FOREIGN MISIIEIAL&NY.
A New BALLOON.—A meeting composed of mem
bers of the National Institute, of 'various scientific)
societies, of railway directors, bankers, and direct
ors of the press, was held in 'Paris, a few days ago,
at the manufactory of M. Nader, to hear his oxide.
nation of a new balloon. M. Nadar explained to the
assembly his theory of aerial locomotion by the sub
stitution of a screw and of inclined planes for the
present system of air balloons. He admitted that
this theory was not new, inasmuch as in the year
1768 it was predicted that the screw would be em
ployed in aerial navigation. M. Nader concluded
by appealing to the company to assist hirrein making
his system known, and in reducing it to ractice.
M. de la Landelle, who is connected with Nadar in
the construction of the balloon, confirmed his col
league's statement, and set in motion several mo
dels of machines constructed by M. de Pon
ton d'Anneeourt, who is likewise a partner
in the affair. These balloons were raised auto
matically, lifting graduated weights so perfectly as
in all appearance to demonstrate the acouraoy of the
theory. It is announced that an Anglo-French com
pany informed to provide the amount necessary for
the construction of a gigantic balloon capable of
raising eighty persons in a oar two stories high,
which will contain provision's and other necessaries,
including, it is said, a printing press. The diameter
of the balloon is to be equal to three-fourths the
height of the towers of Notre Dame. '12,000 yards of
White silk have been supplied by a Lyons mann.
facturer, at 7f. the yard. This monster balloon is to
be inaugurated next month at the races of Baden-
Baden. Subscribers for the trip have already set
down their names. It is to last eight days and eight
nights. After having made a trip across the Chan
nel and another in the Mediterraneanthe company
at whose expense the balloon is to be constructed
will exhibit it in London, Paris, and New York.
The produce of the exhibition is to be employed in
the construction of a definite aerial locomotive.
" CLOS DE VOUGEOT."—We see instated that the
famous Olos de Vougeot is to be sold. The vineyard
that produces the most genial and generous wine of
the Burgundy vintage is to be knocked down (oh,
profanation !) not to the hardest drinker, but to the
highest bidder ! The announcement has caused a rush
Of all fthe great wino dealers from all points of the
compass to the city of Dijon, where samples of the
different vintages of the Olos Vougeot are held at
the disposal of the tasters. The ulos Vougeot is
considered in the east of Europe as the very best
wine of French produce. The south prefers the yin
de Grave, while Chamberlin and Nuits are more
favored by the English amateur. Sometime ago the
eccentric Gen. de Castiglione, being at the head of
his troopa en leaving Dtion, caused his men to' draw
up in array before the hillside, where hung basking
in the sun the ruddy vines of Clos Vougeot.
Solemnly was the name pronotriced, and at the
sound the flags were unfurled, the drums beat the
royal salute, and the troops marched by, presenting
arms as to the most honored sovereign in the
universe. Such is the high esteem in which Me
Vougeot is held. The moat fearful forebodings are
uttered at this moment, the most terrific prognostics
pronounced concerning the probable transferring of
Thos Vougeot into the hands or the English ; but
Russia has already deputed her agents to oppose all
bidders. She has not been able to subdue Poland,
will she be powerful enough to conquer Olos You
geott A curious circumstance has been brought to
light by the competition. It 'appears that the best
Saint Quilion produced in France is for the Sultan's
table. Just fancy this son of the prophet getting
jolly in the infringement of the law, tempted by the
nectar of the Ohrietien dogs into disobedience!
