Th ng statement was . made me by t! n servant. About half past one o'clock on Sun'day afternoon, the 5th inst., I was waiting at the table on the ladies in the dining room, and had just been out of the room, when on my return, Mrs. R. said ‘run out, there is a balloon in the garden ;’ and she pointed it out to me through the window. I ran out and saw asmall balloon about two feet hich, and of the usual shape of air balloons. Before I could get to it, it began to rise again, and floated along just ont of my reach for a few yards, but I jumped up and caught at a card which was hanging by a string from the balloon, and thus obtained posses sion of it. The balloon was of a dingy red and white color, and the card was about the size of a moderate sized envelope. The card bore this inseripi tion—* Erebus 112 IW. Long—71 deg. the spinning wheel.

It seems that the Secretary of the Admiralty in a letter to one of the ‘evening papers repudiates the idea of iit being a Government balloon, but . the opinion of Capt. Beechy, is differlent, according to the statements made by him to Mrs. Russell and her daugh . ter. . . Mrs. Russell corroborates the statement of her servant, Edmunds, in all the main points; and further, she states that she was certainly told, ei' ther by Capt. Beechy or the other officer of the Admiralty, she thinks it was the former, that the balloon was a Governmont balloon, similar to what had been sent out in the Aretic vesTHE HAPPINESS OF HOME, How many of those around us in . this land of golden dreams ~-separated iby distance, waves and mountains, ifrom all they hold dear on earth— . know well how to appreciate the senitiment contained in the following ex. tract ! i for, unloved, and almost despised by all with whom we associate, yet we . { know there is one whe Though like ourselves, os unceasing. they are lonely, unguarded by the hand to which they have been accus. tomed to look foe protection, and un. nided by his counsels, still she waits . patiently the tardy, but certain procress of time that may bring the return of him whose loss she mourns. “Do not speak to me of the felicity of the honey moon. J: is but the cooing of doves. No, we must walk along thorny paths, penetrate together the most hidden recesses of life; live together in pleasure and pain, in joy and in sorrow; must forgive and be forgiven; andafterward love better and love more, And as time goes on, something marvellous occurs; we become lovely to each other, although wrinkles furrow the cheek and forehead; and we become more youthful, though we add from year to year Phen no longer have worldly troubles, misfortunes and failings, any power to dim the sun of our happiness, for it radiates from the eye and the heart ; and when our earthly existence draws indeed that our eternal. And to its close, we feel life and our love are this supernatural feeling is quite natural after all, for the deeper and the nore inwardly we penetrate into life, he more it opens in its depth of eternal beauty.” Though here we are uncared . e devotion is} . process of digestion should go on so lregularly as it does. Nothing is done . for the restoration of this woman. She jis now about 40 years old, and during her confinement has seen her husband die in the same room occupied by her. Is not her case a peculiar one.——Lastport Sentinel. Curiosities. of Water.-—Nor is hails stone less soluble in earth than in air. . Placed under a bell-glass with twice its weight of lime, it gradually melts and disappears ; and there remain four parts, instead of three, ot perfectly dry earth under the glass. Of a plas ter of Paris statue, weighing five pounds, more than one good pound is solidified water Even the preeious opal is but a mass of flint and water, combined in the proportion of nine grains of the earthy ingredient to one of the fluid. Of an aeve of clay Jand a foot deep, weighing about one thousand two huudred tons, at least four hundred tons are water; and, even of the great mountain chains with which jthe globe is ribbed, many millions of tons are water solidified in earth. Water, indeed, exists around us to an extent, and under conditions which . jescape the notice of cursory observers. . When the dyer buys of the dry salter fone hundred pounds each of alum, . lcarbonate of soda, and soap, he obtains in exchange for his money, no less . than forty-five pounds of water in the first lot, sixty-four pounds in the second, and a variable quantity, some times amounting to seventy-three and . and a half pounds, in the third. Even the transparent air we breathe contains, in ordinary weather, about fivg grains of water diffused through each cubic foot of its bulk, and this rarified water no more wets the air than the solidified water wets the lime or opal in which it is absorbed. — Quarterly Review. Austrian Dominion in Hungary.— Mr. Brace, the Austrian correspondent of the New York Tribune, gives a very interesting sketch of the condi. tion of Hungary since the revolution . of 1848. Everything Hungarian is suppressed-—the national color, costume, music. lleavy taxes were laid on; postal communication, municipal laws, were made common with Austria. If any one will imagine, says Mr. Brace, our whole system of internal goverument, our town meetings, our sudden impulses; but we may suppose that, in fact, he calculates and ‘deliberates suitably to his outward character and demeanor, and to the exigencies of each campaign. An Enormous Tusk was excavated) the other .day in Clermont county, Ohio, by the laborers on the Little Miami Railroad. It was embedded in clean gravel sand, twenty-three feet below the surface of the ground, te feet below the track, and several bur dred yards from the Miami River, an some feet higher than the level of its banks. It was about six feet in length . and six inches in diameter at the base . Phil. Ledger. Melancholy Occurrence.--A__ mos 'melancholy occurrence took placq ‘in Steep Gulch, about half a mile 'below this place, on Tuesday 1 Three Frenchmen, Jean Paul, Foena Paul and Thuall Auguste were cayo teing a hole into the bank of the ad ijoining hill, when about thirty feet of it slid down into the gulch where the were working, killing one, Jean Paul ‘on the spot, and horribly Druising and } mutilating the other two. A huge . pile of rocks fell down with the dirt . which so completely covered up Jew that he was not extrieated till the next . day. Poenan Paul has one of his legs . broken above the knee, and his lower . jaw entirely separated from his uppe . one, being broken in two at the joints . Thuall Auguste is badly hurt in sev jeral places, having his right shoulde . blade shattered, and several of his ribs } broken.

