‘ A MANAGEABLE BALLOON. Test of an Aerial Machine Which Is Provided with Propelling Apparatus - and a Rudder—-A Satisfactory Voyage Over Lower Canada. THE trial of Cowan & Page’s aerial steering apparatus in the voyage of the monster balloon Canada last evening was practically a triumph. The steering apparatus consists of two paddlewheels, turned b&f ‘means of a crank, and can be turned at will in any direction'so as to propel the balloon wherever the balloonist desires, providing the wind is light. The paddles act in precisely the same way as an oar, the machinery being so constructed that each paddle, after it has taken the stroke or - propelling motion, feathers, thus presenting no opposition to the wind until the upper half-circle of the revolution has been described. ;

With a view of effecting a good ascent yesterday, the Montreal Gas Company had made a light gas especially for the purpose. At 5:45 p. m. Professor Grimley, the inventor of the apparatus, Messrs. R. W. Cowan and Charles Page, your correspondent, and. two other reporters entered the car with fifteen bags of ballast, and started on their voyage, heartily cheered by the thousands assembled in the Shamrock and Lacrosse grounds in Montreal. The balloon rose gracefully, and in three minutes was 1,500 feet from the surface, and sailing at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour. in an easterly direction. The beautiful City of Montreal seemed to pass under us like a dissolving view. The cheers of the populace, who were out en masse, were soon lulled in the distance, and, as one looked around over a vista of - thirty ‘miles, the features of the fine country spread out beneath us were very plainly marked. In the far west the sun was shining with all the brilliancy of the tropics, and the Ottawa River and its tributaries glistened like silver. The sun shone full ‘upon- the balloon, and raised the thermometer to eighty-five degrees, and there it was stationary for full thirty minutes, during which period the balloon slowly emitted about eight hundred feet of gas. In the southwest and directly under our feet, every rock and shoal in the St. Lawrence was plainly visible. Mount Royal, to*the north, seemed only slightly raised above the city; every feature in its uneven and heavily-wooded slopes was plainly marked. Still farther, the River Jesus and the back river tributaries of the Ottawa glistened like silver sheen as they plowed along their rocky bed to join the St. Lawrence at De Lisle, some eighteen miles below the city. The course of the St. Lawrence from above Beauharnois, on Lake St Louis, to Lavaltrie, a distance of thirty miles either way, with the many villages smiling on its banks dotting the surrounding eountry, were as plainly in view as though laid out on a map. Our attention was diverted from the scene by the sharp, jolly voice of the Professor, and the request of Mr. Cowan to proceed with the object for which the a#scension was made. Mr. Page thereupon took his position at the crank, and, assisted by the reporters, changed tbe direction of the pad-dle-wheels, and turned' them at the will of Mr. Cowan, another reporter having charge of the rudder, which had been rigged astern. 'The order was given to descend. Round went the paddles, and down glided the balloon, falling at the rate of sixteen hundred feet to the minute. The crank was then reversed, and, under a like effort on the part of the human motors, the balloon rose twelve hundred feet to the minute, thus registering the highest altitude of the trip—three thousand seven hundred feet. From this height the outline of the Island of Montreal was plainly distinguished, as also the course of the St. Lawrence, the Richelieu, and the Yamaska and the St. ‘Jude Rivers, and other smaller streams.

At this point one of the reporters expressed a desire to descend, and if }}))ossible return home by rail. The rofessor thought it possible to discharge the passenger and afterward continue the journey. Accordingly we lowered the balloon. As we descended to within four hundred feet of the earth a change of wind altered our course to the -eastward, and we bowled along over farm after farm at thirty miles an hour. Before the course of -the balloon was sufficiently checked to admit of any further descent a forest loomed up, extending as far as the eye could reach, and of ten to twenty miles in width. .To steer clear of this forest and drop in the first clearing practicable afforded a good opportunity for thoroughly testing the paddles. The rudder was put hard aport, and the paddles were -worked effectively by three men, and the forest was cleared.

