some new details regarding the inven-
ton have since appeared in the Paris
journals. We have already described
the shape and Dimensions of the balloon:
but there are novelties connected with
It's construction which remain TO be men
TONED. The great difficulty in con
structng balloon capable of Offering
sulhcleut resistance to the air has always
bsen the difficulty of keeping the sur
face uniformly rigid; for, with ordinary
Daileons, so soon as any gas is allowed
10 escape, Just so soon does the balloon
collapse little, show wrinkles in
its envelope, aud offer excellent
expressions for a breeze to take adj
vantage OF. Capts. Renard aud Krebs
have, however, given their balloon a
double envelope--th inner enyeloDe
only being filled with hydrogen gas,
aud the space between the two envel-
opes filed with common air-tightly
clown up, so that the surface is kept
rigid as that of an inflated rubber pill
| low. Now whenever it becomes nee
essary in the course OF manmvring TO
lose more or less gas, so that tho inner
envelope shrlnks, the equilibrium OF
tiSNitN u oliiL lndluIdlHct DY PUMPING
An equivalent amount of air between
the inner and the outer envelope. This
is done without illiculty, by simple
mechanical appliance,
! At the rear of the basket are two i'm.
mense palette-shaped oars, which mod
crate and regulate descent. The screw
OF the motor is seven meters in diameter
and makes iortysiX revolutions u min
ute. Tho engine is dynamo-electrical
machine Of eight-horse power, and ex.
| traordlnary lightness. This is the oniv
part of the apparatus still unexplained
| tho generator and its machinery being
| inventions Of the aeornauts, who
refuse to make their discovery
| public. However, the auknowl-
edge the electrical mechanism is
| yet imperfect, and it seems to nave two
| great defects: The first is it's costliness.
| The second is that the action of the ma
chine is of too short duration to allow
of long trips being made. The only
| thing left to invent for aerial naviga.
| ton, therefore, seems TO be something
which our own Edison might well sup
ply "a dynamo electrical engine Of light
weight and large power, capable Of
| operating for at least six or seven DAYS
! time. Once the machinery be perfected
one can cross the Atlantic by balloon
