THE PALLADIUM.
WEDNESDAY. MARCH "a. 1875.



The New York World says that
although Mr.. Donaldson, the
aeronaut. did not succeed in reach
ing Europe last year by the aid of
the easterly current, his limited
success has induced Mr.. Barnum to
make further engagement with
him for the summer months of
1875 A few days ago an agreement
was entered into by which Mr..
Donaldson agrees to devote his en-
tire services to the furtherance of
aeronautic travelling during the
next eight months, for which he is
to receive the sum of $40, 900, Mr.
Barnum further agreeing to pay all
expenses attending the experiment
During the last summer Donaldson
made large number of successful
ascensions, during which hundreds
OF careful observations were made,
none OF the results OF which have as
yet been made public. It is con
sidered proved, first, that it is
possible to land q balloon success
fully 1T any point named and to
reasccnd without material loss of
ascending power; and, second, that
fixed law will enable the voyager
to leave any spot and return to the
same at pleasure. During tho past
winter Mr.. Donaldson has been en-
gagged in arranging compactly the
results of his work during his many
years experience, and possesses
therein . more complete aerial chart
than was ever before complied.
Extensive preparations have been
made for carrying on q successful
summer campaign during the com
ing months, to absolutely determine
the existence of an easterly current
If these experiments continue to
develop Mr.. Donaldsons theory,
there is little doubt that by Octo
Der of this year he and a selected
company will have trial at the AT
lantic. He is now at work upon
six balloons of various sizes, capa
bic of carrying from one to twelve
people. In these ascensions will
constantly be made in all weathers
and at every available point The
largest balloon will hold 10000
cubic feet of gas, being about the

The Democrats of the South do
not like the colored man in the alb
stract, but it is astonishing what an
intense love they can work up for
him in the concrete, when they can
use him to their purposes. Thus, for
instance, . colored State Senator in
Mississippi recently voted against a
Metropolitan Police bill before the
Legislature, and the snowy skinned
nabobs of Vicksburg dubbed to-
gether and bought him a gold
headed cane as a slight testimonial
of their esteem.

"Mr. Loring:
DEAR SIR-Here are a few words
touching the capture of the gun you
spoke Of the other day.
Hancock and Adams were staying
at Lexington with Rev. Jonas Clark.
the minister, and eminent patriot. In
the afternoon of April Is, several
British subordinate officers we're seen
riding up the main road in the town.
This excited the suspicious of men
who knew them to be British soldiers,
although they were disguised. In the
night intelligence was brought to
Messrs. Hancock and Adams that
British expedition was on foot des.
tined for Lexington and Concord to
get possession Of their persons, it was
supposed, and to destroy the military
stores at Concord. They gave the
alarm to the proper persons. whom
Captain Parker haI selected for that
work, and he sent men through the
town to give notice for assembling the
militia. The church bell was also
rung.
Captain Parker lived about two
and one half or three miles from the
meeting house. He had been there
late in the evening, and conferred
with Hancock and Adams, and made
arrangements in case it was necessa-
~ to call out the soldiers. He went
to bed late that night, April IS, and
ill. About 2 o'clock he was called up
by the men referred to above and went
to the meeting house (the common is
Just behind it, He formed his COM
pany a little after daybreak. About
one hundred and twenty men answer
ed to their names, armed and equip
ped. But as the intelligence was not
quite certain, he sent out scouts to
obtain information of the advance of
the enemy and dismissed the soldiers,
telling them to be within call and as
semble again at beat of drum. They
dispersed. Not long after one of his
scouts returned, and told him the
British were near at hand.
He ordered the drum beat in front
of the tavern close by the common.
Seventy men appeared, were formed
into four platoons, and marched on to
the common. His nephew, Jonathan
Harrington, the last survivor of the
battle. then a lad of sixteen, played
the fife, which, with a drum, formed
the only music. He formed them in
a single line, then wheeled the first
and fourth platoons at right angles,
stepped in front and ordered every
man to load his piece with powder and
ball.. When this was done he said.
Don't fire unless fred upon. But if
they want to have war. let it begin
here" He then wheeled hack the
two wings into . continuous line, and
stood a little in front of the end of the
right wing Soon the British came
