BlLLooN AscENsIoN-W understand that
Balloon ascension took place at Uniohvile on
Wednesday night the 10th instant, which afford
ed considerable interest to the large assembly
present, attracted from the surrounding neigh
borhood. The Balloon was Of large dimensions,
constructed by our friend Louis Ronemous.
He inflated it in The Public Square Of Union
vile; it assembled perpendiculary and naJes'i-
cally until about FIVE hundred yards IN the air,
and then proceeded in southeastern course,
passing over the mountain at point where the
upper Notifications are erected on the Mary
land Heights, and landed upon straw rick IN
Middletown valley. Many persons who wit
messed the beautiful scene speak Off in the
most glowing terms, and as an event that would
have done credit to a celebrated Balloonist.
1t was observed by several Of the citizens oil
this town, who describe the scene as magnit-
cent sight. Mr.. Ronemous was the builder oil
this Balloon, and is certainly an adept In The
Balloon line. 1t is his purpose, We understand
to send another in short time, which Will nc
doubt, prove as successful as the one on TIL;
occasion. We will venture to assert that ouI

Closing Scenes at Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 17th.-Many of the
delegates left yesterday and the balance will
leave to-day. The proceedings throughout
were most harmonious, and there was not a
single event to mar the good feeling.
The address, but not the resolutions. was
drawn by Henry ]. Raymond. 1t is merely
the resolutions elaborated. During its read
ing, the President requested spectators and
delegates to manifest no sign of approval
or disapproval until it was concluded, which
request was complied with until the follow
ing paragraph was reached:
Sand the ten millions of Americans who
live in the South, would be unworthy citi-
zens OF free commonwealth, degenerate
sons OF heroic ancestors, unfit ever to become
guardians of the rights and principles be-
queathed to us by the fathers and founders of
the republic, if they could accept with un-
complaining submission the humiliation
thus sought to be imposed upon them"
The entire audience then broke forth in
applause. The reading was repeated by re-
quest, and the applause renewed with re-
doubled effect.
The press club gave banquet to members
OF the press present last night, at which radi-
Gals and southerners fraternized with much

SEIZURE OF TOBACCO, &C., BY THE Cot
LECToR OF INTERNAL REVENUE. Dep
uty Collector of Internal Revenue, for this
District, on yesterday proceeded to the sales
rooms of our merchants and seized quaint
ty of Tobacco, found unstamped, and a
quantity of liquor and other articles which
were also found without the prescribed
stamp. In instances where property was
thus seized receipt was given specifying the
quantity of the article, and setting forth that
the seizure was made for violation of the
United States Internal Revenue Law.
This action on the part of the Collector
has given rise to some discussion as to the
Justice of the course. 1t is asserted on the
part of some of the merchants that the law
states that all Tobacco manufactured prior
to August, 1865, is exempt from taxation.-
In one instance where Tobacco was thus
seized we are informed that it was manufac-
tured prior to the war, but the Collector
gave as his reason for the seizure that it did
not bear the stamp prescribed in such cases,
that is it should be branded, by the Collec-
tor of the District wherein it was manufac-
tured, thus "No duty in late Instruction
airy States"
The Collector was assured that certificate
could be procured in confirmation of this
fact, but it was asserted by him that this
would have no effect in procuring release
of the articles taken possession of.
We are not sufficiently posted in the law
to argue the justice of the case, but presume
that it will be fully investigated by the par
ties interested. We have no doubt but that
Justice would be done, if the Collector was
convinced that he had misconstrued the law.

HENRY A. WISE ON THE CHURCHEs.-Ex-
Governor Wise delivered a very remarkable
address in Norfolk the other day for the ben
eft of the Southern churches devastated by
the war. Hetook the grounds, while abiding
to the late rebellion, which we have heard
before from Puritanical sources-but which
have been adopted for the first time by any
Southern orator-that the war was brought
about by the act of God for the destruction
of slavery, and, taking this view of the sub
iect, Governor Wise argues that no one
should be punished for acts committed &C
cording to the dispensations of Heaven
Governor Wise said:
"He is, I fear, an infdel who dosn't see
that the fire and sword of this war were sent
from heaven God knew that we could be
torn away from our black idol of slavery on
ly by fire and blood and the drawn sword of
the destroying angel of war. He sent them,
and we ought to praise the Most High that
he did not send worse plaques, like those of
Egypt, against whatever weakness or wick
edness we chung to like Pharoah But l APP
peal to Christian charity, and to every known
law, whether individual citizens and persons
ought to be vindictively punished by man or
government for the acts Of sovereign States
and heinevitable interposition ofDivine Pro-
violence"
This is certainly putting the responsibility
of treason and rebellion on very broad shout
ders but taking the general tone of the adj
dress, it exhibits very Christian, moderate
and charitable spirit. quite remarkable in the
ex-fire- eater of Virginia. -NeO York Herald
