THE FLYING MACHINE.
An ingenious Brenchman, who mas been a student
in the complexities Of the atmosphere for many
years, has invented q dying machine by which men
ny out OF Parts This plan Is regarded by all as
not only correct In principle, but well adapted to
practical application. 1t consists OF two spiral
wings. OF much the same conical CONGREGATIONS as
the point Of screw, both Of which move on spin
dies and are operated by traadle. The man who
occupies the machine is seated in chair, and to
either side are the aforesaid wings. direct revo-
luton OF these propellegs gives an upward move
ment reversed revolution downward move
menf. The flyer, desiring to rise, takes the chair
puts the apparatus in motion, and finds himself
rising on an easy ascent TIL he reaches the Hottest
point desirable. Then, by modifying the applica
ton Of The treadle he goes IN any horizontal direc
tion turning In circle with marvellous facility. In
going down all danger is avoided by employing o
canvas cover, regulated in ascending and descend
ing, which in going up Is sort OF protection, but
which In going down acts as parachute.
The authorities also believe that this machine Will
prove CT the happy means OF populatIng the air
with persons Of too elevated notions to reside In

Paris is growing wan; her camps are thinning
out: her resources are daily diminishing Prepared
for three months OF investment, she will soon show
signs OF coming exhaustion should not her exter-
nal communication be opened and peace be restored.
It's well therefore 10 make an Inventory Of her
gross resources as they stand now, after one week
OF sege in other words to analyze her precise con-
dIon and ascertain her actual strength. Paris has
been credited with population OF 100000 OF peo-
pie. OF these 1t Is estimated that 100000 have ned
the city, because OF the expected ence of the Prus-
sians In this estimate embraced oil foreigners,
all the rich, those naturally towards, and the large
exodus OF women and children. The figures taken
at large, therefore, show the following facts:-
