Another invention, which is occupying
the scietifc world of Paris, is the Gugliel-
mini steam-balloon. II the experiments
answer the inventors hopes this balloon
will be one of the wonders Of this age OF
wonders. The invention is based on eight
points: /. Ascension power. 2. Transla.
tive horizontal and diagonal power. 8.
Safety against accidents. 4. Direction from
one point to another given point. 5. The
material employed In the construction OF
aerial steamboats,. G. Perfectly aerial archi-
lecture. Z. The disposition OF the ascentive
power. S. The maneuyres on board and the
degree of temperature Of aerostat. The gas
employed is hydrogen, disposed in twelve
globes instead OF one. Once in the air, the
boat, which is oblong like ship, is moved
on by two steam-engines placed underneath
the keel. Thus it cuts the air like other
boats cut the sea. With an engine OF ff-
teen-horse power thirty metres are made in
second. The acting man@uvres consist
in passing the excess OF hydrogen in the
globes into others reserved expressly for
the guidance of the boat, and then repass-
ing them into their first globes, according
to the descent or ascent which may be re-
quired. No trial trip Of the new invention
has yet been made.

POLICE COURT, YESTERDAY.-George
Washington, coIored man employed by
stevedores to attend horses working OF
hoisting- machines, was up, charged with
violating the persons OF two little white
girls. Tbe offences proved to be Of some
what less magnitude than was indicated in
the warrant, but yetit was clear that ac-
cused had taken very gross liberties. The
girls. aged nine and eleven, were playing
in the stable lot, Twentieth between Frank
lin and Grace, about 5 ORG O'Clock Satur-
day evening, when Washington called them
into the feed-room. a companion Of the
two girls, seeing what the pan was doing,
cried out, and he desisted, having done his
victims no actual damage. :.
The Justice found accused guilty, and
sentenced him to nine months in the chain
gang. He at first indicated his purpose to
appeal to the Hastings Court, but, upon
consultation with his counsel (NTr. E. C.
Cabell), concluded not to do so.
Moses Mason (colored) was sent on to the
Hastings Court for improper association.
Stephen Tyler (colored), charged with be-
ing fugitive, was sent to Petersburg,
where there are numerous charges against
him.
Mamie Burwell (colored) was sent to jail
for thirty days for misbehayior on the Cap
itol Square.
Nelson Jackson (colored) was charged
with being a suspicious character. He was
found in back lot near the paper-mill at
O'Clock at night. He said he was "seeking
salvation for his SOUL" Discharged.

IMPROVING THE VIoLIN.-All musical in
struments worked with the bow, and espc-
cially the violin, produce certain acute,
hard, and disagreeable notes. In memoir
recently published by NJ. Dien a remedy is
announced. Hitherto the short part OF the
string above the bridge has not been sup
posed to influence the sonorousness OF the
principal part, but really it vibrates stimuli
taneously, though very weakly, with the
latter, and its vibrations cause the lnterfer-
question is due. NJ Diem has experiment.
ed by tuning these prolongations OF the
strings to the unison or octave Of the de.
fectiye note by applying small movable nuts
to the prolonged parts, which can be ad-
iusted as desired. The correction thus
made is said to be quite complete.

careful statement Of facts connected with

PARDoNED.-The Governor has pardoned
D. I. Dortch, who was in May, 1878. sem
fenced by the County Court of Brunswick
to six months Imprisonment and S1O0 fine
for unlawful shooting. The Governor says {:
"The jury recommend his pardon, in
which the person at whom he shot, The pro-
scouting attorney. and large number Of
citizens, unite. The physician Of the Jail
certities: Il have this day examined D. T..
Dortch, now confined in the Jail Of Bruins
wick county, and find him suffering from
disease Of the stomach, bowels, and liver,
and believe long confinement in Jail will
aggravate the disease, thereby seriously en-
dangering bis llfe.' He is therefore par
doned. But this pardon does not affect the
fine ;, ~
