TEE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAP1I. PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE G, 18GG. AERIAL WtVlQATIOK. ftaeemd Trial of Nr. Andrew' Flying;. Mhlp A Partial KncMi, hn( the) Miia himu HUM Impoa-lect No Intelligence Yet from (be Dr. Solomon ' Andrews, the Inventor of the Flying Whip, made a secoud trial of his appwi. tus, Ironi hm yard corner ot Greene and Houstoi treets, in this city, yesterday. Mr. C. VV. Plumb, Secretary of the Aerial Navigation Com pany, only, accompanied him. The partial ailure of his tonner trip Dr. Andrews attributed o the Imperfect action of the rudder of his cratt, which proved to be insullicient to keep her In the proper direction. Since then he has con structed one of a different form, which H was hoped would prove more efficient. Ihe ascent was made about 6 o'clock P. M. The wind on the surface ot the earth was then blowinor briskly from the North. Although no public notice ot the proposed attempt had been (riven, a suspicion seemed to have crept abroad that such an attempt would be made, and at the hour of starting a large number of persons had collected In the streets and on the neighboring roofs. In starting, the balloon at first rose almost perpendicularly until above the sur rounding houses, and then drifted with the wind about 1.10 yard. wLen Dr. Andrews endenvored to bring her into the wind. In doing; this the rudder ropes appeared to become lammed, and the rudder remained fixed on one side, causing the balloon to move round and round in a circle for several minutes, still drifting with the wind and rising at the same time. At last th navi gators appeared to obtain a partial control over their machine, for they commenced to move in various directions and soon passed back again towards the North, going over almost precisely the same spot which ibey had just belore crossed towards the South. That the balloon was not drifting with dif ferent currents ot air was amply proved by the fact that the streamer attached to the car, in stead ol hanging down as in tlie case of an ordi nary balloon, stood out from it in different directions, as it blowD by a strong wind. Some tiroes i his streamer pointed towards the head of the balloon, sometime astern, and again towards either side, showing that the balloon was moving in a diflerent ("irectiou from the air which sur rounded it. The sand ballast, too, which the voyagers threw out, instead of dropping direct, could be seen blowing away from the car. It seemed clearly demonstrated That tin bal loon possessed motive power ot its own, but it . was at the same time apparent that the proper mechanism for using that power to its best eff ect has not yet been obtained. These faults of construction are, after all, not more than could fairly have been expected in any new ma chine, and if an effective motive power has really been obtained, there can bo no insur mountable obstacle to making It entirely elec tive. The voyagers continued to progress towards the noitn, and disappeared ia a cloud when ao parently about over Black well's IslanJ. We have no Intellieence of their whereabouts up to the time ot going to press. JV. Y. Tribune. X Sad Calamity Capsizing of a Small Boat .Loss ol l ive Ltres. Ou Saturday afternoon last a small boat, called the Bravo, set sail for St. Augustine, bound up the North river on a pleasure trip, with ten persons on board men. women, and children. The boat had not proceeded further than live mile3 when she got ashore on one of the shoals, and upon an atrempt being made to eet her off she was untortur.ately capsized, and her occupants precipitated into the water, where they were le't struggling for their lives. Under these circumstances, a Mr. liravo ex hibited a heroism which was the result of saving the lives ot two individuals, and in an effort to rescue his sister be was drowned with her. A young man named Lanipheus succeeded, after great lisk and exertion, in saving Mrs. Bravo and two other persons, whom he dragged upon a shoal. He immediately started for assistance, and after a walk of two miles ob tained the aid of several men, who returned with hlrtt to the hceue of the disaster, and brought ashore the four persons who had been saved. Among the lost were a little (laughter ot Mr. Bravo, and two children ot Mr. Mickler. We regret to state that Mrs. Bravo was rescued in such an exhausted conn it ion, tnat up to sun day night lat slight hopes were entertained of her recovery. Savannah Republican, Jnne 1. Annual Coiumnulcatlon of the Grand LoUice of treemataai ot Sew York. The Grand Lodge ot the State of New York commenced its annual communicuion vester day afternoon, at Irving Hall, M. W. G. M. Holmes presiding. After the customary cere monies, the M. W. Grand Master delivered an address, in which he dwelt upon the interior -workings of the actions of its members during the recent war, and the changes which bud taken place during the year. In the course of his re marks, the speaker said: Some months ago I received a letter from a friend, In which it was stated that an original Majonlc letter, written in 1782. by our illus trious Brother George Washington, and a lock of his hair, were in me possession of a lady who resided in this State. I subsequently went to the residence of General Ward, at Sing Sing, where I saw theje very interesting relics. Two brethren from the Great East of Nantes had written a very tlatterinsr letter to Washington, and piesented to him a biuhly ornamented sash and Masonic apron. Washington rnplied from his headquarters at Newburg, as follows: "tTATE or Kkw i ohk, August 10, 1783 lientlo men: '1 tie Masonic ornaments which accompanied your brotherly address on the 23d of January last, though clorant In themselves were rendered more valuable bv the flattering sentiments and affection ate manner in which thov wore presented. If my en dea I'ors to avert the evil with which the country was threatened by a deliberate plan 01 tyranny, should be crowned with the success that is wished, the praise I due to tie Grand Architect of the Universe, who did not see fit to sudor the superstructure of jus tice to be subjected to the ambition of the princes of this world, or to the rod ot oppression ot any power upon earth. For your affectionate vows permit me to be rraietul, and