tions of the coastguard or ife-saving stations
must be greatly assisted by having telegraphic
communication with the entire line and with
the country back of them.
These stations are now so near each other that
by rocket or by flag signal they can immedi-
ately communicate with each other, concentrate
forces and make the best and most timely use
OF their life-saving apparatus. ALI coasting
vessels will do well as soon as the new service
is put in working order to keep good look
out for the storm flag or red storm lantern OF
the Signal Bureau as they pass and repass the
stations And it will frequently happen that
the larger vessels and steamships after leav-
ing Atlantic ports will be in position to see
and improve the cautionary signal displayed
at the lighthouses and life-saving stations, and
thus to be forewarned of dangerous storm
moving toward them.
As the fruit of the inter-departmental cour-
tesy and cooperation between the Treasury
and War Departments it Is to be hoped the
new service will reflect credit on them both,
and prove a great boon to our shipping and
commerce.

The Lifc-saving and storm-Warning
Service on the Coast.
One of the most useful applications yet pro-
posed for the Signal Service is to connect its
system with that of the lighthouses and life
saving stations on the sea coast, and we are
glad to learn that arrangements to this end
have been made. At its third session the
Forty-second Congress provided for the estab-
lishment Of ten ife-saving stations, to be
located from the Maine to the North Carolina
coast inclusive, and the Treasury Department
has already executed the design of this legisla-
ton. The Signal Office, cooperating with
this important ife-saving service, under
recent act of Congress- will proceed immedi-
ately to connect itself by wire with the life
stations and lighthouses in order to signal
vessels passing within sight of tho latter of
dangerous storms and hurricanes in time for
their masters to escape impending danger.
The double system of life-saving and storm
warming service will begin at an early day,
perhaps in July, and will be extended first to
Sandy Hook, Cape May, Montauk Point,
Minots Ledge lighthouse and Long Branch,
and thence, as rapidly as possible, 10 Maine
and the coast of Cape Hatteras.
1t not unfrequently happens that o storm
signal displayed at some of our seaboard capes
would be visible in o single day TO several
hundred vessels which would be cautioned to
put back 10 shelter or to take other suitable
means Of weathering the gale. This is prac-
tically new service, or new application Of
the weather forecast, which will be Of great
utility, not only as heretofore to the seaman
contemplating voyage but to the seaman
under sail. When this cooperative system is
complete our Atlantic sea front will be well
guarded by an active and efficient line Of SEN
tinels. The honorable emulation enlSindled in
both branches of the service will be highly
stimulating and beneficial while the QpeSR-

IN A THUNDER CLOUD WITH
A BALLOON.
BY PROF. JOHN WISE.

The first time | was ever swal-
lowed up in a storm-cloud, hap
pened to be in suddenly gen.
Grated hail-storm nimbus during
an ascension from Carlisle, Pa.
A hail-storm Is not a very large
meteor, but it is very violent in
its gyratory action A.; and when
it sucks a balloon into its ver-
tical air-hopper, the eronaut
may look out for a little rough
usage, and not the least of his
troubles will be a nausea SINH
lar to that Of sea-sickness, fol-
lowing the swinging to and fro,
compounded with gyratlons Of
the air-ship. 1 will, however,
for the present, describe an ex-
perience of travelling inside Of
a thunder-gust for a distance
Of nearly a hundred miles along
the Ohio river, In a balloon voy-
age from Portsmouth, Ohio, to
Point Pleasant, about four miles
above Gallipolis. Straight a.
cross the country from Ports
mouth to Gallipolis is not much
over half the distance it is by
the course of the river, but
thunder-storms have a penchant
to trail their watery drapery
along river channels. ~
The ascension was made in
the afternoon, between four and
five o'clock, and right in the
face Of an approaching thunder
gust coming from the northwest
On attaining a height of three
quarters Of a mile, | discovered
a second thunder-gust coming
along from the southwest. My
balloon was situated on the
apex Of the two lines Of the
approaching storms, and already
gave indications Of being COB,
bled up in the vortex Of cen.
tralizing air incident to storm.

For His Mothers Sake.

