PATRICK, HENRY.
A Saint In Religioua Matter*, but Dif
ferent In Politic!.
The Virginia Magazine of History
and Biography bus a uumber of let
ters by Boger Atklnaoo, a Virginia
planter, vrho came from Cumberland,
England, about 1750 and settled near
Peteraburg. To his brother-in-law,
Samuel Pleasant of Philadelphia, he
writes In October, 1774, concerning Vir
ginia's re^eutiy appointed sev^u dele
gates to the^drst Philadelphia congress.
The spirit of the lunti la .shrewd, but
obviously not reverential:
"Ye 3d gentleman, Col'o Wuahlngtou,
was bred a soldier? a warrior, & dis
tinguished himself in early lifo before
Si at ye Death of ye uufortunate but
intrepid Braddock. He is a modest
man, but sensible & speaks little? In
action cool, like a Bishop at his prayer.
"The 4tli a real half Quaker, Patrick
Henry, your Brother's man? moderate
& mild & In religious matter a Saint
but ye very Devil In Politicks? a sou
of Thunder? Boan-Krjfes? the Patriotic
Farmer will explain tills? i kuow It la
a*ove your Thumbs. He will shake
ye Senate & Some years ago had like
to have talked Treason In ye House,
in these times a very useful uian, a
notable American, very stern & steady
In his couutr.v's cause & at ye same
time such a fool that 1 verily believe
It w'd puzzle even a king to buy him
off? he's a second Shlppcn? oh, that hf
had the handling of some of our Court
iers? for Instance, was it North or
South? Scotch Kngllsh or Welsh (ye
poor Irish have enough of It in their
owu country) our Patrick w'd certain
ly be very uncivil? he is no Macaroni."
FLOATING IN THE AIR.
The Impression on Ascending In ?
Free Balloon.
One of the first questions which I am
usually asked by persons seeking In
formation about balloons Is, "What Is
the sensation of going up In a balloon?"
writes Captain C. Del''. Chandler, U.
8. A. I will anticipate this same In
quiry of the readers of this article and
state for their Information that In a
free balloou I have not noticed any pe
culiar physical sensation which can be
described. It would be like trying to
describe standing still as a sensation.
The impression on ascending lu u free
balloon Is more an optical Illusion. The
asceut Is so slow and gentle that It
canuot be felt, and one has the Impres
slon that the balloou Is motionless and
the earth gradually dropping away. All
the noises and shouts of the people be
come fainter and die out. As the alti
tude Increases hills and valleys are not
apparent, and the earth seems tint, like
a beautiful colored map, showing cul
tivated fields, forests, etc. v
The greater part of the time a bal
loon Is moving either up or down, but
the motlou Is uot apparent, and It re
quires a statoscope to Indicate whether
the balloon Is ascending or descending.
If a considerable change of altitude is
made In a short time, the difference In
air pressure may be felt on the car
drums, lu descending even quite rap
Idly I have never had any sensation of
falling.? Journal of Military Service.
The Bath of the Future.
"The bath of the next century," says
T. Huron Russell In his book, "A Hun
dred Years Hence," "will lave the
body speedily with oxygenated water
delivered with a force that will reuder
rubbing unnecessary, and beside It
will stand the drying cupboard, lined
with some quickly moving arrange
ment of soft brushes and fed with a
highly desiccated air, from which, al
most in a moment, the bather will
emerge dried and with a skin gently
stimulated and perhaps electrified, to
clothe himself quickly and pass down
the lift to his breakfast, which he will
eat to the accompaulment of a sum
mary of the morning's news read out
for the benefit of the family or whis
pered Into his ears l?y a talking ma

8t. Peter's In Rome.
From the beginning of the founda
tion to the time when the great church
of St. Peter's In Home could bo said to
be complete three and a half centuries
bad elapsed, eighteen architects had
been employed aud forty-three popes
had reigned. The cost of tbo great
church can never be known with ex
actness. At the end of the seventeenth
century It had cost $50,000,000, with
out Including the sacristy bell, towers,
etc. The last Important work on the
edifice was done by Pope Pius IX., on
the four hundredth anniversary of the
birth of Michelangelo. ? New York

Some of us are not wanting in the ex
perience of serving our friends with all
our hearts and then of seeing them
serve others with all their pocketbooks.
