PARADOXICAL DISCOVERY.

The paradoxical discovery that the
speed of sailing vessel may be in
creased by perforating its sails is claim
ed by Captain Vasalio, an Italian mari
ner. He supposes that the fixed cushion
OF air filling up the hollow of an in
Hated sail lessons the effect of the wind.
and he has sought to prevent the col
lection of this cushion by making q
number of holes in the canvas. Several
trials, made in all weathers, have given
surprising results. In a light wind
vessel made four knots with ordinary
sails and five knots with perforated
sails; In fresh breeze seven and eight
ana three-quarters knots respectively
and in strong wind eight and ten
Knots. The ships value would be in
creased one-fffth-its trips of five weeks
being reduced to four weeks-if the in
creased speed can be sustained through
out long voyage.
