fallen Leaf, and il nothing is visible on IT. there

The same microscope reveals that the blood

MoDEEN INVENTIONS FoREToLD IN THE TIL R
TENTH CENTURY.-'1 " i'll now, in tie first
place, speak OF some Of the wonderful works of
Art and Nature, that may afterwards assign
the 5ause and methods of them, in which there
IS nothing magical, so that it may oe seen how
interior and worthless ''aIl magic power IS, IN
comparison with these works. And FIRST, &C
cordina to the fashion and rule Of Art alone.
Thus, machines can be made for navigation
without men to row them 50 that ships OF the
largest size, whether on rivers or on the sea,
eau be carried forward, under the guidance OF
a single man, at greater speed ;han II they
were full of men [rowerS In like manner, a
car can be made which will move without the
aid Of any animal, with ncacuable impetuous;
such as We suppose the schythed charlots TO
have been which were ancIently used 10 battle.
Also machine for flying can be made, so that
man may sill in the middle of the machine, tur-
an engine. by which wings artrGcIally disposed
are made to beat the air, after the manner OF a
bird in flight. Also, an instrument, small in
size for raising and depressing almost infinite
weights. than on which nothing on occasion
is G12Ee useful ior wlth aa instrument OF there
of smaller bulk, a man might deliver himself
and his companions from all danger of prison,
and rise or descend. Also, an instrument
might be easily made by winch one man could
draw 10 himself thousand men by force and
against their will, and like manner draw other
things. Instruments can be made for walking
10 the sea or in rivers, even at the bottom
without bodily risk for Alexander the Great

ne Ethical Astronomer relates. These things
we're made ia ancient times, and are made in

The flash of the lightning is nothing
compared with the force of the moveless
stars. The meeting of cloud with clond
from which the thunder springs,is triv-
ial incident compared with the noiseless
marriage of the earth and sun, from which
there comes forth life and all that glad
dens it. The dew transcends the deluge;
the tempest is but temporary destroyer;
the tranquil air is the substance of uni
