"The elephant walks around,
The band begins to play,
The boys are 'round the monkey show,
They'd better keep away!"
A little girl three years of age sings thee
foregoing lines. Her musical' effort sug
gested the following stanzas, which are re
spectfully dedicated " To 40VEY:"
The usher is very polite, '
The children all seem
To lOok at the show, for "the' price is low,"
As he says, "it's only a shilling."
The lion begins to roar,
The rattlesnake shows his sting,
The monkey rides on the pony's back
Around the saw-dust ring.
A man, in spangled tights,
Goes into the wild beasts' cage
And lashes them all with a heavy whip,
Till they fly in a dreadful rage.
He puts his head in thelnolath
Of adion fierce, and whit;
a
I'd rather be in private box
'llan in that cage with him.
The boys on the bencia,in front
Eat/pea-nuts and ginger-bread,
And when the mule throve the clown off
his bank,
They throiv their shells at his head.
The ring-master seems very grand
And crackS a very long whip,
A boy rides a horse, standing up on his
head, . • •
And the clown at his heels does skip
The elephants, camels and niules,
With the band in a chariot fine,
'And all the beautiful horses parade
Down Che-tnut street in a line.
A Balloon Ascension at Night.
James Gladisher, an English balloonist,
recently Made two ascensions at night. He
givesthe reportoof the second in the sub
joined letter to the London Times;
The increase of temperature with eleva
tion met with on the night ascent of October
2, made it very desirable to ascend again at
night under the same circumstances, viz.,
with a clear sky, to confirm the results then
obtained. On Saturday, December 2, the
sky was cloudless, but after sunset it be
came covered with dark black clouds.
During the afternoon, and as long as the
sky was clear, pilot balloons, after attain
ing a certain elevation, were noticed by Mr.
Orton to change their direction from north
west to northeast, indicating a soutn west
current. It was therefore resolved to keep
in the lower current for an hour, so as to
have a good space of country to run over, if
the wind, at higher elevations should prove
to be towards the sea. The balloon left the
Royal Arsenal, Woodwich, at 5.16, nearly
an hour and a half after' the sun had set.
The wind was from the southeast. We kept
in this current till 6.18.
At this time we were nearly over Tring,
at an elevation of 3,500 feet, when a strong
wind was felt proving that the baloon was
at this instant in one current and,the car in
another; shortly afterward we entered a
south southwest current, and moved north
northeast till 6.48, at which time, whilst ad
justing an instrument, the lamp fell over
the side of the car, and the jar caused the
light to go out. On deseending the south
east current was again met with, and, as
near as could be determined, at the same
elevation. The temperature on the ground,
as determined by Mr. Howe, NVas 38.3 deg.;
it declined to 36.2 deg. at the height of 1,500
feet; it then increased, to 37.2 deg. at 1,890
feet; then declined ery gradoslly, with
occasional slight increase of temperature,
to 27.2 deg. at 4,100 feet, above which there
was no change to 4,700 feet. Shortly after
this, at 6.48. having had" the mistbrtune of
losing my light, further experiments were
necessarily discontinued. The temperature
on the ground was 401 deg.
The air was nearly saturated with mois
ture on the ground, and up to 1,800 feet,
where it was quite saturated, then some
what short of saturation to 2,600 feet, whore
it again became saturated; at heights ex
ceeding this the air was drier, and more so
at about 4,000 feet, where thetemperature of
the dew point was 8 deg. below that of the
air. Two terrestrial radiation thermome
ters read several degrees below the shaded
thermometer, one when 4,000 feet high was
18°, and the other 19°—the bulbof the latter
was on wool, while the other projected into
apace. • The path of the balloon, =leaving
Woolwich, was northwest, crossing the
river, Thames diagonally into Essex, from.
there nearly over Stratford at 5.28; across
Middlesex, nearly over Tottenham, at 5.36;
Clapton eight minutes afterward; near Tot
terbridge or Barnet at 5.52, thus passing the
north of London into Hertfordshire, near
St. Albans, at 6.10, and onward toward
Buckinghamshire; the Northwestern Rail..
way, near Tring, was directly underneath
at 6.18, having traveled at a rate exceeding
thirty miles per hour. After this we
changed our direction and moved north
ward, or north northeast, leaving Dun
stable on our right about 6.30.
