own mind will more fully and forcibly develop
nv views. That the compromise measures are
based upon the principle of Gen. Cass's non
Intervention, he himself declared. Mr.. Calhoun
aflirms the same, when, in his great and last
speech, he appealed SO powerfully to the Taylor
party, to show how they could support prin-
cciple, which they had but just opposed and de-
feated Gen. Cass upon. Toombs, OF Georgia,
in his Macon letter, admits the same, although
he had once so vehemently denounced the doc
trine. And all, but for selfish and party mo-
tives and prejudice, would and must admit that
the measures passed and based upon this princi-
pie, have given the North all, and left the South
none.

cipe to the division or disposal of the territory
acquired from Mexico, hat will make it less

BALLOON AscEEsIoN.-M Wise publishes a
card in the Columbus (Ohio,) Statesman, giving
an account of his ascension from that city on
the 4th inst.
In consequence of slight rupture in the bal
loon which he could not repair, he let go"
about 90 minutes before the lime he set He
says
al started at 90 minutes before o'clock, and
rose almost perpendicularly for the first 10
minutes. All this time was passing through
an atmosphere highly impregnated with n.y.
drogen, escaping from the balloon, and for the
first three thousand feet of my ascent, it was
like passing through an ordeal of fire. The
radating power of the balloon, with the puggent
abrading effects of the escaping hydrogen,
caused feeling more like passing through the
descriptive pains of purgatory than like sensa-
tions which we might naturally expect to arise
in sailing heavenward over such blessing fruc-
tile land as the State of Ohio. When | got
ola mile high, this unpleasant feeling ceased
the balloon having gradually approached her
equilibrium. Here woke up to more con-
genial feelngs-the city of Columbus lay out
before me like well defined map, and the
| meandering Scioto looked like way-worn
of his career The National pike shot its straight
|
far distant east, and the few little villages
which were in sight, basked inactively in the
sunshine, no groups of human being to enliven
their streets, all their inhabitants, having come
to Columbus to celebrate the nations natal
day."
At the height of mile he tried some expert
ments as to the spiral movement Of bodies
when passing through the air. He threw over
pieces of board four inches wide and three feet
long-they descended with rotary motion
spinning rapidly on their longer axis horizont.
ally, and described spiral gyrations Of not less
than 200 feet in diameter. After being up hall
an hour he had thrown oyer forty pounds of bal.
last, to overcome the leaky condition OF his all
ship--a quantity sufficient to have kept ssin NJ
forty hours, had there been no rupture before as
cending-he was compelled to descend, and
come down in hurry about three miles south Of
Columbus, unhurt, with provisions for voyage
to beyond Wheeling, which he intended to
make.
