uncertain whether he will long retain it.
FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, JUNE 14.—The fermen-
tation in Bosnia appears to continue • and it will be necessary
to take measures to put an end to this state of things. Emi.
gration from that country, which has been going on for some
time, increases more and more, and many Bosnian families
endeavour to settle, some in Servia, some in the Austrian
territory. Prince Milosch, who was generally reported to in-
tend to go to Vienna in the course of the spring, seems to
have given up the plan for the present. M. Mourojene,
Secretary to the Turkish Legation at Vienna, arrived at
Galacz on the Bth, and proceeded to Jassy. The Turkish
Ambassador himself, Terik Achmed Pacha, is expected at
Galacz, whence he will proceed to his post by way of
Bucharest.

THE BALLOON ASCENT AT BAYSWATER.—
The following is the account written by Mrs. Graham :
" Soon after seven o'clock I entered the car, followed by Mrs.
Cheese, who took her scat in the most calm and collected
manner, when, after Mr. Graham had arranged the quantity of
ballast, we were launched into the air, rising slowly over the
gardens, in which were a highly respectable company.. My
companion was much astonished at beholding the nat_ assem-
blage of persons in every direction outside the gardens, which,
upon this occasion, far exceeded the number I observed on the
occasion of my ascent on the 27th of last month. The city,
on our first rising, appeared enveloped in smoke ; but after
we had been up a few minutes it became more clear, and we
had a beautiful view. I pointed out to Mrs. Cheese St. Paul's
cathedral, with the whole of the Briflges, the Parks, and
Kensington-gardens. The Serpentine-river had a very novel
and pretty appearance, resembling a line of bright silver from
the reflection of the sun's rays. On rit:ing we took a north-
west direction, passing very slowly over Craven-hill, West-
bourne, and Kensall-green, the Cemetery at Kilburn, &c.
Having been requested by some individuals of high respect-
ability to keep in view, I kept purposely at a low elevation,
not exceeding the altitude of a mile and a quarter. During
the whole excursion I explained to Mrs. Cheese the use of the
whicb, by emitting a portion of the gas, caused me also
to ciL.roiargo some ballast, which was a source of amusement
to my eampanion, who watched its descent, it having the ao•
pearance of a small cloud. We ultimately effected our de-
scent in a beautiful meadow, on Ifxendon Farm, belonging to
James Elmore, Esq., between Harrow. and Harrow Weald, at
13 minutes before eight o'clock, where we let off two car-
rier pigeons, and again ascended the length of the grappling-
line, being 60 feet, and remained suspended for the space of
ten minutes, in order to afford an opportunity to Mr, Graham,
Nilo was following our track in a postchaise, to ascertain the
direction in which we were, In conclusion I cannot but ob-
serve that the conduct of Mra, Cheese, being her first appear.
ante, was most undaunted, notwithstanding she received an
annonymoue letter, for the purpose of intimidating her from
ascending, the writer asserting my inability to manage the
balloon. (Signed) MARGARET GRAHAM."
