RADICAL VIEW OF THE NEW

The author of the following letter

the consistency and politics of that

Mr.. CroZier wrote an article from
which the following extract is taken:
at does not occur to the editor that
the same conscience that lmpelled
Senator Chase TO leave the Democratic

Professor Steiner, who made balloon ascen-
sion in Milwaukee on the 4th, and passed over
Lake Michigan, gives an account of his trip, in
the following shape:
At 81 the ascent was made the balloon going
north of the cathedral, clearing the steeple by
about fifty feet. In fifteen minutes an eleva-
ton of 5000 feet was gained when the ascent
became more gradual. AT this time the balloon
was some two miles out over the lake. Here a
most magnificent view was spread out beneath
the eye of the intrepid voyager. The coast was
visible for fifty miles in either direction: all the
villages and lakes in the interior were spread
out behind him, while before him the vast ex-
panse OF the lake stretched away till the horizon
terminated the view. The thermometer indi-
Gated temperature of forty degrees. The cur
rent in which the journey was begun was of the
rapidity OF about thirty miles an hour. This
held good for some thirty miles, when tie
barometer showed an elevation OF 10000 feet,
At this point, and at this tremendous height.
both shores of the lake were visible
for one hundred miles in either direc-
ton. The sun was fast sinking in the
west, and the view was beautiful in the extreme.
Here, for over an hour, at an elevation of - 900
feet, the current, which had been carrying the
balloon TO little south of Grand Haven, died
out, and the balloon was completely becalmed,
not moving a mile in that time. Forty.eght
| vessels were counted moving in all directions,
| The stiffness was most intense. The professor
| says that in all his experience he never before
mad realized such perfect quiet Not wishing to
remain all night over the lake, q descent to an
| eieVauon OF some 5000 feet was made, with a
view OF continuing it to the water and being

A USEFUL REPTILE.-Not only are toads
harmless, but they are absolutely and directly
useful to u.s. perambulating Our fields and gard
ems at night, and devouring vast quantities of
injurious insects which could never be DESTROYED
by the hand OF man. The mode in which a toad
takes its prey is very curious, The sngularly
beautiful eye of the toad is as quick as it is
bright, and if within the range of its vision an
insect or grub should happen to move, the
toad is sure to see it, and nearly certain to catch
it. First. the toad holds its head as high as pos
sible, SO as to make sure of its prey, and then
crawls slowly toward it, preierring to get under
it if possible. When it is nearly within reach
it gazes inteptly at the insect, its mouth being
gradually brought nearer and nearer Some.
thing pink then flashes from its mouth, and the
insect vanishes as if by magic.
The pink flash is the tongue of the toad,
which is formed in a rather curious way. The
base of the tongue is fixed close TO the front of
the lower jaw, and is long and taperng, the tin
pointing down the throat when it is at rest
When, however, it is used for catching prev. il
is thrown out with sort of Click" and the tip,
which is covered with glutinous secretion,
adheres to the insect, and conveys it down the
toad,s throat before the prey has time to make
an effort for escape, When the toad swallows
Its prey, 1t does 1t with mighty effort during
which the eyes almost disappear, the size of the

Indeed, the stomach of the toad seems ms de.

