The car luckily escaped irom the hands ofthc goths who destroyed the balloon.It is said that some slight fissures had been observed in the tissues, on the evening before the balloon was to have ascended.Whatever may have been the canteof the accident, it is very fortunate that it look place before the voyagera had taken Uictr departure. The form of the balloon has been objected to by scientific men, and the slender tissue of which it was made, »s well as the dark colour of tlie Indian rubber varnish with which it was covered.David Trembly John Kellotrg David C.
