Mr.. Barnum's Hippodrome and
himself have been making Chicago
lively recently, and the system of
balloon advertising, with which Gin
oinnatians are familiar, has been
carried on. At last it seems tn re
is an event that will give MIR. Bars
mum more advertising than he will
care for.
Donaldson, the professional aero
naut, and Grimwood, the reporter
on the Chicago Journal, made an
ascension on Thursday last. It is
said the balloon was patched, and
not well patched, and that it was
filed with a poor quality of gas.
The balloon, however, had suff-
cient buoyancy to carry the aero.
naut and the reporter to a consid-
cradle hight, and bear them swiftly
over the lake. They were last seen
from a schooner two hours after
starting. and were distant from
Chicago thirty miles, the basket
occasionally touching the water
The schooner attempted to draw
near, but the balloon shot up sud-
denly and disappeared.
In the direction in which the bal
loon was moving the distance to a
landing place was at least two hun
dred miles. Within few hours
there was storm that was SO VIC
lent that it is not likely the balloon
could have survived it. Nothing
has been beard of the adventures,
and there is very little doubt that
they were drowned in the lake.
There is a chance that they may
have fallen in the wilderness, and
can make their way out, but it is q
slender chance.-Cin. Com.

A Useful Lesson.

The political defeat which our
party suffered last fall has had at
least one good effect-it has united
Republicans on a common basis
The election of 1872 left the impress
sion that our party was strong
enough to divide its strength and
yet win. The result, in a number
of strong Republican districts,
where, through this division, Dem-
ocrats were elected, has taught us 8
lesson. This fall we shall present
a solid front to the enemy. FACE
tions will unite on good men, and
all party differences will end with
the work of the convention. Our
opponents place great reliance on
the Independent temperance move
ment, but in this we believe they
will fail. Republicans, favorable to
temperance, will not allow them
selves to be used as tools to destroy
party that has done so much in
the line of substantial reform
They know that Che fight is between
the Republican party and the Dem
ocracy, and that the triumph of the
latter will be followed by general
throwing open of the food gates of
intemperance. A few over Jealous
voters will support a temperance
ticket, but the practical temperance
advocate will not throw his vote
away, when a great national ques-
ton is at stake. The triumph of
the Republican, party will give
moral impetus to the temperance
cause. Its defeat would destroy
the good which the cause has al
ready accomplished
