Hermite and | Besancou, at “Paris-Vaugirard. Yhey | succeeded in sending a balloon to the | unprecedented elevation of 16,000 me trea, or abont ten miles. There were ne | people in the balloon, but it carried 4 | variety of self-registering instruments de signed to record the temperature, the at moapheric pressure, etc. The little ba on was s'arted on its lofty trip abont when the sir was remarkably eti and clear. It rose rapidly, and in three quarters of an hour bad attained an elr vation of ten miles, at which height i! remained for several hours. It was there subj-cted to an atmosphe1 © pressure of about one-eight as great as that at the surface of the earth, aud M lermite explains its floating for so long 4 time at aconstant height by supposing tha! he temperature does not vary sensibly with the elevation of the floating body after the atter has attained an altitude where | seven eights of the atmospheric pressure it wcking and where there remains no trace { water vapor But toward 6 o'clock, when with the de- cline of day the temperature began rapid'y to fall, the balloon started back toward the earth, arriving with a gentle motion which did not disturb the instruments it srried, at 7.11, at Chanvres, near Paris Vangirard, from which it had started. The ballooon was visible with a telescope inring the entire time. It shone like the lanet Vernws seen by day By means {a micrometer attached to an astrono nent telescope the apparent diameter of the balloon could edsily have been meas rred, and this would have farnished a menns of calculating its altitude independ- t of the record of the barometer whieh ' carried fhe barometer and thermometer arnished with automatic pens driven by ockwork, by means of which diagrams f the changes of pressure and tempers- ire that the balloon experienced were btained. At the height of about 7 3-4 iiles the thermomet+er marked a tem erature of about 60 degrees Fahrenhei: e'ow z-ro, Then the ink in the regis ering pens of both the thermometer and the barometer became frozen ard the re rds were interrupted. But, as the balloon continued to rise, the nk thawed again, and at the ten-mile leve! be antomatic records were renewed. Ths temperature registered there was only six legrees below zero. The increase of tern erature is ascribe! to the effect of the uu londed sun heating the air in the basket hat comtain-d' the instraments. The low est record of the barometer was 1034 mi!!i petres, or a trifle more than four Inches M. Hermite calls a*tention to the fact that the density of the air at the height of tex uiles, where the balloon remained during most of the afternvon, is less than existing ipon the plains of the moon, on the as enoption that the atmospheric density on he moon is prdportional to the force «f gravity at the surface of that orb. If this is corrgct, then the instruments would have behaved abont the same it M Hermite had been able to place them on he moon as they did when he sent them only ten miles above tne earth.—Yonth's nmpanion : EE sett | For Over Eifty Years.

On Moving the Senate Address Facts and Arguments Worth Noting. Hon. Senator Ferguson, on rising to move the address in reply to the Governor General’s Speech from the Throne, said + I fully appreciate the honor conferied on me by the extension to me on this occasion of that cortesy by which the duty I am about to discharge is usually assigned toa new member. I am sure that in the performance of this duty I will receive, on the ground of any inexperience, the generous consideration of hon. gentle- men. It is true that I have had some ex- perience in another place; yet the greater magnitude of the questions requiring con- sideration here, the contact on this floor with gentlemen (such as I see around me) of great training and experience in public life, together with my entire meer aed eve with the rules and usages of this honorable body, render my task one of considerable difficulty. The sound of a new voice on this floor reminds hon. gentlemen of the removal of one of their number, land- mark in the political history of Prince Edward Island. The Hon. Donald Mont- gomery was probably the oldest legislator in the Dominivn. He entered the House of Asrembly of Prince Edward Isand in 1838, and continued a member of either branch of the Legislature until 1873, when he was called to a seat in this honorable Honse. Although Mr. Montgomery was not a prominent debater, yet his strength of character was amply proved by the dura- | os “lie ; ae | tion andcontinuity of his legislative career, while his sterling honestly and charming personality endeared him to the people of his native Province, as I am sure they did to the members of this honorable House. Amongst the many changes which have | occurred since the prorogation of Parlia- j ment, the departure of the Governor- | General and the arrival of his successor, are the -most important. Ti is not too much to say that in relinquishing the Government of Canada, and returning to a | political career in Great Britain, the Ear! of