THE RESTORATION OF PIOTUREIL—A Mulish
letter describi s a marvellous discovery which has
been Made by,a Herr Pettenkofer: "He has con
trived a process whereby the ravages of half a dozen
centuries can, in the course of a few days, be re
moved to perfection. .A painting which the encrus
tations of ages have rendered an unintelligible
blotch, on which neither form noicolor is any longer
distinguishable with certainty, becomes in Petten
kofer's hands transformed at once into a picture so
fresh and brilliant that the most experienced con
noisseur would judge it to have left the easel
yesterday. By the most convincing and unfint
peachable experiments Pettenkofer demonstrated
before the Government committee and the Munich
Academy of the Plastic Arta, the truth of this the
ory, and the wonderful perfection of his new pro
cess. As Pettenkofer has scientifically ascertained
thmtrue cause of, the effects in question, he is able
to produce the work of-centuries in a few days or
hours. He can not only make an of picture look
like a new one—he can do the reverse. He can make
a picture which is fresh from the artist's hand look
as if lt were four or five centuries old, putting in
creeks, blotches; ' - discoloration ,
discoloration, encrustations; in a
way which would deceive the most experienced
eye."
Tux AMBASSADOR'S Doo.—A question of inter
national law of small proportions has just been de
cided in favor bf Mr. Dildyard, an attach 6 of the
British embassy in Par* Mr. Hildyard keeps a
slog in respect of which he lately received a tax
gatherer's paper claiming a duty of ten shillings in
pursuance of the new act rendering dogs liable to
taxation. Mr:lllldyard claimed exemption on the
ground that inasmuch as foreign ministers' dogs
were not taxed in England, his dog ought to be free
on the principle of reciprocity. The head of the
tax-gathering department thought this a good plea,
but the question was nevertheless brought before a
court of law for decision. At the hearing, M. de
Guignd, the judge advocate, was of opinion that the
reciprocity doctrine would not hold water ; but he
nevertheless thought that Mr. Hildyard's dog was
entitled to repudiate the tax, because he inhabited
Lord Cowley's house, which, by a recognized fiction
of international law, is British territory. The court,
adopting this view, decided that Mr. Hildyard's dog
stood upon precisely the same footing as all the other
'inersonrjel of the embassy.
DIS COVBILY NEAR WESTAIDISTICR.
Aunnv.—Avery curious case of discovery of hidden
treasure has just come to light. Workmen are em
ployed in pulling down some old houses adjoining.
Westminster Abbey. The other day, while so em
ployed, one of them found in a groin of an arch a
number of rose nobles of Edward IV's reign. The
man appears to have sold them for £75, and shared
the money with his fellow-workmen. The matter
came to the ears of the canons of the Abbey, and
they instituted an inquiry. The result was that the
laborer who found the gold was brought up at the
Westminster Police court, but has since been dis
charged, the magistrates being of the opinion that,
although he found and sold the valuables, no charge
of felony could be sustained against him.
AN Aymara - iv cavalry officer, whose name is not
given in the papers, has laid an extraordinary bet
with two of his comrades. In the course of Sep
tember he engages to ride to Paris starting from
Freeburg, and perform the entire distance of one
thousand miles within twenty. one days. He is to
use one horse only for the journey, making about
fifty miles a day ; he is to tend feed, and groom his
nag himself. Free to choose his route, he will be
accompanied by his opponents, who are also at
,liberty to go•by horse or rail as they like.' Stakes,

THE Militirry budget of Austria f0r1864 shows
that notwithstanding - the uncertain aspect of the
political horizon, the army of the empire will un
dergo important reductions. The total number of
effective and non-effective-for 1864 is 417,697 men
nd 59,216 horses. These figures are lees by 56,963
en and 7,144 horses than in 1861, and less by 125,976

THE new Jewish synagogue, which has been built
at Berlin, surpasses in size and in magnificence the
largest buildings of the kind in Europe—those at

OXIDE OF IRON SHIPS.—The whole of the armor
plates ol the cupola ship Royal Sovereign are to be
covered with a vitreous sheathing, which consists of
a surface -of glass based upon email plates of iron,
sufficiently thin to be to a certain extent flexible,
which are applied to the ship by a new adhesive
process, and have been ascertained to be capable of
resisting all ordinary contingencies from pressure or
abrasion. The coat is ls. Gd. per square foot.

LITERATURE AND ART.
