GRIMLEY'S ATTEMPT,

In June, 1879. Professor Grimley
and Herald correspondent started on
a balloon voyage from Montreal for
New York in the air-ship Canada, but
they had fearful experience, and came
near losing their lives. After ascend
ing for the first few hundred feet it was
found that the trip could not be made
on account of the poor quality of the gas
used. The wheels for steering and the
rudder of the aerial car worked splen-
didly, and, although they had drifted
away from the point of starting, a few
turns Of the crank brought the balloon
to the same spot again. The yoyageurs
started at eighteen minutes to s p. NJ,
and landed in safety at 10 2. NJ. in the
village Of st. Jules, forty-tive miles dis
tant from Montreal.
THE BALLOON FALLACY.
In September, 1878, Professor @. b.
Ritchell's air-ship was sent up ct Hart
ford, Conn. II consisted Of balloon
above and a revolving vertical screw,
worked by hand-power beneath, for
lifting purposes, and horizontal screw
for steering. II illustrated the balloon
fallacy to nicely. What it gained from
the balloon in buoyancy it lost in the
huge surface exposed to the wind. The
balloon was made to balance exactly at
