STARTLING FeAr-A Paris correspondent o
the New York Times gives the following ac
count of the latest amusement dvised for th,
onder-loving Parisans: Hs
The feat Of jumping from balloon, the jun
per sustained by an India rubber rope, was du
ly performed on Thursday. II was the mos
stupendous exhibition of daring and address
that Che Parsians. have yet been permitted tc
witness, From one side Of the car Of the bal
loon hung The Indis-lubber cord, descendin,
l5o feet, and.Ihen returning and being fasten.
ing TO the other side Of the car. Il thus form
ed strong loop. The atheIete was dressed a,
Mercury; his body, from the neck to the small
ofhis back, was enclosed in frame work
which enabled him to endure the suspension
without wrenChing or disloCation. The rope
Passed through an evlet in the middle of the
back, placed SO that he was held in perfect e.
quilibrum. When the balloon had reached
an altitude double that OF the supposed elastic
ity of the cord, the Votigeur appeared on The
car, looked over, shut his eyes, and jumped in
to aspce. The eyclet slipped along the rope
so that the first l50 feet were = positive fall
through the air, without any resistance or
break, The rest Of the way was an elongation
of the rope. 1t stretched four times its length
making in all decent Of 900 feet accomplish
ed in two seconds. After having attained its
lowest point, the rope contracted once, perhaps
200 feet, and then descended again There
was no farther rebound; and no oscillation; the
voltigeur lay calmly craddled in mid air, and
probably spent the leisure be was now permit
ted to enjoy, in recovering his breath and con.
templating the prospect. The nronaut above
now commenced at the windlass, and gradual
ly wound his dangling friend up again. In
four minutes be climb over the side of the car.
having made the fastest time that any human
being has ever achieved, except such as have
been shot from cannon, rs Baron Munshausen
said he was, 600 feet in two seconds is at the
The rate of three miles and a half minute
We are waiting nov to know what will be done
next?
