Navarro, who, with inexplicable fool.
hardness, had volunteered 10 perform

suspended from a Mongolfbre balloon
named the Vidouvillaise. Rejecting

the balloon. At about o'clock the
Vidouvillaise was let loose from its
moorings and rose msjestically in the
air. Navarro, hanging on TO the trap
eze, appeared quite confident and re.
peatedly saluted the spectators. When,
however, the balloon had reached =
height Of nearly 1000 yards, the crowd
was horrified 20 see him suddenly let
go the bar and fall. The tragic descent
was watched in bresthless excitement.
At last the body reached the ground,
striking with such force that il made
hole in the earth two feet deep, and re.
bounded four yards. 1t was crushed

from its human ballast. shot up with
lightning speed and soon disappeared

THE BATTLE OF THE BALLoTs.-It is
said to be great safeguard to our political
institutions for the populace to assemble
once in four years and express their opin-
ion with paper ballots as to who shall be
their chief magistrate for four years to
come. Perhaps that is so. At least we
shall not attempt to refute it at present,
but shall merely express our joy that this
important event is not of more frequent
occurrence.
We have just survived one Of those i'm
portant occasions. It's elimination was
reached on Tueeday, though for long
period previous extensive preparations
were made for its advent. Despite the
representations of that oracular indivd-
ual who always endeavors TO bring a rain
or snow on election day, the sun rose upon
II cloudcss armament, it moved on to the
zenith without hiding its face and retired
behind the western hills with nothing but
the blue ether intervening between Mother
earth and it.
But before the King of Day was visible,
and while yet the frost lay white upon
hundred roofs, man arose to wake the
echoes of the morn. Men met and shook
hands, smiled persuasively, produced from
their pockets bits of folded paper, and hied
themselves to their respective voting places.
Human nature seemed to undergo a trans
formation. Suddenly man loved his fell
low man most cordially. Those who never
spoke before paused 10 greet each other
DER and DER. This loving link was un-
usually strong between Republicans and
the dusky sons of Africa. They met and
tenderly embraced, and not one, we are
told, was allowed to escape the loving tolls.
Well, these important bits of paper
these potent bullets of civilized warfare
were placed in the polls from early morn
till dewy eve; and if in all parts of the
country men took advantage Of this grand
prerogative to the extent that character
lied the inhabitants of this section, II was
the most wonderful battle OF the ballots
the world has ever seen. The contending
forces on either side were larger, the i'm
pulse which drew them forth was stronger
than ever before. Yet never, if we are 10
believe the reports, was battle fought
more peacefully. The bullets fell silently,
each shot had its effect, yet not drop of
blood was shed. 1t was the crowning
triumph of Democratic principles it was
tho greatest wonder of the Nineteenth
century; it was worthy the Millennium.
The result is given in another portion of
this weeks DEMOCRAT.
Man is ft subject for study when he
advances 10 participate in this privilege
which is accorded TO him but once in four
years. He feels then, as at no other time,
that he is the equal of all the earth He
casts his ballot with naughty conscious.
ness of its power. In doing so the hum.
blest can participate with the highest in
the exalted duty of controlling the events
Of the earth. Let the result be what il
may we should highly prize election day.

EPIzoOTIc, AND Two REMEDIES FOR 1T.
-Supt. S. s. Blair gives the following cure
for epizootic TO the Tyrone Herald.
ITO those who have horses attacked with
epizootic, quinsy or sore throat, permit me
TO say that in my experience with Ill
horses and mules in 1872, when the disease
spread over the country with great rapid
ity, used nothing but extract of ammonia
and sweet oil in the following proportions ::
One part extract of ammonia and two
parts of sweet oil, rubbed in on the outside
of the throat and glands of the throat and
neck every two or three hours until blis-
tered freely, feeding them on bran mash
until they recovered This treatment was
entirely successful. As the disease is very
prostrating, do not work the animals IL
possible to avoid it, Keep your stables
clean and we'll ventilated, and whitewash
them frequently. Exposure of the animals
and hard work may bring on lung fever. !"
An old veterinary surgeon Of the army
sends the New York Times the following
'simple and safe cure" for this disease:
Take one pound of gum assafetids, mix
1t with one gallon of boiling water, stir the
mixture constantly until the assafetida is
dissolved, let the mixture cool, strain and
give one half pint every three hours. This
will relieve the horse within twelve hours
and give him a good appetite"
The army cure for the "epizooty" was a
teaspoonful Of chloride of potash in a pail
full Of water three times day.
