Longest Balloon Voyage.

The longest balloon voyage as far
as we know was one undertaken in
1888, in which the distance travelled
saw more than twelve hundred miles.
Three voyagers on that occasion
made an ascent in France. with the
intention of crossing the Mediterra-
mean and landing in Algeria. The
wind, proving unfavorable, carried
them toward Corsica. When they
were near that island the balloon
descended toward the water, and for
q time THAR lives were in great
jeopardy. By throwing out all their
apparatus they succeeded in getting
the balloon to rise to height of be-
tween two thousand and three thou
sand feet, and, travelling on to Italy,
they safely descended in that country
at a little village near Brescia.-

are: First, marked Improvement within
the past month and considerable excess
over the business done year ago, partic-
ularly in the necessaries OF life. But sec

at present is on the whole considerably
less than In normal year, and In the
more important trades is apparently about
20 per cent smaller than in September,

In Wholesale trade and manufacture does

The Indian merchants have realized by hard experience the business em- barrassmeuts caused by the foolish monetary policy of the government and, like many others, see clearly that the Indian and the English govern ments alone cannot put an end to the present state Of affairs; nor can England long dictate the monetary policy of the world A Calcutta dispatch of Monday last reports a meeting held in that city of European resilepts, who resolved to urge upon tho government the necesai- ty of an agreement with other nations, and the adoption of some settled policy which shall have reference to interua- tional needs, and net to the wishes or past policy of England alone. These Indian merchants see clearly what many Of their English brethren are be- ginning to understand also. although their views do not seem to have yet reached the inner circles of the govern ment. No settlement of the monetary question can be permanent which IS aot international in its character and which does not consider justly the interests of the whole commercial world Mining and Engineer ing Journal.

An effort is to be made Co lave Con gress again suspend the provision of the mining law requiring assessment work on uupatouted mineral claims. There is reason for this concession to the owners of silver claims, but it does not apply to gold and some other min erals winch have suffered no deprecia- ton in value, but if Congress re-enacts the law of 1893, the suspension will be general on all mineral claims, The suspension of assessment work is not wholly hcnefcial. us in many localities it cuts of considerable revenue de- rived from nonresident claim owners,
 The Mining and Scientific Press says it is not at all unlikely that tho whole matter of assessment work on uupat- ented claims may be opened II, and Q serious effort made Co abolish the re- quiroment altogether IL is fact well known, says the Press, that the law is more houored in it's breach than in its observance, and that, in great many instances, it wholly fails to carry out the purposes for which it was enacted, viz the enforced development of min. ing properties and the prevention of consolidation in the hands of one per son the possession of many Idle claims, It has, indeed, proved factor in ac- complishiug tho latter design, to n greater CT less extent, but it is the pretty general conviction of mining men that some other statute might be more effective and satisfactory both to the government and to the miner who is not speculator It is believed by many that the mining laws of Mexico, requiring an annual rental, are an i'm proyement over those of the United States. The rental could be small say s25 or S50-and the proceeds in each district comprise a fund which might be used for the benefit of the district.

The Sanitary Commission returned from it's visit of finspection to Tempe and Mesa City last evening. At the latter place they condemned nine head of horses ana established quarantine station where ail diseased horses will be sent.
 Arrangements have been made by the purchase of several horses and burros, which will be einnoculated from the diseased horses, to demonstrate to the owners the deadliness of the dis. ease.
 This afternoon the commission went to Tempe to inspect two carloads of horses which are to be shipped this evening and they expect to leave for home this evening.
 While at Mesa City yesterday a couple of mon rode up to the commits sion and told them of a drove of horses which they thought were infected.