At this time we were: traveling at the rate of twenty-five miles an hotr. As we failed to strike anything larger than a hamlet, we continued on with~out stopping, testing the efficiency of the paddles-in other directions, and the experiments we thus made proved the usefulness of the invention. , ° After we left St. Hilaire behind we successively passed the picturesque villages of St. Madeleine, La Presentation and St. Jude, where Grimley ‘landed on the 218 t of June, and then we sailed on over St. Louis to St. Aime, where a favorable opportunity to land presented itseli. The balloon was lowered to within less than one hundred feet of the ground, and the anchor was thrown out. The wind, which had lulled to nfteen: miles an hour during our progress through the openin%, suddenly increased to vwentyfive miles an hour, and the anchor would not hold in the sandy ground, but. cut through trees and ﬁ;rough fences and all things else it e¢ame in ‘contact with. = To make matters worse for those who. wished to doscend, a ' number of only partially-cleared farms hove in 'si%ll_xt, and, as the anchor could not hold in the soil, it was ‘deemed necessary to collapse the balloon by means of the rip-line, a cord sewn u%:ard for some distan¢e on her inside, below the erown, from which it “hangs down and passes through the funnel. As the monster descended, the Professor, with his full weight bearing upon the escape-valve, ordered everyone to hold on tight. No sooner . wad the order obeyed than the balloon - swooped to the ground, and the sharp

bow -of the car struck heavily in a field, makinf us all stagger, and mixing up legs and bodies generally. The balloon again rose, ‘and, barely cleé;ri% a fence, dropped ‘in the next field. ow was the time for the rip-line. As the balloon again careened to rise, the Professor pulled the line. The balloon was heard to slit, the car stood almost motionless in the face of a brisk breeze, and in little less than seven minutes the balloon was spread flat on the grass. Time, 8:20 p. m. . | The balloon carried on this trip 2,350 pounds, distributed as follows: Ballast, 400; balloon and netting, 650; car, 400; six persons and fixings, 900. There were 1650 pounds of ballast to spare on landing. The balloon is 70,000 feet in capacity, and is the largest in America. A number of gentlemen from Brooklyn have examined the ihvention with a view to having the experiments made in New York.—St. Hyacinthe (Can.) Cor. N. Y. Sun. : :

FACTS AND FIGURES. AN exploration ‘of Great Salt- Lake ‘shows that its greatest depth is thirtysix feet. ' e THE State of Georgia owes $10,344,500, and has $870,222 cash cn hand in the treasury. i : ; THE American Bible Society has distributed 36,226 copies of the Scriptures in Texas. : v OVER 40,000 pounds of glvcerine are used annually in the United States for mixing with beer. e THE day after the recent torrado in New England a Boston firm sold 16,000 new panes of glass. THE censns of 1880 promises to be the most perfect compendium of popular statistics ever issued. : - GREAT Britain produces three times as much iron and nearly three times as much codl as the United States. ACCORDING to recent returns it appears that there are 199,267 houses in Tokio. Calculating an average of five persons to each house, this would make the population of the Japanese capital 996,335. I~ spite of the reduction in the tobacco tax, the receipts of internal revenue for the year just closed amounted to $113,918,465, being $2,820,780 in ex-. cess of collections for the preceding fiscal year. \{ * - THE importation of American leather into Europe has increased over one hundred per cent. since 1873. In that year Europe received 659,911 hides, and to judgé by the exports from the United States thus far this year it will receive at the close over 1,500,000.

OFFICIAL statistics just published show the proportion of soldiers in the German Army who have never had any schooling. Among the troops from Wurtemburg there is not one. Out of a corps of about 7,000 from Baden there were 55, and out of a similar corps from Saxony only 25. The largest percentage was found in the Second Pruissian Corps, where out of about 8,000 men 710 had never attended school. The average percentage of the whole army is not over 2 to 3 per cent. o

THE Swiss Government has published the emigration statistics for'lB7B, from which it appears that the number of. emigrants, though thirty-four per cent. more numerous than in 1877, showed a decrease of thirty-six per cent. upon the average of the last ten years, the total for 1878 having been 2,602, as compared to 3,5616. Of the 2,602 emigrants 1,615 were men, 505 women and 482 children under sixteen years of age, and 2,210, or eighty-five per cent. of them, went to North America. : IN Belgravia Richard A. Proctor shows that while it is theoretically possible to construct a chess-playing automaton, it is practically impossible because the machine would necessarily be so enormous and complicated. There would scarcely be room on the earth for it, and it could not be operated. The number of different combinations that can be formed on a chess-board is .approximately represented as 100,000,1000, 000,000,060,000,000,000,000,000, and if a workman could make and drill 1,200 holes an hour it would, to drill the requisite number of holes in a metal plate, for one automatic chessboard, require all the ‘present inhabit.ants of the earth 100,000,000,000,000,000 years. :