THE END OF THE FRIENDSHIP OF Fox AND
BIIRKE.—The following sketch of an interesting
historical event is from a contribution in the last
Atlantic Monthly by Hon. Charles Sumner :
"Few political events in English history are read '
with more interest than the separation of Burke
and Fox. They had been friends and allies ; but the
French revolution, which separated so many per
sons in France, reached across the channel to sepa
rate them. They differed so radically with regard
to this portentous, undeveloped movement, that
their relations, both political and personal, were
rudely severed. Burke, in the House of Commons,
openly announced this result. He was most ear
nestly inveighing against France, when he said, It
may be indiscreet in me at my time of life to pro
voke enemies, and give occasion to friends to desert
me.' Fox whispered, There is no loss of friends.
Burke for a moment paused, and then exclaimed
Yee, there is a loss of friends; I know the price of
my conduct. I have done my duty at the expense
of my friend. Our friendship is at an end.' As he
- finihed, Burke walked across the floor of the
House, and squeezed himself between Pitt and Dun
dee, on the Treasury bench. Fox rose to reply,
while tears streamed down his face. In the course
of his remarks.he intimated that Burke had heaped
upon him the most ignominious terms. Burke at
once said that he did not recollect having used any ;
when Fox replied, 'My right .honorable friend
does not recollect the epithets. They are out of "his
mind. They are completely and forever out of
mine. I.: cannot cherish a recollection so painful ;
and from this moment they are obliterated and for
gotten.'
"But the difference was too intense. A few days
later it broke forth again. 'I- complain,' said
Burke, 'of being obliged to stand uponi my defence
by the right honorable gentleman, who, when a
young man, was brought to me, and evinced the
most promising talents, which-I used my best endea
vors to cultivate; and this man, who has arrived at
the maturity of being the moat brilliant and power
ful debater that ever existed, has described me as
having deserted and abandoned every one of my
principles !I Fox replied, but alluded to Burke no
longer as friend,' but as • the right honorable gen
tleman,' and said, in a taunting style, that all he
had to do was to repent, and his friends would be
ready to receive him back and love him as they had
previously done.' Burke waslindignant. He said,
I - h 2 rrcec. , c ,- ' 6 h.oush-invvouth without encounter
ing any party disgrace, and, thougn - my
have been so unfortunate as to meet it, I do not so
licit the right honorable gentleman's friendship, nor
that of any other man, either on one aide of the
House or the other.' This most important and his
toric friendship was at an end: ,
ROBERT AND OLARA SORIIMANN.—MusicaI peo
pie will find enjoyment in Mr. Conway's personal
sketches of Robert and Clara Schumann, in the
Atlantic /Monthly, whom he styles "the Brownings of
Music." Travelling in the Northwest, one whiter
day, Mr. Conway encountered an old friend of Schu
mann, of the interview with whom he gives this
pleasant account :
"Enter," replied a voice, eagerly but softly.
Enter I din, and 'stood before a. man of abOut
forty winters. His face was so swart that I could
see only the German in the blue eye, and at once
imagined that a stream of Plutonic Dire hadatream
ed into his veins from some more Oriental race.
I stammered out an apology for my intrusion,
but told him how irresistible were such subtle
threads 'as Schumann's "Carnival" had project.
ed through the walls which separated our rooms.
" Florestan," I said, "was too much for me."
Then his eye lighted up as might that of some
Arctic voyager, which, having for bleak months
rested only on the glittering scales of the ise-drs
gon coiled about him, is suddenly filled with the
warm spread of the olar Sea. Taking my hand, he
said :
“In me, wanderer that I am—in me, with the
Heimweh in my heart never to be stilled but in that
home where Schumann has already gone—you see
Florestan,”
"Louis Boehner
Filled with wonder, and scarcely knowing , what I
did, I took a little piece of paper which he unwrap
ped from many folds and placed in my hand. On it
these words were written :
"Peace and joy attend thee, Louie Boehner ! and
inapt thou never want for such a friend as thou haat
* been to ROBERT SCHUMANN."
I could say no word ; never have I felt profounder
emotion than when, at this moment, I drew so near
one whose brow art had crowned with a living halo.
