In brotherly embrace walked the Angel of Sleep
and the Angel of Death upon the earth. It was eve*

prevailed all around, and the chimes of the.evening
bell in the distant hamlet ceased. Still and silent,
ai Was their custom, sal these two beneficent Genii
of the human race, their armsonlwincd with cordial
familiarity, and soon the ahades of night gathered
around thorn. Thun arose the angul of sleep from

i, 1850.:
M. Lemolne, one of the editpra.of the ijburnaJ
des Debate, has written an account of his ascent
at Paris with Lieutenant Gale, in, his balloon.
Wo present ouj readers with an Mr*
iJJale Is a Lieutenant of the Itoyal.British Navy*
and wears the undress uniform* He has,the bold,
decided air of the sailor. He takes the same
of .his balloon ;pa. one., man would.take of a
racehorse, or another of a fine vessel. Precisely
at five o'clock we left, waving the flags, namely,
the French flag, that of the moment, and the
union jack. We were four in number: Mr. Gale,
{dr. Olitton, (a young Englishman, who had al
ready made three ascensions.) M. Leon Tripier,
and myself. The ascent at first, as everybody
might perceive, was fery ritpid, Uls at tins mo*l
ftienl alone that novices, at least I speak formy-i
self, experience a certain giddiness; hat after a I
few moments this disappears. There.lsa pecu 4 |
liarlly in,the balloon Of Mr. Gale, and in Uufaff]
cehslcm With him; 1 speak of ihe incredible. fskr
deforce that he performs in descending by a rope
lachierto his lower car. The.’upper, and larger
car may be compared Co ajarge round, basket.
,We- were ranged around, it*, with, one artn.dn .the,
cordage, not to keep us /ropr falling out. but from I
tailing in,’ The mealier and lower car is suspend
ed at'a distance of, thirty-five feet from the upper.
In «uder.lo;oo dqtyMu/jib. Mr. Gale,.raises a sort
of lld.or tfap bottom of the upper car, arid
then ihere is an opening barely sufficient for the
passage of his.,body. It Is through this opening
that he descends" by & rope ladder to let off his
fireworks, which are attached to the lower car.
It:is impossible,to qoncelve anything more terri
ble than this man suspended in space by ft cord
at the height of half a mUe from the earth, and
descending with admirable sangfroid to his lower
car. It was a'moat hatrowing sight for us to
|ook:a« him through the opening a I oiir feel, for
the distance, on account of the smallness of the
opening* appeared double. The effect of such a
sight would, if continued long, be insupportable.
On reaching the lower ear, Mr., Gale set fire to
his bombs, which* I am told, produced, with the
persons on terra firma, the effect of discharges of
canpon. , Some persons thought it was a salute
in honor of tho prognallnn of the assembly.—
With us above the effect was,very different; At
first there was a sharp sound, like the snapping
of a percussion cap; then, at ihe.niomenl of Un
explosion, it seemed os If we heard djatant and
continued thunder,.. 1 am told that this firing
made a large number of Parisians,.who were n»>t
thinking of tho balloon, lift up their, heads. Af
ter this boquet, Mr. Gale resumed his ladder for
the purpose .of rejoining tvs. .Keen fr/un below
this is frightful, and seen from above ,U !s by no
tneatls .tranquiUzing. If a perched on a
yartf jails into lire pea, a cry is raised of j*a mam
toverimard.*’ but what .cry wbald fve ralse;if our
seaman , hact’fallen Into the atmosphere! Hut
hereheTs! Wo see him the I
trapf ; .lsa brow’.covered with -We

only Imagine thfs devil j>f a man t» have missed
Ibis footing on ids descent or ascent with his cord.
■I or to have set fire to himself with his fireworks,
and I will ask you what wo should have done
in thnair, and how we should have gone on in
hove seen if spring was advancing,*.-iThls was
not one of the positions In which to exclaim
ciltn deteensw* Jivcrnt. Happily for us. it was his
109th ascension, ami it.does not appear that he
has ever fallen. We uVre heartily glad, howev
er, in are him return safely. The lieutenant was
as calm and unruffled .as Baptiste, and we drank
a glass of Maderia to our good'acquaintance.”
