E Our City Council opened the City
Treasury on Saturday evening, and appro-
priatcd the large sum of 800 to assist in
making suitable demonstrations Of ouI
appreciation Of the great event that led to
our national Independence. One of the
members of the Council opposed it very
strcnuously, as waste of the public funds
but on call ror the ayes and nays, on the
adoption Of the resolution, the gentleman's
adopted patriotism got the better of his econ
omy, and he voted age
The proposition, by the same gentleman,
to appoint a committee of the Council to
superintend the expenditure of the sppropri-
.ation-for fear the fast young men on the
committee of arrangements might absorb it,
without giving the Council fair share OF
enjoyment-was voted down, and the sum
left; without any guarantee of discretion, in
'.the hands Of the boys" The only votes in
opposition to the appropriation, we are told
were accompanied with foreign brogue.

An Adventurous Balloonist.

A few days ago vessels passing up Lake
Erie saw large balloon with man in a car
attached to it repeatedly descend to the sur
face Of The water, and then rise again in the
air, and sweep on over the Lake. Several
attempts were made by boats from the YES
sells to rescue the @rial voyager, but on
their approach he was carried beyond their
reach. Speculation was excited along the
Lake shore to know who he was and whence
he came. He proved to be an eronaut from
Philadelphia by the name of Stein who had
assembled from Cleveland. When over the
Lake he counted thirty-eight vessels in sight.
and at the heighth of three miles he could
hear the shouts of the crews who caught
sight Of his flying ship. He struck the wa
ter three miles above the propeller Stewart,
and in seven minutes passed her about TWEEN
" rods astern. The balloon would strike
the water and rebound into the air from
twenty to fifty feet, as it rushed down the
Lake with railroad speed. Men in one of the
propeller's boats got hold of long rope
Stein threw out. The balloon dragged the
boat with will, and though the sailors pull
ed the row-locks off the boat, they could not
stop their novel tug. Mr.. S. then leaped in
60 the water, and was picked up while swim
ming. The balloon was swept of by the
gale. 1t cost $500, and is the third Mr.. s.
