DEATH OF AN AERoNAUT-A letter from
Nlsmes (Sard., of the 29th ult., announces
the death of the RrOnaut Dechamps, while
making an ascent having been fixed for the
previous day from the amphitheatre, all the
necessary preparations were made. The
weather was 50 exceedingly stormy that NJ
Dechamps thought it necessary to signify to
the Mayor that there would be danger for M
Letur to descend by means of parachute, an
had been publicly announced In consequence
the Mayor authorized Nj. Letur not to perform
his part of the engagement entered into with
the public. A little after three i'll the after
noon, nj. Dechamps entered the car, and the
ropes being cut, the balloon rose rapidly above
the walls Of the amphitheatre, the wind then
carrying it rapidly in the direction of the
southwest. In proportion as il rose, the huge
machine appeared to become less agtated.
About ten minutes after the balloon had
Quilted the earth, it was observed to commence
descending, at first slowly and then much
more rapidly, its form at the same time being
perpendicularly elongated, as if from a sudden
escape of gas. Its fall then became so rapid
that every one that was looking on felt con
WINGED that an accident had occurred. The
balloon fell nearly seven miles from the town,
in field about half way between Generac and
Beauvoisin. mr. Dechamps was found lying
at little distance from the car, without any
sign Of life. The body was at once taken to
Beauvoisin, where medical aid was called in,
but without any result, as life had fed-Eng-
