Iron or partiality, where the delinquency, for what we know, is
equal. We are glad to hear that the Limerick and Nottingham
regiments have recovered to a due recollection of the duty to their
country, and to each •other at'd t ,at friendship and good-will
have tak •n the plAce of hostility and irritation; both reginients
having, as we understand, pled-eel themselve, by a shake of
hands, to a fu: tire regard and union."—(Correspondent.)
44 OC 1. (1B E 3.—\Ve are happy to state, that ap, rfect reconcili-
ation betwcen the Irish and En lish Militia in this garrison, ren-
ders it unnecessary to enter fuil on the subject, which other-
wise we sh old have done. The hirelings who cavil at the no-
tice of this affair which appPared in our last, should recollect,
that it was the cheering tune of " Garryoven Boys," that led
those brave felltows un to the victory :t Coloony. ,vhere the%
tended with Frcnch numbers ai superior as those of pope i o
them in Dublin garrison; they should also mark, that the play-
ing f riic cheering tulle vester&y by the English militia, was the
prelude to the reconciliation which has been happily accom-
plished and tit filch we hope to tee uninterrupted by the intem-
perance of the Popery Faction,' or the base hirelings of in-

and a half, whence they caw the towns of Peterborough, Sam-
ford, Wisbeach, Crowland, Ste.. Mr. Sadler perceiving a cur-
rent of air passing under him to the northward, he deemed it
prudent to descend, in order to avoid being carried towards the
sea. The balloon being now quite distr• ded, it became nece.s-
s:ay to let out some of the gas, which was dune at intervals till
it descended into the current \ r. S idler h, d previously noticed;
and the adventurers were carried directly northwards.
Spalding was now on their right, and Bourn on their lift,
when they threw out ail their ballast, being so contiguous to the
sea. The• car first struck the earth to the southward of Heck-
intr.ton with ext. erne violence, the' grappling irons being ineffec-
:`.rown out; and, on the second concussion, Mr. Sadler
having hold of the valve-line, was, by a sudden jerk. caused by '
the grapple taking hold for an instant, thrown violently out, and,
unfortunately, received several severe contusions on the head
and body ; hut, notwithstanding, had sufficient presence of mind -
to call out to Mr. Burcham not to quit his seat. The balloon
immediately arose above 100 yards; and, on again descending,
the grappling iron caught the ground, and the machine came in
contact with a tree, which stopped its progress, and Mr. Burch.
ant was fortunately relieved from his peril us anti
safely landed on terra firma with only a slight bruise. The
aerial voya7e was completed at forty minutes past thrte,"b •ing
one hour and twenty minutes from the mom.. nt ci( ascensioa;
hav:ng in that short space traversed a distance of at least 112
miles. A, the balloon made towards the eas th, no assivance
appeared at hand to secure the splendid vehicle, which, unfor-
tunately, was very much damaged ; and, from the place the car
first struck the earth till the balloon was finally secured, was
carried above a mile and a half with Mr. Burcham alone.

Mr. Sadler losing one of his shoes on his expulsion from the
balloon, he made towards a mill, and begged an old one, which
was refused under 7s. though not worth 2d. The nun was,
however, recognized in the crowd, and compelled to etund.
The adventurers were much indebted to the hospitality of
Mr. and Nlrs. Robinson, (f Heckington, where they were
kindly received, and treated with every possible mark of atten-
tion►.
