First Balloon Ascension in the United
States.

The first ballO ascension attempted
in the United States was made here in
Baltimore in 1884 by a citizen of the
town, Peter Carnes. The ascension was
made from Howard Park" which then
extended from Center street to the Falls,
and from Clavert to the Hookstown
road, the Belvidere Mansion House be-
ing the center Of the property. and the
hill on which the monument stands
crowned, as far as the Mansion, with
forest trees of noble growth. This as
censiOn was made in the very infancy of
@ronauts. only Messrs. Robert and Chas.
Montgolner and Pilatie de Roster hav-
ing made trials of it. The balloon was
toy. seized upon as plaything of the
idle and curious. 1t was as yet thought
to be beneath the dignity of the Royal
Society of England to notice it. Sir
Joseph Banks and Benjamin Franklin,
however. fancied they saw In the bal
loon the infancy of a new giant. We
have not many particulars of Mr.Carnes'
first balloon. He used heated air to in
date his balloon, and be was so much en-
cOuragd BY his success here in Balti-
more that he went to Philadelphia to
make grand ascension on the 4th of
July. It was year Of jubilee and pa
triotic celebration every where through
out the land. The definite treaty of
peace with England had been ratified by
Congress on January IA, and proclaimed
January %, l7s4. The talents of Charles
Wilson Peale were employed to get up
triumphal arch and illumination in COM
memoration of the event. The arch and
fireworks were renewed in May, when
the Sons of Tammany had their ami
versary, and marched in procession to
salute the Mansion House on Lemon
Hill. where General Washington was
dining with the patriotic financier, Rob
ert Morris.-BaItinOre.

VIII CarIeton-and His Poems.

"Under what circumstances was your
poem, Over the Hills to the Poor
Honse,' written.
While at school l was interested IN
visiting the alInshouse and chatting
with the pAupers. Among the acquain-
tances | made there were two very
worthy people whose children had aban-
doned them IN their old age. The faith
er told me his story. The details were
not, Of Course, the same as related in
the poem, but in them was the idea af-
terward elaborated"
"Did it not have a strong moral ef-
feet ?"
ut did; it was published in the Harp
er's Weekly at the time, with lllustra-
tions. In two months a friend wrote
me that the verses had produced on him
such an effect that he Immediately sent
check for s1GO to his parents, whom
he thought had been too much neglect
ed. l have heard of cases where people
have been taken out Of the poorhouse
by penitent children. In this connec-
tion might instance the case Of an old
man who died pauper at Cleveland.
When his satchel was opened and its
meager contents examined copy of the
poem was found carefully wrapped up.
From these and numerous other affect
ing incidents, believe that the poem
has done some good: Betsy and l are
Out has come back to me at numerous
times. When stopping at a hotel in

up to me, and, in very demonstrative
manner, told me that those verses were
the means of reuniting himself and his
wife" e"-Denver Tribune.

Presidential tickets in the field in 1884,

fail to receive the Democratic nomina-

Workingmen's ticket.

The new standard railroad time went
into effect in the Eastern States Monday
of last week, and is expected to be be-
gun by the Pennsylvania Company to-
day. The time adopted In the East is
that of the 18th meridian, which passes
little east of Philadelphia. 1t is ex-
pected that standard time will shortly
become universal. At present in the
United States there are more than fifty
kinds of time IN use, which causes con-
fusion among the travelling public, who
are not able to follow the variations
from one section Of the country to an
other. The 10th meridian will be the
standard, and will govern the country
including Ohio, Kansas and Manitoba.
The time will one hour slower than
Eastern time, and nine minutes slower
than Chicago time. The 105th meridian
will be the standard for the Rocky
Mountain region, and the 120th for the
Pacific Coast.

WORK on the Hudson River tunnel is
suspended on both sides of the river, ex-
cept that small force of men is keeping
the water out of the tunnel on the Jer-
sey side. About two thousand feet of
the five thousand feet of tunneling have
been completed. Negotiations are pend
ing to secure the capital to go on.