Th ng statement was . made me by t! n servant. About half past one o'clock on Sun'day afternoon, the 5th inst., I was waiting at the table on the ladies in the dining room, and had just been out of the room, when on my return, Mrs. R. said ‘run out, there is a balloon in the garden ;’ and she pointed it out to me through the window. I ran out and saw asmall balloon about two feet hich, and of the usual shape of air balloons. Before I could get to it, it began to rise again, and floated along just ont of my reach for a few yards, but I jumped up and caught at a card which was hanging by a string from the balloon, and thus obtained posses sion of it. The balloon was of a dingy red and white color, and the card was about the size of a moderate sized envelope. The card bore this inseripi tion—* Erebus 112 IW. Long—71 deg. the spinning wheel.

Placed under a bell-glass with twice its weight of lime, it gradually melts and disappears ; and there remain four parts, instead of three, ot perfectly dry earth under the glass. Of a plas ter of Paris statue, weighing five pounds, more than one good pound is solidified water Even the preeious opal is but a mass of flint and water, combined in the proportion of nine grains of the earthy ingredient to one of the fluid. Of an aeve of clay Jand a foot deep, weighing about one thousand two huudred tons, at least four hundred tons are water; and, even of the great mountain chains with which jthe globe is ribbed, many millions of tons are water solidified in earth. Water, indeed, exists around us to an extent, and under conditions which . jescape the notice of cursory observers. . When the dyer buys of the dry salter fone hundred pounds each of alum, . lcarbonate of soda, and soap, he obtains in exchange for his money, no less . than forty-five pounds of water in the first lot, sixty-four pounds in the second, and a variable quantity, some times amounting to seventy-three and . and a half pounds, in the third. Even the transparent air we breathe contains, in ordinary weather, about fivg grains of water diffused through each cubic foot of its bulk, and this rarified water no more wets the air than the solidified water wets the lime or opal in which it is absorbed. — Quarterly Review. Austrian Dominion in Hungary.— Mr. Brace, the Austrian correspondent of the New York Tribune, gives a very interesting sketch of the condi. tion of Hungary since the revolution . of 1848. Everything Hungarian is suppressed-—the national color, costume, music. lleavy taxes were laid on; postal communication, municipal laws, were made common with Austria. If any one will imagine, says Mr. Brace, our whole system of internal goverument, our town meetings, our sudden impulses; but we may suppose that, in fact, he calculates and ‘deliberates suitably to his outward character and demeanor, and to the exigencies of each campaign.
