_Tailless Cats_ (Vol. ix., p. 10.).--On the day on which this Query met my
eye, a friend informed me that she had just received a letter from an
American clergyman travelling in Europe, in which he mentioned having seen
a tailless cat in Scotland, called a Manx cat, from having come {480} from
the Isle of Man. This is _not_ "a Jonathan." Perhaps the Isle of Man is too
small to swing long-tailed cats in.