THE following is a summary of the imports and exports of France for the first six months of she present year: Imports—Food, 822,853,000 francs; raw materials, 1,091,535,000 francs; manufactures, 212,334,000 francs; miscellaneous, 105,746,000 francs. Exports— Manufactures, 830,038,000 francs;‘ raw materials and food, 619,462,000 francs; miscellaneous, 80,994,000 L};f.ncs. The total value of imports amounts to 2,332,468,000 francs, and of exports to 1,5630,494,000 francs, so that the difference between them is 701,000,000 francs; whereas during the corres¥onaing months of last year it was only 433,000,000 francs. .This is due to the increased imports of food, the other items showing little difference from last year’s return. The increaseunder food on the value imported last year amounts to 271,000,000 francs.

—Creole Mary’s Pudding Sauce.— “Mrs. M. W. M.’ sends from Loudon County, Tenn., the following method of making a sauce, which she says is u great improvement upon the ordina¥y ¢ hard sauce’’ of butter and sugar only. A teacup of sugar and half that quantity of butter are beaten and creamed together. The white and yelk of one egg are well beaten separately, and stirred into the butter and sugar; season with nutmeg. L :

—At seven o'clock in the morning two duelists, who are to fight to the death at a place in the suéutbs, meet at the ticket office of the railroad station, ‘‘Gimme a return ticket asusual,” says the first duclist to the clerk in a terrible tone and with'a ferocious twist of his moustache. - ¢“I—I say, do you always buy return tickets?”’ stammer. his opponent. ‘‘Always.”’ ¢ Then i apologize.”’ : i

an you do your duty you will never have any spare time to attend to other people’s business unless they hire you.

T OSEFOI AND SUGGESTIVEE ‘HERE is an old, and said to be an! excellent, prescription for cholera, which is also a remedy for ordinary summer complaints, colie, dia,rrheai and dysentery: Take equal parts of’ ‘tim;ture of Cayenne pepper, tincture ‘of opium, tincture of rhubarb, essence of peppermint and spirits of camphor. Mix well. Dose, fifteen to thirty drops in a little cold water, according to age and violence of symptoms, repeated every fifteen or twenty minutes until relief is obtained. ‘ MaNGOES.—To stuff one dozen mangoes: Take one cup each of white and black mustard seed; one handful of horseradish, one teaspoonful each of cloves, mace, cinnamon, black pepper, celery seed, and one cup of sugar; mince asmall head of cabbage fine, pour hot vinegar over it and let it stand half an hour; then drain off, and when cold, Fut the mixture together, adding small beans and cucumbers, and fill the mangoes. - Place them in the kettle with steam up, and scald gently with vinegar. ;

- LiGETNING . CAKE.—Persons who “just drop in”’ are a nuisance in the opinion of many housewives, who, nevertheless, will be glad to learn of a cake of which the making and baking occupies only fifteen minutes, and which, therefore, will serve to conceal the nakedness of the larder when unexpected guests appear. Take the yvelks of four eggs, three tablespoonfuls of sugar, the same of flour, about two tablespoonfuls of milk, and the juice of half a small lemon; the whites of three eggs are beaten to a stiff froth and mixed with the, yelks, flour, ete., the compound then being put in a buttered pan and placed in a quick oven. : : MuskMELLON PRESERVEs.—Take ripe muskmelons, remove seeds and peel, and cut in pieces.” Put into a stone jar and cover with scalding vinegar; let them stand until the next day and pour off the vinegar; heat it and pour on them again. Do the same every day until the fourth day. Weigh the melon, and to every five pounds add three pounds of white sugar and one quart of the vinegar, and spice to suit. Put all together and simmer till tender. The next day but one, pour off the sirup and boil it down so there will be just enough to cover the melon. You may thin]% it will be a tiresome job, but if you try it you will be well pleased with it. .

CocoANUT CAKE.—Five eggs beaten separately, two cups of white sugar, one of butter, and four cups of flour in which one teaspoonful of soda and two of cream of tartar have been well beaten. Add the flour to the butter, sugar and eggs by degrees after they have been well beaten, with one cup of new milk. Flavor with lemon or vanilla; bake in jelly-cake pans. Get a box of desiccated:cocoanut, beat the whites of three eggs with one cup of sugar, spread the icing on and sprinkle with the cocoanut, add another layer of cake, then the icing and cocoanut; put two layers of icing and cocoanut on the last piece. It is delicious and beautiful, resembling a plate of snow, and is often called snow-cake.