offer mine lor true brothers in all parts of the world, aud to assure you of tho sin cerity with which I am, "Yours, "G0. WA ffHINGTON. "Messrs. Watson and Cassout, hast of Nantes." The apron referred to is now at Alexandria. Va., in possession of Washington Lodge, No. 22, and is kept in the box which contained tho Lafayette apron, the latter being in possession of the Grand Lodge ol Pennsylvania. New York Tribune. A Jewish Divorce. The New Haven Journal and Courier has the following: "Yesterday a divorce, according to the prac tice in the Hebrew Church, took place at the residence of the Rev. J. Gabriel. At the pre sent term of the Superior Court a divorce was obtained by Louis Rothschild from Ksther Rothschild. One of the parties desired that a divorce should also be granted alter the manner of the Hebrew custom. Yesterday it was ac complished. As it is somewhat Interesting to know what the ceremony cousisted of, we give it. It was as follows: The wile, dressed in black, witn a black veil over her face, appeared with her Husband before a council or ten men, members ot the Svnaaogue. There were also present three rabbis, one of whom acted as the petitioner, and wrote out on parchment a petition in Hebrew asking for a divorce, aud also wrote out the decree of divorce; the second acted a the respondent or defendant, and the third as a kind ol fudge; the council of ten acting as a (ury. The man and wife having auoeared, they s nod side by side before the council. The rab bis and council then took an oath, all shaking hands the oath I elng to the effect that they would always consider tne divorca legal and binding. The wile then removed her veil, and the rabbi who acted as petitioner read the petl ti m in German, and stated the case to the coun cil, who, having heard it, decreed the divorce. The decree, folded up, was handed to the bus Dand, and the wile raiting her "pen banda, the nu'bsud dropped the paper into them. The rabbi who acted as judge then took it and cut th i ends' like a fringe. He then handed it to the pr iJent of the ivuagoirue, telling him to pluce It among the records of the society, to be pre served as evideuce of the divorce. This haviug been done, the ceremony was finished, and tue parties departed, uo longer man and wile." Professor Agassiz and the Emperor ol Brazil. A correspondent of the Boston Advertiser writes: "Very agreeable letters, dated May 3 and 4, were received in this city to-day (Saturday) from Professor Agassi. They were written at Rio de Janeiro, where he had arrived a few days earlier from his eminently successful expedition up the Amazon, and while he was making his arrnngements to return home. "The kindness of the Emperor of Brazil, who is a man ot no common culture, bad followed him wherever he had gone, and had facilitated In the most generous and effective manner all the scientific purooses and plans which Mr. Thayer's munificence bad enabled Professor Agn'sBiz to arrange and undertake a yenr ago. The Emperor even had borne In mind the favored naturalist, when they were separated by a thousand miles of Brazilian territory, and at a period of anxiety, too, when bis Majesty was at the bead of his army on the Rio Grande de Stil, carrying on the war against Paraguay. Kor, w hile he was in the distant province ot that name, he made a large and beautiful collection of its fishes, which, alter showing them to Pro fessor Agassiz, at Rio, he the next day presente l to him, with a graceful autograph note, from which the following extract is translated: "The fishes are to be sent to you. To you they entirely belong, lor it was with this thought that I collected them It Is a slight homave that 1 pay to soiouoo ; bat I sue that It was oi ome value to your eves, and 1 shall bo bappy if I thus place myself partly tn relation with the labors by which you will make better known the rich nature of my country, "DOJf l'KDRO II." "An imperial collection thus made will, we suppose, hardly be found to erace anv other museum in the world-certainly no similar col lection made with equal intelligence and ear nestness. The Emperor, it Is pluin, put his heart Into it." A Fanatic. An adventurer named Leonidas Bulgaria has just caused some excitement in Athens and other parts of Greece. CaTlcd away, as it would seem, by a false sentiment of patriot ism, and after long laboring la secret for the triumph of what is there called the great idea, he thought the hour come for the Christian population of Turkey to take up arms, and recovtr their Independence, his mission being to rouse them. Having succeeded in persuading about forty men to join him. he sailed with them, a fortnight since, for the coasts of Tur key. Several others, following b.ls example, have taken their departure tor the Dardanelles, Smyrna, and other towns of the Ottoman em pire, and in consequence some disturbances are looked tor. CITY INTELLIGENCE For Additional Local Items see Third I'age. FiGnTiJfQ ix A Good Cause. In Fifth street, above Plum, in a cellar, an honest citizen conducts the business of selling vegetables, lemons, aud oranres. Lastevening, as he was removing his show goods from the pavement to thespouritv- ot the cellar, a i-uspicious-looking individual poked himself through the doorway, and. little by little, edged himsell noarer to the proprietor. In answer to witat be wanted, he inquirod H the storekeeper bad much money. Olaticin at the burly, broad-sbouiderod questioner, the other cautiously answered he had very little, i hereupon, taking a step noarer, the stranger demanded that little portion, and, lor an answer, got a stunning bio on the temple, that sent him reeling upon a pi.e or potatoes in the corner. Stimulated by this first suc cess, tbe energetic storekeeper, big in spirit, though little m body, determined to keep tbe npper hand, and showered npon his opponent a multitude of blows that he could not resist. Toe result was that the stranger tboueht discet'on tho better part ot valor, and witbdre v, tnuttcrin diro threats of ven geance. Little heeding the impotent nvnaces, the strong-hearted merchant glanced proudly around upon the field of carnage, evident in the potatoes wet with the blood thai had so copiously flowed from tbe nos of bis opponent, and then leisurely las ened the bolts of his vegetable bazaar.

