Havaxa, Juno 29, 1876, The Director General of Finances publishes officially to-day in the Gaceta that the island government h: made the necessary arrangements with the Banco Es, afol, of this city, in regard to tho selling of the drafts on the Treasury at Madrid for $50,000 every day, in gold, to be used for covering the deficiency in tho Island Treasary. LISELY TO BR SWAMPED, The demands on, the treasury are much heavicr than the collections which can be made from taxes, duties, &c., and it is impossible to increase the present high rate of taxation, many p!anters being unable to pay the taxes now imposed. HOW THEY MAY REOOVER. The government will issue tho drafts, the Island Treasurer and Captain General will sign them, and the Spanish Bank will indorse them. These bills of ex- change will be drawn according to the necessities of the island exchequer, and drafis will be made payable in Madria in gold, silver or bank notes. ‘THR SITUATION IN THE FIELD, Much difference of opinion exists among the people as to the actual state of the insurre@tiop, The rainy season and conclusion of the sugar harvest have put a stop to the burning of estates. The insurgents aro said to be very short of ammunition and other necessities, which mgkes many Spaniards believe that the tnsur- rection will quietly die out ere long. People who claim to judge impartially are content to await the turn of events without venturing any opinion. It is most probable that this sammer’s campaign ‘will be quiet, and devold of any special effort or move- ment on the part of the contending factions, the same as informer years, because neither party is able to move rapidly or successfully.

CanpoxpaLe, Pa, June 27, 1876. The lower coal field, since the partial suspension of operations in the mines, has been the scene of much lawlessness, and the roign of terror is extending to this section. Riots are becoming of almost daily oc- currence. On Friday there was a deadly mélée in this city, in which eight men were stabbed, one fatally. Fires, of unmistakable incendiary origin, occur almost daily in this region, A coal breaker near Scranton was burned in thé latier part of last week. A man named ’Brien was murdered in the lower part of the county jew days since. He had some time ago revealed @ plot of t Molly Maguires to kill Constable Burns, and his murder was, no doubt, a result of that. George Cook's body, fearfally muti- lated, was found floating in Carey's Pond, near Scots- vilie, on Friday, He had also veen a marked man by the Moilies, A gang of men attacked Joseph Newman 1 Lower Lackawanna and pounded him to death with ciubs. The reports from Carbon. Schuylkilland Lebigh counties are to the effect that great lawlessness exists there. Jonah Reece and Jovn Thomas have been Jodged 1m jail at Mauch Chunk tor the killing of a young man named Carr at Conldaie iast April. The trial of Alexander Campbe!) for the murder of mine boss Johu P. Jones ts also in progress at tbat place, and Scboylkil county bas another murder trial op her hands, Judge Dreher baving sent the murderer of Langdon to that county for trial. The destitution that prevails among the miners increases daily and a crisis of some kind imust be reached soou. The coal and transportation companies bave decided to continue the stoppage for an indefinite period and the miners aro open their expression: hatred to the companies. It was rumored here last t that the authorities of of a viovent labor disturbance that requested Governor Harirantt to be in readiness to forward mili- tary to that city at the first notice There never before was sich a feeling of ILLNESS OF MRS.

THE LEGISLATIVE DEADLOCK—ITS SPECIAL IM- PORTANCE UNDER LAWS YFORBIDDING TUE USE OF MONEY BEFORE APPROPRIATIONS— PROBABLE SOLUTION OF THE DIFFICULTY TO- par. The present deadlock on the appropriation bills is Bot uaprecedented. The houses havo disagreed before now, and have pushed their disagreement so far as to absoiutely sacrifice important bills, Some years ago the Sundry Civil bill, one of the most important, in- cluding the appropriation for lighthouses and other equally necessary objects, was entirely Jost. At that time, however, in accord- ance with an old custam, the government Went on, on credit, and the loss of the bill made no difference, it being taken up and passed at the next session, Since then, however, the republicans have passed two important laws intended to prevent sbuses which grew up under so loose a system. One of these laws commands tbat all surplus moneys shall be turned tmto the Treasury at the close of the year, and that ap. Propriations stall not be changed or deviated from their specific objects; and the other absolutely forbids the expenditure of money unless it has been previously granted by Congress Under these acts, if an Appro- priation bill docs not become a law, no money can be spentand no credit opened by the government, no matter how urgent the necessity, Henoe the unusuay importance of the present deadlock, There is no claim on the part of either House that the other is excteding its constitutional rights in ‘te course on the appropriation bills. The House hus, as is its right, originated the bills; the Senate has, as is its right, proposed amendments. The Senate claims, however, that under color of bills (o raise reve- nue the House. has attempted to change laws other than revenue laws; but this is a minor point in the discussion, Some years ago there wasa prolonged discussion between the two houses on an atiompt by the Senate to originate a Tevenue measure, that body proposing to discontinue the income tax. Committees of both houses mado elaborate reporta on the question, which very fully discussed the mght of the House to exclusively ort ginate all measures affecting the revenue and all ap- propriations of money. But this question does not en- ter into the present controversy, iu which the Senate ‘s simply resisting the attempt of the House to de- crease the expenses, its objection being to certain details, chiefly the pay of government clerks and other subordinate officers and thé@number to be em- ployed. The Conference Committee on the Legislative bill has been in session the whole eveniug, and at midnight ‘there was no agreement Tho Naval bill has been agreed on and passed, Tho Post Office conference will algo agree, The others, including the Army biil, the Legislative and Executive, the Consular and Diplo- matic, the Sundry Civil, River and Harbor and others, Temain the subjects of disagreement. The Senate to-day adopted a joint resolution continu- ing the approprations from last year, for the most important bilis, for a period not execeding thirty days. ‘This was sent to the House, which did not act on it, and will not, as the House will claim the right to originate revenue bills; but it will, if the necessity exists, frame such a measure of its own, and send it to the Senate. This will havo to be done to-morrow. The new fiscal year begins on Saturday, the Ist of July, whether at twelve noon, or atthe previous midnight, is an open question, The, legislative day beging at noon. Thus, tne last day of a Congress is the 34 of March, which is heid to end on the 4th at noon. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Wasnisctos, June 20, 1876 POWDER TO BR REMOVED FROM NEW YORK HARBOR.

