o the Editor Of the Daily Nsrs:

1ohac Editor Of The Daily Nsrs:
MR. EDrroe:- may be interesting to some
OF my friends to have a statement Of the facts
relative to the ascent and descent Of INV balloon
on Wednesday last.
| For my fifteenth .Erial Voyage, had con-
structed an entire new balloon, and net gas ap
paratus- Both were perfect, with the exception
that there was not sufficient varnish on the silk
to close all its inferstices. Tho cause Of this
,mperfsction was the great haste that l was in
to complete the BALBOA, and the rainy weather
preventing the necessary number Of coats Of
varnish being put on. The consequence was, that
could not remain suspended long in the atmos-
phere. However, the balloon maiesticaily
into the air, and scared to an immense height
presenting to the spectators, according to their
own account, a most sublime spectacle
And to myself, the excursion truly delight
full.
Twenty minutes after O'Clock, P. NJ, COM
menced my ascent. The sun shonc brilliantly,
and the air above me was clear; but in the west
ern part Of the horizon, dense clouds lay piled
one over another, indicating the approach Of a
thunder storm. Beneath me were my frends, n nd
the fair and beautiful Of our city. Loud acclama-
tons rose, handkerchief waved, smiles Of appro-
baton werc displayed, music soundcd-the city
exhibited her whole extent and form, and the
surrounding amphitheatre of hills sank to II level
with the valleys, and unveiled the rich forests,
the fertile fields, tho cottages, mansions, villages,
and water courses that lay behind them. AT first
rose almost perpcndicularly, bearing a little to
the southwest In a few minutes, | vecred round
to the wcs:.-Soon found myself to the north
west Of the enclosure; then to the north, and in
u short time, was moving in a northeast d.
rection. Twenty-Five minutes Of 5 o'clock, the
rays Of the sun were cut off from the balloon by
a cloud. This, together with the rapid escape Of
the gas through the impcrfcctons Of the varnish,
caused mo rapidly to descend; and by fifteen min
utes Of S o'clock, / was safely landed the
premises Of Mr.. Pennington. in tho suburbs of
the CITY. / was surrounded by several
hundred persons, all anxious to what was a
miss.
Some friends were afraid that the crowd
would do me some injury, but l felt confident
that they would not. knew well that there was
not an individal in Cincinnati, young oil, ,ow-
CIV err fond Of mischief he might be, who would do
me or my balloon the slightest injury. No, I
have so often grat;fied my fellow cl,zens with
exciting scenes, and never disappointed them, that
.h:r ere universally my friends.
would now express my gratitude to my nu-
merous friends in Cincinnati, who have on all
occasions literally pa:.oniscd me.

MILES, TOMATO MEDICINE.

! Inc virtues OF the Tomato not only as 0cIi
cious vegetable for the table. but also rs q medi
e;>>, A.~> hes. Coz . considerable time past, at.
tractiag no little attention. II has been believed
to possess Anti-billious qualities, which If they
could be effectually extracted, separated from
the supcr flous matter, would be inv uable. This
has been characterized a bilious country. A
large portion of the diseases arise from dis ordered
livcrs or from arrangements in the glandular sys-
tenn This is especially the case in the west and
still more at the south. If a remedy easy,
safe eectual in its operation, and leaving the con-
stitutiOn unimpaired. could be discovered for Bill
ious complaints, this would unquestionably, be
among the most healthy climates in the world.
Calomel has been the almost universal remedy
for diseases Of this character But it IL a remedy
which nothing but necessity should induce the
use of. 1t may be considered ~ trespassine in
the province Of another profession speak Of this,
yet we may be permitted to express our strong
conviction, that Calon,e, cannot be- used without
injurious and lasting effects upon the system,
greater Or less according to the quantities taken,
and the frequency Of its use, and the constitution
Of the patient. A substitute for this therefore
from the vegetable singdom is a disideratum in
this country.
We believe this disideratum has been discover
ed in the Tomato. DR.. Miles Of this city, and his
associates, with much labor, and expense we !,
have succeeded in obtaining such an |
extract from this vegetable, it is hoped, will be
found an efectual substitute. We have taken
pains to enquire among medical men, and others /
who have used this medicine, to il its effects,
and wo feel we'll satisfied that it will prove a most
valuable remedy in bilious complaints. So far
We have been able to learn il has produced the
lesired effect, operating to produce q healthy nc
ion Of the liver, procuring bilious discharges
when needed, and in some instances, breaking up
overs, with even more certainty and in a shorter
ime than calomel. For sick or bilious head
chcs, it has been found good remedy. Those
Who have used il that it does not produce the
ebiiitating effects Of most other kinds Of purga-
i've medicines, there is no increased danger from
olds after its use, and where large doses Of Gallo
,el would be needed. this operates, without any
anger Of the distressing and injurious effects Of
aIomel whom producing salvation.
As we have reason to hope from our investiga-
on this extinct Of the Tomato, will prove sub
itute for calome, in great variety Of cases, we
'nnot but regard it great blessing to the hu-
an family. 1t is therefore that We spenk Of it, a

it is far supercedng all other preparations Of Sarspa-