After the light had been extinguished our
only care was to descendalooking down
ward, the earth seemed without inhabitants
—not a light was visible and not a sound
was heard—looking in the direction we were
proceeding, there were many woods which
we must pass, and we resolved thus t)
journey till we could have assistance; pres
ently we saw alight, and shortly afterward
everal, and Mr. Orton, with the utmost
dexterity, brought the - balloon to the
ground, without a bump, in the nearest
field to the village of Ridgemount, Bedford
shire.
The results of this ascent are very differ
ent from the preceding night ascent, but the
circumstances were totally different. In
the former case the sky was cloudless, in
the latter it was covered with cloud. • Some
of these clouds were within 1,000 feet of the
ground. One such cloud:was over London,
so that although passing north of London'
near to it, and not in clouds ourselves, not a
single light or any effects of the London
lights 'were seen. This cloud did not extend
to Greenwich, for the lights at both Wool
rich and Greenwich were very brilliant.
Great was the contrast in this respect be
tween the two ascents as was experienced
in other particulars.
While passing over the country the
former ascent, the reflections of the moon
beams .lighting up the river and many
aolitary sheets of water over the country
suddenly lighted up, and as suddenly
leaving them in darkness and brightening
up other's; these successive illuminations
were quite 'wanting in the ascent; the moon
herself was invisible, the earth was covered
in many places withiletached clouds far
below, some of large extent covering miles
of country, and others smaller.
While above the sky was uniformlyblack,
And kept this appearance throughout, even
vghen we were nearly one mile high. The
upper clouds must have been very high,
yet although the moon and its effects were
wanting, there,were many highly interest
ing views of the distribution of cloud, and
of the different effects of the diffused light
:over woods or fields, which prevailed over
the earth, so that boundaries of fields could
be seen even at our greatest elevation, and
enabled us to determine satisfactorily our
path by . noting tbs angle the balloon - crossed
the fields btoomparieen, wikh the position
of the wSittildie.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
CARSON GOLD MINING COMPANY,
.
NORTH CAROLINA.
The Land of this Company consists of 120 ACRES
in Mecklenberg county, North Carolina, 331; miles from
the town of Charlotte, 013:8 branch of Sugar Creek,
which stream furnishes gook water power for grinding
the ores. This Mine was first opened in 1838 by a man
named Carson, who worked It successibily for a num
ber of years. He died in the town of Charlotte, ib
1846, worth over half a million dollars.
Two shafts have been sunk on this property, one of
them 80 feet, the other 60 feet, on different veins.
averaging from two to three feet in thickness, which
veins still continue on down increasing in width and
richness. These shafts are In good order, and ore can
be readlly taken out at any time. Other vans have been
discovered on this property, and tested and proved to
be very rich In gold. The ores of this mine are known
as the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily
per bushel. This is believed to be one of the best and
most certain mines in the State, on account of the
abundance and quality of the ore, and ease In which
it is obtained and reduced. This property has been
worked by Major Z. A. Grier from 1840 to the breaking
out of the war. This Company have purchased this
property, and intend to erect machinery and put the
mines in immediate operation. The many advantages
of this mine over the mines of Colorado and Nevada
can hardly be estimated. It is more readily reached,
and has abundance of fuel, with cheap labor. It can
be worked all the year, and not, as in the case of Colo
rado and Nevada, be compelled to lie idle for three or
four months in consequence of the severity of thti
winter.
This mine having been worked for a long time
proved to be aric.h paying one. We do not, therefore
have to incur the risk there Is in an undeveloped pru
perty, but can count on large and immediate returns
on the investments. Having an ore that readily yield•
$lO per bushel, some estimate can be made of th.-
value of this property. With the present imperfect
system of mining In this locality, and absence of pro
per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken on ,
daily from every abaft opened. Estimating, say 1-
bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be $1,500 front
ene shaft, allowing $3OO perday for expenses. The ne
product will be $1,200 per day; counting 300 working
days to the year, the yearly proceeds will be $360,00‘ , .
which yield can be largely increased by extending the
works. This is considered a very,iow estimate of th , -
sapaity of this mine by experienced miners of that
localy. The Assayer of the United States Mint at
Charlotte, in speaking of this property, says it has fe"
equals in productiveness In that country, and with
proper management and machinery the above pro
duct can be doubled.
