Concluded

N'rOiO'AhN W.
With regard to the speed which may
be attained, fifteen miles an hour, under
the most favourable circumstances that
is, good hard road, not level, but without
very steep hills, and no wind blowing, is
PROBABLY the limit Of The ve~Iocipede's
powers but a pace of nine or ten miles
an hour may be maintained for five or six
hours without distress. Loug Journeys
on level road are perhaps the most taligu-
lug, Oh account of their mouotony, be-
cause then the feet, as in walking, are
nearly always at work. Still, even in
this case, the driver can maintain his
speed with one foot, resting the other on
the lcg-rest; or, if disposed, he may even
place both feet on The rests, and run four
or five hundren yards without working at
all. The slightly increased labour of
climbing a hill is nothing to the zest i'm
parted by a knowledge that there Is sure
to be a hill the other side to 90 down,
and that is the most luxurious travelling
that can be imagined. Descending an in
cline at full speed, balanced on a beauti-
fully tempered steel spring that takes
every Jolt from the road-Wheels spinning
over the ground SO lightly they scarce
seem to touch 1.-THE drivers legs rested
comfortably on the cross-b4r ia front
shooting the hill at a. speed of thirty or
forty miles an hour-the sensation is only
comparable TO that of flying, and is worth
all the pains it costs in learning to expert
ence it. The velocipedist feels but one
pang when he reaches the bottom Of a
hill, and that is, that it is over; and but
one exquisite wish, which is, that the
entire country might somehow become
metamorpho<ed into down.hill. But the
hill is bounjiCuI even after one has left it,
for the impetus derived from a good in
cline will carry the rider at least the hills

his feet from the rests and commence
Jerking egalu The slightest incline on
rood road is sufficient 10 ohviate all ne
s.tv for working with the feet, so that
#uG little labour there is (aud it is of the
easiesi), is by no means incessant. In a
journey of twenty miles on good road, a
driver should not work more than Twelve
the |incIines do the rest. OF course,
there are hills so steep that to ascend
tseG- Is impossible yet, for myself, living
IL = billy country, which | have pretty
Wei explored on my two-wheeled steed,
l can reckon up their number on the flu
gers of one hand, There are also hills
where the Iabour becomes as much as, or
more than, walking, but these must be of
a gradient something like one in twelve,
and such hills are not frequent. When
they do occur, the rider may, if he will,
dismount. 1t is a subject of smiling pity
to many of the uninItiated to behold a
yrIocipedlst dragging his horse after him
up a hIIl-and cruelty realised, too, in the
cas-" of three and four wheeled machines;
but the bicycle is better than any walk
lng-stlck to assist a person up an incline,
even when only walking beside it. Rest
ing one elbow on the saddle, and leaning
the weight Of the body on that, while
guiding he handle with the other hand,
the machine becomes a positive assistance
instead of an imcumbrance. This sounds
like fiction, bat it is fact. ECpertO crede,
There are persons who advertise to
teach the use of the velocipede in "a few
hours Not long ago an e~nterprislng
French master advertised to teach the
French language (n the intervals of sea-
sickness) during the voyage from Dover to
Calais. 1t should not be concealed that
it requires as much time to learn the use
of the bicycle as to learn to skate-and
there are also occasional falls incidental
to learning either. To urge the time ne
CeSsary to acquire its use as an objection
against the tWo-Wheeled steed, would,
however, be manifestly unjust. So diff
cult is it to balance the human body on
merely two small legs and a pair of feet,
in an upright position Ga position such as
would be scarcely possible to make an
exact model of a mau, even WithOut life,
retain for a single instantly, that it has
taken most of us a twelvemOnth to learn
how to do that. It is sufficient to say
that q person may attain the management
of a two-wheeled steed in less time than
that of a fourfoOted one, and when he has
done so, for speed, endurance, and mex
p%enSlvenesS, the former will at least bear
favourable comparison with the latter.
AS in skating, a weeks steady and persev-
ing practice is needful to acquire a COM
Portable balance, and gain control over
the unacustomed form of support. The
falls referred to above, as happening in
learning the velocipede, are NOTHING to

As a laundry man, the Chinaman is
pretty good, provided be don't eat up
your clothes once a month by the appli-

so as to make washing easy st your
expense. That's his style in Washoe.
As a house servant, here in Washoe we

white, ana has even produced death
itself, and there is no reason to doubt
that from the same cause many persons
afflicted with hydrophobia have died
who might otherwise have been re-
stored to health. A horrible instance
Of the promptings of fear in such cases
occurred in Wisconsin short time
since. \ boy aud a girl were bitten
by deg presumed to be mad They
had not yet been attacked by the dread
disease. but nevertheless the physician
(?) advised the actual murder of the
children TO prevent the possibility of
their death by hydrophobia ! As hor-
rible at it may seem, the suggestion of
the quack was coneurred in by the
parents, the boy Js3ng jle9 to death and
the girl being smotherei 1cih palo'cs! We
trust the laws of Wisconsin will pun
ish adequately at least the charlatan
through whose advice these diabolical
murders were perpetrated.
