HrOnautics have been reduced to a
scIence-at least so far as initiating
balloons and making ascensions and
descensions. No successful expert
ment has yet been developed, of re
sisting.. counter currents, or lacking
in opposing winds. The recourse of
the balloOnist has been to seek other
strata of air, either higher or lower,
with the object of pursuing the same

'.such desiderata have been discovered,
as will enable the balloonist to take
direction at will, but they have not
been disclosed

Richard Clayton made an ascension in

considerable peril. Gas works had
not then been introduced, and he had

The balloon was indifferentlv inflated,

the car, adventurer and ballast in a

reering over the Kentucky hills, until

some sixteen miles distant.
This was not the most imminent
peril encountered by Mr.. Clayton
Some time afterward, he made an as

day was bright, and there was a multi

his aerial steed, he assembled to a great
altitude, and was preparing to descend,

LEyEE SURVEYS. The New Orleans
Picayuns says that Major Green, Chief
Engineer of the first Division of Lou
isiana Levees. has made an important
report to the Board of Levee Com
missioners, in which he states that be
has one party operating on the right
bank, from Red River Landing, south
and another in charge of II. \, Pat
terson, operating from Red river land
ing down the Atchafalaya He pro
poses to extend this examination as
low down as Cow Head Bayou, a dis
lance of some forty miles from the
mouth of the Atchafalaya, for which
distance, if the levees are kept up, the
most valuable portion of the parish OF
Pointe Coupee, stretching along this
stream, viii be protected. He recon-
mends a strong Ievee made forthwith
at the point known as the Burmese
Levee, some ten miles from the mouth
of the river, and through which large
crevasse has existed for months, in
undating a large area of country, and
which has ceased running. The Atch-
afalaya having been examined to Cow
Head Bayou, Mr.. Patterson's party
viii return to the mouth of Red River
and conduct the survey and traverse
line upon the left bank of the Missis-
sippi. The creYasses through the
Morganza and Grand levees have
ceased running, and from a personal
inspection Major Green found the
ground at the Morganza levee less cut
than was anticipated also a good
deal of the new levee remaining. The
whole of the Grand Levee is gone
Both of these levees, the Chinn and
Robertson, will be located when the
party reached them, according to in
structions, to be submitted at the next
meeting of the Board. In accordance
with the Majors suggestion, the Board
passed resolution authorizing a third
party to extend the survey between
the city and the forts. 1t is recon.
mended that the Red River Landing
and Hog Point levees be repaired
forthwith.

@ After our own great struggle,
we can look on the present European
war with a composure amounting al
most to indifference. Prussia and
Austria, especially Prussia, are pound
ing each other in a.style that must
carry delight to the hearts of military
geniuses Prussis, at our latest advices
has a most decided advantage in the
mere fighting, but battles and diplo-
macy, are so inseparablp connected in
European politics and war. that we,
from our experience under a republi-
can government, can have but little
idea of the influences affecting the in
ception or the conclusion of wars or
campaigns The great silent forces
that move the chess men upon the
chequered board of European politics,
are sometimes only understood after
the death of the sovereigns who seek
present qualification, or an endur-
ing advantage, or fame, for themselves
or their country, In our own late
war, armies were to be raised, equip
ped and disciplined before the earnest
purpose of each party could be fully
understood, but we see in the ar
mics of Prussia and Austria, bodies of
men who have been in training for
years, for the single purpose ofwar, led
by skillful and experienced officers,
we almost smile at their caution.
The oldest field officer in the world,
commands the Prussian advance
Old field marshal Wrangel, whom
Benedek, the Austrian Chief affects to
despise, is now ninety years Of age. He
fought against Napoleon in some of
the great Continental campaigns, and
commanded the Prussian Contingent in
the late operations against Denmark
From present indications, Austria
will find that catching a Prussian, IS
synonymous with having caught a

fortunate in having an ocean between

the religious simplicity of Havelock,
with the genius of Napoleon, the he
roism of Bayard and Sydney, and the
untiring, never faltering duty of Wei