He said : May it please your Honor, as tbe answor of tbe Govtrnment to the que tions propounded by Mr. Kted on yosterday are considered of some Import ance, I bave written them out, aud propose to read them to the Court. May it please your Honor, yetoiday Mr. W. B. Beed, one of tbe counsel for Jefferson Davis, pro pounded certain quostion to the Court and to me, which, in the absence ot Mr. Chandler, I at that time deollned to answer. Mr. Chandler is still absent, being, I tegret to say, entirely prostrated by a recent scvore domestic calamity, and, as I promised, I to-day proceed to reply to tbe questions of the learned gentloman. Tbat gentleman correctly says that an Indictment has been found In this Court against his elient, Mr. Davis, and asks: "Is It to be tried? Ts it to be dropped or is it to be suspondod?" So far as I am instructed, 1 believe it is to be triod; but it will not be possible to do so at present, for a variety of reasons some of which I proceed to give. In tbe first place, Mr. Davis, although indicted In tbis conrt for high treason, is not now, and never has been In the custody of this Court, but is bold by the United States Government as a State prisonor at Fortress Monro", under an order of tbe President signed by the Secretary of Wer. ' In tbe second plaoe, even it the prisoner were in tbe custody of this Court, it would not be but this I assure the gentlemen who represent him here, that the hour Mr. Davis comes into tho custody of this Court, tbey shall bave full and prompt notice when it is intended to try him; and so far as tbe District Attorney and bis associates areeoncerned, they may be assured that tbeir case will bave a just and speedy trial wiibout further barrier, lot or hindrance. This I say tor the special department of the Court v bleb I represent. But what tne Intentions of the Government are with regard to the disposition ot Mr. Davis, I am not further fnstructed than I hare said. I now move, may it pleaso your Honor, that this Court, as soon as the business before it is disposed of, adjourn until the first Tuesday in October next. By tbat time, I trust, tbe beat of the summer will have passed away. The weather will be cool and pleasant, and, should we have the p'easure of seeing these gentlemen bore again, they will be more fitted for the arduous labors w.iich their profession con stantly imposes npon them. In the moantimo tbe crystallization process re ferred to by tho learned gentleman yesterday made jt possible tor the Attorney-General, in view ot his numerous and pressing engagements at the close of Ihe session, to come here now, aud try this oase, which as a case of great national importance he would be expected to do In tbe tblrd plaoe, if Mr. Davis is in the delicate state of health suggested by Mr. Beed, It would be nothing less than cruel at this hot and unhealthy season to expose hlin to the unavoidable fatigues or a protracted trial, which appears to be an iner ta ble result of the array of counsel pteent and prospective engaged for his delonse. Ji either this Court nor any of its officers bas any present control over the person of Mr. Davis, and untl they have, it becomes Impossible for the Dis trict Attorney to say wben be will be tried.

A lUanlcrer Twenty-eight Days Under Ground. About tureo weeks ago we published a letter from Brownsville, announcing the escape of ono Kodgers, who had killed an Assistunt Surgeon, of his regiment. The gallows was erected and all preparations made, tbe prisoner received religious consolation, and expressed his readi ness to die; but durin the night preceding tho day set tor execution, managed to effect a mys terious disappearance. It was positively asserted tout he bad Joined the contra-guerillas in Watamoros, and was nourishing in grand style about the streets of that town; but the sequel, as given in the euboined letter of our corres pondent, proves tbat this statement was a mis take: Bbownsville, Texas, Ma 25. Astounding as it may seem, it is nevertheless true, that William Kod gers, of the 77th Ohio Vete'an Volunteer, semetioed to be hung, escaped, soon and recoguizad. drunk with men ot bis own company in Matauioras, etc., etc, wasoaptured last nieht a most witlun the prison limit, above ground.
