The Panther,s Lean.

A gentleman Of truth said this to me:
at was in Canada some years since.
The family had just finished the usual
slaughter of hogs and a beef, and had
hung the beef against pile of lumber
to cool off or freeze. A catamount
(the Indian name in New England)
crept out in the night to get piece.
In pulling down the quarter of beef he
upset the pile of lumber, which came
down with q frightful noise, and he
made three tremendous leaps from the
spot. I saw the tracks in the snow;
there was not o mark between them; I
did not measure the distance myself,
but q man did, and I believe correctly.
The first jump was up hill, thirty feet;
the second, horizontal, to large rock,
fifty-four feet; the third, down hill,
seventy-two feet"
r A leap of thirty feet perpendicular to
the branch of tree, or a forty-foot
plunge after fatal shot, and falling
dead almost at the hunters feet, have
been repeated until the veracity is not
questioned, and after making all pos
sible allowance we must acknowledge
there is not a creature living whose leap
compares with it.
The question then comes up, how is
this superiority over other animals at
tained9 The key we shall find in the
coiled wire spring. This spring, pressed
down on a base and liberated, leaps
ahead further than any other form.
The reason is very simple. Every
movement of substance must start from
base unless moved by an outside
force. The coiled wire spring, when
pressed down, becomes solid its en-
tire length. When let loose the first
turn jumps from its base, which is the
second; the second adds its force to the
first, jumping from the third, and SO in
succession to the last, which adds its
force after the whole coil is flying from
the outside base of all. And this is pre-
cisely the case in the panther's leap.
The forelegs and head are shot forward
from the shoulders. the powerful
muscles Of the back straighten the
curve of the spinal column from the
hips, while the great posterior muscles
through the Achilles tendon and ovel
the longest lever in the animal economy,
add the last impetus to q body already
shooting ahead like an arrow.-Foresl

The Block ON the Suez Canal.

The Suez Canal has practically broken
down with excess of business. When
it was first opened, thirteen years ago,
half a million tons of shipping passed
through it. Last year the ships using
the canal measured 1000, 900 tons, and
the rate of increase is still maintained.
The ditch which NJ de Lesseps dug
through the desert is incapable to ac-
commodate this enormous traffic.
Steamers are constantly being blocked,
or go aground, or come into collision,
or in other ways suffer damage or de-
tention by the narrowness of the chan
mel, the insuficiency of the sidings, or
generally from the lack of adequate
facilities for the conduct of this enor-
nous and growing trade between Eu-
rope, Asia and Australia. Under these
circumstances, no practical English
man ever hesitates one moment as to
what should be done. Monopoly has
failed to keep pace with the demands of
the trade. He will try competition,
and accordingly it is to the formation
of competing company that the British
ship-owner is looking to-day as the sole
hope of relief for the block on the
eanal.-PaH Mall Gazette.
