She mimed Jthe vegetable j kingdom. Dc- Cafton, singh fig out ! another lady, requested her to name I some class ot objects belouging to ! that kingdom. * .Flowers," replied * the L'tcly. Turning to a third lady, lie J asked her to mime a flower. "Tho ! rose," said the third lady. Turning again to my friend, he re- ! quested lier to vo id the contents of ; th : paper in her pocket; on drung j which sae found these words: "The ! Vegetable Kingdom. Flowers. Thc j Rr-se." ? mun ot gre.it literary repu- | luden, being invited toa private, per- I ?ormance oi De Gaston's, #;ent away I incredulous anti disgusted, that gen? tlemen should league themselves with ? a charlatan. A day or two afterwards, . he received a note from- Do Custon, 1 saying taat he should call upon him j in a day or two. Mr. L-G accordingly got down some rare old ' historian from one of his shelves, sud oinked out about twenty dates of little known historic facts in tho annals of several countries and in remoto ages. He drew up his paper, folded it, put it away in his waistcoat pocket, not showing it to auy one. De Caston arrived next day, and was shown at once to the study "Pray don't disturb yourself." Haid Do Caston; "keep your seat, anti let me place myself here," and drawing a chair to the opposite side of the table, he took a folded paper from his pock? et, and gave it to Mr. Ci-. "Don't open it till I ask" yon to do so," saul Dc Cast-on; and Mr. G-placed it unopened in Ins pucket. ..Flavo you a pack of cards?" <le mancled the .visitor. ..ii > we ver, we can do just as well \ iit, eaivl-3 a.s wiin v.iieui by simply ".Ti. i-* chat we have them; ?vow," .....i.i.-,d. molding out his hand, ; . .xi ?-giae taat I am overing you ? o tc'; oi" c-*rds, ?rom winch you select i'd .jr. " II.?G-feigned to draw ont four cards, and to place them before him on tue. t:-olo. . "Bc -.'cod enough to write on a yo \ per what'cardfi/you Lave chosen, and fold it up as soon as written. " M. G ??? did so. '. 'Yon have chosen' the ace of spades, d?'the king of clubs, the" knave of dia? monds, ?nd the queen of heart*," qui? etly remarked thc wizard, as Mr. G finished folding his paper, those being j tile cards of which M. G-had just I written down the names. I Do Caston tb?m asked M. G-to j J write a number of historical dates on ! ; a piece of paper, fold it up, and hold i it in. his. hand. N : ' "I have my list already," cried M. ! G-, triumphantly. ''Very good," replied Dc ('aston. "Be so kind os t?> open tim {taper 1 gave you on entering your study." I ''Judge of my stupefaction.'' said, : Mr. G-, "when I found that, the i paper he had given me, ?ni coming . into the room, contained an exact dn . plicate of my hst." On another occasion,-a little group : of scientific men, including thc great ' astronomer M. Le Verrier, had us j seiubled privately to witness De Gtte ! ton's wonders. ; "J. do not preferid to any vast ' amount mi science," remarked that j gentleman, "but I have discovered a I method of calculation which enables ! me to solve any mathematical problem, j no matter how difficult, instantane ; ously." "Nonsense, sir," shouted M. Le Verrier, who is very irrascibie and very rude when out of temper, "the thing is impossible!"' "Try me," returned De Caston, re? questing a great mathematician pre- | sent to propound some very cbffieult | problem in the upper regions of *alge- j bra. The mathematician took out his j pencil and wrote out the terms of i some terrifically abstruse and eomp?- | cate computation, when De Gaston, j placing his paper on the instant be- j tore the mathematician, remarked, j "I think, Monsieur, you will find that j this is tlie correct solution of your ? problem." And correct- it was. . Ex tr? o rill xi a ry Auvent. j Thc following account of a flying j machine is certainly most curious und ! entertaining. It occurs in the corres- ! pondehee bf the Chicago Trill une. and the writer tells his story with edifying j gravity. The experimentalist is in- | troduced as a Mr. David li. ?Smith, of : Minneapolis. Minnesota: This morning, ut ll o'clock, the i hour appointed, we were promptly at j MY. Smith's store, and found him I ready io start. At the door there j stood two teams and wagon*?, one of which contained what I supposed to | be a canvas tent, with poles, ?cc. lu i tho other we took our seats. The party eonsisrod of Mr. Smith and his j clerk, James McLennan, Capt. Cobb ; and myself, Patrick Kiley and Andrew ' Ward, the driver-six in all. Mr. I Smith was enveloped in a.large linen i linster, which quite concealed his per- ; son. During the ride he appeared* rather serious and taciturn. Ia two ? hours we reached a point about twelve ; milt's M est of the city, and there j stopped. Tho country was a rolling j prune, wholly uncultivated, avid with j no traveled road &>r several miles on ! either side?. The eauviis, ?frc, was taken oat ! and spread upon the ground, and 1 ! found, to my amazement, that iustead O? a tent, it was au immense kite, made j of sail cloth, with a strong jointed i frame, lt wat? of the kind known a/, j the house kite, hexagon in form; and i when put together was twenty-live feet in length, thus containing an area oi over five hundred square loot, les cord wa-j about the thickness of my little finger, but of great strength, having been manufactured to order. Tue tail of the kite was merely a light rope ladder. Mr. Smith now threw '? oix his hueli duster, and I could ? scarcely avoid laughing at his extraor- j chuary appearance. Beneath his timi- j pits, amt extending round his body, ; there was a oopper cylinder, a foot j j wide from top to . bottom, and about I two feet in ili?meter. His ordinary ! clothing had been replaced by a tight I fitting ?nit of ribbed cloth, made ap I parently all in one piece.