. Profitable Farming, : There appears to be much confusion of ideas with regard to what is usually called profitable agriculture. In many instances—and, in fact, we might say as a general rule—the prevalent idea among farmers is that he who obtains most from his land with the least outlay in money or' labor secures the largest profit on the investment. Carrying this idea into practice has ruined millions of acres of farming lands, and left them little better than a worthless waste. To wear out soil as rapidly as possible by constant cropping, returning nothing to restore or keep up its fertility may appear for a while to be profitable farming; but it is far otherwise, as many have learned through bitter experience. The impoverished farms of the older States, and the rapidly ' increasing number in' the new, with the constant falling offin the yield of grain and other crops on land not long since declared to be simply inexhaustible, show that to expect large returns at the expense of the capital invested in farming is a ruinous policy. If a man can obtain forty bushels of wheat per acre, or seventy-five of corn, ‘and leave the land no worse for having produced the crop, then he can easily figure up his profits by counting the cost of raising thecrop, adding interest on the value of the land. But when he has impaired the intrinsic value of the land by diminishing its capabilities for producing a succeeding crop, this should also ‘be charged to the capital account, and deducted from the profits. This chargin% loss of fertility to crop accounts would, no doubt, be considered by many farmers a rather unvsual proceeding; but that 1t is perfectly legitimate and necessary, in order to arrive at anything like an accurate basis for calculating profit and loss, must be apparent to every one who will give it a moment's thought. We frequently hear farmers regretting the loss of fertility in their lands, and they will tell us that twenty, thirty, or more years 2go, when their land was new, they thought nothing of getting thirty or forty bushels of wheat per | acre, at a cost not exceeding the value of ten; ‘‘and then,” say they, ‘‘there: was. money to be made in farming.’” It may be true that a little money was made, but the capital upon which they were obtaining an excessive interest was rapidlyfbeinfg impaired, as the results in loss of fertility. plainly show. Had they pursued a diﬂ%rent. course, and k'ept't]}a)e land tich by raising more cattle, feeding the hay to their own stock instead of sending it to market, or practiced a rotation of crops, plowing one under oceasionally for manure, the result would have been far different, and farming on these old lands would have proved even more profita~ ‘ble than when they were new. i ' We have, however, a goodly number of farmers who do not count all taken | from their land as profit, but aim to k‘eeg their original capital invested in the land %ood,' and the crops raised as interest, less the cost of production. Farms of this kind are seldom for sale for less than the cost of imf)rovpments,! for they ‘are still profitable in 'hands

that know how to use them. To point out and explain how a certain class of farmers always manage to come out ahead, whether prices of farm products rule high or low, would require a repetition of the history of scientificor good farming in all its details; but the foundation of profitable farming is, as it always has been, a fertile soil judiciously managed. . We, frequently hear of good old farms, near good markets, being sold for less than the original improvements on them cost the owner; and while it may seem hard that land should be given away to any one who will pay the value of the buildings, they no doubt fetch all| they are worth. “The large old barns on some of these farms cost a good sum, and there was, no doubt, a time when they were well filled with grain and hay cut from the surrounding fields; but a man would now have to serape long and close to get weeds or straw enough from the same land to make a show in these capacious receptacles of farm products, and théy are consequently of little value in their present loecation. That these old worn lands will again be made productive there is not a shadow of a doubt, but it will cost all they are worth; and it can only be done by men of means and intelligence, who are willing to invest their capital in farming in the same way that they would in any other legitimate business, expecting to realize a reasonable profit upon the amount invested. If every acre should cost fifty dollars to muke it fertile, they will look for a reasonable return upon the amount, and upon all other outlays. The days for speculating in farms and farm iands are probably past, except in some of the newer States and Territories, where land is worth a mere nominal price, and its future value is dependent upon local influences, of which little or nothing can be known in advance of their actual development.—N. Y. Sun.

