These incn are all sterling Democrats of the old school and the nomination of any one of them will undoubtedly be acceptable to the party.

Pursuant to notice a delegation of Democrats from the several townships, met at the Review office on last Saturday the Gth, to set the time for the holding of the county convention. There was quite a large gathering and an unusual amount of good feelingaud enthusiasm manifested. Swan Brookshier, of Clark township was called to the chair, and C. II.

WISE'S

BALLOON ASCENSION.-—

Having been caught in a storm, Prof Wise, the aeronaut, was unfortunate in his last balloon excursion. He started from St. Louis, in his ballloon Jupiter, designing to coinc down at Lafayette, lud. But the storm brought him down on the line of tho Tcrre Haute & Alton Rail Road.

He now proposes to make another trial, and announces that he will make an ascension from Lafayette on the 16th inst., in the Jupiter, with the intention of Landing at Philadelphia. If he succeeds, it will be the greatest balloon voyage of his life.

GARIBALDI TO GO TO THE APPENINES.

QUEBEC, Monday, Aug. 8.

It is reported that Count Walewski has submitted a plan for the confederation of Italy. It is to comprise seven States, and the Presidency is nominally to be given to the Pope, but in reality to the Kings of Sardinia and Nitpki, alternately. The strong places to be garrisoned by the Federal troops are Gaesta, Mantua and PlaMTIM The votes in the Federal Diet, aceording to this proposition, are to be divided as follows: Parma one Modena one the Pope two Sardinia three and Naples three.

GREAT BRITAIN.—In the House of Lords Lord Lyndhurst defended himself from the charges of Mr. Bright on account of the warning voice he raised, and asked if the admiralty were aware that the French were arming their fleets with rifled cannons.

The Duke of Somerset replied in the affirmative, and said that although England had improved cannon in progress of manufacture, it could not be ready for some time.

In the House of Commons Sir De Lacy Evans moved for the appointment of a commission to inquire in the national defense, and to report what improvements were possible.

It is understood that the government has assented to the substance of the resolution. The government would not assent to the motion, but was willing to the appointment of a committee to inquire what permanent fortifications were necessary tor the defense of the dock-yards and arsenals.

Sir De Lacy Evans' resolution was neg-atived.-x Nothiug of importance had transpired in regard to the conference at Zurich, nor is it known whether Sardinia would take a part.

A dispatch from Rome, however, says that the representatives of the Three Powers were expected to meet at the end of July.

It was vaguely rumored in Paris on the 25th that Napoleon would visit Loudon. The London Daily News believes that although the scheme of an Italian Confederation may not have been formally struck off in the programme, it is not insisted on by its author, and but little more will we hear of it.

The French fleet had sailed from Lizzoria, and it was reported that a portion of the French troops had bejrun to leave Italy.

Count Persigny had arrived in Paris from London. It is said that he took with him au announcement that England would give her adhesion to a Congress on condition of an immediate disarmament.

The Paris correspondent of the London Times is informed that the English Government has offered to send a representative to the Congress, provided that France disarms, and that th-j French Emperor agreed to do this on eonditiou that England did the same that Eug'.and consented on condition of a general disarmament by land and sea that France will begin the movement, aud that the English Government is very well satisfied with the conduct, of the French Emperor.

The Independence Beige gives a report that the proposition for a disarmament proceeded in the first instance from Napoleon.

It is ascertained that a military conven-

The Paris Monitcur ot the 20(1 contains the following: "It is endeavored in England to attribute to France the causes of the English national burdens, but the English are deceived, merely in order to further the national defense.

articles from thc Monitcur, says that France has done every thing to free England from thc nightmare of iuvasion, in order to restore her to calmness and repose. If unsuccessful, England can only blame herself for the fears which agitate her, and which, if prolougcd, would be an affront to the sincerely friendly feelings and ac tions of France.

The London Post's Paris correspondent says that there is thc same disposition as ever, in official quarters, to assure Eugland that thc Emperor and his advisers consider the Anglo-alliance now, as ever, necessary for the tranquility and prosperity of Europe.

Thc Paris correspondent of thc Times says that it was reported that- Count Walewski had drawn out a plan for thc conference and confederation of Italy.

THE LATEST.

LONDON, July 27.—M. De Ainbrios, a very enlightened man, has been named as the Sardinian Plenipotentiary to the conference at Zurich. Austria, however, refuses to meet any Sardinian representative but will leave it open to Sardinia to accede to the treaty after its conclusion by Austria and France.

