>PESDED FROM BURNING BALLOON.
"A the close OF the afternoon perform
ances oi Gradv's circus in Columbus,
Ohio, tive weeks ago, Mr.. Charles Fish
er made an ascent in huge hot air BAL
loon, or rather the balloon went up with
Fisher dangling to couple OF ropes
suspended from below. Immediately
blue smoke was seen to issue from q
point on the side of the balloon, about
one-third Cf the way vup from the mouth
to the top. Experienced eyes a
detected that the balloon was on fire,
the acrouaut, all unconscious of his dam
ger, went on with his frightful perform
ance on the trADeze. Wheu the balloon
was ab0ui 1900 feet in the air, the
flames We're seen to burst suddenly from
It's side. and simultaneously cry OF
horror went up from the crowd below.
Many turned away their eyes, and one
woman tainted, all expecting that FISH
er would at once meet a horrible death.
But whether it was that the material of
the balloon was not very intiamabie, or
that the hot air near the flame was not
favorable to combustion, certain 1t is
that the balloon did not burn rapidly,
and the aeronaut landed in safety upon
the top of slaughter house, near the
end of the Hooking Valley bridge over
the Scioto, while the burning balloon lit
in the river, the waters of which speed
ilv extiuguished the flames.

was sorely distressed Colonel McCrea
looked as if amused, but Sumner grew
indignant as her Majesty got wild, and
when she said
"You want war, gentlemen-you
and you think we cannot prevent it,
with this Crimean war on our hands !;
but we have plenty of arms, plenty of
soldiers, and if the worst comes to the
worst, well turn the negroes upon you "

thundered Sumner; Sin protecting our
rights and defending our flag, we care
nothing for your arms, soldiers, nor the
niggers."

disturbed movement on the part of the
officers of the household seemed to
recall the Empress to herself.

Two of the actors in this little drama

of her imperial robes, while the empire
itself has disappeared like the baseless
fabric OF a vision but Cuba, then
considered so frail a possession, yet
clings to the old Spanish government.