Soehner also told the story of Schumann a love
and marriage, which is too long to quote here, anti
or hie insanity and death, the concluding part of
which is as follows
" Once, when I was at Frankfort, Clara Schumann
went methis word : gluten. , I left all my affairs,
and came to watch for many months beside this be
loved one. It was not a wild delirium which had
taken possession of him; the only fit of that kind
was that in which he tried to drown himself in the
Rhine, at the time when the papers got hold of the
terrible secret. His insanity was manifested in his
conviction that be was occupied by 'Mb souls of Bee
thoven and Schubert. .
_ .
"Much in the manner of your American mediates,
he Would be seizett a by a controlling power—would
snatch a pencil, and dash out upon paper the wildest
discords. Thc ea we would play for him, at his re-
quest, from morning till night—during much of
- which time he would seem to be in a happy trance.
Of this music no chord or melody Was true; they
'Were jangling memories of hie miler days.
"One any he called his wife and myself and took
our hands in his own : 'Beethoven says that my
earthly music is over ; it cannot be understood here;
he writes for angels, and I shall write for them.'
Then, turning to me, he said : ' Louts, my friend,
farewell I This is my' last prayer for you,' handing
me the paper which I have shown you ; 'and now
leave us, to come again and kiss me when I am
cold.'
"Then I left him alone with hie Clara.
"A month from that time Schumann was no
more:
GENERAL NEWS.
DISGRACEFUL OCCUILRENCE.—The Troy Times
tells a story of the greediness of a few women of
that city for the possession of the worldly goods
of a female relative, who died on Monday. She
had scarcely breathed her last when they began to,
appropriate her wardrobe, trying on dresses,B:.c.
Her husband entreated them to desist, asking them
to wait until she was buried. This he finally pre
vailed on them to do. He thought they would wait
at least until the day after the funeral, but what
was his surprise, on returning from thegrave, to see
the carriage containing the mourners appear 'before
his door, said mourners being evidently intent upon
assuaging their grief by a partition of the worldly
goods of the deceased. The husband begged them,
for shame's sake, to wait another day, and finally
told them plainly that nothing should be touched
that day, but they commenced stripping the horse,
tearing up the carpet, Sic.
THE Cnors.—We condense the following from our
exchanges, in regard to the crops, weather, Ste., in
different States
New Ilampshire.—Hay crop injured. Crops of all
kinds lookinv well. Potato rot is feared.
Connecticut.— Potatoes and corn promise well.
Apple prop about an average; peas light ; peaches
none.
Rhode Island.—The prospect for the onion crop is
not good. They sell readily now for one dollar a
bushel.
indiana.—The frost about the middle of last month
did much damage, and corn, potatoes, and melons,
were widely injured. Wheat is good,. Large yield
of pears, peaches, and apples.
Michlaan.—Wheat an avernge. Fruit abundant,
Corn injured by frost. Hay good.
Illinois.—Wheat fair. Fruit abundant. Corn fine
in some localities. Sorghum good.
Canada.—Crops of all kinds are promising. Wheat
looks well, but some affected by the midge.
AN ENGLISH PAPER says: Edward Lloyd, Esq.,
of Brytisilio, Llangollen,ommitted suicide last
week by shooting himself with a revolver, in which
were two bullets, The rapid depression in the prices
of the Confederate loan, in which the deceased had
embarked to a large extent, is said to have led to the
melancholy occurrence.
CHARLES FORBIE3, of PoVd, a year ago grafted
a pear scion into a mounts . gush, and the ash has
borne an abundance of nears this season.
PRAIRIE CHICHUNS.—The Dubuque Times says
that never, since lowa has been settled by the white
man, have prairie chickens been as numerous as at
the present season. In Buchanan and Black Hawk
counties they can be killed with stones and clubs,
and hunting them with guns is next to no sport at
all. So plenty are they that the farmers importune
hunters to try their luck on their grounds and in
some instances they have manifested a willingness
to pay for the killing.
