THE FEAST OF CnERR1Es.-At Ham
burg there is an annual festival, in which
troops Of children parade the street, car
rying green garands, ornamented with
cherries, TO commemorate a remarkable
event which occurred in 1882. When
the Hussites threatened the city with i'm
mediate destruction, one of the citizens
proposed that all the children, from Sc
ven to fourteen years Of age, should be
clad in mourning, and sent as supplcants
to the enemy. Procopius Nesus, the
Hussite chief, was so touched with this
spectacle, that he received the young
suppicunts, RECALLED them with cherries
and other fruit, and promised to spare
the city.-The children returned, crowned
with leaves, holding cherries and shout

FLYING.-Galgnani's Messenger re-
lates that Bavarian mechanic, named
Interholzer, has invented an apparatus
for flying, and has proposed to the Min.
lister Of the Interior, to make public ex-
hibition Of his system in the Champs Ely
sees, on the Kings fete of the first of
May. He pretends that he can, with his
apparatus raise himself to any height he
pleases, take any direction in tho air, and
lower himself, with more or less rapidly,
at will.
Whether Mr. lnterholzer will succeed
in his attempt, remains to be proved.
We have no doubt, however, that the
thing is possible,-and that before anoth-
er half century has passed away, men
and women, girls and boys, will make no.
