GONG TO EUROPE IN A BALLooN-Mr. John
La Mountain, the eronaut, is again in this city,
where he will remain a few days. He has made
arrangements for the construction in Boston OF
a balloon, with which he designs to make an at
tempt to cross the Atlantic next summer. The
money is to be furnished by wealthy gentle
man of the modern Athens, who has sufficient
confidence in the practicabiity of the scheme to
make venture in if. The balloon is to be of
silk, with an asccnsive power which will make
it capable of carrying u life-boat stocked with
provisions and four passengers. The power it
is designed to embodyis the gun-cotton engine
-one of which, owned by gentleman of
Springfield, Mass, has been tested and found to
operate satisfactorily. Before the venture at
sailing over the ocean, 1T is designed TO make
threelong voyages starting from western cities,
for the purpose of testing the capacity of the
balloon and the effect of the employment OF ma
chinery. Mr.. WISE tho "father of ballooning
in America" who has been in consultation with
Mr. La Mountain, approves of his plan in all its
details, and will give him the benefit of his re-
markable experience in suggestions as to the
manner of carrying it o1t.
LADIES VS.. GESrLEMAw.-Threc things lady
cannot do:
lst She cannot pass millinery show shop

Sd. She cannot see baby without kissing it.
A lady turns the tables on the gentlemen as
follows:
1st He cannot go through the house and shut
the doors after him.
I'd. He cannot have a shirt made to suit him.
Sd. He can never be satisfied with the ladies'
fashions.

ship loads of young females were sent to the
Cape under the auspices of several good

the Colonial Bishop there. These females

find employment for them, Some did what
they would have done had they never left

immense magnitude are being prosecuted
with vigor and urgency. Everything that

readiness for active service. Unparalleled
activity prevails in all the British dock
yards II is the opinion of leading states
men should war continue, England will not
long remain neutral She fears France, and
looks upon its Emperor with jealous eye
Mr.. Mason says the Emperor OF France has
a stronger hold on the affections of the peo-
pie of France than ever before, and they
evince a determination to stand by him at
all hazards, and prosecute the war to the
bitter end.
Mr.. Preston writing from Madrid, states
that considerable feeling was manifested at
Madrid, growing out of the belligerent as
pect of affairs throughout Europe. The
sympathies of the Spanish people were with
