AaIAL NAvIeATIoN. a Voy4ge Across the atlantic
I'm a BaAoon. Mr. Petrie, very learned, scientific
and enthusiastic man, a member of the Academy,
&c., in Paris is certain that he has we'd the problem
of AERIAL navigation. Last summer he exhibited his
plan at the Palais Royale, and tried get up sub
scrPton to raise money enough to make his balloon,
but although people enough went to his exhibitions
few were found willing to give even the franc re-
quested for the great object Mr. Petrie had in view
Since then, he has nobly struggled against all diff
culties, until he is convinced he has surmounted
them He sold his property, all he had in the world,
to buy the twelve thousand yards of silk required for
his air ship. Four balloons, each eighty four feet
high and IS feet in diameter nearly finished
The entire machine will be 500 feet high. AS to the
bold navigator, he is perfectly certain Of success and
after making trip over the walls of Paris will go
over and see the United States in July or August
In the meanwhile, his noble wife, as enthusiastic as
he is, keeps little thread and needle store in order
to give her husband and children bread, If Mr. Pet
re does not entirely succeed, he will have advanced
long ways in the solution of the problem and all
honor should be shown him for his noble sef-devo-
tion. He said the other day that he was SO certain
OF success and onged much for the moment of his
departure that he could neither sleep nor eat. So it
was with Columbus, with Galileo, with Newton, and
with the whole host of noble men whose researches
and discoveries have enlightened the world. Me-.
Petrle is now offering for passengers.

MEN OF HIGH INTELLECT FRETFUL. Many
people have idea that of high intellect is al
most invariably strange, uncommonly, untoward
offensive, and captious creature, of the genus ir-
rttabe,-a wasp in temper This is thorough mis-
take. l never in my lite knew a man of high intel
lect who was not witha kind agreeable, ready wit
ted, and, above all, highly amablc. 1t is pos
sible that it should be otherwise. A machine that
works well cannot fail to work smoothly and pleas
anty. We are not apt, while we are playing win
ming game' to lose either our temper or our presence
of mind. A man of genius indeed may chance to be
fretful and unconventional, few of them GER
tanly are; but then he must be rude, undiscip-
lined genius-a man of high intellect he hardly
be. 1t is your ambitious novice, your scramber up
the ascent that is generally during his probation
stumbling, slipping, nervous, and fretful blum
derer; all this for very simple reason-because he
is never sure of his ground and therefore
nand himself 1t is only in the process of transfor-
nation that the creature is feeble and Pnrbind in
consistent, purposeless and helpless. This sort OF
imperfection Is middle term the lower as we'll as
the higher natures, the vulgar and intellectual are
alike exempt from it, We may say of it what Cow
ley has said so admirably of something else,-
Vain shadow, which doth vanish quite

UNION MEN. Nothing has demonstrated more
cogently the feeling of vencration with which the
Union is regarded by the great body of the American
people than The effect produced by the cry cf disuniun,
and the formation of Union Party. 1t was indeed
an admirable stroke Of policy in the wire-pullers at
Washington to afix stigma, opprobrlous name,
to that large, loyal and conservative portion OF both
parties, who battling for the rights Of the States,
and who were fast winning adherents to their
The toades and noodles, The magnetized Parsans -
who wthout brains to think for themselves, and
who followed with untiring servily the lead of
whose voice they were accustomed to obey, echoed
they foresaw, the yelp of the " leadf Men
who had before felt deeply and keenly the outrages
which Southern men and Southern States had expe-
rienced were affg GIFTED at their association with par
ty branded with the name of disuntOnists. Their
intentions they knew were pure, the desire of dsso!
wing this confederacy of sovereign States had
for a moment been entertalned-the securlty of the
rights guaranteed by the constitution and the staying
the oicious interference Of the fell spirit of ano
tionsn the objects which they desired TO obtain.
They recoiled from the thought of attempting to
throw this Union and deceived by the astute tactics
of the political Gemagogues who contriving their
elevation under the clap trap of =" Mon Men,
Union Party,' they fell in the snare SO cunningly
devised for them. They had not the frmness to
maintain their position of States Rights M en-,
compatible as it was and is, with devotion to the
Union and the Constitution.
No one, who has read the slavery controversy of
the last years. and has the ability to comprehend
what he reads, believes that the States Rights Party,
the Secessoniss if the name suits BETTER intended
or desired 10 dissolve this confederacy. The mad
fury of South Carolina politicians, lashed into ungov-
ernabe rage by the firm conviction of future outrage
and the keen realization of present ndignities did
not receive the appreciation of that party, were
they willing, tile sequel proves 10 Cooperate with

duct afforded pretext for taunts against the
conservatives They sympathised with her in her
appreciation of the danger past, present. and future
that sympathy very nairey converted by the So
called Union-men into active participation and
cordial approval. M emarks Bulletin, (IWiy.)

A SMART TRIcK BY A New YoRK LADY OF FASHION.
The Brook yn Freeman gives description of finan-
ciaoperaton, which off at StewaIts Marble Pal
ace, New Y ork, the other day, which may safely be
set downa as disancng all competition lady dress
ed in superb style went into that magnificent depot of
hnery, and inquired for shawls. After examining
several of the. finest, the lady pitched that
pleased her fancy, and inquired the price. The an
sWer was S400. Upon contemplating the rich pat
terms again and again, admiring the soft fine tissue,
and induging in all the sweet charms that such an
object is calculated inspire, the lady determined
buy, and drew from purse of ample size and res
pectable appearance, an Nj on the Chemical Bank.
Now, the Chemical being in the immediate vicinity
o the Palace just across Broadway, and thousand
dollar bill being rarely offered at the Marble
Palace, the lady was desired to wait moment, per-
haps, to continue the pleasing diversion of examin-
ing the Cashmere, while a swiftfooted and trusty
messenger was despatched to the Bank. The answer
was satisfactory, the bill pronounced good by
the best possible authority, the shawl wrapt up,
the six hundred dollars in change given and rolled
into the respectable looking purse and The lady slow
y promenaded toward the door. Here she stops and
pauses, returns TO the where the Cashmeres
sold, she tells the clerk she has changed her mind
she prefers not to take the shawl without consulting
with her husband; there is possibility that that ex-
cellent person might think her trlfe extravagant
in making such a purchase. The six hundred dol
lars returned with the shawl, and the 80 re-
turns TO its resting place in the purse. The lady again
stops, the Cashmere still remains folded up the
counter-a pause ensues-then smile of good ma
ture plays the handsome features of Madame-she
says, achly addressing the clerk, ou will think
me fickle but must take the shawl" The thousand
dollar bill on the Chemical Bank is again produced,
the change given, the shawl taken by the lady towards
her carriage, and every thing is settled in sasfac-
tory manner. But on making up the cash account
that evening the Palace after shutting up the shop
windows and letting down the iron sdes there was
found thousand dollar counterfeit on the Chem
ical Bank. Then did the elegant and courtly clerk
of the shaws understand that something else besides
the Cashneres had been sold the counter on that
day. and that he had been victmized by regular
suffer.
