lHmarahh Tenitity of the Spiders
Thread. In the introduction to a mo
dern system of entomology there js a
description of. the process by which
the snider weaves its webb. After de
scribing the four spinners,' as they are
termed, from which the visible threads
proce ed , th e wri te r makes th e fo 1 1 o w -mgcurious
observations
jThesV are machinery, thro which
by a process more singular than that'
of rope-spinning, the thread is d ra wq .
Each spinner is pierced like the plate
oil a wire d rawer, . with a multitude of
holes, so numerous and exquisitively
fine, that a space not often bigger than
a pin's point includes a thousand.-s-Through
each of these holes proceeds
a? thread, of an incobceivable tepuity?
which, immediately after issuing from
the orifice, unites with all the other:
threads from the same spinner into
one. tlence irom each spinner pro
ceeds a compound thread ; and these
foUr threads at tfie distance' of aout
one tenth of an inch from the apex of
the spinner, again unite, and form the j
threstd we are "accustomed to see,
which the spider iises in forming its
webb, v Thus, a spider's 1 webb, even
Spunby the smallest specie, aftd when
so fine that it is almost imperceptible
to our senses is not, asr we suppose,
a single linei but a rone, corppoped of
at least 4,000 strands. But, to feel
all the wonders of this fact, we must'
foiloweuwenhoeck in one of his pal
cnlations)n the subject. This rbnown
ed microscopic observer found, by an
acurate'estimatibn, that thb threads of
the spiders, some of which 4r notJar-,
ger than a . grain of sand, are so fine,
rthat 400,000 of them would riot exceed
in thickness one of the hairs of his
beard. Now we knbw that .each (if
these threails is composed of 4,00 still j
nner. It follows, ,vtherelore, that
bove sixteen millions of the .finest
threads, which issue from such spiders,
arc not altogether thicker, than a hu
man hair. ...V':V- ':V - '.'
