his balloon, on Wednesday, from a Seld called Ket-
tles*Aoreharti, wijeinin& the Cathedral. at York.

ther, which bad been very stormy during the whole
of the forenoon, cleared up, and was as calm and fa.
Towable as could be wished. The balloon ascended
'at 21 minutes after one, and was seen with the naked
'rebus the place of ascension for 45 minutes. From
tint ascent to the descent. 63 nibs. His descent was
near Craike and Easingwold, where he was received
by the Rev. Dr. Gina. He was fortunate in alight-
ing near a populous and hospitable neighbourhood:
had he passed the bleak and desolate Ulla which were
before him, he might have spent the night unassisted
and in distress. Exactly on the same day 28 years
ago, LUNAIIIIII ascended from the s.tme spot. Mr.
SADLER returned to York safe at half•Feist seten.

board the John Adams, to sail for the United States.

tination, in about ten days.

wait until further dispatches shall have been trans-
mitted to him. These are expected in two or three
days, whets the John Adams will leave the Texel for
.Anserien."
It seems by another letter, and from a very respec•
table quarter, that the reason assigned at Amsterdiun
for the voyage of Mr. Datum, is to consult his Go-
vernment on the new limits demanded for the British
Colonies by their Go►ernmeent, and which, it was
supposed, would alienate a considerable part of the
State of Ohio.
