AERIAL VOrAGE. BOLOGNA, At/GUST 14.—The following is a more 'particular account of the new aerial excur fiun which was undertaken here on the lad by Count ZAN saccaat and M. Ammar's', both known by their un fortunate eapeditiob of the lame kind 'aft year. They affended in the pretence of an immenfe soncoutfe of fretators ; for, befides the 70,000 inhabitants of this city, about 60.000 grangers were collated from the neighbouring places. The Cpedators were potted chiefly on the Turrounding hills, and formed a beau tiful fpodacle. At fix in the morning, the fignal was made by the firing of three cannon, and at ten the ifelent took place. Abisut one the balloon was entirely nut of fight, and all the inhabitants and Bringers who had viewed the fcene, were agitated between hope and fear for the fate of the :intrepid aeronauts. when Dotor Awoatou arrived unexpededly in a poR-chaffe about four in the afternoon with his arm bound up. The people immediately flocked round him, all anxious to know what had become of Count ZAMBECCAILI. Th.s account which Dr. Annum:Ha gave was as fol. lows : In order to prevent their being carried too nea r to the Adriatic Sea, they had Coffered the balloon to diefcend at Capo d'Argine, the firfl Poll Ration on the road to Ferrara, and had made their anchor fan to an elm. At the moment when it caught one of the branches, the car received a violent (hock, by means of the rope, which threw down Come (parks frosts the Montgolfier fire-pan, contained in the car, and kindled Come fpirit of wine in the weird below ; alarmed at this apparent danger, Dr. ANDRIOLI let hinsfelf down to the tree by the anker.rope, and laid hold of a branch; but, the branch breaking, he fell to the earth, and received a contuflon on his arm.— The balloon being rendered much lighter by the doc tor's quitting it, and inflated much more by the fire vatich took place in the car, could no longer be kept down, though two peafants who had hold of the rape s tutted all their Rrength for that purpofe. It rare again therefore into the air with the velocity of lightning, and difappeared in the clouds. Not with out moron, therefore, did people apprehend that Count Zaseasceea: would be expofed to the horrid fate of being burnt alive in the upper regions.-a lbw dels intrepid man, in the min of the greateft danger, did not loft his pretence of mind. He found means so <missed& thi fire in the car, and as the rudder was in llama, to throw it down to the Ur* where it was found, but was not confidered u a proof of the Count's falety. He now endeavoured to *Nod u fpeedily as potable. becaufe be was al ready in fight of the Adriatic. The fame good for tune which rekued hint front death daring his former voyage, attended him on the prefent occafion. Some fifhermen who were out at tea between Comachio apd Rimini, haflenedjo his relief and took him into dleir boat, but the balloon efcaped, hectare they did not immediately make Come incifions in it as the Count had. &fired. 'llls day at one in the afternoon, be made his may into Bologna: above a hundred coaches accompabied the clues chaife in which he rode. and which was drawn by a crowd of young men, amidllthe thunder of cannon. while the French and Italian troops lying *here, marched along to the found of military mufic. Count ZAOIIItCCARI will war pablifh a particular account of this new adven ture. The car remains at Comachio, but the bal. loots, it is probable, has been carried to a confidera bledillance, perhaps to the Turks in Dania, who fired at the &II as a grange monger, and then took it prifoner. Whether Count Zardasecaas will under take a third aerial journey is uncertain ; at leaß he will not employ a balloon filled according to Moss r cotar ca's method, which is always attended with the danger of fire. The prefent French method of filling balloons is certainly far preferable. When Count ZAMBICCARI made his triumphal entry, aOOO people at leaß went a great way to meet him. The day was confilered at, a fellival, on which no one did any work. Dr. Antasom was not fated in the tri umphal car. His Majtvry will in a few days hold a Council at Weymouth. when the Parliament. which Rands at prefent prorogued to the 4.th of Odober. will be (lid further prcrogued to the beginning of November, then to meet for the difpatch of bawds. Yefierday the Lords Commi(fioners of the Tree. too declared their determination as to the manner in which they propofed the Loyalty bun (hall he paid off, when notice was given to the Bank, that. fJr every tool. would be given tool, in the Old Five per Cents. and the remainder to be made up in the Tree per Cents. Reduced, according to the average price of Stock. It will be necedary (or there who in tend to comply with the terms, to give notice at an Office at the Bank; appointed for that purpofe. be fore the sth of Oaober. There perfons making the exchange would be entitled to half a year's dividend on the sth of January, •sos. ifefierday a half yearly General Court was held at the Bank, for the parpore of fettling a Dividend on the Bank Stock, and other btifinefs. It wa.propored and agreed to, that st. per Cent. &mild be allowed to the Proprietors, and the payment to be made in :ilk innead of Stock, as has been generally the cafe. —The quellion was kid to be balloted for net Tut( day nczt.—Mr. loaves thee istsodoced a trenti,o, of whieh notice was given is a previous Court, namely, that as additional hem of ascot. be vexed to the Governor ' Deputy Cementer. sad Dim:tors of the Bank of England. for the great seal and at ten. they have Cr all times inanifelled is the Bank VeCtra% ; which was- reenacted by Hr.

