FRolssART's CHRONICLES, PART II. VIM
chester, 30 Ann-strcct. has published this morn
inu, Part Of Sir John Froissart's Chronicles of
England, France, Spain, and the adjoining
Countries from the latter part of the reign OF
Charles II. to the Coronation Of Henry ". These
Chronicles have stood the test of five centuries,
and, from the time they first appeared, have been
the admiration OF genius in every country of Eu-
rope Who can add to the praises of st. Palayc,
Of Mon,aigne. of Gray, and Sir Walter Scott.
Froissart-' the IIcrodotus Of barbarous age,
with his simple curiosity and religious crcduhty,
has been the delight, for ages, of all who love to
read
Ofboi meas bloody combatincs aud gentle ladies' tears
He has presented living picture OF Europe III
its boistcrous spring time, with all It's nmuiinous
pleasures, It's chivalric glorlcs. and It's magn,ti-
cen, supcrstitions. He has given US type both
of the splcndor and the decline of the heroic
world. He has transmitted 10 postc5ity brilliant
examples OF dauntcss hcroism, and periec; mod
els of rcproachcss chivalry. With the sympathy
and spirit OF an eyewitness, and with the frank
ness of an old priest anxious to entertain his no.
bic patron with as good story as was consistent
with truth, he has detailed the most interesting
periods of English history, and one of the most
exciting cpochs in The progress of civilization
He has described, with a most charming simpiicl-
ty. even with dramatic power, all that can excite
curiosity in the usagcs of warfare, in the lives
aud fortunes Of mobiles, in the squabbcs of priests,
and The amuSements of that class with whom he
associated.
The Chronicles arc to be completed in ten parts
a, - cents each, or two dollars for the complete
work. The type and style of this, the first and
only American edition. is irreproachable, and re-
fleets great credit upon the encrprsing publisher.
He may we'll anticipate great sale
BlLLooNiNc.-Mr. Wise, the celebrated H7o-
naut, in late balloon ascension from Carlisle,
Pa. varied the performances in rather a daring
manner. Upon arriving at Centre Square, he
djves,ed, himself of every particle of clothing
cept his pantaloonS, and detachng the car from
the balloon 10 make the weight as light as posi-
he. to0A his seat 9n . narr0,c board attached 10
the cords Of The ja!loon, and giving the signal to
let 60 shot away like an arrow from the bow,
and nearly N 4 Straigh, line, leaving behind him
hundreds who were amazed at the singular bold
ness Of the daring feat. He ascendcd nearly
mile, and was fast fading from sight, when he
began to descend, and actually al:ghted about
Two squares from the place of starting
SUDDEN DsArH.-Last evening lad named
Henry Cornell, aged about = was instantly kill
ed IN rather a singular manner. He was playing
and Chatham streets and, while running, sudden
" met black man gong il, the opposite direction
The shoekot the collision was SO violent that Cor
nell instantly fell backwards upon the pavement,
and was taken up dead Physicians were imme-
dateIy attendance but all efforts TO recover him
were in yain lie lived at 1913 Grand-street, near
the Catholic Church.
i Did May ever 60 out 50 cold An over
coat was not near 50 uncomfortable Yesterday as
to be without one. From every quarter we hear
accounts OF the backwardntSs of the season. We
should think il at least three weeks behind what
ii should BE- In Maryland, the farmers are ap-
pretending an almost total future OF their Gram
Crops.
