A NIGHT in The Clouds,
rRA-.sAsy4D FROM TIE FRENCH, BY !. B., JR.

the day was drawing to a close, and the Popula-
tion of Mannheim WIS returning to the city i'll
merry bands. All ihcnewly established gardens
at the place of destroyed Notifications had again
become silent and deserted, save one only, in
which resounded the noise of voices and the
sound Of instruments.
1t was the Cottage Garden. then celebrated at
Mannheim for its rural balls, military games, fire
works and captive air balloons. The latter had
been popular a long time on account Of their
novelty. Although the admirable discovery of
the brothers Montpelier had already become
old, it was but lately the thought occurred to
them to make it a means of advertisement; but
the success had been so universal and so rapid
in Germany, that all the public gardens had
their balloons, and an ascension had become as
simple and little dreaded as all excursion upon
the Rhine.
1t is true that these aerial voyages were
short and offered but few dangers, Strongly
attached to the elrth by cords which could be
heightened out or shortened at pleasure, the
balloon was elevated only to the desired height
by the aeronluts, and did not 60 above, in its
highest ascensions, the top of the trees.
In the meantime the crowd had abandoned
the most distant Irts Of the garden, to go tow
ards the great espIanade in which the fireworks
were prepared he groves hau Deen already
