The process may be easily {llns- trated 1n eithor goses or liguidn by sepurating o 1#ids of the same or @ifarent deosities by o dinphragm of auimal tiesuo or thivly-sheod vegoiablo matter. That betug the caze, the gas within the balloon would losa muct of its buoy- ant power, and bo the soonor cexhaasted, by manv hours, thandif it had et off with a fresh supply of carbusetted bydrogen from tho maws, AT COULY XOT BEACH LAND, While there 18uo donbt that such a fresh stpply wouid have sutticed 1o carry tho bulivun ovor tho Inke (unlcss it previous)y mot tho storm) nud far into tho piveries of ichigan, as has beon suvgosted by wovoral, it doce not ecem hikoly that tho balicon, s it loft Chicago, was able to carty tho voyagers over that longtheddd track; and that fact would seom to lisve been urder- stood very well Ly Donaldson when ko insisted upon carrying only ons compamon, inxend of throwing ouv an equal weiglit of tho saud car- ricd as ballast.
