Navigation by Balloons.

So far, the main trouble with balloons has
been that they could not be steered upon
any certain course, for the reason that, after
leaving sight of the earth the eral nayiga-
tor is wholly uneoncious Of any motion and
has no means of judging as to what direction
ne is sailing, except by the angles formed by
certain stars Were it otherwise, the balloon
might be accommodated to certain regular
currents in the higher atmosphere, and so
be waited in the proper course. A sufficient
knowledge of Astronomy would remedy this
principal difficulty to- wit: want of infor
nation as to the course of the balloon. But.
the difficulty even then would not he wholly
remedied for shifting currents would still
control the motion of the @rial ships, in
spite Of all that could be done. Nothing, in
our humble opinion, will ever overcome this
difficulty but steam. Until the vessels des-
tined to sail the vast ETHEREAL sea, are fur
nished with the proper machinery and pro-
PEELED hy steam, there will never be any very
successful erial navigation Most persons
would ridieule the idea of using steam fol-
such a purpose. We believe it he wholly
practicable. 1t seems to us that sufficient
buoyancy could be obtained to support an
engine of light construction. 1t would not
be necessary to have a heavy one, and the
same mathematical calculation which would
elevate the present weight of balloons would
elevate a much larger weight. The world
will certainly see the day when air-ships
will be propelled by steam.

MAKING GAS FROM WATER.-On the even
ing of October %, the city of Wilmington,
Delaware, was lighted with gas made from
water undee the patent of Prof Sanders, of
Cincinnati. The Philadelphia Press says:
The charges were drawn from the retorts
the supply of coal gas was turned off; the
water gas was run through the pipes, and
Wilmington had light thrice as brilliant,
thrice as pure, as any it had ever known be
.ore.
She same paper gives the following as the
theory Of Sanders process:
The theory of Sanders process is this:-
Water, as steam, is decomposed by being
passed over red hot charcoal, and the result
ing gases, Hydrogen, carbonic oxide and light
carburetted hydrogen are chemically com
hined with heavy carburetted hydrogen, or
light-giving gas, by the decomposition of
resin or coal vapor simultaneously with and
in the presence Of the decomposition of the
vapor of water. At Wilmington gas works
are now three water gas retorts, aggregating
only one twenty-seventh of the cubical erea
OF their coal gas retorts, yet more productive
than the whole Of their present coal gas ap-
paratus, making l,200 to 500 #, per hour
The gas manufactured is superior in color
and strength of flame to that produced from
coal. Rosin is used as the carbonzing ele-
ment, requiring from twenty five to forty
pounds for every 1000 feet of gas which is
free from sulphur or nitrogen, and has an
odor rather agreeable than otherwise
The Bulletin understands that parties in
San Francisco have acquired the right from
the patentee to manufacture gas from water,
and that they will soon be prepared to ex-
hioit the process to the curious in that city.