A fimilar number march on Ft iday, ekorted by the Prince of Wales's own Royal Plymouth Volunteers, Lieut. Col, HAWKER. The behaviour of the French troops from St. Domingo, priftners of war; is fiid to have been uncommonly impudent and overhearing, and it is fuppofed if there had been any of them that could have managed a (hip, they would have tried to have thrown. the Engliffi tailors overboard, and run away with the cartels : the Agin', a Lieutenant of the Navy, had hard work to put them on limn allowance, on their pater, having been three weeks beating through the Gulph, and when they arrived here they had only three days provefions and water left, even at (hart allowance. On board one of the cartels, frame of the foldiers were villains enough to fit a negro boy to murder the Englifh mailer in his cot while afleep, but was providentially dikovered with the knife in his hand, going towards the cabin, by the mate, who had the watch. A firie eye has been kept on the bey, to difcover his accomplices, but hitherto in vain To the credit of the French Officers (pill° ousel war on board,) their conduct was very laud able in endeavouring to fupprefs any mutinous con di" where they - could esert the little authority they poffeffed. The above was the grateful return of French prifoners to Britiffi clemency, in receiving them as prifoners of war, when in another night Dessacinef blond hounds of Hayti would have put them all to death in the moll cruel manner, had not our hardy tars and Royal Matines ventured their Heel to bring them off fit:on St. Domingo.

BRIGHTON, SEPT tg. A feket party of the Nobility Lift night partook of the liofpitalities of the Pavillion. The banqueting room was brilliantly illuminated, and gave an addi tional cheerfulnefs to the appearance of the Northern extremity of the Steyne. Some accidents occurred both yeflerday and to day, through the timidity of bathers, who, whatever they may do on land, cannot diftingitifh themfelves with any fwimming eclat in the water. None of the accidents, we are happy to (late, terminated fatally. The Flying Artillery were prac tifed in a lb im tight on the Church Down thi, morn ing. Their various manoeuvres were performed in a llyle of excellence at once calculated both to pleafe and aftonith ; but few fpeaators of rank were in the field. The Martinis of HIILTFORD and family fet off on Wednefday for their feat at Sudbury, in the county of Suffolk. The cafe of the Martinis of lizerworr is the only inliAnce of trim. con. that has been atchieved by a No bleman lince that of Lord M. The latter won his fair one by land V iches; the Marquis., it appears, made his ennquefl by topazes. BnNlrAßri mutt nnw more than ever regret the lofa oldie old Lombarefic ernwn. which was, till lately, among the antiquities of the National Cabinet. With refpeet to this at tide, however, the operation of his great talents has been anticipated ; for, about fix months (ince, he had a rival, who —.---front a &elf the pncloua diadem/de.

The principal objects of attraction were Mr ELLIsTON, from the Hay-market, in Roca; the American Mis. Jonasotr, from Bath, as Llvira; and Mrs. H. PM mSTON. as Cora. Mr. ELLISTON'S Rdla is a very vigorous delineation of the charafter, but tail night the astor fo evidently, but unneceffarily, laboured to make himfelf heard, that much of the dignified, bat fiber c , louring, which he is well capa ble of giving to the pi Kure of the Peruvian hero, was loft in the attempt. Towards the dote of the play he was quite ifoure ; lie met, however, with great and well deceived applaufe. Mrs. joirwsow is a very fine figure, and padres expretlive features, and a voice of much melody and compafs ' • but has not thz commanding deportment of Mrs. sionoss. Nl's: H. Jonas-roles Cora was, perhaps, the molt finifhed performance of the even ing, and which loft nothing of its effeSt by playing to her bulb old's "thaw, in which Jorinsrom was very animated. Mrs. A. joirsrron is riling fall to the highest honours of her proleffion. The other parts were filled as in former feafont Pizarro Snits BARRY woos uncommonly well;Waouc N eon is very effeeling in Las CIA; and POWELL makes a very decent King. The Play WAS followed by the Entertainment called " Of Age To-morrow," in which SUETT. BANNISTER, jun. Mrs. S . Mifs litcllS, and Mifs Dewar, exhibited their ufual powers of pleading in their feveral parts. The houfe was crowded to the ceiling before half price. Mr. SSIESIDSN far in one of the boxes over the Stage, a very attentive obferver through the whole of the evening, and we troll, was much fatitfied with his new acquifitions. E LOP tt4ENT.At one o'clock yell erday, a poll chaise and four drew up at Burlington Gardens, ("- polite to the bottle of the Earl of Gast IDG I. The carriage was very complete, and the hurfes were of the lint order of hack. A man, who had all the ap pearance of an boater, attended, and fat upon the lieps with the door of the carriage open, ready to re ceive its intended company. Shortly after, a tall, handforne Gentleman, about thirty-five Fears of age, came op. He was of brown complexion, and wore a dark rotorred coat, lyrists, and leather hieeches. He took no notice of the carriage, but walked up and down the itreet in a aide of encreafing agitation. The palfengers were (truck with the fcene, and, eon. neeling him with the carriage in waiting, concluded that fome mysterious btifinsfs was going forward. In this opinion they were lien confirmed, by the ap ',coach of two young Ladies, elegantly dreffcd, with their faces concealed by deep white lace veils. They were in great italic and perturbati.in t and, being joined by the Gentleman, they all three harried into , the carriage. They bad fcareely taken their feats, when the Gentleman, in a loud voice, defined the poltillions to drive to Cranford Bridge. Some of the perfons prefers: had the eurinfity to follow the Car -1 riage, and they form found that it took quite a con trary direshon. From all the chcomtlances, very 1 little doubt remains hut that it was an elopement. We inform the plash: with great plcafure, that a Correfpondent on whole authority we can rely, ef forts us that the crops of corn in general are a fair average crop, well got in, and all ufefol ; betides whi c h th e lit ck (.; ..;..1 wheat is uncommon, peirlaips greater than was even known.
