NAVIGATING THE ARA toleraby large num-
Der of spectators assembled at the Hippodrome in
Paris lately to witness another experiment in
sral navigation. The Drosatc machine which
was to ascend on this occasion is the invention Of
M. Gifiard. II is an oblong cylinder, somewhat
in the form of fish, Of about one hundred and
twenty feet in length, and about twenty feet in
diameter at it's thickest part, and gradually taper
ing of at both ends. The directing apparatus is
very small and beautifully finished steam en- CINE,
setting in motion a propeller resembling in form
the screw used in steam vessels. This lie sus.
pended, at about twenty feet beneath the balloon,
from long boom which is attached to it, and
which supports at its extremity a triangular sail
The preliminary preparations Saving been COM
pieted, and the steam-engine and its platform
inade fast, the @ronaut took his seat, the machine
rose, and went rapidly before the wind towards the
southwest Suddenly, by the action of the appa-
ratus, its course appeared to receive check, and
1t slowly veered round, thus proving some com.
mand OF the eronaut over his erial vessel. II then
steadily and gradually proceeded in the direction
OF the wind until lost in the distance. This ex-
pertinent is regarded as an improvement on those
which have preceded ii, and is the first step in the
science Of erostation.

LOCAL MATTE RS.

DEATH BY FALL.-On Saturday afternoon
colored woman, aged between forty and forty five
years, and who was evidently deranged, entered
Columbia College unperceived, and got upon the
roof OF the building where, by her loud and inco-
herent cries, she attrac ted the attention OF the in
mates of that institution. They endeavored to in,
duce her to return, but neither promises of pre-.
sents nor threSts Of punishment prevailed. She
ran as heedlessly the roof as If she bad been
upon the earth beneath, and thus successfully
eluded pursuit. Night coming on the attempt to
rescue her from danger was rendered more diff,
cult; and yesterday morning. at about four O'Clock
she fell from the Of the building to the
ground. Her lifeless body was subsequently dis
covered; and coroner's jury having held an in
quest over it, verdict in accordance with these
facts was rendered.
JUVENILE OFFENpERs.-On Wednesday last at
least a hundred boys assembled in Eighth street,
north of the Patent Office, and drove of num-
Der of painters employed upon a house in that vi
cinity, by throwing stones at them. On Saturday
officer Handy arrested of the offenders and
brought him before Justice Grub, who required
him to give security for his appearance at the next
term of the criminal court to to the charg
of rioting. He is about fourteen years Of age. 1t
appeared from the statement of a witness that the
boys the agents of men residing in the North
ern Liberties, who cherished ill will against the
painters account of proceedings connected
with the fire riot on the Monday night previous,
but who themselves either lacked courage to make
an open, daylight attack, or were afraid Of the
legal consequences
SMALL NoTEs.-There were but few small notes
received by the traders in the Centre Market on
Saturday; and those of the Corporation of George
town were generally preferred. In view of the
apparently increasing opposition to this species Of
currency, presume that our long established
banks will always be prepared to answer the de-
mands upon them for gold dollars.
ANOTHER New BANK.-Arangements are in
progress to establish in midst an institution to
be called "The Bank of Columbia" We know
nothing of its history, but it is said that the pro-
prietors intend, part of their business to issue
notes under the denomination of five dollars.
A DELEGATION of the directors of our Metropoli-

BALTIMORE CORRESPONDENTS.



baltimore, October l5-6 p. m.
1t having been satisfactorily uscertained, and
admitted by all unprejudiced politicians, that the
result Of the mayoralty election in this city was
produced by religious sectarianism, and the uncer
tain position of Captain France with regard to the
public school question, the Wings have gone to
work again in good earnest, determined "to pick
their f1ints and try il again" The ward meetings
are called again, and the Wing fires burning
as brightly as ever. Depend upon it, the Wings of
Baltimore will do their duty in November, and
their brethren in the counties need not anticipate
any extraordinary Democratic. majority in this
city to drown their efforts for General Scott.
The Recent Elections in Pennysluania Ohio and Bal
timors-Prosrsss Of the Campaign The Chances Of
Success, &c.
BALTIMORE, October 1916 p. m.
The Democracy of the country are holding a
grand jubilee the result of the recent elections
in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Baltimore, all Of which
they think combine to settle the question of the
next Presidency, and they in magination already
think they see General Pierce assuming the Exc
cutive post and commencing the partition of the
"loaves and fshes'' among them. So confident
are they that they look upon all who dispute the
point as politically demented.
In the frat place, they look upon the majority OF
$3.50 given to Mr.. Hollins for mayor as a sure in
dcation that the electoral vote of Maryland is safe
for their candidate whilst it is an asceraned fact
that the vote cast lacked full 5000 of the VIII ole
number in the city; and hundreds of Wings in
every ward are known to have voted for Mr.. Hol-
Inns, to have declined voting at all, because Of
his position with regard to the Catholic School BILL
Both candidates lodged the question; but Mr.. Hol-
Inns being rigid Presbyterian, no doubted his
position. This election, therefore, does not war
rant the expectation of more than thousand
Democratic majority for General Pierce, which the
believed cover, and leave a large balance for
General Scott.
The election in Pennsylvania on Wednesday
last, footing up about ten thousand majority for
the Democratic candidates for State officers, it is
contended by those who have analysed facts and
figures in connection Herewith, leaves that State as
much if not more in doubt than it was on the day
preceding the election. Ten Thousand majority
at State election in a commonwealth large as
that of Pennsylvania may under certain circum-
stances indicate nothing, and these circumsa nces
the Wings contend do not exist. The first OF these
is the email vote that cast. and the invariable
fact that small vote everywhere is double as inju-
rious to the Wings as to their opponents. annex
the full vote of such counties have been received
and compare them with the vote cast in the same
counties one year since at the election for Cover
nor; and even then the full vote OF the State was
not out by forty thousand:
