Napoleon and the Balloon.

When Napoleon was young cadet
he went on one occasion to witness
the ascent of balloon in the Champs
de Mars. He entered, unperceived
the Enclosure which contained the bal
loon, which was then very nearly full
and about to ascend, and requested
the aeronaut to allow him to enter
the car. The request, however, was
refused, the reason given being that
the feelings of the poy might en-
barrass the aeronaut.
Though | am young, I fear neither
the powers of earth nor of the air."
Bonaparte is reported to have ex-
claimed
On being requested to retire, the
little cadet, enraged at the refusal,
drew his sword and, Sitting the bal
loon in several places, destroyed the
apparatus which had been construct
ed with infinite labor and ingenuity
Such was Napoleon's first and last
attempt to ascend in a balloon.
