O- D. GRIITFIN. a Cue Where It Was More Reliable Thai a Sailor'. Optic. Mr. N. Chevalier, the well known artist who accompanied the late Duke of Edinburgh on many of his travels, was once going from Dunedin tc Lyttelton, New Zealand, by steamer. Anxious to catch the earliest glimpse of the coast he went on deck at dawn nnd was alarmed to see that the vessel was beading stialght on to the land. Calling tbe officer’s attention to the fact, be was told that It was only a fog bank. The urtfat maintained bis point, but the sei.i .d officer looked and confirmed bis i.mte. Tbe artist tben said: "Well, gentle men, I will back my nrtjst’a eye against your sailor’s eye, ami 1 say that what you mistake for a fog bank Is a low range of bills, aatl there Is a range of mountains appearing above them.” But be was only laughed at. until tbe captain coming on deck found in the growing light that the nrtist was right aud the seamen wrong. The ves sel was out of Its course, aud there was only Just time to avert disaster, The helmsman was dismissed In dis grace aud the course given to the new steersman, but the vessel’s head still poiuted landward—the compass was«)) wrong. The cause was discovered Viter. A commercial traveler had brought ® toot of magnets on board and deposited them In a stern cabin, causing wbat might have been a fatal deflection ot the compass. To return to the question of Inter pretation. tbe artist was dealing with the appearances which his eye tfca* trained to see and his mind to Inter pret. A speck on the horizon might have remained a mere speck to him long after tbe soJlora had Interpreted the speck Into a vessel of definite rig. There can he little doubt (hat tbe trained eye la accompanied by • sort of mental seeing, an Instinct outrun- olng optica.

Glrond de Vlllette. bad as cended la the balloon without cUttlbg the rope which bold It captive to o height of 1.200 feet. Rosters bad much difficulty la obtain ing permission from the king to make on ascent w’ihout being held down by the rope, but consent was ot last ee- Cured, uud on tbe 20th of November, 17S3, everything wus miide ready. Due lug the day the wind and rain were vio lent. aud It was found necessary to postpone die nscent. Tbe best day, tb* 21st. the weather was more favorable, and at 1:30 In tbe afternoon in tbe pres ence of the dnupliln and Ills suit PI- lilt re des Hosiers and the Marquis d'Ar- htudes set out together from the Jar- dins de la Jluct’e upon the first aerial voyage ever attempted and performed. The wind was still very rough and the weather stormy, but In spite of these dlsadvantages the balloon rose rapidly. Having [aissed over Paris and be come five ft-om all fear of getting en- tang eil tuce::g the buildings of the city, the aeronauts- sulTered themselves tc descend considerably until they found themselves- iu u fresh current of air. which bore them In- u southerly direc tion. After proceeding • few mUes farther the Ore was allowed to dle-out, and tin- balloon desevuiled about five miles from Paris. When the aeronauts-returned to 1. - .’.intrnn do la Ninette, they were i etr,I with the utmost enthusiasm by < •• -.- -''milled crowds. Benjamin Frank- -.v.u a witness of the whole spectn- and when nsked what he though: of It he replied. “I have seen a child born which may one day be a man.” , Aerostatics bud advanced to suc-b n degree ’ that ou the 7th of January 1735. Blanchard, u rival of Hosiers, crossed over the channel from Dover to Cain Is. Rosters was spurred on by Blancb ard’s success nnd set to work con structing a balloon which, wben com pleted, be called an neromontgolfler. It consisted of an Immense balloon of hydrogen gas, with a Inrge cylinder placed under It, tbe use of It being tt rarefy tbe oh- without losing gas, When a favorable day had arrived Pllntre for tbe last tline made hlr preparations. He was assisted by a Boulogne \ihyslelan named Htmialu nnd on Juno 15,1785, they stepped Into the basket, the ropes were cast ofT, a no the balloon rose with tho utmost muj esty from tbe earth. When It had risen about 200 feet. It struck a fresh current of air whlcl took It directly toward the sen. It 8001 found another current which raptdlj carried It back agnln. It possibly may have been the desire of the aeronauts to descend to find a more favorable cur rent of air, for while opening the valve to let tbe cold air Into hla cylinder un fortunately a huge rent was made lu the balloon. Tbe consequences 'Wert Immediate and horrible. At that time tbe balloon was 1,700 feet above the surface of tbe earth. A few moments afterward the two aeronauts lay oi, tbe ground dead and horribly mutl lated. Near tbe spot where Ptlatre det R*r siers was burled a monument wa» erected in 1853 to commemorate tbe al most miraculous crossing- ofr tbe sea 1r> Ulaucimrd. upon the, very, Spot ot eartit on which that Intrepid aeronaut dp sccnded.