Derby carries with him the highest esteem and best wishes of the people of Canada from the Atlantic to the Pacific. During his administration of the Govern- ment he fully maintained the high standard which had been set up by his illustrious predecessors, and has left a noovle record for ability, impartiality and devotion to | the interests of the people over whom he was called to preside. Not soon will the | people of Canada forget the earnest efforts of Lord Derby and his amiable consort to promote the moral, educational and material interests of our Dominion. In | the appointment of Lord Aberdeen to the oftice of Governor-General, Her Gracious Majesty has given another proof of her great regard for the interests of Canada. | All the appointments ef Governor- | Generals since Confederation have been made from the front rank of British statesmen. The influence of these appointments has been very great in the past, not only in elevating and directing the tone of public life amongst ue, but in securing for Canada, in the persons of re- tiring Governors, must devoted and in- fluential frien ils in the councils of the Empire. The present Governor-Genera! and the noble lady who shares his joys and responsibility are not strangersto us ’ indeed, we may claim them as belonging | to ourselves, and, as a farmer, I rejoice in the elevation to the Vice-Royalty of Can- | ada of a practical and enthusiastic Cana- dian farmer. It was my good fortune, in the summer of 1892, when on the Pacific coast, to pay a visit to one of the farms of our Governor-General in the beautiful valley of the Okanagan, and I was im- pressed with the greatnesss of the work that Lord Aberdeen was there. doing. I had not at that time seen tke Governor- General, nor was 1 very well acquainted with his political career, but I was struck with the educational character of his work in the introduction of new modes of husbandry in that part of our Domin- ion, and it is a matter of eongratulation to the farmers of Canada that the gentleman whe has been ealled to the very high and j Tesponsible position of Governor-General were | is one who takes snch an active interest in | agriculture. The speech from the throne expresse: satisfaction at the increased trade and con- tinued progress of our Dominion. It is a cause for songratulation at the present time, when the natidns of the earth have | Suffered from a wave of depression, whieh | has been felt with painful effect in the great republic to the south of us, that in this country we have experienced so little of its effects. It is a matter of great pride and satisfaction to Canada that such is the fact. The speech refers to the grent in- crease in the trade of Canada within the last two years, and expresses satisfaction that a large proportion of that increase is due to an extension ef our commerce with Great Britain. While I am proud of any extension of our commerce with the na- tions of the world, I think I speak the sentiment of Canadians generally, when I eay that it is always @ ground of .satisfac- tion when the trade fvilows the flag, and when the increase of our commerce is well maintained with the countries which own allegiance to our Sovereiga the Queen. In this connection I shall quote the follow- ing figures: TRAPPE WITH GREAT BRITAIN.

Increase of trade with United States for the last two years, 7.6 per cent. There are several reasons which, I think, make it satisfactory that thie in- | crease of trade has occurred with Great Britain. An increase of trade strengthens the bonds of union which, lam eure, we are ali desirous should exist between | Great Britain and Canada. There is an- other consideration, that whatever trade we once secure with Great Britain is more to be permanent than the trade that we have with any other country. We do not apprehend any danger from very serious | changes, or from any unfriendly attitude towards us, and for that reason we may count on more perman- ent trade with Great Britain than with other countries. There is another feature of our trade with Great Britain that makes it satisfactory, and that is that the British market generally calle for better products than other countries, and it stimulates the people of Canada to send what they have to spare to the markets of the world in the very best form, in order to command the highest prices. I have often met the state- iment that our tariff discriminates against the trade of Great Britain, that the fiscal policy of Canada imposes a larger duty on British than on United States goods. That I regard aa an incident of all tariffs. On looking over the figures, I find that the very same result occurred under the diff- erent tariffe that we have had since con- federation, and I attribute it to the fact that Great Britain is aot the United States. It has been more less w feature of the different tariffs that we bave had since Confederation to allow raw material for manufacturing purposes to come into the country, if not entirely free, at a much lower duty than manufac tured articles.
