T In England, two scientific gentlemen,
Mcssrs Glaisher and Coxwell, on the 18th
ult, undertook tho hazardous experiment oI
ascending to the highest possible altitude in .
balloon Of immense size. The ascent wa.
made from tho vicinity Of Birmingham. p
Tho highest point attained was four and |
half statue miles, or 1890 feet--a create
distance than was ever before attained =
The temperature at four and half mile
was twenty flour degrees the barometer reaC
thirteen inches, and the dew point wa
minus ten. At this point, the hands be
came of blue color and the brain auC
stomach labored under severe nausea. Th'
popular belief that so great height canno
be attained without a ringing noise in th
ears, bleeding at tho nose was exploded
by this experiment. The pulse rose to al
alarming beight--that Of Mr.. Glaisher a
high as one hundred and eight. The fac
ulty Of hearing was quite acute.

A White slave.

A few days ago Col. A. d. Straight 5th
regiment Indiana volunteers, (who is by
the by one Of the men who, by his qualities
Of head and heart, by his energy of char
aeter and great executive ability, is entitl
ed to at least one star upon each shoulder,)
brought to our notice man who had been
all his life a slave, now sixty three years Of
age and yet is entirely white. A number
Of officers who were present made critical
examination of his person, and was con-
vinced that his claim 10 being white man
was we'll founded,
His features, complexion, eyes, hair
mouth, nose and chronological develop.
mcnt all combine in making him entirely
white. His own idea is that he was either
child Of misfortune or Of poverty, and
was turned into the negro quarters and left
to grow up slave, and this be argues from
the fact that he has known several similar
cases. His appearance and behavior i'm
presses one with the belief that he is a
faithful and worthy man. He cannot read
a word, has been repeatedly sold upon the
auction block, and says his name is "Sam."
He was at once christened by the officers pre-
sent by the name Of samuel Straight"
furnished with money for expenses and un-
der escort sent to Gov. Morton of Indiana,
as sample of some of their victims Of
that institution which even in war for ex-
istence nation may not touch.

The Charges OF cen. Pope.

The National Intelligencer, after noticing
that the charges made by Gen. Pope agains
certain officers in his report of the recen
battles, find their way to the public in &
shape different, from that which could be
desired remarks:
The gravity ofhis representations certain
ly call for strict investigation, and as it is
understood that, before starting to take the
new command assigned him, Gen. Pope
formally preferred charges and specifications
against the officers whom he has iuculpated
it is fair to assume that trial will be had
in due course, so soon as the exigencies Of
the military service shall permit court
martial to be held in the premises. As it
is represented that the officers impeached
await that inquiry in the full confidence of
being able to relieve themselves from the
cast on them by their late com
mander, il is only just that there should be
a suspension of public opinion, and, we may
add, Of critical or explanatory remark, until
the investigation is duly had.

A Novel Rat Trap.

Take mackerel barrel, for instance, and
fill tito about one-third its height with water.
Then place log endwise in the water, so
that one end Of it will just remain above
the surface. Make the head of the barrel
little TO small to fit, and suspend it by
two pins to the inside of the top Of the bar
rel, so it will hang as if on a pivot, and
easily tip by touching on either side. On
this head, thus suspended, secure piece Of
savory meat. The first rat that scents it
will, to get the meat, leap on the barrel
head. The head will tip, or tilt, and pre-
cipitate him into the water, and resume its
former position. The rat in the water will
swim TO the log, get on the end Of it, and
squeal vociferously. His cries will bring
other rats, all Of whom will be tilted into
the water, aud all of whom will fight for
the only dry spot iu it, viz; the end Of the
log. AS only one rat can hold it, the vic
tor will drown all the rest, and can in the
morning be drowned himself. We have
seen twenty rats caught in one night by
such trick.-Sunday Times.