rent to the south-southeast was struck, blowing
about thirty miles an hour, and here the profess
sor determined to remain, us it would carry him
near st. Joseph, Mich. In this current the Jour
ney proceeded for about an hour, when the sun
went down and the earth was shrouded in dark
ness. There was now no longer any object to
be seen with which to compare the motion of
the balloon and guage its rapidity.
In such place, at such time, the sensations
experienced are most peculiar. Prof. Steiner
says that loneliness is no name for the feeling
that came over him. Beneath him was the black
void, overhead the stars came ont one by one,
and twinkled merrily in the vaulted sky. 10
ward the south thunder storm was seen, pass
ing over Chicago. At last the moon rose in
great beauty, adding new grandeur to the scene
The sight is said to have been one of the most
splendid that can be conceived. AT this time
(nine O'Clock, the balloon was 5000 feet above
the lake, some TWENTY-FIVE miles from the Mchi-
gan shore. BY the light of the moon the aspect
of the county was plainly visible. Here a brisk
westerly wind was encountered, which carried
the professor in an east southeast direction at
the rate Of fifty miles an hour Soon the Michi-
gan shore was reached, but not finding good
place to land the Journey was continued.
then; cannon was heard, and occasionally a vii
lage was indistinctly seen. About ten
O'Clock railroad train was heard laundering
along, and presently the headlight of the
locomotive was seen flashing among the woods.
The balloon was now going east very fast. 1t
was quite cold, the thermometer showing "a
degrees. The professor bundled up in his cloak
and began to feel very sleepy At length he
concluded to alight, as he was oyer fine farm
ing country, where he could make a good
descent The valve rope was pulled, and down
the balloon went comparatively near the ground.
Here fiddling and merry voices were heard, and
the aeronaut thought this would be a good
place to stop. So, at little after 10 O'Clock the
anchor was thrown out and after tearing up
fence, it held on to good bottom, and down
came the aiT-ship in a clOver-feld, beside a road
leading to Mattawan, a station'on the Michigan
Central railroad, twelve miles this side of Kali
amazoo. The descent was accomplished most
successfully, and once safely landed, the pro-
fessor heard wagon going past, and called for
help, when number of young men came to his
aid. They were greatly astonished ut what they
saw, and still more so when told that the strang-
err they beheld came from Milwaukee direct, by
the overland route, never before Travelled by
mortal man.

DESTRUCTION OF REGISTERS BY THE Pa
RIsIAN NsURGENTs.-Galignani gives the fol.
lowing account of the difficulty which has been
createdlby the destruction of registers by the
communists
mot fewer than six millions of registers have
been destroyed by the incendiaries of the com
mune, Those documents were, in conformity
with law, kept in duplicate. The flames which
deVoured the hotel de Vile destroyed the first,
and the second persisted in the palais de Justice.
Records of births, marriages and deaths have all
disappeared. The mscreants who DESTROYED
them, out of hate to society," knew well what
they were doing-namely, to throw disorder into
social relations. A long time will be required
before that monument of domestic life, ruined
by their barbarism, can be restored, In cases of
intended marriages, by the terms of the law, the
future husband and wife are bound to present to
the municipal officer the register of their births
and, in consequence, the parties whose mar
riage had alrea 1y been delayed by the war, now
knock in vain at the mayors door, as he, by
law, cannot prepare the road to their expected
happiness. Such is the state of things to which
the government is now attempting to apply a

Earthquakes are becoming New England

that it was only an earthquake, he was much

In the other towns in the eastern part of the

in New Hampshire. From several places in
that state two shocks were reported in quick
succession, lasting about half a minute, and vio-

SALMON IN NORTHEASTERN SIBERIA.-It is
astonishing TO see in what enormous auan-
titles and 10 what great distances these fish
ascend the Siberian rivers. Dozens of small
streams which we passed in the interior of
hamtchatka, seventy miles from the sea coast,
were SO choked up with thousands Of diving,
dead and decayed fish, that we could not use liz
water for any purpose whatever. Even in little
mountain brooks, SO narrow that child could
twenty inches in length, still working their way
lahoriogsly up stream, in water which was moi
deep enough to cover their bodies We fire..
quently waded In and threw them out by lie
dozen with our bare hands. They change
greatly in appearance as they ascend river.
When they first come in from sea their scales
are bright and hard, and their flesh fat and
richly coloredj but as they go higher and higher
up stream, their scales lose their brilliancy and
fall off, their flesh bleaches out until il is nearly
white, and they become lean, dry and tasteiess.
For this reason all the fishing stations in KAN.

mouth Of some river To the instinct which
