Higher and higher went the balloon, amid the un restrained admiration and enthusiasm of the people. When he had reached an altitude cf nearly half a mile, dense smoke was seen issuing from the balloon, curling toward the blue skies, when, horror of horrors! the balloon was discovered to.be on fire, as some thought it was before it ascended. Ton ues of red flame would pierce through mid dart from its sides. She was soon en- veloyed in smoke and flame, and instantly collapsed. The scene now beggared des cription. Down, with the velocity of the eaglet stretched upon the wing, down cam* the seronaut in a ball of fire and smoke. The sight was sickening and painful. The shouts ot enthusiasm Were changed into wild wails of despair. Every cheek was blanched with terror. Women shrieked and screamed and feinted away; children uttered piercing cries, and ran to and fro; old men, in groaus and stifled sobs, turned away their gaze, only to look again and find the terrible reality all too rad; horses champed their bits, snapped their reins and ran riderless and uupursued in all directions; men on horses galloped with the speed of Mamelukes to the spot where the man was failing.

The Insurance building on the corner of Clayton street and College Avenue, is rapid ly approaching completion. The walls are up, the window and door facings and oroa* ments are in and the mansard roof is almost finished. The vault of this edifice is a very substantial one and the “double security” door is massive and burglar proof. This building is iu a conspicuous place and will show off very handsomely when finished. It is 1 o be occupied by the Southern Mutual Insurance Company; Mr. W. \V. Thomas is the architect.

Taking the dealer by the arm, Ashtabula led him through the stable, out of the back door, and round the corner of a blacksmith shop, Then he set down on a box, took out his knife, pried off a sliver from the box and ays he: “Phil, I understand you've got a cow to sell. Sit down.” Philo looked at him a minute, then said, very quietly: “Oh, you beard I had a cow to sell, eh ?” “ Yes,” responded Ashtabula, “ait down and talk it over.” Philo looked at him a minute; then he said, “Conte here, Johnson.” Johnson came^tnd his companion took him bv the coat sleeve and started into the stmt He went down to where that six-story unfin* ished building stands, between Dearborn and State, and crawling through the boards that are nailed over the door, led Ashtabula up five flights of stairs, at the imminent risk of breaking his neck. Puffing and blowing, they reached the top, and Philo led the way over the piles of rough lumber, to the ex treme east end of the building. Then, after stopping to take breath, he put his mouth (lose to Ashtabula’s ear, and softly whis pered, " I’ve sold her.” It has been nearly a week since that oc currence, and Mr. Johnson is still full of wrath; but a large circle of his acquaintances declare that Philo Martiuberger deserves a medal, and shall have one.

"Speaking of Dr. u ’a address, and a reference made to Gen. Johnston, he brings ont one of the most remarkable features iu his military career: “ Carried away by the enthusiasm caus ed by the mighty surroundings, Dr. Hoge made his most eloquent utterances extem poraneously, and they do not appear in his published speech. He paid a most glow ing tribute to Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, the greatest of living sclaiers, whose sings ular fortune it was always to encounter vastly superior forces, and therefore to be always retreating; but his retreats gave no confidence to his enemies and demoral ized not one whit his own devoted follows era. The cheer that greeted this outburst of Dr. Hoge was as hearty and spontaneous from the tens of thousands of listening soldiers as from the eloquent orator himself. Gen. Johnston was much affected by this honest tribute of love, confidence and ad miration, and came forward'and bowed his acknowledgement.” Wc have advices from France, announc ing the death of Mona C. Berger, who died at his native place, the town of Thoissey, Fra :ce, fifty miles from Lyons, on the 12th inst., at the age of 57. Unquestionably, M. Berger was the greatest and most skill ful billiard expert the world ever saw. M. Berger has led an eventful life. In his youth he was passionately fond ol ringing, possessed of a superior tenor voice, and a proficient in most all instrumental muric. tie at one time fully decided to study for the stage, but for some reason hechongtxlhis mind. ‘ Iu 1850 he made his debut as a billiard expert, at Lyons; he there met and defeated a celebrated French expert by the name of Koutnan. The wonderful skill he displayed became known through out France, and his reputation as the best billiard player in all Franco was at once es tablished. He then traveled all over En- rope, giving exhibitions to enthusiast c au dience*. After this, he settled in Paris, opening a cafe on the Pa ais Royal, and re mained there for some yeara. Our Albert Garnicr’s father purchased this cafe from him, and employed Berger as a professor of the game. Tins continued but a short time, when he re-purchased the cafe. But a short time idler this, in I860, he came to this country, making his head-quarters in this city. He traveled all over the United States, coining money at his exhibitions. He returned to Paris in 1861, taking with him over tit,000 in gold, the net profits of his American trip. He shortly after opened a magnificent cafe in Lyons, the finest in that city, called the Nineteenth Century, plaining sixteen billiard tables. He ^*‘•<1 after this until his death.

[From the London Spectator.] There never was a delusion with less ev idence for it, exeept a permanent impression among mankind, which is often the result, not of accumulated experience, but of an ever-renewing discontent with the actual state of things. There is not the slightest evidence anywhere that man was ever big ger, stronger, swifter or more enduring under the same conditions of food and cli mate than he is now. As to bigness, the evidence is positive. Modem Egyptians are as big as the mom mies who were conquerors in their day, and modem Englishmen are bigger.

This is pretty good evidence that the Grebos are bent on re pudiating the deed of cession of Cape r«mas lands, made in 1784 by the three negro kings, Parma, Weak Boleo and Baphro. T.io story of tho defeat may, however, be a pnt-up job to further the plans of the administration at Washington, set forth iu that city, to send a man-ol-war to bolster up the Liberian government If the story is true, it will doubtless throw cold water on the regular expedition which leaves Boston this mouth for Liberia.

According to the Georgian, the students are required to swear that they don’t pay more than $20 a month each, for board. We wonder that this regulation was never thought of before, for it stands to rea-, son—when you comb to reflect over it—that a young man who is extravagant enough to pay $2175 for board per munth, is on the demoition road to ruin aud ought to bo ex pelled.

Hence, it u posy to understand any ffisturbance whatever In- the melted below would probably cause some wave-]ike movement, or vibratoiy action in the rocky strata of this thin crust. The causes of such disturbances are probably of several kipds —such As the infiltration of water through cracks, forming vast volnmqs of imprisoned steam of enormous tension, which, would necessarily . seek to escape through some vent, producing volcanic explosions tod eruptions. The gradual cooling down of the earth itself would cause disturbances by the decreased size of the great interior mass, and the increase of the crust of crytaliization oi iviously melted matter. Thus there would produced a tendency of the crust to wrin kle up, and this would cauto a gradual in creasing tension oil the rode strata, which at times would give way at the weaker places; the noises of the cracking rocks would sound like the rolling of wheels over the pavements, or like the rambling of distant thunder, ac companied with n vibration of verthmF jar ring. Again, should the atmosphere be con siderably lessened in height over an extended area, indicated by what is caHeda low bar ometer, the decretoedpressure OWfrsOch sur face might cause an upward tendency ih tiie liquid mass below ; thus great storms are hot' uufrequently accompanied with earthquakes. The electrical and magnetical forces of the earth itself, or 1 in connection with those tyexploshms in the sun, which cauto a powerful disturbance of these forces in , the earth, may {.« baps be at times effictont caOse* for perturbations to the forces which hold the crust to equilibrium.

Sounds are for better coodpvtod by rocky masse* than by tbeair, and travel much greater distances.
