an apparent speck in the element to nothing: The
aeronaut descended safely at Norman Court, near Salis-

half. The assemblage of people to witness the ascent was
calculated at 10,000.—Caledonian Mercury.
REMARKABLE VEGETATION.—Owing to
the previous moisture and present great beat of the season,

and are likely to bear a second crop. There is at. present
a remarkable instance in the garden of Newton-Don, where
a pear tree has upon it the full grown fruit of the year, a
number of fine young pears as fully set as if in spring, and
a great.- quantity of blossom rapidly forming into .fruit.—
The tree is of the variety called St. Germains.—.Cukdo-
