BALLOONlNG OVER FRANCE.
The Perils Of the Air.

Considering the great number of balloons
which have left Paris during the siege, the acct
dents resulting from them have been very few.
The cable a few days ago reported balloon As
lost in the Atlantic. We now have an account
of balloon captured by the Prussisns. One OF
the prisoners, an Englishman named Worth,
writes 10 his mother As follows
''THE PRISON, VERSAILLES. Nov. 5.
"On October =. L left Paris by balloon. in
company with three Others. We left with a
northeast wind, which would have carried us
into Belgium, but, the wind changing 20 direct
east, we were carried on to the Prussiaa lines.
We left Paris at O'Clock in the afternoon, and
as at half-past 1t was almost dark, we were
obliged to come down to the earth. Just as We
emerged from the clouds, at about go yards from
the ground, We were welcomed by shower OF
Prussian bullets, some of which pierced the bal

GIVE Us A BREED OF WALKING HORSES
What use are fast horses TO farmers? Can they
tor, roller, reaping machine, cart or wagon I?
No. A storm might arise and the whole crop of
hay be ruined, IL they had to depend on $40
horses to haul it in. There is but one use that
we can see that farmer might put them to-
sending for q doctor; but as farmers have yery
little occasion for this professional gentleman,
and never get very sick, q slower and surer
horse will answer better. Why then parade
these horses at the head of the lists at agricul-
tural fairs, and give them the biggest pre-
miums? November our practical farmers COM

for walking horses, which are a thousand times
more useful-Germdntoscw Telegraph.

A STRIP OF BLUE.
BY LUCY LARCoM.


Froa fss Atlantic RoztAlJ for Deesmbsr.l
Idonot own an inch of land,
But al see j. mine
The orchards and the moving fields,
The dawrs and gardens fine,
The winds nv taN collectors are,
They bring me tithes divine,
Wild scents snd subtle essences,
A tribute rare and free;
Ard. more magnificent than all,
MY window keeps for me
a glimpse of blue immensity,
A little strip of sea.
Richer am / than he who owns
Great fleets and argOsies;
have a share in every ship,
Won BY the inland breeze
To loiter on yon airy road,
Above the apple trees,
freight them With my untold dreams,
Zach bears nv own picked crew;
And nObler cargoes wait for them
Than ever India knew
My ships that sail into the East
Across the outlet blue.
Sometimes they seem like living shapes
The people of the sky
Guests in white raiment coming down
From Heaven, which is close by;
call them by familiar names,
As one by one draws nigh,
So while, so light, so spirit-like,
From violet mists may bloom.
The aching wastes of the unknown
Are half reclaimed from gloom,
Since on life's hospitable sea-
AL souls find sailing room.
The ocean grows a WEAKNESS
With nothing else in sight;
It's east and west, its north and south
Spread out from morn to night;
We miss the warm, caressing shore
Its brooding shade and light.
A part IL greater than the whole;
BY hints are mysteries told,
The fringes of eternity,
Gods sweeping garment-fOld,
In that bright shred of glimmering sea,
1reach out for, and hold.
The sails, like flakes OF roseate pearl.
Float in upon the mist:
The waves are broken precious stones,
Sapphire and amethyst,
washed from celestial basement walls,
BY suns unsetting kissed.
Ont through the utmost gates of space,
Past where the gray stars DRIFT,
To the widening Infinite, my soul
Glides on, vessel swift:
let loses not her anchorage
In yonder azure rift.
Here sit I. a. q little child;
The threshold of Gods door
Is that clear band OF chrysopr ase;
Now the vast temple floor,
The binding glory Of the dome
bow my head before.
Thy universe, % God, is home,
In height or depth to me;
het here upon thy tootstool green
Content am TO be;
Glad when is opened TO my need
Some sea-like glimpse of Thee.

Unwilling to be ShOt-A California
Editors Farewell 10 his Lady
Friends.

Emotional insanity having been SO often
pleaded successfully by husbands In California
ia defense of shooting or killing suspected GAL
lants, the San Francisco News Letter SAYS =
IAN mems wives who have, hitherto enjoyed
the advantage OF our acquaintance are hereby
notified that this ceases to-day, never to be re-
newed. 1t is with deep grief that we disrupt
the social relations which promised so much,
but We feel impelled thereto by the first law
Of nature. Our lady friends who have the
misfortune to be married to other and in
ferlor men will please stick like leech to
their legal protectors, and not recognize us
on the street. We have taken considerable
pleasure in their s0ciety-a pleasure which
we Halter ourselves has been mutual-but this
thing can no longer be permitted to go on
We trust that our mOtive-which is pure COW
ardice-will not be tmsconstrued. Somebody
perishes ingloriously every day for being upon
speaking terms with married women, and we do
not care to have our turn come round. Deeply
grateful tor the past fOrebearance of aggrieyed
husbands, We make our bow and retire Here
after our mods and smiles will be lavished upon
girls and widows exclusively; no others need
apply. WhOsoever shall attempt to introduce
US to his own wife, or that of another man. will
be regarded as c0nspiratOr against our pre-
cious life, and subjected to abuse in the col
tmns OF this journal. Nature is strong in US,
and we do not wish to die. Whenever we shall
feel desire that way, we shall treat somebody
wife with common courtesy, get shot, and 60
quietly to our reward"
