Yesterday, Bruin Flenniken Esq. unlerwent a successful surgical opera tion, tie excision of an exorescense be.. tween his lip and gum. ie bore the pain without a groan, but the applica tion of caustic caused him to lick his chops vigo rouily. Dr. Lumpkin con. ducted the opcratiun quite successful ly. 'There will bec a grand asconsion of thrre blloons on Wednesday at 6 o'clock, fron Billoon Squaro. The band arc practising, lup in a balloon" for the occasion. Aci;. WXinsboro is much interested in the problem of aerial navigation. As anuounced, Prof. Dannenburg has been making a ocries of interesting experiments in aeronauties, in order to insuro suxccess in his contemplated voyage to the il oon via Congo Hall and the North Pole. The desidoratum has heretofore been to construct an air-ship that will not ignite before leaving the ground. This has been obtained. Thursday th'e Professor received a balloon per expross from Baltimoro, fabricated from the finest material, modeled after the "Graph ie," ind embelIshed with "full length busts" of Gen. Grant and the lMan in the Macmm. The arrival of this paragon of perfection caused in tense interest among all classes, and the smnall boys fairly hankered "to see that baillaoon go upl.>' We iothme dimensions of this wonder in the F~rench metrical system, as the En. glishi scale is not sufliciently refined and delicately graduated to measure it accurately.

At the~designa te d hour all the dec. votoes of science congregated at "Balloon Sqgure" to witness thme as Cension. Conspicnous among these w~as Capt. Joeems Mac, who hand doffed his nether integumnents for the occa sion, and whose flowing dragery, as it flapped lazily in the breeze against his symmetrically proportioned ebon pedestals, suggested mingled t houghits of thme ble.ssings of soap and the glo. rious results of the fifteenth aumend. mont. (This is an~ episode.) Everything was ready. The gnys were loosened. The ballooni, liiko a cagedl bird, panmting for its native' ai r fluttered for ain instant.

Then tliey returned to their work, wiser'if not sadder men. T wo colored individuals on their way fromi town, considerably elevated by copious draught s of unt amed ben. zine, saw the balloon. They pro. maoumnced it "a sign in the olem onts." T1he ara.insa of the band they mistook for Gabriel's trumpet summoning them to judgmeni. One dropped on hi; nmarrow-bones and began to shout, "Nowv I lay me down to sleep,'" amnd chattered one eye tooth, two in cisors and four molars down hiR throat. The other broke ofr a f,11 speed and ran until, from the corn bined effects of fright, bad liquor, perspiration and. hpeo, ho fell in an alnost molted condition. Ila was brought to town in a wheelbarrow, pihood on ice, and bad the pores of his skin olos'd with'pjstor of Paris to prevent furth'ir exudation.
