presenting the outlines of plan for defending
COnstantinople on the land side. Few cities
in the world are so well situated for defence
as Constantinople. A properly devised tor

A GYMNAsTIC PIG. And now is this-that
is 10 say, in the year 1876, a Kentucky pig
has suddenly developed a genius for gymnas-
tics and engineering which eclipse the proud
est previous achievements of his race. This
eminent pig was recently placed by his
owner i'm pasture surrounded by a high wall
and ornamented by elm tress festooned with
wild grapevines. The walls however could
not cOnfiDe his bold and vagrant spirit. Sc
Letting tree standing near the Western wall
of the pasture, he carefully bit loose the lower
end stout grapevine which was attached by
its tendrils to a limb on tree, and taking
this imprOvised rope his mouth, swung him
self in the air until he had gathered an i'm
petus which sent him entirely over the wall
and landed him in the next field. Though
often recaptured, he has constantly repeated
this extraordinary feat, and his Intelligent
ownef, instead of cutting down his elm trees to
restrain his pigs wandering propensity, has
wisely decided TO educate him for the trapeZe
business, provided so noble spirit proves
willing TO minister to the amusement of q
circus audience.