REMEDY FOR, SMALL-Pox.—The surgeon major of
the Royal Horse Guards Blues writes to the London
Times that the root of the pitcher plant is a specific
for this disease. An ounce of the root is sliced and
infused ins quart of water, and allowed to simmer
down to a pint, and given in two tablepOOn doses
every four hours, while the patient is well nourished
with beef tea and arrow-root.
SOLDIERS Ix NEW YoE.K.—Never, since Manhat
tan was an island; never, since New York was a
city ; never, under Indian rule, nor Dutch rule, nor
English rule, nor the rule of the Union, was there
such a large body of soldiers concentrated here as at
the present moment. The rioters are reported to
have information that there are over forty Federal
regiments on this island and the isles immediately
adjacent ; and it is possible that theirinformation is
not very erroneous. Every- park and square, and
every vacant spot where a solaier can pitch his tent,
is occupied. The reveille and tattoo are heard all
over tee city. There are - artillery, cavalry, and
infantry. There are bronzed, battle-worn, and - be.
grimed (veterans from Virginia; regiments which
have carried 'bur banner: in a score of fierce
fights, and have routed the rebels on many a field;
and they seem to be all ready for:any duty. Beside
these, there are not a few of our brave militia regi
ments constantly, under arms. Their faces are
whiter, their clothes newer and cleaner and their
general appearance more, spruce than those of the
others. Both classes are soldierly-looking men-to:
use a much misused term; but the characteristic has
a very different development in each, as may be seen
by comparing them on parade, or on general duty, or
when off duty. Beside all these forces,
there are
sprightly little gunboats darting to and fro in the
harbor, and up and down both rivers, with clean,
tasteful, "all ready" marines, quite prepared for
action. Our garrison, on the whole, is a very pow
erbil one, and seems to enjoy a visit to the metro
polis-very much. The metropolis is well pleased to
see them.—Times.'
THE GULL—The Lowell Advertiser says a private
letter. received in that city from New Orleans, un
der date of August 13, says : " There is to be a
change in this department. Gen. Banks is to com
mand three army corps, and each corps is to have a
major general, Gen. Franklin commanding the 19th,
Gen. Andrews the Corps de Afrique, and the cad
Corps is on the way here."
A COPPERHEAD.—E. 0, Bassett, lecturer, balloon
ist, tonsorial artist,. Sec., returned from a hunting
trip yesterday, bringing with him the head and skin
of a genuine copperhead snake, which he killed on
Mount Lamentation, Berlin. This specimen was
five feet long, and four inches in circumference in'
the largest place. Their bite is deadly poison ; and,
unlike the rattlesnake, it bites without warning.—
Hartford Press.
THE BANNACH CITIES.—MOte or less confusion
must result from the similarity in name of two of
the prineipal mining towns in Idaho Territory.
The first one, in the Grasshopper or Beaver Head
diggings, on the head-waters of the Missouri river,
was named for the Bannock Indians. It is not
Bannock, as most people spell it. One or two letter
writers, whose communications we have seen, spell
it Bannac; but Bannack is, doubtless, the correct
orthography, and the one adopted by the Govern
ment in all official publications wherein the name
of that tribe of Indians appears.
Bannock City is the chief mining town on Boise
river, a branch of Snake, or Lewis fork of the Co
lumbia, in the extreme western portion of Idaho.
This latter city is Bannock, a Scotch name. The
difference is so slight that distinction cannot but be
difficult. -Therefore the name of one or the other
of the points—the last one named we should think- -
ought to be changed to something else. Names sire
not so scarce but that a good one can be readily
found.—Denver (Colorado) paper.

store was a two-story wood building it burnt rapidly,
and before the fire. engines could act RIME the be, our
whole stock of goods, including much combustible ma
terial, and amounting to over f 2,200, were wholly de
otroyed. We had one of your No. 11 Chilled Iron Safes,
Which was in the hottest part of the fire ; antlEt came out
of the fire not in the least insured, except the melting of
of the name, Platesuld paint. The contents inside ware
not affected in the Mast, and we consider the Safe just as
good a protection against fire now as before, and shall
use it hereafter with increased confidence. The look
works asperfectly as before the fire.
