Fashlotitible Pilgrims.
Would you have believed thai/Witoft, that ca
pricious divinity of the Parasinn world, wonld
interfere in the Pilgrimages tolhc Holy /-.and?—
Formerly a pilgrimage to Jerusalem was a very
serious and painful affair. The traveller look his
tftalT in his hand, and going on foot—often bare
foot—advanced slowly to his placo of destination.
For monllrd ho suffered hunger and thirst; he bore I
patiently the heat by day and the cold by night. I
At last, after prodigious efforts, ho leaps for joy
at the sight of Bethlehem, Nazareth, the brook
Kedfon, (ho mount of Olives, the Holy Sopft|6fire.
Such uiaj if pilgrimage. But hoW changed the
custom nou'j A pilgrimage to Palestine is be
come On affair of pleasure and diversion. Tfio
origin of the change is curious. ’ A certain 2?rMJ>p
of Same*—probably having nothing better to do, -
for his bishopric contains no Roman Cnthpllcs—
announced, one morning, that he bad planned a
\p r eaBure party for Jerusalem;' that this pilgrims
would go,first to Marseilod, by iho railways; (hat
thence they would be transported to the coasts of
Syria, by a alem&boai,’ on which-every comfort
tfr.d ftontfcniencd wotild bo' provided \ that they
could accomplish (heir pilgrimage in three or four
wtoks. , Besides, their purse would nopb’o greatly
taxed, for they oodld go for ifte Small sum of o
l/iouSdnd to Jerusalem and back to Paris,
This proposal wad vers templing. A'bod't fdnV
persons profited of this good occasion, and eet off |
under the guidance of (ho Bishop of Samos. They i
must bo now in Palestine.' The journals have
published some of their letters on (ho way. it
would seem that those pilgrims enjoy themselves
highly. They have music, and hear mass on the
deck of tbo vessel when the Weather is fair, tot
us wait iliotr return. You may be sure they will
represent their fashionable pilgrimage as a very
meritorious act. —Correspondence of the Nexo York

Wo Bco ly the Pennsylvania papers that Mr. Wise
tlio celebrated balloon operator, Intends to petition
i Congrce j onco more for the necessary funds lo make
i a balloon trip from New York lo Europe. Mr. Wiso
is a man of great pra'ctical experience, 110 is coot
and self possessed, and lays claim to oil the necessary
enthusiasm In “put tho thing through.’ The idea
that the Atlantic can bo cioflscd, and that succoss
’ fully, by balloons, has long been entertained. Wise
[ Says tho distance between Now York and Liverpool
can bo done in 46 hours. Mr. Wiso has made near,
ly I (JO ascensions, and from experiments made dil
* ring these ascensions, bo lias demonstrated that there
* Is within two miles of. the earth a current of air,
> constantly blowing from west to east, at a rate of
! speed varying from from 40 to 70 miles an hour.—
i Will), this speedy tlio distance between N6w York
i and Liverpool would bo done in a little over forty
, hours! Mr. Wise does nut sdpposo (lift balloons
will over pity a very prominent part fn comul'erefaf
matters, although ho thinks they would prove ad'
Invaluable auiilfary id our Post Office department.
Tho European malls, ho thinks, could bo as will
carried obovo Water as through it—in ■ galloon'as
in a steamship; For lea's than one half (ho money
which Congress gives Mr. Collins, ho agrees to put
oh s lino of balloons between tlio rjnilca Skates and
that win do tho distance In oho fourth of the
(imp consumed by tho Daltlo or Arabia. All Mr.
Wise asks to tost his experiment is $lO,OOO. Wit h
this amount loaned to' It Inf, ho would immediately
construct a tal/oon whose buoyancy would bo equal
to one hundred tons. Wise's plan is eminently
practical. Ho does not intend to fight (ho winds |
1 with steam, as some of our visionaries do, but to,
lake advantage u( the currents of (ho wind. !
If ho should atari from New York with a south-
West wind, lib would confine himself, by moans of
a dfogJropo, to tho surface of tho occoh. Should
the wind change, ho would up with his drag, and
seek a region where a fair wind is always blowing.
Wish has (ho right Idea of things, and If over tho
ocean U crossed at the rale of 70 miles an hour.
Wiso will bo tho man lq do it- There is one advan
(ago about a balloon (rip that will commend Itself
to everybody, (hero w|ll bo no sea sickness, nor any
ba'd woollier. Should a storm set in, all you' hayo
(o do is lo throw over a little ballast, and rise lo tlio
region of eternal sunshine.
Wo hope the idea wjll bo allowed to develop itself.
All that Wlsq asks oftho government if an appro
priation of 910,000, which la 813.000 loss than Con
gress fooled away on Page's electrical engine.—
Again wo say, give Wiso a ebanoo. |f mails can
bo sent from Now York (o Liverpool in 40 hours,
tho sooner wo, go into (ho airtngbmenl tho bolter.—

the North, has got a baby Exchange paper.
( Well, what of* it T’ Has’nl “Jenny Lind, the
peerless, the nightingale of lhe : North,” a right to l
| have a baby, we should liketoknow! Would
you alwayi have her singing to the cold world,
I warm as it may be in admiration of her songs,
[charming If.by her sweet notes! Must she al
ways be warbling'(6 gaping crowds, who gaze
upon'her only as a public performer? Look into
[the nursery where Jenny’s baby sleeps, inits lit
. tie cradle, and hear the low lullaby of her sweet
voice. See how fondly, she gazes upon the
helpless thing, and when it opens its little
eyes and looks trustingly up in the face of its
mother, hear how she warbles the “Bird Song,”
to ctarm jt back to sleep. Liston to the angelic
(Sounds. There is no effort, no artin that seraphic 1
, music. It comes,gashing forth from a heart full 1
[of a mother’s affection, overflowing with a moth-!
er’s yearning. How soft and low it Is, and yet
how full of the inlensesl love! Be still! An-j
plaud not! It la nature, all nature, sapremely i
sweet though it be. ,Disturb not the enchanting |
harmony, by the voice of praise! See, those little I
eyes have closed again. Jenny’s baby sleep?,
and the song has died»away—vanished slowly, <
like a dream, or a receding sha wdow, ioursilence. 1
Reck tho erailo." Jenny.
But why, we ask again, should not Jenny, the
world renowned Jenny, have a baby to love, lo
kiss and hug, to toss Into Iho air, and trot upon
her knee, and chirrup to, and tumble about, with
all a mother’s dealing playfulness! She conquer
ed fame—shall she linger in solitary age, and die
alone at last! Shall the heart's affections be
wasted in the pursuit of ambition; and shall no
loving and trusting faces cheer her through life,
and siand around her death-bed like bright vis
sions looking upward towurd the akyl Shall sjp
walk the world s high places oompanionless, and
without a staff for her age (o lean upon! No.-
Ten thousand limes dearer to her mother's heart
Is the crowing, even the cries of that little one,
(ban tho loudest applause that ever wont up from
the crowded audience, on.the da}’ of her proudest
triumph. Teh thousand limes sweeter is its smiles
than the fragrance of the flowers that were show
ered upon her, as’a tribute of admiration to her
transcendent sweetness of song. Yea, yea, am
bition is nothing—triumphs are nothing—admira
tion of the world,and fame and wealth are nothing.
Hie mother looks upon her little child, her heart