Condon by Great Britain, bas been brought, so faras Congress is concerned, to a conclusion, Tho following joint resolution, reported by Mr. Conkling, went to the President to-day for signature:— Whereas Edward D.

SCHEPP’S AEROMAUTS DROP MANNA LIKE FROM ON HIGH—THEIR BALLOON BULSTS IN THE MIDST OF A THUNDER CLOUD—A TERRIFIC DESCENT. PurLaperuta, June 29, 1876. Yesterday’s Hegaup contained an account of ap ascension ‘rom the Exhibition grounds at Philadelphia, on Wednesday, by Professor Coleman and Mr. P. J. King, in the “manna balloon’ owned by Mr. Schepp, who used this means of bringing belore the public bis newly invented food preparation, proposing to drop it, like the manna of old, from on high. The aeronauts went up ina storm, and while in midair the balloon burst, Fortunately neither of them were killed, al- though both were injured, The following account of the trip was written by Professor Coleman for the Heraup:— PROVESSOR COLEMAN'S ACCOUNT. Tt was the intention to ascend between six‘and seven o'clock and atterapt a voyage to New York, Prior to this some captive ascensious were to be made. Shortly after four P. M. a thunder storm coming up, baste was made to make, if possible, at lenst one captive ascen- sion belore the final one. While about 300 feet high the wind, which preceded the rain, struck the balloon, aad it began to surge upon the rope quite strong. The storm, which rese:nbied a large letter U, way already closing ina semicircle from north by east to south- west. From somo cause the balloon seemed to be con- stantly weakening, the valve cord was clear, and an occasional bag of ballast was necessary to keep the balloon above flagstaffs and other obstructions. We soon came to the conclusion that this would not do, *and motioned that tho rope should be cut Considera, ble delay occurred before this was done, during which time two attempts were made to get usto theground, as we had not on board our carrier pigeons, or any other appliances beyond tho grapnel. A fine pair of Antwerps had been loaned us through the courtesy of Mr. Weatherby, the brocder, but they were not des- tined to bear us company, WHEN THR ROPER WAS FINALLY CUT and wo had begun to move off several parties in the street, who imagined she had broken loose, grasped hold of the rope, and we were describing the arc ofa circle toward the observatory, upon the Main Exnibi- tlou Building, when we cust loose whe rope, and gradu- ally rose clear of tho building by at least 100 feet. The motion of the balloon was very steady and regular at this time, and the notion that she was steadily losing power slowly passed [rom our minds, Despito the rushiug aud roaring of the approaching storm we passed out by our parachutes samples of tho Schepps manuva. By the Ume we were over the basin in the Ext Park we found ourselves in an eday, whero the approach of the storm coutd be plainly perceived to be gaining upon us The gas mm the balloon by a glouce into the neck was geen to be getting milky. A hazy appearance in tbo immediately adjoining atmosphere, accompanied with fitful gusts of wind gave aswaying motion to the balloon and served to admonish us (hat we bad better go down and go betore it, or go up above it and let it s under, While we were considering this matter we ‘found ourselves dropping rapidly. We allowed this to continue with the expectation of holding up as we ap- proached the denser atmosphere near the surlace, but in this we were digappointed, as our downward movo- ment did not seem to diminish, Some ballast was thrown out and we vegan to check up a little At about 1,000 ‘eet from the surface a littie more was thrown out, the angle of our descent was carrying us upon # lot west of Broad, near Monument Cemetery, but as our downward movement waa constantly de- creasing we knew that any more ballast would make us rise again. GRETING READY FOR A GENTLE BUMP, We greetou terra firma with a little love pat and rose nicely again. A crowd of men and boys, open armed, were rushing to receive us, but were disap- pointed to find us looking down upon them from a sate distance of 500 or 600 fee. ho storm was now put only up to us but abead ot us, and at the rate we were moving seemed to be likely to encompass us. Rain was patter.ng upon tho balloon, and the prospect of again coming to ground by this additional weight in- duced us to concinde to get above the siorm it possi- bie. Rising through a snow storm with a cool stream of water running éown our backs from the neck of the balloon, the admonition to keep cool was entirely 1n- apropos. We soon plunged into storm cloud, and were brilliantly received with a salute of electrical pyrotechnics. Although w perceive by a paper hang upon the concentrating ag that we wore Tising, the thick clou veloped us spon every sidc. Soon we could see itl glimmer of ight, and grandly we rose o caldron vf boiling and bubbling clouds. Now we were ail right, only the gas was dis- ’ charging itselt {rom expansion an A BUZZING IN THE EARS like a bee hive told us we were ‘well up in the world.”’ While we were floating bere, watching the pot boil below us, deeming ourselves rately above the storm, a motion like an inverted whirlwind grasped us in its embrace, and, amid a swaying of the basket, which brought us momentarily to our knees, we were precipitated ito the vortex of the storm—just tho piace we wished to avoid, Down we went, as if the bottom had dropped out of things in govern! id" then up again, as it some one had us under the js and was giving usalit The basket took a circular motion and we wero “rocked in the cradle of the deep” with a vengeance. Three times we were thrown up and down. Overlooking our obalinst, avd _ be! satistiod with tho muster, wo began to feel that after all wo might be able to make a bold push toward Gotham yet, SOMETHING WRONG, Bag in hand, we were awaiting the lifting process amid flashes of lightning, when one flash, brighter than the rest, and blinding im ite nearness, cracked about ourears. Mr. Kiag, my companion, exclaimed, “Weare struck!’’ The reply, “That can’t be,” was hardly out of mouth before an unusual lurch tntimated some- hips wrong Looking up at.the indistinct and hazy mass overhead, the muslin was plainly to be ing itself up and the wind rushed past us lik It was plainly to be seen we were “on a bust,” so thoughts of New York melted out of mind and visions of Jersey sand and pines took their place. In not neeaful to explain, we cut the ropes upon our extra ballast bag and sat it up ready for a aamp to chango our apgle of descent if necessary... Swinging and gyrativg in @ most exciting manner, tho wind moaning through the network, we came out of the cloud, to our astomish- ment, west of the Delaware. When we entered the clougws and rose above them we must havo made a detour to the wi rd as described a halt circle, a8 wpen we ont of the cloud into sight wo expected to sce Haddon- field to-the-southeast, insiead of which we saw the Delaware tothe east or almost under us. Out went th ‘tra bailast bag and all otver ballast articles; still, from the time we left the cloud until we struc ground could nut have been more than two minutes, A perfect gale was raging at the time, and when we struck the loose muslin wonld bavo tailen dead to the ground but for the wind, which caught 1, surg- ing it along until i tautened the rigging and gave as a jerk of about sixty feet before it settled down against a stable. When it struck I called out to Mr. King, “Stick to ber.” ‘You bet,” was hia laconic, rather than classic reply, and th basket came up agai panel of the low board fence, bringing bis head against one of the boards and knock- ing it off as neatly as it a sledge had dealt the biow. A crowd, despite the pouring rain, gathered around, overzealous to render assistance, and son the bal- loon was rolled up, net and all, and wagoned under cover. WHEN WE UNROLLED THE BALLOON in the morning we found the neck neatly and tightly ee up near the valve Mr. King complained tnat hip hart him. As for mysolt Lescaped with one trifling cut from a bottle broken in the bask@t by the fail and a few scratches. That the balloon, trom somo cause, was losing power gradually trom the first Lam satisfied, as is my fellow voyager. That it was struck by lgbining I cannot believe. The tact is, that immediately after tho closest and most vivid flash it suddenty settled, but tbat the lightning produced the Collapse can hardly be credited, ‘he balloon was eurg- ing violentiy at the time, so much so that. we wero upon our knees morethan baifthe time. It must bave been balf an hour from the time we left the Globe Hotei until we settied down wear Broad street, and we were in the storm cloud fully that length of time. “ON OUR PERT." The crowd who gathered at our descent expected to seo us dead, we were falling a such a rapid rate, but matead wo Were at once upon our fect and busy getting tho wreck together. Several inquiries were made as to where the bodies were carried, and attwo A. M. a friend of Mr. King came !o a@ carriage, expecting to “view his corpse; but, as King remarked, “he found a lively one.”” The frost formed upon the valve cord and around the neck of the balloon in thick crystals, The air be- came cold, and, with the wet ¢lothing, soon a set of teoth wero chattering lively. UNION SQUARE THEATRE. An appreciative audience assembled last evening at the Union Square Theatre to sco the Vokes Family in their laughable extravaganza entitied, ‘Fun in & Fog.”’ The tedious commedietia of 1 ‘Post Boy” occupied the first part of the evening’: tertainment, and was chiefly noticeable last night for the tendency of the artists to laugh at each othor, This feature was explained in tho last scene by the production of a live baby, the youngest koown pertormer on the etage, and the infant phenomenon behaved eh dospite the reception it received.
