Haan, and do therefore moil honourably acquit him; and having alto maturely and deli berately confidered the evidence _for and n ainft the prifone r, as well as what he had to o ff er m his defence, is of opinion he is not guilty on the fecund charge, viz. of being drunk on the Dock-guard, .on the slight of the 17th of Augu ft Taft, and do therefore moll honourably acquit him. And the Court is further of opinion, that both charges are groundlefs and vexatious, and origin ating in malice : 'and that the. condua of Lieut.

BARRTET'S BALLOON. , The following a corred account of Mr. Bab fecond,Rtempt to afcend in, Swa tea w,d; his Air Balloon, which he 'bade on Fr.:l4 the I . sth infi. Anlivertifeinerit, circula ted through the Prin cipality's itotwithfianding Mr. B.'s late failure; drew together a greater affeMblage of perfons than on the, Former occafion .• the public faith being firengthened by fome Gentlemen of of the town, who perfonally folicited fubfcriPtions to defray the expences,attending his fornier attempt, and to procure plenty of vitriolic acid for his fecond. Mr. BARRETT declared publicly he had no money ; that he pofitively would 'afcend on that day, wea ther permitting—and having made over his bal loon and apparatus to Mr. FLEX hell, the chymiti, 'and a Mr. Russet., who were jointly bound for the payment of the acid, iron filings, &c. &c. on Friday, the isth, about eight o'clock, the procefs commenced, with as fine a day as was ever wit. netted. For an hour all teemed going on very well ; every one willied him fticcefs, as they all ccmmirerated the difirelfed situation of poor BARRETT. The &ft accident was the burning of one of the calks; which contained the preparations for producing the gas ; and in flopping of which one of the aflifiants was dreadfully burnt with Vie acid. Another calk was loon fupplied. Tne procefs teemed going on fmoothly for about an hour, when, one of the fpedators hallooed out f• the balloon is open, the balloon is open I" mean ing the valve, which was the cafe. The fudden calling out alarmed the multitude, who were in- Randy feized with as much terror as if there had been an earthquake—Erich was the anxiety of the public for the fuccefs of the (hanger and his aerial machine. After fome time, and a great deal of gas loft, the firing of the valve was found to have got into contact with, and to be adhering to the filk of the balloon, which was (trained, and caufed the valve to be pulled open ; it was no* 400fened, and the valve again doted. All being fet to rights, hopes were entertained things would go on well • but about twelve o'clock, a large hole was di lbovered about three or four feet from the mouth or aperture of the balloon ; this was foon remedied by the dexterity , of a good-natured lafs of about twenty Jane, who muted no fmall degree of laughter, as the was lifted on the Rage. The balloon did not yet teem to be a quarter tnll —it was now one o'clock. Sir Ware IN LEWIs (who was one of the greate( number of titles and fafilionables ever feen here) now came for ward to the Rage to Mr. BARRETT, to advife him at any rate to try the power of the balloon, as the hour fixed on was pelt, and at the fame time giv ing him his fubfcription of a guinea. At this moment aloud cry, from the oppolite tide of the Rage, Hefe's a large hole, and the air coming out ;"—it was full a font long. A needle and thread was again called for, and the hole fewed up. The feeders of the cants now told Mr..l3ae- MITT they had tapt the laft bottle of vitriolic acid. ig Well,' Paid Mr. Baaaarrs' el I'll now go home for my flags, &c." and left the Rage for that par pore.. The balloon not being a third full, and all the vitriol ,on the ground (pent, BARRETT'S leaving the ground created a fufpicion that he was going to brulh off. One of Mr. BARR aTt's affifi ants on the Rage, who was (aliening on the bancet or car, diffipated the fears of the rnblic, by affuring them he would forfeit his life if ar. Beaxerr was not there by the time the car was fixed on; or if he, Mr. B. did not return, he would himfelf ifeend with the balloon. This the chymift objected to, faying, perhaps he would not return with it ! In the miclß of the altercation, Mr. BARRETT ar rived, and every thing being prepared by the affillant above alluded to, (who, we are informed, was LEE SUGG, the Ventriloquift,) Mr. BARRETT took his feat in the balket, or car. The ropes were all cut, and the balloon held down by the car—they now eafed it, but found it would not r if e ; all ballafi was now thrown out—the people on the Rage lifted up the car, and the balloon, with Mr. - B. fet off—took him about 20 yards—and down it came. The mob took him up, and brought him to a rifing ground, dote , to the fea, and lifted the car as high as they could reach ; the balloon reached acrofs the field, and he alighted in the hedge. The mob again lifted the car off the hedge, tt went about ten yards, juft ficimming the earth, and now it Ruck fall again. Mr. BARRETT, now allured it would not take him up, let the balloon go without him. It afcended pretty well for about half a minute—it then upfet itfelf entirely ; but foon recovering its proper fitu r. ation, it afcended gradually, till it became to the eye like a liar. As the balloon had been new varnithed, and the fun thining on it, it had every appearance of one. The wind was at South Weft: when it afeendeti s and blew direct from the fea ; but after it had Wilt up about an hour, it was Peen by fome of the eaters of the Spit fire !loop of war (now lying In the Mumbles)about two leagues out at fea, who, thinking Mr. BARRETT was with it, very kindly had their boats manned to pick him up, in cafe be fell. However, the wind again blew to the land, and the balloon defcended in a field near Cline wood, about five miles from Swanfea. -Many perfons had obferved its courfe ; but the perfon who firft got hold of it, not know ing how to manage it, cut the netting, and hold ing the balketi the balloon again afiended, and tame down again in a field belonging to Huon Wareing, Efq. at Myrton, about nine miles from Swanfea, about eight o'clock, having been up, from the time of Mr. B.'s afcending, five hours. A great many country people now laid hold of it, and the firli thing they did was to cut it open " to let • the aunt out," as they fitid ; but finding no man in it, they now cut it in two, and were about to divide it in pieces amongil them, when the truly humane Gentleman above•named refcued it from their hands, and had it focused in his barn. The fame night it was brought to town in a ter ribly mangle 4 fiat-. Every one Is forry for dr. BARRETT, as he difplayed great conlnefs, and would molt. certainly have gone with his balloon, had it been full enough. .~ Y ' . I.
