The Contest for FlOater.

EDITORS CHRONICLE Disinclined as
we always are to mingle or rmeddle in poll
tics, nor are we now intending to violate
that rule of conduct, yet we cannot refrain
from making few suggestions in regard
to the prOpriety of electing DR.. j. c. Ell
lis at the election on Saturday the 18th Of
the present month.
I. 1t is proper that he should be elected
as a Teprc5eHtutiUc of a class of men who
are seldom persuaded into politics. That
is to say, that being emphatically one of
the people, interested in the welfare of the
people, himselfan old-fashioned farmer and
physician, lie not only knows and appre-
ciates the wants of the tax payers of the
State, but he combines those qualities of
moral worth seldom found in the aspirant
for legislative honors.
II. While his political opinions have
been well matured and scrupulously ad-
hered to, yet he has been both liberal and
modest, as well as pre-eminently just in
his dealings with his opponents in poll
ties.
III. To elect DR. Ellis will be like GO
ing back to original misunderstanding
the best men, men whose moral worth lifts
them far above party, to make laws for the
people. His election would speak volumes
for the people of this Floterial District and
do much towards bringing us all back to
where we can elevate ourselves above the
level of the partisan and vote because of
the fitness of the candidate for the position
he seeks.
We could say much more for Dr. Ellis,
having known him for more than thirty
years, but conclude by urging the people to
support him. ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

LOUISVILLE, Oct 3.-In the balloon ascen-

enings. Two men sprung for the car but only
caught the ropes. They were carried of, and
one of them fell at the height of thirty feet but
was unhurt. The other Professor Wilbur
clung to the ropes until the balloon had attained
the height of mile, when he came whirling to
the earth. AS he approached the earth he was
feet foremost he then spread out horizontally,
then doubled up and turned over and then
straigtened out with his head downward. As
he struck the earth he fell upon his head and
back, his head was mashed into an indistin-
gushable mass, and his body was bruised and
crushed horribly. His body made an indenta-
ton in the ground eight inches deep and it
rebounded four feet frem where it struck.
