Holes tic enUe.-Some months 400 q
portion of the carriage way of the avenue was
taken up Tor the purpose of facilitating GER
tain improvements Since there is no neces-
sity for the holes and breaks, it would add
greatly to the safety of persons riding or dri-
wing along this our principal thorou-hfare to
have them fllel up. We have heard many
complaints from various persons, about the
danger ofcrippling men and horses, and break
ing carriages in those gaps. Will the worthy
Commission obligc the public?
THE ConditioA Of tie City HaU.-Though
exceedingly fair 20 look upon from the street.
our City Hall is really internally in state of
woful dllapidation. Its brick pavcments
(withiu) are worn away, and in many places
dangerously loose; while its walls show plain
ly a great need of the services of painters,
plastercrs and carpenters. Would it not be
we'll for the Levy Court or the City Councils
to have the necessary repairs put upon it,
looking to Congress to re -imburse them for the
expenditures necessary to put in order the
portion of the building used for the Courts of
the United States and their various offices?

Monsieur PETIN, the celebrated aeronaut
from Paris, made an ascension from New Or
leans on Christmas day, acco mpanied by three
amateurs, of which the Picayune of the 29th
uliimo gives the annexed account:
About two thousand persons assembled yes
terday to witness the excursion Of M. Petn,
with three of his friends, in balloon. Every
thing passed off to the satisfaction and delight
of the crowd. The balloon was of immense
size, but the car was the great curiosity. Ii
was built in the shape of large skifi, with ex-
tensiye wings attached to the side, enabling NJ.
Petin to guide the direction Of bis aerial craft
from within. The car is built mostly Of cork,
lined around with cavities containing gas
The ascension took place soon after two
o'clock, amid the cheers of the crowd, the
stars and stripes flying from the lightvessel.
M. Petin for sometime could be distinctly seen
walking about in his frail structure, directing
its movements. The excitement Of the spec.
tators was much heightened by witnessing the
balloon pass through beautiful white cloud,
which for time obscured the floating machine
from sight. After rising 10 great height, the
balloon took different directions, according to
the will OF its pilot, but finally went of in a
southeasterly direction.
The Courier of the 9th chronicles the
return Of M. Petin to New Orleans as follows:
Inc DdlioOn dScendeu ABOUT 10 vUV Ieet, anu
was carried by strong wind to the eastward.
BY an accident in managing the, valve for the
escape of the gas, too much gas escaped, and
the balloon rapidly sunk and fell into the water
OF Lake Borgne, about mile from the land, at
l8 minutes pas: 4 O'Clock r. n. T.e boat or