Officially Declared to Be Epidemic. - The Memphis Board of Health made the following official announcement on the 10th relative to the yellow fever in that city: ‘ L The Board of Health being informed that there is a disposition manifested on the part of some absentees from Memphis to return sooner than it would be advisable, and, as this disposition may be' increased, it deems tbest to submit the following statemert in regard to the prevalence and spread of yellow fever in the city. Though the death rate from yellow fever up to August 2, the date of the last reguiar weekly report, exceeded the deaths from all other causes by a few, but being less than that of the week previous the Board of Health was encouraged to believe that it would not exceed this number for any week during the prevalence of the disease, and as no practical ‘good, it was thought, would . result from the formal announcement of the epidemie, it declined to make such ‘announcement. At that time, August 2, it prevailed mostly in the neizhborhood where the first cases occurred in July, in the southern portion of the city, in the Fifth and in a portion of the SBeventh and 'l'enth Wards, and 1n the northeastern portion of the city, in the Eighth Ward, and could not be considered epidemic beyond those limits. During the last ten days it has extended beyond these limits, where it was hoped to be confined, and cases have been reported. Deaths have occurred in so many different localities of the city that it is now im%ossible to say what portion is not infected. Therefore the Board of Health makes formal declaration of a general epidemic. : The death-rate is small in proportion to the number of cases reported, and there are good reasons to hope that it will not exceed, if it again reaches, the. present week’s mortality during the prevalence of the disease. These reasons are: Some escape in every epidemic, not being liable to disease, from what cause we do not know. Many of those who remain are protected by previous attack, and it is reasonable to assume that many whp contract the disease will recover; that a large Iproportion of our .Fopulation who are liable to diseases have eft the city, and the work of depopulation is still in progress, which should be, no doubt will be, continued, unless free subsistence is supplied in the ecity, which would not only have the effect to prevent some from getting into camys, where such provision 'is made, _but would induce others to come into the city, and thereby become the means of spread- | ifngtit.he disease to localities now free from inection.

Therefore, in view of these facts, we are induced to believe, although the disease is liable to be here until frost, the rate of mortality will not exceed, if it equals, its present number for any one week in the future. Every practicable means of disinfection and local sanitation calculated to arrest the disease has been, and is now being, practiced. In this work the Board of Health has the active cooperation of both the National and State Boards of Health, through their respective representatives, Dr. R. W. Mitchell, of the fo;‘tmer, and the Hon. John Johnson, of the atter. Following is the number of deaths from yellow fever since its appearance, as reported to this office: For the week erding July 12, 3; for the week ending July 19, 6; for the week ending July 26, 34; for the week ending August 2, 25; for the week ending August 9, 29. Total number of deaths to date, 97. As is customary, the Board of Health will announce officially through the papefs when it is thought safe for absentees to return. G. B. THORNTON, M. D., President of the Board of Health.

[TRADE-MARK.] o The Best Remedy Known to Man! Dr, Clark Johnson having associated himself with Mr., Edwin Eastman, an_escaped captive, long a slave to Wakametkla, the medicine man of the Comanches, 18 now {)repared to lend his aid in the introduction of the wonderful remedy of that tribe, - y The experieénce of Mr.'Eastnan being similar to that of Mrs. Chas. Jones and son, of - Washington: County, Jowa, an account of whose. sufierings were thrillingly narrated in theé New York Herald of Pec. 15th, 1878, the facts of which aresso widely known, and so nearly parallel, that but little ‘mention.of Mr. Eastman’s ex})erinnces will be givén here. They are, however, pubished in a neat volume of 300 pages, entitled‘Seven and Nine Years Among the Comanches and Apaches,” of which mention will be made hereafter. Suffice it to say that for several years Mr. Eastman, while a ¢aptive, was compelled to gather the roots, gums, barks, herbs and berries of which: Wakametkla's medicine was made, and is-still .prepared to provide the SAME materials for the successtul introduction of the medicine to the world; and assures the public that the remedy is the same now as when Wakametkla compelled him to make it. . : b ; = 7 o 0 o 1 DS olv ’ W & it { ¥ ~ om o s (4 2“" Ly o \ fil ; = =3 LNKI7 o \,ﬂ SR / @y 0 o \i».‘,;‘,f_ LW l.ut X \‘\\ / /{;’/w/ g-— = \‘\}‘ I )-:",l - # ;Q NN A e o ' o S o ’/'// Z = & Yk {7 P ] ,/"' r‘i\ K-> T -om o 778 G =~ o 2 O Janeß e' R cC &S /.’ S NN S B 2 ) sdlee WO D ~ T S 8 AT A ) N\ D Q"" /“" ST IR AN & — 8 A NG AN = Q A \\‘ N R 'v\\‘\\\\\'{l-‘}‘f4§\\\\\\ 6 S A \ \\\\\" DR = NEANS A\e: ) ; PN AN % ‘.\‘j& \\“‘.\ ' A jz : Wakametkla, the Madicine Man.