A young man, who had left his home, rudd
and vigorous, was seized with the yellow Il
YER in New Orleans and, though nursed wit
devoted care by friendly strangers, he die,
When the coffin was being closed, "St0p,
said an aged woman whe was present; 81
me hiss him for his mOtherP'
Let me kiss him for his motherl
Ero We lay him with tile dead,
Far away from home, another aE. q
Sure may kiss him in her stead.
How that mothers lip would kiss him
Till her heart should nearly break!
How In days to come she III miss him!
Let me kiss him for her sake.
Let me kiss him for his mother! aH
Let me kiss the wondering boy;
Itmay be there Ia no other
Left behind to give her joy.
When the news of woe, the morrow,
Burns the bosom like q coal,
She may feel this kiss ofsorroW
Fall as balm upon her soul.
Let me kiss him for his mother!
Heroes, ye, who by his side,
Waited on him as a brother
Till the Northern stranger died.
Needing not the foul infection,
Breathing In the fever breath,
Let me, OF my own election,
Give tho mothers kiss in death.
Let me kiss him for his mother!
Loving thought and loving deedl
Seek nor fear, nor sigh to smother
Gentle matrons, while We read.
Thank the God who made you human,
Gave ye plying tears to shed;

go into the whales belly, not
entirely regardless of conse-
quences; but being well pro-
vided with gas and ballast, I
was consoled with the knowl-
edge that | could escape from
this leviathan of the air by
using the means of gravitation
in letting out gas, or Of levita-
ton by disposing of the ballast.
The two storms were ap-
preaching, as it were, in grand
battle array, with laundering
explosions. The discharges of

frequent; and when the two
storms clashed, they became
terrific. It was a scene of aw.
full grandeur. | had a mind to

certainly to be well shaken

were by the nape of the neck.
The intelligent reader may
here be reminded that a thun-
der-storm is not an accidentally

onward progress by the undu-
lations of the earth's surface

and mountain gorges. These
meteors often take short turns
to pass into a deep valley
When they happen to plunge
against q mountain side that
lies in their course, they often
become tangled in the noun

like things Of life, and gives
rise to those destructive noun

bursts" The rain that would
otherwise spread over q great
surface is by this stand-still of
the meteor poured down against

surface of the mountain side.
1t requires no strained ina
| gination to give interest to storm
scenes as viewed from above
them in their midst; and when
it is considered that a balloon
is not in the predicament as q
ship at sea is in a storm, the
scene may be viewed with an
assurance of safety that is rare
ly felt upon the water. The
sea-ship has two elements to
contend with. The air whirling
round in the vortex Of q storm,
and the thousand times densei

and cracks 1t to pieces. The
balloon has but one element to
contend with, and it matters
not whether the current is one
mile an hour or one hundred
miles; to the air passenger it
is all the same; for he knows
not that he is moving at all un-
less he can see some land
marks to give him an idea Of
motion. In a thunder-cloud,
however, there is a perceptible
motion, not violent, but disa-
greeable. The motion is gyra-
tory--a swinging to and fro
and going round in a circle at
the same time-and this mo-
ton produces nausea like sea-
sickness. The huge black prec-
ipices of nimbi, or the brilli-
antly Illuminated lava-looking

These two storms merging
into one having met at an angle
in the course of the river where
it tends off from a southwest
to a northeast direction of
stream, it followed the course
Of the Ohio up to the mouth Of
the Kanawha river, and there
it made a turn up that water
course. Sailing in this meteor,
I was constantly surrounded
by electrical phenomena. While
the discharges Of lightning were
almost incessant, laundering
and crashing out of the thick
vapor with vivid, zigzag bolts
darting down toward the earth,
they never seem to explode near
the balloon. Most OF the time
the balloon was sailing in a
clear atmosphere between the
upper and lower clouds, though
right in front Of it, and within
a few hundred yards, the upper
and lower clouds were joined
in the form of q water-spout,
and from this conjoined mass
the discharges were mainly taxi
ing place, though occasionally
a more distant explosion would
occur. The central explosions
were so frequent and terrific
that l dare not let the balloon
rock in the vortex, and in order
to avoid this I had to pay out
ballast and gas, causing the
balloon to rise and fall, and by
that means be thrown outward
in the upper cloud, whenever
the lower cloud had rocked II
too near the central uprising

tance Of nearly a hundred
miles by the course OF the Ohio
and reviewed it from va
rious positions, the limited
amount of ballast remaining on
hand admonished a preparation
for descent Before coming
down, q dozen Or more copies
of the Portsmouth daily paper
were thrown overheard, and
they were soon drawn into the
vortex of tho storm. One of
them fell into my hands again
the next day, as will be ex-

to descend slowly and eau

made a lodgment before the

ly-appearing apparation was

ajar, ventured the question of,

flew open, and at the same time
she exclaimed, "Come out, Joe I;
