Getting Tpin the World.

Mr.. James Glaishcr, the scientific
nronaut, took his first spring voyage in
the upper air on the last day of March,
setting out from the Sydenham Crystal
Palace, near London. He has commun-
ioated to the English newspapers some
account of the journey. lie ascended to
hei ght of four and half miles, where
he found the temperature just at zero of
Fahrenheit's scale. In rising, the bal
loon made the first mile in nine minutes,
the second in ten, the third in nine.
As ballooning msy presently become a
fashionable way of getting little fresh
air, few notes of Mr.. Glaishcr's exper-
icnco will not be unwelcomc to the cn-
tcrprising reader. 1t is interesting to
know, for instance, that "at heights
greater than three miles the suns image
was seen reflected in water" At four
miles the pulse beat ninety eight in a
minute, against seventy six beats on the
ground. The higher you get the bucr
is the sky-at the greatest height it has
to the observer the hue of dark Prussian
blue. AS you near the four mile mark,
the heart beats quickly and loudly; and
we warn lady balloonists to provide
themselves with pearl powder and other
"aids to the complexion for at heights
exceeding three miles the face gets blue.
At four miles surface ice formed instant
ly, and Mr.. Gla;sher was forced to break
it to get water for his wet bulb thermom.

stated that the headquarters Of that or
ganZation was in Dubuque, and that his
authority and instructions came from
there.
After the death Of this man, his com
rade wishing to test the truth of some
things he had divulged, wrote to Du-
buque intimating that he would not be
unwilling himself to continue the busi,
ness of organizing lodges. 1t seems that
Mr.. Mahony was absent, and the letter
was answered by Mr.. llutchins, who at
that time was one of the editors of the
! Dubuque Herald. Our informant was
readily taken into the confidence of Mr..
Hutchlns, who wrote to him that, as
soon as MIR. Mahony returned. he would
send him all necdtul instructions for or
ganizing lodges among the soldiers, as
surlng him that that was the best place
to work. Mr.. Hutchins also wrote that
the Democrats were determined to have
control of affairs in this State. that they
would carry the election this fall, "peac
ably if they could, but :orcbIy if they
must y And farther, that either Maho-
ny or Dean would be- their candidate for
Governor, whichever appeared to be the
most available.
We publish the above statements, ro-
marking briefly that we get them from a
man we have known for years and consid
er entirely truthful ard trustworthy -
They furnish additional evidence of that
many have believed to be true, to wit:
that there is "A reasonable organization in
this State which is doing all it can to
corrupt and dcmoraliZe the army, to en-.
courage dcscrtion, and to plunge the
State into anarchy and strife which will,
at the least, prevent it from giving the
general Government any further aid in
suppressinc the rebellion In view of
these facts and the open expression of
contempt for the g. S. Government and
sympathy with the rebels that are heard
every day, loyal people are stark mad if
they do not, with redoubled diligence,
perfect their organizations and thorough
ly prepare themselves for defence and for
aiding the rightful authorities in exccut-
ing the laws.

Suggestive kemini~CenCc

In one of l.. D. Mansiicld's letters to
the New York Times, We ind the follow
ing suggestive "reminiscences:
"Our Revolutionary war was seven
years; our war with England three years;
our war with Mexico two years. Our
present war only a year and half; and,
mark, We are just beginning to under
stand war. There is parallel between
this and the war Of lSl2-'lJ, which is
quite instructive. Mr.. Madison was as
amiable as Liucoln, and could not look
upon blood with compoSure. In fact, he
was opposed to war, and compelled to ac-
ccpt it as the work Of his party. At the
very first election subsequently, the Fed
craists carried several States, ono Of
which was New York, aud Madison mar
rowly escaped being defeated. The war
came on with on y one in the cabinet who
had any taste for it-Jamcs Monroe. -
The Secretary Of war was DIR. Eusts, Il
revolutionary doctor. The Secretary IF
Navy was Paul Hamilton, who knew
nothing about it; and pinckney, the At
torney General, was opposed to the war
Hull dlSgracctulIy surrendered, Eustis
was put out for John Armstrong, aathor
Of "Ncwbury Letters;' and in 1914
Washington surrendered, and the CAPT
tol was burGcd. Armstrong retired and
Monroe succeeded bim. Russia propos-
ed mediation. 1t was two years after
the declaration before the war was prose
cuted with vigor. Then Jacob Brown,
and Andrew Jackson, ard Scott with his
double regiment, appeared upon the field.
Chippewa, Niagara, and New Orleans
followed, and the war closed in glory
The navy signalized itself against the
bulvarks Of Old England, and if it gets
a chance, will do it again. Such is De-
mocracy in war; weak in tho beginning,
strong in the end BE patient, then,
and every cloud that lowers upon our ho-
rizon will disappear before the coming
sun, unless God has decreed our down
fall.'

Their "Loyal Leagues" the first we know,
Will do our business;
And who's to up and make fuss

They'll make the peace we hoped to buy,

And long before that time, and long

Why hadn't we the gift to see

And when we saw the breezes change,
Why couldn't we put about?
Too smart for this. Behold the pass

his daughter to wealthy gentleman of
Worcestershire, when he Was led to
believe that one of his own chaplains,
Mr.. Jeremy White, a young man of
pleasing manners, was secretly paying
his addresses to Lady Frances. who was

Entering his daughters room one day,
