ferocious, but the Supervisor hadn't trained
in the Democratic camp for nothing, and was
well educated in the ways that are dark. His
experience in ballot-box stuffing suggested
the brilliant idea of stuffing his hat down the

to be exciting. When the polls closed it was
found that the Supervisor had carried the

If the Graphic balloon went up like rock

Whether Prof. Donaldson and his compan-
ions felt deep interest in the Capital contest
between Hartford and New Haven, and so
were anxious to get down in time to vote, is
not known; but it is certain they sought Con-
necticut soil with astonishing alacrity as soon
as ever an opportunity offered. Sweet men,
cries OF his boyhood days apparently flooded
the mind of one of the eronauts, for he fran
tically clutched at the laden boughs of an ap-
pie tree as he swept over it, and stopped to
see if the apples were sour. That vast null
titude of spectators so graphically watching
on the west coast of Ireland, and craning
their necks in momentary expectation of see
ings the big gas bag will, we fear. ''grow
a-weary' before the wished for spectacle
greets their strained optics. Whatever may
be the factssin regard to the much talked of
"easterly current" it must be acknowledged
that it doesn't cotton to balloons as at present
constructed; and to fully test Wise's theory
we must wait for that sheet-iron globe which
a French scientist declares is to be the air ship
of the future.

DESCENT OF THE GRAPHIC BALLooNIsTs.
The aerounants who went up from Brooklyn,
N. Y, on Monday in the Graphic balloon en-
countered the rain storm while over Litchfeld
county, CT, and were for long time in great
peril, but finally succeeded in landing without
any serious injury by jumping from the car. A
dispatch to the Boston Herald gives the follow
ing account of the descent:
"TEe aeronauts had pleasant time of it up
to about noon, when they got into the stormy
area of Lltchfield county. After passing over
a mountain they arrived at a valley, where all
motion of the balloon was suspended, and
they were for time shrouded in a dense
cloud of mist and pouring rain, the balloon
every now and then being caught and shaken
by violent gusts of wind The adventures
were uncertain what to do. At first they
thought they would wait until the balloon de-
scended sufficiently and then cut all the ropes
and drop the boat letting the bag escape. The
storm, however, soon increased with such vio-
lence that this was given up as impracticable,
and it was decided to open the valve; but at
this moment Il Is p. NJ the balloon was
struck by tremendous squall of wind and rain
and was driven to an immense height above
the valley and then down again to the earth
with frIghtful velocity, spinning over the tops
Of the trees, across small brook and towards
bank at the bottom of the mountain. Don
aldson then gave the order 10 prepare to jump,
and he and Ford scrambled to the side of the
boat, and when the balloon had reached within
thirty feet of tina earth sprang simultaneously
They were very much strained, but were other
wise unframed. Lunt was not quick enough
and the balloon shot into the air, carrying him
cinging to the ropes He was speedily in the
storm clond again, and being whirled about in
the most alarming manner The bag was shak-
en- about above him with awful force and he
could see nothing, so thick was the cloud. He
seized the valve Cord and attempted to open it,
but could not, as it was entangled with the
neck of the balloon. suddenly her tops APP
peared above the fog, and in an instant the
balloon was whirling through the branches.
Lunt climbed to place above the concentrat-
ing ring, and as the balloon rushed into a
thicket, he swung himself out and dropped.
He managed to catch hold of the topmost limb
of tall tree, but the boat scraped over his
hands, forcing him to let go, and he fell
through the branches to the ground, fortunate
ly unhurt. A DR.. Adams-droye him to Cana
an, where Donaldson and Ford soon afterward
arrived in wagon belonging to Mr.. Charles
Lewis of North Canaan. on whose farm they
landed. The balloon was captured in sadly

RAILWAY management in England would
seem to have become hopeless. For the last
two months the papers have harped on the i'm
becility of railway directors and managers; and
there has been an exceptionally large number
of railway accidents of late. The brakes are
insufficient, the driver and the guard at the
rear have no effective means of comm unication
with each other, and things have come to the
pass that Accidental Insurance Companies can
not, we should think, prove paying specula-
tons. The system is thus characterized by the
Pail Mall Gazette "a brake power miserably
feeble in itself is placed under the control of
the particular official who has the least posi-
BILE chance of knowing when it should be ap-
Piled 1t is then left to the only official who
possesses this knowledge to communicate with
the former when an occasion arises for its in
Simultaneous use. The results are of course
much the same as though the conductor of an
omnibus were to have the sole power of stop
ping the vehicle, and to stop it only on being
informed by peculiar whistle from the driver
that there was somebody under the wheels"

THE WISCONSIN CAMPAIGN.-Gov. Wash
burn opened the Wisconsin campaign in
speech at Fon du Lac last week to large ant
dience, in Which he treated the pending is
sues in very candid and able manner. In con-
nection with the question of cheap transporta-
ton, he said:
The present agitation in the country means
that the people comprehend the situation and
see their danger. They are determined that no
corporation and no man shall be above the law;
that laws shall not be made or unmade at the
dictaton of this corporation or that. They are
going to watch their public servants. Hereto
fore too many legislators in some of the States
We're just as much bought and sold as the bull
locks in the shambles. While the people have
nobody to lobby for them, the railway lobbyist
is everywhere. He invades the halls of . leg
islation. he breaks over the rules, he is seen on
the floor of the House or Senate, squat like
toad at the ear of this member or that, implor-
ing one or threatening the other This is no
fancy sketch, and to see it you need only to
have been attendant on the sittings of our Leg
isllture in years past. This thing should end.
You are no enemy of railways, but you are de-
termined that they shall stick to their legiti
mate duties, and no longer dictate legislation or
who shall be elected to office.
He opposed the raising of the national rev.
enue by direct taxation, as the constitution
provides that in such cases it must be levied &C
cording to population, which would work un-
favOrably upon the west; advocated wise pro-
lection policy; strongly denounced the resolu-
ton of the Democratic convention opposing
restrictions upon the liquor traffic, and took de-
cided and unequivocal views on the railroad
question. He corrected Senator Carpenter who
has publicly stated that he Gov. Washburn)
voted for the increase of the salary of members
of Congress in 1866 by stating that he was not
member of Congress at that time.
