RING BALLOON INVENTED BY
A Mr.. MONCK MASON!!
We stop the press at a late hour, to
announce that, by PrivaleExpress from
Charleston, S. c., we are just put in
possession Of full details Of the most
extraordinary adventure ever accomplish
ed by man. The Atlantic Ocean has
been actually lraversed in ballon. and
in the incredible brief period OF Three
Days! Eight persons have crossed in the
machine-among others Sir EvereTd
Bringnurst and Mr.. Mpnck Mason. We
have barely time now 10 anOnace this
most novel and unexpected intelligence
but we hope by 10 this morning TO have
ready on extra with detailed account OF
the voyage.
P. S.-The Extra will be positively
ready, and for sale al our counter, by III
o'clock this morning. Il will embrace
all the particulars yet known. We have
also placed in the hands Of an excellent
artist representation Of the "Slesring
Balloon" which will accompany the par
tiCuars of the voyage.
The above wonderful story is from the
New York Sun, the same paper that or
g;naled the moon hOGr about eight years
ago, The prOprietors Of the paper made
great profit at that time BY selling "Ex
ira" copies Of the Sun; but as that hoax
must still be fresh in the memories o
the New YorkerS, this new attempt tG
profit by their credulity and love Of The
marvellous, will doubtless be fat less sue
cessful.

He forgels his recent launls in the Sen.
ate, when he lold Mr. Calhoun, with The
most arrogant scorn, that he lnterfeled
to prevent 'old Jackson from hanging the
Rul ifiers!' Gen. HamiltoA thinks that the
Union was saved by the recollection Of
the circumstance that he shook hands
with Nil Clay, after he had twice shot at
his principal, Mr.. Randolph, whom be
had challenged for alluding to the unho,
