This afternoon, the 18th, the long-promised
balloon ascension for military purposes, took
place. The elevation attained was not very
great, though Il was perfectly satisfactory az an
experiment. The aeronauts were Prof. Love,
Gen. Burns, ofthe Telegraph Company, and II
G. Robinson, operator. The balloon was con-
nected with the War Department BY telegraph.
The first message ever telegraphed from bal
loon was then sent TO the President Of the Uni
ted States by Prof. Lowe. II was as follows;

The CooLNDss oS THE YANKEEs.-When the
State Of Maine arrived at Fort Monroe with the
Massachusetts troops, the Virginia residents
around the fort, who are all secessonists,
were very much surprised, enraged and NOR
titled. They collected around the captain of
the steamer, who is cool and intrepid speci-
men Ola Yankee as England contains, and
told him significantly that the troops would
never go back to Massachusetts,. He replied
that that was the last thing they thought of;
that the country was-so fine they intended to
settle and send for their friends, and he was
going to New York to get another load. An
other set, belonging to an armed schooner en-
gagged in enforcing the local laws of Virginia,
insolently claimed the right of searching the
State of Maine for negroes. The captain told
them they should not go aboard to take out
anybody, black or white. They said by the
laws0f Virginia, they had the right of search.
He retorted that he knew nothing about the
laws of Virginia, but sailed by the laws and
under the flag of the United States. He also
assured them, if there were any negroes there
who were desirous of voyage to New York,
he should be happy to accommodate them: /:
and closed the conversation by saying, You
have been preaching all your lives that the
Yankees are pack of misers and towards,
who won't tight; now you'll have favorable
opportunity to test the accuracy OF your opin-
ions on that point

NATURES sALpHABEr.-Nature's alphabet is
made up Of only four letters, wood, water. rock
and soil yet with these four letters she forms
such infinite CONT mbinations, as no language of
twenty-four letters can describe. Nature nev-
er grows old she has no provincialsms. The
lark carols the same song in the key as when
Adam turned his delighted ear to catch the
strain; the owl still boots on b, fat, yet
loves the note, and screams through. other oc-
taves; the stormy petrol is as much delighted
to sport among the mad waves of the Indian
ocean as in the earliest times; the birds that
lived on flies TO mediate at eventide. as they
will two thousand years hence, if the world
does not break her harness from the orb OF
day. The sun is as bright as when Lot enter
ed the little city of Zoar. The diamond and
the onyx, and the topaz Of Ethiopia are still as
splendid. and the vulture's eye IS as, herce as
when Job took up his parable. In shorts na-
ture's pendulum has never altered, its viprsr
tions.

WASHINGTON LAYING THE CoRNER-SToNE OF
THE CAPIroL.-A correspondent of the Bangor
Wing tells the following anecdote of Washing
ton. ssRecent events call very forcibly to my
mind the following incident, which may, per-
haps, prove interesting to your readers at the
present time. Being on visit to w ashington !,
during the recess of Congress, in the spring
ot 1857, l walked one day, with friend, to
visit the works which We're already in progress
for the extension of the Capitol. AS we saun
tered among the pillars, iu the basement of
the old building, we fell in with venerable
looking man, having the appearance of a
countryman, who seemed to be there on the
same business that we were. We entered in
to conversation with him, and he informed US
that be was a Virginia man, raised few
miles down the river, not far from Mount Yer
non. Every likely, then,' we remarked, you
may recollect General Washington sPer-
fectly WELL he replied. s1ndeed, l saw him
when he laid the foundation of this building.
was but boy then, he continued, sbut L re-
member very distinctly how he looked as he
stood in this way over the stone, and settled
1T in its place with pry. 1t was ahuge stone,
and as placed, it must have required no little
strength to move it. But the General was a
very athletic man, and moved it apparently
with ease. Several boys from our neighbor-
hood were present, and it was marvel to US
all how the General moved that stone. A few
days after, the General happened to be riding
by our school-house, on horseback, as We
We're playing outside. We pulled off our hats
to him, and he stopped his horse for moment
and spoke to us very pleasantly. One of the
boys cried out, please, General tell us how
you moved that stone, up yonder, the other
day? ssWhy boys,' said he, smiling, did
move the stone p %, yes, General, you NOV
ed it, we all saw you.' Well, boys, said the
General looking very serious, and shaking his
long finger as he spoke, sDo goa see thar nobody
erer moues that stone again 20

THE VOICE THAT WINS ITS WAY.

The hearth might find les' care
But words, lik e summer BIRDS depar''
And leave but empty air.
A little said, and truly said,
Can deeper joy impart
Than hosts of words th at reach the head
But never touch the heart.

But, o, those few, how dear.

New ORLEANS othing works
out the destruction of the material interests of
a people rapidly as war, especially if the
expenditure obtains supplies from foreign
sources, Thus while all sections of our COM
mon country feel the pressure, it falls especi-
ally heavy upon the agricultural States of the
South. They have been Obliged almost en-
tirely to purchase their supplies for this un-
necessary rebellion, away from home, with the
cash down. we are therefore not surprised to
hear that bankruptcy has overtaken them.
New Orleans, as we learn from late New Or
leans papers, is a bankrupt city. At meeting
of the Board of Aldermen, on the 18th ult.,
the Chairman of the Finance Committee sta
ted to the Board that ssthe city was dead broke,
and that he could not see financial daylight"
Another Alderman. of large property, resign
ed his seat and the Finance Committee re-
ported in favor of suspending all new works,
to relieve the finances of the city in that quar-
ter. The Della, commenting on the city's
admitted bankruptcy, exposes another source
of anxiety. A large number of tax payers, it
says, are at the present time "utterly destitute
of the means necessary to pay taxes on their
sma II PROPERTY and should the time for pay
ment not be- extended, many will be COM
PEELED ssto allow their-homesteads to pass un-
der the hammer of the Sheriff." The Delta
alleges that the bankruptcy of the city, though
sslittIe over four months of this year have
passed." is largely owing to expenditures in
furthering the military movements set on foot
since the secession of the State. A sad pic
ture, indeed. The recently flourishing city
of New Orleans is prostrate. her credit and
business destroyed the inevitable result OF
secession.
