of his trip to that region: left Olympia
on the 18th of May and arrived, by the
way of Skcena, in Germansen creek on
the goth of June. We were 10 days from
the mouth to the forks of Skeena, and 10
days from the forks to Germanscn. There
were from l to feet of snow, from the
forks to the diggings, when we went in.
and considerable in places when we re-
turned. Stopped on Germansen 5 or 6
days, but as tho water in the creek was
high there was no mining carried on by
anybody. have been to great many
mining excitcments in California, Oregon,
Idaho, etc., but never yet have seen the
want and misery witnessed on German

without provisions of any kind, except a
few beans and what they could pick up in
the shape of mushroom and few fish !;
trying to drag out an existence in hopes
that something might turn up. But from
what I could see those were vain hopes.

board, and yet the papers in Victoria will

THURSDAY EVENING. AUG. "a. 1871,

SUSPENDED FROM A BURNING BAL
IOoN.-At the close of the afternoon per-
Torrance of Grady's circus in Columbus on
Thursday, Mr.. Charles Fisher made an as
cent in a huge hot-air balloon, or rather the
balloon went up with Fisher dangling to a
couple of ropes suspended below. lmme-
diately blue smoke was seen to issue from
a point on the side of the balloon, about
one-thrd the way up from the mouth to the
top. Experienced eyes at once detected
that the balloon was on fire, but the aero
naut. all unconscious of his danger, went
on with his frightful performance on the
trapeze. When the balloon was about 1900
feet in the air, the flames were seen to burst
suddenly from its side, and simultaneously
a cry of horror went up from the great
crowd below.
Many turned away their eyes, and one
woman tainted, all expecting that Fisher
would at once meet q horrible death. But
whether it was that the material of the bal
loon was not very infammabe, or that the
hot air near the flame was not favorable to
combustion, certain it 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
speedily extinguished the flames.-Ctsci'a

MoRNIoNs AT SARAToGo.-MissJ Jane,
daughter, and Mrs. Ava, wife of Brigham
Young, have been stopping at Saratoga, for
the past few days. The Saratoga S,ps says:
"The wife was a fair, wholesome looking
woman, and the daughter really a beauty.
She is of good size, fair complexion, rosy
cheeks, flashing dark eyes, plump, pretty
figure, pouting cherry red lips, which gave
at least one Saratoga young man good,
healthy, fragrant sweet smack right on the
mouth at parting. We learned that Miss
Jane was not daughter to Mrs. Ava, but
the offspring Of one of several other wives,
which probably accounts for her good
looks.n m 8e
