Ballooning ExTRAORDiNARr.-l2.ach suc ceeding steamer brings accounts of the fool hardy feats of an aeronaut who makes weekly ascents from the Hippodrome, in Paris. This adventurer has made ascents seated upon a po ny, a dunkey, and an ostrich, and his wife has also made an ascent on a pony. At the last ascent of M. Poitevin, of which we have an account, his balloon carried, besides the aero naut, three young women, who were suspended from the car. They had wings affixed to their Moulders, and appeared as fHying in ihe air. Their ascent was hailed with shouts by the immense concourse of persons assembled, but a feeling of terror seemed to predominate at seeing the women suspended in mid-air, with out any thin apparent to support them. After being about an hour in the air, they alighted in sa fety'on a plain near Villejuil. Census of Washington.
