF grav-
ity near to the base, and his amazingly skill
full government oft We would not advise
any one to try hazardous experiments; but
the truth of this explanation may be tested
by walking on the edge of a board firmly fixed
in the required position on the ground or
floor and by using or dispensing with the
balancing pole, or other weight, to control
the centre Of gravity.

"NOT ONE OF THEM AR SORT"

The New Orleans Delta tells the following
good one.
At session of the Circuit Court of Missis-
sippi, in some country town, the lawyers who
were in attendance were in the habit Of putt
ing up at a house of entertainment kept by q
buxom widow lady, of o very high sense of
propriety, and great dignity of department.
This lady always presided at the head of the
table during meals, and the place of honor
on her right was regarded rs due to the
most staid, proper and elderly member Of
the Bar.
Byunanimous consent ofthe lawyers, Colo
nal B, very modest, discreet and plous
counsellor. was selected for this distinction.
Now, though possessing many sterling v'r,
tues, Col. B, possessed one weakness, but
it was not weakness of the head or OF the
heart, but of the eyelid.
Iehad the habit of winking necessarily and
invountarily, which, with persons who did
not know the cause oft, left an uniavorablc
impression Of the Coloners seriousness and
sincerity. He was eternally being suspected
of what he was the last man to conceive OF,
to vita design ofjokins or quizzing every
body, all on account of the perpetual motion
Of his cyelids.
When, on the first occasion the C"lonel
took possession of the seat nearest to ''mne
hostess" his bland and amiahic expression
and dienifed address created quite tavora-
BILE impression upon her ladyshIp. The
soup was over. and the h"stneSs began to
DIV the Colonel with various tempting dishes,
ali of which he accepted or declined, with II
pleasant smile; and with his invariabie wink.
At last it was perceptible, to the company,
that the hostess was eyeingher distinguished
guest rather inquiringly and Significantly y;
these chances were always met by the Colo
mel with his usual smile and wink. But
these amiable demonstrations were far from
producing the effect designed upon Madam,
who began to frown and look very ti'rca-
teninely mt the innocent Colonel, who only
smiled aud winked the more iascinatingy.
Finally, however, to the very great horror
of the Bar, and the utter annihilatlon OF the
worthy Colonel, the HOSTESS slapped the ia
BILE Indignantly with her right hand, and Tx
Ing her eyes very pointedly and fiercely upon
the object of her wrath, cried out at the top OF
her voice: .,.
"You sanctified, weazen-face old villain;
I'll let YOU know Pm not one of them ar sort.
What might have followed this explosion
of wrath, it would be impossible to eonJec-
ture, as the unfortunate posseSsor otthe weak
eyeld decamped in haste from the post OF
honor and never after could be persuaded TO
net the agreeable to buxom widows.
