Somewhat over forty years ago. sea
man belonging TO her majesty's ship
Orestes threw himself overheard ms a
means OF escaping punishment for some
ofense. He was picked up by fishing
boat seven hours afteward OF the coast
OF Spain, and stated that be had been
swimming toward the land all the time.
About the same period. two men swan
up the river Mersey from Liverpool to
Runcorn; they accomplished the dis
lance In something less than four hours.
Passing over q long interval. during
which many swims were recorded OF
few hours duration, we come 10 the
more recent exploits of Captain Webb,
certainly the most remarkable swimmer
OF whom we have authentic record.
After some notable achievements in the
Irish sea, he undertook the astonishing
feat of swimming across the whole
breadth of the English Channel, despite
It's very rough sea. On the first attemp3
he could only reach part OF the way, and
was for safety brought back by an at
tendant steamer. His second attempt,
In 1875, was quite successful; he SWAN
for nearly twenty-five hours continu-
ously, from Dover to the French coast
near Calais; he was supplied occasion
ally with refreshments by persons near
ut hand, but he never touched boat or
ground during this prolonged interval.
In the same year young damsel. Miss
Agnes Beckv'ith, daughter of Beckwitb,
the teacher Of swimming. gave clear
proof that the weaker sex is strong
enough TO achieve remarkable results In
this art; she swan down the Thames
from London Bridge 10 Greenwich,
amid the crowded shipping of that part
of the river. In a spirit of emulation,
Emily Parker, daughter of another pro-
fessional swimmer. slightly exceeded
Agnes Beckwith's distance by SWIM
ming from London Bridge TO Blackwall.
Cavill, another swimming master, ac-
complished the distance from Dover to
Ramsgate; he was six hours and q half
doing the feat, but he was more dis
tressed with the heat of the sun beating
down upon bis bead and the sunshine
glaring in his eyes than with fatigue.
Quite recently the London public have
been astonished by proofs of the great
length OF time thai persons can remain
floating with or without swimming. At
the Westminster aquarium Is q large
tank constructed for the temporary re-
ception of a live whale. In this tank
Agnes Beckwith remained anoat for
thirty hours, without touching ground
or sides OF the tank. singing little and
occasionally reading n newspaper to
pass away the dreary monotony, and
taking refreshments handed to her.
The water had a strong infusion Of salt
thrown in It TO increase its buoyancy.
Since that time Captain Webb has
eclipsed everything else of the kind
known. In the recent month Of May he
remained in the whale tank no less than
sixty hours continuously. floating all the
time, and never touching sides or bot

The ways of heaven are inscrutable,
