Telegraph & Messenger. WEDNESDAY MOBNPTO. SEPT. 20. 1871. The FljlncTr»|*w «» **•* of a Tlght-Ropc performer nod Mnslelnn at a Height of Three Ilimdrrd Feet In the air. Correspondence of the Kew York World. lixAPCto, Deles Co., Pa., Sopt. .. One of the most extraordinary and Mmoat incredible exhibitions of bnmao intaopiditynna daring was last Monday, the *Uh ed by the citizens of Ibis pUco. It seemed to me to eqaal if not surpass in tbnlUnR and Mto- fnl interest anything ever attempted by Sam Patch or Blondin in their wildest effort Anm- on theprerioos Wednesday mitt balloon ascension in the ordinary way (the lint balloon ascent of any kind ho had ever made in hislifo), repeated his performance on Monday last, but thlsUme withno basket attached to his balloon nothing whatever, in fact, but a common trapeze. Upon this ho seated himself with the ornatnst coolness and composure, and went float- KiTsway Into space, to the astonishment of the S& Z* -2* “> ter aaoending to a considerable distance he commenced throwing out a number of circu lars which he had attached to a little hoop below the balloon, which in the dear atmosphere appeared like twinkling stars surrounding the bslloon, producing a moot novel and pleasing effect. Hut this was nothing to what followed. At the height of some three hundred feethecommenced balancing himself on bis back on the bar of the trapeze, and going through other fearful evolutions. He then de liberately slid from the bar head downwards, and catching himself by tho feet, remained sus pended for several seconds in that awful posi tion ! Tho appalling sight was one never to be forgotten by those who witnessed it A thrill and a low murmur of horror passed through the immense multitude, who wore looking on with iutensest interest, and many burriod sway from the sight giddy and faint. Tho daring aeronaut, however went through his evolutions success fully, end regaining his seat, went soaring rap idly and steadily upwards. When at tho height of three-quarters of a mile ho had the astound ing nerve to repeat his peiformance, which at so great a distance, could only be clearly visible by the aid of glasses. What mado this asec by the aid of glosses. — — ail the more hazardous is that tho balloon is a very small one, carrying but little ballast, and with nothing but a light anchor attached to the hoop. I am glad to say that tho mronaut completed bis voyage safely, althoagh he once or twice see med to bo in considerable danger. The tra peze struck tho roof of Iloory Connard's resi dence, on .1th street, when Mr. Donaldson made a skillful leap from tho trapeze, and prevented a collision. The balloon then aseended and came down again on tho other Ride of the road in a Sold, and was al>ont striking tho top of a treo, when Mr. Donaldson turned a .somersault on tho trapeze ropo andprevented tho bar from catching in tho treo. There is some talk of our having a repetition of this painful exhibition during our fair next week, if tho authorities do not interfere to prevent iL It really seems to me that they should, and that it is also the duty of the leading press of (he country to denounce such reckless and unnecessary risk of human life for tho mere gratification of morbid excite ment. Old Times. From the l’etcrebuig Progress.! There is an elderly colorod gentleman, s gen tleman in evory sense of tho word, who holds forth as a tonsorial professor in tbo Exchange Hotel, Uicbmond. Lomax Smith is a relic of tho palmy times of Virginia; he regularly shaved Mr. Madison, John Kaudolpb, and Wat kins Leigh; ho was the cnp-liearcr, head-musi cian, punch-OGucocter, and, in fact, tho presid ing genius of the “Old Richmond Dines" in the days when George Mnnford led that raro com mand and had under bis leadership the bluest blood of the Anciont Dominion! Submitting our face tho other morning to the still skillful manipulation of tbo voneraldo Smith, the writer enjoyed heartily the monolo gue with which the Professor interlarded bis “lather and shnvo." “A nico collection of gentlemen, sir," said Lomax, “this convention at Assembly Hall; many eery genteel and ablo persons there, sir. It does mo good to sco again in Virginia the best people coming forward to take part in pol itics.

And Lomax restrappod his razor, turned our head gently, and began again; “And how did they come horo, sir ? Omni busses, hacks? Not they? Private carriages, privato servants; and overy ono hod a square mahogany lioz, with silver mountings; in this were four square bottles trimmed with vines and leaves in gold; one held old pineapple rum, ono brandy, and honey, pe:ich and honey, sir, one sherry, and one Madeira. No whisky—and no drinking at bars. Tho case was in every delegate's room, with tho key pnt away, bni." and here Lomax thoughtfully and suggestively drew his razor through tho palm of an honest hand—“Mrir eomliiui a Is /.new where the key ieus, Sir. Yes, sir! And shaving then was fifty cents. No chango! Thoso were days. Y\ by nothing now is as good as it was, and I can tell tho reason.

Tho practical operation of the Machines can be seen at the PASSENGER SHED of tho Railroad Companios in MACON; also at the Printing and Publishing House of Messrs. J. W. BURKE & CO. We call attention to the following extract from a letter from J. W. Burke, Esq.: Macon, Ga., March 23,1871. Wo have had one of the U. S. Gaslight Comp*- ny’s Machines, in operation! since the 10th of No vember, 1870, and it is perfectly satisfactory to us in its general working and cheapness. Wo paid tho Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last year and the year previous—viz: November, De cember, January and February—$390.56. In using this Machine our gas for tho four corresponding months cost ns 8114—thus saving us in that time $285.56. The light is quite as good as that of the City Gas Company, and has tho advantage of being entirely under our control to use as we please. During the severe weather in December it burned without intermission, not being at all affected by the freeze.
