AN ELECTRIC BALLOON. nj. Tissan.
der is preparing n balloon to he
driven by electricity. The machine
is to weigh cwt., and the secondary
batteries II cwt, representing about
five horse power. These will be car
ried by an elliptical balloon of a vol
ume Of 10000 cubic feet. The bal.
loon is to be 131 feet long, and its
diameter in the center GOT feet. The
balloon would have lifting power
Of three and half tons, and conse
quently would be able to support one
ton weight Of passengers, ballast, etc,
besides the batteries and machinery.
With the air calm, its speed would be
from twelve miles to fifteen miles per
hour, which of course, could be main
tanned for only few hours. nj.
Tissandier intends constructing such
balloon shortly and undertaking
voyages with it over and around Paris.
The problem of aerial navigation can
by no means be considered as solved
with this balloon. Even If the first
experiments should not give satisfac-
tory results, some advantage will be
gained by the general evidence they
will supply of the practicability OF
the idea.

NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE SUCCESS.

When an article of real merit is placed ON
the market, it il astonishing with what
rapidity il is introduced and taken hold Of
while its very name becomes household
word. The marvellous success of the New
England Baking Powder proves this.
When first brought to the notice, of
the public the market was over
crowded with different brands, and the
proprietors of the New England were dis
couraged by dealers aud attacked on every
side by manufacturers. But, confident in
the superiority OF their goods, and satisfied
there was plenty of room at the top where
they belong, and where they were deter
mined to be. they still pressed on, and grad
ually, as one family after another through
out the country gave this baking powder an
intelligent trial, its merits became more and
more known and appreciated, until now it
is more generally used on this coast than any
other brand. Not only are the sales in the
Pacific States very large and constantly in
crcasing, but orders are being received from
Salt Lake, Denver and Texas, and influential
parties in Chicago and other Eastern centers
have applied for the agency, and also for
terms to manufacture on royalty. The
proprietors, however. do not propose to let
their process out of their hands or out of
the State. The ingredients, rs well known,
are only the very highest grades of refined
cream of tartar and bi-carb-soda, but the
proportions and methods of combining the
same, so as TO insure strength, uniformity
and keeping properties, are peculiar to the
New England alone, and in these it has no
rival.

The Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany and its empire in the Northwest is
exciting a great deal of discussion.
Whether some of its enormous land
grant has been or should be forfeited or
not is the main question. Congressional
action has been invoked, and of course,
is being resisted. The terms of the grant
must be adhered to but, as it was gift,
1t is to be construed literally for the Gov
ernment If it has not been earned and is
forfeitablc the people have right to ex-
pect to see their representatives restore it
10 the public domain. The Interior De-
partment and the courts do not treat as
forfeited a grant not earned, but say that
ii is for Congress to declare the forfeit
ure. No private interests should be pow
erful enough to delay decision by Con-
grcss as TO the ownership of the vast ter
ritory claimed by the Northern Pacific
