the appointment of Radical. Mr.. Wickersham was

| AsoENeIoN OF PROF. LIGHT, ON sATuRDAY-HTs
VOYAGE, DESCENT AND RETURN re WILMINGTON
The event of Saturday was the ascension OF
Prof Light, of Lebanon, Pa, in his balloon, the
Ariel, from the yard of the Lafayette Hotel, Och
and Shipley streets. An admission of rs cents
was charged into the yard, and consequently
only about 200 persons gathered there. But ia
the streets outside vast concourse of people
collected, numbering many hundreds and the
adjacent house-tops were crowned with persons
ANXIOUS 10 see the Professor start upon his ierial
voyage.
The process of imitation was very slow indeed
connection had been made with the gas main
in Shipley street, and the gas was conveyed
thence to the balloon through pipe of oiled
silk Ohe same substance of which the balloon
was made), but the pipe was toe small to vent
the gas rapidly, and at one time it was shut off
altogether. 1t required 10. 900 cubic feet Of gas
to initiate the balloon. The interim of expectan-
cy between the commencement of the initiation
and the time the balloon stood up full and sym
metricaly rounded with the gas was one of the
greatest lmpatience 10 most Of those who had
gathered to witness the ascension. Others how
ever, enjoyed the wait splendidly, il we may
judge from the frequency with which they re-
paired to the bar room of the hotel. The todium
was once or twice broken by disturbances inside,
but they were soon quelled by the police who
were on the ground.
About G. 80 p. NJ, the baeket was attached and
everything being in readiness, the Professor
started on his upward trip few minutes there
after amid the huzzas Of the crowd. As he pass
ed over the trees in the street he poked his head
and shoulders out between the ropes and made
recognition OF the shouts of approval from the
spectators. He then began the distribution Of
circulars announcing, we, suppose his next as
cension which foated in the air and then fell to
the earth below
The trip through the air was neither a very
long or high one. The highest altitude reached
was something less than half mile, and the de-
scent was made near Bellevue station, on the p.
W. x b. r. r., about 215 miles north OF the city,
After rising from the yard, the balloon kept
one course-north-eastw had the Pro- |
fessor continued he could have reached Phila- |
delphia. The ride he describes AZ very pleas
ant one. He was up in the air only about half |
All hour.
When he had descended, the Professor pack
ed up balloon and hired a conveyance back to |
the city, arriving between eight and niue clock
Another ascension will be made on Saturday
next, from Shutzen Park, Of which more anon.

THE usH OF PRoFANE LANGUAGE.
TO he Editor ofdae Commercial:
TheprActice of using profsne language hay-
ing become 80 common that sober people cannot
out the liability of having their ears shocked by
hearing the Sacred Name profaned; those who
give way to this habit are desired seriously to
consider that they are committing q sin iu the
sight OF Him who commanded "Ihou shalt not
take the name of the Lold thy God in vain, for
the Lord will not hold him guiltlees who takes
bis name in vain" Such are also perpelrating
crime against civil society, because disregard
for the restraint of religion, which does certain
y accompany this practice, must lessen that re-
ty of our government.
IL NAV safely be asserted that.the practice of
protane swearing is one of unmingled evil II
is an insult offered by finite and falible crea-
ture, to the infinite and Holy Being who created
MIN. IL destroys all respect for sacred THINGS
lowers the standard Of morality, y,-brutaliaes
the character and conduct injuries the reputa-
tion n,-and is, in short opposed to all the best
interests OF society. II is crime equally with
out reason, and without excuse. IL neither
raises mans character for veracity, intellect
taste. or courage. In every light in which 1t
can be viewed, 1t appears melancholy dereic-
tion from religion, virtue, and decency,--
ly nnpEoftable, shameful, and wicked.
The only sure preservation from this awful
crime is to cherish iu the heart feelings of rev.
erence and love for our Oreator,-avoidinR the
frequent, and especially the light and Thought
less use OF his name, which never should be ut
tered but with solemn feelings and with purified
lipsi shun every form of expression the tendon
cy of which is even doubtful. " Remembetlthat
for every idle word that men shall speak, they
shall give account thereof in the day of judg-
ment"

THE FOUNTAIN AT FRONT AND WEST sTs.
TO aae Editor Of he Commercial
Permit me to inquire through your columns,
why the lamps are not lighted at the public foun-
tain, at Front and West Streets. This is a very
dark neighborhood, at night, and it is not very
pleasant for any one OF the travelling public who
wishes to get drink or water his horse, to dash
against the fountain in the darkness at the risk
OF some damage either to the animal or the per-
SOD in search of water. There is greater need
for light here whore there is more travelling of
wagons at night than on Market St., and they
should certainly be lighted since the gas Com
pany is kind enough to furnish gas for nothing
