nallooplng out OF Paris.

Charles w. MAY, Of ParlS, formerly
Of New York, and VIM. w. Reyn-
oids, OF New York, furnish the fol-
lowing account of their trip In n
balloon from Paris, which place they
left ut the same time with Gambetta,
lott, balloons having risen at eleven
o'clock on Friday morning. When
about eight hundred yards up the
wind died away, the balloon remain
ing stationary over the Prussian
camp. Musketry was fred ut the
balloons, as was also cannon, the
parties In the balloons distinctly
hearing the whiz of the balls. The
prussians used fusees, endeavOring
thereby to set fire to the balloons.
ballast was thrown out Of the bal
loon, and it moved gently away.
During the trip, which lasted five
hours, several attempts were made
to land, but the presence of Prussians
In the vicinity compelled the party
TO throw out ballast and rise again.
They were finally landed at Rcye, in
tho department Of Somme, where
they were received warmly by the
people on account Of being Ameri-
cans. They lost sight of Gambetta's
balloon at about O'Clock on Friday.
1t landed at Montdidier, and they
were joined by NJ. Gambetta, at
An,iens, whence they continued their
journey by special train with him to
Tours. Along the route the Gam
4ctta was enthusiastically welcomed
l,y the people. The balloons were to
have left Paris two days sooner, but
were prevented by lack Of wind.
( Louis Blanc, and many o.her people
of distinction, came to see Gambetta
leave. The Americans in Paris also
lede farewell to Messrs. May and
Reynolds. Their balloon WAS private
property, ara was conducted by NJ.
DcIicvilliS!, a French marine officer,
whose GOODNESS and skill they much
laudcd. There We're pigeons in the
balloon, which were let loose to
r.turn to Paris. Mr.. May, who left
Paris as balloonist, saw Mr.. Wash
burile, who was well. Messrs. May
and Reynolds report that the Paris
ians are determined on the defense
sf the city, which was quiet and
orderly. The voyagers add that 1t is
impossible for the Prussians to cap
ture Paris except through famine.
The appearance Of Paris is much as
usual. The shops are open daily but
closed earlier than before the siege,
as are also the cafes. Tho Garde
Rationale arc constantly drilling,
and full Of the desire to fight to the
last. The Americans by balloon
brought Paris journals of 4th inst,
which notice the intended departure
that day Of two balloons. La Ic''itc
calls the attention OF the government
to the fact that an American General
asserted to be In Paris, means to
defeat the Prussians and cut of their
supplies, and says that such Gen.
er,,i as Sheridan, with $4,000 cavalry,
could easily accomplish this.--Er.

We ask the Southern Democrats to
recognize the fact that the North is the
real battle ground for political free
dom for their section. Here, where
the victory is to be won, if won at all,
we have no colored voters worth na,nt
ing. It is a contest between two par
ties of white men, and perpetuation
of the old quarrel about the rights of
the colored man only strengthens the
enemy, d. The negro question is the
only one on which the Radical party
agree it is their only principle of CO.
hesion. The surest way to prevent
the disintegration of the Republican
party is to keep that question alive,
and continue to force it upon the couu-
try as political issue. The Democrats
can become majority only by draw
ing Off some Republican votes but on
the negro issue the Republican party
can easily hold its own, and so long as
it retains the control of Congress there
can be no freedom in the South.-N.
z. World.

Symptoms of Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the
i edge of the ribs, increase on pres-
sure; sometimes the pain is in the
left side; the patient is rarely able
to lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder
blade, and it frequently extends to
the top of the shoulder, and is some
times mistaken for rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss Of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general are .costive,
sometimes alternative with lax; the
head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
considerable loss of memory, ac-
comPanied with painful sensation
of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at
tendant. The patient complains Of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton Of the skin; his spirits are low
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease,
but cases have occurred where few
of them existed, yet examination of
the body, after death, has shown the
LIVER to have been extensively de-
ranged.
/! AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. M'LANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better
eathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them FAIR TRIAL.

LOWELL vs. >WARMoTH.-A few days
since, We inquired ofquasi Radical the
cause of the rivalry between Postmas-
ter Lowell, and Gov. Warmoth, and
was surprised to learn that it was
merely for the leadership Of the oppo-
sition. He said Lowell is ambitions
to be Mayor of this city or United
States Senator, and as he fears War
moth may have other notions about the
dispose; of these places, he is anxious
to break him down. The latter, it is
understood, will be a candidate for ell
ection in case the people vote, at the
next election, in favor of the amendment
of tho constitution removing the article,
or provision, rendering him Ineligible
for q second term. It is feared that
his patronage and money may secure
the adoption of that amendment and
keep him in the ascendant. In that
event, Lowell considers his chances
doubtful for either the Sepatorship or
Mayorality.-.N o. Democrat.