The Duke of Tuscany has expressed his willingness to abdicate in favor of his son, who promises a constitution, but thc Tuscans object altogether to the dynasty.

It was reported that about two hundred thousand men will be discharged from the army on renewable furlough, the advantage being that the government will have them still at hand, while their cost will be directed to other purposes.

The wine accounts are unfavorable, the grapes being injured by the execssive heat. Prices tended upward.

The Paris Monitcur, the government organ, says that Denmark has ceded the Island of St. Thomas to the United States.

The Sardinian Lc Nord says that one of the first acts of the new Miuistry will be to put an end to the present dictatorship, and frame an Electoral Bill, applicable to Loinbardy. A dissolution will then take place in order to effect in the new Chambers a complete fusion of Piedmont and Loinbardy. The King will preside, and the Parliament sit in alternate years at Turin and Milan.-

The Turin journals say that the army, reinforced by recruitments in Loinbardy, is to be raised to 200,000 men.

Gen. Garibaldi had a confidential interview with General Marmoro, at Brescia, on the 15th ult. lie stated that he had 12,000 men, and his force continued to increase.

He expressed confidence in the King of Sardinia for not forsaking the Italiau cause.

A Milan letter in the London limes savs that Garibaldi is about to move to the Appcnincs. There will be a gathering of 50,000 volunteers in the Romanga, aud Garibaldi's corps added to that of Mezzocapo will form an army capable of securing the independence of Central Italy, at least against any Roman or Ncopolitan force.

It is rumored that the Duke of Modena proposed to arm 4,000 Austrian troops, to enable him to enter his State also, that a division of the French army is to enter Parma and Tuscany, and another corps entor the Roman Legation for the purpose of simply preserving order and allowing the free expression of public opinion.

The municipality of Florence has formally expressed the desire of annexation to an Italian Kingdom under Victor Emmanuel, or that Tuscany be governed by a Prince of the house of Savoy.

'•Of. WISE'S MIAI. VOYAGE FROM ST. LOUIS. The Lafayette (Ind.) Courier says.

Mr. John Wise, the eminent Amencau aeronaut, arrived here yesterday afternoon from Terre Haute. From the narrative of bis ascension from St. Louis, made with the view of reaching this city, which he has kindly fnnished us, it will be seen that the voyage was brought to an abrupt termination when about thirty miles from St. Louis, on account of a severe rain-storm, in which the balloon got involved, and from which its intrepid navigator found it impossible to extricate it. He landed near Edwardsville, Illinois, on the Terre Haute and Alton Railroad. Had it not have been for the circumstance of being caught in the nun, Mr. Wise thinks he woclu undoubtedly have landed at Lafayette as he proposed. He will make an ascension from Terre Haute on Saturday, and his grand aaccnsion from this city will probably take placc in a couple of weeks.

The following extract is from the closing part of Mr. Wise's account of his voyage in the Courier:

I would remark, that in order to sail balloons in rain, another concomitant to its paraphernalia becomes necessary. It must be provided with a light water shedding covering over its upper hemisphere. Such a covering, coming down a foot or two below cquador, would make the whole area within its circumference dry, aud thus provide a dry placc for the passengers, as well as it would avoid the expenditure of ballast occasioned otherwish by the absorption of rain in the network.

As we sailed in the lower current, and within five hundred feet of the earth, wc held distinct conversation with the people below, who seemed to enjoy it very much.

We started from Washington Square at eleven A. M., the place being granted us by Mayor Fillcy, who also furnished us a gentlemanly police corps to assist and preserve order and decorum during the preparations for the voyage. There was during the morning a drizzling symptom of rain, aud had the experiment not been purly a scientific ouc, wc should have postponed "it ou account of the weather.

As wc ascended, St. Louis presented a bold and huadsome curve into the river front, with its broad and busy levee, and its hundreds of steamboats moored in eschclon along the shore. The city has a characteristic commercial aspect. The various finished and unfinished public buildings, with a rather dingy hue, gives it the appearance of an old city, notwithstanding

This mads it too disagreeable- to remain in and under the rain, could we have sufficiently countervailed the dcpresing effects of the balloon by the weight of water thus encountered by the largo quantity of ballast we had aboard.

By tho time the Sons obtain control of the Island of Cuba, the Daughters confidently expect to subjugate "the Isle of Man."