- Attached ! to his arms and body were a pair of webbed wings of strong material, with , a light lramc-work of steel. When . at rest, thes? wings, (if I may st) call them,) hung loosely about lum like a' closed umbrella. * * * * * * I made these observations hastily, i for Mr. Smith ut once placed himseii ! upon the rope ladder^ and requested : tuat the kite, which had been set up i on a slight elevation, should be raised. , Tue Captai* and myself called out to? gether unit ho had forgotten his para cunte; butne replied impatiently %h?Jb ; bo did 1 not need it. Wo declared, j however, that we would not permit so j fool-liordy an experiment nuless thi.^ i precaution were taken, ana after a little purley he consented. A steady .I? ? fi T .- )- j i pf y breeze was now blowing* from the South-east; Kiley and Ward took their place iuthefwagon by the coil of rope; McLennan acted as driver, while Captain Cobb and I renlained on the ground as spectators. The horses were started into a gallop, and the kite rose slowly and heavily, but steadily upward. I glanced at my Avatch-it Was twenty minutes post 2 o'clock. The kite, continued to rise, with a slight swaying motion, higher and higher. It seemed as though the daring aeronaut must become sick and dizzy nt his lofty height. Suddenly 1 was startled by an exclamation from ! my companion, and noticed a derk i object tuting from the kite aud flutter? ing slowly downward, lt was the parachute which Smith had thrown away. Th? pei>>ons in the wagon, which was now a half a mile distant, did not seeiu to notice this occurrence. Ob? viously Smith's situation, if hisiinven tiou should fail, hud become one of appalling danger; . ince it is ahnest impossible to Urmg a kite to the ground without a violent and jerking lateral motion. It seemed oqaaliy perilous to stop or to proceed. Trem? bling with anxiety, we watched with straining eyes his fast receding form. Ibadan excellent tiold gloss, which gave nie a perfect view of his every motion. And now we noticed thar both the bladder's and the wings had begun to expand. Higher ht- rose, but we could detect in his attitude no .sign of doubt or trepidation.- Tin bladders soon became distenucd so us to almost ludo the man from view, lie h:ul now reached an elevation, as near as I could judge, of l,2tfU to L?W? feet, or a quarter of a mile. He nov. de? tached his arms from the Judder, his feet remaining upon it. and waved his whigs upward and downward, as ii' to try them. Fol" an instant be rfteo-1 thus, and then, relinquishing all -sup? port, he sprang oil into the inn pty air. For a moment my heart stood sti".i. I held my breath, expec ting t ? soe him dashed to the earth: But he did not fall; he did not even seem to tend downward. His wings played with great swiftness, and he floated in the Jiori. ..! position with apparent ease. Again. 1 glanced at my watch. The hand pointed to twenty-seven minutes before three. The kite, deprived of its ballast, had sunk to the ground. ? Watching narrowly, it was ?vident that Mr. Smith was slowly moving forward It appeared to me that the bladder slightly contracted and ?px panded alternately, as one's cln-st does in breathing. Of this I could not feel absolutely certain, since tho appear? ance may have residted irom their fluttering motion; yet the Captain's opinion coincided with my own. Af? ter a few minutes, (which seemed like hours), we perceived that Mr. Smith had l?egtln to descom?. Very gradual? ly this ^as accomplished, aud i-.xaetly at a quarter before three he touched thc ground. We ran toward him and ? ?und that hu was considerably ex? hausted. Ho'responded cheerily, how? ever, to our hearty congratulations. As the wagoo had already returned, it did not biko long to stow away the kite, iV.e.. a-iid we then volumed to the city. I have thu:; given a plain and exact account ol" this most extraordinary oc? currence. I will not offer any specu? lations concerning the ?ature of Mr. .Smith's invention, and, in fact, do not consider myself at liberty to do so. But 1 am greatly mistake n if the name of David K. Smith is not soon fami? liar to the public us one of its greatest benefactors. Any ont can satisfy him? self as io his character and standing in this community, by enquiring of Hon. C. V. Vanderburg, Judge of th? District Court; K. Ii. Bryant, Regis? ter; D. Morgan, Postmaster; Dorillns Morrison, Esq., lumber m.'reliant; Colonel Cyrus Aldrich: Kev. C. C. Sal? ter, Pastor of the Congregational Church; C. L. Freeman, Proprietor of the Necollet House; or of almost any citizen of Minneapolis.
