Last Evening about Sun down,

oar attention was called to a balloon floating gracefu ly through the air, in a Korth Easterly direction. As it thus floated graceful as a swan, through mid, air,— the thought suggested itself, Will the time not com6, when such sights will be common, as sails on the ocean of the atmosphere—Air-ships, passing in all directions bearing living,? human freight.

ID" It is astonishing to se^and hear of the bargains that E. S. "Wolfe A Son are now giving their customers. This is conclusive evidence that they are determined to close out their stock. All those -who are interested had better not be too late. ........

Badly Scared, but not Hurt. In passing down Main street, to-day, we saw a large crowd of people—some running with their hats off. in different directions, apparently lost, but the main force seemed tube concentrating opposite No. 2 in Early's block. We "took to our heels" to be in fashion—for wo always try to be fashionable, in some things—and soon we were on the field of strife we rushed in—and—and found J. M. Adams selling-ready-made Summer Clothing cheaper than ever was heard of in our civy. A great many Vere grumbling because they were too late, the only reply we heard, to th*»se mutteriugs, was "Why don't you take the Daily American, and keep posted on these things?" We took a coat (to be in fashion} and left, fully satisfied th*t Mr. Adam's will do just as lie makes the "American" say.— Try liitn and see 1

The Judge's Sentence of David M. ^^gtocking. ^-2^ The prisoner, David M. Stockingwas brought before the Court this morning, •when Judge Pettit proceeded to sentence him as follows"'

David M. Stocking, stand up. You tve been indk-ted by the Grand Jury of the County, for the murder of John so, a worthy, unoffending and highly esteemed citizen on the night of the 8th of January last, for the sordid purpose of getting money by-robbery a Traverse Jury have patiently listened* to and Carefully weighed and investigated the evidence, btt for and against you and upon the trial you had the benefitof ble counsel who has left nothing undone which could tend to establish your innocenoe.vV^That Jury upon their solemn oath have found that you a've guilty and that you suffer death.

A few days ago while sentencing Ilice and risk oil for the murder of Falirenbaugh, I fervently prayed God that I might never again have a like duty to perform. That prayer has not heen granted. The Wise Dispenser of all things has said, let justice be done and crime punished before the prayers of mortals shall be answered and the painful duty devolves on me of asking you if you have any legal cause to show why judgement shall not be pronounced against you, which I now do and pause for your response if you have any to make.

The prisoner denied that he was guilty of the murder, but admitted that he was informed all about it on Saturday following.

Entertaining no doubt of your guilt,

Deleware, unanimously Michigan, do Wisconsin, Connecticut^4

Pennsylvania, one exception .^Illinois do ,• California do

In addition to' this, the delegates from the District of Columbia, and ^lte Minnesota, voted for it together with a Mackerel portion of the delegates from Maryland, North Carolina, and New York. Massachusetts, Maine, and Indiana, voted unanimously against it, and all of Ohio but one.- Had these four States voted otherwise, the pro-slavery platform would have been defeated.—Ex.

And yet the South is denounced for agitating the question at all, and we ar^ asked to endorse the Indiana delegation* for voting with these pro slavery mem* bcrs. .Consistent verj'.,.j,-

CHANGE OF TIME.^-The attention of the travelling public—^nd who does not travel?—is# callcd to the notice of change of time, on the T. II. fc R. Railroad. Although these changes, area great trouble and expense to the company ret they hesitate not to incur both for the accommodation of travellers. This the model roa-. of the West, was never better managed, than under its present efficient officers!!"..' The only fault we have to find, is, that they are down)oh dead heads, ,.•

RUKNINO AGAINST TIME.—We are informed that train of cars passed by this city last night, having left St.Louis \esterday afternoon—for New York City—with a view to determine tho time between these remote points, as data to form a time tablo.^ It is expected that the trip will be made between these points in thirty six hours.
