TO EUROPE In A BALLOON.


Messrs. Wise aud Donaldson, expe-
rienced aeroRauts. purpose starting on
balloon voyage from New York to Eu-
rope some time this summer. The pro
prietors of the New York Graphic, a
sprightly and enterprising daily pic
torial journal, have subscribed $l0,OOO
in aid of the enterprise, and now the
question arises, is the scheme prachca-
ble2 Ii is claimed by those who have
invaded the realms Of upper AIR that at
IA certain hight there are undertaking
currents of air flowing from west tc east.
The objections raised are. that the cur
rents of air may flow toward Spitzber-
gen and sweep the balloon into the
Arctic circle, probably to the pole,
which has been the object Of search by
daring navigators for years past. This
would be more satisfactory result than
landing in Europe. Recent experiments
by balloonists in England 90 to prove
that the eastern flow Of the current is
false in theory and fact, and that the
upper current has variations. The
difficulties Of the air line are almost
insuperable. A well known scientist
saws il is assumed that the air currents
depended upon run from southwest to
northeast. If this be true, then bal
loon going up in New York and cross
ing the ocean, instead OF striking Eu-
rope near England or France, would do
so in the neighborhoed of Spitzbergen.
Ii line be drawn on map from New
York to Europe the force of the objec-
ton becomes manifest. Even to strike
John O'Groat's, if driven in northeast
line, a balloon should ascend at Panama,
and to strike London it would be neces
sary TO rise in South America Mr..
Wise's aerial voyage may turn out
very unwise thing for those who 90 up
in that balloon" The staying up long
enough is merely question of gas and
provisions but should he succeed in
reaching the other shore the world will
have the satisfaction of knowing that he
went up higher, stayed up there longer
and came down safer and happier than
any other man on earth There are
many skepties who believe that Dir
Wise will not start soon on this aerial
voyage, but the Graphic people are in
earnest, be it wise or otherwise
