Ballooning. u

M. Alexander Chevalier, who assembled
in balloon last Saturday, from Land
mans Park, descended near Flushing in
the evening, on finding that he was on
the point of going out to sea. He had
contemplated remaining in the air a day
or two in order to make observations re-
gardlng the currents, but in consequence
of his aneroide and mechanical barome-
tiers, his ordinary and spirit -compasses,
and his map not having been sent in time
for the ascension, heicould not have re-
manned long above with any satisfaction,
even if he had not been threatened with
an ocean Journey. He took with him
only small thermometer
Mr.. Chevalier rose to a height of $500
feet He passed through two layers of
rain clouds, and became drenched to the
skin, and then assembled to a range of
white vapor Clouds which enveloped him
as in deep mist. On rising above
them he opened into broad sunlight,
with the thermometer at freezing point.
The sky was of, a. deeper blue than seen
from the earth, Nand the white clouds
below shone with dazzling lustre.
His balloon was Of a peculiar construc-
tion. By pulling a rope he opened a
valve at the top three feet in diameter.
The gas rushed out and the air was drawn
in from the neck, seven inches wide,
which is always left open. The lower
part of the balloon then collapsed and
shrunk edwards, forming kind of roof.
His weight in the basket prevented a
shrinkage of the upper part. The weight
of Mr.. Cheyalier made the balloon form
a parachute, and he descended with ease
and safety. tFrlr

What the President Of the Bunk Has to Su,
ON the Subject.

What the President Of the Bunk Has to Suy
ON tho Subject.
NO new developments were MADE yesterday in
regard to the recent embeZzlement by the Cashier
the Central National Bank. It cannot yet be shown
that over 100000 have disappeared by the dis
honesty OF its late cashier but conversation with
Mr. wheeock the president Of the bank, yesterday,
revealed suspicion" on his part not hitherto ad-
mitted. Mr.. WheelOck stated that he had now very
strong to believe that OF the alleged $780, 900
deiacation, Mr. Sanford had not lost all In spec
uation, but that he had taken considerable
sum with him at the time Of his sudden dis
appearance, and was, therefore, at present by no
means short OF money. MIR. WheeOCk did not be-
lieve Sanford to be 'cOnsttutionally thief but he
had, however, irretrieyably disgraced himself in
using the money Of the bank even If taken with the
intention Of returning 1t as soon as he should have
succeeded IN retrieving his temporary misfortune in
his secret stock and gold speculatons
Strange to say, the president Of the bank has not
he states yet been able to discover what period
began to make free with the money entrusted to the
safe keeping OF the bank by Its trusting correspond
ents. The expressed impression that these unjus-
tifabe operations Of the cashier Of very recent
date Ia not joined IN by Mr.. Wheelock, who, how
ever declares himself unable to say positively when
the aniucky little operations really were begun by
The amount Of bond given by Messrs. Clark,
Pardee l. Bates when Mr.. Sanford, who had been
partner in that firm, entered upon his duties as
cashier OF the Central National Bank was $40, 600
and the alleged defalcation being 100000 would
president stated that should it appear on examina
ton that Mr.. Sanford had, on leaving, taken no
money with him rom the bank-that Is that the loss
to the bank would consist only money previously
taken by Mr.. Sanford to carry on his specua1Ons
In Wall street.-the matter would not be placed In
the hands Of the detectives but the mantle Of charity
would be thrown over the crime OF the I'M
fortunate cashier, and he would be left to
pursue his way unmolested save by the re-
morse Of his own conscience. Since, however
strong hopes are entertained that In OF the
rest OF the defaultng cashier some of the missing
bonds may be recovered, the matter has been
placed In the hands Of detectives. Mr.. WheelOck
the president Of the bank, expresses strong hopes
that Sanford will be captured ct an early day. In
reply to the suggestion that the cashier might have
left for Europe Mr. Wheelock expressed the utmost
lection Of the unfortunate man for his family and
home to insure his Whereabouts being discovered at
no very distant day.

Eiysian Fields Hoboken, and although an exhibit
ton OF fine playing IL would not stand very high on
the record it was the means Of affording good af-
